Mystery: Mr. Witch and Ms. Hunter

Chapter 200 Mourning
So, after Miss Audrey finishes this operation, no matter what the attitude of the official Beyonders is, as long as I don't cause any big trouble and my actions have a certain legitimacy, the Kingdom and the official will protect the company?

Adele took the milk on the table and took a sip. She couldn't help but sigh in her heart that the Tarot Club's strong ability to take action was amazing.

Although Adele herself proposed this plan, if she had done it alone, the success rate would have been basically zero, and it would not have been as smooth as it is now.

After all, I am not a professional economist, and my understanding of politics is based on my intuition and the works of Emperor Russell. It is okay to provide an idea, but it is difficult to put it into practice...

Adele continued to read the newspaper while making excuses for herself.

It is not an easy task to create such a shipping company from scratch. Even though it now has endorsement, Queen Island Shipping and Minerals Co., Ltd. is just an empty shell and still needs Adele to operate it.

Adele turned to the next page of the newspaper and saw a familiar name there.

In the reprint section of the Jianhai News, an article reprinted from the Backlund Morning Post was being published to mourn the deceased. The name listed in the author column was Mike Joseph.

Fortunately, he is still alive...

Adele felt a little relieved at first, but then her mood became heavy again.

She still remembered that Michael had said that if possible, he hoped Altaïr could become the godfather of his son Sherlock Joseph, hoping that he could draw courage from the two godfathers that he did not have.

However, it seems that both of his child's godfathers are not lucky enough... If possible, Mr. Mike, you should consider changing your child's name.

Adele laughed at herself and then glanced over the eulogy.

"...For most people, December 12th was a nightmare day, and it was the same for me. However, it was in such a disaster that little Taneya was born."

"She is both lucky and unfortunate. She escaped the terrible disaster whose truth is still unknown while in her mother's body. However, what she lost in the disaster was no less than others."

"In the Backlund Fog, she lost her first godfather, Mr. Sherlock Moriarty;"

"She lost another godfather in this disaster, Sir Artair Brewster."

"Mr. Moriarty is the smartest detective I have ever met, and Mr. Brewster is the most righteous bodyguard I have ever met. However, in the face of such a disaster, they are as vulnerable as we are. So I named my child Tanya, which comes from the Hermetic word for 'lucky'. Perhaps this is what she really needs."

"People are gone, no matter how much we pray, it cannot be restored, so while mourning them, I also hope that you can be lucky enough to survive in this magical reality."

……

Adele didn't finish reading the article. She flipped the newspaper hastily but didn't read a single word.

After a long silence, she put down the newspaper, put her hand on her chest four times, and prayed softly.

"May the goddess be between the angels singing,"

“Pick them with sweet silence, and hold them in His gentle right hand.”

"'Goddess!' If He hears, He will definitely agree and show a pure smile to the dead:"

"'Come, rest, sleep, my children,'"

"'The only destination is peace!'"

Adele prayed in a low voice, and she recalled the grand mass during the war. In the war, he lost his relatives and wandered in the streets of Backlund in a daze, like a thin ghost.

Then he walked aimlessly to the mass venue and heard the voice of Archbishop Anthony.

He recalled the beautiful moments of the past, the scene of his family sitting around the dining table enjoying delicious food and chatting happily, he recalled the pain of seeing people around him being hurt and hearing about their passing that seemed to tear his soul apart, and he recalled the dark clouds and separations brought about by the war.

They sleep peacefully in this peaceful country, without any more worries, but those who survive must suffer torture day and night, and become haggard and withered.

This is a feeling that people whose lives are going smoothly will never understand. It is the sense of belonging and security brought by great existence.

At that time, Altaïr finished his prayer in silence, and absorbed the characteristics of an assassin in a sense of peace he had never experienced before. And now, he once again experienced the sense of peace brought by faith.

After adjusting her thoughts again, Adele turned to the last page of the newspaper.

The content of this page was relatively brief, just some trivial coastal news, such as fishermen's request to modify whaling restrictions was ignored again, and two gangs fought each other and both suffered losses. Adele just glanced at it casually and put the newspaper aside.

Compared to the gangs, Adele was more worried about the attitude of the local people of Feysac towards the Beyonders. From the performance of those people and the memories read in the dream, Adele found that the people here were extremely hostile to the Beyonders, not only including wild Beyonders like Adele, but even the radical ones hated the Beyonders of the church.

However, in the Iron Age alone, there were more than ten wars between the countries on the continent. There were also battles on a larger scale in the Fourth Age, but no battle had ever caused such an impact as the current one. Even more than a year after the war, the storm had not completely subsided.

Adele knew that a righteous god had fallen in this war, which had never happened before; but somehow, she felt that things were not that simple. The war seemed to be over, but it also seemed not to be over yet.

Vinata had finished washing the clothes and sat beside her, quietly waiting for her next move. In the firelight of the fireplace, she stared straight at Adele, as if asking her if she had any troubles.

After pondering for a long time, the statuesque Adele finally moved her lips.

"I'm fine... Pack up and rest today. We still have a lot of things to do tomorrow."

(What? You ask why I read so many chapters in the newspaper?...Okay, I admit that I was lazy QAQ. I was a little busy during the Chinese New Year. I also have to prepare for a new book recently. I originally finished some manuscripts for the new book a few days ago, but later I sent them out due to various problems. Now I will just put them together. The chapters in the past two days may be a little watery. I will resume after I finish this busy period. Finally, I wish everyone a happy new year in advance~)
