Chapter 33: Uneasy agitation
Cesima soon left Blackthorn Security Company again.
That injury seemed to be a signal, and he had to get busy afterwards - Mr. A changed his policy for some unknown reason, and he began to hunt the official extraordinary team.
After Mr. A stopped trying to avoid the official extraordinary, the official extraordinary team of three people was not Mr. A's enemy at all.
But the official extraordinary couldn't help going out - there were always extraordinary events to deal with, and even if there were none, other members of the Aurora Club would create extraordinary events.
The influx of low-level Aurora Club members effectively contained the official extraordinary. After all, the lunatics who could be mass-produced as consumables in the Aurora Club had a significantly different value from the carefully selected official extraordinary. Mr. A could not care about the life and death of those lunatics, but the three major churches could not care about the life and death of the low-level extraordinary.
If Alice was a little older and had more social experience, she might realize that the behavior of Mr. A and the Aurora Club was leading things in a rather dangerous direction - insufficient police force.
When all the official extraordinary people are busy and tense because of their crazy behavior, the real danger will come.
But unfortunately, the busy official extraordinary people have no energy to think deeply about all this, and the only leisurely Alice has no experience in this. She can only feel the increasingly obvious and difficult to ignore uneasiness as the unknown danger approaches step by step.
Troubled by this uneasiness and boredom of not being able to go out, Alice anxiously welcomes the next Monday.
"Good afternoon, Mr. Fool! Good afternoon, Mr. Hanged Man! Good afternoon, Mr. Sun! Good afternoon, Miss Fate!"
Audrey's usual cheerful and cheerful voice soothed Alice's uneasiness a little. She smiled: "Good afternoon, Miss Justice."
As an "audience", Audrey certainly ignored Alice's emotional abnormality: "Miss Fate, you look unhappy. Is it because of the evil god's offspring?"
"No," Alice leaned back in her chair and calmed down before answering the question. "My spirituality may be Wanted to warn me of something, but I couldn't figure out what it was... It was a terrible experience, like someone holding a loud speaker and yelling in your head, you tried hard to hear what he was yelling, but you couldn't hear anything clearly. "
This vivid metaphor made Audrey understand Alice's troubles at once, and she showed some sympathy considerately: "I think it must be very uncomfortable."
Alice smiled weakly, and then showed an attitude that she didn't want to talk now - emptying her mind and ignoring people, which was her most common attitude this week, because she couldn't make herself very busy.
Audrey considerately stopped asking, she looked at Klein who was sitting at the head, and after getting the consent, she said: "Dear Mr. Fool, I wonder if your followers have received the compensation of 300 gold pounds?"
Alice... Unfortunately, Alice didn't even have the energy to complain now. She just wanted time to pass quickly, and it would be best if she could jump to the end of the matter in a flash.
As one of the insiders of the matter, Klein, who had tried to have Alice divine above the gray fog and helped Alice divine above the gray fog to no avail, had no way to deal with it.
So, after repeatedly checking the money in his account, Klein replied indifferently in the tone of Mr. Fool: "I didn't pay attention to this matter, but since my followers didn't ask for additional help, it should have been received."
"That's great!" Audrey was relieved, and her tone of voice became a little more cheerful, "Mr. 'Hanged Man', there is progress in the matter of Qilingos."
Alger sat up straight and stopped trying to find out the cause of Alice's condition - Alice didn't even ask about the situation of the "monster" Beyonder.
Alger asked in a voice that could not hide his joy: "Where is he?"
"Unfortunately, as soon as we found his trace, he noticed our investigation and killed the relevant personnel." Audrey described the incident in detail and described the subsequent investigation ideas.
Alger nodded slightly, indicating that he would pay attention, and then turned to look at Klein: "Dear Mr. Fool, if we find out the true purpose of Qilingos and the very important and magical item he is trying to obtain, please allow me to recite your name and tell you with a ritual."
"Okay." Mr. Fool nodded slightly, accepting Alger's last effort.
So Alger quietly breathed a sigh of relief, lowered his head, and humbly responded: "Please allow me to praise you in advance for listening."
Then, Alger looked at Alice: "Miss'Destiny', the Beyonder from the 'Monster' path plans to stay in Pritz Harbor for a while, waiting for a 'destined encounter'."
After being called, Alice had to pull her empty thoughts back to listen to what Alger said, and then she heard Alger's deliberately heavy tone.
"Destined encounter?" Alice repeated this sentence with a strange look on her face, which sounded like something that would appear in some vulgar plot.
"These are his original words." Alger replied.
"..." Alice frowned, but she chose to continue asking, "Then, let me assume that if I want to find him, what should I do?"
"... He said that all encounters are inevitable by fate." Alger repeated in an incomprehensible tone.
"..." Alice pinched her brows with a headache, and she suddenly felt that she understood Angelica's feelings when she saw her tossing a coin.
"Anyway, thank you for your help, Mr. 'Hanged Man', this can offset part of the debt." Alice took a deep breath. Although she couldn't get any clues through the so-called "fateful encounter", at least she was sure that this person was in Pritz Harbor - although it was still useless to her.
Alger agreed to this matter without hesitation, and then said to Klein: "Mr. Fool, I will soon get a batch of Emperor Roselle's diaries. I believe that I can present them to you next time, or at the next gathering."
Klein nodded and responded with a slightly happy tone: "Very good."
... But what should he use to pay the Hanged Man? Alice turned her attention back to the party, and could not help but feel a little confused by Klein's behavior.
I want... recommendation tickets... and... monthly tickets...
