Chapter 845: Attack of Salted Fish
"What is the purpose of Russell, or other people behind the scenes, putting this empty box here?
"Well, since it is designated for 'Forsi'... then there is a high probability that the other party knows the 'plot', and the real target may be Mr. Fool..."
"Well, there is such a thing from the hand of the Elf King. Klein will definitely be able to divine a lot of information with it...
"Is Russell delivering a message to 'The Fool'? Or is the 'Seal of Disaster' behind the scenes using Russell to deliver the message?"
Thinking of this, Abner opened the "Pure White Eye" again to try to extract the breath left on it. Unfortunately, due to too long time, the traces in the box have long been erased by time. Unless his "retrospection" evolves into "insight", otherwise It's hard to get any valuable results anymore.
On the other side, Forsi was not very disappointed with the empty box. He looked at it with interest and thought about possible stories about the empty box.
It wasn't until they returned to the club's villa that Forsi came back from his reverie and said to Abner: "Now that I have obtained the relics given to me by Mr. Trent, there is no need for me to continue to stay in the club." Damn it, I will set off back to Loen tomorrow."
"I'm going back to Loen tomorrow, and I can take you to 'teleport' directly..." Abner thought for a while and said.
He was referring to the "dream adventure" agreed with Audrey "Justice" during the last Tarot session.
But Forsi shook his head and said: "Don't bother me. I have joined a traveling circus these two days. They will perform in many big cities in the Northern Continent, and their final destination is Backlund... I can just join them." One side is 'acting' and the other side is 'touring'."
The salted fish actually started working hard? Was this stimulated by something? Abner was quite surprised, but on the surface he reached out and touched Forsi's forehead to confirm that she was not sick.
Forsi easily guessed what he meant, and said angrily and funny, "Am I such a lazy person in your eyes?"
"Yes!" Abner replied without hesitation.
But if I don’t work hard, I will fall further and further behind you and Xio! It's the same in the "Tarot Club"... Forsi muttered in his heart, but didn't say it out loud.
At this time, Abner retracted his palm, took out a bell from his pocket, handed it to Forsi, and said, "This bell can summon my messenger. If you encounter trouble during your journey, just write to me. I will 'teleport' there immediately."
"Okay!" Forsi nodded.
It was only then that she realized with some hindsight that Abner's touching his forehead just now was actually a bit intimate, and she seemed to be used to his touching like this, so she didn't take it seriously at first...
…
Backlund, the base of St. Samuel's Church.
Leonard Mitchell, who originally only conducted a perfunctory investigation into incidents related to 'The Fool' in order to gain free investigation time, visited many people in the 'Langlewth Case', 'Capin Case' and 'Flemish of Flesh' in his dream. After meeting the people involved in the Yuan case, he actually discovered something wrong.
"In both the Lanerwus case and the Capin case, the private detective named Sherlock Moriarty and his friend the reporter Mike Joseph appeared... Although they were only hovering on the edge of the matter, It is also a direction for investigation... As for the 'Abyss of Flesh and Blood Case', I originally wanted to enter the dream of Pastor Hazel who was personally involved, but in the end I was directly 'kicked' out...
"However, as far as I know, Sherlock Moriarty was also involved in the assassination of Duke Negan, and he even provided quite important clues...
"Speaking of which, he looks familiar... Is it some wanted criminal who changed his appearance?"
Leonard recalled what he saw in his dream, put on red gloves, walked out of the office and made himself a cup of black tea, preparing to clear his mind.
But at this moment, he suddenly saw a companion approaching and handed over a thin invitation:
"What is this?" Leonard asked confused.
"This is Ms. Dai Li's wedding invitation..." The colleague looked a little depressed.
Although Ms. Dai Li always likes to make embarrassing jokes, she is still quite popular within Backlund Nighthawks. Now that she is married to someone else, this colleague naturally feels a little uncomfortable.
"It turns out to be an invitation to a wedding..." Leonard just asked with a smile, but his face suddenly froze, then his eyes widened and his voice increased, "Who are you talking about getting married?"
Seeing his reaction, the Nighthawk thought he was the same as himself, so he patted his shoulder sympathetically and said:
"It's Ms. Daley's wedding... It's hard to accept, but it's true."
"Who is the man?" Leonard also noticed his gaffe and managed to regain his smile.
"It's a big businessman named Dwayne Dantès. He is in his early forties and has just returned from overseas..." At this point, the nighthawk said angrily, "I don't know how he managed to confuse Miss Daly. .”
After his colleagues left, the smile on Leonard's face gradually settled and became quite serious.
He knew quite well about the relationship between Daley and Captain Dunn, and he didn't quite believe that the lady would consider getting married before the Captain's revenge was avenged...
“Either that guy named Dawn used despicable means to confuse Dai Li.
"Either Dai Li discovered something and is using that person named Dawn!"
…
The Kingdom of Loen, the capital of East Chester County, Storne City.
After leaving the manor and entering the villa, Audrey received news from Mr. World after entertaining the noble children here.
She glanced at Annie, the personal maid who was supervising the servants' work not far away, then looked down at the big golden retriever dog squatting by the wall, smiled, lowered her voice, and said with shining eyes:
"Susie, you will have a gift later, are you looking forward to it?"
If it were the previous Audrey, she would definitely say "Susie, your gift has arrived", so that the golden retriever would find out that she could get real items in the room, which would easily make her study hard these days. Susie, who has basic knowledge of occult science, guessed in the direction of ritual magic.
If you change the story, the story will turn out to be that Audrey received a mysterious letter/message in the bedroom, confirming that the gift is about to be delivered. There are too many possibilities.
Susie read Audrey's heartfelt joy and sincere attitude, and subconsciously opened her mouth, vibrated the air, made a sound, and asked what the gift was, but she keenly noticed that Audrey's personal maid Anne was approaching. After coming over, he cautiously gave up his original idea.
She returned to the state of an ordinary dog, wagging her tail slowly to express her joyful and expectant mood.
But at this moment, a man's voice suddenly reached their ears:
"Madam, your 'psychiatrist' trait has arrived..."
