Chapter 131 Charity Gala

Fall in love with you Kanshu..

"Your steward may be studying the dark arts;

"Your valet secretly believes in death;

"There are men with supernatural powers in your neighborhood;

"There may be some secrets in the neighborhood you live in, which will make people have strange dreams...

"You should be able to understand the meaning of some words, we will not explain too much, may the goddess bless you."

…Klein looked at the letter in his hand, and for a moment didn't know whether to cry or laugh.

After a few seconds, he couldn't help laughing at himself in his heart:

Just judging from the content of this letter, I am really miserable...

And there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with what it describes...

Smiling and shaking his head, Klein held the letter in one hand and shook it sideways.

The crimson flames rose up and engulfed the paper.

Anyway, Miss Hugh and Miss "Magician" are still very kind. The only problem is that I know what they reminded me, and I know the reason better than them... Klein muttered and rummaged to find out Good mushrooms.

There are four kinds in total. One is a sun-dried product that can react with water and fish. There are three flowers. The second is a new variety that has a golden cap and exudes the fragrance of flour. There is liquid flowing inside, full of milky taste, there are strange gill-like organs on both sides of the body, and the surface is covered with fine and soft scales.

Klein glanced at the mushrooms, took out a gold coin, bounced it upwards, and caught it firmly.

After confirming the result, he took off the ordinary gloves he wore before, and directly grabbed the new three types of mushrooms with bare skin, trying to verify some things that Frank Lee didn't mention.

The touch was normal, and the mushrooms hadn't changed in any way. Klein was relieved immediately, and no longer worried that their danger level exceeded the taboo line.

He was quite afraid that as soon as these mushrooms came into contact with flesh and blood, they would immediately spread their roots, devour them, grow, and spread spores.

"Maybe it's because of the brighter light of the current gas wall lamp, or it may be that after picking,

These mushrooms have lost most of their activity, and they can only be revived under special conditions, such as the stomach environment of creatures..." Klein drew all the heavy curtains in the master bedroom in the spirit of demonstration, and extinguished all Gas wall light.

Then, he picked up the new species of mushrooms with his bare hands again, and confirmed that they were normal and did not suck his own flesh and blood.

After finishing this, Klein relit the wall lamps, arranged a ceremony, and sacrificed the mushrooms above the gray mist.

Sitting in the position of "The Fool", he didn't rush to provoke "squirming hunger", and let the metal vial containing his own blood fly to the long bronze table first.

Immediately afterwards, he poured a drop of blood on the table and pushed the new three types of mushrooms there.

In just one second, the parts of these mushrooms near the blood suddenly softened, wriggled and wrapped around them, and dense needle-like hairs grew out of the contact surface.

"..." The corners of Klein's mouth twitched as he saw it, and he directly invoked a little power from the mysterious space above the gray mist to suppress all the mushrooms, then let the drop of blood fly back into the metal vial, and closed the lid.

He had roughly understood the properties of these mushrooms, so he didn't waste any more time, beckoning "Squirming Hunger" to fly over from the pile of debris.

Holding the thin human leather glove, Klein placed it on the table and released the restraint on the mushroom.

Then, he saw "Squirming Hunger" stand up forcibly with five fingers as a support, and quickly backed away like playing a piano.

You know you're scared, right? Klein showed a kind smile, and pressed down on the human leather glove, which contained a little power of "gifting" the mysterious space above the gray mist.

Then, with his other hand, he grabbed a mushroom and approached Creeping Hunger.

The human leather glove struggled desperately, but couldn't get rid of it, and there was an obvious trembling.

Klein paused the hand holding the mushroom, and laughed softly:

"Do you still praise the 'True Creator' at any time?"

"Squirming Hunger" continued to struggle without responding.

Klein thought for a while, then backed down and said:

"I allow you to praise once a day, morning or evening."

Creepy Hunger struggled less, but didn't stop.

Tsk... Klein continued to communicate calmly on the surface:

"Then three times a day, according to the time of breakfast, lunch and dinner, but you have to remind me in advance."

After "Squirming Hunger" struggled a few times, it suddenly spread out on the table without any movement.

After some more communication, Klein successfully reached an agreement with "squirming hunger" on this issue, but the fact that he has to eat people every day belongs to the instinct of objects, and communication alone cannot weaken it too much, and he still has to wait for Azik To provide an effective sealing method, all Klein can do so far is to allow the "squirming hunger" to be carried without eating people. However, food must be replenished within 24 hours.

It's really troublesome... Fortunately, after "Squirming Hunger" fused Mr. A and mushrooms, its living characteristics were enhanced. Otherwise, it really wouldn't be possible to communicate in such a specific way... Klein sighed for a while, and turned to the recent events. After doing the corresponding divination, I came to the conclusion that I am not very dangerous, and preliminarily confirmed that there were extraordinary factors in the Karon suicide case.

After being busy, he left above the gray mist, returned to the real world, and continued to wait for Mr. Azik's reply.

…………

On Saturday night, Klein, dressed in formal attire, arrived at St. Samuel Church in a carriage with his valet Richardson to participate in the charity gala held by the Church of Evernight.

After passing through the main entrance, he was guided by the pastor to a hall on the side.

There is a shrine here, in which there is a holy emblem representing the goddess of the night, several small crystal chandeliers hang from above, slender candles are placed in front of it, and metal domes filled with oil wax are placed upside down.

At this time, they have all been lit, illuminating the hall brightly and cleanly, with a sacred flavor of its own.

Klein glanced around, and saw neatly arranged seats and guests in extraordinary clothes.

Among them, women's dresses are mainly divided into two categories, one is bright or dull, bold and open, and you can see a large white chest and arms on both sides, and the other is fresh in color and quite conservative. As for the chain bones, they are only vaguely visible, or even covered.

As far as Klein knew, in the Loen Kingdom, this meant the difference between married and unmarried. Widows and divorced women could choose both types of attire, but the color tone of the former would be as dark as possible.

In addition to these, Klein also saw shining necklaces, exquisite earrings, and various precious accessories. Compared with the balls and banquets held by Congressman Macht and himself, the guests here are obviously more style.

Stepping into the hall, Klein greeted and chatted with the Bishop and Councilor Macht he knew.

At this moment, a voice came from the door, and after many guests cast their gazes there, they all showed smiles and greeted them.

Klein then looked there, his eyes lit up first, then froze.

At the entrance of the hall, the most eye-catching girl is a girl with shiny blond hair and soft drape. Her green eyes are as beautiful as gems, and it seems that there is a whirlpool hidden in the sea, so that the observers can hardly take their eyes off.

She has bright facial features, outstanding temperament, and seems to have no flaws in her appearance, making it difficult for the men and women present to notice what style of dress she is wearing and who designed the accessories. However, Klein caught her collarbone chain, A round and flawless pearl is just "inlaid" in the depression where the two clavicles meet, softening the lines of the neck and highlighting a pure and charming feeling.

Klein has seen her and knows her!

She is Miss Justice of the Tarot Society!

With the help of "magic mirror divination", Klein saw her appearance!

Suddenly, Klein looked away, not daring to look more.

This is his instinctive reaction, the main reason is that he knows that Miss Justice is an Extraordinary in the "Audience" path, if she attracts her attention, it is easy for her to interpret her true thoughts from the changes in expression, body language, and aura and hidden secrets.

With a flash of thought, Klein forcibly turned his head back again, and continued to look at Miss Justice's face.

He found out that the avoidance problem just now was bigger and more obvious:

How could a gentleman who likes women of different styles not pay more attention to such an unusually beautiful girl?

At the same time, Audrey noticed something unusual about a certain gentleman:

"The sideburns are already a little gray, and his appearance and temperament are not bad, and he looks very deep... This should be the Mr. Dwayne Dantès who donated tens of thousands of gold pounds to try to establish a poor student fund...

"His reaction just now was a bit strange, he seemed to be covering up something..."

For Audrey, the behavior of Dwayne Dantès looking away is actually quite normal. She has encountered too many similar situations - some men will indeed turn their heads subconsciously after seeing her, The reaction of looking to the side seemed to be afraid of being discovered by her, afraid of making eye contact with her, and afraid of exposing the fascination that emerged at that moment.

Therefore, Dwayne Dantès didn't look away strangely, but turned his gaze back later. In addition, Audrey felt that the most problematic point was that this gentleman was more surprised than amazed.

"What is he surprised about? What is he hiding?" With such doubts and a slight smile, Audrey followed her parents and elder brother, and greeted the crowd who came over.

Klein secretly heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that Miss Justice didn't pay attention to him anymore, and thought in his heart:

"Wait, you have to be careful, play the role of Dwayne Dantès well, and you can't let the 'audience' see the problem.

"Hmm... Regardless of whether Miss Justice has discovered it or not, I have to think of a reason for the abnormal reaction just now...

"Miss 'Justice' is indeed a lady from a noble family. I don't know her exact name or surname. Wait, ask Macht or Bishop Elektra..."

Amidst his thoughts, Klein frowned slightly, always feeling that he was still being watched by someone, so he hurriedly followed his spiritual intuition and glanced at the door.

In the shadows outside the door, a big golden retriever dog was squatting there silently.
