Mystery: The Returner of the Stars

Chapter 231 Leonard: The Clown Is Actually Myself!
Leonard stayed where he was. At this moment, he seemed to feel like a clown.

What kind of plot is this unfolding?

This immortal witch let herself go, and then followed Hastur again?

How long has it been since Hastur fell under the witch's charm?
It can't be blamed for Hastur's weak resistance. He was easily taken down by the witch in a few words.

And Hastur's face is really attractive, as well as his slender figure and extraordinary discussion, plus he can write poetry.

No, I have to remind Hasta to stay away from this witch!
This seemingly innocent girl in front of her is a terrifying existence!

Leonard thought about a lot of things at this moment. He hugged Hastur's shoulders, pretended to be angry, and wanted to drag him out of the bar, and then looked for an opportunity to tell him about the true face of Miss Serafina. .

He pulled hard, hey, there was no dragging, Hastur was still sitting in his seat, looking at him curiously.

"Leonard, don't be so nervous, Miss Serafina just said this in front of you on purpose."

Hastur smiled to appease Leonard to calm down, and motioned him to drink a glass of wine before talking.

"Hasta, it's not a matter of truth or lies, she simply..."

Leonard wanted to say it, but when he saw Serafina's smiling eyes, he swallowed what he wanted to say again.

"Don't worry, Miss Seraphina came here tonight just to find something for me, and I don't want to settle the past love and hate entanglement with you."

Hastur comforted Leonard again, telling him not to worry too much.

"What, she came to see you?"

Leonard was in a daze again, he couldn't figure out what was going on in front of him.

"I just met her daughter, and she just came to deliver something for me."

Hastur said and looked at Serafina, "Is that so, Miss Serafina?"

"daughter?!"

Leonard's head was hit again with a heavy hammer, and the immortal witch in front of him actually had a daughter!
And Hastur also knew the daughter of the other party!
This relationship is too complicated!

Wait, wasn't she the mother of a friend who fell in love with her friend back then?

The corner of Leonard's mouth twitched, really wanting to slap himself.

Only now did he understand why Hastur acted strangely about his relationship with Serafina, as if he was holding back something.

Hastur must be embarrassed to tell himself that the other party is already a wife with a daughter!

"Of course, I didn't mean to catch some heartless man."

Serafina glanced at Leonard with a complex expression on his face, chuckled, and handed Hastur a piece of paper full of content, which contained the potion formulas from Sequence 8 to Sequence 5 of the Witch Path.

"Miss Seraphina, please take this trip in person, it's really hard work."

Hastur took the paper and put it directly into his pocket.

"There will always be someone who needs to pay for their recklessness, and just hope it doesn't happen again."

After speaking, Serafina drank the wine in the glass, then got up and left.

After her figure left the bar, Leonard finally recovered from the shock just now. He stood up, put his hands on Hasta's shoulders, and stared straight at Hasta.

"Hasta, should you give me an explanation!"

"What explanation?"

"When did the relationship between you and that old...Miss Seraphina become so good?"

"She is Mrs. Gemani's mother, and I only found out about it not long ago."

"Her daughters are already married?"

Leonard froze for a moment. Even though he had expected it, he still couldn't bear it when he heard that the immortal witch was already a grandma.

At that time, he actually fell in love with a grandma-level woman, and he even thought about getting married and settling down...

"Yeah, Leonard, your vision is really good, Miss Serafina's daughter is also very beautiful."

"..."

Leonard let go of the hands holding Hastur's shoulders, and sat in his position blankly, not knowing what he was thinking.

After a while, he slapped himself, poured down a glass of wine, and muttered to the bartender to bring the wine.

Hastur thought for a while, and decided not to provoke Leonard for the time being. The stimulation he received tonight is probably something he will never forget.

Afterwards, there was no further conversation between the two, each drinking their own wine.

Hastur drank slowly, tasting each of the different wines here, and Leonard began to drink South Wales beer in big glasses.

At eleven o'clock in the evening, Leonard, who was already smelling of alcohol, looked at Hasta and said, "Hasta, tell me the truth, did you know Serafina's true identity a long time ago?"

Hastur frowned slightly and said, "Are you referring to the fact that Miss Seraphina is Mrs. Gemani's mother?"

"..."

Leonard choked again when he wanted to ask, paused for two or three seconds, he waved his hand and said, "It's nothing, I just find it a little strange."

"I'm also a little surprised. The breakup between you and Miss Serafina was probably not that simple, was it?"

"..."

Leonard turned sideways, leaving Hastur with a vicissitudes of his back, and said in a low tone: "It's all over, the past is like flowers, flowers fly and flowers fade, irreversible."

Seeing Leonard's appearance, Hastur couldn't help prodding him again, "Leonard, you have a sense of vicissitudes and stories, and you are easy to be liked by girls. Miss Seraphina was So I like yours, right?"

"..."

Leonard immediately shuddered, quickly picked up his glass, and shouted loudly, "Drink!"

It was close to one o'clock in the morning when Leonard staggered up and left.

Leonard, who was already [-]% drunk, could no longer remember the bill. Hasta, who had eaten melon all night, could only help pay for it, including the drink that Serafina drank.

"Can you go back by car?"

Hastur was a little worried about Leonard's state tonight. Just now he drank one after another, and went to the bathroom four times.

"It's okay, I, cough... know the way."

Leonard obviously overestimated his drinking capacity. Hastur stopped a car and asked his family's coachman to take Leonard back to St. Samuel's Church, and he went home in the stopped carriage.

In the carriage, Leonard lifted the curtain of the carriage, blowing the cold wind in the early morning, and gradually recovered from his drunken state.

Arriving near St. Samuel's Church, he gave the coachman a tip of 1 gold pound, and then staggered back to his residence.

As soon as he got home, Leonard threw himself on the bed and started shouting, "Old man, shouldn't you answer my doubts tonight?"

"Heh, aren't you dead yet? Just call me for help so anxiously."

"That's the Immortal Witch. I called you to give you enough time to prepare."

"Obviously I was scared out of my wits."

"...I am the Sequence Seven. Of course I will be nervous when facing an immortal witch."

"Isn't your friend, Hastur, always calm? Why don't you learn from others?"

Mentioning Hastur, Leonard became sober again, and said seriously, "Do you think Hastur knows Serafina's true identity as the Immortal Witch?"

"You already have the answer in your heart."

"Ugh."

Leonard sighed, "I really didn't expect Hastur to be so calm in the face of an immortal witch. Could it be that he is also a member of the Witch Sect?"

After finishing speaking, he himself laughed, "Not to mention, if Hastur becomes a witch, his appearance will definitely not be inferior to that immortal witch."

"Then, are you thinking about falling in love again?"

The sarcastic laughter made Leonard's expression hard, "I'm not as dirty as you think!"

"How do you know that the immortal witch didn't change from a male to a witch because of taking the magic potion?"

"..."

Leonard's face darkened, and he really didn't want to talk about this topic.

"I think there is a better way to deal with Ince Zangwill?"

"Where you are is where you are."

"besides?"

"You still want to seek revenge from a Sequence 4 night watchman alone?"

"Ahem, I just wanted to ask."

"Stop dreaming."

"...Old man, you are really ruthless."

"Don't blame me for not reminding you, when you notice Ince Zangwill, 008 will notice you too."

"I see."

……

The next day, Leonard got up and took half a day off to head to the West District to look for Klein.

He has limited abilities alone and needs a suitable helper.

When Klein knew Leonard's intentions, Klein told him not to speak for now.

After dealing with Ince Zangwill and 008 in Tingen last time, Klein has mastered some corresponding extraordinary knowledge.

Without the shelter of secrecy, every word he and Leonard said could be known to 008.

Making plans in advance will not work at all, it is difficult for them to hide 008's ability.

"We'll go to St. Samuel's and talk about it."

Klein and Leonard returned to St. Samuel's Church in a carriage.

The two of them directly explained the matter about Ince Zangwill to the archbishop who guarded the church, Anthony Stevenson.

Archbishop Anthony agreed, led them to a prayer room, and signaled that they could speak freely.

"It's like this. I learned from a friend that Ince Zangwill has something to do with Prince Edsaac, and even secretly arranged for Prince Edsaac to have coincidences many times."

Leonard said all the information he heard from Hastur.

"It must be him!" Klein suddenly had a spiritual premonition.

"Prince Edsac is a member of the royal family. If there is no evidence, he can't mess around." Archbishop Anthony reminded them.

Leonard volunteered and said, "I want to contact Prince Edsaac in person, and find out Ince Zangwill."

"It's dangerous."

Klein disagreed with Leonard's risky behavior. 008's ability to arrange coincidences is terrifying, and he can even use such a bad move as a stomachache.

"Someone has to go to solve this matter. I am a member of the Red Gloves team. The more dangerous it is, the more difficult it is to face it."

"But……"

Klein wanted to persuade him a few more words, but was stopped by Archbishop Anthony. He looked at Leonard with admiration, and then slowly said: "Since the church has sealed 008, it naturally knows how to avoid its prying eyes. It wants to arrange a script for a person, but also needs to meet some preconditions, and it is not arbitrary."
