When these two words echoed above the gray fog and inside the palace, all members of the Tarot Club cast their gaze on Mr. "Emperor" who was sitting first on the right side of the long bronze table. Although this gentleman never admitted it
Although he had no identity, everyone present knew that he was from the Augustus family.
How will this member of the royal family react when faced with Mr. Fool’s reminder?
Compared to the other members, Audrey, the daughter of Earl Hall, understands better what the name Edsac Augustus means, the third son of the current King George III and the third heir to the throne.
.
Will he be related to any dangerous event that may lead to tragedy? Moreover, this matter seems to have caught the attention of Mr. Fool!
In her mind, the things that Mr. Fool could watch were either very dangerous, extremely secretive, or far-reaching, and definitely not simple. For example, the "True Creator" was trying to use Lanerwuss and the East End Factory District's evil deeds to
Things happened to Backlund, such as Emperor Russell's "Black Emperor" card...
By analogy with these examples, Audrey has every reason to believe that if it is not handled well or not taken seriously enough, major events involving Prince Edsac will inevitably bring about a very, very, very terrifying "storm"!
What's more, another Tarot Club member is involved!
A member of the royal family? It seems to be a prince? I can’t contact him... Even if Forsi can obtain information from Audrey and Viscount Gray Lint, she does not intend to do so. She may have to do so in the future.
Hide away to Pulitzer Harbor to escape Alicia.
However, Xio must pay attention to the fact that the royal family's problems will most likely involve MI9... Well, we also need to see the reaction of Mr. "Emperor". He is both a senior member of MI9 and a member of the royal family, so it is impossible not to do something.
Any preparation.
"The Hanged Man" Alger was quite interested in this, but he didn't dare to ask Mr. "Fool" who was obviously just giving hints, so he had to focus on the "Emperor", hoping to get some answers from him.
"Edsac?"
Rawls, who knew what would happen next when "The World" opened his mouth, repeated it doubtfully, sat up straight, and said in a deep voice:
"How does it have anything to do with him?"
How could it be related to him? What does this mean? Is it that we don’t know why Prince Edsac was involved, or that Mr. "Emperor" has long been aware that there is a problem, but it is another person who has the problem?
Although Klein wanted to ask clearly, as the "Fool", one reminder was enough. As for the subsequent analysis, he left it to the members of the Tarot Club.
But Rawls's question was also a question raised by members of the Tarot Society. Before Rawls spoke, they could not judge why Edsac had caught the eye of Mr. Fool.
Seeing that the "Emperor" fell silent, Alger frowned, pondered for two seconds, and said:
"The atmosphere above the sea is not calm either. This may be linked to Backlund, just like those machines."
What he said is not unfounded. There is indeed chaos on the sea, but the reason why he said this is to let the four Tarot Club members in Backlund actively investigate and let Mr. "Emperor" reveal some more information.
.
As soon as "The Hanged Man" finished speaking, Rawls raised his head and looked up:
"Dear Mr. Fool, I would like to have a private communication with Miss Justice."
Is Mr. "Emperor" going to cooperate with Miss "Justice", who is also from a noble family? Forsi was stunned for a moment, and then understood the purpose and reason for the separate exchange.
Although Alger was a little depressed, this matter really had little to do with him. Even if he knew about it, he would not be able to return to Backlund to do anything, but...
It's better to communicate alone, I can hear it anyway... "The Fool" Klein nodded and skillfully isolated the others.
"Mr. Emperor, did you think of something?"
Audrey blinked and entered the state of "mind reader". She felt tension, hesitation, calmness, and confidence from the other person's minimal body language... This inconsistent and complex emotional expression made it difficult for her to judge.
What exactly Mr. "Emperor" is thinking can only be further interpreted by combining it with the other party's words.
"No, I have been at sea recently. I don't know much about Prince Edsac, but with your status, you should be able to detect the changes in him."
When facing a "mind reader", the best way is not to have any body language or facial expressions, but once you enter the conversation state, you will inevitably be noticed by the other party. Fortunately, this is above the gray fog, covering the face and expression.
Just pay attention to your movements.
A better way is to get Audrey out of the "mind reader" state directly!
"After Duke Negan was assassinated by Qilingos, although it was not revealed who alerted him, it is easy to infer who alerted him from the transfer of property in his name."
Does Mr. "Emperor" know my identity? Does he know that I am Audrey Hall?
Audrey instantly broke away from the "mind reader" state. Although she had been prepared for her identity to be exposed since she knew that Mr. "Emperor" was from the Augustus family and from MI9, she still found it difficult to accept it now.
Sure enough, compared to Mr. "Emperor", Miss "Justice" still has too little experience... Klein felt a little emotional, he was not in the game, and he could even guess that Mr. "Emperor" said this because he did not want Miss "Justice" to "
Mind reading".
"Don't worry, with your status, no one will take action against you. I just want to ask you to do a favor. Help me observe or inquire about Earl Angus's recent performance."
"Earl of Angus? Prince Charlie?"
Audrey, who had broken away from the "mind reader" state, could not even grasp her own emotions, so she directly revealed that Earl Angus was Prince Charlie.
Prince Charlie? Why is another prince involved? Klein suddenly felt that he was involved in another big trouble. What Mr. "Emperor" said before about "how could it be related to him" was that he thought something was abnormal about Prince Charlie.
?
But how could he investigate a prince for no reason?
Mr. "Emperor" has been investigating human trafficking cases, and has been transferred out of Backlund several times because of this. Is this matter related to Prince Charlie? If so, then Mr. "Emperor" still needs to be restricted.
Understandable.
"With your identity, you should know what happened to Charlie half a month ago..."
After knowing that Klein was about to point out the problems with Prince Edsac, Rawls came up with this method to involve Prince Charlie. Even if it was discovered at the time that he had nothing to do with human trafficking, this did not prove that
He has no problem. The smuggling of new arms is indeed related to this prince.
However, it was Mr. "Emperor" who discovered that Prince Charlie was related to smuggling during the investigation. It would not be surprising for a prince to be involved in smuggling and human trafficking.
What happened to Prince Charlie... Audrey also knew that she had to calm down now, so she calmed down while recalling, and suddenly remembered a piece of news she heard when she was with Princess Delina and Princess Caroline last week.
Prince Charles' butler Pole commits suicide.
When it came to the secrets of the prince and the royal family, she did not inquire more about it at that time.
Could it be related to this matter?
What happened? Klein wanted to smash open the "Emperor's" head to see what he was thinking. Isn't it interesting to say half of it? You are communicating alone, why are you so secretive?
"With your identity, you can better collect Charlie's anomalies. I can pay you some rewards, such as some information about the Psychological Alchemy Society. They are scarier than you think."
Audrey, who had already calmed down and remembered what Mr. "Emperor" was investigating recently, also became suspicious of Prince Charlie. If His Highness the Prince was really involved in human trafficking, as a "justice", she would naturally not choose to stand by and watch.
No reward was required. But when he heard that the reward was the information from the Psychological Alchemy Society, he could only nod his head and agreed.
She remembered that Forsi had said that the wives, children, and relatives of the nobles who supported the Conservative Party might be members of the Psychological Alchemy Society, so she understood how terrifying this organization was, and she wanted to investigate what secrets were hidden behind it.
After the individual exchange ended, Klein did not understand what the "Emperor" and "Justice" were talking about, so he had to announce the end of this Tarot session.
…
Queens, in the luxurious villa of Earl Hall's family.
Audrey stood in front of the full-length mirror, looking at herself in a daze.
This tarot gathering brought both good news and bad news to her.
The good news is that she is about to get one of the main ingredients for the "psychiatrist" potion.
Although she is no longer the ignorant girl who spent 1,000 pounds to buy some basic knowledge from "The Hanged Man" and knows the approximate prices of many extraordinary materials, she does not mind paying a premium for the eyes of the Mirror Dragon.
This is like a piece of precious jewelry that is favored by many noble ladies, and a rare horse with a unique bloodline that is favored by men. The corresponding premium is bound to exist. It is inevitable. Sometimes, the original price will be doubled or tripled.
It's not impossible... Moreover, Forsi is busy in the middle, contacting teachers, so she definitely can't let her waste time and take risks, well... she doesn't know that I am "Justice"... Audrey thought indifferently
With.
But compared to the good news, the bad news is much more serious. The "Fool" reminded that there was a problem with Prince Edsac, and Mr. "Emperor" investigated and found that there was also a problem with Prince Charlie, although she believed "The Fool" more
Sir’s reminder, but Prince Charlie can’t give up.
At most, the two princes can inquire together, so that there will be no misunderstandings and let dad agree to the royal marriage... Audrey, with such good conditions, you will definitely be able to solve this problem! Come on!
The girl drew a crimson moon on the figure in the mirror, trying to make herself optimistic.
…
In Pulitzer Harbour, in the White Rose District, in an ordinary small building.
Alicia stood quietly at the window and saw the fog and black smoke floating on the sea in the distance, saw the boats and people passing back and forth, heard the whistles, the cries, the chants of the dock workers, and the
There was the slight breathing sound of the Abraham tribesman on the bed.
After her arrival, Lawrence Norton has reached the end of his life. Even the potion she refined with the "Crimson Heart" has no effect. The terminal illness can be cured, but his life has dried up and cannot be saved.
Lawrence's body could not bear the negative effects of "Crimson Heart" at all, and he could only wait quietly for the end of death. He was wearing a heavy woolen coat and a thick quilt, with thin cheeks, chapped lips, and blue
His colored eyes were cloudy, staring blankly at the ceiling.
In the face of death, there is not much difference between a Sequence 7 Beyonder and an ordinary old man.
Dorian Gray, who was of medium stature but had exaggerated arms, held his hand, with sadness, sorrow and resentment in his eyes. He was sad for the imminent death of his people, sad for the future of the Abraham family, and for the future of the Abraham family.
Lawrence, resentful that he had taught Botis and Louis Venn.
The few members of the Abraham family who were willing to revitalize the family's honor almost died in that rebellion. Most of the remaining members of the family had abandoned their surnames and chose to spend their lives in silence as ordinary people. This made Dorian feel very attached to Abraham.
There is even less hope for the future.
Lawrence, who was lying on the bed drowsily, suddenly had a light in his cloudy blue eyes. He grabbed Dorian who was holding his hand with his backhand and said with a "hissing" breath:
"Dorian, we can't give up, we can't give up, the Abraham family must restore its honor..."
Dorian, who knew Lawrence's current state, had wet eyes, nodded repeatedly, and said with a cry:
"I will not give up, I will restore the honor of the Abraham family!"
After saying this sentence, the light in Lawrence's eyes gradually dimmed, but his voice did not lower:
"I saw it, Dorian, I saw it, I saw the Abrahams could live with their own names, I saw it, working with Tamara, working with them, working with him..."
His voice became lower and lower until it disappeared.
Alicia was still standing in front of the window, but she had turned around and looked at Abraham, who asked Dorian and Tamara to cooperate before he died, without speaking.
But Dorian did not agree. He held his old friend's hand tightly, with some suspicion in his blue eyes.
People can get more information from the spiritual world in their early childhood and before death. This is because their spirits are not stable. An extraordinary person's pre-death divination will often be more accurate.
But now Alicia is standing in front of the window. Did she use her power to influence Lawrence and let Abraham use it to cooperate with Tamara?
Therefore, Dorian did not dare to agree, nor did he dare to turn his head to look at the demigod behind him, for fear of causing misunderstanding, and for fear of bringing the family into the abyss again.
