"3400 gold pounds."
"It's not bad. Prepare one for me and send it to Gray Lint's house."
"The Harley manager has already determined the share ratio in advance. 3400 is the Baron's net profit this month. The Harley manager said that it can increase by at least % next month."
This time, Hastur was really moved. He originally thought that his own interests were only about 2000 gold pounds, but he didn't expect there to be so much.
If this continues, I can earn back at least 50,000 gold pounds this year.
This is quite a huge amount of money.
"Keep 3000 gold pounds of it and keep the other 400 gold pounds for your family."
Hastur quickly put the wealth to good use, and Butler Neil left to deal with the matter.
"Now, it can be considered that I really have my own industry, although it is still far behind a bank tycoon like Earl Hall."
Hasta thought for a while and decided to continue investing the 3000 gold pounds. He planned to acquire some industries with more promising prospects in the future.
With his current financial resources, he can only acquire some small and micro enterprises, which is far from the threshold of industries such as steel and banking.
At night, it was the fifteenth full moon.
Forsi was lying on the bed, preparing to greet the full moon whispers from the fifteenth day.
With the previous experiences, she is not panic at all now.
The only thing he was more afraid of was that Hugh would learn his secret.
Although she believed that Xio would never tell others that she was a believer in the stars, if one more person knew about this kind of thing, it would be even more dangerous.
Especially now that the Backlund Extraordinaries are in danger.
Therefore, for the sake of Xio's safety, Forsi would take Xio out every time when the full moon came, and at the same time lock the doors and windows, leaving him alone in the room.
After waiting for about twenty minutes, the full moon murmured and the familiar pain came. Forsi felt that she would never forget it in this life.
She knelt down on the sheets in the standard posture of a devout believer, clasped her hands together and began to pray to the stars.
The main reason is that she doesn't know what the particularities of the faith of the stars are, such as what postures need to be used to pray, what Bibles need to be recited, what gestures should be used to represent the stars, etc.
When the ceiling above the head was marked with a bright starry sky, the starlight shrouded down, and the murmur from the full moon disappeared in an instant.
All that was left for Forsi was peace and tranquility, without any pain.
Whenever this happens, she will be very firm in her beliefs.
No matter how turbulent the current situation in Backlund is, she does not regret her belief in the stars.
Well, she felt like she was already a firm believer in the stars.
After the duration of the full moon's ravings passed, Forsi devoutly expressed his piety and gratitude to the stars.
At this time in the past, the stars would disperse and everything would return to calm.
But this time, Forsi saw the bright stars in the starry sky converging into pieces of text, which were ancient Hermes text.
"A fool who does not belong to this age;"
"The mysterious master above the gray fog;"
"The King of Yellow and Black who controls good luck."
“Every few days, look for opportunities to pray.”
Chapter 165 Forsi: Am I going to become an undercover agent?
Forsi stared at it several times, a little confused.
In this case, the stars should have given her an order to carry out.
This is normal. To accept the protection of the stars, you always need to do something for the stars.
But just now she claimed to be a firm believer in the stars, and in the blink of an eye, the stars were about to ask her to pray to another unknown mysterious existence.
Although she was not asked to offer her loyalty, it felt a bit strange, as if it was a plot in a novel where a new member who had just joined the organization accepted an organizational mission and went to another organization to work as an undercover agent.
This kind of plot is common between police stations and evil organizations. She has sometimes imagined similar plots. Unexpectedly, today, her dream has become a reality.
She seems to be starting an undercover career.
I don’t know what kind of big shot this Fool is, so worthy of the stars sending down oracles and sending his loyal followers to go undercover to collect intelligence.
"Follow the guidance of the stars."
Forsi memorized all the text content, indicating that he had accepted the mission. Only then did the words condensed by starlight disperse, and the starry sky also disappeared.
"Anyway, this is the first mission that Qunxing has given him. Letting him be an undercover agent is also out of his pious trust in himself."
Forsi muttered a few words to himself, firmly believing that he must investigate all the information about the Fool for the stars.
"What kind of mysterious master above the gray mist? It sounds like he is shady."
"Controlling good luck is a consistent disguise of the evil gods. They always like to use such descriptions to seduce poor people who are in urgent need of help."
"This fool should be a certain evil god. My undercover mission is a difficult and righteous one!"
Forsi encouraged herself and prepared to try to pray to the Fool tomorrow night. If there was anything unusual, she would report it to the stars in time.
"Well, I need to read some related books to familiarize myself with how to be a qualified undercover agent. If my identity is exposed, my first mission will be a failure."
Foer thought for a while before getting out of bed and opening the door.
Xio, who had been guarding not far from the door, complained dissatisfiedly: "Why does it take so long this time? I thought you had an accident."
"I just took this time to take a nap." Forsi explained casually.
Xio stared at Forsi for a while, his expression hesitant, and he wanted to ask something, but he stopped when he reached his mouth.
"What's wrong?" Forsi could see something was wrong with Xio.
Xiong thought for a while and decided to say what he had hidden for a long time, "Forsi, I know that you believe in a mysterious being who can provide you with shelter. I don't know if that mysterious being is related to the stars. I just hope that in the future Try to be careful yourself.”
"Well, I will be careful. If there is nothing important, I will not go out."
Forsi was a little surprised by Xio's keenness, but he also knew that the increasingly violent storm in Backlund recently made Xio start to make associations.
"You rarely go out." Xio smiled, feeling much more relaxed.
It was she who helped connect Fors and Hastur, although it was not clear exactly how.
She didn't know the specific situation, but what happened recently naturally made her think of this matter.
Counting carefully, the time before and after is not far apart.
Forsi also smiled and said: "You will need to buy the ingredients every day from now on. After all, I want to go out as little as possible."
"That's only a few steps away!"
"Even if it's just one step, it's still a step out."
"..."
Thinking that she would have to do the task of buying ingredients every day in the future, Xio's expression fell. She would have said nothing just now.
……
Letting Forsi join the Tarot Club was Hasta's decision after many thoughts.
He needed someone to observe Klein's latest movements on his behalf.
It's not necessarily to provide help to Klein, but to use the Tarot Society to understand where the world line is going, which will help him judge the current situation.
On the other hand, it can be regarded as an additional source of information, and it can also promote the improvement of Forsi's strength. There is no need to find additional opportunities for her.
When Forsi joins the Tarot Club, there will be two of her own informants in the Tarot Club.
Audrey and Forsi can already compete with Alger and Little Sun.
In the future, according to the relationship between Forsi and Xio, Xio can be regarded as half of his informant, and on Bernadette's side, the Star Admiral has always been loyal to Bernadette.
Calculating it this way, whether it is now or in the future, half of the Tarot Club is already my own.
Thinking of this, Hastur himself was stunned for a moment. Unknowingly, he had already occupied more than half of the Tarot Club's influence.
"The Gathering of Two and Five Boys is truly worthy of its name." Hasta couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
After checking the time, he took out a paper crane and prepared to chat with Will. Tomorrow, Will would go to the hospital for surgery.
He originally wanted to go to the hospital to see Will, but Will disagreed, saying that his arrival would cause changes in fate and have immeasurable consequences.
Hastur seriously suspected that this was an excuse that Will didn't want to see him.
……
Late night, West End.
"what!"
A scream disturbed the calm of the night.
When the two police officers arrived at the scene, the murderer had long disappeared, leaving only two mutilated and bloody bodies.
One of them is a noble or a baron, and the other should be the baron's steward or his bodyguard.
After the two police officers inspected the crime scene, they found that there seemed to be mysterious magic coming from the two corpses. They heard murmurs coming from unknown sources, touching their heartstrings and tempting the weakest parts of their hearts.
When the Nighthawks team patrolled and discovered what was going on here, the two police officers were squatting on the ground, leaning down, stretching out their hands to take out the internal organs of the two corpses and eating them with gusto.
Realizing that someone was coming, the two police officers looked back, licked the blood on their mouths, and then rushed toward the person with a grin.
In this case, the only choice is to kill to avoid further expansion of the harm.
This case was naturally transferred from the police station to the West District Nighthawks Squad.
As a new member, Klein did not attend tonight's patrol, but stayed in the office to familiarize himself with the business processes here.
Compared to the scattered management of Tingen Nighthawks, Backlund's Nighthawks are more
The Night Squad has very standardized management in all aspects and is not allowed to take on external missions without permission.
This time he lost a lot of extra income. Fortunately, the weekly salary here is very high. When he first arrived, he got 1.5 times the original weekly salary, and room and meal subsidies were also provided.
Basically, how much salary is paid that week is how much salary is left.
A high salary naturally means more work, longer working hours, and frequent tasks.
