Lord of the Mysteries

Chapter 130 Kindly Remind

Back in the room with the big balcony, Fors looked at Xio who was leaning against the wall, and said in a low voice:

"Guess what I saw?

"That manservant, Dantès' personal manservant, is actually a believer of the god of death, and he was doing a spiritual dance to pray just now!"

Hugh suddenly opened his eyes wide, and immediately relaxed his expression:

"For Mr. Dantès, it's just a matter of the bottom line.

"Um, the manservant named Richardson obviously has the blood of the Southern Continent, maybe he was born there, so it's not too surprising that he secretly worships the God of Death."

Fors smiled and responded:

"I know, I just think this matter is very interesting, Dawn Dantès, the rich man who hides secrets, is there too many people?

"I don't think I will be too surprised if one day I find out that in this house, apart from him, all creatures including the housekeeper, maid, gardener, coachman, earthworm, bug, and mouse are related to mystery and extraordinary , can easily accept this fact.”

Xio gave his friend another look:

"If this is the case, then Mr. Dwayne Dantès will not be simple. Surrounded by extraordinary people and extraordinary creatures, it can only mean that he may be the heir of an evil god or an angel on the ground."

Without waiting for Forsi to diverge the topic, Xio turned to ask:

"Didn't you just say that you had a very strange dream involving treasure? Why are you not curious at all, without considering what it symbolizes, is it possible that it really exists?"

Forsi laughed and said:

"Dreams like this often mean big troubles and many dangers. Let's think about it when we have a chance to meet that symbol in the future."

She said so, but the real thought in her heart was:

This dream has a lot of problems, who knows if there will be a conspiracy, or go to the Tarot meeting next week, and ask Mr. "The Hanged Man", Ms. "Hermit", er, and Mr. "World" for advice, and then Deciding what to do, they are all experienced and powerful Extraordinary, maybe they have similar experience.

"You've matured a lot." Xio nodded slightly, exerting force on his back, bounced off the wall, and walked towards the place where Forsi was sleeping just now.

"Mature?" Forsi sneered,

Get closer to your friend, straighten your back, and "look down" at the other person's hair.

Without waiting for Hugh to get angry, she sighed again and said:

"You've really grown up.

"I still remember that at this time last year, you relied on your intuition to do things, and your fists in arbitration. From time to time, you would make some mistakes in a daze and lose your way. Now it is much better."

Xio was startled, lay down on his side, wrapped a thin silk quilt around his body, turned his back to Forsi, and muttered:

"The main reason I got lost was because you dragged me by."

Fors laughed twice, nodded thoughtfully and said:

"This is an inherent characteristic of the 'apprentice' path, and has nothing to do with me, eh!"

Seeing that Xio had already laid down, she walked to the wall of the master bedroom and seriously acted as a bodyguard.

The night receded little by little, and the sky gradually brightened. Klein got up and had breakfast, and received two consecutive waves of police and a group of reporters. More details on the attack on the special MP.

Under the arrangement of the housekeeper Walter, Dawn Dantès met with them one by one, and quickly took care of these matters.

In the afternoon, Councilor Macht came to the door suddenly, and said to Klein in a hurry:

"Come with me to the club for a game of tennis."

There are several clubs he joined, but there is only one that overlaps with Dwayne Dantès:

East Balam Veterans Club!

This is to finalize the arms deal? Klein understood the meaning hidden in the other party's words, and immediately asked his valet Richardson to fetch his coat, top hat, and cane, took his own carriage, and followed Mr. Congressman all the way to the sandy yellow building in Hillston District. In front of the unique building.

After entering the club, in the same room as before, Klein once again saw the Army Colonel Calvin of the Ministry of Defense with a donkey face.

After habitually exchanging pleasantries for a few minutes, Calvin finally got to the point, looked at Dawn Dantès, and said with a chuckle:

"I heard from Macht that you can take out 20,000 gold pounds at once?"

"Although it's a bit of a stretch, it's really possible." Klein responded with the corners of his mouth upturned.

Calvin nodded in satisfaction, and said in a deep voice:

"For the time being, you won't need 20,000 pounds. The batch of guns, ammunition and a small amount of artillery prepared for you will be in a warehouse in East Balam. The quantity is relatively small, and it will be able to arm three or four thousand people. Calculated according to the scrap price , at most ten thousand pounds, of course, you have to give me fifteen thousand pounds."

What he said was not concealed at all, it seemed that this was already the norm within Loen's army.

"No problem." Klein nodded calmly.

Calvin suddenly laughed:

"Very well, Macht has a good vision, if you want to do business in this area, you must not be stingy.

"That batch of arms is worth at least 20,000 pounds in West Balam. If you can find a suitable buyer and use your experience there, you can sell it for 30,000 pounds or more. By the way, the transportation and The storage fee is borne by you, and we will only send two or three people to assist you."

Sure enough, there will be a supervisor... Klein listened calmly, and felt that he had to urge "Admiral of the Stars" and Danitz to give him information about West Balam as soon as possible.

He pondered for a while and said:

"When will it start?"

"There are still two weeks before the batch of munitions is placed in the corresponding warehouse. After that, it is up to you to decide. Well, you don't have to pay the full amount directly. You will pay 8,000 to 10,000 pounds first, and then pay the balance after the matter is over." Gal Wen put on a good-talking look.

Two weeks later, it's almost the end of the month, so I will definitely have to attend the "Snake of Destiny"'s birth banquet before leaving... Still waiting for his umbilical cord blood... Klein turned his thoughts and said:

"I have to do some preparatory work in the early stage, and I will go to the Southern Continent in early July."

Calvin and Councilor Macht looked at each other, stroked their palms and said:

"no problem."

…………

Outside the East Balam Veteran Officers Club, Xio and Fors hid on the roof of a nearby building, monitoring the comings and goings of the surrounding people.

——Xiu knew very well that there were many Extraordinary people in this club, so he didn't dare to let Fors sneak in with her to provide close protection for Dawn Dantès, so he could only wait outside.

"Fortunately, this is Backlund. Even if there is no fog in this season, there will be no lack of clouds. The sun is not too fierce. Otherwise, my skin will definitely be sunburned again." Forsi shrank in the shadows, casually muttered.

Just as Xio was about to speak, he suddenly saw a carriage driving to the back door of the club. It was brown in color and had an iconic coat of arms. The main body of the coat of arms was flowers and rings.

Viscount Stratford's carriage... Xio murmured silently, quickly opened her eyes wide, and gathered her attention. Immediately, she saw the familiar yet unfamiliar figure get off the carriage, and entered the east gate surrounded by several bodyguards. Balam Veterans Club.

"What's wrong?" Fors noticed something strange about her friend.

Xio didn't hide anything, and said frankly:

"I saw Viscount Stratford, and he has come to this club."

"The chief of the palace guard?" Forsi asked back in a little astonishment.

"En." Xio nodded heavily.

Forsi opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but didn't know what to say, so she had to look around, pretending to be monitoring the abnormality.

After a while, they saw Dawn Dantès coming out.

…………

In the afternoon, another visitor came to No. 160 Boklund Street.

This time it was the major shareholder of Coim, Mrs. Mary.

"I'm sorry, my request got you into this trouble. I didn't expect Baron Syndras to do such a thing. Poor Caron, he is planning to take his family to Wintershire to spend the summer." Mary Short said apologetically and resentfully.

Klein responded very calmly:

"I agree with you about Caron, he's just unfortunate.

"However, Baron Syndras may not have done this. This is probably a trap aimed at him."

Madam Mary nodded solemnly and said:

"I have heard this speculation. It is said that the police department is planning to hire a powerful forensic doctor to help dissect the body and look for clues that have been missed."

The last half of her sentence was heard by Klein, and it was automatically replaced by "The police department plans to invite a powerful 'psychic' from the Church of Evernight to examine the corpse and look for clues that have been missed."

I don't know what to find... Klein raised his right hand, tapped his chest four times clockwise, and said:

"May the goddess bless Karon rest in peace, and the real murderer who killed him will be punished."

Lady Mary responded with the same decorum, and then said:

"In order not to let you be affected by this matter again, I plan to buy the shares in your hand in advance, and add an additional premium of 1,000 pounds to the current highest price.

"You don't have to worry about my funds. What I've been busy with recently is borrowing money from the bank."

Klein sighed and said with a smile:

"I am very grateful for your kindness, but if you want to talk about the early transfer of shares, you have to go to the church. I have donated it to them, and I plan to use the income in exchange to establish a student fund for the poor."

It was the first time Mrs. Mary heard the news, she was quite shocked and speechless.

After a full ten seconds, she breathed out quietly and said:

"Your character, your generosity, your wisdom, I am very impressed."

While speaking, she looked at Dawn Dantès with a little more appreciation.

Klein modestly pushed all the credit to the goddess, then paused, and asked with a serious expression:

"Mrs. Mary, I have a question I would like your answer to.

"When you decided to fight Baron Syndras and keep control of the Coim Company, was it purely out of inner feelings, or was there a reason to be persuaded?"

Madam Mary frowned slightly, and replied frankly:

"All the persuasion to me is to make me give up."

Klein fell silent immediately, and didn't discuss this topic any more. After chatting about the attack on Councilor Macht for a while, he sent his wife across from No. 160 Böklund Street.

After dinner, his butler Walter came to the semi-open room with a large balcony, and said to the employer sitting in the easy chair:

"Sir, the two bounty hunters have been sent away. The total cost of three days is 300 pounds, not including the food provided."

Finally left... Klein suddenly relaxed, and nodded in approval of Mr. Steward's reply.

Then, he couldn't wait to enter the master bedroom, ready to dig out the mushrooms sent by Frank Lee, bring them above the gray mist, and communicate with "Squirming Hunger".

When he came to the desk where the mushroom was hidden, he saw a letter pressed by an ink bottle on it.

Klein picked it up with some doubts, took it apart, and glanced at it quickly. His expression immediately became quite strange:

"Mr. Dantès, we are the bodyguards you invited. We have discovered something in the past few days and think it is necessary to tell you. Therefore, we entered your bedroom while you were having dinner, and left this letter. "
