Mystery: Start with the Reader

"Tamara..." Abner was shocked when he heard the name. Unlike Abraham, who has declined, although Tamara does not appear much in the original novels, all signs indicate that this family still retains an ancestral high rank. Extraordinary characteristics.

　　 "Is there anything special about this name?" Xiu's mystical knowledge is still insufficient, and he has a little knowledge of the history of the Quaternary, even if Abner often popularizes her.

After hearing the words, Abner replied, considering the words, “The Tamara family is a family of angels who supported the Blood Emperor in the Battle of the Four Emperors. This family originally had an'arbitrator' approach, and later married with the Abraham family. I also got the potion formula for the'apprentice' path from them. And the Gnostics we have encountered, there should also be some members of the Tamara family."

　　 Xiu didn’t expect the Tamara family to come from such a big background. For a while, he was a little stunned. After a long while, he sighed, “I have contact with the Witch Sect again...

　　 Abner also felt that the incident he encountered always encountered witches was a bit strange. Could it be that he chose the "tower" card in the Tarot Club, which represented destruction and restart, so he always encountered witches and hunters and failed?

However, after thinking about chaos, Abner was relieved and said: "It may not be the sect of the witches... As far as I know, the Tamara family has long been divided, and the'arbitrator' faction and the'apprentice' faction are opposed to each other. . If the lady who saved you is really a member of the Tamara family, then judging from her act of giving you the'interrogator' formula, she should be the'arbitrator'."

　　 Although Abner can't remember the plot related to the outside god, he still remembers the relevant information about the Tamara family.

　　 "Then... Is this the end of this incident?" Quit thinking about it, and asked expectantly. Neither Gu Long nor that powerful lady is the existence she should provoke. Although Hugh was a bit reckless, he didn't want to get involved in such a high-end layout at all.

　　 "Since you have delivered Gu Long's'things', it should be over..." Abner comforted her again, but his tone was a little unconfident. At the same time, he secretly decided in his heart that next time the Tarot will forge a few more pages of Roselle's diary to give to the Fool, in exchange for his ‘favor’ to Xio.

After talking about Xiu, Abner talked about his own experience in the past few days. Except for the part involving the gods, he did not make any reservations. He told Xiu everything to let her know that the follow-up of the incident has been from the Mother Earth Church. The "Desolate" came to deal with it.

　　 "What happened to you is much easier than mine..." Hugh was relieved when he heard this.

　　 easy? That's not necessarily! Although I can't remember and there is no evidence, I think the blood color I saw during the "scene backtracking" should be more intense than the "white smoke".

　　 Abner was thinking about it, when he heard the opposite Xio speak a little embarrassedly:

　　 "Can you lend me the Solomon Empire gold coin in your hand for a few days?"

　　 "I...I want to change my breath too!"

　　……

　　 On Thursday morning, Abner was about to go out to the bridge area to do an "investigation", but was stopped by Detective Isinger.

　　 "Teacher, what's the matter with you?" Abner is a little strange. The teacher is helping the police station to find the fraudster these days. He often goes out early and returns late, so he is very busy.

　　Detective Isinger knocked his pipe and smiled and asked, "Tonight, there is an extraordinary party at the Brave Bar. Would you like to come?"

　　 Yes, after leaving for more than a month, I almost forgot about the teacher organizing an extraordinary party.

　　 Abner suddenly, then thought of the "heart of the tree of the elders" that has not been found so far, he moved in his heart and nodded and said, "Teacher, I will go tonight."

Detective Isinger seemed to see through his mind. After smoking a mouthful of cigarettes, he smiled nonchalantly: "If you just want to try your luck at the party and buy the'Tree Heart of the Elder's Tree', then you don't need to go. ."

　　 "Is the meeting specifications not enough?" Abner thought for a while, and found that most of the transactions organized by the teacher only involved low-sequence items. In rare cases, medium-sequence items would flow out.

"That's only one aspect. The most important thing is that your teacher I am also asking for the'Tree Heart of the Elder Tree'..." Detective Isengard glanced at his student. This kind of material involving promotion, if it is true He will not give way to the appearance of.

　　 Abner was speechless. Before he set off to Damir Island, he informed the teacher of one of the main talents of the "polymath" he had analyzed. He originally thought he could easily get it with the teacher's contacts. Even if I can't buy it, I will find a way to find a teacher.

　　 It is a pity that his mind is only his mind. Since this road is not working, he feels that he really has to find a way to get in touch with the blood race. But don't worry too much, his "Knowledge Keeper" rules for acting have not been sorted out yet.

　　 "So, do you want to come to the party?" Detective Isinger asked again.

　　 Abner thought for a while, and felt that even if he couldn't buy the materials, he would sell some charms he made in his spare time. It would be good to return the funds, so he still said to Isinger detectively: "I'm going to participate, teacher."

　　 After getting the answer, Detective Isinger did not delay any more, and hurried out to the police station.

　　 On the other side, Abner returned to his room and just packed his belongings and was about to go out when he heard the door knock.

　　 Abner frowned, opened the door, and saw the male servant standing respectfully outside. Suddenly guessed his intentions, he asked, "Kenny, is there a client?"

　　 Kenny, the servant, nodded, and replied, "Here comes a gentleman who is about fifty years old, he is very well-dressed and looks like a servant of a great nobleman."

　　 Noble servant? Came to see the teacher?

　　 Although the teacher is not in the office, as the official student of Isinger's detective and already famous, since Abner is there, he has to receive him, otherwise he will appear very rude.

　　 Abner put down the sorted charms and other extraordinary items, combed in the mirror, and then led by Kenny to the living room.

What catches the eye is a gentleman with neatly combed light blonde hair. He is wearing a decent deacon’s attire, with a few wrinkles hidden at the corners of his eyes and mouth. It is not too obvious, his complexion is healthy, and his temperament is masculine. The type of hunting and even fighting against the enemy.

　　 Abner pretended to greet the other party enthusiastically, and learned that the other party's name was Ma Xi, and then went straight to the topic, asking: "Mr. Ma Xi, I wonder if you have any entrustment to find a teacher?"

Mr. Massi smiled formulaically, and said decently: "I heard that Detective Isinger is investigating a relatively serious criminal case. Time is very tight. The matter I want to entrust is not urgent, so I won't bother him... , Mr. Bryan, although you are young, you have a great reputation. I believe that you can handle my entrustment well."

　　 "You're overwhelmed..." Abner felt a little hairy in his heart when he was praised. He felt that this person might have come to him, and he didn't know what it was.

Seeing that Abner was still humble, without the arrogance of being young and ambitious, Mr. Marcy flashed a trace of satisfaction in his eyes, and finally said to the commission: "I would like to ask you to investigate Mr. Walter, the deacon and housekeeper of Viscount Conard. . Including his hobbies, range of friends, family situation and character behavior...Although it is very cumbersome, the real employer is willing to pay a commission fee of 100 pounds for this."

　　 Walter from Viscount Conard? This... Is this the housekeeper of the future rich man, Mr. Dawn, right? Why should you investigate him?

　　 A trace of surprise flashed in Abner's eyes, and he lowered his head and thought for a while, and gradually got a thought:

　　 I remember that Walter was in charge of taking care of the Viscount’s children at Viscount Connard's house~www.NovelMTL.com~ and met Prince Edsac during this process, and was appreciated by him...

　　 Is this the person around the prince who is afraid of being replaced in private investigation? Or was the butler in Viscount Conard’s family who had conflicts with Walter wanting to find out about the black material?

　　 calmly glanced at Mr. Massi in front of him, Abner preferred the former, after all, even the housekeeper of the Viscount would not be generous enough to pay 100 pounds if he wanted to check the black material.

　　 "Do you have any specific requirements for the results of the investigation?" Abner asked tentatively, in a very vague tone.

Ma Xi smiled sincerely when he heard the words, and said in a vague way: "You must be as detailed as possible, as truthful as possible, and as objective as possible. However, you can't just write the good side of the report, and consider the flaws. The Great Russell said, 'People will make mistakes.'"

　　 "I see." Abner nodded and decided to accept this order. In addition to 100 gold pounds is really a lot, he felt that it would not be a bad thing for Walter to stay away from Prince Edsac.

　　……

　　 At the same time, Xiu, who had just arrived in his own "prefecture", was stopped by a man in a black tuxedo outside a bar.

　　 The man wore a golden mask on his face, exposing his eyes, nostrils, mouth and cheeks, making it impossible to imagine his original appearance.

　　 The light brown eyes behind the golden mask turned, and the man smiled and said:

　　 "I guess you don't know why I am looking for you."

　　 His voice is deliberately dumb, but it is not extra special.

　　 To his surprise, Xio did not show any expression of surprise and alert. She raised her chest and looked back at the masked man without losing weight, and asked:

　　 "Military Intelligence Department Nine?"
