Mystery: Lucky One

Chapter 33 Chapter 33 Uneasy restlessness

Sesima soon left Blackthorn Security again.

That injury seemed to be a signal, and he had to get busy afterwards - Mr. A changed his policy for unknown reasons, and he began to hunt the official Beyonder team.

After Mr. A stopped trying to avoid the official Beyonders, the three-man official Beyonder team was no match for Mr. A at all.

But the official extraordinary people cannot help but go out - there are always extraordinary events that need to be dealt with, and even if there are not, other members of the Aurora Society will cause extraordinary events.

The large influx of low-level members of the Aurora Society has effectively contained the official Beyonders. After all, the value of the madmen who can be mass-produced as consumables in the Aurora Society is obviously different from the carefully selected official Beyonders. A You may not care about the life and death of those lunatics, but the three major churches cannot care about the life and death of the extraordinary people at the bottom.

If Alice were older and had more social experience, maybe she would realize that the actions of Mr. A and the Aurora Society were leading things in a very dangerous direction - insufficient police force.

When all the official Beyonders are busy and tense due to their crazy behaviors, the real danger will take advantage of the situation.

But unfortunately, the busy official Extraordinaries have no energy to think deeply about all this, and the only leisurely Alice has no experience in this. She can only feel the increasing pressure as the unknown danger approaches step by step. An uneasiness that is palpable and increasingly difficult to ignore.

Troubled by this uneasiness and the boredom of not being able to go out, Alice ushered in the next Monday restlessly.

"Good afternoon, Mr. Fool! Good afternoon, Mr. Hanged Man! Good afternoon, Mr. Sun! Good afternoon, Miss Destiny!"

Audrey's usual cheerful and brisk voice came, which calmed Alice's uneasiness. She pulled a smile from the corner of her mouth: "Good afternoon, Miss Justice."

As an "audience", Audrey, of course, just ignored Alice's emotional discomfort: "Miss Destiny, you seem to be in a bad mood, is it because of the heir of the evil god?"

"No," Alice leaned back in her chair and calmed herself down before answering the question, "My spirituality may be trying to warn me about something, but I haven't been able to figure out what it is... then It’s a pretty bad experience, it’s like someone is shouting in your head with a loudspeaker, and you’re trying hard to hear what he’s shouting, but you can’t hear anything.”

This vivid metaphor made Audrey understand Alice's troubles at once, and she thoughtfully expressed some sympathy: "I think it must be very uncomfortable."

Alice smiled weakly, and then showed an attitude of "I don't want to talk now" - letting her thoughts go and ignoring people. This is her most common attitude this week, because she has no way to make herself very busy.

Audrey thoughtfully stopped asking. She looked at Klein, who was sitting at the head table, and said after receiving the answer: "Dear Mr. Fool, did you know that your beloved has received the 300 gold pounds in compensation?"

Alice... Unfortunately, Alice doesn't even have the energy to complain now. She just wants time to pass quickly, and it's best to jump to the end of the matter.

As one of the insiders of the matter, Klein, who had tried to ask Alice to do divination above the gray mist and to help Alice do divination above the gray mist, but to no avail, had nothing to do about it.

Therefore, Klein, who had repeatedly confirmed the money in his account, replied nonchalantly in the tone of Mr. Fool: "I have not paid attention to this matter, but since my beloved did not ask for additional help, it should have been received. .”

"This is great!" Audrey felt relieved and her tone of voice became a little more cheerful when she spoke, "Mr. 'The Hanged Man', there has been progress in Qilingers' matter."

Alger immediately sat upright and stopped exploring the origin of Alice's condition - Alice did not even ask about the situation of the "monster" who was an Extraordinary. Alger asked with a voice that could not contain his joy: "Where is he?"

"Unfortunately, as soon as we discovered his traces, he became aware of our investigation and killed the relevant personnel." Audrey told the story in detail and described the subsequent investigation ideas.

Alger nodded slightly, indicating that he would pay attention, and then looked at Klein: "Dear Mr. Fool, if we find out the true purpose of Qilingos and the very important and magical item he is trying to get, What it is, please allow me to recite your name and tell you through rituals."

"Okay." Mr. Fool nodded gently and agreed to Alger's last effort.

So Alger quietly breathed a sigh of relief, lowered his head, and responded humbly: "Please allow me to praise you in advance for listening."

Then, Alger looked at Alice: "Miss Destiny, the Extraordinary of the 'Monster' path plans to stay in Pulitzer Harbor for a while, waiting for a 'destined encounter'."

After being called, Alice had to pull herself back from her idle thoughts to listen to what Alger said, and then she heard Alger's deliberately serious tone.

"Destined encounter?" Alice repeated this sentence with a strange expression. It sounded like something that would appear in some vulgar plot.

"These are his exact words." Alger replied.

"..." Alice frowned, but she chose to continue asking, "So, I assume, if I want to find him, what should I do?"

"...He said that all encounters are inevitable by fate." Alger repeated in an incomprehensible tone.

"..." Alice pinched her eyebrows with a headache. She suddenly felt that she understood Angelica's mood when she saw her throwing the coin.

"Anyway, thank you for your help, Mr. Hanged Man. This can offset part of the debt." Alice took a deep breath. Although she could not get any clues through the so-called "destined encounter", at least she was sure The man was in Pulitzer Harbour—though that still didn't do much for her.

Alger agreed to the matter unceremoniously, and then said to Klein: "Mr. Fool, I am about to obtain a batch of Emperor Russell's diaries. I believe that I can present them to you next time, or at the next gathering. you."

Klein nodded and responded with a slightly pleasant tone: "Very good."

...But what should he pay the Hanged Man with? Alice, who returned her attention to the party, couldn't help but feel a little confused because of Klein's behavior.
