The worried Hugh Dilcha went around in circles before returning to the house she rented with Fors. It was a small apartment, but because it was located in the Jowood area, the rent was not cheap.
However, Xio had recently received the remuneration paid to her by "Rister", plus the royalties that Forsi had already received, so they could consider changing to another apartment. But after encountering the "witches" of the Gnosis Society, they gave up.
After having this idea, Forsi didn't go out for a week, lying on the rocking chair in front of the window all day long looking for inspiration.
Forsi, who was lying on the rocking chair in his pajamas, looked at Xio, who had a heavy face. He picked up the book placed aside and waved it. The pages of the book made a "squeaking" sound, which was taken as a greeting. As for the look on Xio's face
With her expression, Forsi said that she was used to it. It was like this every time her friend came back. She would care about him at first, but then gave up.
"Forsi, I have something to tell you."
Forsi, who was about to put down the book and continue to look for inspiration in his dreams, turned his somewhat stiff neck with difficulty, looked at Xio who was sitting on the low stool in front of the fireplace, and waved weakly:
"You go ahead and I'm listening."
Xio looked at the unlit fireplace, folded her arms, and curled up, as if she was waiting for warmth in front of the fireplace in winter. Forsi blinked in confusion, and after realizing that he had indeed seen it correctly, he exerted force on his waist and tried a few times.
I tried to get up several times, but failed.
After turning his body over, Forsi got up from the lounge chair and came to the fireplace. He looked at Xio, sighed, squatted down, and patted her back. The two of them cuddled together in front of the fireplace.
When Forsi felt that her legs were numb, Xio's mood finally improved a little. She stared at Forsi with red eyes, helped her up, and the two of them sat on the sofa.
Forsi bent down, hammered her calf with her right hand, and rubbed her waist with her left hand. After lying at home for a week without exercising, she felt like a machine that was about to expire. She turned to look at Xiu who was returning to normal.
, asked with concern:
"what happened?"
Hugh was silent for a while and then told his life story. His father, who was an earl, was accused of participating in a rebellion and was sentenced to hanging. He was deprived of titles and fiefs. The family members changed their surnames and left their hometown. They left their mother alone.
He and his brother came to Backlund to seek the truth of that year.
Forsi also fell silent. Her father was still there, but he was almost gone, and Xio was burdened with too many things. As a new writer, she could also use her own hair to deduce that Xio's father must be curly.
Got into big trouble.
Xio's voice became a little hoarse, but he continued:
"Do you remember the man who saved us last time?"
Forsi's eyes lit up, and he was confused at the same time:
"Jeffrey List? Does he have anything to do with your family's affairs?"
"Didn't we meet a 'witch' from the Gnosis Society? He said that for our safety, it is best to report to the church first, and then let me choose to join an official force."
"Isn't this great? Are you saying that Mr. List is from some official force and wants to recruit you?" Forsi quickly thought of the identity of the writer.
"No." Xio shook his head, "That would be much better. He meant for me to join MI9 and help him deliver the news." Gu
Forsi's mind burst with inspiration, but when he thought that his friend was the protagonist, he still advised:
"You don't need to pay attention to him at all. You just have a simple transaction relationship. As for what happened last time, you can completely help him with other things. MI9 is not a good place. There are all spies and agents there.
Some of them are extraordinary."
"But I can't refuse." Hugh's face was filled with bitterness as he explained the benefits of joining MI9.
After hearing this, Forsi didn't know what to say. After all, it was hard for her to persuade her as a friend about such matters. She knew Xio and knew that Xio had already made his decision. All she could do was help Xio analyze Riester's motives.
Already.
"He asked you to join MI9 to obtain inside information, but his words show that he knows MI9 very well. That means he is either a hostile force of MI9, such as Intis's external security
General Administration, but his behavior is not worthy of those agents."
Xio nodded. There was no need for an agent from an enemy country to help the enemy country clean up gangs, let alone help the poor people in the East District.
"So, I think this Lister is more likely to be a member of a certain force within Loen. Didn't he say that there are many factions in MI9? Maybe he has no one in MI9, so he placed him there.
You go in." Forsi snapped his fingers, which was a more common-sense guess.
"But he said that MI9 is very strict in vetting its members, and my identity may not be hidden from them." Xio was not very resistant to joining MI9, she just resisted becoming someone else's pawn.
"You can go find that Lister. Since he arranged for you to join MI9, he should be able to solve this kind of problem." Forsi said this with a guilty conscience. She just said that Lister was not in MI9.
people.
Xiu pursed her lips and nodded. She didn't realize this.
Suddenly, she thought of the Gnosis Society again and how interested they were in the Extraordinary people of the "apprentice" path, and asked hurriedly:
"Forsi, that Riester also said that the gnosis will come to you because of your path, saying that they are very interested in a certain surname in this path. And that this path is quite special, you know these
?"
The series of questions knocked Forsi unconscious.
"ah?"
Why does it involve me again? Forsi's eyes widened, but when she thought of Mrs. Anlisa, who led her to the path of extraordinary people, her husband seemed to be from a certain family, and she even mentioned it to herself.
Through the gnosis, there will be extraordinary people who have the same path as yourself.
As for the reason, Forsi has no idea at all. Although she has become a Beyonder for two years, all she knows about this aspect comes from the relics left to her by Mrs. Anlisa.
Seeing Forsi acting like he didn't know anything, Xio sighed and said:
"Then are you still staying at home recently? Wait until I find someone to report it before you come out." The next time you meet Lister, you can ask about this matter. I don't know if he will tell you.
"No problem." This is Forsi's strength. She will have no problem lying like this for a few more months. "Then you decide where to report it."
"Let's go to the Goddess Church." Since List recommended it, Xio didn't plan to change, and she was also a believer in the Goddess.
