Beckland.

In the previous two days, Klein and Mike, under the guidance of Kohler Sr., "visited" many places in the East End.

They had seen five or six people crammed into a room, and this was not the worst case, an average bedroom could sleep ten people, and the precise division of ownership such as floor bunks, daytime access, and nighttime access was the norm.

Seeing the homeless man who was driven away in the middle of the night and wandered the streets like a living corpse,

I saw the girls who stood numbly on the side of the street or in the bar, and the drinkers who indulged in alcoholism and violence, and didn't want to think about the future at all.

I saw the dust in the lead white factory and the female workers who had no protection......

In the past two days, only the washing lady named Liv, who insisted that her daughters go to the church's evening school, was the only bright spot......

But this bright color only belongs to the soul who does not accept fate...... Its presence only makes the poor environment in the East End even worse!

Witnessing all this, as a reporter with a sense of justice, although Mike is not young, his style is relatively stingy, and he sometimes does anything for the purpose of interviewing...... But he still retained his original intention, so he became angry.

At first, he was only commissioned by a big man, but after a few days of visiting, he now really wants to do something for the East District and the real people living here.

And the journalist, the most powerful weapon is the pen in his hand! Not only did he have to truthfully feedback the situation here to the big man, but he also had to write an editorial so that more people could understand the real environment of the East End!

"It's like a big bloody sacrifice ceremony, except that the target is the glittering money symbol...... If cults such as the Aurora Society and the Rose School can take advantage of something like this, as Lanerus did in Tingen, it will be a big problem......"

Crane was also deeply shocked by this thought, although he had known and contacted the lives of those poor people when he was a night watchman, but this all-round, three-dimensional observation completely presented an abyss in front of his eyes......

"Go back, I'm pretty much done with my investigative interviews." After a long silence with his fists clenched, Mike sighed.

Then they were led by old Kohler and walked to the area of the bridge, silent all the way, no one spoke.

"I hope the Earl of East Chester will find a practical way to improve the living conditions of the poor in the East End after getting my report......" Mike sighed as he was about to part, but his voice became lower and lower.

"The Earl of East Chester?" Klein felt as if he had heard the name somewhere, and in retrospect, he remembered that the landlord, Mrs. Starleen Summer, had said that the chief secretary of the Air Pollution Investigation Committee seemed to be the eldest son of the Earl of East Chester.

And when he thought of Mrs. Starling, he suddenly remembered that the other party seemed to have invited him to attend the blind date at her house tonight when he was at the Cragg Club...... No, it's a dinner party?

"Yes, that's a real nobleman...... And this survey interview of mine was commissioned by him. After Mike explained a little, he sighed again, "It's a pity that even such a big man may not be able to bring about a big change......

"At least he's willing to find out what's really going on at the bottom, isn't he? This shows that he really has a heart for change. Klein comforted the other party.

"I hope so...... However, even if the upper echelons still do nothing, I will write everything I have seen and heard in the past two days into the report, so that more knowledgeable and caring gentlemen can pay attention to this issue. Mike said, clenching his fists.

Then I suggest that you send the article directly to the diocesan bishops of the major churches...... Klein muttered a word, and then said goodbye to the preoccupied Mike reporter.

After he left, Klein developed the elder Kohler into his own informant in the East Side with the mentality of a "fivepence party with its own dry food", and asked him to keep a close eye on the activities of some cults here.

After returning all the way to his home on Minsk Street, the tired Klein was just about to sleep, but at this moment, the illusory pleading voice of Miss "Judgment" sounded in his ears.

"Miss 'Judgment' got 2,200 pounds? I didn't even ask Mr. 'Tower' to borrow ...... It seems that I am the only 'fool' in the Tarot Society who is the poorest......"

Although Klein was a little surprised, he still took four steps backwards, entered the ancient temple above the gray mist, and accepted the "sacrifice" of Miss "Judgment".

"Well, after going to the landlady's house for dinner in the evening, I have to wait at home for Miss Sharon to arrive and exchange materials with her that Miss 'Trial' needs......

"There's going to be a tarot meeting tomorrow, and the night after that, I'll have to go to the sixth floor of the 'Dream Labyrinth Tower' with Miss Sharon......

"I feel like I'm getting really busy all of a sudden!"

Just as Klein sighed, the crimson star that symbolized Mr. "Tower" rapidly expanded and contracted, and he subconsciously spread his spirituality, only to hear a "request" for him to "give" Misor's corpse.

"Stop the mortuary for a day, and don't say pay the corpse management fee......" Crane muttered like this, but he still opened the "Door to Summoning" and threw the remaining bag into it.

The loss of the "Fallen Morning Star" has always made him a little unreasonable, so he is always quite "tolerant" of the "Tower's" requests.

"After all, I'm a 'fool' of 'equivalent exchange'!"

After laughing at himself, Klein returned to the bedroom as if he had fallen, and slept until it was dark, and when evening came, he was woken up by the sound of the landlady's maid ringing the doorbell.

……

Byam, "Aromatic Manor", master bedroom.

After receiving the body bag from the Fool, Abner, who has transformed into "Doctor Strange", first arranges the rituals required to perform the "teleportation technique", and then exchanges a slightly transparent dark charm from the "Dream Labyrinth Tower".

Then, he recited a lengthy incantation, and with the charm in his hand, he "borrowed" a special power from the spirit world and transmitted it to the ritual.

Then the "teleportation charm" that had been exchanged suddenly disappeared, turning into a round "door" with sparks flashing at the edges.

Seeing this, Abner did not dare to delay time, grabbed the bag containing the "Clever Talker" Misool King, and stepped into the door.

Unlike the feeling when he was "shuttled" by Mr. Azic, the "travel" through the "Edwards-Bryan Teleportation Technique" was "positioned" by a clear altar, so after seeing countless transparent shadows that were difficult to describe the form, and discovering the clear light of infinite knowledge hidden at the top, he involuntarily walked out of another "door" made of sparks.

Then, Abner saw Edwina, who had her hair down, standing not far away with a pocket watch.

The room he was in was filled with all sorts of strange objects, including huge keys, asymmetrical coins that resembled the "gold coin of Solomon" he had given Hugh, and books bound to parchment......

This is the collection room of the "Lieutenant General of the Iceberg"? It seems that in her heart, the teleportation altar is also one of the collections...... Abner looked at it for a moment, and made a judgment in his heart.

"When did you leave?" Adevina asked, like a serious scientist.

"Twenty-thirty sharp." Abner replied in the affirmative. This was originally one of the items of this "teleportation" experiment, and he naturally did not forget to record the time.

"It was 2:30 and 10 seconds when you came out of the door...... Ten seconds? As far as I know, the average 'traveler' crossed such a distance at about this time...... It seems that the technique we developed was successful,"

Edwina's eyes were shining as she looked at the disappearing 'door', and her expression was much more vivid.

She had tried to "imitate" the "traveler" of the "traveler", but unfortunately it was unsuccessful, and now this secret technique, although troublesome and expensive, is a "sign" of her conquest of this field, and she has a sense of accomplishment.

In contrast, although Abner was also happy with the success of this technique, it was not as pure as Adewina, so after a little excitement, he talked about "business" and handed the bag to the other party:

"We can get twenty-eight cents of the bounty in exchange."

Adevina put it aside without paying much attention and nodded, "Yes." ”

Then, after inviting Abner to see her many collections, she looked at him as if she remembered something:

"Mary sent a messenger to me a day ago to bring me news that the Lions of Finkx had been spotted in the southern part of the Paz Valley on the southern continent, in the area of Daniel's Valley, near the Star Plateau."

Abner's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he thought about the map of the Southern Continent he had seen in his mind, and asked, "Is there a more specific location?" ”

After all, Daniel Valley is not small......

According to Maria, the people who saw the Phinx were dead, and it was through the remnants of the spirits that they knew what had happened to them...... The place where those people died was on the western side of Lake Dal in the valley. Adevina relayed the letter that Maria had "sent" to Abner.

After finishing speaking, she paused and added, "I happened to be going to the Southern Continent recently...... This is a good time to test the teleportation distance and corresponding time of the 'Edwards-Bryan Teleportation'. ”

You mean, let me keep teleporting between Byam and the Golden Dream as you sail? Thanks to my "teleportation charm", it is only more expensive to "liver......

Abner complained in his heart, but on the surface he agreed very simply: "Good! ”

At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door outside the collection room, and then Daniz's voice was heard:

"Captain, a ghost ship has appeared in the nearby waters."

……

On Monday, in Silver City, Darek at the base of the round tower suddenly saw a gray mist in front of his eyes, and the deep voice of the "fool" sounded in his ears:

"Prepare for the party."

Just as the boundless crimson light gushing out of the void overwhelmed Darik's astral spirit, the former exploration team leader next to him suddenly knocked on the wall of the metal cubicle......

But there was no third knock for a chat as usual!
