Mystery: Starting from Meeting Amon

Chapter 253: Disagreement 1

Chapter 253 Disagreements
Although Klein's blessing came belatedly, Lewis still managed to avoid the army's interrogation. Perhaps it was the integration of the "Key of Light" that made his soul highly resistant.

Staying in the single cell, Lewis took a deep breath and leisurely tasted the freshly brewed coffee, waiting for someone to bail him out.

As a qualified butler, Walsh would go to the nobles or wealthy people he knew for help the moment he ran into trouble.

At 11 o'clock, Lewis's lawyer arrived, and with the help of his guarantor, Earl Hall, he was able to leave the police station and ride in Earl Hall's carriage.

"Thank you, Earl Hall." In the carriage, Lewis took off his hat and expressed his gratitude to Earl Hall.

Count Hall looked at Lewis with his sharp blue eyes and said softly, "It's just a trivial matter. You will encounter more troubles as long as you continue to try to introduce AC power into Backlund."

He thought it was a business dispute... Lewis did not point out Earl Hall's guess, but he couldn't help but sigh that many times, businessmen do need an interest group.

At least, when trouble arises, many people will try to lend you a helping hand for their own interests.

When they arrived at the Lewis family's mansion, the carriage stopped for a while. Lewis got out of the carriage and said goodbye to Earl Hall.

He felt a little nervous, as he was afraid that it would be difficult to fulfill what he had promised to Greylint.

Suddenly, he looked to the left and said:
"Shirley, please go to Tussock Bridge. An acquaintance of mine has asked me to meet you. Just don't do anything too extreme."

"Yes, Mr. Lewis."

The footsteps were getting farther and farther away. Lewis opened the pocket watch on his chest and took a look. Even if Shirley took the fastest subway, it would take half past twelve to get there. What's more, the subway had stopped running.

Lewis returned to his room and the butler brought him some hot milk. He added a few sugar cubes to the milk and prepared to have a good sleep.

“Wait, I was just interrogated by the military today, so I’m supposed to be in a bad state both physically and spiritually.

If I go to the West District now and visit that rich man, I think the military won't suspect me anymore."

Thinking of this, Lewis decided to hold a ceremony and asked Klein to borrow the Red Priest Card. With this card, he could use his spirit to get information. Even if he found that something was wrong, he could end the summoning and slip away instantly.

Resisting the urge to sleep, Lewis prepared for the sacrificial ceremony.

"Mr. Lewis."

Suddenly, Shirley's voice appeared outside the room, even though she had just left two hours ago.

Lewis opened the door, put Shirley into the room, and asked, "Have you seen Polly Ian?"

"Yes, I will complete whatever you expect." Shirley lifted her skirt, and her movements became more and more like those of an elegant woman.

Lewis did not ask about the date. After all, he was not such a gossipy person, and Shirley definitely did not come at this time to tell him about her feelings about the date.

"You have news for me?"

Shirley nodded and said, "Miss Triss wants to see you. She seems to be in a hurry and asks you to go to the place where we met last time tonight."

"I understand. I won't let her wait too long." Lewis put on a half-high silk hat expressionlessly. He turned off the gas lamp in the room and slipped out quietly.

After changing his face, Lewis went to the East District of Backlund, which is the slum area of ​​Backlund.

At this time, it was already the second half of the night, and even the Crimson Moon had traveled halfway. Dark clouds half-covered the moon, causing the clock tower to gradually sink into darkness. "Miss Triss, I think you already have the answer." Lewis looked ahead and said softly.

The bubble-like thing was punctured, and Triss appeared in front of Lewis. She asked coldly:
"Why are you fighting against the Witch Cult?"

Lewis took off his half-high silk hat and said coldly:
"I need a sealed object to find someone. The Witch Cult has the whereabouts of this item."

He still didn't dare to reveal more specific information. In order to prevent the plan from failing, the fewer people who knew about Sealed Artifact 0-08, the better.

In fact, he had not dared to call Mr. Azik back to Backlund until now. There was only one chance, and exposing him in advance would only lead to the failure of the operation.

Triss opened her mouth in surprise and said sarcastically, "You are a complete lunatic! Just to find someone, you want to go against the Witch Cult and snatch the Sealed Artifact from them."

"That person is very important to me." Lewis explained, then changed the subject and asked: "So, what's your answer? I believe you didn't come here to call me a 'lunatic'."

Triss smiled and said in a charming voice:

"I'm very interested in your proposal. Creating trouble for the Witch Church is such an interesting thing, why shouldn't I do it?"

She subconsciously placed her hand on her lower abdomen, where life is nurtured. It was obvious that Triss had realized the fact that she was pregnant.

"Very good, I need the movements of the Witch Sect, both in the past and in the future." Lewis was in a good mood. He tapped the ground with his cane, making a slight sound.

Triss recounted what she knew, including but not limited to her meeting Prince Edsak, who was madly infatuated with her.

Until, after the Backlund smog incident, the unfortunate Prince Edessak chose to commit suicide, she temporarily escaped the control of the "Witch of Despair" and looked for an opportunity for revenge in the dark.

Gently stroking her lower abdomen, Triss smiled and said:

"Sir, I don't think you understand how deep a woman's hatred is. I just want to destroy everything in the Witch Cult!"

No, you were once a man, you just became mentally distorted after falling in love with a man...

Lewis secretly complained about Triss, but on the surface he nodded repeatedly and said affirmatively:

"Revenge is indeed a very interesting activity! In the following actions, I will show my ability to not let you down. Not even the Witch of Despair can stop your revenge."

"I hope you can do it." Triss lowered her hand, caressing her lower abdomen, and asked, "What should I call you?"

Lewis saluted slightly and said seriously: "Leonardo! Leonardo DiCaprio."

“Okay, Mr. Leonardo, I will help you complete your plan.” Triss lifted her skirt, her figure disappeared in front of Lewis, and her footsteps gradually faded away.

"Ha, a woman who says one thing and thinks another!" Lewis chuckled and yawned. Two days of high-intensity work made even this extraordinary person tired.

Considering various reasons, Lewis did not take action tonight, but postponed the investigation of the rich man.

He really needed to rest and restore his spirituality tonight, but at the same time, he vaguely felt that it was not yet the moment for fate to guide him.
