Chapter 340: Selling "Friends" for "Glory"
Why do you ask this all of a sudden...... Rebecca now had a somewhat conditioned reflex to Louise's question, for fear of being told something again, and after thinking seriously for two seconds, she carefully replied:
"I haven't killed it."
Louise didn't speak for the first time, and the atmosphere at the table fell silent, which made Rebecca a little uncomfortable, and said in her heart:
"It's not a bad thing that you haven't killed anyone! How I felt as if I had made a big mistake! ”
At this time, the maid lady sitting next to her lightly opened her lips and comforted softly:
"It's okay, I haven't killed either."
Thank you...... Rebecca showed an embarrassed but polite smile, as if she was crazy in her heart: "What kind of organization did you enter?" ”

At this point, Louise was finally willing to speak: "It seems that Russell has protected you well. ”
"But now that you're here, you'll probably be able to experience something you've never experienced before, and trust me, it'll make you fly."
Ah, really...... Met Louise's calm gaze, Rebecca replied with some hesitation, "Okay, okay...... Sister. ”
Louise then turned her gaze to Miss "The Fortune Teller," and it was not until the latter nodded reluctantly that she said with satisfaction:
"Well, things are so happily decided, I hope you get along well."
For Louise, she couldn't trust Rebecca the way she trusted Sophia, but she couldn't leave her out and needed to find something to do for her.
As a result, the "Esoteric Society" became a good target, which would not affect Louise's final plan and would not be noticed.
It is not a particularly rare thing for a wild extraordinary person to have a grudge against the secret organization "Esoteric Society", although it is rare for Louise to take the initiative to attack, but this is just a question worth thinking about, which can completely attract the attention of people with intentions and create time and space for their real actions.
When it was settled, Louise got up and left the table, leaving three young ladies with their own thoughts looking at each other.
Rebecca always felt that Catelyn had a kind of hostility and resentment towards her, as if she had robbed her of something, and the personal maid Sophia next to her was obviously not ordinary, not like a maid at all.
After a brief silence, the deadlock was broken by the maid's mouth:
"Miss, she's not usually like this."
…………
Louise returned to her bedroom and took a short nap.
After awakening, she went to the study, pondered for a long time, and finally made up her mind to perform a ritual recitation:
"The Holy Spirit chases knowledge;
"A beacon of the mystical world;
"Peeking into the eyes of fate;
"The king of the sea;
"Holy Bernadette Gustaf."
"The things you asked me to investigate, there are already some results."
Yes, Louise is going to "betray" some of Crane's information for the time being...... That's why she hesitated just now.
However, Crane had enough secrets and waistcoats that the slightest leak would have little effect on him, and Louise needed to keep in touch with Bernadette, who had been confident in providing a follow-up recipe for the "witch" pathway.
It's a shortcut, and Louise doesn't want to try any harder......
Soon, Louise, who knelt silently in place, and her thoughts were wandering, heard a familiar voice, and replied in a calm tone:
"I see."
That's it...... Louise opened her eyes and stared at the burning candle in front of her, very puzzled, how could she be cut off before she could tell the information?
Could it be that Bernadette is not interested in this? That's even more unlikely, she can't be indifferent to Russell's clues.
This suspicion remained until the evening, when Bernadette came to 59 Agram Street in person.
The "mysterious queen" appeared in a different way, but it was still full of fairy tales, and a bronze carriage pulled by four horses sat under her, slowly landing on the ground.
Louise was amazed at the stain, and she realized that it wasn't that Bernadette didn't value her own information, but that she took it too seriously.
Probably only the "imposter gods" like Crane would always hide in the gray mist, and a powerful extraordinary person like Bernadette, who was only one ritual away from the angelic person, was naturally more unscrupulous, so she came in person.
"You've always stayed in Beckland?" Louise asked curiously.
Bernadette bowed slightly, which was considered to be an answer to the question, and then went straight to the point:
"What about your findings?"
I'm really anxious...... Louise made a serious and responsible appearance and gushed:
"Through my painstaking and painstaking investigation...... Finally found a clue. ”
"The one who stole the 'Steam Church'...... No, the mysterious man who stole one of your 'blasphemy cards' has something to do with the 'Fool'. ”
Bernadette stared at the exaggerated Louise, her eyes slightly condensed, she didn't feel much about the latter's act of asking for credit, but there was one thing that could not be ignored...... She frowned sharply and said suspiciously:
"Fools?"
Louise nodded heavily and replied affirmatively, "It's the 'Fool'." ”
"The mysterious guy who stole your 'blasphemy card' is most likely a follower of the 'Fool'."
As a big man in the mysterious world, Bernadette, who inherited most of Russell's legacy, naturally knew what the word "fool" meant, but it shocked her even more.
"Fool", when did the "fool" appear in the way of the soothsayer? Bernadette thought of many possibilities...... Then she asked:
"Where did you get the information, is it accurate?"
Louise had already thought about answering: "I can guarantee the accuracy of the information." ”
Seeing this, Bernadette was inconvenient to ask more, because she knew that Louise's identity was very complicated, so she sighed helplessly and said:
"Do you know what 'Fool' means?"
Louise was silent, chose to acquiesce, and then prompted:
"The Aurora Society is following the clues of the Fool's followers."
This means that the "fool" should have really been born...... Bernadette became more and more puzzled, when she was promoted to sequence 0, it was difficult to be silent, could it be that this "fool" was an ancient god who was recovering? Or maybe it's a friend of Russell's?
Suddenly, Louise spoke again:
"Recently, the 'Esoteric Order' has been somewhat active, sending several members to Beckland and taking something from Duke Negan."
Bernadette, who was interrupted from her train of thought, frowned slightly, looked down at Louise, who was acting very respectfully, and said:
"Why did you tell me this information, it has nothing to do with what I asked you to investigate?"
