Chapter 389 Before the Tarot Session
Monday, afternoon, Backlund.
At this point in time when the Tarot session was approaching, Audrey, who had just finished the lunch session, practiced the piano for a while, and took advantage of the time to return to her bedroom to participate in another Tarot session.
On the way back to the bedroom, Audrey accidentally discovered that her father, Earl Hall, had some documents on his desk, which aroused her curiosity. So under the cover of Susie, Audrey read the documents. It was discovered that it was an investigative report from the Eastern District.
The investigation report recorded the living conditions of the lower class people in the East District, as well as the dark side of some extraordinary people colluding with gangs. From the emblems on the documents, Audrey judged that this was most likely an investigation commissioned by the Church of the Night Goddess.
But why give one to Dad? Well, dad is also a believer in the goddess. Could it be that the people in the church want dad to give some support to improve the poor living conditions of those in the East District... Audrey thought about it in her heart, but she felt a little happy.
Audrey has actually wanted to do something similar for a long time, but it has always been inconvenient. If her father does these things under the instruction of the Goddess Church, Audrey doesn't have to worry too much and can just be generous. Get involved and help those poor people.
Well, the Tarot Club is about to be held... Audrey raised her head and glanced at the clock hanging on the wall of the study room. She found that it was almost three o'clock and could only give up the idea of continuing to read. She reorganized the files and read them casually. She pulled out a book next to her, pretending that was the reason she came to the study.
…
Silver City——
For Derrick, these days were probably the most exciting and happy days ever.
The two angels serving Mr. Fool came to Silver City, bringing the sun to Silver City and news from the outside world.
As a member of the Tarot Club and the only being in Silver City who has contact with The Fool, Little Sun Derrick has naturally accompanied the two angels throughout their actions these days, helping the two angels understand Silver City and to a certain extent. It serves as a bridge for communication between Silver City and the Fool.
As for the historical materials needed by His Highness the Angel of Secrets, they are naturally being transcribed. However, the conditions in Silver City are limited, so the transcribing is relatively slow. Even so, a lot of information has been transcribed in the past two days and handed over to Dai Li one after another. Ke handed it over to His Highness the Angel of Secrets.
As for the external things His Royal Highness the Angel of Secrets has brought, the books among them have been handed over to professional scholars for interpretation. The rest of the things, such as food, cannot be stored for long, so they are kept according to the traditional methods. The credit was distributed to everyone, but because we wanted as many people as possible to taste these foods from the outside world, everyone got a small amount.
As a member of the patrol team, Derrick was also lucky enough to get something: he was given something called candy, and he also tasted the sweetness that was only recorded in ancient books.
To be honest, Derrick has never eaten other candies, so he has no way of distinguishing between good and bad. As a person who grew up eating either black-faced grass or the flesh and blood of various strange monsters, Derrick truly felt that that candy was the best thing he had ever eaten.
It would be nice if His Highness the Angel of Secrets could bring some candies when he comes... No, how could I think so, this is not good... Derrick shook his head, and he could not help but recall the candies in his mind. The smell made him swallow his saliva, and he saw His Highness the Angel of Secrets in front of him who was quietly reading an ancient book and looked up at him.
The other party smiled gently and said, "Are you hungry?"
"Uh, no..." Derrick shook his head quickly.
"Don't deny it in a hurry, let me think about it..." Lin En searched around his body, and finally found a piece of candy from nowhere.
"Well, although I'm not really hungry, it's good to supplement my sugar intake." Lin En handed over the candy.
"No, how can I ask for your things..." Derrick shook his head instinctively.
Lin En's brows jumped when he saw this, and he tore open the candy wrapper and stuffed it into his mouth, "Eat it, it's just a piece of candy..."
"Thank you..." The candy was already in his mouth, so Derrick naturally couldn't spit it out, so he could only say a vague thank you, and at the same time he couldn't help but squint his eyes.
Sure enough, it's delicious.
"You're still a child..." Lin En couldn't help but shook his head when he saw how he could trick him away with just a candy, and continued: "Eat slowly, there will be a lot of candy in Silver City sooner or later, it's just a matter of time. "
"Gulu..." Although Derrick the Little Sun ate it as slowly as possible, it was obvious that a piece of candy was still not very useful and was eaten quickly. However, Derrick the Little Sun was already satisfied. He saw Xiang Lin En couldn't help but ask: "Your Highness the Angel of Secrets, can Silver City really return to the sunshine soon?"
"Of course, you have to believe Mr. Fool." Lin En smiled and advertised to Mr. Fool. After a pause, he remembered something and said: "But before that, you may be able to taste other foods...I mean It’s not just something you’re trying to eat, it’s something you can eat as a staple in your daily diet.”
Derrick suddenly showed a curious expression and asked, "What kind of thing is that?"
"A special kind of mushroom that can grow in the dark and can swallow the flesh and blood of monsters. If it tastes like milk, fish and beef, I don't know if there are other flavors. Maybe it can be developed again by then. "Lynn replied, recalling the terrifying mushrooms in the original novel.
"Mushrooms?" Derrick recalled the contents of the textbook with a somewhat expectant look: "Do mushrooms have so many flavors? It has never been mentioned in books before..."
"Well, there are no normal mushrooms..." Linn shook his head with a subtle expression. He looked at Derrick, gave up the explanation after thinking about it, and changed the subject with a smile, saying:
"We will be at the Tarot Club soon. Remember to say hello to the Pope for me and tell him that I already know what he wants to do. I will provide him with the help he wants after finishing his trip to the God-Forsaken Land. ."
"Okay, His Highness the Angel of Secrets, I understand. I will tell Mr. Pope." Derrick nodded quickly. Naturally, he was not surprised that the Angel of Secrets would know about the Tarot Club. As an angel who serves the Fool, It would be strange if the other party didn't know.
"Tsk..." Medici, who was also reading this ancient book next to him, let out an unclear tsk when he heard this.
This made Derrick look at War Angel with some doubts. Seeing that the latter didn't seem to have any other expression, he gave up.
Soon, as 3 o'clock in the afternoon approached, Derrick's eyes suddenly filled with gray fog, and a familiar voice sounded in his ears.
"Get ready for the party."
So Derrick immediately found a place to sit down as he always did, and began to acquiesce to his heartbeat, preparing to participate in the Tarot meeting.
