Mystery: Start with the Reader

Chapter 160: Farewell

At noon on Friday, Abner rushed to the steam train station to see off the "Desolate Ones" before he had time to eat lunch.

Speaking of which, he returned to the Essinger Detective Agency last night, and after telling the teacher the complete formula of "Erudite", he asked him about "Thousand Skills Phantom".

It's a pity that although Detective Essinger is somewhat sure of getting the "Crystal of the Phantom of Thousand Skills", he will have to wait until he returns to Lunburg to report on his duties at the end of the year...

Afterwards, Abner also held a ceremony and prayed to the "God of Knowledge and Wisdom", but he failed to get a response.

It seems that the God of Knowledge will not give me direct assistance...

Because he had already prepared in his heart, after all, the old dragon had to find a "tool man" even for news, so Abner was not disappointed.

...

On the platform of the steam train, an old man in a black formal suit and a half-height black top hat stepped out of the second-class carriage with his top hat in one hand and a suitcase in the other.

He doesn't look too old, only the corners of his eyes are slightly wrinkled, but his temples are completely white.

His name was Laurence Nord, and he was a public-school teacher from Conston, Mid-Hayshire.

As soon as Lawrence got out of the car, he casually glanced at the platform, and saw a tall figure over two meters standing not far away, surrounded by several young people.

And he recognized one of the young men with black hair and red eyes, and he was extremely impressed.

"Viscount Karen..." Lawrence murmured to himself. If the blood viscount hadn't passed by and helped in the disaster many years ago, few members of his family would have survived.

And because Lawrence was unwilling to be surrounded by negativity, depression, despair and other emotions in the current family, and unwilling to face the sighing and oppressive atmosphere every day, he found a reason to leave the Presbyterian Church and come to Backlund Find another half-brother Roberto and half-brother Sam.

Who would have thought that just after arriving in Backlund, he would meet a benefactor of the family.

He wanted to go over to have a chat, but he saw Viscount Karen and another pretty girl following the half-giant and boarding the steam train on the other side of the platform.

Only a young man with brown curly hair and copper-rimmed glasses was left on the platform, waving goodbye to them.

"Forget it... Maybe the Viscount has long forgotten that little thing back then... At least it was a small thing for him." Lawrence laughed at himself, then looked away, and left the station with his salute.

...

On the steam train, Captain Arsenov was still taciturn, as if he had no emotion about the parting.

Judy has a cheerful personality, and she was only a little bit reluctant when she said goodbye to Abner just now, but she has already recovered now, with a smile on her face again.

As for Viscount Karen, in his long life, there have been countless such parting scenes, and he has long been used to it.

"On the platform just now, it seems that someone is looking at you?" At this moment, Judy suddenly asked Karen who was sitting opposite.

Apparently, Lawrence's supposedly concealed gaze failed to fool the "biologist".

Karen nodded, and said indifferently, "I saved him once... Speaking of which, the 'picture book' your father gave you has something to do with his family."

Judy nodded thoughtfully when she heard the words, and said after a while, "He's dying...he has at most three months to live."

"I know, that's why I didn't go... Hey, it's better not to see." Karen sighed.

...

City of Tingen.

After lunch, Klein put on his hat and left the Blackthorn Security Company, and came to the "Shooting Club" at No. 3 Zouterand Street.

Pushing open the door and entering the reception hall, he didn't go directly to the shooting range belonging to the Nighthawks, but found a seat in the hall and sat down, holding the black cane with both hands and waiting patiently.

The place where he and Daxter agreed to meet was at this "Zotland Street Shooting Club"!

And Daxter is the informant he developed, one of the members of the Psychological Alchemy Association, he is just a standard rookie,

After all, his guide has gone crazy.

After waiting for a while, two minutes before one o'clock, Klein saw Daxter, who had a rather gentle demeanor, walk into the lobby of the "shooting club".

He was wearing a black silk top hat, a well-fitting tuxedo, a cane inlaid with silver in his hand, and a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on his face.

Daxter looked around for half a circle without attracting attention, and saw Klein who was nodding slightly, so he looked away, walked to the front desk, and applied for a shooting range and rented guns a little strangely.

After the two entered the same shooting range one after the other, Daxter asked in a deep voice, "Officer Moretti, why did you meet me this time?"

"I just want to ask you, do you need the formula of 'Mind Reader'?" Klein said frankly. He didn't hide his thoughts, after all, the opposite was an "audience", so it was not so easy to fool.

Ever since he got this recipe from the "Tower" at the Tarot Club, Klein had plans to sell it to Daxter. After all, after this period of observation, this gentleman's character is not bad, and he is backed by the "Psychological Alchemist Association", even if he is only a peripheral member, he will be able to get this formula sooner or later. If you don't sell it now, you may not have a chance in the future.

In addition, with this meeting with Daxter, he no longer needs to hide the potion formula, and can find sufficient excuses to hand it over to the captain, so as to accumulate more merit for him. Well, maybe you can get additional expense reimbursement.

It's a good deal to make two deals with a free formula... Klein thought with a better mood.

Daxter stared into his eyes, and after a moment of silence he asked, "What do you want from me?"

Gold pounds, of course! Klein almost blurted it out, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that it was not reserved enough, and he also had to consider the other party's financial resources, so he hesitated for a while before deciding, "I need you to closely observe the situation of Hood Eugene, and Report to me at any time...Of course, the formula will not be given to you for nothing, you need to pay 100 gold pounds in exchange...this is already very cheap."

"Officer, your words are not sincere enough, but the price part is true." Dust suddenly said calmly.

...

Looking at the steam train going away, Judy's promise "When you come to Feneport, I will treat you to Serbia's meringue pie" and Viscount Karen's "new gift as soon as possible" echoed in my ears. "Give it to him", Abner sighed with some disappointment.

Although he had only been with Judy and Karen for two weeks, he had already formed a friendship with them, so parting at this moment inevitably made Abner, who was not used to it, a little uncomfortable.

Shaking his head and throwing away these thoughts, Abner decided to go to the garden villa entrusted to him first, and if there were no problems, he would move in as soon as possible.

Since the mainstream newspapers have been overwhelmingly promoting him this morning as the "savior of Sieveras Field", the teacher's home has once again been surrounded by reporters, and even the normal entrusted business has been affected. If it weren't for him With the "clown mask", it may not be possible to come out to bid farewell to the "desolate ones".

Even for peace, he had to move as soon as possible.

...

28 Kingstor Street, Jorwood.

This is a three-story building with a small garden. The layout is not very large, but the interior decoration is exquisite, and one can tell that his previous owner was very tasteful.

Abner walked closer, took off the "clown mask" first, and then opened the door with a key.

Then, he saw a man and a woman coming out of the living room upon hearing the sound.
