Secret: I can play two paths

Chapter 267 Wheel of Fortune (unable to suppress the corners of the mouth): This is what I want to see

Above the gray mist, in a palace that looks like a giant's residence.

Not to mention that Mr. Fool and his alias "Mr. World" were in an awkward situation and gradually adapted to the pressure of the sudden increase in spiritual consumption.

The newcomers Xio and Fors were each sitting in their respective seats. Seeing the other four Beyonders at the party, they couldn't help but sigh in their hearts at the same time:

There are so many people...

Are these the other four members from different backgrounds? As a writer, Fors made a guess immediately, and even wondered whether there would be love-hate relationships among these four people, and whether this would create a touching emotional story.

I have to complain that as a writer of emotional stories, Fors is really dedicated to his work. Even when he came to the Gray Fog Space, he still kept his job to practice his ability to collect inspiration.

But Xio had another idea: Could it be that there was someone else like her who came here with a deep hatred and injustice and was recommended by Mr. Doyle?
In this, Mr. Doyle played a role similar to that of a "devil" to make deals and collect people's souls, requiring people like himself to offer their stories to these great beings in order to please them in exchange for corresponding rewards - to let them help them with their situations?

The two of them were thinking about various things at the bronze table not far away. At this time, Mr. Fool Klein was also adjusting to the spiritual burden brought by the vest of Mr. "World" and the two female Beyonders, Xio and Fors.

It has to be said that if the sequence is not raised in the short term, it will be difficult to add a new Beyonder member... Klein felt a slight pain in his head at one point, and then he felt much better.

After all, some spiritual capacity must be reserved to bear the spiritual consumption generated by Sta and others after their advancement.

Thinking of this, Klein glanced at Sta without showing any emotion:
I always feel that Star is a little different today than usual. Is it his illusion?

But the spiritual problem has been solved, which is a good thing for him.

Klein planned to wait for the Tarot Club members to ask first, and then slowly introduce the new members - this would help maintain his [Beep] character.

At the same time, Star watched as part of Klein's spiritual energy was transferred to himself, and watched as the illusory black line that controlled "Mr. World" disappeared from his sight.

Star finally confirmed that if he was not a god in this gray foggy space, he at least had the influence equivalent to that of an angel who could wield authority.

As rays of light rose in the palace that looked like a giant's residence, Star had already noticed the seven people including Klein...

No, Klein and "The World" should be counted as one person, and they must adhere to the "Zhou Mingrui" principle!
So there are probably only six people here.

But anticipating the possibility that Klein might overdo it and fail to cope, Star had a plan for the spiritual consumption of several more Extraordinary People. He transferred the spiritual consumption that was originally borne by him to himself, and even prevented Klein from feeling the loss of spiritual energy due to his absence.

Having achieved this, he can truly be Mr. Fool's "caring subordinate".

But Xio and Fors were probably lured in by Star because he had nothing to do. We can't just pull them up and clap our hands and ignore them, right?

So Star not only took advantage of the situation to transfer some of the spiritual consumption to himself, but also watched Audrey observing and wondering why three new people came all of a sudden.

Star, the "culprit", also took the initiative to act as a supporting role and said:

“Good afternoon, Mr. Fool. May I ask which one of you is the ‘magician’ who ‘generously’ lent a helping hand during the incident in Tingen City?”

What, "magician"?
When did I ever do such a thing?
As a "good citizen" and a "magician", Fors had no recollection of having participated in the operation in Tingen City. You know, she was lazy that day and stayed in bed without wanting to move at all. How could she have the time to do such a thing!
So, it's another member? But why is it called "Magician"?

What, Tingen City!?

Mr. Fool and Mr. Wheel of Fortune actually participated in such a thing?

The "Hanged Man" of the Tarot Club, who had a wide range of knowledge and had more or less known the news of Tingen City, seemed to have heard an incredible secret. They lowered their heads and began to think.

Among them, the Hanged Man was excited. After learning that Mr. Wheel of Fortune secretly killed "Admiral Hurricane" Qilingos with the participation of the "Followers" sent by Mr. Fool, he realized that he could not escape and could not resist, so he could only offer his loyalty to Mr. Fool.

However, it is easy to understand why Mr. Fool is involved, as it should be part of some unknown plan of the gods. But Mr. Wheel of Fortune doesn't seem to care at all about the secret being leaked. Could it be that he has the support of some powerful being?

Yes, last time he revealed that he had a connection with the Lord believed in by "The Sun", so he must have something special to rely on.

Only Audrey understood in a flash that Mr. Fool might also be involved in the incident in Tingen City, but she didn't want Mr. Wheel of Fortune to know the secret, so she immediately responded:
"Yes, I heard that the Aurora Society planned an evil advent ceremony there."

Maybe Mr. Wheel of Fortune didn't care if others knew that he was closely involved in the action in Tingen City, but Audrey felt:
It would be better not to let other members of the Tarot Club know Star’s core secret.

After all, being known to have planned such an action that was inconsistent with the official would always have an impact on Mr. Wheel of Fortune.

As they watched the Tarot Club members around them finally calm down, they thought that Mr. Fool and Mr. Wheel of Fortune were participating in the action to stop the Aurora Club as mentioned in the newspaper report.

Audrey, who had kept everyone in the dark, finally breathed a sigh of relief for Star in her heart.

——After all, there must be a reason for the changes in Tingen City. Putting everything on the "knight" who killed Kapin as a messenger of justice would be illogical and disconnected for the people.

So the authorities blamed the strike in Tingen City on the Aurora Society, claiming that everything was the responsibility of the Aurora Society - who asked them to actually participate in the ceremony in Tingen City?
It can be said that everything can be put on the blame of the "Aurora Society".

This also facilitated the week-long cleanup operation against the Aurora Society—which only stopped after the death of Mr. Backlund X and others.

But Klein obviously couldn't think that deeply. He just froze in place and thought of the biggest expense in his life - a huge expenditure of 15,000 gold pounds.

I am really being "generous"!

Klein gritted his teeth at the helping hand he had extended, and finally swallowed his anger and silently made another note in Ince Zangwill's little notebook of grudges.

When Star saw Klein’s emotional aura appearing “angry red” after “the old matter was brought up again”, he couldn’t help but curl up his lips:
What did he want to see most when he came to the Tarot Club? This was what he wanted to see. It was a wonderful thing to watch Klein being persecuted on time every week.

In the "real vision" that Star saw through the gray fog combined with the "narration", Klein was depressed and a little discouraged at this time:
Because he found that he couldn't hold on to his gold pounds at all, and his savings were reduced to zero in just one week...

But at this moment, Klein could only control his expression and not show any problems. As if he agreed with everyone's speculation, he turned his gaze to the figure sitting at the end.

Klein leaned back and said leisurely, projecting blurry red figures of Tarot Club Star, Justice, and others.
"He's the new member, Mr. World."

After a pause, he added casually, "As Mr. Wheel of Fortune said, he is also a 'magician'."

After saying this, Klein asked Mr. World to stand up and signal. Then he looked at Xio, Fors and others who were on the lady's side and said:

"This is our Miss Magician and Miss Judge, and they are also the new members of our Tarot Club."

Then, Klein looked towards Mr. World, Miss Magician, and Miss Judgment, and introduced them one by one:
"This is Mr. Wheel of Fortune, and this is Ms. Justice..."

Tarot Club?
And "Wheel of Fortune"?
The writer, who had good observation skills, matched the code names with the characters and nodded in greeting, and quickly grasped the key points:
At the scene where Kapin was killed, there were two cards, "Wheel of Fortune" and "Judgment"!
"The meaning of the 'Judgment' card should be 'Kapin was put on trial, and the result was the death penalty'. What does the 'Wheel of Fortune' card represent the identity of that hero?"

Best-selling author Fors once instinctively interpreted the unique layout of the crime scene, but now when he thinks about it again, he can't help but be stunned.

Tarot cards? The body was covered with tarot cards? Fors suddenly thought of the name of this secret organization - the Tarot Society!

This was done by a member of ours named "Wheel of Fortune"... If it is true, this is the first time I have found traces of the Tarot Club in the real world... We are not just a secret organization that only exists above the gray fog... Fors's thoughts were churning, with both surprise and worry.

Regardless of whether the death scene covered with tarot cards is the iconic symbol of the Tarot Club, Fors instantly thought that since there are traces of the Tarot Club in Backlund in the real world, could this also be related to Mr. Doyle who is also in Backlund?
Wait, the Miss Justice present is a blonde lady; only Mr. Wheel of Fortune, Mr. Hanged Man and Mr. Sun are men.

So who could it be Mr. Doyle? After taking a look at the silent and introverted boy "Little Sun" and the messy dark blue hair of "The Hanged Man" that looked like seaweed, Fors first ruled out these two gentlemen and finally set his sights on Mr. "Wheel of Fortune".

As for Mr. World, his eyes were cold and gloomy. It was obvious that he was not someone to be trifled with. Moreover, it was impossible to tell his gender, so Fors ruled him out from the beginning...

Fors compared them one by one and found that only Mr. Wheel of Fortune fit the mysterious and gentle temperament, while the other men were either too young, too alert, or too grim.

But Mr. "Wheel of Fortune" is him, and Mr. Doyle is also him?
In an instant, Fors seemed to have figured out something, and her whole body couldn't help but tremble.

This... Could it be that Mr. Doyle, as a "knight", personally took action both times?
Judging from the tarot cards, it is very likely!

What a wonderful idea, a best-selling novelist actually transforms himself into the "knight" in his novel and goes into battle himself when he goes out to collect materials?
At this moment, Fors secretly glanced at Star, her eyes filled with awe and surprise.

What a magical reality this is, the master is by my side?
If Star wasn't usually so gentle, Fors would have been worried that Star would kill her to silence her.

I just didn't expect him to be such a righteous man. Let me think, could it be that he tracked down Qi Lingos because the notorious pirate general had committed many evil deeds and killed some homeless people in Backlund, so he was discovered and killed by him?

The writer Fors, using his professional characteristics, began to guess in surprise.

I didn't expect that Mr. Doyle, who usually behaves so casually, actually has such an unknown side. He is a chivalrous man. Maybe the death of the extraordinary people in the Aurora Society is related to him...

At this time, Mr. Fool also finished introducing the members of the Tarot Club, including the little "Sun", who imagined that Mr. Fool was a great being for having so many members join at once.

Unexpectedly, Tarot Club has grown stronger again, and it turned out that three members joined together after passing the examination...

Under the arrangement of Mr. Fool, Mr. World, Miss Magician and others also nodded to everyone and were welcomed and greeted by the Tarot Club members headed by Mr. Wheel of Fortune and Miss Justice as "class representatives".

After doing all this, Miss Justice and Mr. Wheel of Fortune looked at each other across the long bronze table, making everyone feel that there was an inexplicable tacit understanding between the two of them.

This was also Audrey's inner thought. She looked at Star with a smile on her face and blinked cutely, as if she was very happy with Star's behavior.

After all, judging from her figure, Miss "Judgment"'s special height is only possessed by Miss Xio.

After Miss "Xiu" and Miss "Magician" looked at each other, Miss "Magician" showed her characteristics: brown hair, slightly curly, is this Ms. Fors?

They all sounded like Backlund, and the details of their auras and emotions matched well... After all, it's impossible for Mr. Fool to fake an image specifically for the members, right? He doesn't need to hide anything... Well, Mr. Wheel of Fortune should have the same mentality...

Thinking about this, Audrey silently worried about Star: Mr. "Wheel of Fortune" should put on some disguise.

By the way, didn’t the Fool tell us before that Xio and Fors would have to go through a strict selection process?
Was it because of Mr. Wheel of Fortune that I was able to pass it so quickly?
Audrey felt that her guess was correct. The only question was when did Mr. Wheel of Fortune do this? Was it on the day when he killed Qi Lingos?

That should be right. Mr. "Wheel of Fortune" asked me about the progress of the investigation on the pirate general that day...

Audrey's eyes sparkled, and she seemed to be thinking about something. Her eyes met Star's unconsciously.

Until the Hanged Man made a gesture there, as usual, as if eager to prove his status and value in this party.

He spoke in front of all the Tarot Club members:

“Mr. Fool, I got a total of 19 pages of diary this time.”
