This is Adele's favorite thing to add to her medicine - although most of the time it has no effect and is just a personal taste preference.

The sound of glass falling to the ground attracted Charles' attention.

She walked straight to the room where the noise came from. The door was not closed, but half-open. Charles raised his hand and knocked gently on the door.

Tuk-tuk-tuk——

Perhaps because he used a little too much force, the wooden door was pushed open a little, and Charles saw Adele sitting inside, nervously pointing a scalpel at herself.

"You... uh? Um..."

Adele was about to angrily demand who the other person was and why he broke into her house, but when she saw Charles's appearance, her originally high aura suddenly weakened, and she forgot what she was going to do in the first place.

Is this the influence of [Charm]?

It can make a superhuman let go of their hostility towards you the moment they meet, and its practicality ranks among the top three in Charles's skill list.

"Don't be nervous, Miss Adele."

Ciel smiled and said, "My name is Ciel. I'm a friend of High Priest Julis. After hearing her recommendation, I came to you for help."

"oh oh……"

Adele put down the scalpel in her hand in a daze, and quickly stood up and brought a stool. "I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."

She didn't even have any doubts and instantly believed what Charles said.

Only a few people knew about her relationship with Julis, and they could accurately say that Julis was the high priestess. In Adele's heart, she was basically a trustworthy person.

After Charles was seated, Adele sat down and looked at him curiously and asked, "Excuse me, Miss Charles, what do you want to see me about?"

"Well, Professor Ashford told me that there's a graduate student under Sheron named Fred Hopkins. Do you know him?"

Looking at Adele who didn't recognize him, Charles felt a little bit strange.

Fred Hopkins...

Familiar names popped out of Charles' mouth one after another. At this time, Adele no longer doubted the possibility that Charles was a bad person.

Adele nodded and said, "I know him... He's my senior."

"Oh."

Ciel nodded and continued to ask, "Do you know where he is now?"

"He should still be in the Redemption Society's research lab today. He plans to do research all night."

When she said this, Adele's expression was a little lonely.

Looking at Adele's expression, Charles probably guessed something.

Based on Adele's previous experiences, Sherren's students also bullied her a lot. Judging from Adele's expression, it was probably that one of her research was intercepted by Fred or Sherren.

Uh... isn't it just research on the pathogens that cause dehydration?

Charles had actually gone to look for Fred's residence just now, but came back empty-handed. In order to avoid further empty-handedness, he chose to look for Adele.

For some reason, Charles felt very confident in fooling Adele, as if she would believe whatever he said.

I don't know if it's because of me, or if Adele has a weak resistance to [Charm] and [The Art of Conversation].

"Thank you, Miss Adele."

Ciel stood up and said, "Then I won't bother you anymore."

"it is good……"

It was not until Charles left and closed the door that Adele, who was sitting there in a daze, blinked. She tilted her head, but couldn't think of anything suspicious about the other party, so she stood up and picked up the broken glass that had just fallen to the ground.

After obtaining Fred's exact location, Charles did not rush to find him directly.

The Level 2 "Plague Doctor" Xie Lun might also be present. Considering that Xie Lun might carry poison that could even infect the "Crown Guard", Charles is not % sure of victory.

But there is one place where Charles is 100% sure that he can kill them all, or gain a group of helpers and get the magic potion by the way.

Deton Manor.

Charles waved his hand in the rainy night and called a carriage.

……

At the gate of Deton Manor, two green-chip attendants holding black umbrellas looked towards the dark uphill passage not far away.

Almost at the same time, they felt an extremely terrifying aura, as if there was some terrifying creature hidden in the darkness that they could not look directly at. They quickly lowered their heads and half-knelt down.

In the darkness, Charles held a silver spiritual badge in his pocket in his right hand and walked slowly towards the gate of Deton Manor.

It is [Sardana Emblem]

As they passed the two green-chip waiters, Charles said directly: "Take me to see Kitty."

"Yes!"

A waiter suppressed his excitement and stood up first. He lowered his head and walked in front of Charles. He turned slightly sideways and said respectfully, "Please follow me..."

In the eyes of the two green chips, Charles, who possessed the emblem of Sardana, the emblem of the bishop of the Holy Advent sect, was a bishop who came to inspect. It was their honor to lead such a person to find the administrator.

Soon, led by the waiter, Charles passed through the garden and the gate and came to the magnificent lobby. However, Charles was a little surprised because she saw a familiar figure.

The figure seemed to have noticed her as well, and their eyes met.

"Ms. Russell, thank you for your continued support for Deton Manor. We will..."

Kitty, who was leading Avina, seemed to sense something and was slightly stunned, a drop of cold sweat seeping from her forehead.

"We will continue to work hard to bring better services and items to Miss Russell... Please be careful on your journey..."

Kitty stopped and did not move forward, but just stood there with her head down.

Avina and Charles looked at each other but did not stop. Only after passing by Charles did they nod slightly to each other and look away at the same time.

Nia, who was following behind Avina and helping her carry things, nudged Avina's shoulder with her elbow, urging her to walk a little faster. Avina didn't suspect anything and quickened her pace.

It wasn't until they reached the garden that Avina turned to look at Nia and asked, "What happened? Was there any danger just now?"

"No... I just had a feeling... that girl was very dangerous..."

Nia shook her head, but couldn't explain why.

"Do you feel it?"

Avina had a blank expression on her face. She looked back and saw Kitty talking with the girl with her head down. Avina said calmly, "Let's do it again tomorrow morning."

"it is good."

Nia didn't know what her eldest daughter was going to do, so she could only agree.

Avina withdrew her gaze.

Kitty must know the identity of that girl, so she can ask Kitty for her information.

Avina felt her mind was in a mess. She didn't know why she asked for the girl's information. She just felt that her heartbeat had never calmed down since she first met the mysterious girl.

While waiting for the carriage to arrive, Avina couldn't help but look back again, but the girl was no longer in the hall. Avina felt a little lost in her heart.

I don't know if I will ever see her again...

Maybe I should have been braver and said hello?

What Avina didn't know was that she would lose sleep all night because of not saying hello.

……

Deton Manor, Kitty's office.

"Your Majesty Bishop!"

Kitty suppressed her excitement and half-knelt in front of Charles' legs.

Just now, she had exchanged glances with the Bishop without realizing it. The fear that came from her heart and the familiar aura could not be fake... This must be the genuine bishop of the Holy Advent Sect!

I just don't know why this bishop came at this time... I'm about to make a big move...

Who cares!!!

"Your Excellency, please allow me to express my humble respects to you..."

As Kitty said this, she put her hands on the carpet and was about to lie down and lick the bishop's shoes.

At this moment, Charles, who had already had an advance warning in his heart, stepped back slightly and retracted his right foot. Then he raised his foot and stepped directly on Kitty's head, causing her face to hit the carpet directly.

This pervert almost got a kick out of it.

Ciel looked at Kitty, who was being stepped on by her, with disgust. She didn't want to waste any more time and said directly, "Bring a few people who are fit for fighting and follow me to the Redemption Meeting."

After saying that, Charles withdrew his foot, and Kitty slowly raised her head and looked at Charles.

At this time, Kitty's face was flushed, as if she felt something extremely exciting. Even the fear caused by looking directly at Charles was stimulating her spirit to become increasingly excited.

Fortunately, she still had some sense. Kitty quickly reacted, lowered her head, and said quickly: "My Lord... Bishop... The Redemption Society? I have people in the Redemption Society..."

"Oh, is Joy the one who pulls the strings?"

Ciel said coldly.

Listening to Charles' tone and the name of the pleasure club, Kitty's excitement just now disappeared in an instant, as if she had been poured with a basin of ice water in the middle of winter, and cold sweat broke out again.

"Happy...Happy party? I don't know...I..."

Kitty was sweating profusely at this time.

Kitty never thought that her plan was known clearly by the bishop in front of her, and the bishop even knew some secret information that Kitty didn't know.

If her contact with Sheron was really intentional for pleasure, then even if it succeeded, Kitty would definitely be implicated.

People at the party cause trouble, but there is never a real winner; it's just a matter of who loses more.

"Do not talk nonsense."

Charles' tone was even, "Bring your men, prepare the carriage, and go to the Redemption Society."

"Okay...Okay! I'll be right there!"

Kitty didn't dare to think about anything else at this moment. She immediately crawled to the door, opened it and ran out, leaving Charles alone in the office.

Charles walked slowly to the desk, half leaning against it, thinking about his previous encounter with Avina.

If Avina could be called upon for help, Nia would definitely take action. With Charles' assistance, arresting Fred would be a sure thing, and there would be no accidents.

It’s a pity that at this time in the past, Avina didn’t recognize him at all, and even Charles didn’t know how to convince Avina as quickly as possible to let her help him... Avina was still very vigilant.

Also, if Sherren could release the poison, Avina or Nia might also be attacked by the poison gas, which is something Charles doesn't want to see.

After weighing the pros and cons, Charles still did not choose to ask Avina for help.

To check for poison, let's go to Kitty.

After about seven or eight minutes, a white shadow flashed at the door of the office, and Kitty appeared at the door and knocked on the half-open door.

"Come in."

Charles spoke.

Kitty, panting, pushed open the door and said to Charles, "Your Excellency, the extraordinary people still in Deton Manor have gathered."

"it is good."

Ciel nodded slightly, then thought for a moment and said, "Is there a list of potions in the underground storage room? Let me see it."

"Okay, Lord Bishop."

Although Kitty didn't know what Charles was going to do, she quickly walked to the desk with her head down, bent down and pulled out a list of materials and items for today from the drawer.

"Please review it, Your Excellency."

Kitty held the form in both hands and handed it in Ciel's direction.

Ciel picked up the form and quickly read it.

"adventurer"……

"Blood Painter"...

"Ascetic"...

The Listener...

Apart from the "Butcher", "Killer", "Detective" and "Coroner" that have been archived, these are the only paths that the Charles has not saved yet in Deton Manor.
