Chapter 376: Win-Win
Under Louise's inducement, Bernadette inevitably had some doubts and speculations.
But at the same time, the glimmer of hope that has been hidden in the depths of my heart is slowly emerging.
Through Louise's description, Bernadette already had some guesses, not necessarily accurate, but it is certain that she must have some connection with Rusell.
The little "witch" in front of her, although she has some secrets, but the matter related to the "Black Emperor" and Russell is not a secret that she should know, but she can talk eloquently, there must be someone behind her...... Perhaps, the "fool" Mr. wants to reach a certain degree of tacit understanding with himself through Louise? Does this also prove that she is not in a winning form, but in some kind of predicament?
A number of thoughts crossed Bernadette's mind, a little jumbled, after all, it was about one of the most important pursuits of her life, the trail of Russell.
She stared at Louise silently, her deep gaze revealing thought, and after a long time, she spoke:
"Are you sure that the Fool knows Russell's whereabouts?"
Louise nodded solemnly:
"I'm sure Mr. 'Fool' will know."
Bernadette nodded slightly, seemingly impressed by Louise's confident, "righteous and awe-inspiring" promise, but she didn't know the second half of Louise's unspoken sentence:
"It doesn't matter if Crane knows it or not, it's good that I know, anyway, Mr. 'Fool' is just a faΓ§ade!"
Originally, Bernardette would have known about this information, but in the future, Louise only advanced this time a little earlier, and the benefits from it were incalculable...... After all, a "rich woman" like Bernadette is hard to find a second one with a lantern!

Sure enough, Bernadette quickly made a decision and spoke:
"The next time we meet, I'll bring you something."
Louise was overjoyed, but on the surface she was restrained, but what she heard next was even more surprising:
"Including the potion ingredient you need, 'Pas Toad'."
"Thank you very much for your kindness." Louise got up and said respectfully, she never hesitated to respect when she could get a vital benefit.
Bernadette waved her hand and emphasized:
"This counts as a reward for my advance to you, but you should also help me find an answer to my question as soon as possible."
Louise nodded seriously, her self-awareness was very clear, and she was acting as a "middleman" at this time...... Of course, this is in Bernadette's eyes.
And in reality?
Mr. "Fool" would not have known about this at all, and all the information about Bernadette came from Louise's mouth, so she got a copy of the main potion ingredient of the "Witch of Pain", which was also a well-deserved reward.
Anyway, Crane and Bernadette won't see each other for a long time, and Louise doesn't worry about being exposed...... Moreover, she didn't deceive people with false information, but just used the name of "fool" to prop up the field, how can this kind of mutually beneficial thing be said to be unfair?
"I have a hunch......" Louise's vivid expression changed into Bernadette's eyes, and she said suddenly:
"Your relationship with the 'Fool' is not as simple as it seems."
Then, without waiting for Louise to retort, Bernadette continued:
"And your secret is not this one...... So, who are you? β
Becoming interested in someone or something is often the beginning of everything...... Louise smiled brightly and introduced herself:
"I'm just a little 'witch', that's it."
Bernadette got up happily, did not linger, but said before "turning her head":
"The next time we meet, hopefully we'll all get a satisfactory outcome."
Louise looked at the empty study in front of her, slowly sat back in her chair, and said with a smile:
"Yes, yes."

On Monday morning, Audrey was continuing to listen to a psychology class.
Although she has accepted the invitation and is about to join the "Psychological Alchemy Society", this attitude still has to be put on, and she doesn't want people to feel like a half-person.
After politely sending off the psychology teacher, Miss "Justice", who was alone, stretched out ungracefully, and then collapsed on the soft cushions behind her.
At this time, Susie, the "utopian dog" wearing a red vest and gold-rimmed glasses, suddenly spoke, and she asked:
"Audrey, can I join the 'Psychological Alchemy Society' with you? Their theories are interesting. β
Miss "Justice" was slightly stunned, she looked down at her feet, Susie was sitting on the ground obediently, her inquisitive gaze was unusually obvious, she hesitated for a moment and then replied:
"Probably not, but I'll bring you with me to the party."
Susie nodded earnestly, as if agreeing with this approach, she "swooped" twice, and then ran out of the room.
Just when Audrey was wondering about this, Susie soon returned, still with a stack of newspapers in her mouth.
It turned out that today's newspaper had not yet been delivered to ...... It dawned on Audrey that she didn't have a newspaper today because she had a psychology class in the morning...... Well, with Susie
Audrey reached out and took the newspaper, put it on the desk in front of her, and then let Susie jump lightly onto the sofa and sit side by side with her, ready to take a look at today's front page headlines, it won't be any lace news......
However, Audrey just opened the newspaper, and before she could start, there was a knock on the door in her ears, and she and Susie looked at each other, smiled helplessly, and then said:
"Please come in."
"Dad, why are you here?" Audrey stood up suddenly, and was a little surprised to find that it was Earl Hall who had walked into the room.
Earl Hall smiled and jokingly said:
"I need a reason to care about my daughter?"
Audrey stepped forward, gently grabbed Count Hall's arm, and said coquettishly:
"How so! I just think you're supposed to be working at this point in time. β
Earl Hall sat on the sofa opposite, and said:
"Originally, there was some work, but I also had some things to ask you, so I put it off for the time being."
He glanced at the unopened newspaper on the table and asked:
"Do you know what's headlining today?"
Audrey shook her head: "I haven't seen it yet." β
Earl Hall's voice was a little heavy, and he asked himself:
"Duke Negan is dead."
