Chapter 106: Seminars
"Is it about that vampire Emlyn White last time?"
Sitting down on the sofa next to the convex belly window, Sherlock pushed the gold-rimmed glasses on his nose and took the initiative to ask.
"Yes, it's been a week since I last went to the Harvest Church," Angel said, nodding, "since he hasn't done anything evil, I think I can talk to Father Utravsky at the church and let him out." ”
"Actually, I have this plan, the detective who also entrusted me to find Emlin last time learned that he was locked up in the church, and hoped that I could rescue him, his parents, well, the same vampire Mr. and Mrs. White, they have moved out of 48 Riverbend Avenue, but have been paying attention to Emlin's situation, they are both doctors, not only did not do evil deeds, but left a good reputation among the neighbors, so I want to help them."
Angel was still worried about how to convince the detective, but he didn't expect that the other party received the corresponding commission, and he could just let him come forward to communicate with the priest and rescue Emlyn.
If it weren't for the fact that she was too busy these days and wanted to go and meet the missionary priest herself, Sherlock promised to go to the Harvest Church tomorrow and try to save the hapless vampire from the priest of Mother Earth.
"But you have to be careful, Father Utravsky is the Warrior Path Sequence 6, 'Knight of the Dawn', and now he believes in Mother Earth, you don't have to fight him in the church, if he doesn't want to let him go, find another way."
Angel admonished.
"I'll do a divination first to make sure it's safe to do it before I go, and you know, my extraordinary abilities are good for running for my life."
Sherlock laughed self-deprecatingly.
Speaking of divination, Angel once again felt embarrassed in front of this real fortune teller, always feeling that the other party was deliberately bringing up this kind of topic, faintly mocking his shameful behavior as a "master of divination".
Fortunately, she has been promoted to sequence 6, not only the magic mirror divination that she has been proficient in since the beginning of the witch, but also the divination ability such as the pendulum, coin, and divination staff has also made great progress, thinking of this, she tried to ask the magician if he had any books on divination, and was ready to borrow it to study it well, improve his level as soon as possible, and get rid of the fate of being ridiculed.
"Book ......" Sherlock thought for a moment as he twisted his beard and nodded, "I recently acquired a copy of the Book of Secrets, which contains a lot of summaries of rituals, divination, and secret contracts, which may be helpful to you. But I'm learning what I'm learning, and maybe I'll lend it to you in a while. ”
I didn't expect Sherlock to actually have a book on divination, and although he just drew a big pie for her, it still satisfied her.
Of course, this kind of borrowing usually comes at a cost, and Angel only has more than 100 pounds of cash left in his body at this time, and I am afraid that he will have to find a way to sell the potion formula, or the useless extraordinary properties, in order to borrow this "Book of Secrets", which sounds like a lot of money.
"By the way, Mr. Sherlock, I was at a secret gathering of the Extraordinary, and I found someone buying the extraordinary traits of the 'Sheriff' and the 'Inquisitor' in a high-profile manner......"
She remembered the information she had seen at Mr. A's rally and told him her concerns, reminding him not to sell the "Interrogator" trait in his hands in the near future, lest someone who was looking for the "Black Emperor" find clues and discover the behavior of the two.
"Similar to my suspicion, the people above Caping must have been a little unprepared for his death, which is why they are so hurried and flamboyant to look for clues......"
Sherlock said with a hint of sarcasm in his tone, as if he didn't care about the forces behind the people he was tracking.
Angel had only reminded him that he didn't care, and that he didn't say much, and that the main purpose of the trip—to entrust him to save Emlyn White—had been achieved, and he was ready to say goodbye and leave.
If it weren't for the fact that she was going to protect Audrey for the seminar tomorrow, she could only take time out to come over today, she didn't want to come to Sherlock's house at night, even if Rune was more open, and being alone at night would have some bad effects on the detective's reputation.
After Angel learned how to play the "Witch of Pleasure" from Lola, this kind of thought appeared in her mind from time to time, and at the moment her attention was focused on the current situation of "being alone", and some strange thoughts involuntarily popped up.
"Ahem, I hope you can get that hapless vampire out soon, after all, I owe him a favor."
After hastily leaving a sentence without a beginning or end, Angel fled away from Sherlock's house, leaving behind a curious detective.
————
On Sunday evening, Audrey Hall walked down the stairs with her dog, Susie, and left the living room to the carriage that had been waiting by the door.
This time, at the invitation of psychiatrist Eastland, Audrey reported to her father, Earl Hall, because Eastland had come to Hall's home many times to teach Audrey about psychology, and the Count was no stranger to this lady, so he agreed to her request.
But the cautious eldest brother Hibbert Hall still let Audrey bring two escorts, both of them are from the military, they have participated in the war in the Southern Continent, and it is not a problem to deal with general dangers, but unfortunately, fortunately, they are not extraordinary......
Looking at the two guards who were already sitting in the other carriage, Audrey thought to herself.
She boarded the carriage with the help of the maid Anne, and in the carriage was already sitting a young woman, with long black hair and a featureless round face, dressed today in a trouser that was easy to move, a black trench coat, and a brand new revolver pinned to her waist, which made Anne look sideways and frown.
But Audrey liked this heroic style of dressing, which reminded her of the retired female soldier who briefly taught her female self-defense techniques last year, but unfortunately Audrey was not interested in it at the time and quickly dropped the course.
"Miss Erin, thank you for accompanying me to this seminar."
After taking her seat, Audrey whispered hello.
Erin Watson smiled and nodded, and after Anne closed the door, the two carriages drove off for Hilston.
As the carriage left King's Avenue and passed by the Bakerland Police Headquarters "West Villas Field", Audrey withdrew her gaze from the window and moved to Erin, who was sitting across from her, with her eyes closed, and suddenly asked:
"Miss Erin, do you think tonight's seminar will go well?"
The latter opened his eyes and looked at Audrey with curiosity, then nodded in response as if he understood what she meant:
"There may be some twists and turns, but it should be smooth."
This means that her divination skills suggest that there will be some danger in this trip.
No wonder she brought her weapons and prepared for the worst......
Audrey thought.
Although she could see that Eastland's invitation was kind, it didn't mean that accidents wouldn't happen, but fortunately, having Miss "Queen" by her side this time gave her a little sense of security. Ever since she learned about the occult world and the various abilities of the Extraordinary, she didn't think that ordinary guards could protect herself in the hands of the Extraordinary.
But will this deepen the "Queen's" suspicion of me? After all, she claims to be a "soothsayer" and does not have the ability to fight head-on, and I insisted that she accompany her to this risky psychology seminar......
Audrey carefully observed Irene's expression, the other party looked a little vigilant, with a little helplessness, but there was no doubt, which made her feel a little relieved.
Looking at Annie, the personal maid beside her, who was looking down to sort out the contents of her handbag, she didn't notice that the atmosphere in the carriage was a little strange, but Susie, who was lying on the floor of the carriage, stared at Erin Watson with round eyes.
"Susie, you're exposing yourself so easily! And if Miss 'Queen' finds out that you are also a 'spectator', it will be tantamount to revealing my identity, after all, I once asked the animals at the tarot meeting how they behaved after taking potions......"
She blushed a little, but the mind reader's expression management quickly brought her back to her composure, until the carriage came to Böningham Road in Hilston and stopped in front of a classic-looking villa.
The dark-haired, baby-faced lady Isrant Ossleyka was already waiting at the door of the villa.
