Chapter 131: Transactions (Part 2)
Mr. A, it feels more like a code name for a criminal than a name for a mysterious powerhouse...... There is no comparison with the "fool" at all...... No, those who can be compared to Mr. Fool should be gods or big people second only to gods...... Audrey's mind turned, and she was suddenly filled with a sense of superiority.
She glanced at Mr. A calmly, and lowered her voice to Folth and Hugh Dilcha:
"Is there anything this gentleman doing?"
Viscount Glerint, who was also wearing a hooded robe next to him, was also very curious about this.
Hugh Dilcha replied with a serious face, "There have been several times when the Extraordinary of Sequence 8 and even Sequence 7 have their eyes on Mr. A, trying to deal with him, but in the end they all disappear without a trace. ”
"What a powerful extraordinary. Gleilint admired and repeated the previous introduction.
As they spoke, the four entered the house, and the gatekeeper immediately closed the door.
Adjusting to the light of the gas lamp, Audrey saw two blackboards standing in the forefront, with lines and lines of words written on them.
At this time, Furth, who was holding a cigarette but did not light it, whispered:
That's the individual needs of the party members, and you can understand that many people don't want others to know what they have, so they don't want to be targeted by the greedy, so they anonymously write on the blackboard what they want or what they want to sell, as well as the approximate price and item requirements. ”
Audrey bowed her head slightly, ignoring the party members, and directly skimmed through a few entries on the blackboard on the left:
"A pair of adult manhal eyes are needed. ”
"Dust from the wraith, 165 pounds. ”
"Notes of Russell the Great, three pages, 20 pounds. ”
Seeing this, Audrey could no longer maintain the state of the audience, shocked and excited.
These prices, these prices, too, too cheap!, she thought excitedly and happily.
As she walked, she shifted her gaze and saw more entries:
"Baby's cry, flowers, 200 pounds. ”
"Mummy powder, 10 grams, 5 pounds. ”
"Fish-man slime, 30 ml, 29 pounds. ”
"Sequence 8 'Sheriff' potion recipe, 450 pounds. ”
......
Too, too cheap! None of the extraordinary materials cost more than 300 pounds! Audrey's eyes lit up as she followed her companion to find a place to sit down.
At this moment, Hugh Dilcha leaned into her ear and asked in a low voice:
"What do you want?"
Audrey's snort intensified, and the famous declaration of Russell the Great flashed in her mind:
"I want it all!"
She had two older brothers, so it was not her turn to inherit the title and main property, but as a beloved girl by her parents and brothers, she had £300,000 worth of property, fields, pastures, mines, jewellery, stocks, shares and bonds in her name.
This is her share of the family property, but until her father, Earl Hall, passed away, or she married, she only owned it in name only, and received a corresponding annuity every year.
But even so, she has an income of 15,000 to 25,000 pounds a year, and she can be ranked among the nobles of the entire Rune Kingdom.
Of course, as a nobleman, many necessary expenses are indispensable, especially since she has already received annuity income and can no longer find her parents for everything.
She restrained herself and replied reservedly:
"For the time being, I only fancy the notes of Russell the Great, I am an admirer of him, and I think that the special runes or words he created have mysterious powers, but we have not found a way to put them together correctly. ”
Audrey, you're becoming more and more hypocritical...... She silently added in her heart.
As soon as she finished speaking, a young man in a white shirt and black vest sitting on a nearby chair excitedly echoed:
"Yes! That's it! I've finally met someone who shares my views!"
"I'm the owner of those three pages of notes, and I can sell them to you right now!"
...... Audrey was at first dazed, then replied with a smile: "Then allow me to express my gratitude." ”
She took out two 10 pounds in cash and handed them to the other party, and harvested three pages of the diary of Russell the Great, which, of course, no one here knew was a diary, only called a note in general.
Getting her hands on it and flipping through it, Audrey confirmed that the text was similar to the ones she had obtained before.
Putting away the diary, she whispered to Hugh and Forth, "If the notes are fake, who can I turn to?" Mr. A?"
"Yes, Mr. A will not allow fraud in the party he organized, well, I can also help you arbitrate privately. Hugh Dilcha replied eagerly.
"I see. Audrey enters the "spectator" state and begins to examine the Extraordinary and the Extraordinary Reserve present.
Because of the excitement of the young man just now, many people noticed this, looking at Audrey and Gleilint more or less visibly, but neither of them lacked the gaze to penetrate the hood.
Sofas, chairs, and coffee tables are scattered together towards the blackboard...... The material is very average, indicating that the convener, Mr. A, is not a nobleman and is very casual in this regard...... Well, with the confidence he showed, he wouldn't deliberately do something like that...... Audrey rolled her eyes and observed calmly.
Mr. A looked at all the ladies and ladies present, and his eyes often rested on the good-looking ones...... He's...... Why does he always look at me? Can he see through the hood?
Extrapolating this, Audrey's heart was shocked, as disgusting as eating a fly.
But soon, she was relieved because she found that Mr. A was not looking at her and the other women......
This indicates that his eyes cannot see through the fabric directly...... His eyesight was outstanding, like looking at me up close, and in this case, the hood was of little use...... Audrey quietly watched the transactions of others, grasping part of the situation of everyone present.
At this time, Mr. A's attendant came over and whispered to the four:
"You can write down your needs on a piece of paper, or you can go to the small room and write down the items you want to sell on the blackboard during the rest of the day. ”
Furth took a puff of his cigarette and looked around warily, "Have you thought about the Sequence 9 recipe you want?"
During this time, she fulfilled her promise and told Audrey and Viscount Glerint all the information she could learn about the sequence pathways.
Audrey pretended to think for a moment and said:
"'Audience', I want to be 'audience', well, but also the follow-up of 'audience', 'mind reader'. ”
She considered that she would have to be in constant contact with Firth and Hugh Dilcha in the future, and sooner or later they would find out that she was an extraordinary person and an 'audience', so she simply took this opportunity to bring things to the light and completely cover up the existence of the Tarot Society.
It's a wasted amount of money, but it's well worth it...... Audrey quietly complimented herself.
At the same time, she noticed that Hugh Dilcha looked at the blackboard from time to time, eager and frustrated.
"Hugh told me that the corresponding sequence 8 of 'arbitrator' is 'sheriff'...... She's looking at the £450 recipe? Well, you can see she's hungry for the 'sheriff' recipe......"
"She has been an 'arbiter' for more than a year, and has been unconsciously playing the role of 'arbitrator', and she should have digested the potion......"
"All the above details say, Hugh, lack of money!"
While Audrey was secretly making judgments, Viscount Glerint made her choice:
"'Pharmacist', I need the recipe for Sequence 9 'Pharmacist'!"
Feeling the gaze of Audrey, Firth and Hugh, he explained: "For me, having health and not being afraid of most diseases and injuries is the most important thing!"
"Rational choice, my dream was also a pharmacist. Furth sighed and laughed.
She has a laid-back and decadent temperament.
After deciding, Audrey and the others wrote the request on a slip of paper and handed it to the attendant, and then watched him go around and ask one by one, and collected a lot of notes.
The attendant handed the note to his companion in charge of the blackboard and told him to register it.
"Need the recipe of the potion of the 'audience' and the 'mind reader', and the price will be negotiated face-to-face......"
Each time a message is written, the waiter reads it aloud three times, and if anyone is interested, they secretly apply for a room and complete the transaction with the help of the waiter.
After waiting for a while, Audrey and Glerint were disappointed that they could not wait for someone to ask for a trade.
Just then, another waiter came up to Audrey and gave her a folded note.
"Mr. A gave it to you. The waiter lowered his voice.
Audrey unfolded the note, glanced at it, and saw that it read:
"Interested in other Sequence 9 recipes?"
Audrey curled the corners of her mouth disdainfully and wrote in the blank space of the note: "I am only interested in the 'audience'. ”
She folded the note again, returned it to the waiter, and watched as the other party handed it to Mr. A.
Mr. A opened it and glanced at it, but said nothing, still watching the members of the party in silence.
But Audrey was keenly aware that the note quietly burned, turning into ashes and falling to the ground.
After another fifteen minutes, Mr. A spoke:
"Going into the break phase, you can communicate at will. ”
At this time, the young man who sold Russell's diary approached Audrey and said excitedly: "I have deciphered some of Russell the Great's special runes and tattooed them on his body, and I have obtained a good ability. ”
"Are you interested?"
Audrey suddenly remembered that she had asked Mr. Fool if the special words in Russell the Great's diary had magical powers, and Mr. Fool's answer was that unless some god suddenly became interested.
She looked at the young man in front of her, thought for a moment, and asked tentatively, "What good abilities have you gained?"
The young man replied excitedly:
"I'm stronger and healthier!"
Audrey looked at him with pity and said, "I'm sorry, but I believe in my research more." ”
For the rest of the day, she continued to observe the meeting, but did not gain much useful information, only a rough judgment that there were members of the normal profession such as doctors and lawyers.
After another half an hour, Audrey and the others left the place and returned to Viscount Gleilint's villa, where they remained until the end of the ball.
At 10 o'clock in the evening, Audrey returned home and was about to ask the maid to prepare hot water, when she suddenly saw the big dog Susie give her a look.
It gave me a look...... Audrey's feelings suddenly became complicated.
