Regarding this action, which was like adjusting his collar to make it appear more solemn when approaching the altar, Angel just glanced quickly with his eyes, as if he didn't see anything. He passed by the middle-aged Gentlemen who was a punch higher than him, and returned to the seat in the first row.
The personal maid Aisha was waiting there, protecting her belongings. Her eyes were somewhat out of focus at the relief sculpture behind the altar and the huge Night Emblem in the center. When she saw her master coming back, she quickly looked away.
"Miss, shall we leave now?"
She asked Angel carefully.
The latter sat down and shook his head:
"Stay a little longer, Trier doesn't even have a Goddess church. I haven't listened to Goddess's grace for several years."
She perfected her "personality" in a timely manner and looked devoutly towards the altar, as if looking at the bishop who was about to start the next mass, but she also took in her eyes the Gentlemen who was in front of the offering box.
The banknotes held in the other party's hands contained a full 50 pounds, which made Angel raise his eyebrows. However, the bishop and Pastor, who had just expressed surprise at Angel's 20 pounds and showed friendly intentions, only made a brief expression, which made her confirm that this Gentlemen was not the first time to listen to a sermon, and it was not the first time that Gentlemen had made a large donation.
This guy is so extravagant...Angel took a deep breath and looked away.
After the tall Gentlemen left Prayer Hall with the servant, she turned sideways and said to her maid:
"Go to the donation box, put the 5 pounds in it, and ask Pastor by the way. Did the Gentlemen just come here last Sunday? If so, ask his name."
Last Sunday was the day when Klein just returned to Backlund. According to his style, he would definitely come to the church. The purpose was the same as Angel, to show his face in front of the bishop and to observe the entrance of the church to Chanis Gate below.
If you rashly ask Pastor for the names of other believers, the other party is likely to refuse to answer on the grounds of privacy. However, if you tell the whereabouts of that believer in advance, the other party will mistakenly think that the two have been in contact, and the resistance will be much weaker.
This is the skill of "Instigation"... Angel watched the maid Aisha, who had taken her 5 pounds, walk to the donation box, put the banknotes into the box with an obviously less decisive gesture, talked to Pastor for a few words, and returned to her side.
That Pastor's eyes kept tracking Aisha, until he found Angel, he nodded kindly.
It seems that the previous 20 pounds is not small...
"I asked Pastor, and he said that Gentlemen's name is Dwayne Dantès, and he didn't know the other information."
"That's enough, let's go."
Angel replied softly, stood up, and walked towards the door with Aisha.
"Dawn is very similar to Dunn. His new disguise seems to have borrowed part of the captain's image... Dantès is The protagonist's surname in Roselle's "early masterpiece" "Earl Returns", huh, the protagonist of the "The Count of Monte Cristo" he copied is an avenger. Could it be that Klein means..."
Analyzing silently in her mind, Angel walked past the last row of benches and glanced to the side inadvertently. Suddenly, she noticed that a man sitting in the corner was also looking at her. His windbreaker was folded and placed casually beside him. The hem of his white shirt was not tucked into the belt. Only the middle two buttons of his black vest were buttoned. His style was very casual.
Withdrawing his rude gaze, Leonard Mitchell's mind was still filled with that stunning purple color.
"If I hadn't known that she had passed away, I almost thought I was seeing an acquaintance... Oh, beautiful women are all similar, but each one has his or her own appearance..."
He subconsciously compiled two lines of poetry in his mind, but got stuck on the last adjective.
He simply gave up the struggle. When he saw that the woman had walked out of the door, he whispered:
"Old Man, is it confirmed this time?"
Immediately, an old and feeble voice that only he could hear came to his ears:
"That's him.
"Wait a moment and follow me out to have a look."
Leonard nodded very slightly, closed his eyes and prayed. After another group of believers passed by and left Prayer Hall, he picked up his windbreaker, stood up and followed the crowd out of the church to the square outside.
The young woman who impressed him so much before, with eyes that looked like a deceased teammate, had arrived at the edge of the square and was boarding a luxuriously decorated carriage. His real target today, the middle-aged Gentlemen, was sitting in a corner of the square, feeding pigeons on a chair, and looked at the woman as well.
It just so happens that he is attracted to someone else, so I can get closer... As soon as this thought came to Leonard's mind, that Gentlemen withdrew his sight and looked this way.
He immediately changed his purpose, his expression remained unchanged, his steps were regular, and he walked past the group of white pigeons that were not afraid of people at all and even dared to hit him. He left Church Square, hired a hired carriage, and returned to his home in 7 Pinster Street.
It wasn't until he closed the door and huddled on the sofa in the living room that Leonard, covered in cold sweat, regained his composure.
He opened his left palm, which he had been holding tightly, and inside was a crumpled piece of paper.
It was "sent" to him by a certain white pigeon in the square.
This was the real reason why he didn't dare to approach the other party at all, and could only pretend that nothing happened and leave quietly.
Swallowing, Leonard slowly opened the note, with two words written crookedly on it:
"Parasite."
"Zoroaster."
For a while, the only sound left in the living room was his faint breathing.
"Old Man," Leonard said after a long time, "Maybe he is your old friend."
A few days ago, he met Saint Samuel Cathedral by chance, Gentlemen, who had some ancient aura in his body and could be sensed by "Parasite" Old Man on his body. Oddly, because he was worried that the other party would be detrimental to Backlund, Leonard, who is a member of Nighthawks "Red Gloves", decided to investigate on his own first, and then decide whether to report it based on the situation.
Then, he encountered today's "Flying Pigeon Passing Letters" incident.
Is that Dwayne Dantès warning me?
He knew that I had "Parasite" in my body and that I was following him, so he threatened to make my secret public if I didn't stop investigating?
"No wonder you said in Backlund not to mess with people you shouldn't mess with out of curiosity." Seeing that Old Man did not speak, Leonard continued, "It seems that I should wait until your strength is almost restored, then I will investigate this person... Haha, it turns out you are from the Zoroast Family."
Although Leonard had only seen this family name in church books and had no in-depth understanding of it at all, this did not prevent him from being able to verbally surpass this "Parasite" for once.
He lit the spiritual fire, burned the note to ashes, and crushed the ashes into pieces. Then he returned to the study and stood next to a blackboard erected on the wall.
There were many different names written on it, some of which had been crossed out and some of which were highlighted and connected by various lines.
Among them, two names in large fonts are located in the center:
Sherlock Moriarty, Irene Watson.
In the corner of the blackboard, a new name is written, Dwayne Dantès.
After hesitating for a moment, Leonard picked up the pen, drew a horizontal line through the name, and put a question mark next to it.
Then, his eyes moved to another name also located in the corner of the blackboard:
Aaron Ceres.
There are some keywords written next to him, such as "surgeon", "'monster'", "Aurora Order attack", "'Justice' brand", etc.
Unlike other names that have been crossed out, he is connected to Sherlock and Irene at the same time. The keywords around him have been continuously added and are the most among all, making them extremely prominent.
After staring at the name for a long time, Leonard nodded heavily as if he had made a decision.
8 Burningham Road, Teresa home.
Due to the arrival of the fashion designer and tailor, Angel, whose travel plan was disrupted, had to return to the second floor to accept the designer's "inspection".
Except for Klein, Angel has never shown more than half of her skin in front of anyone, which made her look extremely uncomfortable when she stripped down to her underwear in front of a female designer.
Fortunately, with the help of the maid Aisha and the designer's endless words, she quickly got rid of the embarrassment and fell into another negative emotion.
"A completely bespoke dress costs over £100?"
——She wanted to question loudly, but this would quickly spread the rumor of "Miss Theresa is extremely stingy" throughout the street, so she could only mutter in her heart.
After measuring all the parts, Angel quickly got dressed amidst the admiration of the designer and maid. Just as he was thinking about whether to bargain with the designer who was said to be the best in Hillston Borough, he heard a gentle knock on the door.
"Mr. Ribak said that guests are visiting. They are Doctor Aaron Ceres and her wife, Ms. Vilma, whom you originally planned to visit. There are also Best Baronet."
After Angel finished tidying up his clothes, Aisha opened the door, listened to the butler's words outside the door, and conveyed them to her.
Dr. Aaron's family lives in 3 Burningham Road diagonally opposite Angel's house. After Angel's housekeeper paid a private visit and handed over her business card, she warmly invited her to visit. This was Angel's original schedule this afternoon.
Unexpectedly, after she was delayed because she wanted to customize clothes, the other party actually came to her door.
As for that Baronet, Angel has no impression, maybe they are just friends of the other party.
"Miss?"
Seeing her thinking silently, Aisha reminded her again.
It's not good to keep guests waiting... Angel made a decision. She asked the designer who had obtained the body data to leave, and she went to the small living room at the other end of the second floor.
The three guests were already seated in the living room, and the housekeeper Ribak was standing at the door waiting for Angel. When he saw her arrival, he walked up quickly and said:
"Dr. Aaron and his wife heard that you couldn't visit today, so they took the initiative to come to greet you. That Best Baronet was a guest at his home today, and maybe he talked about you in the chat, so he came with him."
I see... Angel felt enlightened, nodded, and said:
"Prepare two, no, three gifts, as an apology for my failure to visit on time. I heard that Dr. Aaron's wife is several months pregnant. Are there any etiquette taboos?"
Her knowledge of Noble Etiquette basically comes from a general overview of the manual, so she needs to ask her housekeeper for details from time to time.
"I asked Keira to prepare three gifts." Ribak is worthy of her annual salary of hundreds of pounds and has already arranged everything. "Mrs. Vilma has nothing taboo. You can bring the topic to her unborn child. She loves to talk about related topics."
"Also, she likes eating all kinds of ice cream recently."
