Start with the Readers Chapter 434: Fake diary again
Latest website: Audrey, who finished piano practice in the piano room, glanced at the clock and found that the time for the Tarot Club was very close. So he returned to his bedroom.
When she passed the study of her father Earl Hall, she saw that the door was half closed, and there was a thick stack of documents on the table.
"I didn't have it before..." Audrey became curious, slowed down her pace, and winked at Susie, the big golden retriever dog. She has become more and more proficient in winking at dogs.
As for Susie, who has been a "spectator" for a long time, she can easily understand what the master wants her to do, but she occasionally pretends not to understand, and just wants to lie still.
Of course, this time it didn't pretend to be stupid, but trotted into the study, stretched out its two front legs, propped itself on the edge of the table, and stood upright.
It took a quick glance at the front page of the stack of files, returned to Audrey, and said in a low voice:
"Survey on the living conditions of all strata in the East District, Docklands and Factory Districts.
"Audrey, what does this mean?"
Survey on the living conditions of all strata in the East District, Docklands and Factory Districts? Why did Dad suddenly do this survey? Could it be that those cryptic hints I gave earlier took effect?
Audrey was puzzled for a while, and didn't bother to answer Susie's question.
She looked around and saw that no one was paying attention to herself, so she calmly entered Earl Hall's study, walked to the table and read the reports.
The investigator of the report at the top is a reporter named Mike Joseph... There are other field investigations made by other people from different angles...
Several of them even mentioned the spread of cults, and the collusion between some Extraordinary people and gangs... There is a holy emblem of the goddess at the bottom of the document...
Papa and the church both sent people to investigate? This is the aggregated file? No wonder at the banquet at noon, Dad discussed the anti-pollution bill and the smoke emission reduction bill with many committee members... Is this going to start with the pollution problem in the factory area, and improve the status quo of the East District, the dock area and the factory area little by little?
Hmm...Maybe Dad has the intention of using this incident to gain Hibbert's reputation...But it's a good thing anyway!
Phew... Audrey glanced at the wall clock in the study and saw that it was close to three o'clock, so she gave up on reading carefully and restored the document to its original state.
Before going out, she randomly picked up a book and disguised it as the purpose of coming in.
…
Bayam, "Aroma Manor".
Sitting in the living room, Abner looked at the uncomfortable guide Winter not far away, took a sip of coffee, and asked with a smile:
"Mr. Winter, have you considered it? I can offer you an annual salary of 30 pounds."
After a few days of observation, Abner felt that Winter was a very good-natured and capable young man, and he was well connected in Bayam, so he wanted to recruit him as his subordinate to help him deal with the situation. Some obvious things... such as purchasing materials, inquiring about news, and so on.
Although he already has a personal maid, Elaine, she is mainly responsible for managing the maids and financial expenses in this small castle... and according to that "contract", she cannot leave the manor without his permission .
As for the butler, Mr. Harvey, he had already expected that Abner would place his confidants in the manor, so he never recommended a personal servant to his new employer.
At this time, Winter was already moved. After a few days of getting along, he also felt that Mr. Blaine was a well-cultivated gentleman, and he was also a famous "heroic detective". He was one of his idols...
Of course, the most important thing is that the annual salary of 30 pounds is too tempting!
30 pounds may not seem like a lot, but in the colony, for people of Went's class, it is definitely a high salary. Even for Backlund's colleagues, most of them only have this amount.
You must know that he helped Abner with busy work for several days, and he was only paid 10 soli. For this, he also got 30% for the "service company" who introduced the job.
As for such "favorable" commissions, he can't receive them a few times a year.
Finally looking for a stable, decent job? Ruini, I finally have the possibility to give you a home... Wen Te held back the excitement in his heart, and said in a trembling voice:
"I am willing to serve you, Mr. Blaine."
"Very good, I will find a lawyer to draw up a contract as soon as possible." Abner nodded with satisfaction, but he was thinking in his heart: If Winter is consistent in the future, we can try to train him to be a Extraordinary, In this way, even if you buy Extraordinary items and materials, someone can do it for you...
And the initial sequence in my hand has a lot of Extraordinary characteristics, whether it is "Hunter", "Sailor" or "Corpse Collector" and "Sleepless"... well, as a "boss", maybe give It is the best choice for your own "employees" to provide "sleepless people"...
While complaining in his heart, Abner patted Winter's shoulder very kindly, and said with a smile: "I heard that you are from Simim Island, the westernmost island? I can advance your salary for one month, I will give you a few more days of vacation so that you can take your family to Bayam to settle down."
"I don't have any family anymore..." Wen Te shook his head in disappointment, then pulled himself together and said gratefully, "But I really need a short vacation... I, I have a girl I like, named Renee...I want to go back to Simim Island and confess to her...If she agrees, I will take her over..."
Winter was talking and suddenly found that Mr. Blaine on the opposite side was looking at him with a strange expression, and immediately came to his senses, feeling that he was a little carried away, so he hurriedly apologized:
"I'm sorry, Mr. Blaine. I... I shouldn't let my business bother you..."
Abner waved his hand when he heard the words, expressing that he didn't care, but he thought with some surprise in his heart: Reni? Isn't this Wen Te the unlucky guy in the original book who picked up the Extraordinary characteristic and carried it with him? I remember that in the original book, Klein turned into a dead man in order to play the "Faceless Man" and went to Renee to confess his love...but he was beaten out with a broom...
Speaking of which, the original owner of my body also died with extraordinary characteristics... Is this some kind of inexplicable fate?
After subduing his wandering thoughts, Abner encouraged Wen Te a few more words, and then let Elaine, who was standing by, advance 3 pounds from the account of the manor to Wen Te.
The male servant is also part of the manor, so the salary naturally cannot go to Abner's private account.
After Wen Te left gratefully, Elaine looked at the famous detective in front of her, with a smile on her lips, and asked seriously, "What is my annual salary?"
After getting along for more than a day, Elaine has a general understanding of Abner's character through the ability of "Hunter", and knows that he is not usually a difficult person to get along with, so her words gradually become casual.
After all, if you want to "provoke" the other party, you must first have a good understanding of it...
Although Elaine didn't intend to deliberately "provoke", the blood of the Sauron family has made this state instinctive.
I will send you back to the "Black Death" now, and you will be paid at least 1,000 pounds immediately... You still ask me for an annual salary? However, it is indeed strange that Elaine is not paid as a personal maid, and it may attract suspicion... Well, I will tell the housekeeper, Mr. Harvey, and just say that the salary of the "personal maid" should go to my private account.
Thinking about it, Abner said, "You don't have anything to spend now, so I'll keep it for you first."
Having a few words with the "Red Maid" who was locked down, Abner looked at the clock and saw that it was almost two o'clock, so he dismissed Elaine, returned to his bedroom, and used his spirituality to calm the surrounding area. Locked up.
"If nothing else happens, at this Tarot meeting, Sun will ask about Amon...but I can't tell him. After all, he is directly facing Amon's avatar. The more he knows, the more dangerous he will be. ...So I can only remind you a little bit...
"But if you can't tell the sun, it doesn't mean you can't tell Klein... let him know a little about Amon in advance, and be able to deal with the threat brought by that brat boy more safely..."
As for the way to tell Klein, Abner is going to forge a page of "Roselle's Diary" about Amon before the Tarot meeting.
More than half an hour later, Abner, who had thought about his words and wrote down the diary, called Elaine again and asked her to copy a copy at random. Tarot Club.
…
At exactly three o'clock, the beating of the wall clock was still reverberating. Fors, the "magician" who was a little drowsy from rushing to catch up on the manuscript, was submerged by the crimson illusory light that suddenly appeared, and came to the towering and majestic In the palace, it appeared on the side of the ancient long table.
She looked around, and saw that the lady "Justice" on the top of her side had stood up, hurriedly got up to follow, and greeted Mister Fool under her guidance:
"Good afternoon, Mister Fool"
After that, she watched Miss Justice greet "The Hanged Man", "Tower", "World", "Judgment" and herself respectively, and did not pause until she asked about "Sun".
At this time, even Forsi noticed that he seemed a little uneasy.
Could it be that he exposed the information of the Tarot Society? Fors, whose mind was jumping, felt tight, and asked almost at the same time as "Justice" Audrey:
"What are you worried about?"
Derrick "The Sun" pursed his lips~IndoMTL.com~Seeing that Mister Fool didn't stop him, he successfully "faked sick" and was sent to the bottom of the round tower for isolation treatment. Read it again, and then asked if the magical item in the round tower could detect the gray mist,
Hearing this question, "Justice" and "Magician" also looked at "The Fool" nervously.
How do I know... I don't even know what it is... However, there is no strange or powerful force trying to invade... Well, not even "Eternal Blazing Sun" and "True Creator" Found here...the problem shouldn't be too big...
Klein tapped the edge of the long bronze table with his fingers, and replied "relaxedly":
"Normally, it can't find it.
"But some magical items have strange effects."
Seeing Mr. Fool's "yes" answer, Derrick was relieved, and then remembered what the former leader of the exploration team said, and blurted out:
"Have you ever heard of Amon?"
