Chapter 153: Marić's commission
What a situation!
In front of me, I issued a commission to find me, isn't this riding a donkey to find a donkey...... Ahh
Louise looked attentively at the male member who issued the commission, medium build, his appearance was completely obscured by the mask, and there was an obvious cold feeling in the tone of his voice just now, I wonder if it was disguised?
Soon, the portrait was passed from the waiter to Louise, who glanced down at it, as if she had seen it somewhere......
Nonsense, the person in this portrait is myself, of course familiar...... Louise complained to herself, and then she casually handed the portrait back to the waiter, allowing it to be passed on to the next party member.
"If I find a clue, how can I get my bounty?" She asked.
Louise thought that she could not continue to be passive, because a ridiculous thought suddenly arose in her mind: if this continued, one day, the whole of Bakeland's extraordinary beings would know about this commission, and by that time she would not even be able to get out...... Therefore, she decided to take the initiative and reverse investigate who was looking for her in order to prevent future troubles.
The man who issued the commission was still in a cold tone, and he replied in a low voice:
"I'll post the same commission at the 'Brave Bar', and if there are clues, you can find the bar owner, Caspars, to claim the bounty."
Brave Bar ...... Louise pondered the familiar name in her mind, and at a loss of thought, fell silent again.
Naturally, the other members involved could not provide valid clues, but it is impossible to tell how many of them have written down Louise's appearance and are preparing to search for it in the shadows...... However, a hundred pounds of bounty must not be enough to attract too many attention, and there are not too many extraordinary people who are willing to act on it, and it should not affect Louise's daily life.
After that, the party came to an end without any other incidents, and all members left in an orderly manner under the arrangement of Mr. "Eyes of Wisdom".
Louise walked out of the party house and appeared in the dimly lit alley outside, looking up at the sky, where the growing fog was trying to block out the glow of the Crimson Moon, but to no avail.
She glanced back at the "Brave Bar" not far away, and then turned to leave.
…………
The "Brave Bar" on the weekend is full of people and the hustle and bustle is still there.
Caspars, the bar's owner, is in the second billiard room, playing snooker with one of his men, one of his few healthy hobbies.
Suddenly, there was a "creaking" sound from the wooden door of the billiard room, which turned out to be pushed open from the outside.
"You go out first." Caspars commanded his men.
The young man put down the billiard cue and walked out of the billiard room without saying a word, subconsciously glancing at the visitor with his peripheral eyes, medium height, short hair, cold like an ice lump, and when he passed by, he couldn't help but shiver.
When there were only two people left in the room, there was a group of gang leaders under his control, and Caspass, who usually showed his fierce and indifferent all day long, tried to pull out a smile, and the scars on his face looked a little hideous, and he greeted in a warm tone:
"Mr. Marich, when did you come back?"
The cold man in front of him is none other than the defector of the "Rose School", a member of the "Temperance School", and the "living corpse" of Sequence 6, Marić.
His face was pale, and there was a thick malice hidden in his eyes, and he stepped to the table, and replied simply:
2k“ 2k
"Just came back."
Caspars subconsciously looked around, and found that there was no movement in the small room, I don't know if it was a psychological effect, he felt the temperature in the room drop a lot, and asked cautiously:
"Miss Sharon is back with you, too?"
Marić gave a faint "um" in response, and without any further greetings, he pulled out a piece of parchment from his bosom without delay, and said in a cold tone as if he had issued an order:
"Find the woman in the portrait, her name is Louise."
Caspars took the portrait, and after examining it carefully for two seconds, he furrowed his brow, as if thinking of something, and said in an uncertain tone:
"I think I've seen this woman......"
"When?" A cold female voice suddenly rang out in the room.
Caspars didn't seem to be frightened, but he turned his head when he heard the words, and sure enough, in the mirror behind him, he saw a woman wearing a black court dress.
This woman has pale blond hair, blue eyes, and a very delicate appearance, but her face is unusually pale, and she wears a small black soft hat, without any superfluous movements or even expressions, and looks like a doll...... It is none other than Marić's companion, the "Resentful Spirit" of Sequence Five, Sharon.
"Miss Sharon."
Caspars bowed slightly, said hello, and unsurprisingly received no response, but he was used to it, and continued to try to recall it in his mind, and finally replied:
"Last week, I was approached by a woman who looked five or six points like the one on this portrait with the intention of joining me to an extraordinary gathering held by Mr. 'Wisdom Eye.'"
"You promised her?" Marić asked, with a hint of disappointment in his cold tone.
"Yes," replied Caspars, "because the woman did not hide her identity as an extraordinary. ”
In this way, at the party just now, when she issued the commission, Louise was probably among the participating members, could it be the woman who asked how to get the bounty...... Marić felt a pang of remorse as he looked at Sharon, who was floating in mid-air, who shook his head imperceptibly before disappearing.
"Post the commission." Marić commanded.
He clearly remembered the warning of the three of Gerari, as long as the search commission was issued, Louise would take the initiative to find him, and there was no more efficient way to track the other party.
…………
Louise returned home to find that Miss "The Fortune Teller" seemed to have been waiting for a long time.
"Claudia politely declined her request to meet with you, and it seems that she is a complete stranger to you." Katrin said.
Louise was silent for two seconds, and there was not much surprise in her heart, because she no longer felt that the Abrahamic family was looking for her, so she only replied lightly:
"I see."
Catelyn breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this, and then asked, "Now that this clue has been broken, where do we start investigating next?" ”
"No need." Louise denied, and continued to instruct without stopping: "Don't run out tomorrow, there are more important things to do." ”
"The drama is coming to an end."
