Abner left Daphne alone with no other thoughts, but simply learned about the political situation in Intis from her.

After knowing that Trier was basically stable, knowing that the "Church of the Eternal Sun" and the "Church of Steam", as well as the intention of the major families to restore the "archon" system in the early stage of Russell, and knowing that the Sauron family was likely to return to the power of the Intis state, he let Daphne back.

After all, this "excessive regime" is actually difficult to last long, and it will inevitably pay for the future "defeat".

As for Intis being able to win? Hehe, although the royal family of Rune is desperate to die, the goddess is much more terrifying than the original because of the existence of "me"...... How can this be lost?

Shaking his head, Abner also left his "strange realm" and returned to his villa at 28 Kingster Street.

Since Hugh was still preparing for the "promotion ceremony" in the "Ghost Empire", and Firth was busy playing the role of the last "astrologer", the villa was a little deserted.

At this time, Abner happened to receive a message from Miss "Lazy" Cross Fia.

"Yes...... A month ago, I said yes to the invitation of 'gluttony' to go to Indoport......" Abner patted his head and said suddenly.

In fact, he didn't really forget, and it was impossible to forget it with a separate "discerning eye" to make a "memo", but because the deadline was still a day or two away, he didn't "remind" him.

"According to Crane, it seems that Leonard has also chased Indor Harbor because of the mission, and the 'Transformation Wand-Earth' that I built has not yet been given to him......

"Well, since he can't take the time to arrange the ceremony of receiving the 'sacrifice', then I might as well find an opportunity to give it to him myself."

As his thoughts turned, Abner did not immediately go to Indo, because before that, there was one more thing that needed to be done—that is, to take the "hypnotized" Mrs. Felina to Livishid, the "City of Miracles", for "academic" research......

……

Monday afternoon.

22 Pesfell Street, Headquarters of the Academy Award Charitable Foundation.

- Because of the original book, Abner deliberately chose this place when choosing the site.

Audrey, who had been working at the "Charity Foundation" for several days, followed behind a middle-aged professional woman transformed into Margaret, the "Red Saint", through the door, inside, and up to the second floor, back to the offices of the two ladies.

Since they went to the factory area and the bridge area in the morning, Audrey, as a noble lady, only wore a relatively simple skirt, with a white background and dark green, the cuffs and collar were mainly ruffles, and only the chest had layers of lace interlaced into bow-tie flowers.

She didn't even wear jewelry, she wore a belt that couldn't be seen as good or bad, only her left arm, and her clothes were slightly bulging when the wind blew against her skin.

But this kind of outfit is still too ostentatious in the eyes of Margaret, who used to really live at the bottom, so they didn't enter the East End today.

- Margaret was born in the era when Russell had just become the "child of steam", and the living conditions in the slums at the beginning of the Industrial Revolution were only worse than those in the east side of Rune today!

"Miss Audrey, you have visited several public schools, do you have any thoughts?" Margaret asked with a smile.

Because she was "brainwashed" by Abner, she devoted herself to her work with enthusiasm after becoming the manager of the "Charity Foundation", so as to atone for what she had done.

Audrey looked at the lady in front of her, who was a little old, but still charming, and replied after thinking about it:

"Many of the children in those schools are really pitiful, and in order to save money, they bring their own black bread for lunch with a glass of water.

"But I guess it's probably not the most real case...... I'm afraid they won't let us see the worst.

"But I can imagine that must have been terrible."

As she spoke, a look of pity gradually appeared in Audrey's turquoise eyes.

Gelman Sparrow of the "World" once told a similar story at a tarot meeting, and her friends Hugh and Furth also briefly mentioned the real situation at the bottom of Beckland, but what they have not seen with their own eyes can only rely on imagination.

"That's pretty good...... But the reality is only worse than you think...... After all, our fund has limited financial resources, and we have to spend every amount of money in earnest. Margaret sighed silently, as if thinking of her original situation, and said, "I took you to see the situation at the bottom, not to make you feel the dark side of this world, but to make you know some things in your heart, and not to be deceived by the people below." ”

Audrey nodded a little hard but slightly, although she is already a "hypnotist", it is very difficult for ordinary people to hide from her, but there are indeed exceptions, some people just regard the "bad" things they do as the "right" cause, and even he believes it...... When encountering this, she may be deceived.

And the reason why she has such a deep understanding is because of the "birthday gift" that Susie gave her before!

It was an "object" or amulet made of the materials on her body after Susie learned the magic of "ritual", which could make the wearer's sense of smell reach Susie's own level in a short time.

Because when she broke through the "Dream Labyrinth Tower", Audrey expressed her envy for Susie's sensitive sense of smell several times, and the latter remembered it, so she "kindly" gave this birthday gift to meet Audrey's wish.

But unfortunately, that day happened to be the day when the "bag assistant" Yin Sirant fed the "Fallen Box" with "canned wolf fish", but when Audrey tried it driven by curiosity, she was directly tricked, and she still has a loss of appetite.

After a few more discussions, Margaret stopped chatting and began to work in earnest, while Audrey returned to her lounge with a question in mind:

"What would it be like to be worse......"

……

At the same time, Crane had just taken a comfortable bath to ease his tense spirits, then put on his pajamas, returned to his bedroom on the second floor, and took out a pen and paper before the tarot meeting began, and drew a complex symbol that blended "peeping" and "stealth".

Immediately afterwards, on the surface of the full-length mirror placed in the room, the water waves suddenly swung in circles, and the silver light composed of Lu Enwen:

"The Most High Great Master, your faithful, insignificant, humble servant Arodes has come at your call!

"Do you have something to ask me?"

Crane nodded and said:

"Yes."

Without waiting for Arodes to say that he could ask questions, he spoke directly:

"Do you know who that officer I met earlier at Councillor Mahert's house is?

"If you're not sure who I'm referring to, I can draw it for you."

Councillor Mahert held another ball at his home yesterday and introduced Kleine to "Lady Mary," an old friend of Sherlock's time...... The latter appears to be intent on selling him shares in the Kauyinm Company.

In the dark and deep mirror, the water floated, reflecting a man with a cold and hard appearance, a large beard, and dark blue eyes, who was the officer that Crane was talking about.

At the same time, on the surface of the mirror, the silver word was also introduced: "His name is Chunas Korg, he is from MI9, and he is currently the deputy chief of the Major General, and he claims to be only a 'lawyer' in Sequence 5, but he is in charge of a powerful seal." ”

MI9...... Major General's Deputy Chief of Staff...... It seems that he is the "spokesperson" of the royal family's faction in the spy agency......

And the surname "Korg" is somewhat familiar...... By the way, it's the last name of the best friend with Mr. Azik's son......

I remember that Mr. "Tower" did an investigation, and the "Korg", who was Mr. Azik's son's best friend, had long since died, and it was actually someone else from the royal family who pretended to kill him.

Crane bowed his head slightly, remembering the information given by the "Magic Mirror", he looked at his watch, and found that it was almost three o'clock, so he didn't have time to think about it, and asked:

"What else do you want to say?"

If someone else asked such a question, Crane felt that he would definitely be thundered by Arodes, or used other methods to tease him maliciously, but he thought that the supreme lord above the spirit world was still qualified to ask such a question, and it could be regarded as an opportunity to test Arodes's bottom line.

On the surface of the "full-length mirror", the silver light distorted and changed into one new word after another without a hint of sluggishness:

"Great master, Zarathu seems to have come to his senses, and has come to Beckland, and has had contact with the people of the royal house of Rune.

"Because she came only as a projection, I was able to see.

"You must have known this information for a long time, right?"

Zarathu? Is she really out of trouble? Crane raised his eyebrows and said:

"I see.

"Alright, that's the end of this time, and if you have any more problems later, I'll summon you."

"Yes, master, your humble and loyal servant Arodes is always on standby! Goodbye~" On the surface of the mirror, a stick figure waving a handkerchief appeared.

Emojis seem to be a lot richer, this product is getting more and more "advanced", and I don't know who to learn from...... Crane watched in silence until everything was back to normal.

……

At three o'clock, above the gray mist, inside the ancient and majestic palace, a stream of crimson light surged up, solidifying into the figure of the mold lake.

After meeting up with the two young ladies "Lazy" and "Greedy" in the hot spring manor of Indo Harbor, Abner, who was in a good mood, looked at the "Just" Audrey on the opposite side and stood up as usual, lifted the hem of her skirt, and led everyone to salute:

"Good afternoon, Mr. 'Fool'~"
