Chapter 145 A Big Surprise Is Coming

Woo!

The monster-like steam locomotive puffed out smoke and dragged its long body into the platform, getting slower and slower.

When the train came to a complete stop, Hugh Dilcha carried a small suitcase, followed the crowd to the platform, and then walked out of the station.

Then, she saw the familiar figure waiting beside a carriage and waved to her.

The corners of Xio's mouth curled up unconsciously.

Of course the so-called friend was Abner. When Hugh saw him, he noticed him. After all, although Hugh was not tall, he was a "punishment knight" who continuously hunted down the most vicious criminals and "punished" them. She has a kind of majesty about her, and people around her will subconsciously keep a distance from her.

When Xio came closer, Abner naturally took her luggage and pulled her into the carriage.

Only then did Abner take a closer look at his friend and saw that she was wearing a brown tricorn hat tied with silk, a red coat that was tightened at the waist, and a blue cloak on the outside. A white shirt with a large piece of lace decoration on the neckline.

Paired with the jacket are dark trousers, and there are many small square bags hanging on the waist, containing items commonly used in battle.

The whole person looks capable, capable and heroic.

It may be that the "punishment" that lasted for more than a month was too tiring, but the original baby fat on her face was actually reduced a lot.

Seeing this, Abner sighed and said: "Actually, you don't need to be so anxious to act...I am already sure about your father's matter."

Xio glanced at the driver of the carriage and found that he was pretending to be "Chessia", the puppet of Abner's "magic mirror", and that the area around the carriage had also been spiritually sealed. Then he shook his head and said:

"I know you will help me take revenge and help my father clear his grievances... But for this matter, I actually want to personally participate...

"And you said a long time ago that if you want to know the complete truth about this matter, you must be at least a demigod!

"I thought you exaggerated the difficulty at first...but now it seems that the matter my father was involved in, the demigod may really be nothing."

From your tone, it sounds like you have found something? Abner was surprised and asked directly. After all, he and Xio were not outsiders. Apart from some dangerous knowledge and intelligence, there were no taboos.

Xio took off his hat and put it on the seat next to him, then looked at Abner opposite, smiled and said:

"Do you still remember when we accompanied Mr. Gaston to the first three floors of the 'Dream Labyrinth Tower'?"

"Of course I remember!" Abner was stunned for a moment, then affirmed.

After all, it was that adventure that allowed him to completely get rid of the "confused" and "goalless" state after "traveling" and integrate into this world.

Otherwise, he will inevitably be like some short-lived "selves" who only come to the mysterious world for a month...

Xio was also stunned by the memory, and then continued: "At that time, my reward on the ninth floor of the 'Dream Maze Tower' was a book.

"It tells a love story between a beautiful girl named Sherman and an aristocratic man, and the worst thing is that it hasn't been finished yet. The story is interrupted when Sherman becomes the mistress of the nobleman... At that time, I thought her future ending would definitely not be too good...

"Not long ago, one of my informants sent me a message, telling me that 'Sherman' has appeared... but she... no, it should be him, she is still a man.

“He’s my friend Sherman from East End!

"And behind him is a witch... and it's probably the witch that Prince Edsac fell in love with - Triss!

"In addition, one of the two newly hired housekeepers you hired is also related to the witch."

Having said this, Xio sighed slightly.

Abner was not surprised that Xiu was able to investigate to this extent. After all, as a direct subordinate of Her Royal Highness Vera, her power in MI9 was definitely not small.

Especially after George III believed that Vera was no longer a threat, Hugh could call on even more manpower.

With so many conveniences and having obtained a lot of key information from himself, it is not surprising that Xio was able to touch Triss's "tail".

Abner thought for a while and asked tentatively: "Have you guessed who your enemy is?"

"Since the 'Dream Labyrinth Tower' believes that 'Sherman' is the key to unlocking the truth about my father's murder, it is not difficult to imagine...

"Although it is still unknown which nobleman 'Sherman' will be after she becomes a witch in the future, it must be someone related to my father's case!

"And Triss used 'Sherman' to get close to such a noble, most likely because of the truth about the prince's murder.

"Edsac and my father were probably silenced for the same thing!

"In addition, Mr. World found out about the 'Crazy Captain' and the 'MI9' demigod, as well as some things covered up by the haze...

"Putting all this together, it is not difficult to guess the real murderer...

"Most members of the Loen royal family, and possibly even His Majesty the King... are my enemies!"

When Xio said this, he was a little glad that he didn't know who the enemy was from Abner a year ago... With his impulsiveness and recklessness at that time, he would probably do some dangerous things regardless of the consequences, and he would not be able to get revenge. Not to mention, Forsi and Abner would also be implicated.

After all, it was only after she joined the "Tarot Society" that she learned that Augustus was a family of angels that has continued from the Fourth Age to the present day!

Even Mr. "Fool", who has not yet fully recovered to his peak, can only let Mr. "World" investigate in secret.

Abner did not give a clear answer as to whether Hugh's guess was correct. He carefully observed Hugh's "River of Destiny" and found that if she was told now about the "Black Emperor"'s godhood ceremony and the true purpose of George III , it is still likely to bring her a lot of unnecessary trouble.

After all, there are many kinds of extraordinary methods in this world. It is very dangerous to know things that you should not know at this stage... For example, Hazel in the original book has never even met Klein, but when the latter wants to know where he can When he found the extraordinary item created by the "Fire Thief" trait, he saw her image.

After thinking for a while, Abner said: "I still can't say too much, I can only tell you that Vera should be trustworthy."

"I naturally trust Your Highness...she is different from other Augustus." Hugh stared at Abner for a while, then nodded.

"In fact, she is not Augustus." Abner was worried about Hugh's attachment to Augustus and his distrust of Vera at certain critical moments, which would lead to bloody incidents, so he revealed a little bit about Vera. bottom.

Hearing this, Xio was stunned, but then he came to his senses, and combined with the clues shown by Her Royal Highness the Princess in the past, she blurted out: "Tamara?"

"Yes!" Abner nodded slightly, but did not continue the topic.

Xio also stopped delving into it and asked instead, "Where's Forsi?"

I remember that time a year ago, she didn’t come to pick me up either.

Abner coughed and replied: "She hasn't gotten up yet..."

Xio glanced at her watch subconsciously, and saw that the hour hand on the dial had pointed to one o'clock in the afternoon, so she said angrily and helplessly: "She became more and more lazy when I wasn't here, and she actually slept until the afternoon!"

After saying that, she glared at Abner: "You don't care about her!"

Abner smiled awkwardly and quickly changed the topic again.

Hugh glanced at him and didn't dwell on the matter anymore. Then he chatted with Abner and touched a pocket on his waist.

There is a gift she prepared...

And tomorrow, Thursday, May 12, is Abner's birthday, and she plans to surprise him in the early morning.

Abner was completely unaware of this, after all, he had long ignored this body's birthday.

What he didn't know even more was that Xiu wasn't the only one who planned to surprise him tomorrow.
