"It is my honor to get to know a demigod." Rawls lowered his head deeper.
Judging from Rawls' tone and actions, it seems that he is a little afraid and suspicious of the "immortal" demigod coming to him. However, through Klein's spiritual vision, he found that Rawls's heart was not like his.
External performance.
The color of Rawls's astral body is blue mixed with a little red, which corresponds to calm thinking and a little excitement, rather than the fear and doubt shown in his movements and expressions.
Klein, who was shrouded in gray fog and whose facial features were blurred, cast his gaze on Rawls. It was understandable if he thought calmly. He wanted to figure out the purpose of my arrangement for this step, but why was he excited? Because he could use this matter to figure out the reason.
To my beloved in reality?
"He is about to go to Backlund. As for the follow-up matters, it is up to you to communicate with him." Klein did not talk about this matter too much. His previous words were already somewhat inconsistent with his status as a "fool".
Rawls nodded respectfully and sent his contact information:
"After your beloved arrives in Backlund, you can place a rental advertisement in the Backlund Morning News. The contact person is Jeffrey Lister. At seven o'clock that evening, I will go to the Green Cemetery in the West District wearing a mask.
.”
…
Above the gray mist, inside the majestic palace.
Klein, who was at the top of the long bronze table, took off the citrine bracelet wrapped around his left wrist, looked at the pure citrine, and sighed. If Mr. Azik's trip to Backlund had not been determined through divination, he would not have
There would be no danger, and he would never risk Mr. Azik meeting Mr. "Emperor".
So far, Klein is still a little unsure about the specific identity of Mr. "Emperor" in real life, but he is certain that he has a close official relationship with Loen, and his status is by no means just a mid-level Extraordinary.
But "Emperor" doesn't seem to be of the same mind as the forces behind him, and seems to be plotting something. Otherwise, as an extraordinary person with official background, he would never choose such a representative card - "Emperor".
No matter what, the most difficult stage has passed. After the "Emperor" really sees Mr. Azik, he will never doubt that Mr. "Fool" is just a Sequence 9 Beyonder. A Sequence 4 "Immortal"
Even if the existence you believe in is not the true God, it will not be any worse.
At most, he just thought that Mr. "The Fool" had a good attitude towards the Beloved, which they should have been able to see from the previous Tarot sessions.
After Klein confirmed that there was nothing wrong, he simulated a rapid fall and left the majestic palace. He did not plan to write a letter to inform Mr. Azik now. He would have to wait at least a few days. And before writing the letter, he would again
Perform a divination.
…
West End, Philips Department Store.
This is the most high-end department store in the Loen Kingdom, open only to nobles and wealthy people with memberships.
There are always luxury carriages parked one after another with different badges on them. In addition to being a shopping mecca, it has also become a well-known social place due to strict restrictions on personnel.
In a coffee shop on the second floor, Audrey smiled and communicated briefly with a certain countess or viscountess who occasionally passed by, using different entry points to communicate with different nobles, but the main communication partner was the beige-clad lady in front of her.
The girl in the long dress with ruffled stand-up collar, Forse Wall, the author of "Stormhouse".
After the last literary salon held in Earl Hall's villa, Audrey often met Forsi as a reader. The two of them had met three or four times in five or six days.
Forsi held the bone china cup and looked at the brown tea soup in the cup. The fragrant and beautiful taste spread to her nose along with the white air that drifted out. She took a sip carefully and secretly observed the conversation with a baroness.
Chat Audrey.
Wearing a young off-white long dress with lantern sleeves, her arms that should have been exposed were covered by gauze-like sleeves extending from the elbows, and only a little bit of fair skin could be seen vaguely. The small white gauze cape was taken off.
Finally, a sapphire necklace was worn on the exposed slender goose neck.
Coupled with Audrey's elegant conversation, approachable smile, and decent etiquette, it's no wonder that she is called Backlund's most dazzling gem.
Seeing that the Baroness was praised by Audrey for her husband's outstanding performance in the House of Lords, there was always a smile on her face. Obviously this made her happier than directly praising her. Forsi sighed inwardly. During the conversations over the past few days,
, she felt more and more that Audrey was not a simple and innocent girl as she appeared and rumored.
In Forsi's eyes, Audrey has a delicate heart and calm observation. In this regard, even he and Xio cannot compare.
From her interactions with Audrey in the past few days, she also vaguely felt that Audrey's closeness seemed to have a certain sense of deliberateness, and this sense of deliberateness seemed not only to hope to understand the extraordinary world through Forsi.
After the Baroness left, Audrey gave Forsi an apologetic smile:
"I'm sorry, it seems I chose the wrong place today."
"It doesn't matter, it's already an honor for me to be here." Forsi put down the bone china tea cup and replied lazily, then turned his attention to the door of the coffee shop, where three policemen walked in.
Audrey noticed Forsi's gaze and cast her gaze there.
Police? Why are there police here? Or two inspectors and a sergeant?
When their eyes fell on a certain senior inspector, the senior inspector immediately turned his head to look at Audrey, revealing the scar on the side of his face, and a pair of eagle-like brown eyes on Audrey and Forsi.
After staying for a while, he turned around and continued to ask the cafe clerk.
Compared to Audrey, who didn't know much about the extraordinary people of the three major churches, Fors knew that it should be a policeman disguised as an extraordinary person from the church. This was the West District, and the senior inspector with the scar on the side of his face should be a member of the Nighthawks.
Forsi picked up the bone china cup, lowered her head and took a sip. Even though she was with Audrey now, she was still a little afraid of the church's extraordinary people. This is the nature of every wild extraordinary person, even if they didn't do anything illegal.
matter.
The three policemen took out a piece of paper and showed it to the clerk, asked a few questions and then left the cafe.
Audrey turned her head and found that Forsi suddenly relaxed a little. Thinking of Forsi who was obviously nervous after the police came in just now, she asked with some confusion:
"What's wrong?" She did not suspect that Forsi had done anything illegal, at least the relevant information collected did not show this.
Forsi put down the bone china cup and scanned the cafe. After finding that no one was around them, he whispered to Audrey:
"The person who looked at us just now should be the Nighthawks of the Church of the Night. They often pretend to be police officers to handle cases."
How is that possible? Audrey shook her head subconsciously. It was ridiculous for members of the Nighthawks to pretend to be police officers to handle the case.
Seeing Audrey shake her head, Forsi added:
"Well, it's not a disguise, it should be a disguise. After all, the affairs of extraordinary people cannot be exposed to ordinary people."
This is still possible. Audrey looked out the window at the three policemen who walked into a clothing store, and lowered her voice and asked with a little curiosity:
"You mean, they are here to investigate some extraordinary incident?"
"I don't know about that." Forsi shook his head and pointed to the clerk who was being questioned, "But, Audrey, you can ask the clerk and see what those police officers are here for.
of."
Audrey's eyes lit up, she turned slightly and waved to Anne, the personal maid waiting at the door, and asked the clerk to come over.
Soon, the clerk dressed as a maid came to Audrey, accompanied by her personal maid Anne, and showed a friendly smile:
"Miss Audrey, is there anything I can do to help?"
"Oh, that's right. I saw the police came just now. Did something happen?"
"Of course not. This is Philips Department Store, which has the most complete security system to ensure the safety of every customer..."
First, there was an almost perfect routine, and then the clerk explained what happened when the police just came to the door:
"The police chief asked if he had seen a lady in a blue dress here recently. If he saw her in the future, he could contact them."
As an "audience", Audrey saw that the clerk didn't know much about this matter, so she waved her hand and asked Anne to take the clerk away, and said to Forsi:
"What do you think, is the lady in the blue dress an extraordinary person?"
Forsi shrugged her shoulders in an extremely unladylike manner. She had never seen that person, so how could she know if she was an extraordinary person? Moreover, she could not confirm whether a person was an ordinary person or an extraordinary person.
Audrey lowered her head in disappointment. Compared to the almost boring life, the things about Extraordinary people attracted her interest, and then she changed the topic to whether Forsi had any Extraordinary friends.
"Of course, most of it is just a transactional relationship. After all, if you want to become an Extraordinary, you must have channels to obtain formulas or materials."
…
North District, Dalton Street.
Forsi came out of the subway station, glanced at the sun that was about to set, and sighed. With her character, she would choose to rent a carriage even if it was not far from the apartment she rented.
.But now, she can only walk back on her own.
Last Tuesday, Xio had already purchased the main ingredients for the "Sheriff" potion from the head of MI9 at Mr. A's party, and had been successfully promoted to Sequence 8 "Sheriff".
But the price is that Forsi and Xio's savings have been wiped out, and they can't even afford a week's rent for their apartment. Fortunately, they have already paid half a year's rent and don't need to think about this in the short term.
.
However, in order to make money as quickly as possible, Hugh has begun to take on tasks crazily. Not only from MI9, but also from Williams.
Forsi was only glad that the main materials for his "Master of Magic" were relatively difficult to find, and there was no need for two people to struggle. Moreover, I was afraid that he would not have the chance to be promoted. The next full moon was coming soon, could he survive it?
do not know yet?
The relaxed mood she originally felt when chatting with Audrey disappeared. Forsi set off towards her rented apartment with heavy steps. She still had fifteen minutes to walk.
Not far away, Forsi looked up and spotted her new neighbor not far ahead, Alicia, who was suspected to have run away from home. She was wearing a common blue dress and was with a girl.
The old woman was talking.
Blue dress?
Forsi subconsciously thought of the night watcher who seemed to be looking for a lady in a blue dress just now at the Philips Department Store in the West End.
He shook his head violently, how could it be possible? The West District is so far away from here, and Alicia's skirt is also a very common style. Forsi patted his forehead and walked over with a little brisk pace.
But before walking a few steps, Alicia ended the conversation, turned around, spotted Forsi, and walked towards her.
"Alysia, why are you here?"
"I'm here to get something." There was a faint smile on Alicia's face, but she looked a little stiff. She raised the basket in her hand, which seemed to be some clothes, "What about you? Go and talk to yours again.
I met Miss Audrey, a book lover."
Forsi did not answer the question, pointed at Alicia's face and advised:
"If possible, please don't laugh like this. I would rather face an expressionless face, so that we can still be friends."
"Is it really that bad?" The stiff smile on Alicia's face disappeared and turned into a wax figure again.
Forsi nodded solemnly. Although the two were just neighbors, because of Alicia's endless questions, the three of them quickly evolved into good friends. This level of teasing will not hurt the relationship, but will make it worse.
Alicia quickly behaved like a normal person.
Forsi walked up to Alicia, held her arm and walked forward with a little melancholy:
"Do you know where Audrey took me today? The Philips Department Store is the department store that is suspected to be owned by the Negan family. Almost everyone there knows Audrey and has to stop and talk to her.
She talked and I could only watch..."
The two people walked forward for a while and then stopped. An old carriage in front of them was slowly driving out from a house, blocking the originally not very wide road.
Under the apologetic look in the coachman's eyes, Forsi also shut his mouth and stopped "discussing" with Alicia how to become a person like Audrey.
The carriage turned around, leaving a passable passage, but a child with handicapped legs jumped out of the house. The child was less than ten years old. Although he was wearing relatively loose pants, he could still see
It looked like there was a ring on his left leg.
The child who jumped out did not board the carriage directly, but stood there precariously on one leg holding a pair of tarot cards. He looked at Forsi and Alicia with two dark eyes and showed an innocent smile:
"Are you here to play with me? Do you want to try tarot divination? My divination is very good!"
