Chapter 229: The First Tarot Meeting
Beckland, in the dead of night, at 59 Agram Street, there were inexplicably two more figures in the corridor on the third floor, and they were Miss "Fortune Teller" and Miss Maid.
The reason is simple, Catherin, who has been promoted to "magician", has a great increase in inspiration, and in her sleep, she finds that someone has broken into the house, so she wakes up Sophia and comes to "catch the thief" together.
Miss "Fortune Teller" and Miss Maid glanced at each other, and slammed the door of the master bedroom open, and found the person who "broke into" the room, her figure looked a little faint in the dark, and when she turned around, she revealed a familiar face, it was Louise!
Both were amazed.
"Miss, why are you ......?" asked Sophia, surprised, but for some reason she didn't finish her sentence.
Louise's face was as usual, the clothes on her body were slightly wrinkled, and she said in a flat tone:
"Due to some unexpected reasons, I did not choose to return the next day, but rushed back early."
"Yes, Miss." Sophia whispered, and the "soothsayer" lady who was standing in front of her relaxed and said:
"That's fine, but why didn't you knock on the door and just walk in?"
Louise smiled slightly, knowing that she was a little reckless, and admitted her mistake:
"It's because I didn't think it through, and I won't do it next time, so you can go back and rest."
The maid lady, who is a "spectator", finds Louise in a slightly strange state and can't help but be a little worried, and wants to say something, but is quickly pulled away by Catelin, leaving Louise alone in the room.
She rushed back to Beckland from Pritz Harbor overnight, but did not return to her accommodation immediately, but to 66 Dalton Street in the North End, because it was Will Ansetin's home.
Unfortunately, the building was already empty, and only one servant remained.
In the bedroom, Louise sat at her desk, staring at the three tarot cards in front of her, and finally had no choice but to put them away, since Will Ansettin did not want to meet, then all her attempts were in vain.
Then, she pulled out the high-grade charm given by Councillor Rejord, which emitted a faint white glow in the darkness, like a fluctuation of fate.
…………
The next day, the weather in Beckland was as bad as ever, but that didn't stop some from looking forward to it.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, a crimson halo struck as scheduled, and above the gray mist, it seemed that a few more figures appeared out of thin air in the eternal hall of giants.
Audrey did not immediately greet Mr. "Fool", but turned her head to the right side of her seat, and found a figure that had not been seen before.
Forthth? Stop? Or Louise? If you look at the height, it should be Louise......
"This is Miss 'Power', a new member of the 'Tarot Society'."
Sitting on the bronze long table, Klein, who was shrouded in gray mist, briefly introduced.
The "power" card, which represents divine power and feminine charm, symbolizes infinite energy, and that should be Louise...... Audrey quickly analyzed in her mind.
Alger also noticed the extra female figure in the opposite seat at the first time, and, under his careful attention, especially noticed the slight change in the movements of Miss "Justice", it was almost conclusive:
"The new additions are recommended by Miss Justice."
"The problem is, Miss 'Justice' has boldly recommended three extraordinary people, I wonder which female member of the 'Tarot Society' is the new one?"
"Later in the course of the exchange, you can try a thing or two, but not too aggressively, otherwise Mr. 'Fool' will be disgusted ......"

In contrast, Derick's mind is much simpler, he is happy to see the 'Tarot Society' growing, and he can't wait for Mr. 'Fool' to finish the so-called "Russell's Diary" and enter the stage of free communication.
"Good afternoon, Mr. 'Fool'~ Good afternoon, Mr. 'Hangman'~ Good afternoon, Mr. 'Sun'!"
Audrey half-rises, lifts the hem of her skirt, greets happily, and finally turns to Louise on the left, and says:
"Good afternoon, Miss Power."
Realizing that Audrey was deliberately introducing herself to the members of the "Tarot Society", Louise paused deliberately and followed up to greet everyone.
After this, Mr. "The Hanged Man" respectfully spoke:
"Mr. 'Fool', there are still six pages of 'Russell's Diary' this week."
Watching Alger unfold the six-page diary, Louise, though a little ashamed, pretended to be stunned and said:
Russell...... Diary? ”
Audrey, who remained in the state of "audience", couldn't help but smile, this was the first time she had seen Louise appear so surprised, and explained softly:
"The notes left by Russell the Great, which no one has deciphered so far, are actually his diary, which is a fact confirmed by Mr. 'Fool'."
After relieving Louise, Audrey turned again to the bronze table and said:
"Mr. 'Fool', I also have two pages of my diary."
"Good." Crane bowed slightly in satisfaction, then turned his gaze to the journal in his hand.
…………
Louise had regained her composure, and with a slight rudeness she looked Miss Justice up and down, and after making eye contact with her, she quickly looked away, staring down at the long bronze table in front of her, as if there was some secret on it.
"What's in Russell's diary this week?"
After a moment's thought, a corresponding memory came to her mind:
"Russell mentions Zarathu, his wife's pregnancy, and finally a small description of Nast, the 'King of the Five Seas.'"
It doesn't matter overall, it's just a way to broaden Klein's horizons...... As for the diaries that Louise made up, most of them were meaningless diaries of glamorous hunting, a small amount about Zarathu and the "audience", but I don't know which two pages Audrey presents today?
…………
Klein said that the two-page diary submitted by Miss "Justice" today is useless, except for making him lament the absurd life of Russell, and compared to it, he is simply a failure to live as a time-traveler......
He restrained his emotions, let the diary disappear from his hand, and looked at "Justice" and the others:
"You are free to trade or communicate."
As soon as the words fell, Alger, who was more active than usual, took the lead and said humbly:
"Mr. 'Fool', I have heard a piece of information about the 'Esoteric Society'."
"Let's talk about it." Crane ignored the "Hanged Man's" glances of attempt to communicate alone, and did not shy away from the other members.
This is not only to maintain the status of "god", but the point is that he is also counting on Louise to add more relevant information!
Alger inadvertently glanced at the new Miss Power, and said unhappily:
"The 'Esoteric Order' has a certain connection with the Republic of Intis."
Gone? The leader of the ...... "Esoteric Order" was Zarathu, who was close to Russell and even helped him carry out the famous coup d'état...... Although Russell has fallen, there is a high probability that the "Esoteric Order" will not withdraw from the Republic of Intis, which has been in operation for many years......
Klein first identified the information provided by the "Hanged Man", and then turned his attention to the other three members, focusing on Miss "Force".
