Mystery: Start with the Reader

"The traces left by people from other city-states?" Derrick repeated Mr. "Tower"'s request and felt embarrassed. After all, the city had been abandoned for a long time. Even if people from other city-states had arrived and left traces, He couldn't tell whether it was original to that city or if it was left behind by visitors from other city-states...

Abner guessed his difficulty, so he added with a smile: "The traces of other city-states I am talking about are the ones that are very different from the civilization of Silver City and that ruined city, and can be recognized at a glance. "

"So that's it...I understand." "Sun" Derrick breathed a sigh of relief, and then said seriously, "I will help you pay attention."

"Everything should be based on your own safety. Don't forget what Mr. 'The Hanged Man' just taught you just for my sake." Abner gave another final warning.

For him, it's best to find the things in his "prophecy". If he can't find them, forget it...it's not a necessity anyway.

"Okay." Although Derrick answered like this, he decided to investigate the ruined city carefully while exploring.

And this is not contrary to the "tips" shared by Mr. "The Hanged Man". After all, what he said is that after entering the temple, "Don't look at things you shouldn't see, listen to things you shouldn't hear, and don't eat things you shouldn't eat." Eat, and don’t touch anything you shouldn’t touch.”…

The ruins of the city do not belong to the temple.

Although "Justice", "The Hanged Man" and others were curious about "Tower"'s entrustment to "Sun", they did not ask too much. After all, looking at Mr. "Tower"'s appearance, they did not want to say more.

After this topic, Alger looked at the ladies opposite, especially "Justice" and "Judgement", and asked:

“I want to know the changes in Backlund’s political situation after the death of Duke Negan.

"Also, will the risk of war increase as a result?"

Not long after he joined the Tarot Club, he entrusted Miss Justice to investigate whether the kingdom would go to war with Fusac... The final result was that Roen was not ready yet and had no intention of war.

——This information came from Susie’s eavesdropping in Earl 1’s study.

Audrey recalled the recent news she heard directly or indirectly:

“The death of Duke Negan caused a split in the House of Lords. Although his eldest son is about to inherit the title and become a member of the House of Lords, his prestige is not enough to quell the disputes.

“Nearly ten members of the House of Lords jointly proposed that newly-titled nobles also have the opportunity to obtain fixed seats.

“To put it simply, those who have been ennobled through political donations, charitable donations, and the purchase of corresponding land can become members of the House of Lords.

"As for the war... I want the Aurora Society to bear all the culpability, which has sent a big enough signal."

"Judgment" Xio also added: "MI9 failed to catch Bianca, the attaché of the Intis embassy who was pretending to be Mrs. Panis...

“But this still cannot hide the fact that Baron Larry is funded by Intis... Although the Owen envoy has repeatedly stated that it is just the private behavior of a defecting military attaché.

"However, according to my judgment, the most that Intis can do is hand over one person with enough 'weight' to take the blame. This matter will be settled.

"Given the pressure brought by Fusak, it is impossible for the Kingdom to really fall out with Intis."

After hearing this, "The Hanged Man" Alger breathed a sigh of relief and whispered, "There will indeed be no war in a short period of time." Then he commented on the proposal of the House of Lords in a slightly mocking tone:

"Don't nobles whose families have a certain history despise the kind of guy who gets the imperial title through abnormal means? Isn't their greatest pride and final glory a hereditary, fixed seat in the House of Lords?"

"Justice" Audrey didn't care about this, and only talked about another thing calmly:

"Fortunately, although the dispute has put many bills on hold, including but not limited to raising workers' compensation, improving working hours and revising the Poor Law, the unified examination for government employees proposed by Mr. 'Fool' is still progressing steadily and has not stopped! Hmm! , the investigation into Backlund’s air pollution situation is also in-depth.”

Obviously, what has been put on hold is the highlight of the "Black Emperor" ceremony! A strict and complex set of rules that defy normal circumstances? George III obviously wanted to wait until the Great Smog passed, and then he would naturally agree when the church was persecuting him...

Doing this can avoid the suspicion of the church to a great extent... although all true gods know it very well in their hearts...

Abner secretly shook his head, but he felt that George III's road to "becoming a god" might not be as smooth as in the original work... After all, the time traveler who wore the "Seal of Disaster" obviously knew the plot. Even if Russell Hearing only a few words does not mean there is no arrangement.

…

After returning to reality, Xio took off her disguise and left the safe house. Go to the MI9 headquarters at 9 Bellotto Street in the West District.

She wanted to first report the matter about the blond man reported by Mr. World to her boss, Her Highness Vera.

But as soon as he entered the yard, he saw Her Royal Highness Vera talking to a middle-aged man wearing a white wig across the lawn.

And I don’t recognize that man.

He had been Hugh's father's deputy and was currently Lord Chief of the Guard, Viscount Stratford.

Before Hugh met Abner, she had always thought that the only Viscount who had been promoted in her father's case had framed her father and was probably her enemy.

But now, Xio doesn't think so...

After all, is the chief of the palace guard enough to make Abner fearful?

Even if he was involved in his father's death, he was at most a minor character.

With this thought in mind, Xiu looked away calmly and walked towards His Highness's office, where he was ready to wait for His Highness' return.

Ten minutes later, after listening to Xio's report, Vera took out a portrait and said: "This is a new task assigned to us by the superiors. It was brought to us by the chief of the palace guard... Therefore, other things must be put aside first. .”

Xio glanced at the person in the portrait and found that it was a man with soft facial features and a bronze complexion.

There is also a simple introduction below the portrait: Faculty member of the History Department...

"What about the 'blond man' who colluded with the devil?" After Xio's eyes scanned the portrait, he still did not give up on Mr. World's report.

"You have no evidence... and we can't spare the manpower to investigate now..." At this point, Vera changed the topic and smiled, "However, I can disclose this matter to the Prime Minister, and I believe he will be happy to do so. Check it out.”

When Xio heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at the portrait carefully, and while looking at it, he asked: "What did this man commit?

"Even the chief of the palace guard is here."

"I don't know the details...but he seems to have broken into Thordrak's Palace!"

…

The capital of the Rhoside Islands, the city of generosity.

Alger Wilson walked out of the hotel and headed towards the underground trading market of the "Fragrant Leaf Bar".

After "Hercules" Ozil suffered a divine punishment and died, this extraordinary trading place changed its owner. Its reputation became more and more popular, and the level of extraordinary items that appeared also increased a lot.

Although this is due to the existence of "appraisers" and "notaries", it is also because "Sea Snake" Weaver is really good at business.

But this time, the "appraiser" and "notary" behind the scenes released several pages of "Roselvin's Notes" for sale...

For Alger, this is a treasure that cannot be missed! It is a must-have to please Mr. Fool!

Of course, if there were materials that Miss Justice needed, he would buy them without hesitation.

After all, you will never suffer a loss if you help that lady do the shopping.

…

In the East District of Backlund, Abner left his residence on "Black Palm Street", carrying the prepared lesson plan under his arm, and walked to the free school only ten meters away from the boundary of the East District.

However, as soon as he crossed the school gate, he saw an acquaintance walking out.

The man was wearing a hooded black robe, blue eye shadow and blush, and looked eerily beautiful.

It was Ms. Daly.
