Secret: The undead do not die in the fire

Chapter 161 How Do You Want Me to Cooperate?

May 12, morning.

Above the gray mist, in a palace that looks like a giant's residence.

Mr. Fool is listening to the new member Emlyn the Moon telling the history of the vampire race.

The more Emlyn spoke, the prouder he became, and his tone went from reserved and cautious to eloquent.

He looked at Klein with sharp eyes and said:

"Dear Mr. Fool,
Do you have time to listen to me tell you about the life story of the Blood Moon Queen and the glory that the blood race once possessed? It is a heavy book composed of pages of glorious chapters, and I can repeat every part of it. "

Just as Klein was about to answer, his expression suddenly changed. His eyes caught sight of a twinkling crimson star, and he immediately smiled and said,
"That's enough. I like equal exchange. I won't let you make statements without gaining anything. When there's a chance in the future, you can use the corresponding history to exchange for what you want from me."

"Okay." Emlyn felt a little lost for a moment. This was the first time he had the opportunity to tell other beings about the glory of the vampires.

After sending Emlyn away, Klein cast his gaze to the side and saw that the crimson star corresponding to Justice was constantly expanding and contracting, spreading spirituality towards it. The voice of Justice suddenly became clear:

"Dear Mr. Fool, I beg for your help. I would like to request a private communication with Mr. Lover!"

Klein thought to himself, "As expected," and guessed that something must have happened to Miss Justice. This was also the reason why he rejected Emlyn. Although he was not lacking in interest in that history, time did not allow him to listen to the other party's long speech here.

After listening to Justice's prayer, Klein directly passed Miss Justice's prayer to the flame corresponding to the ember. After that, he pulled the two figures above the gray fog.

"Mr. Yu... 'lover'."

Seeing the familiar grand hall, the mottled bronze table, and the two familiar figures, Audrey heaved a sigh of relief and even almost called out Ember's real name in front of The Fool—even though The Fool already knew it.

"It looks like Miss Justice is in a lot of trouble."

Klein secretly wondered in his heart, Miss Justice is a spectator channel, and also a Sequence 7 psychiatrist. Logically, she should have been able to remain calm even when faced with a catastrophe, and her previous performance also proved her excellence. But even Miss Justice couldn't control her emotions, and it was obvious that she was really anxious now.

Yu Jin asked in a soothing voice:
"Ms. Justice, what happened? Don't worry, take your time."

Audrey recovered a little, and sorted out what happened last night in her mind, and said:
"Mr. Lover, I discovered my father was hypnotized during dinner yesterday."

"Last night? Then why didn't you ask me for it until now?"

Klein was surprised and suspicious at first, but soon realized the crux of the matter—

Miss Justice realized that her father was hypnotized, which meant that her other family members and servants were also likely hypnotized. Even the person who hypnotized them was secretly watching her. If she rashly prayed to him at home, she would definitely be discovered by him. And Miss Justice couldn't even be sure if she herself had been hypnotized as well.

However, since Miss Justice had already come above the gray fog, it meant that she was not hypnotized. Otherwise, she should have realized that she had been hypnotized the moment she came above the gray fog, just like Little Sun's experience the previous two times.

Yu Jin was obviously also aware of this problem and asked directly:
"Who do you suspect?"

"The Royal Family!"

Audrey said without hesitation, "Only the royal family has the motivation and ability to do this!"

Yu Jin frowned: "Because of me?"

"Do not."

Audrey shook her head and said quickly, "It's because of my brother."

Yu Jin immediately thought of what Audrey had said before, that her second brother Alfred was dispatched by the royal family to carry out a secret operation. Earl Hall was worried that something might happen to him, so he secretly asked the Prime Minister to help investigate Alfred's transfer order.

The investigation would undoubtedly touch the nerves of the royal family. Audrey thought that the royal family would send someone to explain the whole story to Earl Hall, but she didn't expect that the royal family would actually send someone to hypnotize Earl Hall directly.

Of course, it is also possible that the royal family’s attempt to persuade Earl Hall failed, so they chose hypnosis.

Yu Jin hesitated for two seconds and said slowly:
"where are you now?"

Audrey whispered:

"At Lord Glint's house."

She ran away from home early this morning, saying she was angry with Earl Hall, to find Viscount Glint and attend the New Year's salon he organized. In order to guard against possible surveillance, she deliberately complained to her personal maid Anne that Earl Hall didn't care about her.

"I'm going to find you now."

Yu Jin nodded slightly, and his figure disappeared the next moment.

Klein's mouth twitched slightly. He resisted the urge to hold his forehead with his hands and waved his hand to send Miss Justice out of the gray fog. You took something from my house without saying hello to me, and now you don't even say hello to me when you leave? I'm the Fool! Can't you give me a little face?

……

In Queens Borough, in Viscount Glint's luxurious villa.

In a bathroom on the second floor, Audrey regained consciousness and at that moment, she heard a knock on the door.

"Who?"

"it's me."

Viscount Glint's concerned voice came from the other side of the door. "Are you okay, Audrey? Would you like a cup of Feynaport Saint-Dessin coffee? Or a cup of Queen's tea?"

"I am fine."

Audrey responded softly, walked to the door and gently opened it.

Outside the door squatted Susie, a golden retriever who was doing her duty, and beside her stood Viscount Glint. However, he did not look at Audrey at this moment, but looked at Yu Jin next to him with astonishment and disbelief. Because just now, the other party suddenly appeared beside him silently!
"call!"

Seeing the embers, Audrey felt relieved and said, "Glarint, could you please arrange a quiet room for us?"

"Ok, no problem!"

When Greylint heard Audrey's voice, he immediately reacted. He agreed without hesitation and asked excitedly, "Viscount Black, what extraordinary ability did you use just now? Teleport? Which method did you use? Can I learn it?!"

Audrey, who was originally feeling a little nervous, didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She sighed and said:
"Grelint, you have chosen the path of the Sleepless, haven't you?"

"Ok."

Grellint immediately became dejected and filled with regret. If he had known earlier, he should not have chosen the Sleepless One!
Although his thoughts were a little jumpy, Grellant was still very reliable and immediately arranged a room for Audrey. And the golden retriever Susie squatted at the door as always, loyally guarding the door for them.

“Ember, I…”

Audrey called out softly, but seemed to be hesitant to speak.

Yu Jin shook his head and interrupted her, saying, "There are five Beyonders in the villa. They are all Sequence 9 trained by Slytherin. There are no monitors."

Audrey heaved a sigh of relief when she heard Yu Jin say that she was not under surveillance. She then said with a smile:
"It's Grallint!"

Yu Jin thought seriously for two seconds and said in a deep voice:

"Then I'll ask him if he wants to change his name. I think Slytherin is a good name. Anyone with this name will definitely become a big shot in the future! Well, I suggest that he can raise another snake, preferably a supernatural creature, which will be more in line with his image."

Audrey rolled her eyes, but her mood was no longer so heavy. She couldn't help but burst out laughing when she heard Yu Jin's serious and teasing tone.

"how do you feel?"

"Much better, thank you."

The girl smiled gently, and the complex emotions that had accumulated before seemed to dissipate all at once, and she became a lot more relaxed.

Ember asked, "What are you going to do next?"

Audrey was silent for a moment and said softly:

"I want to check Hibbert's condition first."

If she was not hypnotized, then it was unlikely that her mother and Hibbert were hypnotized, and the only person affected should be Earl Hall. But it is better to be safe than sorry, so she had to confirm whether they were hypnotized before she could draw a conclusion.

The Earl and Countess Hall are busy preparing for the New Year and are likely to have interactions with the royal family, or even be under the royal family's surveillance. Therefore, it is best to start with Hibbert, who is not as important.

Yu Jin hesitated for two seconds and asked:

"Where is he now?"

Audrey regained her usual calmness and said quickly, "Hibbert is the chief secretary of the Air Pollution Investigation Committee. He has been handling related matters these days. It's easy to find him. However, we have to take a carriage."

"it is good."

Yu Jin nodded slightly.

Audrey was worried that Hibbert was being watched, and they would be discovered if they were teleported there. But if a noble lady who had been wronged went to her brother to cry, it would not arouse anyone's suspicion.

Of course, it was not possible for them to go to Hibbert right after Yu Jin arrived. So they waited until the afternoon, and after having lunch and afternoon tea, they said goodbye to Grellant, and left in a carriage with Grellant's slightly regretful farewell.
-
Above the gray fog, Mr. Fool personally performed a "blessing" for the new member Emlyn White. While removing the psychological suggestion that the other party did not exist, the vampire Moon rolled on the ground in pain under the purification of the "sunlight".

After dealing with this matter, Klein took off the yellow crystal pendant from his left wrist cuff and divined for his next plan.

"This afternoon is a good time to go to Red Rose Manor."

After reciting it silently seven times, he opened his eyes and saw that the pendulum was still there, not rotating.

Involving '0' level sealed objects or corresponding powerful people, the difficulty of divination is too high and it is impossible to get effective revelations?

Klein sighed as he roughly understood the reason. Then, he divined whether it would be appropriate to go to Red Rose Manor tomorrow afternoon, but failed again.

I have always said that divination is not omnipotent, and now this statement has been proven... I have to make my own decision... I must take this step, otherwise I will not be able to leave the stage without attracting attention and move behind the scenes... The sooner the better, I can't delay, otherwise things may be out of control... As his thoughts fluctuated, Klein made a decision.

He immediately returned to the real world, put on a double-breasted frock coat, a half-high silk hat, and walked out of No. 15 Minsk Street, his destination being Prince Edessak's Red Rose Manor.
-
West District, the building where the Air Pollution Investigation Committee is located.

On the road outside the building, a carriage stopped by the roadside. There was a clear aristocratic crest on the carriage, showing the nobility of its owner. Passersby stopped in their tracks, either actively or passively, not only because of the crest of the Hall family on the carriage, but also because of the girl who got off the carriage.

The girl had blonde hair and blue eyes, and was extremely beautiful. She wore a pair of white silk gloves and a pair of small and beautiful emerald earrings. Her temperament was pure and elegant, like an angel descending to earth.

At that moment, many men feel that they have fallen in love. However, soon, their passion, which has not yet begun, quickly extinguishes.

Because there was a young man accompanying the beautiful girl, the girl took the initiative to hand her soft little hand in white silk gloves to the man next to her, and he led her out of the car and entered the building together.

Not long after the two of them entered the building, a young man with short brown hair and formal attire came out in a hurry and said respectfully:
"Ms. Hall, my name is Ethan Henry. How can I help you?"

Audrey recognized him at first sight. This was one of Hibbert's secretaries. Yes, as the chief secretary of the Air Pollution Investigation Committee, Hibbert also had three personal secretaries to help him with some trivial matters. Among these three secretaries, Ethan was the most trusted one by Hibbert. Not only because of his outstanding ability, but also because he was a servant of the Hall family, and his father was the butler of Hibbert's manor in the suburbs.

Because of this, in addition to being Hibbert's secretary, Ethan is also one of the extraordinary people trained by Hibbert.

Audrey didn't hesitate and asked directly:

"Is Hibbert here?"

Ethan looked up at the ember beside Audrey, his expression was a little subtle, but he nodded slightly:

"The Lord is in his office upstairs. Please follow me."

Ethan knew Yu Jin, and also knew about his delicate relationship with Miss Audrey. And now Audrey gave people the impression of a willful young lady who brought her boyfriend to cause trouble for her brother.

But this was the Hall family's private matter, and as a secretary he naturally had no right to interfere.

"Bang bang bang!"

Ethan led the two of them all the way to an office on the second floor and knocked on the door.

"Come in."

Hibbert's response came from inside the house. Ethan respectfully stepped aside and watched the two men enter the house. Then he closed the door for them and stood guard at the door.

Hibbert, who was handling official business, raised his head and looked at Audrey and the other person who appeared in front of him, and asked in surprise:

"Audrey, what's going on?"

Audrey glanced at Yu Jin who was standing beside her, and seeing him nod slightly, she took a deep breath and said:
"Brother, I have something very serious to tell you!"

Hibbert immediately realized something and asked in a low voice:

"Is it about my father?"

"Ah."

Audrey nodded slightly, but she couldn't help but feel relieved in her heart. It seemed that Hibbert should be fine.

Hibbert glanced at the ember next to Audrey and said with a knowing look:

"No wonder you reacted so violently last night."

As soon as he finished speaking, Hibbert immediately said seriously, "Audrey, what is your plan? How do you need my cooperation?"
