Esther's new home in the Bridge District was quickly confirmed, and she didn't have much to offer, only a suitcase more than when she went to the East End. In addition to the gold pounds that were thrown to Klein for him to help watch, Esther herself also kept about a hundred gold pounds in cash, mainly in the denomination of one gold pound and hardware pounds, as reserved for weekday expenses.

During the day, she is still in several economically relaxed and densely populated areas, looking for cafes everywhere to do the business of playing and attracting customers, and she has not slackened because she has obtained this funding, and she also has to plan for the future.

"Where did you get all this money?" Xiao Wu, who has been sleeping for too long recently, finally woke up, and he was quite surprised by Esther's sudden wealth, "You finally got the hang of it and decided to play the 'thief'?" ”

"No, I only made that order—" Esther swallowed the puffs she had at hand in two bites, took out her handkerchief and wiped her mouth, "and then went on to a good life, hehe." ”

Xiao Wuhu turned around suspiciously, didn't comment much, and asked instead, "Hasn't that guy come back yet?" ”

"Xiao Qi has indeed not heard from ......" Esther did not directly say the worry behind it, for fear that she would accidentally tell Xiao Qi that something had happened.

"No, at most, it's just a loss of freedom." Xiao Wu replied lazily, seemingly unconcerned.

Esther hesitated for a few seconds, she really didn't have much to discuss, so she had to ask Xiao Wu, who seemed to have a long family history: "So, do you know the history of the Second and Third Ages?" ”

"It depends on what you're asking, how do you know if I can answer if you don't ask?"

"There's an ancient god who met the lark who gave him a ring," Esther said almost omitting the entire story, picking out only the most uninteresting synopsis, "Do you know anything about it?" ”

Xiao Wu thought for a long time, and it wasn't until Esther finished eating the last two leftover cream puffs that it slowly shook its head: "I don't know, because I can't know." ”

"Can't know?"

"You can consider it a secret of the 'Amon family', and I can only be regarded as a midstream sub-personnel, and the head of the family is also a 'thief' way, and he stole most of the family members' related ideas."

Esther frowned, "Is he still alive now?" ”

"Of course, once you reach the level of a saint, your lifespan can no longer be measured in human time. The 'Tail Eater' of your dreams, Ulorius, is a ready-made example of this, who has survived from the Second Age to the present day. ”

However, what Xiao Wu didn't say was that Esther herself was likely to be such an example, and he had no evidence now, so he could only guess.

"His name is Ulorius...... Esther silently wrote down the name, "but why did that master of your family steal the idea of this lark?" No wonder when you discussed with Xiao Qi before, the two of you were stunned from time to time. ”

"A sinister and nasty guy who has to cheat even his own family members," Xiao Wu seemed to have quite a lot of dissatisfaction, "In other words, it would be better for you to understand that he has set some kind of collective rule, which causes our knowledge of that topic to be constantly stolen." ”

"Stealing the minds of most of your members? It's really a 'thief' style. ”

Xiao Wu lowered his head: "So I can't help you at all in this matter, and Xiao Qi can only help you." ”

Although she didn't know the "head of the house", Esther already disliked him a little: "What's the point of him stealing this lark's bird?" It's annoying to leave no clues at all. ”

"Maybe it's because the lark offended him, the offense was too bad, and he held a grudge."

Esther was silent for several seconds before she said, "No need, this is to make me suddenly have a potential enemy...... Although I'm not a lark, can't I get around him if I want to track down this matter? ”

"I don't know, like I told you, I can't know."

Xiao Wu shook his head, curled up into a small ball again, and fell into a deep sleep that ignored Esther.

Esther rubbed her right eyebrow, feeling that things were getting more and more troublesome.

After a moment's thought, she had no idea where to start her search, and could only plan to go to the library first to rummage through the antique historical stories.

There is no news on the face of the Fifth Age, so there is a high probability that this family will make a fortune in the Fourth Age, or even earlier?

If you really can't find a clue, you'll have to trouble the fellow again.

——

On Monday evening, Esther took to Minsk Street again with apple pie, macaroons and sweet iced tea and knocked on the door of the fifteenth.

Lady Seventeen, accompanied by a maid, was preparing to go out, waiting for the hired carriage on the side of the road. Seeing her look at her, Esther smiled and nodded in a friendly smile, for she had something in her hand and could only barely curtsy.

The lady with the jeweled necklace looked at Esther with a little surprise, and then smiled back enthusiastically, even a little excited.

Soon Klein opened the door and welcomed Esther into the house.

Esther smiled and asked, "How is it, didn't bother you, did you?" ”

"Of course not. You've brought so many things with you? That's so kind. ”

"Food tastes better when someone shares it."

Klein took Esther's things, brewed a pot of Xibe black tea, and brought it to the low table in the reception room, he knew that Esther didn't like coffee, and he had been like this since Tingen, so he didn't need to ask.

"There's no news yet on that Extraordinary's gathering, and I haven't found the time to acquire the weapon you want."

Esther remembered that there was something else going on:

"Prioritize a dagger or a dagger, because my extraordinary sequences have a bonus to hand control. Weapons that are too big to carry are inconvenient to carry, and if you have a firearm, it depends on the situation, and I don't know if there are extraordinary weapons that don't need bullets. ”

Klein nodded, "I see." But you're here today for something else, right? ”

Esther was a little distraught when she entered the door, and seeing her staring at the teacup in a daze, Crane had this speculation.

"Yes, because your circle of extraordinaries is much wider than mine, and I'm curious if you've ever heard about a certain family."

"A very old family?"

"It's not the Fifth Age, it's supposed to be the Fourth Age family, I went to the public library to look for it, and there is almost no information left. You also know that there is little official record of the history of the Quaternary on the surface. ”

Klein didn't mind sharing with Esther what he had heard from Russell the Great's diary and Tarot meetings: "I can look it up for you, maybe I've heard it too." ”

"I trust the knowledge of the history students, so I'm here to find you," Esther smiled and looked at Klein, "I heard that the family's surname is 'Amon'." ”

The cold hairs on the back of Crane's neck exploded instantly, and the experience of driving away evil spirits for the "sun" almost caused the gray mist to be invaded left a big shadow on him.

He struggled to maintain his apparent composure, and nodded slightly: "It seems that this is indeed the family of the Fourth Age, and I heard some rumors about it at the secret meeting of a certain extraordinary person. ”

"I'm a little curious about what the family is all about, and what the family members and the 'family head' are like."

Klein didn't immediately tell what he knew, and hearing the name "Amon" pop up randomly from Esther's mouth, a strong chill broke out of his back: "I can help you inquire, but I can't guarantee how much I will gain." ”

Esther was relieved to see that Klein had agreed, and reminded him by the way:

"If you really meet a member of that family, you must be careful, how can their family head also be a 'Sage'. He was able to live to the Fifth Age, and he had already surpassed the scope of human beings. ”

Seeing that Klein was silent, Esther added, "Even if their family members have been out of society for a long time, they have left no trace at all, which is too abnormal. ”

"It's really weird."

"I'm worried that 'Zoya' has a conflict with him and will make me be targeted, so the investigation into this name can be put aside for now. If your divination is in danger, you can give up investigating the Amun family, and I don't want to cause you trouble. ”

Crane nodded silently, a copper penny twirling between his fingers, but never tossing it.
