Secret: I can play two paths

Chapter 139 Good evening, Mr. Wheel of Fortune~
Star had thought that Audrey would appear at this venue, but he did not expect that Susie, the "dreamy dog", would also be brought to this dinner by her.

Can I just say she is worthy of being called Miss Justice?

Star withdrew his gaze in time, and just sighed that it was fortunate that he always carried the "incomprehensible" effect covered by "between reality and illusion".

Any observation from the mystical level will be blocked by this layer of protection.

If you can't see through yourself, you can even ignore the past as if you were seeing an ordinary person.

After all, he already knew how powerful this effect was through Miss Justice's reaction in the gray fog, so what was there to worry about?
As a guest, I was slightly surprised when I saw a dog at the party, which is understandable.

It couldn't be that he was like the wealthy man Klein had developed before, and was discovered by this big golden dog, right?
If this is seen as wrong, then Star has nothing to say.

Anyway, this is just a novelist alias that will be separated out when he becomes a Sequence 6 "Faceless Man".

It doesn’t matter if Miss Justice finds out.

After all, in Star's eyes, the kind-hearted Miss Justice would not do anything to him.

At most you could say to him as a prank, "Mr. Wheel of Fortune, I have discovered your identity"?
Star chuckled and stepped into the party, where he saw a lady going to the long table to get dessert.

She took a piece of dessert with her smoky fingertips and tasted it, with a lazy expression, as if she didn't want to stay at the party any longer.

But there is no way, because Star needs someone to help him integrate into this literary salon.
It is known that Ms. Fors Wall is suffering from the pain of "full moon whispering" and sometimes uses alcohol and cigarettes to numb herself.

If there was a chance, Star planned to take up some of her time to introduce the landmark and savior of the mysterious world, the great Mr. Fool.

A qualified follower should take the initiative to attract believers for his god...

Now, when Fors saw her neighbor next door, whose novels were more popular than hers and whose appearance was much more handsome, she paused with the dessert in her hand.

Should she help introduce Mr. Doyle, who had advised on Hugh's release, to some people?

What a hassle... Fors had no choice but to put away her indifferent attitude, put on a social expression, and greeted the people around her with Star.

Due to Star's flawless and impeccable appearance, no one would refuse his approach and the whole process was uneventful.

So, Star followed Fors around the spacious banquet hall, picking up a small cake with cream on it while chatting with others.

Although there are many high-end foods here, such as foie gras, fried dragon bone fish, baked lobster, etc. as seen in magazines.

But out of social courtesy, Star still knew what was important and had to finish these trivial matters first.

Hmm... I'll come back and eat these things later...

Just then, he met the host of the dinner, Viscount Glint.

Fors, who was standing next to him, saw that there seemed to be someone who could take over his task, and his eyes lit up.

She was prepared to chat with Viscount Glint for a few words and then quietly leave.

With some anticipation, Fors introduced Viscount Greylint:
"Mr. Viscount, this is Alan Doyle, the author of the Kamen Rider series of novels."

Since Fors helped review the manuscript of Star's second Kamen Rider Kuuga, Fors did not just say that Star was the author of a specific work.

At the same time, Fors was also wondering, this person didn't have much time to write all day, so where did the manuscript come from?
We can't say that this new novelist has an amazing writing speed and finished his work in a short time, right?
If she could use extraordinary abilities to cheat to achieve such hand speed, she would do the same.

And this new work is surprisingly good.

Maybe it’s an old draft?

However, thinking of the tragic ending described in the outline, Fors suddenly felt upset and didn't want to say anything.

Viscount Greylint did not notice the details in Fors's words, but just said in a friendly manner:
"Hello, Mr. Doyle."

Considering that there were other people around, Viscount Glint did not mention anything about mysticism, and chatted and laughed with Star about the stories he was serializing.

He also said that he would read every new story published by Star.

Star looked at the thin young man, Viscount Greylint, shook his head, and advised with a little regret:

"Well, I might be able to show some personal style in the new book. You should give it some thought, Mr. Viscount."

Viscount Glint was a little puzzled. Could there be any difference in Mr. Doyle's new book? As long as it was still a story about a knight punishing evil and promoting good, the content would be different at most, right?

He was about to tell Star that he was very brave, but Star calmly changed the subject and said:
"Mr. Viscount, could you please tell me about the guests here? I am also interested in some details about the banquet..."

"No problem." Under the influence of Star's eloquence, Viscount Greylint naturally stopped delving into the matter of Star's new book and instead took Star to deal with other people present.

As for becoming a Beyonder, I'll have to ask after we become familiar with each other...

As he was thinking about it, Star stopped with him.

Under the dazzling light, there was the figure of a young girl, who seemed to have gathered all the light in an instant.

Until Star gradually got used to the light, he saw the white clothes.

The pure white dress was as white as snow. The girl looked like a real angel walking slowly from a dream. The light shone on her golden hair, which sparkled with a charming luster. Star couldn't help but stare at it for a few seconds.

Her smooth and shiny blonde hair was draped behind her, and her emerald green eyes were like the purest gems or a clear lake, deep and bright, as if they could see into people's hearts, which matched her facial features and face shape to create a breathtaking beauty.

Pure, exquisite, grand, smart, elegant...

Elegant and graceful, pure and bright, energetic and ethereal...

In an instant, Sta thought of many words to describe this beauty, and then these words were suddenly torn into pieces and dissipated in this picture.

He just felt dazed.

It was as if the girl in front of him was the most gorgeous light created by the Creator in this world...

Is this the "witch"?

No, it's "justice".

At this moment, Star suddenly woke up from his intoxication.

Well, I can't embarrass myself in front of other members of the Tarot Club...

In order to avoid embarrassing himself, he had to force himself to use "rolling the dice" to provide himself with concentration.

Then, under the introduction of Viscount Greylint, Star showed a gentle smile and apologized in a magnetic voice:
"Good evening, Miss Hall. I'm sorry, but I was distracted by your beauty."

Audrey didn't feel anything, because there were more than one or two people who saw her in a trance.

It's just that this voice, it seems... She maintained an elegant smile, kept observing, bowed and replied:
"Good evening, Mr. Doyle. I have read your latest novel several times."

Then, she added silently in her heart: That’s because I want to see from this whether you are a Beyonder or not…

However, although the aesthetic tastes of the characters in his works are a bit weird, I didn’t expect that this writer actually looks pretty good in real life?
In the circle she knew, it was probably difficult for anyone to match him...Except for Mr. Wheel of Fortune, who also had a charming voice, after all, they hadn't met each other yet?
only……

Audrey took a look at this handsome and well-dressed novelist and thought in surprise:
It seems that even I, as an “audience”, am not able to see through this gentleman?
And he seems...

In public, Audrey and Star exchanged a few pleasantries and didn't say anything else.

Then, she quietly went into a room, dismissed the maids, and talked to Susie:

"That novelist is so strange. I feel like the audience is not capable of analyzing anything from him. I can only observe him through some simple body language."

"It's like going back to the time before I drank the 'audience' potion."

"Susie, did you notice anything?"

The big golden retriever squatted opposite, shook his head humanely, thought for a moment and said:

"I also think he's so mysterious. I can only guess his mental state from his expression."

"However, at the beginning, he immediately noticed me squatting in the shadows. He seemed a little wary, but not surprised."

Mysterious...and seemed to have guessed Susie's difference all at once?

There was a hint of curiosity on Audrey's delicate face, as if she connected it to someone.

Just as she was puzzled, she heard Susie add again:

"By the way, Audrey, he seemed a little too embarrassed and ashamed when he was infatuated with your appearance just now."

Really? Audrey's bright eyes suddenly lit up.

……

After inviting him into the room, Audrey looked at the newcomer.

With an eagerness to have her expectations verified, or preferably confirmed, she weighed her words, but for a moment she didn't know how to start.

There were a lot of words stuck in her throat, so she could only look at him blankly.

Seemingly feeling somewhat helpless, he said first with a smile:
"Good evening, Miss Justice~"

As if her guess was confirmed, Audrey's bright eyes flickered for a moment, and her expression became lively.

At the same time, she felt something dissolving inside her body.

That was her "audience" potion that was completely digested.

It seemed that Miss Justice was very happy because of this reason, so she smiled playfully and greeted with a sweet voice:
"Good evening, Mr. Wheel of Fortune~"

After saying that, she and he smiled at each other again.
