7days ago Fantasy Novels 14
Joewood District, inside the house where Hugh and Forth rented.

Fors had just finished the beginning of the new book and was in a good mood to reward himself with a cigarette. At this time, Xiu pushed the door and entered the study.

Smoking is harmful to health.Shu said with a sniff.

Seeing that she was confused on her face, Forsy didn't argue and asked instead:

It seems like you have encountered something?

Xu grabbed his rough blonde hair and sat down on the chair next to him:

The person who contacted me before was the person who sold the "Sheriff" formula to me through others at the party convened by Mr. A.

He gave me a relatively simple task, the initial reward was 30 pounds, and I don’t know if there is any hidden danger in it…

Forss recalled:

That person Ah... There should be an organization behind him, but why do you think about winning over you, and aren't you afraid of being implicated by your IQ, which will lead to the complete destruction of the entire organization?You have nothing to be plotted against. You look barely OK, but you are too short and your life is more valuable... Uh, what mission?

Xiu had long been used to being hit by friends, and ignored her previous words and answered the question directly:

Investigate someone has inquired about Kaping recently.

Kaping?The trafficker who should be hanged, no, should he be stolen?Although Fors is not a bounty hunter, collecting material is the instinct of the writer, so she often asks Hug to tell stories and rumors.

Xiu nodded: It was him, but he was dead, and it seemed that he was still tragically dead.

How did he die?Was he cut to death by a knife?Fors asked quite happily and curiously.

That person did not describe in detail, maybe the newspaper will talk about it tomorrow.He could not think about it for two seconds. He only mentioned the special situation at the scene, saying that Kaping's body was sprinkled with tarot cards, and his face was covered with 'Judgement' cards and 'Emperor' cards.

The ‘trial’ card should mean ‘the trial of Kaping, and the result is a death penalty’. What does the ‘Emperor’ card represent?That murderer, no, the identity of that hero?Bestselling writer Forth instinctively interprets the unique arrangement of the crime site.

Suddenly, she was stunned for a moment.

Tarot card?The corpse is full of tarot cards?Fors suddenly thought of the secret organization he had just joined:

Tarots!

Could it be that any member of us did it?

But there is no member of the code name Emperor Ah... If so, this is the first time I have discovered traces of the Tarot Club in the real world... We are not just a secret organization that only exists on the gray fog... Fores's thoughts are churning, with surprises and worries.

…………

Under the guidance of the waiter, Klein entered the familiar living room.

There was still only one candle in the room, and the dim light shone around like a scene in a ghost story. With mysterious people wearing black robes and iron masks, the atmosphere became even stronger.

As soon as he stepped into this place, Klein suddenly felt something inexplicable.

He felt the swaying candlelight staring at him.

He felt that the flame would burst out suddenly, igniting his hair and robe.

He felt that the quietly hanging curtains behind the convex belly window would suddenly sway, covering his body, covering his mouth and nose for breathing, and forcibly suffocating himself to death.

What's going on?Klein was stunned and tense.

This is not a dangerous premonition, but it is an intuition that is difficult to avoid.

Klein carefully found a seat to sit down.

As soon as his butt touched the surface of the chair, he felt that the chair would burst open suddenly, and thick wooden thorns would penetrate his body.

This reminded him of several videos he had watched while on Earth. The poor-quality air-pressure lifting seat exploded. Steel rods and debris pierced into the owner's buttocks and into his abdomen. The whole scene was bloody and terrible.

Why are there always such bad associations?

Could it be the negative impact of spiritual injuries in previous battles?

Klein looked around thoughtfully and found that the chubby pharmacist had not come this time.

What happened?Or have you left Beckland?Klein said silently to himself, and heard the old gentleman announce the start of the party by Eye of Wisdom.

In the following time, Klein sometimes felt that the chandelier on the ceiling would fall slanted and hit his head, sometimes thought that the coffee table in front of the old man would suddenly move horizontally and trip him, sometimes suspected that the party members around him were full of malice and might start attacks at any time.

This made him restless, both vigilant and puzzled, and had no intention of paying attention to various transactions that were successful or miscarriage.

If the premonition of danger is occasionally vibrating a few times, reminding you that there is news and a phone call comes in, then the inexplicable intuition now is equivalent to a constant electric drill, shaking so hard that I can't relax and can't pay attention to other things... Klein tried to rub his forehead, but touched the cold iron mask.

At this moment, he felt that his iron mask would suddenly sink, pressing against his face and be embedded in his brain.

Is it really because of the injury to the spirit body and hallucination?Klein frowned.

He originally wanted to ask for a request to buy the pituitary and blood of the Thousand Face Hunter's brain at this party, but he was in such a situation and could only give up with caution.

Although the gathering organized by the old man of the Eye of Wisdom is not of high level and it is likely that he will not involve a more advanced monster like the Thousand Face Hunter, Klein believes that many members here have also attended other gatherings and may be able to access corresponding information and clues.

Uneasy, Klein attended the party as a bystander.

He just took off his robe, took off his mask, and left the room. The inexplicable intuition that everyone had to persecute him with all his belongings disappeared, and the strangeness disappeared!

This... Klein's pupils shrank slightly, confirming that the phenomenon just now was not caused by the injury of the spirit body, otherwise he would not be able to have both internal and external states.

He suspected that there was an invisible, insensitive, and extremely terrifying person and object in the living room where the party was held, so he stimulated himself, who had inspiration and intuition of the diviner and a dangerous premonition of the clown, but due to the other party's suppression or special features, this stimulation appeared in the form of too rich associations and did not alert himself.

Who will it be?

This is too terrible. The existence itself alone gave me a reaction similar to the sign of losing control... Klein remained silent and moved away from the old man's house, heading towards the nearest street.

Suddenly, he had a guess:

Nearby is the Brave Bar, and the resentful souls killed by me, Miss Sharon and Marichi, Steve and others are responsible for monitoring the surrounding area...

Their death will inevitably anger the high-sequence powers of the Rose School and turn their eyes here to the extraordinary people active near the Brave Bar…

That was him just now?

Fortunately, I used items such as biotoxin bottles and sun brooches tonight, and in order to avoid being divined, I left them on the gray fog... Otherwise, the result would be unimaginable... The magician who just completed an impossible performance would die here...

The world of the extraordinary is really dangerous...

…………

In the Cathedral of Holy Wind, Cardinal Essneck looked at the captain of the Punisher Team in front of him, and asked without any emotion:

Who is Kaping?

Why does his villa have an underground prison?

The captain of the Punisher Team immediately replied:

A rich man, a rumored rich man related to multiple disappearances of girls, is suspected to be a human trafficker and is still in the slave trade privately.

That underground prison proved the rumor.

Why does a human trafficker get the protection of several extraordinary people?And the sequence is not low.Cardinal Sneck asked.

Your Excellency, this is to be investigated. We tried to find clues with extraordinary means, but all failed.The captain of the Punisher Team replied with some fear.

I've tried it, too.Cardinal Sneck did not blame him.

The senior executive of the Storm Church paused:

Continue to track down this matter, and find the ghost of Sequence 6 or Sequence 5.

When his subordinates left, Cardinal Sneck lifted up his pen and wrote down several objects in the record book that needed attention:

Kaping, population trade, tarot card ritual, strange but not too high-sequence ghosts, secret plots.

…………

Queens, inside the luxurious villa of the Earl of Hall's home.

Audrey was waiting for the maid to cut food when she suddenly heard the father of Earl Hall, who was used to reading newspapers at breakfast, laughed:

Kapin is dead.

who is he?Audrey asked with her eyes wide open.

In fact, she was not curious about who Kaping was at all. She was simply a father who had obvious desire to communicate with her.

This is not only the daughter's specialty, but also the instinct of the mind reader.

A rich man who may be a human trafficker in private, he has a good relationship with some people, ha... Earl Hall chuckled, he was killed last night, there were obvious traces of judgment at the scene, and all newspapers called the murderer a thief, the thief "Black Emperor". Well, this is named after the code name of the ruler of the ancient Solomon Empire.

A thief?

The Black Emperor?

Black Emperor...Audrey instantly thought of the blasphemy card that currently belongs to Mr. Fool, which is the highest level item she has come into contact with so far.

She suddenly became interested in Kaping's murder:

It sounds interesting. Although this is illegal, I still want to say, that thief was doing it so beautifully. Well, Dad, what about the process?

The police and the corresponding departments of the church did not disclose specific details, and I had not met them yet. The newspaper described it as follows: The thief was wearing black armor, a pitch-black crown, and a cloak of the same color behind him. He entered Kaping's villa and not only stole all the property in the safe, but also stole Kaping and his evil subordinates' lives, and rescued the girls locked in the dungeon. He sprinkled tarot cards on Kaping's body, and the most conspicuous ones were the two on his face, one was "judgment" and the other was "emperor".Earl Hall described with a newspaper and smiled.

Tarot cards... Judgment cards and Emperor cards... Audrey's eyes suddenly shine.
