Chapter 79: Earl Hall's House

"Welcome, Miss Erin Watson, Miss Audrey is already waiting for you in the reception room."

On Sunday afternoon, Angel arrived punctually at Earl Hall's house in Queens, where a maid was already waiting at the door and warmly received her.

Led by the maid into this luxurious villa, Angel was stunned for a moment by the bright hall, the countless paintings and decorations on the walls, and the antiques in every corner of the corridor.

"The painting facing the gate, which I have scarcely seen, is probably more than 2,000 pounds, and they have a 'sun brooch' hanging on the wall......

Still remembering yesterday's miraculous item, she followed the unsquinting maid down the long corridor to the west side of the reception room, where Audrey Hall sat in a suede chair by the wide floor-to-ceiling window, and was pleasantly conversing with a group of noble children, who were elegantly behaved and richly dressed, and who were obviously not of low status.

Angel recognized two of them as young nobles who had previously gone to the Russell the Great exhibition and had a relationship with each other, and Viscount Glerlint was among them, and the other three had never seen them.

Hugh Dilcha and Forth Wall were not present, and Angel guessed that Audrey had only invited the children of the nobility, and that she was "the niece of Baroness Severia Langdon" was barely among them.

With Audrey, who is good at active scenes, and Viscount Glerint also knowing Angel, after a brief greeting, these young nobles quickly accepted the new members, and she also joined this small occult salon, sitting at the coffee table, drinking imported West Mountain coffee from Fenerport, while enjoying delicate and delicious desserts, listening to the nobles exchange their opinions.

Undoubtedly, their focus was precisely what happened in Beckland this week, the killing of Gapin's "Rogue Black Emperor".

"That 'Black Emperor' really has extraordinary abilities, is he extraordinary?"

Christine, a sweet-looking lady asked curiously.

Angel already knew that these noble children came from families of high status, which allowed them who were interested in occultism to be exposed to rumors of "extraordinary powers", but they were unwilling to lower their status, join the extraordinary armament of the Orthodox Church, or enter the military to seek promotion, while their families were not old enough to have their own potions recipe inheritance, so they were very interested in any news involving occult powers.

It's similar to Miss Justice when she first joined the "Tarot Society", but unfortunately they are not as lucky as "Just" Audrey to get the potion formula......

Looking at Audrey, who was quietly guiding the conversation in the room, Angel thought silently.

"There's not much I can say, and you shouldn't spread it around." A tall and thin young nobleman took a sip of coffee and said in a low voice, as if he was plotting some illegal and criminal acts, "Kapin's villa was half blown up, and the restaurant where the battle took place was even more in disarray, with wind on all sides, and there were mysterious traces of frost, flames, resentful spirits, and stand-ins, and the servants and bodyguards in it were even dead. ”

His name is Cons Leerson, and although he is an aristocrat, he joined MI9 after graduating from university, and his speech attracted everyone to look at him and look forward to the follow-up.

Of course, Angel was pretending, and as one of the parties involved, she even knew exactly what Capping was eating before she died, but she still pretended to be interested.

"During the whole battle, this rogue, the 'Black Emperor', was in a ghost state, and most importantly, the Storm Church found that a second extraordinary person was present, but all divination, channeling failed, and nothing was found!"

"You mean, two extraordinaries entered the Kaping house and had a fierce fight in the restaurant?"

Audrey covered her mouth, her beautiful eyes showing a look of surprise.

"No, it's supposed to be these two 'thieves' who fought with the extraordinary people of the Kaping family...... Could it be that there is more than one extraordinary person in his family, but he is just a human trafficker? ”

Viscount Glerint took a sip of the fragrant Queen's black tea, took Audrey's words, and put forward his own opinion.

Conse laughed lightly and replied, "Glerint's guess is correct, I can't say more, I understand everything, and I can't help it if I don't understand." ”

That's all it takes......

Angel was surprised that what MI9 knew was close to the truth, maybe this time the official extraordinary person had a deeper cooperation with the military, because of what Kapin did behind his back, or because there was too much commotion, and the "substitute punisher" himself could not deal with it?

"I read in the newspaper that Caping was covered with a lot of tarot cards and even had a 'Emperor' on his face?"

She added the topic at the right time, so as not to be too reticent and make herself more visible.

MI9's Cons glanced at Angel, nodded and replied:

"Yes, this 'Black Emperor' sprinkled Tarot cards all over Kapin, the kind of common cards that can be bought everywhere, exactly one deck, and he picked out two to cover his face, one for 'Judgment' and one for 'Emperor'. Newspapers are always interested in this kind of content and report it in a big way, but they don't know that this is already the second 'tarot trial' this month. ”

"Tarot Trial?"

A chubby aristocrat named Murray asked in surprise.

"At the beginning of the month, at the dockyard of East Bailang, the 'night watchmen' joined forces with us to destroy a cult station and stop a plot that might endanger the safety of the people, after which a major member of the cult was killed in the sewers while fleeing, and died a miserable death."

The more Cons spoke, the lower his voice became, causing the other nobles present to lean forward and approach him.

"He's the same as Kapin, he's also covered with tarot cards, all of them 'queen' cards!"

"Ahh Christine covered her mouth with her hands and sat up straight in surprise, but her eyes were full of excitement, "'Queen' card!" It's too, it's so cool! ”

This strange-sounding word, which has no practical meaning in any Chinese language, was first used publicly by Russell, and in the more than a hundred years since his death, it has gradually become synonymous with everything that makes young people feel fashionable and excited.

Queen?

Angel was a little curious, and after she killed Lanrius, flames flashed into the street in front of the night watchmen who had arrived, and quickly left the docks, not doing any of these things at all.

Thinking of the empty safe in Kaping's house, she began to wonder if there was really a secret organization that followed her, faked the scene, grabbed profits, and detained all the pots on herself?

This made her feel a little depressed, and she didn't get the money, but the news that the "Grand Thief" swept away the Kaping family spread, and this kind of thing of making wedding dresses for others was extremely unpleasant.

It's a pity that she can only sigh "amazing, amazing" now.

"Knock-"

There was a knock at the door, and the maid guarding the door opened the crack in the door, and after a moment came to the table, and said to Glerint, who was immersed in the case of the Extraordinary One trying human traffickers, "Your Excellency, Mr. Hall is looking for you, Mr. Hibbert Hall. ”

Glerint apologized and left with the maid.

Angel sat next to him, heard the conversation, and his heart moved, and after a few minutes, he excused himself to go to the bathroom and leave the lively reception room.

There were two maids standing at the door, waiting for the guests, and Angel asked one of them to lead the way to the bathroom, and as she passed through the hallway, she saw Glerint standing in a circle with three other men, discussing something.

Vaguely surrounded in the center was a handsome-looking, brilliant-haired man, and based on his hair color and Severia's previous introduction, Angel recognized it as Earl Hall's eldest son, Hibbert Hall.

“…… Sir Xiao also suggested that the selection of candidates should be ......"

He whispered to Glerint, who lowered his head and listened intently.

Seeing someone talking in the hallway, the footsteps of the maid leading the way became heavy and muffled on the carpet, and the kind reminder made the four men who were discussing stop the conversation, and they all raised their heads and looked at the comer.

"Hello, Miss Irene." Gleilynt took the initiative to say hello, "Hibbert, this is Miss Erin Watson, the niece of Baroness Severia Langdon, and Audrey's new friend. ”

"Hello, Miss Watson, I'm Hibbert Hall, and I hope you're pleased with my hospitality."

Hibbert said with an enthusiastic but somewhat templated smile.

"Thank you, Mr. Hall, I'm a little flattered by the enthusiasm of everyone."

That's how it should be answered, I remember it in the book of aristocratic etiquette...... Angel recalls the contents of the book and copes with the sudden conversation.

Fortunately, several gentlemen seemed to have an urgent matter to discuss, and after a few pleasantries, they quickly left the corridor and went to another room.

Angel came to the bathroom, left the maid outside, closed the door by herself, and looked at the room that was almost bigger than her own living room, and felt a little emotional for a while.

"By the way, take this opportunity to do a divination, maybe you can get some useful information...... Glerint and Hibbert are both members of the 'Air Pollution Investigation Commission', and what they were talking about just now is probably the matter of the Commission......"

She quickly regained her composure, first opened the newly purchased handbag, and reached for the "Crimson Eye" in the corner, the moment her fingertips touched the extraordinary properties of this tainted object, the position and movement of the whole building, nay, most of the living creatures in the villa, appeared in her mind.

Within a radius of 50 meters, you can't even cover the entire villa, this is not a villa, it's just a castle! And how could there be so many people in the villa, I almost didn't see a few servants all the way over, but with the help of extraordinary abilities, I could actually see more than 30 servants working everywhere......

Angel was struck by this fact, but then she spotted two distinctive, bright red figures in her mind.

It's the Extraordinary, the Extraordinary's bodyguard who protects Earl Hall's family!
