Mystery: I Married the Queen of Mystery
#67 - Investigating the "leader"
Audrey had already imagined the scene of a righteous rogue, single-handedly breaking into Capim's evil lair.
At the same time, she couldn't help but wonder: Is that rogue a Blessed of Mr. Fool?
While eating breakfast, Earl Hall continued, "The rogue entered Capim's villa, not only stealing all the valuables in the safe, but also taking the lives of Capim and his criminal underlings, and rescuing the young women imprisoned in the dungeon.
"He scattered Tarot cards all over Capim's body, the most conspicuous being the 'Judgment' card and the 'Emperor' card on his face, and a 'Hermit' card lying separately on the ground."

Tarot cards!
Audrey's eyes suddenly lit up: I'm not very familiar with the "Judgment" card and the "Emperor" card, but I do know a gentleman codenamed "Hermit."
......
At the same time, Hugh saw the emergency meeting marker left by the Golden Masked Man.
Hugh immediately came to the agreed meeting place, a remote and intricate alley.
The Golden Masked Man was still wearing a black swallowtail coat, his light brown eyes scanning the top of Hugh's head: "I have a mission for you."
Hugh asked concisely: "Difficulty and reward?"
"The initial reward is 30 pounds. If you can get useful information, I can even directly give you an Extraordinary material corresponding to 'Sheriff'."
The generous reward made Hugh frown: "What mission?"
The man wearing the golden mask said: "You should know Capim, right?"
Hugh frowned even deeper: "Capim? That human trafficker?"
The Golden Masked Man nodded: "Yes."
"I refuse this mission. I hate him!" Hugh immediately refused.
"It's not working for Capim." The man smiled and said, "Because he's already dead."
Hugh was immediately a little dazed: "Dead?"
"Dead." The man affirmed: "Died in his own home, his body covered with Tarot cards, two on his face, one 'Judgment', one 'Emperor'. It is said that the 'Hermit' card was also very conspicuous."
Then he added: "By the way, please also pay attention to any incidents involving Tarot cards in recent years that have not been reported to the police department."
Hugh considered it slightly and said, "Okay, I accept this mission."
"There is also a long-term mission." The Golden Masked Man added: "As far as I know, you can participate in the Mysticism Research Society?"
Hugh immediately became vigilant: "Who did you hear that from?"
"Don't be so nervous, we have people in the Research Society." The other party briefly explained and then said: "This long-term mission is to monitor the 'Leader'.
"Each report on the general content of the gathering can earn you 5 pounds. If you know how he left the venue, I can apply for a 300-pound reward for you."
Currently, the members of Military Intelligence 9 in the Research Society have not yet figured this out.
Hugh hesitated for a moment before saying, "I'll think about it."
Then she asked, "Why investigate the 'Leader'? Since you already have people in the Research Society? Why do you still need me to monitor him?"
"Because the 'Leader' appeared at the scene of yesterday's incident, and he killed at least one of Capim's subordinates."
Hugh was very surprised. She didn't expect the "Leader" to be involved: I wonder what role he played in it?
Then she recalled Byron's description during the last gathering. At that time, the "Leader" promised to protect Byron's life.
Never would she have thought that killing Capim would protect Byron's safety!
The masked man continued: "As for your monitoring, it's an insurance.
"The 'Leader' is a very charismatic person. I'm afraid our people will conceal some key details."
Hugh thought for a moment before saying, "Sorry, I'm not willing to accept this mission."
To be honest, she admired the "Leader" a little for daring to attack Capim.
"It doesn't matter." The Golden Masked Man smiled: "As we agreed before, you have the right to choose the mission."
After bidding farewell to the masked man, Hugh bought a newspaper nearby and quickly returned to the rented house she shared with Forsi.
Forsi had just finalized the beginning of her new book and was in a good mood, preparing to reward herself with a cigarette when Hugh pushed open the door to the study.
Hugh stared at the unlit cigarette in the other person's hand: "Smoking is harmful to your health."
Forsi didn't argue, but asked, "Why are you back so early today?"
"Remember Capim we talked about a few days ago?"
"Of course I remember," Forsi replied. "Your friend Byron seems to be investigating this human trafficker."
Hugh scratched her coarse blonde hair: "He's dead."
"Byron? I knew it..."
No one mistake one first one content one look one look!
"Capim is dead!" Hugh corrected.
Forsi was slightly surprised at first before saying, "That villain finally got his due punishment."
Then she asked, "How did he die?"
"That person didn't describe it in detail, but I bought a newspaper on the way back. It said that he was killed by the 'Rogue' Black Emperor."
As she spoke, Hugh handed the newspaper to her friend.
"What Rogue?" Forsi didn't quite believe the contents of the newspaper, but when she saw the Tarot cards mentioned inside, she suddenly froze for a moment and immediately thought of the Tarot Club.
She thought to herself: Could it be done by one of our internal members? But there is no member codenamed "Emperor"... If it really is, this is the first time I have discovered traces of the Tarot Club in the real world.
Just as Forsi was starting to imagine things, Hugh added, "What surprised me was that the 'Leader' of the Mysticism Research Society was also involved."
"What?" Hugh's words immediately pulled Forsi back from the Tarot Club to reality.
Hugh said, "That masked man said that the 'Leader' also appeared at the scene and killed at least one of Capim's subordinates."
Forsi pointed to the newspaper: "Then what is the relationship between the 'Leader' and the Rogue?"
"I didn't ask." Because this should involve some more confidential information, if she asked, it would be difficult for Hugh to refuse the masked man's mission.
She said, "But I guess I'll definitely get the answer at the next gathering."
......
Odyss, wearing a mask, arrived at 199 Hairun Avenue, the place where the Mysticism Research Society was holding its meeting, in a "Mechanical Heart" carriage.
He retrieved the "Flame Arrow" from the waiter and told the two waiters that they would be paid double this week.
The two waiters, who were somewhat frightened and had been frowning, immediately smiled.
Odyss also asked one of the waiters to publish GG in the Backlund Post, informing the members of the Mysticism Research Society that a gathering would be held tomorrow.
Then, Odyss used the "Teleportation Array" in the basement to leave. Just as he came out of the spirit world, Odyss saw Bernadette sitting on a chair in the basement.
Upon seeing Odyss, she immediately asked, "Who is that so-called Rogue 'Black Emperor'?"
