Lord of the Mysteries

Chapter 170 Go Home

Hearing the familiar description of the scene, Audrey could almost confirm that it was done by Mister Fool's favored one.

She immediately had a strong sense of substitution, participation and pride.

That is a bloody and criminal human trafficker... The "trial" card means that he is being judged justly, and the verdict is hanging, beheading, or burning? The "Emperor" card should be a sign of identity... Is this the favored person who sneaked into the Kingdom Museum and stole the "Black Emperor" card? All of a sudden, Audrey's imagination was running wild.

She originally planned to ask for more details and more detailed process, but from the expression, tone and emotional color of her father, Earl Hall, she knew that he didn't know what happened for the time being, so she could only press down her doubts and curiosity and prepare to start Cons Learson, a good friend who works for MI9, inquired.

Although it is very in line with my image to ask Kangsi directly, it is still a bit abrupt and contradicts the status of aristocrat. Well... let Annie prepare a few invitations for afternoon tea and send them to each other. Grelint, Cons, Murray, Christine, Jane and the others... most of them are people who are interested in the occult, and they will not be indifferent to the name of the grand rogue "Dark Emperor". Under my guidance , can help me ask a lot of questions that I am inconvenient to ask... So it was decided... Audrey withdrew her attention and sipped her breakfast.

She believes that Mr. Fool's favored one will not deal with Capin purely for the purpose of punishing evil, which does not fit his identity. Of course, if it is Audrey who just joined the Tarot Society a few months ago, she will definitely be willing Accept a similar explanation, or she wouldn't have picked the "Justice" card as her symbol.

After going through many gatherings and going through a lot of things, she felt that she had matured a lot and was no longer so innocent. She believed that there must be more critical and essential factors hidden in this incident, such as which evil god was involved in Kapin , or which secret organization.

I hope Conce can provide useful information... Audrey thought with anticipation.

…………

At No. 15 Minsk Street, Klein was flipping through today's newspaper while eating white bread smeared with jam.

"What? A safe?" Looking at it, he almost blurted out, almost swallowing himself.

I'm not, I don't, don't talk nonsense... Klein immediately denied the description that he stole all the property in the safe with three consecutive words in his mind.

The situation was urgent. In order to obtain clues, although he found the safe, he only went in to see if there were any important documents and evidence. He did not take any property, and quickly left there and moved into another room.

Of course, Klein, who was in a spiritual state, was also injured to some extent in the explosion caused by the gas.

The total weight of the items that can be carried has dropped a lot, and there are only gold bars, jewelry, land deeds, house deeds, and antiques in Kapin's safe, which are either inconvenient to take or impossible to get rid of.

Maybe he still has a special place for cash, but unfortunately I haven't encountered it, and I don't have time to look for it... Klein muttered silently, confirming that it was some follow-up investigators who divided up all the property in the safe.

He glanced at the newspaper, took a sip of Xibo black tea, exhaled slowly, and said with a smile in his heart:

"Grand Thief 'Dark Emperor'...I like this title..."

After breakfast, Klein put on a heavy double-breasted long dress, took a half-height silk top hat and a hard black cane, opened the door and left Minsk Street, heading for Broken Ax Alley on the edge of the Eastern District.

That's where Daisy went missing.

After finalizing the plan yesterday, before putting it into action, he deliberately went to Broken Ax Lane to search for clues, and knocked on the doors of many surrounding houses, asking if they had seen a girl similar to Daisy.

Although Klein believes that the official Extraordinary who takes over will not feel that poor and poor families can afford to hire a "Grand Thief" with at least Sequence 6 strength, there is a high probability that the direction of investigation will be on the secrets involved in Kapin, and Supplemented by peripheral investigations such as "who has inquired about Capin's affairs recently", he still made a cautious decision to try to perform a full set of performances at the beginning of the performance. If any law enforcement officer lost his mind, he planned to do a preliminary investigation in this regard Woolen cloth?

Some families may still have some savings, so they can afford to hire other detectives. I am a kind person who just took over yesterday, and the probability of being suspected is extremely low. To compare the performance of the two... Moreover, the last time the Nighthawks were dispatched, and they were assisted by the special military department. This time in the Jorwood area, the Punishers should take over, and the communication between them will not be so smooth... Well, Katie and Parker belong to the "arbitrator" channel, and I don't know if the military will intervene... As a former nighthawk, Klein has some understanding of the behavior patterns, work styles and investigation habits of several official organizations. enough to know.

To put it simply, I have excellent anti-detection capabilities... Klein laughed at himself and boarded the carriage.

He wants to continue to investigate Daisy's disappearance.

Because he is an ordinary private investigator who has not confirmed that Daisy's disappearance is related to Capin.

…………

At nine o'clock in the morning, Daisy returned to the dilapidated apartment she rented, accompanied by the police in charge of the surrounding blocks.

Together with those same poor girls, she was placed in churches in the Jowood area last night, and she was questioned accordingly, including the scene when they escaped, what they saw when they looked back, and where they lived , what is the family situation, do you know friends who are not too ordinary, etc., etc.

Daisy, who was still in a state of panic and fear, answered those questions truthfully.

After that, no one looked for her.

She slept in the middle of the night, and was sent to the East District in the early morning, and handed over to the vicious Mr. Policeman she often saw.

Along the way, Daisy didn't dare to speak, she was a little trembling, and when she entered the apartment where her family lived, she felt a little more at ease.

She had just stepped into the door, and before she could find her mother and sister through the hanging wet clothes, she heard a scream:

"Daisy!"

Freya put down the work she was doing, like a swift deer, dodging the clothes in mid-air and the sundries on the ground, quickly ran to the door, and hugged her sister tightly.

Then, she let go of her hand, shed tears, and looked up and down Daisy in surprise and worry:

"Are you OK?

"Great, you're finally back!"

Liv also stood up from behind the laundry tub, wiped her hands on her clothes, wiped her eyes and said:

"Daisy, where have you been these few days?"

At this moment, the gentleman policeman interjected:

"She was kidnapped and we got her back."

"Thank you, thank you! You are so, so great!" Liv shed tears and used adjectives indiscriminately.

The policeman coughed twice and said:

"This is our duty... Have you encountered any strange people in recent days?"

Li Fu was stunned for a second, and one less thing counted as one thing, and she didn't want to add trouble and said:

"No, really not."

The policeman waved his hand and said:

"Be careful in the future! Don't take the path where there are no people!"

He couldn't bear the humidity and the mixed smells here, so he turned and left immediately.

Liv looked at her little daughter again, strode to her side, wiped her hands on the sides, and hugged Daisy:

"It's good to be back, it's good to be back..." She murmured with tears in her eyes, without asking Daisy if she was hurt.

Daisy relaxed, sobbing and crying.

Freya next to her also wept, stretched out her hands, and hugged her mother and sister respectively.

The mother and daughter cried for a while, and each relaxed.

Liv wiped her eyes again and said:

"Starter the laundry first, there's a lot more."

Daisy, who had just been rescued, nodded and quickly got into her busy work.

It wasn't until noon, when they were eating black bread and drinking white water that could hardly be called tea, that Liv had time to ask:

"Daisy, are you hurt?"

Daisy shook her head and said:

"They just hit me a few times."

"That's great! The police rescued you? Yesterday, a kind detective was willing to help you find you for free, but you came back today. Ah, your vocabulary book is still with him." Freya said casually .

Liv had already prepared a sentence: "I will ask the old Kohler to get it back, and tell the detective that you have gone home, so that he doesn't have to be busy with this matter, no matter what, we have to say something to him again thanks."

Daisy let go of her worries and turned to answer her sister's question:

"No, it wasn't the police, there was a sudden explosion, and the door that locked us was opened strangely, and we ran out like that, but we saw a gentleman or a lady standing on the roof.

"He was wearing black armor, a crown-like helmet, and a cloak. He just watched us quietly. None of the broken ones came to stop us and chase us."

As the "guide student" of the free school, Daisy's vocabulary is obviously richer than that of her mother Liv.

"A person like that saved you?" Liv asked in surprise, and Freya was curiously waiting for the answer.

Daisy nodded seriously and said:

"Yes, he is like, like the bards say...

"hero!"

Hero... Freya chewed the word, her eyes were as bright as stars.

…………

In a secret room, a group of people took the distributed materials and carefully compared the Lanrus case and the Kapin case, looking for similarities in motivation and modus operandi.

"The two things can't be connected at all. The only thing they have in common is that evil, or crime, has been defeated, and the owner of the Tarot card has upheld justice." Someone sighed.

"What is certain is that the person who did the two attacks was not the same person. Their strengths are obviously different, and they are even more good at different things. Although this may be due to the improvement of the sequence itself, the murderer of the Kapin case is a vengeful spirit, or can switch the state of a spirit body. , which is uncommon.” The analysis by another person received majority approval.

Thus, the convener concluded:

"Two cases, two different people, and they both threw Tarot cards. Maybe the latter imitated the crime, so that we can target the insiders of the Lanerus case. Another possibility is that there is a organize!

"An organization symbolized by tarot cards!"
