The Mystery:The Witch and the Scourge

"You can choose to answer or not." Klein used the ability of "Joker" to make his tone seem quite relaxed:

"Another favorite of mine has arrived in Backlund. He wants to accomplish something, but it is not convenient for him to come forward."

To put it simply, he began to pay attention to the reactions of all the members of the "Tarot Society": "The Sun" was confused, "The Hanged Man" was extremely nervous, Miss "Justice" seemed a little guilty, and finally Louise seemed too calm.

.

After a brief pause, Klein issued the task:

"What he wants to accomplish is to assassinate the Ambassador of the Republic of Intis to the Kingdom of Loen, Becron Jean Madan."

"Assassinate the Ambassador of the Republic of Intis?" Audrey couldn't control herself and asked in shock.

This kind of behavior is likely to cause disputes between the two countries, and even lead to the outbreak of war, resulting in a lot of casualties among the people... As a noble lady who often hears and sees, she is no stranger to politics, and she expressed her doubts at the first time.

Louise, who was sitting on the left, saw the crux of Miss Justice's hesitation and said lightly:

"Whether a war will break out between two countries only depends on the top people leading the country. The life or death of an ambassador does not matter."

Hearing that Miss "Power" seemed to be interested in this matter, Alger kept silent for the time being. Derrick was even more curious about what kind of person this so-called "ambassador" was, and how he could attract Miss "Power"'s attention.

Audrey had always been more convinced of Louise. She was smart and quickly figured out the key. She looked at the top of the long bronze table with a little uneasiness:

"Mr. Fool, I can try to complete this task, but there is no guarantee that I will succeed."

"I have also been active in Backlund recently, so I can try to complete this task." Following Miss Justice's words, Louise almost repeated her answer.

Audrey turned her head sharply and looked at Miss Power next to her, her eyes slightly widened. She didn't expect that Louise would choose to take on this task, otherwise she wouldn't have spoken at all... and she even imitated me in speaking!

Louise did not stay in Tingen, but also came to Backlund... Klein's heart moved, and he maintained the same relaxed attitude as before and said:

"What do you want to be paid?"

Audrey turned her head slightly angrily and immediately replied: "The 'psychiatrist's' formula and the corresponding extraordinary materials." 2

"Well... we can discuss this after the mission is completed. If it fails, all costs will be borne by myself. I also owe your favored one a bounty."

Klein, shrouded in gray fog, was silent for two seconds, fully expressing his longing for Chillinges's bounty worth thousands of pounds, and then waited for Miss Power's reply with some trepidation.

"If you complete the task, I hope you can fulfill one of my requests." Louise said respectfully.

Request, what request? You won’t make a request that I can’t complete at all... Klein felt guilty and worried, but then he thought about it, if Ambassador Backlund’s problem is not solved, he, the “fool”, might

You are about to die again, so why worry about debts!

So, he nodded slightly and agreed:

"OK."

…………

No. 59 Egram Street, Louise opened the bedroom door.

"Is the carriage ready?" she asked.

"It's ready." The maid agreed, and then she made a suggestion with some hesitation: "Miss, Earl Hall is a well-known nobleman in Backlund. Isn't it inappropriate to pay such a hasty visit?"

Louise smiled mysteriously and said, "I have an appointment with Miss Audrey, so it's not a rash visit."

…………

Queens, inside the luxurious villa of Earl Hall.

Audrey was pacing back and forth in the bedroom, feeling a little complicated. She couldn't tell whether it was joy or worry, but "someone" gave her the answer.

"You seem very uneasy." Susie squatted in front of the mirror, wearing a red vest and a pair of gold-rimmed glasses hanging on the bridge of her nose, her eyes constantly moving with Audrey.

"Ah!" Audrey whispered in surprise: "Did I?"

At this moment, there was a knock on the door, causing one person and one dog to give up the conversation decisively.

From the previous footsteps and corresponding knocking rhythm, Audrey recognized that it was her personal maid Anne.

"Come in." She looked in the mirror, straightened her back and straightened her hair.

Annie came in holding a piece of paper and said with a smile:

"Miss, your telegram comes from the Southern Continent."

Southern Continent? Alfred? Audrey suddenly thought of her second brother, took the paper with joy, and stared at it carefully:

"We have found the colorful lizards you want, two in total, please wait to receive them."

The main ingredient of the "Mind Reader" potion, but I don't need it anymore... Audrey was stunned for a moment, blinked, and suddenly turned her head to look at Susie.

The big golden retriever dog remained in a squatting position with an innocent look on its face.

After this, the personal maid Anne, who stood still and did not leave, continued to report:

"Miss, there is one more thing. Miss Louise came to visit and said she has an appointment with you."

Sure enough, it came... Audrey breathed a sigh of relief for some reason and said: "Please ask her to wait in the reception room for a while, I will be there soon."

"Okay, miss." Anne bowed in agreement and quietly retreated.

After the bedroom door was closed, Audrey looked at Susie and said:

"One piece of good news and one thing that can't be said to be good or bad is that your Sequence 8 potion has been found, and Louise is here too."

Susie stood up, wagging her tail and making a "Wang" sound, as if to say:

"I think it's all good news."

The big golden retriever dog ran happily ahead, followed closely by Audrey, who came to his own reception room that was separate from Earl and Count Hall's wife. In just one afternoon, he met Lu for the second time.

Yi Si, but the person in front of me is not obscured by the gray fog, she is real and beautiful.

Just when Susie was about to jump up and pounce on Louise, she suddenly realized her identity as a "lady". She pressed the brakes at the extreme distance, drew two shallow straight lines on the carpet, and shook her head happily.

Lift the tail.

"So good!"

Louise knelt down and was slightly startled when she saw Susie's "detective" look. Then she picked up its furry neck and played with it affectionately for a while.

Standing in the corner of the reception room, the maid waiting to serve couldn't help but be a little surprised when she saw this. Although her lady's pet dog has a docile personality, for some unknown reason recently, she rarely wants to be approached by anyone other than Miss Audrey. She didn't expect this.

The seemingly strange woman was very fond of Susie.

Then, with a look on her face, she noticed that Miss Audrey turned sideways to her and ordered:

"You take Susie for a walk first."

The maid in a black and white maid uniform bowed and responded:

"Okay, miss."

Susie also heard this command, and looked back at Audrey, showing obvious doubts through the glass lens, and then looked at Louise, who patted its head and said softly:

"Audrey and I will talk about something and I'll come and play with you later."

When there were only two people left in the reception room, Louise quietly stared at Audrey, who seemed a little nervous in front of her, and suddenly smiled and said:

"Miss Justice, you are really brave!"
