Chapter 100: A "Test"
That gentle voice seemed to resonate with Audrey's deepest thoughts, making her just resist a little, and feel that it came from her own heart and was her truest thought.
Hvin Rambis looked at her emerald green eyes like jewels, and continued speaking neither fast nor slow:
"Second, in the following banquets and dances, I will no longer resist the princes' overtures, and I will praise the Earl and Mrs. Hall in front of him.
"Remember the above words, this is the reflection of your subconscious mind, and then, forget that I have been here and said these words to you, forget that such behavior is abnormal from your original performance, do not try to seek protection, and deviate from the Church of Evernight The key position of the High Mass..."
After finishing speaking, Hvin Rambis withdrew his gaze from Audrey's eyes, and then hinted at the maid Annie and the others, so that they would not be surprised by his lady's subsequent abnormal behavior.
After dealing with these matters, his figure just disappeared into the carriage without causing any movement.
Jingle Bell!
Another bicycle passed by outside the car window, and Audrey's slightly out-of-focus eyes regained their spirits.
She watched the people coming and going on the street, and suddenly let out a small "Oh".
Then, she turned her head back to Annie and the others in embarrassment:
"I forgot one thing, I have to go to Grelint first."
At this time, the carriage had not yet left Queens, and it was not too far from the mansion of Viscount Greint. Annie and the other servants felt strange and embarrassed, and quickly ordered the driver to turn to another street.
Busy until 9:40, Audrey arrived at Paisfield Street, stepped into the second floor of the Ruen Charity Scholarship Fund, and walked into her own director's office.
Watching the personal maid Annie and the others sort out the file racks, or prepare black tea with the spring water she carried, Audrey opened the door of the attached small lounge with the big golden retriever dog Susie, as if she wanted to examine her face again. Kong, determine if you need the help of the maids to touch up the makeup.
During this process, Audrey glanced at the keyhole, and asked Susie in a relaxed state of mind:
"Is there anything unusual about my performance today?"
This is a habit she has only had in the past few days, since the disappearance of Herben Rambis!
She knows Mister Fool's angelic blessing,
The effect is not permanent, it can only last for a period of time, and she has no way of predicting whether or when Herben Rambis will come to her, and she cannot pray to Mister Fool in advance to make corresponding preparations, so Based on her understanding of psychology and occultism and her cautious attitude, she not only checked her behavior three times a day for abnormalities and whether there were too many coincidences in what happened to her, but also specially told Susie to let She pays attention to her state and acts as her own mirror.
This is to prevent being hypnotized and hinted by Hvin Rambis without realizing it!
The big golden retriever Susie squatted beside her, thought seriously and said:
"Have."
"..." Audrey's expression stiffened with a slight smile, and she hurriedly looked at Susie, waiting for her to explain.
Susie moved her nose, glanced left and right, and then continued:
"You didn't plan to visit Viscount Grelint when you went out, but you diverted to go there halfway.
"You will inform me of your general itinerary in advance in the past few days, and you also said that if you add or change the plan temporarily, you will discuss it with me first."
After hearing Susie's answer, Audrey's expression became serious.
She still didn't think there was anything abnormal about this matter, but this state was the most abnormal!
This gave her an almost certain judgment:
Hvin Rambis came here, right after he went out, before going to the Greint mansion!
The other party has already hinted and hypnotized, eliminating all traces!
However, he didn't "teach" a dog to make "it" feel that everything it saw was normal... Audrey subconsciously wanted to let Susie go out, and prayed to Mister Fool herself, but became hesitant again.
Will my current behavior be monitored by Hvin Rambis? Could he just be sitting somewhere in this room, looking at me quietly... No, if that's the case, when I asked Susie just now, he could have figured out what was wrong, and prayed that there would be no worse result ...Even if he is indeed here, Mr. Fool can still find out that I can promise future sacrifices and pray for God's punishment directly... But why do I still not want to pray or ask for help... Audrey stands there , There are various thoughts in my heart, and I instinctively want to escape.
This made her aware of the contradiction and a little resistance in her heart.
From the perspective of psychology and mysticism, she vaguely had some guesses, and hurriedly dismissed the idea of asking for help, and kept her state in a state where she usually prayed to the goddess and did not desire to respond.
This reduced her inner conflict by half.
Audrey suddenly became determined, first signaled Susie to go out, then looked in the mirror, and hypnotized herself softly:
"You're not asking for help, you're just saying your daily prayers...
"You're not asking for help, you're just doing your daily prayers..."
After several times in a row, the light green deep and soul-attracting vortex in Audrey's eyes slowly dissipated, and the eyes returned to normal.
She immediately raised her hands, clasped them between her mouth and nose, and whispered in ancient Hermes:
"A fool who doesn't belong to this era... I may have seen Hvin Rambis..."
In the words, she didn't mention that she hoped to get help, but just described the discovery just now.
After waiting for a while, a crimson light appeared in front of Audrey's eyes, submerging her like a tide.
Suddenly, her thoughts became clear, and pictures flashed through her mind.
That was Hvin Rambis, who was sitting in the carriage and sitting opposite her, wearing a black three-piece suit;
It was the old man who exhorted her sentence by sentence in a gentle voice;
It was the demigod of the "audience" pathway with light blue eyes that seemed to hide endless wisdom and whirlpools one after another.
At the same time, that sentence rang in Audrey's ears again, making her completely remember everything that happened before.
When the crimson light disappeared, what appeared in front of her was a mottled ancient bronze long table, and a mysterious figure sitting on a high-backed chair at the top, shrouded in gray-white mist.
Fear, panic, panic and other emotions emerged, Audrey stood up, lifted the hem of her skirt, and saluted that great existence:
"Thank you for protecting me, respected Mister Fool."
Klein nodded slightly, approvingly said with a smile:
"You handled it well."
Hearing these words, Audrey suddenly felt relieved and no longer panicked. She sat down and calmly described what happened to her.
As "The Fool", Klein couldn't directly discuss with Miss "Justice", help her analyze and give her opinions, so he could only smile and say:
"This is the test of fate for you."
test? Only by passing this test can I be qualified to become a demigod, and can I protect the person I want to protect in the complicated situation in Backlund? Audrey the Justice interpreted Mister Fool's prompt, nodded earnestly and said:
"I understand."
Klein didn't say any more, half sighed and half smiled:
"Go back and meet it."
Audrey was about to express her thanks again, when a deep red shot up in front of her eyes, and her vision became blurred.
In an instant, she was back in the real world, but she no longer forgot or ignored anything.
test? It means that I must solve the danger from Hvin Rambis while ensuring that my secrets will not be exposed? Even if it caused Hvin Rambis' death, wouldn't he be suspected by the Psychological Alchemists afterwards? What should I do... Audrey looked at the unusually beautiful blond girl in the mirror, turned her head slightly, and glanced diagonally across.
There is a large lounge in that direction, which belongs to those directors who do not serve in the foundation. Just ten minutes ago, when going up the stairs, Audrey saw Mr. Dwayne Dantès in it.
…………
Above the gray fog, Klein tapped the edge of the mottled long table with his fingers, analyzing what happened to Miss Justice and Miss Judgment last night and this morning:
"This is not right. Adam gave me the 'Undark Cross' through 'Judgment' and Miss 'Magician'. How can I not know who is behind them? What else do I need to test?
"Last night, I thought that the investigation of Miss Hugh was purely an action of the king's faction, and they only seconded the mid-order Extraordinary of the Psychological Alchemists, and for some reason, Adam did not share the knowledge of 'The Fool' with the king's faction and the witch sect. Things, after all, He still wants me to give some feedback...
"But now it seems that this temptation also has a part of Adam's will, otherwise Hvin Rambis would not have gotten involved in this matter at all, even for the 'Twilight Hermits', a saint is quite valuable and Important, it is not so easy to be given up and sacrificed...
"What did Adam want to test? Is the action of testing Miss Judgment purely based on his own factors, or is the will of the 'Fool' added?
"If the 'Fool' gets the 'Undark Cross' and insists on letting his subordinates investigate after knowing that the king's secret is related to Adam's plan, then he is making an enemy of the 'Twilight Hermit Society', and Adam knows that Gehrman The true identity of the favored Sparrow...
"However, with Adam's ability, there is no need to test anything. Just sit next to Miss Judgment and listen to her inner voice, and you will be able to grasp the real situation. There is no need to go through so much trouble...
"Unless he has already left Backlund, or, because of certain taboos, he dare not enter this metropolis again, and can only investigate through his subordinates...
"My reminder to Ms. Arianna and to the Church of Evernight has taken effect, and Adam has sensed the danger from God?
"This is probably the case. Although He knows that Gehrman Sparrow is related to the 'Death Consul', he probably hasn't noticed that there is a problem with the artificial Death God. Even the artificial Death God faction of the Spiritual Cult has not discovered this. Therefore, with the addition of the hidden authority, he didn't know that the goddess would not be able to descend for a long time...
"The next step is to deal with Herben Rambis, we must let Miss 'Justice' disassociate herself from being suspected."
Just as Klein thought of this, through the corresponding prayer spot, he saw Miss "Justice" Audrey enter the director's lounge, looking for Dwayne Dantès.
He hurriedly restrained his thoughts and returned to the real world.
PS: Change first and then change, ask for a monthly pass during the double period~
PS2: I recommend a book, "Losing Money to Be a Tycoon from the Game", a very interesting book, you can know the general content by reading the title, a bit similar to the richest man in Tomatoes trying to invest in bad projects and trying to lose money, very fun of.
