Mystery: The Witch and the Calamity

Chapter 153 Maric's Entrustment

what's the situation!

Announcing the commission to look for me in front of me, isn't that riding a donkey to find a donkey... Ahhh, what kind of messed-up metaphor is this!

Louise looked carefully at the male member who announced the commission. He was of medium build and his appearance was completely hidden by the mask. The tone of his speech just now had a clear feeling of coldness. I wonder if it was a disguise?

Soon, the portrait was passed to Louise by the waiter. She looked down and was very familiar with it, as if she had seen it somewhere...

Nonsense, the person in this portrait is myself, of course I am familiar with it... Louise secretly complained in her heart, after that, she returned the portrait to the waiter as if nothing had happened, and let it be passed on to the next member of the party.

"If clues are found, through what channels should I receive the bounty?" She asked aloud.

Louise thought that she couldn't continue to be passive, because a ridiculous idea suddenly appeared in her mind: If this continues, one day, all Beyonders in Backlund will know about this commission. Can't get out... So, she decided to take the initiative to investigate and find out who was looking for her, so as to avoid future troubles.

The tone of the man who issued the commission was still cold, and he replied in a low voice:

"I will issue the same commission at the Bar of the Brave. If you have any clues, you can find the bar owner Kaspers to receive the reward."

The Bar of the Brave... Louise thought about this familiar name in her heart, but she didn't know what to think of, and she became silent again.

Naturally, the other participating members couldn't provide effective clues, but it's hard to say how many people wrote down Louise's appearance and planned to search for it secretly... However, the reward of 100 pounds must not be enough to attract too many attentions. There aren't too many Beyonders who are willing to take action for this, and it shouldn't affect Louise's daily life.

Afterwards, the party came to an end smoothly, and there were no other unexpected episodes. All members left in an orderly manner under the arrangement of Mr. "Eye of Wisdom".

Louise walked out of the party house and appeared in the dark alley outside, looking up at the sky, the increasing fog was trying to block the light from the crimson moon, but unfortunately it was of no avail.

She glanced back at the "Brave Bar" not far away, then turned and left.

…………

The "Brave Bar" on weekends is full of people, but the hustle and bustle is still there.

Kaspers, the bar owner, is in pool room two, playing pool with one of his men, one of his few healthy hobbies.

Suddenly, there was a "creak" sound from the wooden door of the billiard room. It turned out that someone pushed it away from the outside. Looking around, I saw a familiar figure at the door.

"You go out first." Kaspers ordered to the men around him.

The young man put down the billiard cue, walked out of the billiard room without saying a word, and subconsciously glanced at the visitor from the corner of his eye. He was of medium build, with short hair, and looked as cold as a lump of ice. I couldn't help shivering.

When there were only two people left in the room, Kaspers, who was in charge of a group of gangsters under his command, who was fierce and indifferent all day, tried his best to pull out a smiling face, which made the scars on his face look a little hideous. His tone was enthusiastic Greeted:

"Mr. Maric, when did you come back?"

The cold man in front of him is none other than the defector of the "Rose School of Thought", a member of the "Temperance School", and the "living corpse" of Sequence Six, Maric.

His face was pale, and there was a lot of malice hidden in his eyes. He walked to the table and simply replied:

"Just came back."

Caspers looked around subconsciously, and found that there was no movement in the small room. He didn't know if it was a psychological effect. He felt that the temperature in the room had dropped a lot, and asked cautiously:

"Miss Sharon came back together?"

Maric gave a faint "hmm" as a response, without any intention of continuing the greeting, he pulled out a piece of parchment from his arms without delay, and said in a cold tone as if issuing an order:

"Find the woman in the portrait, her name is Louise."

Kaspers took the portrait and looked at it carefully for two seconds. He frowned heavily, as if thinking of something, and said in an uncertain tone:

"I seem to have seen this woman..."

"When?" A cold female voice suddenly sounded in the room.

Kaspers seemed to have expected it long ago, and was not frightened. He just turned his head when he heard the words, and he saw a woman in a black court dress in the mirror behind him.

This woman has light blonde hair, blue eyes, and a delicate appearance, but her face is extremely pale. She wears a small black soft hat, without any superfluous movements or expressions, she looks like a doll...it is Mali Qi's companion, the "wraith" of Sequence Five, Sharon.

"Miss Sharon."

Kaspers bowed slightly, and asked hello, but he didn't get a response, but he was used to it, and continued to try to remember in his mind, and finally answered:

"Last week, a woman who was five or six points similar to this portrait found me, with the purpose of joining the extraordinary party held by Mister 'Eye of Wisdom' through me."

"You promised her?" Maric asked, with a hint of disappointment in his cold tone.

Kaspers replied truthfully: "Yes, because the woman did not hide her Extraordinary identity."

In this way, at the party just now, when I released the commission, Louise was probably among the participating members, could it be the woman who asked how to get the bounty... Maric felt a burst of remorse out of thin air, He looked at Sharon, who was floating in mid-air, who shook her head invisibly, and then disappeared.

"Publish the commission," Maric ordered.

He clearly remembered the warnings of the three of Gerald, that Louise would take the initiative to find them as long as they issued a tracking request. Besides, there was no more efficient way to track down the other party.

…………

When Louise returned home, she found that Miss "Seer" seemed to have been waiting for a long time.

"Claudia politely declined your request to meet. It seems that she is a complete stranger to you," Katrin said.

Louise was silent for two seconds, not too surprised, because she no longer felt that the Abraham family was looking for her, so she just replied lightly:

"I see."

Catherine breathed a sigh of relief when she heard the words, and she continued to ask: "Since this clue has been cut off, where should we start investigating next?"

"No need." Louise denied, and continued to ask without stopping: "Don't run out tomorrow, there are more important things to do."

"The drama is about to end."
