Mystery: Shadow of Order - Chapter 241
“A large number of beasts appeared in the sewers in the eastern part of Backlund and the bridge area. They showed the strength and wisdom far beyond ordinary beasts, but they did not reach the level of extraordinary creatures. After sending people to investigate, they found members of the Aurora Society. I initially suspect that the Aurora will make a big move soon.”
Except for Derrick Berg the “sun” who didn’t know what the Aurora would be, the rest of the members were stunned. The Aurora is not only a secret organization, but more importantly, almost all of its members were lunatics, and no one knew what they would do. It wouldn’t be surprising to do something crazy like that.
Rawls crossed his fingers and straightened slightly:
“This may be related to the real incident that happened in Tingen some time ago… the descendant of the fallen creator, the lunatic group of the Aurora Society may be out of revenge. In response to the possible revenge of the Aurora Society, the Church of the Evernight Church sent an archbishop to Tingen. But compared to Tingen, who has only 20,000 to 300,000 people, Backlund may be the focus of their revenge.”
Tingen… Hearing this word, Klein inevitably felt a little down, but he knew that this was not the time he missed. With an archbishop who was at least Sequence 5 sitting in town, Tingen would be safe. It’s just that the beasts in the sewers mentioned by the “Emperor” have shadows of members of the Aurora Society, which is not necessarily true!
The “Emperor” didn’t know that Lanvus and Ince Zangwill, who might carry the true creator divinity, came to Tingen, so those beasts may not be members of the Aurora Society, but also Lanvus and Ince Zangwill. Gerwell.
The former is more likely, after all, Ince Zangwill is likely to have been promoted to a demigod now, while Lanvus is only a “scam master” of Sequence 8. Moreover, Lan Erwus blasphemed the true creator in the event of the descendant of the evil god, and it is very likely that he will be hunted down by the people of the Aurora Society.
Maybe I should go to the sewers… But considering Backlund’s extensive sewers, I have to ask Joel and the others about the specific route first.
“Mr. Emperor, don’t the three major churches and MI9 take any measures?”
Audrey felt that she could probably infer the identity of the “Emperor”, a collateral child of a certain Augustus family, working in MI9. She learned a little about the composition of MI9 from Cons, the youngest son of her friend Viscount Lierson, who entered MI9 after graduating from college.
In addition to being responsible for collecting intelligence from various countries and providing reference for the military and the cabinet, MI9 also has a department dedicated to Beyonder events and serving the royal family. It can even be said that there is almost nothing in the Kingdom of Loen that MI9 cannot manage. arrived.
Rawls was silent for a while, his eyes stopped on Justice, and his voice was deep:
“The Church of Evernight should take some measures. After all, the target of revenge may be them, but neither the East District nor the Bridge District are under the jurisdiction of the ‘Night Watchers’. I don’t know if the Church of Storms and the Church of Steam will deal with it.
As for MI9, because of the construction of the ironclad, some members have been on duty in the shipyard, the Ship Research Institute, and the Artillery Research Institute. Recently, clues about the manuscript of Hermothein’s third-generation difference engine suddenly came out, and the intelligence organizations of Feysac and Intis were all in action, and it was difficult to assign people to deal with these matters. ”
For a long time, Rawls has not figured out his position in the Tarot Club, that is, what most members consider his identity in reality. Audrey came from a great noble, and behind Alger is the Church of Storms. Klein knows Derrick’s identity. Fors was also introduced by Audrey, but what is Rawls’ actual identity?
He didn’t intend to reveal his real identity, but it was difficult for him to hide it from the “audience” and “divine experts”. The best choice was to deliberately show an identity. After letting Hugh enter MI9, and impersonating MI9’s executives to recruit Ian, Rawls knew what kind of identity he should show.
Although Audrey was asking about the three major churches and MI9, Rawls knew that she had already determined that the “Emperor” was from MI9. Although the veteran “The Hanged Man” and the god-like “The Fool” did not have any special performances, Fors the “Magician”‘s performance after his answer also proved that she also believed that the “Emperor” was from MI9.
It turns out that Mr. “Emperor” is a member of MI9! It’s just that Xio hasn’t joined MI9 yet, and she still doesn’t understand the internal structure of MI9. Even the official member has only seen one… Fors hardly concealed her performance. As a newcomer, she looked up and down the “Emperor” , seems to want to remember him who was obscured by the gray fog.
Klein, who felt that he had already gained a lot, glanced at the “Emperor” who had almost no longer avoided avoiding and was born in MI9, sighed inwardly, and felt more and more that his Tarot Club was a “Party of Two Five Boys”.
“That’s it for today’s party.”
…
The ancient and magnificent hall disappeared, and the gray fog in front of him dissipated. Fors rubbed his sleepy eyes and got up from the bed. He glanced around and found that Alysia did not arrive suddenly, and he was relieved.
When she came to the balcony, she quietly looked at the person diagonally across from the gap between the curtains. She shook her head. The Church of Storms’ surveillance is not over yet. When will these days end?
He glanced at the wall clock and found that the time had already pointed to four o’clock. Forsi held his chin. The chance of taking a break at home at this time was very low, but it was very likely that Arishia would come back at night. Go home later.
Well, we have to observe whether the “acting method” has any effect. There should be. Both Alysia and Mr. Fool said that the acting method is useful… Hugh, this idiot, is usually an “arbiter”, and unknowingly meets the requirements of the “acting method”, and I don’t know Did she finish digesting the potion when she became a “sheriff”? Today, I will tell her how to play it first, and I will also find a way to play the “master trick”. Just how to play this, go to the circus? The surveillance of the Church of the Storm is still going on, so I can’t act in front of them, can I? With that, it is said that in order to write a new book, I went to experience life…
…
At No. 15 Minsk Street, Klein, who was wearing a half-height silk top hat and a formal tuxedo suit, carried a cane and confirmed that his exaggerated golden watch chain was leaking outside. He nodded in satisfaction and pushed the door to leave.
He is going to take a look at the nearby bridge area, mainly to observe the distribution of sewers there, and then he can ask Joel and the others to inquire about the relevant situation. They all wandered in the bridge area before, and they must have a good understanding of the situation of the sewers.
Well, when you go to Joel and the others, you still need to bring some gifts. The food was delivered yesterday, or you can buy some candy! It’s not expensive and suitable for children… By the way, Joel said before that there is a candy store in the Bridge District. Ian used to work there and brought them some. It tasted delicious and went there to buy it!
…
In Tingen, on the balcony of the hotel near the bank of the Hoy River, Rawls was lying on a chaise longue, letting the warm sunshine at noon shone on his body, and the cool breeze blowing from the river from time to time.
On the small table next to him are two books and a dozen stacks of dossier materials. On the spines of the two books are printed in cursive style Loen words, “Insane Asylum”, “Psychology and Spirit”, placed on top It’s “Insane Asylum”.
In addition to the title of the book on the cover, there is an introduction to the author and a row of small print, “Author Dust Goodrian Greenhull Asylum Doctor”, “Are you sure the asylum are lunatics? They may be more sober than you think. Greenhull Asylum Doctor Dust Guderian shows you the real asylum.”
The insane asylums are naturally full of lunatics, but the living conditions of these lunatics are much better than in the workhouses. They do not need to work but can enjoy three meals a day. In order to do this, the madhouse must make a profit, and the way to make money is to collect tickets for tourists to visit the madhouse.
For people in this era, there is no difference between a lunatic asylum and a zoo, and it is even more ornamental, and the joy it brings is far higher than the circus of the circus, the drama of the grand theater… Even the workers at the bottom can afford the tickets, Add a touch of color to your monotonous and boring life.
The files on the coffee table are stacked on top of each other, but it can be clearly judged from the exposed text that these files are all related to one person, the internationally renowned painter and landscape master Stephen Mossos. Almost all of the people in the file were people who studied painting with him, but some of these people gave up painting completely, some went to madhouses, and some disappeared…
Rawls, who was lying on the reclining chair, took a document and read it with great interest. There was a black and white photo of the owner of the document. He was young, handsome, and all the good adjectives can be given to the boy in the photo, which can be clearly stated in the age column. Writes 26 years old…
Throwing Daniel Elliott’s information on the coffee table, Rawls sat up straight and stretched his back, his eyes swept across the Hoy River, and finally landed on the black and white photo, Daniel’s face in the photo was full of sunshine The smile was almost the same as the two he had seen before.
These materials were collected by Lawyer Merino from the Lincoln Law School. As a royal barrister and a top figure in the legal field of the Loen Kingdom, it was very easy to obtain these materials from the Akhova Police Department.
As for those two books, they were both preparations and gifts for Rawls to attend Stephen Mossos’ banquet. In the face of a “psychiatrist”, it is still necessary to have a proper understanding of psychology, not to mention that the “Crazy Asylum” is still from an “audience”.
Of course that wasn’t enough. Rawls took out a dusty purse from his suit pocket, loosened the bungee, three revolvers filled with bullets appeared on the stack of files, and a golden cane leaned against it. On the coffee table, the dazzling light reflected in the noon sun.
After checking the three revolvers, Rawls stood up, stretched again, and put the purse into his pocket. The three revolvers and the “Stand of Power” had disappeared.
…
In the outskirts of Tingen in the evening, the wind was already cold. The orange-red sunlight passed through the gap between the distant peaks and hit the courtyard of a country house. The unknown red flowers that had not yet withered were extremely conspicuous under the emerald green lawn. The Hoy River, which flows slowly in the distance, makes a small bend here, wraps around the villa and flows to the university town.
Rawls got off the carriage that had specially picked him up, took advantage of the gap between sorting out his suit and tie, and glanced around, smiled at the slightly dull coachman and said:
“Mr. Mossos is indeed a landscape painter. The scenery here is really good.”
The dull coachman twitched the corners of his mouth, nodded silently, and got into the carriage and entered through the side door.
Shaking his head slightly, Rawls’ face gradually became indifferent. After seeing the handsome young man Daniel approaching, he put on a smile again, and after hugging the young man with blue eyes showing cowardice, he led him across the courtyard. Go to the villa.
“Daniel, who else is invited today? Are they all painters?”
Daniel, who was walking in front, froze, turned his head stiffly, and a smile appeared on his handsome face:
“Mr. Adrian, you are the only one invited tonight.”
“Isn’t it?” Rawls also stopped, as if he didn’t notice Daniel’s weird expression, “I remember that day, didn’t you say that the guests who were also invited to the exhibition would also come?”
“Uh…those, those are all painters, they had already attended the luncheon at noon, Mr. Mossos said that only you saw the meaning of his words, so he wanted to have dinner with you~www.mtlnovel.com ~Daniel stammered at first, then got smoother.
Rawls looked away from Daniel and looked at the painter Stephen Mossos who was waiting for him at the door. He wore gold-rimmed glasses, and a faint smile hung on his pale and thin face. on his chin. He took a few steps forward to meet Rawls, the afterglow disappeared, his face blurred.
After hugging Rawls, Stephen flexed his index knuckles and raised his glasses, smiling brightly and vaguely:
“Rolls, you are welcome!”
“I have always heard that Tingen’s suburban scenery has always been good, but unfortunately I have been busy discussing the details of cooperation with lawyer Merino, and I have no time to look at it. I just watched it for a while on the way here today, and I know that the rumor is true. As a master of landscape painting , Stephen, the place you picked is really good.”
Rawls turned slightly, taking a panoramic view of the courtyard, without hesitating words of appreciation.
Stephen raised his eyebrows, nodded and said:
“The scenery here is really good, but it’s already night, and the scenery during the day is even better. If you want, you can stay today and enjoy it carefully tomorrow.”
“I’m afraid I don’t have time. The cooperation agreement between Adrian and Lincoln College has almost been negotiated, and it may be signed tomorrow.” Rawls shook his head slightly and handed Stephen the two books in his hand, “I Knowing that you are interested in psychology, here are two newly published psychology books, I hope you enjoy them.”
Stephen took the two books, and his eyes stayed on the “Insane Asylum” for a few seconds, and said with a smile:
“I’ll take a closer look, let’s go, dinner is ready, I hope you like it.”
