At night, gas street lamps illuminate the wet ground, and occasionally a horse-drawn carriage passes by, splashing a little droplet.

Beckland is located in the middle of the kingdom, only a few dozen kilometers away from the Sunia Sea, with light rain all year round, the average maximum temperature in July is only 28 degrees Celsius, and the lowest temperature in winter is about 2 degrees Celsius.

Crane stood in the room with the unlit fireplace, standing behind the bay belly window, looking at the peaceful scene outside, and felt that his body, mind, and spirit were extremely relaxed.

As long as he gathers the materials and concocts the potion, he will be able to advance to Sequence 6 and become a "Faceling" in no time.

"The 'magician' potion has been completely digested...... 'Apostle of Desire' has been terminated by my own hands, and I have not been able to escape...... 'Aurora Society''s search for the 'Fool' believers is still in a dead end...... Except for the matter that Mr. Azik is being pursued by which force and the problem related to the potion material, I don't have any trouble for the time being......" Crane leaned forward and sighed, watching it condense a layer of white mist on the window.

The reason why he wants to take the risk of intercepting the "Apostle of Desire" is that he is worried that the other party will have other arrangements, so as to successfully escape the tracking of the official extraordinary, and when the time comes, he may be remembered for providing the key advice and be retaliated against afterwards - as a "cold-blooded person", the demon is unlikely to risk avenging his companions, but this does not mean that they will not choose to vent their anger because they almost died.

"This operation is really necessary, maybe the people of the 'Twilight Hermit Society' will be picked up somewhere, and when the 'Apostle of Desire' escapes, I may just follow Sequence 5 to guard against it, thinking that there will not be much danger if I am promoted to the 'Faceling', however, the 'Apostle of Desire' is very likely to be promoted to a high sequence with the help of the information provided by the 'Abyss' card and the help of the 'Twilight Hermit Society'! This kind of development is scary just thinking about it...... Righteousness is indispensable......" Klein examined the events of this afternoon, drawing lessons from them.

After admiring the night view for a while, he walked back to the couch and sat down, thinking about the next arrangement:

"With the bounty from the 'Mechanical Heart', the brain mutated pituitary gland and blood of the Thousand Faces Hunter can be bought, and the money needed for the hair of the Deep Sea Naga is also enough, this material should be relatively easy to collect at sea, and you can ask Mr. 'Hanged Man' to help, the only problem is the characteristics of the human skin shadow......

"And even if there are clues, the gold pound is not enough......"

Thinking of this, Klein couldn't help but laugh at himself silently:

"I'm not a person who loves money in nature, it's just a normal preference, when I was in Tingen, I always encouraged Melissa to spend, and I always asked her and Benson to hire a maid, and I felt that no matter what, I would try not to treat myself badly, and every time I did a secret action, it was also safety first, and I was careful and would not be affected by wealth.

"But for revenge, you have to upgrade the sequence, and you have to buy expensive extraordinary materials for the promotion sequence, which can only be accumulated for penny and susle, and you can save ...... if you can"

He suddenly shrunk his shoulders, feeling that the coldness of the living room made the "magician", who was not known for his physical fitness, tremble a little.

So, he decided to take a shower, get under the covers, and read a book in bed.

It's time to go to bed in three or four hours, so there's no need to light the fireplace...... Crane sighed, stood up, and walked to the second floor.

............

Steam Chapel Underground Area.

Iconse flipped through all the recorded confessions, picked up his coffee, and took a sip.

After a few seconds of calm, he pulled out the ancient silver mirror called Arrodus.

Carlson glanced at it and asked with some curiosity:

"Deacon, if you ask Venerable Arodes about an unsolved mathematical problem or a classical paradox, will it give the correct answer?"

Most of the time, it will reject outright, and if it thinks you have malicious intent, it may even give you a lightning bolt outright, or put you under a curse that you absolutely don't want to face. "It's a living seal, it's extremely intelligent, it's not a rigid rule-abiding differential machine, and it's best not to use it with the idea of exploiting loopholes." ”

Magnus looked at the players around him and kindly proposed:

"Deacon, let me ask for you, I don't have anything to hide. ”

He straightened his back and assumed a posture of calm and honesty.

Iconse smiled bitterly:

"There's no need, everyone who should know knows, I'm no longer afraid of similar questions, and besides, Venerable Arodus occasionally asks quite esoteric questions, with your physical condition, the subsequent punishment is not so easy to bear. ”

After speaking, he first clenched his fist, and then stretched out his five fingers and stroked the surface of the silver mirror three times.

In the subtle mist, Iconse spoke in a low voice:

"Dear Arodes, my question is, who is the one who instructed the 'Apostle of Desire' to assassinate Duke Negan, or which force?"

The silver mirror did not change for a short time, and it took a while for the water to float, outlining an oil painting-like scene:

It was the plain where the sun was about to set, and the vast fields were sprinkled with pale golden afterglow.

"What does this mean?" Carlson and other members of the "Mechanical Heart" look at me, I look at you, completely incomprehensible, even if among them there are extraordinary people who have been promoted by "Voyeurs", and they are no strangers to interpreting revelations.

"Twilight, a symbol of the end of life, a sect that believes in death, or a madman who believes in the end of the world?" said a "voyeur."

Carlson echoed and nodded:

"I think it's the latter. ”

Iconse ignored their discussion, as the question of Arodus had already surfaced:

"What's your favorite color panties?"

Iconse's face suddenly flushed, and he felt as if smoke was rising above his head.

He spat out one word with great difficulty:

"Red. ”

The room suddenly became unusually quiet, and Carlson and the others looked into the corner as if nothing had happened.

Iconse sat down in prostration, scratching at her shaggy hair, ready to ask a second question.

Carlson couldn't bear to say:

"Deacon, let me give it a try. ”

“...... Try not to get into the punishment link. Iconser finally nodded in agreement.

Magnus confidently mimicked the deacon's movements, stroking the surface of the silver mirror three times before the other members gathered around again.

"Dear Arodes, my question is, who are the collaborators of the 'Apostle of Desire'?"

The water floats, the image changes, and the surface of the silver mirror first shows the back of a woman, and her figure is extremely outstanding.

Then, it was a vague person who could only barely judge that he was a man from the way he dressed.

"Sure enough, there is another collaborator, this should be the person who betrayed Duke Negan's information! Unfortunately, the other party has a certain amount of ...... to deal with," Carlson said as he looked around.

He doesn't think he has any secret secrets, and he doesn't need to care about follow-up questions.

This time, the choice given by Arodus was to question, task, or punishment.

Carlson did not hesitate to say:

"Question!"

The surface of the silver mirror quickly outlined blood-drenched words:

"Do you solve it every day with your hands?"

Carlson's lips twitched, and his ears quickly became hot.

Although this is something he thinks is normal, giving an answer in front of so many teammates and bosses still makes him feel the urge to bury his face in the ground.

"Yes......" he replied very quietly.

............

Bottom of the Church of St. Samuel.

Wearing blue eyeshadow, Daly threw a stack of papers in front of Sost, the "Requiem":

"All the case information you want involving tarot cards. ”

"Less than I thought. Sost said in a little surprise.

Dai Li snorted:

"It's just the index. ”

Seeing this, Leonard touched his lower lip with his red-gloved right palm and said:

"Captain Sost, why don't we investigate the people who came into contact with Jason Beria and compare them with the previous two cases? ”

"Duke Negan is a devout disciple of the Lord of the Storm, representing the interests of the Storm Church in the political arena, the substitutes will definitely be crazy to find the real culprit, we don't need to get involved, it will be easy to contradict them, we look into other cases involving tarot cards, maybe we will find new clues, of course, we will inevitably run around because of this, but this is the duty of the Red Glove. Sost explained with a smile.

Leonard nodded:

"I see. ”

And in his mind, the slightly old voice chuckled:

"The night watchman actually missed it like this, that person has the smell of 'Black Emperor', the taste of the real 'Black Emperor'!"

............

Inside the Cathedral of the Holy Winds.

Ace Snake, the "Singer of the Gods" wearing a black soft hat, swept his silver eyes and said to the selected elite punishers:

"Although I am about to leave Beckland, this is the decision of the Council of Cardinals.

"Your next mission is to investigate the assassination of Duke Negan.

"After the declaration, you have the right to use the Level 1 seal, and you must find out who is targeting us!"

Standing at the forefront, a middle-aged man wearing an improved captain's hat immediately led the crowd, clenched his fists with his hands, and tapped his chest and said:

"Yes, Your Excellency!"

He is lean and has no characteristic appearance, but he has an anchor-shaped blue and black tattoo on his neck.

............

Queens, inside the luxurious villa of the Earl Hall's family.

Audrey looked at Susie who opened the door and came in, and said in a low voice:

"Dad, what are they discussing?"

When she found that Earl Hall had returned late and that his expression was unusually solemn, she immediately sent Susie, the golden retriever, to sit in and listen.

"Duke Negan was assassinated. Susie closed the door.

"Huh?" Audrey froze, suspecting she had misheard.

Although she had already experienced the assassination of Duke Negan, she never imagined that this powerful nobleman would actually die because of it.

"Really. Susie replied in the affirmative.

Audrey was a little dazed and felt that it was not real enough.

Such a great nobleman, such a flesh-and-blood duke who can talk and laugh, and gave himself a manor, died like this?

Suddenly, she experienced the cruelty and coldness of the adult world.

"Who did that?" asked Audrey subconsciously.

"A Sequence 5 demon. Susie replied quickly, "But he has been killed, by the thief 'Black Emperor'." ”

"Huh?" Audrey was stunned again.

How can he be a thief "Black Emperor", how can he be a relative of Mr. "Fool"?

He helped me last time with the assassination of Duke Negan!

It's a complete contradiction!

Audrey immediately told Susie to attend again, and she locked the door of her room, sat on the edge of the bed, and prayed to Mr. "Fool".

After reciting the honorific name and describing the assassination of Duke Negan, she asked, with great trust:

"Are your dependents there?"

After a while, she saw the endless gray mist, and heard the voice of the "fool":

"Yes.

"He's looking for the organization that directs the 'Apostles of Desire.' ”

Sure enough, it wasn't arranged by Mr. "Fool"! The last time he asked his dependents to block Ziringus, it was also for the sake of the organization behind the scenes? Audrey relaxed and asked curiously:

"What kind of organization is that? It's getting your attention. ”

A second later, she heard Mr. "Fool" reply in his usual silence:

"The Dusk Hermit Society. ”
