Chapter 31 Mr. X
160 Boklund Street, in the restaurant on the second floor.
As soon as Klein took a bite of the toast served with butter, he saw the butler walk in.
Walter bowed and said:
"Sir, someone of unknown origin rang our doorbell last night.
"Because it was very late, I didn't wake you up, but I asked the servants to take double-barreled shotguns and take turns to keep watch all night.
"With your permission, I will visit the nearby police station today and ask them to step up night patrols in this neighborhood."
Hiring a housekeeper like this, apart from being expensive, has no other disadvantages... Klein nodded lightly, took a sip of the fresh milk he just delivered, and said:
"very good."
…………
39 Boklund Street, House of Councilor Macht.
Hazel entered the living room on the second floor and saw her mother, Liana, chatting with the housekeeper.
"What happened?" She pushed a strand of dark green hair behind her ear.
Liana laughed and said:
"Someone rang the doorbell of Dantès' house at midnight last night."
"A prank?" Hazel found a seat and sat down.
"No one knows. Anyway, Dantès' butler went to the police station this morning." Liana said what she learned from the servant.
Hazel nodded slightly and said:
"It's the best way to get the police involved."
"But it's completely useless, because I don't know who rang the doorbell. It is said that no one at the scene is useless." Liana shook her head and smiled.
Hazel froze for a moment, then blurted out and asked:
"Is no one on the scene useless?"
"Yes, Dantès' butler seems to be asking the police station to step up night patrols in our neighborhood, which is a good thing." As the wife of a member of the House of Commons and the daughter of a barrister, Liana has a good relationship with the police department .
"It's useless..." Hazel repeated in a low voice, and fell into silence.
After a while, she left the living room and returned to the third floor.
On the way, she couldn't help clenching her fist and waved it forward a few times, as if she was testing something, with obvious doubts in her eyes.
…………
In the master bedroom, Klein looked at the large amount of gold coins piled up in front of him, his eyes were full of bright colors.
This total is equivalent to 4,000 pounds of gold coins!
After a week of fundraising, "Admiral of the Stars" Cattleya finally completed the "Lucky Balance" transaction. In addition to these gold coins, she also paid 6,500 pounds in cash.
Frankly speaking, such a large pile of gold coins is indeed more visually impactful than banknotes of the same size... Klein sighed as he took out 13 Loen from "Admiral of Blood" Senor from his pocket Gold coins, throwing them among their kind.
After doing all this, he took out the adventurer harmonica, brought it to his mouth, and blew it.
Without a sound, Reinette Tinekerr, who was holding four blond-haired and red-eyed heads, appeared in front of her.
"Ma'am, this is the first payment, with a total value of 4013 pounds." Klein withdrew his gaze from the pile of gold coins and looked at Miss Messenger.
It had to be said that he was a little curious about how the courier would remove such a large pile of gold coins. He remembered that when the other party received the letter, he bit it with his teeth.
"Very good..." "Remaining..." "Five thousand..." "Nine hundred..." "Eighty..." "Seven..." Reinette Tinekerr's head said one by one.
Don't remind me... Klein forced a smile and said:
"I'll raise as soon as possible."
Reinette Tinekerr didn't speak any more, and one of the heads struggled to open its mouth.
Suddenly, it became dark and deep in front of her, and all the gold coins were like flowing water, attracted by the vortex, scrambling to rush past.
After just a few seconds, the pile of gold coins disappeared.
Reinette Tinekerr nodded her four heads at the same time, and then returned to the spirit world.
He still has 8156 pounds of cash and 5 Loen gold coins on him... He can barely be said to be a rich man... There is really any investment opportunity, and he can definitely pay for it.
Instead of raising the price and talking about it... In this way, people will not be suspected of being a liar in the short term... Hehe, be more optimistic, maybe the investment opportunities in the future will allow me to earn back the previous expenses, Qian Sheng Money is always fast... Klein let out a breath, and turned his gaze out of the window, forcing himself to admire the street view shrouded in mist.
…………
After nightfall, the Eastern District is dark because of the lack of gas street lamps and most of them are damaged, as if there are countless monsters and evils hidden there.
Hugh Dilcha wore a hooded cloak, turned into a small alley, and came outside a dilapidated looking house.
This is the new party in the East District that she mentioned to Forsi before!
Xio was not in a hurry to knock on the door according to the agreed signal, but first lowered his head to examine his clothes and attire.
Unlike usual, she is wearing a pair of boots today.
The boots didn't look weird, but Xio knew very well that the soles were thick and there were many things inside, which could make a person "out of thin air" a lot.
And this can effectively conceal Xio's biggest feature!
Touching the hidden triangular thorns, Xio put on her hood and knocked rhythmically on the door.
Soon, she was ushered into the living room of the house, and sat down at random.
When the participants who were supposed to come were almost here, the party organizer finally walked in.
He is of medium height, about 1.75 meters, wearing a black classic robe, a pointed country magician hat, and a brass-like mask on his face, with a simple and mysterious temperament.
The skin is darker, but not brown, like a person from the Fenepotdisi Bay area... But I can't be sure, maybe it's tanned... The hair is black and slightly curly, which is in line with the first judgment... Xio sized up the other party with the attitude of a "magistrate of peace".
The man wearing the brass mask looked around and said with a deep smile:
"You can call me Mr. X."
Mr. X... The corner of Hugh's mouth couldn't help twitching.
——After becoming a peripheral member of MI9, she knew about many secret organizations, including the Aurora Society.
Therefore, she is very clear that the envoys of the Aurora Society use letters as their code names, and like to call themselves Mr. and Ms. so.
And in her opinion, proclaiming herself in front of outsiders feels like actively revealing her identity and background. After all, the members attending the party cannot all be Extraordinary with little knowledge and fragmentary knowledge!
Isn't he afraid of being reported? No wonder the gentleman from MI9 said that the Aurora Society is all lunatics, and their actions cannot be understood with the logic of normal people... Since Mr. A disappeared, there have been several cases in Backlund pretending to be his name or his companions to hold parties to seek For matters of interest, those responsible were quickly reported and brutally arrested... Well, this Mr. X is not necessarily from the Aurora Society, maybe he belongs to the same category as those before... Xio withdrew his scrutiny and watched the party quietly.
She rarely reported similar things, because she had the experience of a wild Extraordinary struggling to survive, and she understood that it was not easy for everyone, so as long as there were no accidents, she would not provide corresponding information to MI9.
If you are sure that they are the envoys of the Aurora Society, then you have to report them. They are all lunatics and will cause great harm... Xio was thinking while watching others exchange news or complete transactions.
She didn't participate in depth, firstly because there were no items or information of much interest, and secondly because she was saving money for the "Interrogator" potion.
…………
After the party, when he returned to his residence in the Jowood area, Xio saw Forsi put on a facial mask that was said to be able to replenish water, and she was lying there reading a book leisurely.
"How was it? How was the party?" Forsi pretended to be careless and asked.
Xio threw the cloak aside and said:
"There are a lot of people at the party, and there are a lot of items that appear, but they are still concentrated in low-sequence."
"At the first meeting, no one will bring out good things directly." Forsi put down the things in her hand and said.
"Yeah." Xio nodded and said, "The organizer of the party called himself Mr. X, but no one knows whether it has anything to do with Mr. A."
Mr. X... It seems that the Aurora will be an angel... Could it be Louis Wayne? Forsi lifted her spirits, leaned back lazily and said:
"What does he look like?"
"He's wearing a mask!" Xio gave Fors a blank look, "Do you think my sight can penetrate obstacles?"
"No, no, I mean, his overall image." Forsi had seen a full-body portrait of Louis Wayne from her teacher Dorian Gray, and knew the characteristics of the other party's image.
As a "magistrate", Hugh restored the image of Mr. X without any effort, and said doubtfully:
"Whether it has anything to do with Mr. A or not, taking such a name is likely to be reported, isn't he worried?"
After listening to Xio's description and seeing the portrait she displayed with the ability of "Magistrate", Fors was secretly delighted, and felt that Mr. X was probably the traitor of the Abraham family, Louis Wayne!
Don't worry about reporting because he is a "traveler", what accident can he escape calmly? If the official organization follows the experience of dealing with Mr. A, there is really no way to keep him... Forsi muttered silently, and asked about other things instead of talking about this topic.
When Xio went to take a bath, she hurriedly used the ability of "Astrologer" to inquire about her spirituality, superimposed the image of Louis Wayne and Mr. X, and got the answer that they are one person!
"Really!" Forsi stood up, pacing back and forth in the living room excitedly and happily.
Her first thought was to report it to the major churches, and attach a reminder that the target has the ability of "traveler", and then remembered that she had tried to hire Mister "World" to assassinate Louis Wayne.
"Anyway, first ask Mister 'World' if he is free, and if you want to take this task, we can't offend him." Thinking of what Mister 'World' did, Fors shuddered inexplicably.
After making a decision, she first confirmed that Xio was still in the bath and would not come out in a short time, and then began to pray to Mister Fool:
"...Please tell Mr. World that Louis Wayne, the envoy of the Aurora Order, has appeared. There is a high probability that it is 'Traveler', code-named Mr. X."
