Mystery: Higher-Dimensional Overlookers

Chapter 78 Professor Moriarty's Prom Invitation

"call……"

Klein sensitively took off the black coat he was wearing, and deftly climbed along the wall into the manor of the Aurora Society.This is not Klein's intention to avoid the Aurora Society's eyeliner, but a deliberate measure to prevent someone from following his direction.

Klein walked to his desk in twos and threes, and fumbled to light up the gas lamp.He touched his wallet, which was bulging because it was full of gold pounds, and couldn't help licking his lips.I saw Klein sitting down, while reaching out to count the gains from the extraordinary gathering of the old man "Eye of Wisdom" today:
The 350 pounds from the "Fat Apothecary"—the gold pounds that Klein exchanged for the potion ingredients he obtained from the Aurora Society's treasury this month.This is the remuneration Klein has accumulated. Since the Aurora Society's funds are also insufficient, Klein can only sell materials for a living with tears in his eyes.

At this party, the Extraordinary codenamed "Wild Dog" issued a mission to rescue his friend from the "Punisher", and Klein was helpless.However, under the commission of Gao Wei, Klein told "Wild Dog" the information that "someone may be interested in this commission".

It's just that Klein didn't know why the old man "Eye of Wisdom" suddenly became nervous when he was accepting the task...

Klein counted the banknotes in his hand over and over again, preparing to go back and find the auxiliary materials needed for several types of "faceless men" that are not in the Aurora Society.Klein's ears moved, and he heard a sound coming from the next room.

It seemed to be the sound made by a girl born with extraordinary characteristics that Lao Gao raised in his room before kicking the wall.For some reason, she seems to have a very bad temper today.

Thinking of the child brought back by Lao Gao before, Klein couldn't help but think of it—however, Gao Wei seriously told Klein about the problems of some people born with extraordinary characteristics. If he can't handle it well, Some signs of "out of control" often appear on their bodies, and they may even turn into monsters, hurting themselves and others.

And according to Klein's guess, the little girl with some black tissues that only extraordinary creatures have may have suffered some injuries, and she is burdened with some high-level curses on her body, otherwise she would not have become like this, and was beaten by the old High so much attention.

In fact, the uncontrolled mythical creature-forms of the Vessel of the Mother Goddess have the taint effect of the "Mother Tree of Desire".Fortunately, he can restrain his influence, otherwise Klein might lose control immediately after just one glance.

Just then, there was a knock on Klein's door.He took two quick steps and opened the door, looking at Gao Wei who was leaning in front of his door in formal attire.

Gao Wei was wearing a Fourth Epoch costume that had been modified by a designer to make it look more like a formal dress worn at a ball.There are also colorful gemstones dotted on this black and white intertwined asymmetric clothing, which makes the color matching very beautiful and even dreamy.

He also deliberately arranged his hair into a finely intertwined black and white, leaving only two strands of white hair above his forehead.He didn't wear the monocle that was carefully polished and specially decorated with gemstones today, but put it in his pocket.

Klein also noticed that the color of Gao Wei's eyes turned azure blue due to the effect of some Extraordinary item. Looking carefully, he could vaguely see layers upon layers of doors.

"Let's go, Klein." Gao Wei and Klein have always called each other by their current names outside, and only when there are only two of them, he will call Klein "Zhou Mingrui", and Klein directly shouts Wei's last name.

"Ok."

Klein nodded, and checked his belongings—today is the ball held by Miss Justice, and she invited the baron, Gao Wei, to the banquet.As a guest, Gao Wei can bring a companion to participate.

After discussing with Miss Justice, Gao Wei decided to bring Klein with him, which could pave the way for Audrey's commission to bring Professor Moriarty into the noble circle.

After boarding the carriage, the two chatted while looking at the passing street scene outside the window.Since it was a "Rose Bishop" from the Aurora Society who was in charge of driving, Gao Wei didn't talk too much about the past with Klein.The two were just chatting casually while killing the time in the car.

The reason why Mr. Z did not personally drive for the family members this time was because the new aristocrat "Mr. Heathcliff" was also invited by Earl Hall to attend this gathering—this was an event that spread almost all over the world. The banquet of the middle and small nobles in Loen, and the source of this incident was just a request from Audrey.

After knowing the idea of ​​his youngest daughter wanting to hold a banquet by himself, Earl Hall decided to hold a banquet after careful consideration to pave the way for his daughter and son's future development in the aristocratic circle.

Not only the middle and small nobles were invited, but several big nobles who knew Earl Hall in Backlund were also willing to spend some small money to show their favor.

After all, for these Loen nobles, decency is more important than anything else.

Amidst the tacit communication among the top executives of the Loen Kingdom, a grand ball was slowly kicked off under the night.

Backlund's factory was running day and night, and the ball in the manor was magnificent.The carriages drove towards the outside of Backlund accompanied by the steam that was still gushing out. Under the veil of night, the people of Gao Wei had a secret atmosphere; under the watchful eyes of the audience, this year's Backlund held The grandest ball in the world is about to begin.

The carriage was driving under the night, and the lights gathered to form a beautiful scenery.The Extraordinary of the three major churches also took action, preparing to protect these nobles who were at the core of Ruen Kingdom's rule.

There were too many people attending this banquet. Under the instruction of the king and Adam, this ball was transferred to the manor of Prince Edesak. When he got the news a few weeks ago, he had already A lot of workers were invited to transform the lawn into a gorgeously decorated open-air venue.

This kind of banquet also shows that the nature of this banquet is not serious, it is just an entertainment gathering of many nobles, in order to express the king's characterization of the gathering of nobles.

In the Extraordinary World, this banquet was driven by Adam. He found that there were too many wrong things recently, and he needed a chance to find out whether any unexpected changes had come to Backlund.Therefore, Adam suggested that George III arrange this banquet outside the city of Backlund.

But why can't it be said that arranging this banquet in the manor of Prince Edsac was not George III's way of compensating for the son he regarded as an abandoned son?

……

"Hello, old man."

Leonard, who came to secretly protect the nobles, was a little dumbfounded at the grand scene in front of him, and couldn't help asking Pallez in his mind:
"Is this really a banquet that can be held within a month?"

It's no wonder that the child is ignorant, because around Leonard, most Extraordinary people and even some minor nobles all showed ghost-like expressions.This scene was not even seen by some nobles who had never attended a banquet. After all, it was a banquet jointly organized by several great nobles, coupled with the king's instruction, it was naturally so grand that it was unbelievable.

Besides the Extraordinary who was in charge of protection, some important members of the church also came here to express their attitude towards this gathering.Archbishop Anthony of the Church of the Evernight had secretly speculated whether the royal family had any deep meaning after this gathering, but Ace Snake didn't think too much about it, just scanning his surroundings while drinking.

And the source of this banquet, Audrey Hall, who can barely be regarded as a little girl now, can't help but sigh with emotion when she sees such a grand banquet:
"The scale of this banquet is really huge..."

As a senior "mind reader", Audrey could probably figure out what her father wanted from this banquet from his father's expression.Wearing a carefully selected dress that could even be called a work of art, Audrey walked towards the center of the banquet.

No matter what the plan is behind it, from the obvious point of view, she is the protagonist of this banquet!

While walking, Audrey's eyes glanced at the scene around her.This banquet is divided into two areas, the banquet hall and the outdoor banquet venue.It is also divided into three floors outdoors, providing guests of different levels for dance parties and exchanges.And a large number of carriages can only be parked in the temporary stables.

In the banquet hall, there are mainly big nobles like Earl Hall or Prince Edsack. Nobles who belong to the age of "parents" will not go outside, but are skilled in the banquet hall. There is an exchange of interests.There are not many such opportunities, and they have to seize the opportunity to grab benefits for themselves.

And the most central part of the banquet venue outside is given to the younger generation of nobles with higher titles or official positions.

By analogy, the seats in the middle circle are for the little nobles, while the outermost floor is not planned to be set up, but Earl Hall considered that this banquet is nominally his daughter's. That's why seats for those elites are set up for this purpose.

In the center of the circle, there is a temporary, but extraordinarily gorgeous and beautiful dance floor.Couples of men and women are dancing and socializing inside.

And in the middle of these layers are "Nighthawks", "Punishers" or "Mechanical Heart" Beyonders.On the one hand, they maintained the safety of this place, and on the other hand, they separated some people to secretly ambush the surrounding area and inside Backlund, to see if they could wait and see if they could catch the murderer who committed the serial murders before.

Leonard stood a little idly in the middle of the ball, acting like a writer or poet.

For the outside banquet circle, these official Beyonders blend into the crowd to guard against possible gangsters or out-of-control Beyonders.Leonard carefully acted as a guest, eating the food on the plate with one hand, while keeping an eye on his surroundings.

"Old man, this snack tastes good."

Leonard glanced around while admiring from the bottom of his heart.Pallez smiled lightly: "This is not a grand banquet, I was still Solomon back then..."

"Ok?"

Leonard was about to listen to Pallez's words, but he suddenly noticed that Pallez let out a "huh" in surprise.Leonard was puzzled when he heard the voice, and asked:

"What's the matter, old man?"

He had never seen the old man attached to him make such a startled sound.

"Be careful, little guy." Pallez said to Leonard nervously: "It's too similar, too similar...Is He back?"

"What is so similar? Who is back?" Leonard was even more confused. He really felt the fear and tension from Pallez. You know, even the divine pollution of facing the "true creator" before Pallez's tone had never been so tense.

Infected by Pales, Leonard couldn't help becoming nervous.

And Pallez was nervous for a reason.

From his point of view, the young man in front of him is exactly the same in appearance and even temperament as Mr. "Men" back then.

However, at the end of the Fourth Epoch, Pales Zarathustra witnessed Mr. "Gate" being polluted by the Outer Gods during the promotion ceremony, and expelled from this world by the Evernight Goddess and the Lord of Storms !He shouldn't have come back. When he came back, it proved that the power of the Outer Gods had penetrated into this world!
Pallez also thought about whether this could be a descendant of the "Abraham family", but how could anyone imitate the temperament of Mr. "Gate"?

Without so many imprints of starry sky in his eyes, it is impossible for him to have the temperament of Mr. "Men"!

At this moment, Gao Wei suddenly turned around as if he had noticed the gaze, and looked at Leonard who was staring at him.Layers upon layers of doors vaguely appeared in his eyes, as mysterious and weird as the keys to the mysterious world.

Gao Wei showed a smile, and walked towards Leonard while Klein was leaving to chat with other relevant personnel in the education and newspaper industries.He wants to take this opportunity to strengthen the memory of Mr. "Gate" for those who are familiar with Mr. "Gate", and master the "Gate" approach as soon as possible!

"haven't seen you for a long time."

"Bethel" said to Leonard who was possessed by Pales with a smile on his face.

However, Leonard looked at Gao Wei in a daze. Looking at Gao Wei in front of him, he felt that the person in front of him looked a little familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere before, but he seemed to have never seen him before.

His brain twitched: "Are you...?"

"Well...not talking to you." Gao Wei politely ignored Leonard, with a strong aggressive tone, and said to Pales in front of him: "Aren't you coming to see me?"

After all, he also took out a monocle from his pocket and put it on his right eye:
"Or, do you want to see 'me' more?"
