Mystery: Start with the Reader

The ruins of the Fusac Empire near Port Indo, Abner had already noticed in the reward on the fifth floor of the "Dream Labyrinth Tower", that is, the diary of Police Officer Basharov.

It's just that Miss Justice's information is more detailed and specific.

But Abner did not expect that there would be a portrait of Mr. Ards in that ruin...

Is that the stronghold of a certain life of Mr. Ards? Or one of his sleeping places? While Abner was guessing in his mind, he asked, "Is there a specific location for that ruin?"

"It's not...justice." The lady shook her head regretfully, then glanced at Abner, vaguely aware that the other party was a little surprised, as if she recognized the person in the painting, but she didn't ask any more questions, and decided to check it out privately after going back. After checking, he changed the subject and said, "However, that caravan member is an Extraordinary himself. He guessed in the letter to his illegitimate son that the ruins should not be in the real world, but a fog that suddenly appeared. brought their ships there.

"After all, they have not deviated from the course and have been driving in the channel."

Abner nodded when he heard the words, and felt that this was reasonable, otherwise the ruins would have been found by Feysac's official Extraordinary people long ago.

Judging from the notebook he got before, a fishing boat strayed into it more than ten years ago, but because no one found it later, it didn't attract attention...

"Well, when Hugh returns to Backlund, I'll 'teleport' to the mountain with hot springs on the outskirts of Port Indo, and look up the police officer Basharov who wrote the diary, maybe I can get more useful information from him .

"After finding the ruins, if the layout inside is troublesome, you can ask Mr. Ards for help... After all, it might be good for him to retrieve his memory, so he probably won't refuse."

Feeling preoccupied, Abner looked at Audrey who was diagonally opposite, and said with a smile, "Thank you for the information, Miss Justice."

"You're welcome, as long as you are satisfied... This is the reward I owed you before, Mr. Tower. Justice." Audrey also responded with a smile.

"I'm very satisfied." The corner of Abner's lips curled slightly. If the "Bone Dragon" can be produced before the new year, then he may be able to intervene in the "Great Smog" incident... at least some innocent ordinary people can be saved. people.

Although this has nothing to do with him, it is one of the "regrets" when he read books in the past. If there is nothing he can do, it's fine, but if he can do what he can and it's not too dangerous, he doesn't mind lending a helping hand... This is his has always been the code of conduct.

Then, the scene was quiet for a few seconds. Derrick the "Sun" saw that no one was sharing his knowledge, so he adjusted his sitting posture, looked at Alger, hesitated and said:

"Mr. 'The Hanged Man', I have successfully used the item with the aura of 'Fallen Creator' provided by Mr. 'World' according to your teachings to expose Dak's problem, and to kill the bug left by Amon. throw it out...

"Later, relying on Mister Fool's protection, I managed to hide from the six-member council's inquiries..."

Since Mr. "Tower" developed the "graphic application" of "The Fool" very early on, Derrick "Sun" did not clumsily rely on verbal descriptions, but after obtaining Mr. "Fool"'s consent, he realized There are pictures that can be recalled, and they are combined with dry explanations.

In this way, everyone present intuitively saw the weirdness of the member of the exploration team named "Dark", and even the so-called Dumu fruit, which makes a crisp sound when bitten, presents a After a piece of bloody, pale-skinned human finger appeared, "Justice" Audrey, "Magician" Forsi, and even Mister "Fool" and "Tower" all experienced stomach cramps. , The sour liquid almost blurted out.

"There is no doubt that he has been polluted by the 'Fallen Creator'. The Hanged Man." Alger calmly concluded.

Then, after seeing the "monitor" come out of the shadows and control Dak, and Derrick's "acting skills" superbly dedicated a set of "sacrifice", "spitting insects", and "faking a coma" after the show,

As a matter of course, the "monitor" was hidden from the truth, misleading the other party's judgment.

Seeing this, Alger nodded in satisfaction and said, "Yes, you are very talented."

Is "acting" a boss a talent for "old fritters"? Abner and Klein complained in their hearts at the same time when they heard this.

But Audrey sighed quietly: "Sun" is such a pure child, he was polluted by the "Hanged Man" just like that... Speaking of it, the "True Creator" seems to be the image of the Hanged Giant, and he also likes to "pollute" "Others... This is what Emperor Roselle said, there are only wrong names, no wrong nicknames?

A big man who is good at acting...Miss "Temperance" moved her eyes slightly, and said a sentence silently in her heart.

As for Fors, after recovering from the nausea, she started to stare at those "Dumu fruits" and collect "curiosity hunting" materials for her novel.

This made Xio beside her even more worried: Is she already hungry to the point of wanting to eat? Do you want Mister Fool to help "give" her something to eat?

At this time, Derrick the Sun had already played all the "Memories". He looked around at the three gentlemen of "The Hanged Man", "Tower", and "World", and asked hesitantly:

"The Chief has sent me home...does that mean I'm cleared of suspicion?"

"The Hanged Man" Argel glanced at "The World" and "Tower", and saw that they didn't mean to answer, so he answered while thinking:

"Your 'performance' conveys the message to your chief: Amon and the mastermind behind Pollution Dak are mortal enemies... You went to the training ground to observe the exploration team and report them. The two things are Amon An attempt without exposing myself...

"And the mastermind behind Pollution Dak also vaguely noticed your weirdness, so he sent Dak to control you. The blood-stained scalp and fingers are the props to achieve the goal... In the end, in order to destroy the plan of the mastermind behind the scenes, Amon lost a clone."

Having said that, he saw "The Sun" nodded subconsciously, and continued,

"But your chief won't trust you so easily, even if you passed the 'inquiry', if he didn't have this vigilance, the City of Silver would have been destroyed long ago.

"So, there will be no less temptations in the future... I guess he will not restrict your activities, but he will definitely spy on you, and even arrange tasks for you normally...

"You should not show abnormalities for a while... that is to say, try not to hold rituals of 'sacrificing' or 'receiving gifts'.

"When several trials fail to produce the expected results, your chief will naturally temporarily believe that you are indeed free from Amon's control."

Mr. "The Hanged Man" is really experienced, as if everyone is following his instructions... Derrick "Sun" remembered it firmly, and asked: "How can I tell which tasks are from the chief?" What about 'exploration'?"

"The Hanged Man" glanced at him sideways, and said calmly, "No, it's better that you don't know how to tell the difference, so that it's more real and more likely to pass the test."

"Sun" blinked, a little puzzled, but didn't ask any more questions, and only kept Mr. "Hanged Man"'s words in his heart.

...

Bayam, Aroma Manor.

Abner and Hugh had just returned to reality from the "Tarot Society", when there was a knock on the bedroom door.

Through induction, Abner found that it was his red maid Elaine who knocked on the door, so he asked her to wait for a while until Hugh changed into his usual clothes.

About two minutes later, Elaine heard "Come in", and then opened the door and walked in.

She glanced at her employer and that Miss Hugh, and sniffed, with a puzzled expression on her face, because it was a little different from what she had imagined...

However, due to her duties as a maid, she quickly recovered and reported:

"A military officer has just sent an order that Miss Hugh must return to the team before six o'clock in the evening."

"What's the matter?" Xio asked, frowning.

The news she got before was that there would be no tasks until Wednesday, because she had to wait for His Royal Highness Vera to wait for someone to return.

"Yes, the military has no intention of keeping it secret..." Elaine nodded and relayed,

"Catch Baron Larry!"
