Chapter 175: Return to the "Tarot Society"

Jowood district, 15 Minsk Street.

The street-level two-story townhouse is where Crane found his home in Beckland.

Because he had no identification, he went directly to the door to meet his wife, Starlene Summer, who was next door, through the news in the rental section of the newspaper, to discuss the rent.

After a brief discussion, they agreed on a six-month lease at a rent of £25.

When the contract was signed and the money was paid, Crane, who went by the pseudonym Sherlock Moriarty, was quite distressed, and couldn't help but recall what Benson once said, "The rent in the newspapers is on the high ...... side."

After a night's rest, Crane got busy after breakfast.

He had to prepare for his new career, replenishing his household items and usual occult materials...... In short, there are a lot of things.

While going directly to Valilla could most likely easily solve these problems, Crane didn't want to do so for various reasons.

He didn't know how to deal with Valeera, and he didn't want to rely on others for everything. What's more, the biggest goal in his heart is that he can't tell anyone at all, not anyone!

Crane has figured it out, and his path is destined to be lonely.

Above the Grey Mist, he had subconsciously rejected Valeera's wish to meet, for the same reason, even though he hadn't thought it clearly at the time.

Crane's new profession of choice for himself is a private investigator -

Revenge and promotion are not something that can be achieved overnight, and he does not have enough funds in his hands, so he must have a job that can make a profit, and this job must have enough freedom not to affect his actions and arrangements.

There are not many jobs that can meet this condition, and private investigators are the most suitable choice.

Clean first went to the headquarters of the Beckland Post, spent £30 on a month's small advertisement to promote his detective business, and then went to many shops to buy more and more of the supplies and materials he needed.

By the time everything was ready, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon, and there was still an hour before the "tarot meeting" was called.

Because the expenses were too large, Crane took advantage of this free time to flip through the newspapers, hoping to find a suitable investment project and develop the income.

Unfortunately, reliable investment projects are not so easy to find.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Crane had no choice but to put down the newspaper, return to his room, close the doors and windows, raise the "spiritual wall" to isolate the inside and outside, and come to the gray mist through the "transfer ritual".

He sat down in the high-backed chair of the "Fool", first extended his spirituality, and touched the crimson star that symbolized the "sun" in response to the prayer, and informed him that he was ready to go to the party—

The Silver City, where the "Sun" Daric is located, is located outside the North and South Continents, and the legendary "God's Forsaken Land" is a sinister environment full of dark and monsters all year round, and he can't grasp the exact time of the meeting by himself, so he can't complete the preparation for being alone in advance, so he can only rely on the reminder of the "Fool".

Waiting until three o'clock, Crane reached out and dotted the crimson stars in the gray mist.

Under his pull, five clusters of crimson suddenly appeared next to the ancient and mottled bronze long table, which were stretched into illusory figures.

"Good afternoon, Mr. Fool ~ ...... afternoon"

Audrey happily stood up to say hello, but suddenly noticed that there was an equally illusory and hazy figure in the seat next to her, and she sat beside her, her smooth black hair was simply tied up, her emotions were restrained, and her demeanor was elegant and restrained.

Alger and the other three, who were sitting opposite, were slightly earlier than Audrey, and they noticed Valeera at the first time.

For "The Sun" Derik, this is a new member, and his gaze is filled with curiosity and inquiry; Pierrot's feelings are quite complicated, but he is stuffed in his heart and thinks silently; "The Hanged Man" Alger cautiously retracted the halfway gesture, giving up the idea of preemptively thanking Mr. "The Fool".

"Good afternoon, Mr. Hanged Man ~ Good afternoon, Mr. Tower ~ Good afternoon, Mr. Sun."

Audrey only hesitated slightly, and immediately picked up the previous greeting, continuing to greet each member of the "Tarot Club", and at the same time taking in the emotional reactions of the three people opposite.

Finally, she looked at Valeera and said in a light tone:

"Good afternoon, I am Justice."

Valeera smiled and nodded in response, but did not speak.

She deliberately mimicked some of Miss Sharon's habits in order to distinguish herself from Audrey's acquaintance. In addition, she is also a little unsure of how Alger and Mr. "Tower" will react to her return to the party, and plans to improvise.

"This is Miss 'Temperance'."

Crane looked at Audrey, who was sitting at the top of the long bronze table on the left, and gently introduced herself to Valeera.

He placed Valeera in second place, and deliberately blurred the rhetoric, just to confuse Audrey and make her mistakenly think that Valeera was a new member, so as to help Valeera hide her identity in reality.

After Audrey sat down, there was a brief silence in the giant's palace above the gray mist, and everyone's eyes were basically focused on Valeera.

This reminded Crane of the difficult start of the first two "tarot meetings".

Of course, this is not the same as in the past, and Crane is not at all apprehensive at all, because he is very sure that the current "Tarot Society" has passed the early stage of vulnerability, and this little embarrassment is harmless.

Through observation, Audrey found that the emotions of the two gentlemen, "The Hanged Man" and "Tower", seemed to be somewhat mixed, and they reacted differently from the last time Mr. "Sun" joined.

But because of the gray fog, she couldn't see more.

Valeera, who was in the center of everyone's attention, acted like she had nothing to do with me, and didn't respond to any gaze.

Seeing this, Alger immediately gave up his inquiry into Valeera, turned his head to Mr. "Fool" at the head of the head, and said:

"Mr. Fool, I have obtained a total of 19 pages of Russell's diary this time."

"Here, I must thank you for sending the Scroller to help me get rid of Ziringus, these diaries are my due payment!"

This sentence brought back Crane's former apprehension.

After all, he only passed on the news in this matter, and even the news of the killing of Ziringus was seen from the newspapers.

Missing the Messenger Bronze Whistle, he didn't even know that it was Mr. Azik who did it, but in order to maintain the status of Mr. "Fool" in front of "Justice" and "Hanged Man", he could only take this "black cauldron" head-on.

Who told him to boast that if the Roller happened to be in Beckland, he would help?

"This is the principle of equivalent exchange."

He didn't say much about the scroller, relying on the ability of the "clown" to make his reply tone seem outrageous.

Worthy of Mr. "Fool...... A pirate general with magical items is not taken seriously by her at all...... It seems that I don't need to mention the bounty...... I don't know how many high-level volume people Mr. "Fool" has...... Audrey unconsciously began to get used to using "she" to refer to "the fool".

Of course, Valilla will not take the initiative to expose the fact that she has shared the other half of the bounty.

Instead, she glanced at Alger with an unexpected look, as if she didn't know anything about the killing of Ziringus.

"Tower" Pierrot was neither unexpected nor unexpected.

As a resurrected ancient god, it is normal for Mr. "Fool" to have the strength to kill a pirate general, but ...... Does this have anything to do with the "fools" canceling the meeting?

Whether it was a result or not, he couldn't help but think about it - it was his good habit and his bad habit.

Hearing the "fool's" answer, "The Hanged Man" Alger humbly said:

"The limit of my current memory is six pages, allow me to divide it among you several times."

"No problem." Crane, shrouded in a thick gray mist, bowed his head slightly.

"The Sun" Derick looked at the pages of "The Hanged Man" and was very curious about what it was about.

Based on his previous experience, he believed that the objects that Mr. Fool was interested in must contain many mysteries.

He glanced at Miss "Justice", and saw that the other party had no urge to ask, and cautiously remained silent.

Soon, the six-page diary was completed and came to Crane.

Audrey and the others began to wait quietly, accustomed to things like this.
