The Modern Age of the Mysterious

Chapter 63

The detectives of the Holy Court Bureau of Investigation left, leaving Sean alone in Daisy's office.

"Twenty years ago, all the members of the Judas Ring died?" Sean blinked, his thoughts flowed, "All members of an organization died at the same time, either they suffered the catastrophe of the annihilation of the sect, or they were killed by the Holy Court. All were arrested and sentenced to death...

"According to the current ban, the latter situation is more likely.

"That is to say, the Judas Ring should be an organization that cannot exist now..."

Sean recalled the badge that Aaliyah painted: "I'm sure this emblem is the emblem of the Ring of Judas - the scale that Aaliyah drew is exactly the same as the emblem of the Ring of Judas.

"If the truth is as Henry said, everyone in Judas Ring has been executed, then someone has done some illegal things in the name of Judas Ring.

"Of course, there is another possibility that the Holy Court failed to exterminate all the members of the Judah Ring Organization, and some of the remnants are secretly hiding, and they are still working in secret, intending to overthrow the Salvation Church!"

Sean thought about it, and suddenly found something: "Aaliyah said that the kidnappers were very careful not to let her find out their details. Someone accidentally let Arya see the medal, and it was quickly corrected after that. mistake……

"If the other party is using the name of Judas Ring, then there is no need to hide the object of his kidnapping!

"They are so taboo, so careful, so cautious, there is only one possibility - they are the remnants of the Judas ring!"

Sean opened his eyes and found Daisy standing in front of him with a worried expression: "Sean, your face is not very good..."

Sean showed a smile: "I'm so tired these days."

"Why did those people look for you just now? Is it because of Arya?"

"No, it's not. I was contributing to the newspaper, and there was a report that affected a big person. They came to find out about the situation."

"It doesn't affect you, does it?"

Sean led Daisy to sit on the sofa, intending to chat: "No - they thank me very much." Sean smiled, "The court still pays attention to discipline and public image."

Daisy looked relieved: "It's fine... Holy Father, I've been restless these past few days, and there's no news from you, I thought something happened to you!" She was wearing a The glove's hand was placed on the back of Sean's hand, "You know, I've never dared to say it. Aaliyah's thing is a little weird. I'm worried that you will be killed."

Daisy was implying that Aaliyah's affair involved some supernatural factors - in fact, after the photo incident, they had already reached such a consensus, but they never said it.

"Don't worry, I can handle it." Sean stared into Daisy's eyes. "But your detective friends should pay attention to safety. If you don't have the corresponding ability, don't go any further." Of course Sean hopes that the investigation will progress. , but he also doesn't want ordinary people without a background of explorers to be killed because of the investigation.

"My friends, who are also under Mr. Bill's staff, can handle this kind of thing."

Sean suddenly realized a fact: the detectives in New York City must have all been exposed to the knowledge of the mysterious world. Because in the cases they took over, there must be evil elements.

Daisy took out a cigarette from the cigarette case on the table and put it on the ivory rod, just about to pick up the lighter...

Ding, clap!

Like a gentleman who has been smoking for many years, Sean skillfully lit his lighter and placed the flame in front of Daisy.

Daisy looked at Sean with a little surprise - the Sean she remembered would not have such an overly attentive behavior.

Sean had a wry smile on his face.

In the bright light of the fire, Daisy looked into Sean's eyes and was a little lost.

The dark and deep eyes are like the night sky. There are two lights in the night sky, like dotted with the moon...

Suddenly realizing that her movements were stagnant, Daisy quickly caught fire and smoked a cigarette. In order to ease the embarrassment, she looked at the detailed "Joshua Passion Picture" on the steel lighter and said, "Very beautiful lighter."

"A gift from a friend, it can ward off evil spirits." With a click, Sean turned off the slightly hot lighter, and put it back into the inner pocket of his coat somewhat like stuffing a naughty puppy back into a cage.

In order to speed up the investigation and remind Bill's detectives to pay attention to safety, Sean informed Daisy about the situation of the "Judas Ring", and instructed: "Don't spread the word, talking about this organization may be severely investigated by the Holy Court. .

"Also, it's very dangerous if this organization targets you. So be careful when you tell it."

After being silent for a while, Daisy's eyes flickered: "Sean, the look in your eyes just now reminded me of someone - oh, I started to recall the past again, you definitely don't want to hear it..."

"No, no, I'd love to." Sean noticed that Daisy had always been troubled, and he was also curious.

Daisy took a puff of cigarette, squinted her eyes and said slowly: "His name is Peter Rich..."

"He also has a pair of dark eyes that are as deep as the night sky, and he is also smart, keen and...with a very strong will and determination...

Sean knew that the strength of the soul would be reflected in the eyes. Ordinary people would think that the eyes of the explorer were particularly deep or bright. "This means that Peter Rich has a strong soul." Sean thought silently.

"...He is really similar to you - not in appearance, but in the way it feels."

Sean noticed that there was a smile on Daisy's mouth.

"Actually, everything I have now, everything I can barely maintain, is Peter's hard work."

"He is..." Sean had a guess.

Daisy blinked slowly: "Yes, he is my ex-husband."

"Peter and Bill were rivals at the beginning and had some unpleasant encounters, but they both admired each other very much, and later became good friends, which is why Bill and I still maintain a friendship.

"If Peter didn't have that kind of hobby, I'm sure he'd be a big man in the underworld of New York City by now--and I don't need a weak woman like me to run those... businesses."

A big confusion in Sean's heart was finally resolved. He had always felt that although Miss Daisy was mysterious and indifferent, there was something soft in her heart - as a single woman with a gang background, it was very contradictory.

"What hobbies does Peter have?"

"Gambling." Daisy narrowed her eyes, "He is not a gambler who lost his fortune because of gambling~www.NovelMTL.com~ He is a genius gambler.

"He is extremely smart and sees through almost all gambling games. Because he uses several casinos as banks for withdrawals, he is on the blacklist of many casinos..."

"He used the money he won from those casinos to open his own underground casino. That's why he stepped into the underground world - he's not a natural criminal, he just loves gambling."

Sean was very interesting to hear: "Listen to what you said, he has never lost a gamble and made a lot of money. If that's the case, it shouldn't be a bad habit."

Daisy smiled, with some black smiles: "You are right, if every gamble is guaranteed to win, then this is a legal occupation of robbing casinos, not a vice.

"Unfortunately, Peter doesn't want to win money." Daisy squeezed out half of the cigarettes in the ashtray.

"What does he want?"

"He wants that heart-beating feeling of a reversal victory after a desperate gamble.

"He once said that it was only at that moment that he knew the beauty of being alive.

"So, in pursuit of that feeling, no matter how much money he wins, he won't stop taking risks."

"And then?" Sean leaned forward unconsciously.

Daisy's eyes turned cold: "Because Peter expanded too fast, threatening some big people, we encountered a very troublesome situation. After going through a lot of dangers, they forced Peter to participate in a ridiculous gamble - someone wants to play with him Take your life."

Sean took a deep breath: "At this time, you should be careful, just ignore it."

Daisy seemed to be back in those days, with ecstatic eyes and a bleak smile on her face: "This is the part that surprised me the most and gave me a vague hunch - Peter agreed."
