Mystery: From Celestial Venerable's Backup to Red Priest

Chapter 90: The search for the recipe is complete.

By the time Klein and his captain returned after completing their mission, it was already evening.

Seeing the captain's exhausted face, Klein couldn't wait to ask:

"Captain, how is it?"

"Ryle Bieber has been killed. During the battle, an Extraordinary attacked to try and steal the Antigonus Family Notes. One member of the Punisher team was killed, but Leonard was alert and killed the attacker as well."

Klein glanced at Leonard, who was helping Cohen maintain order at the scene, but he wasn't surprised. Instead, he continued to ask:

"Was a channeling session performed? What was the result?"

"The explosion was indeed carried out by Riel Bieber, mainly to distract us and prepare for storming the police station to seize his mother's body. However, he did not expect that the support from the Sanctuary would arrive just in time, allowing us to track him down using the sealed artifact."

As we initially suspected, Riel Bieber does indeed possess the bloodline of the Antigonus family, and we learned through psychic communication that the notebook originated from the secret organization, The Secret Order. The extraordinary individual who attacked us was a member of the Secret Order who tracked us down here.

The people supporting the sanctuary have already placed the notebook behind the Chanis Gate, ready to take it back to the sanctuary tomorrow.

I heard there was another accident here. What happened?

Seeing that Klein seemed lost in thought, Mr. Schumer recounted the events that had transpired. Dunn Smith took the remaining letter, frowned, and said:

"It is indeed something to take seriously. I will hand this over to the people from the Sanctuary in a moment and have them take it back for the Sanctuary to assess. I will first erase the memories of the ordinary people around me, and then we will go to the Halls district together."

Dunn Smith, as a "nightmare," has the ability to make people forget what they saw that day.

After working for more than an hour, a tired-looking Dunn Smith finally finished the "Great Memory Erasure" on everyone, then handed everything over to the police and hurriedly left.

When they arrived at 19 Halls Street, Klein surveyed the house and found nothing unusual. Dunn Smith also did not sense any intelligent beings inside, so he brazenly prepared to enter.

But as soon as they entered, they heard the sound of a window breaking on the second floor.

The night watchmen exchanged glances, drew their guns, and rushed forward at top speed, only to see a blood-red figure disappear from their sight just before the shattered French windows.

Putting away his pistol, Dunn Smith saw Klein's embarrassed expression and said with a smile:

"Don't feel guilty. In the extraordinary world, no ability is 100% reliable. Not to mention that the figure might be Mr. Z, a mid-sequence user. It's normal that you didn't divine his situation."

Klein sighed softly to himself and said:

"Yes! Taking it over isn't the only way!"

After saying that, Klein suddenly found himself in a strange state, with illusory voices in his ears. Without anyone else's prompting, Klein understood that he had completely digested the "Diviner" potion.

"Captain, I found something in Sirius Arepis's bedroom."

At that moment, Leonard came over with some papers and handed them to captain Dunn Smith.

The captain glanced at it, then calmly handed it to Klein, saying:

"It was indeed Sirius Arepis and Hynarson Vancent who sold that notebook to your classmate, which makes the whole incident clear."

Now that everyone who had access to the notebook has been found and the notebook itself has been collected, it can be said that the Antigonus Family Notebook incident is officially over.

Klein took the item from the captain's hand, glanced at it, and froze, because it contained three potion recipes: "The Diviner," "The Clown," and "The Apprentice."

Klein looked at the captain and Leonard in surprise, only to find that they had already shifted their gaze elsewhere, while Mr. Schumer glanced at them and, without saying anything, went to check the other rooms.

Seeing this, Klein understood perfectly well that his teammates had given him special treatment, and he was deeply moved.

Backlund, West End.

Although he knew that Aurora had a base in the West District, Evan still found it incredible to see the villas receding into the distance through the carriage window.

Because this place is practically right next to Queens, Mr. A dared to set up his base here, which makes one marvel at his audacity.

When the carriage turned onto another street, Evan was even more surprised, because this was Edward Street, and the West End house that Robert had given to Evan was 12 Edward Street.

Guided by Hugh Deercha, Evan arrived at the meeting place of the Aurora Society. He glanced at the house number "16" on the door and couldn't help but touch his face with his hand. Looking into the distance, he could even vaguely see his own house.

After all that, it turns out that Mr. A from the Aurora Club is actually my neighbor. What a coincidence!

This wasn't what surprised Evan the most. What surprised him the most was that Edward Street was only one block away from MI9 headquarters at 9 Bellotto Street. If there wasn't a mole in MI9, it could only mean that MI9 knew about this place but was just keeping a mole around for their own benefit.

Of course, it's also possible that MI9 genuinely didn't know about the Aurora Society's base here, but Evan thought that was unlikely.

If there really is a case of blind spots, it only means that the entire Backlund has become a sieve, and MI9 should be completely disbanded. They shouldn't try to justify their previous intelligence failures.

Moreover, in the original work, after Duke Negan was assassinated, the Aurora Society was also blamed. MI9 swept through many Aurora Society strongholds, indicating that they had been in control of these places beforehand, just waiting to use them to give their superiors an explanation when trouble arose.

More importantly, in the original story, Hugh Deercha made contact with MI9 agents at Mr. A's party and became an external intelligence agent.

Thinking of this, Evan looked around to see if there were any of his colleagues.

As Evan and Hugh Deercha entered the villa, Evan indeed found a man wearing a golden mask sitting alone in a corner, observing the people around him.

Evan was speechless. Don't the people in MI9 ever pretend? Do they all wear masks provided by the organization when they attend parties?

Evan also had this golden mask; it was part of his standard equipment when he joined the company. However, Evan was worried that the mask was too symbolic, so he wore the iron mask that he had received from Isengard Stanton's previous gathering to Mr. A's party.

Clearly, Hugh Deercha's height is so iconic that many people exchanged glances and chuckled when they saw him arrive.

Evan noticed that his colleague with the golden mask was paying more attention to him.
