Chapter 142 Prophecy
Chapter 145 Prophecy
Klein's calmness was shattered.
His pupils shrank to the size of pinholes, and he was completely stunned.
"He knows, he really knows!"
"He can indeed see me and everything about me!"
At this moment, Klein almost wanted to directly connect with him spiritually and ask what the other party wanted to do.
But at the last moment, he broke off contact with the crimson stars, then his body went limp and he almost lost his balance.
"I'm being watched."
This feeling was so strong that Klein almost went crazy.
He didn't know the specific circumstances of those who thought they lost their minds and became crazy after listening to the nonsense, but now he could empathize with the fear of being seen through by unknown beings.
......
"I think I can't hold it any longer."
Tang Sen played with his cane and showed a wicked smile.
Although Mr. "The Fool" still had no feedback at all, with Tang Sen's understanding of the plot and human nature, even the most cautious person would expose loopholes under layers of redaction.
Then, he returned his attention to the cane, which was the result of today's shopping. It was made of walnut wood, with gems inlaid on the top of the cane.
Worth 5 gold pounds and twelve soles.
Professor Reid also bought one. The top is pure gold, and the wooden part also has a lot of gold-inlaid patterns. It looks very bold and is worth 8 gold pounds.
He actually doesn't want to buy such a conspicuous cane. As a professor, he prefers pure wood, low-key and subtle. Unfortunately, this does not meet Tang Sen's requirements.
He has to look richer.
For example, his formal attire was purchased at the best custom formal attire store in Queens. Although it was not a custom-made model, it was still top-of-the-line. The top hat, vest, jacket, etc. together cost more than 70 gold pounds, which is close to half the price of Professor Reid.
salary.
Then the two went to the bank again and deposited a huge sum of fifty thousand gold pounds into Professor Reid's account.
It's not that he can't save more, but Professor Reid strongly requested that he believe that fifty thousand pounds is enough for the bankers to treat him politely and make him qualified to enter and exit the upper class circles, and more
Deposits will only bring trouble.
Sometimes this person is very fanatical, and sometimes he is unusually sober.
Backlund has a population of more than five million. Every day there are lucky people who get rich overnight, and every day rich people from all over the world come here. This is not uncommon, but if the amount of wealth is too large, Professor Reid
I’m afraid I won’t be able to hold it.
"Cash is cash, assets are assets."
"If your purpose is to open up channels for the upper class and get in touch with various circles, then this number is enough, so much that I can become a guest of the nobles."
Professor Reid said this: "But if you want to become the upper class, or even control something, you need to convert cash into assets, which will be much more complicated and much more."
Townsend acknowledged his statement.
This native man of Backlund knows the rules of this metropolis better than an outsider like himself, and Tang Sen will not make the mistake of an amateur commanding an expert.
As the distant cousin of a new rich man, it is a more reasonable choice to follow him to see the world and achieve your own goals.
"Mr. Baggins."
Professor Reid's embarrassed voice came from outside the door.
"Just call me Rayleigh, Professor Reid, you need to develop a habit." Tang Sen opened the door and said: "It is very suspicious behavior to treat your cousin so cautiously in the eyes of others."
Professor Reid coughed lightly and said: "That's true. Then, please call me by my name, Kapusti."
"Okay, Professor Reid." Tang Sen asked: "What can I do?"
"...I just received a letter from the bank, and they invited me to attend the ball tomorrow night." Professor Reid said: "There will be many high-level people attending, including Baron Toles, Congressman Hermann, and the Workers' Management Association.
Vice President..."
"Will Earl Hall attend?" Townsend asked.
"Are you talking about the great nobleman and the great banker?" Professor Reid was surprised, "Of course he won't come. He and his daughter, who is known as Backlund's most dazzling pearl, only
Will appear at the top parties."
"This is what you need to work hard for," Tang Sen said.
"Mr. Baggins...Reilly, so your target is Earl Hall?" Professor Reid shrank his neck: "He is a great nobleman. He not only controls the economic lifeline of the kingdom, but he is also the richest man in the kingdom.
A group of people...It is rumored that the assets of the Hall family have exceeded 10 million gold pounds..."
"This is not something you need to consider, Professor Reid." Townsend said calmly: "Your job is to spend money, go to those boring aristocratic balls, get to know more people, and then, no matter what method,
, enter those parties at the top."
"As your cousin, of course I will occasionally follow you to see the world, but there is no need for tomorrow's dance."
Tang Sen did not want to waste too much time communicating with the nobles of this world, nor did he want to leave too many traces in everyone's eyes. After all, even if he would not be divined and watched, if there were too many traces, he might enter some
Within the sight of the extraordinary forces.
Therefore, Professor Reid's role is very crucial, and he will serve as his agent in this world.
Early the next morning, Professor Reid dressed up and went out. He needed to go to the school to submit his resignation, and then start his new "job", such as visiting some new friends.
Tang Sen got today's newspaper from the mailbox outside the door.
"Backlund Daily".
The headlines in the headlines are shocking.
"The great pirate Qilingos was shot to death by the Duke's bodyguards in Backlund."
The timeline is completely determined.
Tang Sen slowly read the newspaper and returned to the room.
Before Professor Reid achieved certain results, he had no need to go out and show his face. Because of the immortal curse, he had no intention of tasting the delicacies of this world.

He just returned to the room, took a deep breath, adjusted his tone, and then chanted in ancient Hermes:
"A fool who does not belong to this world——"
......
In Tingen City, at the Nighthawks headquarters disguised as a security company, everyone can see that Klein's face looks a little bad.
There are even some gods who don’t care about their homes.
Although he repeatedly claimed that he just didn't sleep well last night, as the captain of the Nighthawks, Dunn still asked him to go home and rest for half a day, and carefully reminded him that as an extraordinary person, he should not underestimate any mental problems.
p>
Otherwise, it is easy to hear the ravings of those evil gods and be taken advantage of.
Old Neil's example is already a very painful lesson.
Klein gave a bitter smile.
"Evil God?"
No, the voice I heard was much clearer than the evil god’s murmurs.
He was about to speak when he suddenly felt the call from above the gray mist again.
His expression changed slightly and he said, "I'll go to the bathroom first."
Such behavior may make Nighthawks teammates confused. If it were normal times, Klein would definitely choose the right reason and the right time, but he has no way to wait now.
"It must be that person again."
Klein took four steps backward and arrived above the gray fog.
Sure enough, it was still the crimson star that frightened him.
He took a deep breath, stretched out his spirituality, and touched the stars.
A voice came out from the darkness: "Blackthorn Security Company will have visitors today to entrust a task."
"Someone is going to die today."
Not a threat, but a prophecy.
Klein first instinctively breathed a sigh of relief, and then raised it again in an instant.
The name Blackthorn Security Company happens to be the disguise of the Nighthawks headquarters.
Is that being's sight even unable to block the Nighthawks' headquarters? That's right, no matter how tightly guarded the Nighthawks' headquarters are, they can't be compared to those above the gray fog.
"Entrusted tasks? Security company tasks generally do not involve extraordinary people. They are just extra money."
Klein did not dare to ignore the other party's prophecy. After all, the other party said that someone would die today.
Who will die?
He listened again and confirmed that the other party only had two sentences this time and did not include other information. Then he disconnected the link anxiously, walked to the long table in the hall, and sat down in the seat belonging to the Fool.

Then, he took off the citrine pendulum from his cuffs and quickly started divination:
"I will be in danger today."
"I will be in danger today."
"..."
After reciting silently seven times, he opened his eyes and saw that the citrine pendant was motionless.
"Too little information?"
Klein thought for a moment and changed his explanation.
"I should ask for leave today."
"I should ask for leave today."
"..."
After reciting it silently seven times, the citrine pendant began to rotate clockwise, with medium amplitude and speed.
Clockwise rotation means that you really should take leave, while medium speed means that the necessity of this matter is not small.
This means that it is not safe to stay in the security company today.
The other party’s prediction is very likely to be true!
Klein really wanted to divine who would die today, but he knew that such divination would inevitably fail unless he obtained enough information.
"An ordinary security commission?"
Klein exited above the gray mist, pretended to wash his hands, and walked out of the bathroom. He rejected the captain's suggestion to go home and rest again, followed the stairs to the security company's office, and found a newspaper.
I sat down on the sofa.
The whole morning passed in the midst of Klein's worries. When Klein stood up and prepared to have lunch, someone finally opened the door of the security company.
They are two ladies, one of whom has a plump figure and fair skin.
"Can I accept task delegation here?"
Under Klein's nervous gaze, the lady slowly said:
Chapter completed!
