Mystery: Start with the Reader

The feather hat has a beautiful shape and exquisite materials, and it can be seen from the hands of famous masters at a glance.

And it's not surprising that Abner would recognize it, because it was the gift that Karen brought to his sister through his hands...

So this little girl is Karen's younger sister who is less than a hundred years old? Did she go out to sea to explore? Does Karen know?

A lot of questions flashed in his mind, Abner didn't stare at the girl too much, and didn't reveal her identity, but let his eyes pass her and fell on another boy.

That young man also looked to be only sixteen or seventeen years old. He was handsome and fair-skinned, even better than Miss Gwen's... In addition, he had bright blue hair and blue-gray eyes, and he was looking at it with scrutiny Looking at Abner and Gaston.

Seeing Abner looking at her companions, Miss Gwen introduced him enthusiastically: "They are my new companions, the new 'shareholders' of the 'Alenheim'..."

shareholder? It seems that your ship can be equipped with cannons and modified armor. It turns out that there is a funder investing in it...

Well, the blood clans are all masters who are not short of money, as long as they don't spend all their money on "hobbies" like Emlyn, they must be very rich...

And that young man can tell from his face and posture that he is definitely born with a good background, and he doesn't know where he can't think about it and insists on taking risks at sea...

Hehe, he couldn't be a brat who ran away from home in a fit of anger, right?

Just when Abner was thinking wildly, the girl who was suspected to be Karen's sister didn't wait for Gwen to finish her introduction, she came forward familiarly, tilted her head, and said with a cute look: "My name is Lydia, I am very cute. Nice to meet you."

After finishing speaking, she pulled the boy over, pointed at him, and said with a smile: "This guy's name is Tran, he has a very awkward temper, he doesn't like to talk, and he doesn't fit in with others...don't bully him."

The boy named Tran broke away from Lydia's hand at once, and said with a flushed face, "Who's awkward! Also, don't use maneuvers while talking nonsense!"

The relationship is very good! It's just a little too lively... However, a centenarian girl persecutes a teenage boy... This is both visual...

The corners of Abner's mouth twitched when he saw this, and he deliberately ignored the previous farce, and greeted them with a smile: "I am also very glad to meet you."

Seeing her companions making a fuss in front of the guests, Miss Gwen couldn't help covering her forehead, and separated the two quarreling teenagers and girls.

Later, as the time for the Tarot Club to be held was getting closer and closer, Abner and Ms. Gwen made a plea, and then they came to Gwen under the leadership of the young man named Tran under the pretext of needing to deal with some matters. Wen prepared the cabin for him.

Mr. Gaston, on the other hand, didn't really want to enter the cabin, but stayed on the deck, watching the sea view.

When he walked to the door of the cabin, Tran, who had blue hair, hesitated for a moment before saying, "Brian, sir, don't listen to Lydia's nonsense, I... I just don't know how to get along with the sailors on the ship... ...not introverted, not talkative..."

He really cares about other people's opinions. This seems to be a young man who is seeking approval... Is this the reason why he came out to take risks alone?

Guessing baselessly in his heart, Abner smiled and comforted on the surface: "I understand that you and them have no common language.

I'm afraid you don't like to listen to what they talk about. I'm afraid you can only talk to Miss Lydia and Miss Gwen on this boat, right? In this way, those sailors may reject you even more, and even say some unpleasant things behind your back. "

"How do you know?" Tran's eyes widened in surprise. He didn't even tell the captain about some of the grievances he secretly suffered.

"This is a simple reasoning." Abner smiled and replied in a low voice.

Yes, this time it was one of his few but genuine reasoning.

"That's right, you are a well-known detective with a reputation throughout the country, how can I hide this problem from your eyes..." Tran suddenly said.

"Actually, you don't need to force yourself to cater to others." Abner could roughly guess what would happen to a young man who was out of place like Tran on the boat, so he simply advised him.

However, the young man pursed his lips and stubbornly did not reply. After a long while, he apologized and said, "I'm sorry, Detective Blaine, I wasted your time."

After speaking, he quickly left the cabin and returned to the deck.

The upbringing is very good, but the temper is really a bit awkward. I haven't been bullied too much by those sailors on the ship so far. I'm afraid Lydia helped behind the scenes, right?

As soon as Lydia met Mr. Gaston and me, she revealed this incident in front of Mr. Gaston and me. It was also an opportunity to stimulate him by joking in front of outsiders, so that he could get rid of the stubbornness of seeking approval, right?

I have to say that this kind of stimulation is really just right, it won't embarrass Tran too much, and it will also cryptically point out his problem...

Even, she may want to use me... That blood girl probably came out wearing that hat on purpose... She probably knew me long ago...

She has so many thoughts, even though Karen only regards her as a little girl, she has lived to be nearly a hundred years old after all...

Abner looked at Tran's back and shook his head, then glanced at a bat hiding in the corner, then closed the door and built a spiritual wall to isolate the inside and outside.

On the deck, Lydia, who was skillfully manipulating the sail, pouted, and looked worriedly at Tran who returned to the deck from the cabin.

...

After sealing the room with spirituality, Abner looked at his pocket watch, thinking that there was still some time, he arranged a ceremony to summon Silica first.

I don't know if it was an illusion, but Abner found that Silica's illusory feathers seemed to be a little more solid, and the visual effects of the original "projector" level have evolved into "AR" level...

After paying a bottle of "Amanda Elixir", Silica picked up the improvised letter written by Abner and disappeared into the cabin.

...

At exactly 3 o'clock in Backlund time, streaks of crimson light rose from the magnificent and ancient palace, outlining the same blurry different figures.

"Justice" Audrey led the crowd to stand up, looked up, and said briskly:

"Good afternoon, Mister Fool~"

During this period, Abner glanced at Xio who was diagonally opposite, and found that she was still dressed as a noble lady, but the style of the skirt had changed. It was not as gorgeous as before, but it was exquisite and elegant, and it was obviously more expensive. There are few necklaces and jewelry, but she really looks like a noble lady, I am afraid that Forsi will not be able to recognize her when she is sitting with me...

I don't know where she got this outfit.

While thinking this way in his heart, Abner saw that Miss "Justice" greeted everyone one by one, then looked at "The Fool" again, and said with the utmost restraint:

"The 'simple' task you entrusted has been completed."

She intentionally added an accent to the word "simple", just to confirm from Mister Fool whether Lanerus was removed by his favored one, and whether the death scene covered with tarot cards was a Tarot Society The iconic symbol of - this is what Viscount Greint specially came to share with her this morning.

Of course, she also wanted to know who was the "Iron Man" who helped the Nighthawks? Is he also a favored person of Mister Fool?

Klein pretended to smile plainly and said:

"I already know."

After saying this, he sighed leisurely:

"This era, this Backlund, this East District, the Docklands, and the Factory District are really hotbeds for evil gods to descend."

What? "The Hanged Man" Argel was stunned for a moment, suspecting that there was something wrong with his ears.

Why would a simple task be involved in the hotbed of evil gods coming?

Mister Fool's simple mission hides a deep purpose behind it? Is this a silent contest between gods?

"The Hanged Man" thought of a lot in an instant, but he forcibly endured the urge to ask immediately, and planned to first ask the Church of the Storms internal channels to ask what major events happened in Backlund recently.

At this time, "The World" also spoke out under Klein's control at the right time, talking about many real life cases of the poor in the Eastern District.

This shocked Audrey, who was getting to know the situation of the people at the bottom for the first time, and couldn't maintain the state of "audience" at all, and fell into deep shock and confusion.

And after regaining his senses, he was determined to do his best to guide his father to promote relevant reform bills.

And after hearing the double reed of "The Fool" and "The World", Abner, who knew Klein's purpose, also secretly sighed: The hotbed of evil gods is indeed a hotbed of evil gods, but Mr. Fool, you are actually helping George III. ...

He wanted to remind, but he thought that if the relevant bills were passed, it would indeed be of great help to the people at the bottom, so he didn't say much after thinking about it.

Moreover, this kind of reform is a general trend, and it is difficult to stop it... This is George III... No, it is where Adam is really powerful.

"Thank you, Mister Fool, thank you for saving Backlund, your exclamation also made me understand the root of the problem, thank you, Mister World, you let me know a lot of things I didn't understand before." Audrey restrained her emotions, and sincerely thanked the two gentlemen who sat at the top and bottom of the ancient long table.

Saved Backlund? How big of a deal did this make?

"The Hanged Man" Argel frowned. He looked around and found that neither the "Tower" nor the "Judgment" showed any surprise. They obviously knew it a long time ago...

Is it only "the sun" who is as confused as I am? Alger laughed at himself.

At this time, Miss Xio interjected to remind: "As far as I know, when the evil god of destruction descended, an envoy of the Aurora Order escaped from Lord Sesima, the Sword of the Goddess... With the usual practice of those lunatics, it is very There may be retaliation in the future... If anyone lives in Backlund, be careful."

Are there really evil gods trying to descend? Which one is it? Is the real creator? Mister Fool's mission was originally aimed at the "True Creator"?

That's it, I said how a big man like "The Fool" would pay attention to a small fraudster.

From this point of view, the "Fool" and the "True Creator" are sworn enemies!

"The Hanged Man" Alger thought of this, and then glanced at "Judgment" diagonally opposite, thinking: Miss "Judgment" should be an official Extraordinary, otherwise she wouldn't know the details.

I just don't know if she is a "Nighthawk", or a member of "Mechanical Heart" or "MI9".

And what is the background of Mr. "Tower" who is familiar with her and has a close relationship with her?
