Mystery: Good Witch

The truth behind Chapter 695 is shocking...

It was like I was the middle-aged man who released his inner wildness, and he was the innocent girl who was raped...

Angel watched in silence as Syndras resolutely jumped from the third floor, without any reaction.

Because she found that the "unlucky" baron's belt had been hung on the protrusion on the balcony railing. The tanned and tough calfskin tied the baron firmly to the railing, leaving him dancing outside the balcony in dishevel, not knowing whether to climb up first or break free from the belt and continue his "confession".

It seems that the magical item made by Miss Justice through the Beyonder characteristic of "Disaster Priest" has not yet taken effect. This is why things are not going well for the people around her. Even those who committed suicide were hung outside the window... Hmm, because I am already Sequence 4, this item has almost no effect on me?
Angel glanced at the dark blue hairpin on Audrey's blonde hair and muttered to himself. Together with this noble lady who seemed weak after being promoted to Sequence 6 but was actually stronger than an adult man, they pulled the struggling Baron Syndras back from the outside of the balcony. Of course, they also did not let go of his belt hanging on the bulge.

Before closing the balcony door, Angel looked down and found that his gardener was on the other side of the garden and had not noticed what was happening upstairs. The nearby streets were also a little quiet because of the hot afternoon sun.

If someone saw a baron hanging outside my balcony, I'm afraid all kinds of gossip would spread throughout Backlund the next day...

Thinking of this, she threw the baron on the carpet with a hint of resentment and said with a mocking tone:

"My Lord Baron, I guess you didn't just want to hang on the balcony to enjoy the breeze. So, are you going to let me bear the suspicion of murdering a noble?"

What's more, there is dirt ground below, and falling from the third floor will not kill people. If you want to end your life, you can climb the bell tower of the Holy Wind Cathedral of the Storm Church!
After being scolded by her, Sindras sat against the wall, holding his knees with one hand and touching his forehead with the other, shaking his head slowly, as if he had just woken up from a nightmare, and squeezed out a low voice from his throat:

"I... just wanted to calm down on the balcony, but when I thought about the fact that this matter would probably be known by my wife and daughter, and would be widely publicized by other competitors who were eyeing me, causing my friends to stay away from me and my partners to abandon me, the three bankruptcies deep in my memory came to my mind... Then, one thought overwhelmed all my thoughts: Maybe the only way to get relief is to jump off the balcony."

This was not the idea of ​​a mature businessman or an ambitious nobleman... Angel glanced at Audrey secretly and found that this "audience" nodded hesitantly, as if confirming Angel's idea.

Sure enough, his negative emotions were also caused by that "audience"...

After the Baron's efforts, Angel can now finally confirm the whole picture of this series of events.

There is no doubt that the audience member was not targeting me, nor the unexpected Audrey, but Baron Sinderas himself. He did not need to confirm when and where the Baron would "explode". He only needed to hint to the other party that he could appropriately lower his self-control when he was alone with others and release his inner primitive desires, and he would do something that was not in line with the Loen culture.

Regardless of whether he was stopped halfway or succeeded accidentally, the "guilt" that was deliberately magnified afterwards would make Baron Sindras feel ashamed, and he would use some drastic means to "settle the matter", such as killing people to silence them, or committing suicide. No matter what the behavior, as long as someone died, the matter could not be covered up, and the baron would inevitably face disgrace.

This, isn't this the smear method he originally intended to use on Klein... Of course, unlike his threats which were merely verbal, the "audience member" actually did it, and almost succeeded. If it weren't for Audrey's "lucky hairpin" still being effective, I would have had no choice but to use my extraordinary ability to save the Baron... Of course, this was not considered by the "audience member". In his opinion, Audrey and I should be powerless to stop the Baron from committing suicide.

From the time when Sindras became interested in value investing, Coim, Ms. Mary's rebellion, Caron's suicide after selling his shares, Klein being framed and trying to ease the relationship through me... one thing after another was linked together, with the purpose of getting this Conservative's money bag involved, and eventually being imprisoned and losing everything?
Thinking of this, Angel looked at the Baron, who looked a little dejected but at least did not want to commit suicide, with sympathy, and could not help but said:

"Your Excellency the Baron, I suggest that you go to the Storm Church right now and seek their help."

Hearing this, Sindras looked up and met those purple eyes filled with pity.

……

After seeing off the embarrassed Baron Syndras, Angel was finally able to reminisce with Miss Justice of the Tarot Club.

Judging from the tacit cooperation between the two just now, Angel no longer has the need and the ability to hide his identity.

My actions showed that I knew she was a Beyonder of the Audience Path, and her cooperation also showed that she knew I knew this... Angel stopped thinking before his thoughts fell into an infinite loop and said:

"What do you think of Baron Sinderas's behavior just now?"

Audrey seemed a little surprised by Angel's direct question, and replied after a moment:
"I think it's a bit strange... This is not because of his reckless behavior, but because the 'influence' on him is too simple and crude. Even if I, a Sequence 6 'hypnotist', want to frame him, I won't be so direct, but will use a more subtle method...

"Of course, the direct benefit is that it works. Whether it's suggestion or hypnosis, if you want to make a person commit suicide, the target will resist from the bottom of their heart. Even if it's used on ordinary people, it's easy to fail. But this 'audience' cleverly combined two suggestions, 'releasing desire' and 'guilt', and almost achieved this."

"Even an ordinary person? Do you think Sindras is also a Beyonder?"

Angel asked curiously. "He at least knows some knowledge of the occult, and he is not as ignorant as he seems... When it comes to seeking refuge in the Storm Church, he is not suspicious, but distrustful. This may be related to his past experiences, or he may be hiding some secrets that cannot be known by the church, so he has never sought help from the church."

This is consistent with my opinion. It is unlikely that a businessman who has gone bankrupt three times and returned to the top, a baron who has the support of the Conservative Party and is quite ambiguous with the New Party, is completely unaware of the world of occultism. But this means that the "audience" who can easily hypnotize and suggest this baron is likely to be a high-sequence Beyonder...

Thinking of this, Angel felt a headache again. She knew that this time she and Audrey were just affected by the plan of the "audience" and were not the direct target. However, in the subsequent official Beyonder review and the investigation after the "audience" failed, her identity might be exposed, and then...

...The revenge of a High-Sequence Beyonder hiding nearby would probably be quite troublesome.

Fortunately, I am also a High-Sequence Beyonder. As long as I find out the other party’s identity, it will be time for me to strike back... Angel muttered, and turned his gaze back to the young version of the "audience" in front of him.

"So, Miss Audrey, what is the matter that brings you to visit me today?"

she asked with a smile.

----

Monday afternoon at 3 o'clock.

Deep red lights flashed, and vague figures appeared in the magnificent palace in the gray fog.

"Good afternoon, Mr. Fool, good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen."

With the greetings from Miss Justice, the Tarot Club was convened again after a week's vacation.

“Mr. Fool, I found a new page in Emperor Roselle’s diary.”

Angel spoke first. In addition to the magical items, extraordinary characteristics and clues about the "Man in the Mirror" during her trip to Trier, she also obtained five pages of Roselle's diary. Of course, she decided to contribute only one page a week, so that it could be delayed for more than a month and the Tarot Club would not develop an involutionary trend.

After hearing her words, the "magician" Fors seemed to understand something and silently changed the three pages of the diary he was about to present to one page.

Unlike the two members who were passive and lazy, Cattleya pushed her glasses on the bridge of her nose, saluted the Fool, and then said:
"Dear Mr. Fool, there are three pages of diary this time."

At this moment, she felt that the two female members beside her were looking at her with deep confusion.

That’s because our goals are different. You are completing Mr. Fool’s mission, and I am completing the Queen’s… She secretly excused herself for her “involution”, and quickly materialized three pages of a diary provided by the “mysterious queen” Bernadette, making them appear in front of Mr. Fool.

As the reading time exclusive to fools began, Angel also secretly glanced at the noble girl next to him.

The "Justice" lady once again exposed her identity and easily recognized her as the "Queen".

Of course, considering the possible existence of high-sequence "audiences", the two did not discuss this matter in the real world. After Baron Sinderus left yesterday afternoon, Audrey only invited Angel to participate in her literary salon and expressed her intention to serve as a director of the "Loen Charity Student Aid Fund". There was no content involving the Tarot Club.

Let's talk about everything at the Tarot Club...

After Mr. Fool announced that free communication could begin, Angel immediately applied for a private communication with Justice.

"Ms. Justice, what I want to know is how you recognized me?"

She forced a kind smile and asked Audrey, whose blond hair was tied behind her head and whose face was blurred.
