As the crimson light flashed, Audrey returned to East Chester County's castle belonging to his family.

All the information in the second half of Tarot Club flashed through her mind one by one.

Mr. "Sun" expressed his gratitude to everyone, especially "Hanged Man", because he tentatively told the chief about his acquisition of the "Notary" Potion formula. Sure enough, he got the other party's approval, which meant that he could almost semi-publicly collect and exchange materials involving Tarot Club...

"Hermit" and "Magician" exchanged information about Mr. "Door" gibbering during the full moon or Blood Moon, which makes people on the verge of losing control. Unexpectedly, Fors has been suffering from such Affliction. Fortunately, he joined Tarot Club and with the help of Mr. Fool, everything got better...

"Moon" reiterated the wanted order of "Primordial Moon" believers. He has begun to intervene in various internal affairs of Sanguine. This is the change after joining Tarot Club...

Originally, Audrey should have been delighted with the changes in these members, but in the end, all that was left in her mind was the transaction between "The World" and "Hermit", and the "Lucky Scale" necklace that sold for tens of thousands of pounds.

This is not the point. I also bought a copy of Beyonder Characteristic that can provide Luck... The point is that he also asked for payment with part of the "gold coins", which is the same as the request of "Empress" Miss... Audrey frowned, trying to analyze the meaning and the possible connection between the two.

That's right, get in touch!

"Psychiatrist"'s excellent qualities allowed her to quickly recall all the abnormalities that happened every time she Tarot Club, such as the inadvertent glances between the two, the occasional words that seemed to cover each other, the similar whereabouts of the two, and even the woman who looked like "Empress" when "The World" first participated in Tarot Club a long time ago...

Coupled with the simultaneous demand for a large amount of gold coins, Audrey is now extremely sure that "Empress" and "The World" not only have a private connection in reality, but are even now together!

"The incident of Bayam last week, the disappearance of 'Admiral of Blood'... I have stayed in the country for too long and don't know anything. I have to find a way to get the latest newspaper about Maritime News... There should be their names on it. Even if it is a pseudonym, it can provide a lot of information.

"I didn't expect that Miss Irene has become Demigod. I haven't even had the chance to see her true face... Well, Audrey, don't be discouraged. You have almost finished digesting the Potion of 'Psychiatrist', and it will be Sequence 6 soon..."

She muttered and pushed open the door to the study room. The first thing she saw was Susie lying outside the door, boredly observing the ants in the corner.

It's also "Psychiatrist"...

Looking at Golden Retriever who was promoted to Sequence 7 from Beyonder Characteristic provided by "The World" two months ago, the sense of accomplishment in Audrey's heart disappeared instantly.

I, I will prepare the gold coins for "Empress" Miss first...

She walked past Susie dejectedly, walked through the corridor of the castle, and left quickly.

Looking at his owner's back, Susie tilted his head in confusion. It felt that Audrey's mood was much lower than when he entered the room half an hour ago, so he raised the dog's paw and subconsciously "comforted" it.

Soft, invisible waves spread from it, catching up with Audrey, causing her to pause, and then she went downstairs even more embarrassedly, almost as if she was running away.

I was actually "pacified" by a dog... She thought with some sadness and anger.

That night, Angel received 3,000 Loen Gold Coin from "Justice" Audrey.

Although this kind of gold coin, which is almost no longer in circulation on the market, is equivalent to 1 pound each, due to scarcity, the actual value is higher, especially when exchanging in large quantities, even banks may not be able to come up with so much immediately.

Earl Hall is indeed from a well-off family... He seems to be a major shareholder of many banks. These Gold Pound could be collected on the same day. Couldn't he have printed them himself?

Looking at the shiny golden coins that were transferred to the table in front of him through the "giving" ceremony, Angel felt that his eyes were about to turn into the same color.

"Compared with banknotes of the same value, the impact is much greater... No wonder Messenger Miss requires gold coins for payment, which not only has a higher premium, but also satisfies the collecting habit."

Angel muttered, instead of dispelling Wall of Spirituality, he directly recited the incantation to summon Reinette Tinekerr.

She is now ready to return all 3,000 gold coins to the other party, lest the more than 20 kilograms of gold stay with her for too long and give her some dangerous ideas.

Messenger Miss She was the great hero in that battle, how could she be blamed... Angel Try your best to Persuasion yourself.

The battle with "Rose School" took place last week. Although Queen Anne's Revenge finally relied on Queen Anne's Revenge to defeat the terrifying Black Giant Hand, according to her and Klein's subsequent review, Reinette also played a key role in it.

If she hadn't held back another attacker who was probably Sequence 3, she would have even had the energy to cooperate with "Sea King" to resist Black Giant Hand who projected part of his power to Bayam., let alone wait until Anne arrives, the moment Angel uses "The Travels of Grosell" to come to Klein, he will be kidnapped and taken away together, without any chance to fight back or escape.

While thinking, Wall of Spirituality became cold and dark. Reinette Tinekerr, holding two heads in each hand, appeared silently in front of Angel. The eight blood-red eyes immediately stared at the pile of gold coins stacked on the table.

"This is 3,000 gold coins, the first payment for assistance in the last battle."

Angel introduced.

She had carefully counted it twice beforehand to confirm that it was correct. She almost waited for the ritual candles to burn out before she felt confident calling the other party.

At the same time, she was also a little curious as to how Messenger Miss, who used to bite when sending letters, planned to take away so many gold coins.

Should I prepare a bag for her so that she can bite it and leave... As soon as Angel came up with this idea, he was surprised to find that a head in Reinette's hand opened its mouth, and a deep, dark breath surged from the pile of gold coins. All the gold coins were caught in it, and poured into the mouth of the head as if they were being sucked, and disappeared without a trace.

"Received..." "Left..." "Seven thousand pieces..."

The last one pursed his lips that had just eaten three thousand gold coins and did not join the conversation.

Looking at the desktop that had been cleared within a few seconds, Angel felt that her heart had also drifted away. She tried to calm down, nodded and said:

"I will raise money as soon as possible. If Gehrman calls you these days, I should also pay part of it."

She learned from the fact that Klein asked for a portion of gold coins when selling "Lucky Scale" that the other party was also preparing to repay the money, so she informed the messenger in advance.

The blond heads of Reinette nodded in unison, but did not leave immediately. Instead, they looked at Angel with their red eyes. After a moment, the four mouths spoke in turn:

"That..." "The puppet's..." "Characteristics..." "Is it still there?" "

Angel was stunned, and without hesitation, he took out the small box containing the "puppet" Beyonder Characteristic and sealed it with Wall of Spirituality, unsealed it and opened it towards the other party.

The palm-sized flesh and blood doll seemed to be alive, squirming in the box, as if it was about to crawl out at any time.

But under the gaze of Reinette, it quickly quieted down and curled up back to the depths of the box.

"Be careful Rose School..." "And Mother Tree of Desire..." "Make it Mystical Item..." "Or sell it to me..."

This is the first time I heard Messenger Miss say such a long thing... Does she mean that this Beyonder Characteristic is likely to be traced by Rose School, or even the "Mother Tree of Desire" they believe in? I almost sold it to other Tarot Club members today!

Angel felt a few drops of cold sweat break out on his back, and the box in his hand became a little heavy.

Is it possible that she was tricking me into getting this feature at a low price? But she also gave another plan, and if you want to embezzle the characteristics, you don't need to wait until now. You can take them away when the battle is over... Angel's brain worked quickly and he made a decision quickly.

"So, this 'puppet' Beyonder Characteristic..." She held out the hand that had unconsciously shrunk to her side, showing the features in the box, "Thirty thousand gold coins, selling it to you?" "

Instantly, the eight red eyes of the four blond heads looked at Angel.

"Ding bell, jingle bell——"

A soft and crisp ringtone woke Angel up. She subconsciously looked at the window covered by the curtains and found that the sun was shining brightly outside and it was already morning.

In her dream, she was chased and bitten by four blond heads of Reinette Tinekerr. No matter where she fled, she could not escape. She once thought that the gold coins she paid were fake, which made them so angry.

Fortunately, it was just a dream... She tidied her messy hair a little, came to the living room, approached the door and asked softly:

"Who is it?"

The person who rang the doorbell was the waiter in the hotel lobby. His answer surprised Angel:

A middle-aged man claimed to be looking for her and was waiting in the cafe on the first floor.

Light blond hair, brown eyes, wrinkles at the corners of the eyes, not too tall...

After listening to the completely unfamiliar description of the waiter, Angel found that he had no impression of this person at all.

Only Lola knows that I live here. Klein may be able to find it through divination... Could it be his new image? No, if he pretends to be an old man with many wrinkles, I will just...

Angel's mouth twitched, and then she remembered that the waiter outside the door was still waiting for a reply. She asked the waiter to tell the visitor to wait for a while. She did morning cleaning, put on a set of clothes for going out, adjusted the "hypocritical" ring, transformed herself into a new image with black hair, and put on Ladies' Wide-brimmed Hat with a black veil. Then she opened the door and was led down to the first floor by the waiter.

The moment he saw the waiting man, Angel confirmed that the man was not Klein's new identity, because the man who stood up and saluted politely was only about 1.75 meters tall, about 2 centimeters taller than Angel after promotion. Klein had expressed dissatisfaction with his height several times and was unlikely to maintain this height.

"Hello, what do you want from me?"

After ordering a cup of coffee, Angel sat down and asked.

Even through the veil, Angel's temperament and body curves that belonged to Demoness still made the other party show a look of surprise the moment he saw her. However, this man who was over 50 years old and had some gray hair on his temples quickly concealed his expression and replied seriously:

"Hello, Christine Teresa Miss. My name is Ribak. After being introduced by Ms. Lola Swann, I came to apply for the position of housekeeper."
