Mystery: Big Alarm Clock Ghroth Path

Chapter 35 Invitation Letter
In the end, Audrey took the initiative to ask "The Hanged Man" Alger to tell her some stories about the secret organization, for which she was willing to pay 1000 gold pounds as a reward.

Driven by money, Alger naturally worked very hard, telling in detail about secret organizations such as the "Moss Ascetic Order", "The Secret Order", "The Spiritual Order", and "The Psychological Alchemy Society", and even described the rumors about the revival of the "Hidden Sage".

After Alger mentioned that all the high-ranking members of the Witch Cult were women, Audrey and Klein, combined with the knowledge from the Wheel of Fortune, naturally connected it to the "witch" potion, rather than believing the seemingly reasonable explanation of the legend that "the Witch Cult would kill the father of the child and abandon the baby boy."

This once again reminded them: the truth about the world of extraordinary people is likely to be absurd and bizarre, and they must never take it for granted with the inertial thinking of ordinary people, otherwise they may reach the wrong conclusion that goes in the opposite direction.

This party made everyone satisfied because everyone got what they wanted.

Seeing that time was almost up, Klein the Fool adjourned the meeting.

"Follow your will."

Justice, the Hanged Man, and the Wheel of Fortune stood up, spoke in unison, and then disappeared at the same time, turning into stars in the sky.

Klein looked at the crimson stars in the sky and was about to "log off" when he suddenly heard a "praying" sound coming from one of the stars.

He thought for a moment, then extended his spiritual power and gently touched the crimson...

"I'm so tired."

Roger stood up, stretched, and looked at the tabby cat Bandit who was reading a newspaper.

With the further digestion of the "Apprentice" potion, its reading ability has been further improved recently. It can understand simple stories in popular newspapers and magazines without the help of the "Scholar's Ring".

Roger would only give it the ring to help it understand some more complex articles and reports involving specific nouns.

This kind of learning is not a simple task of completing, but more like the curiosity that naturally arises in children after they learn to read.

Roger naturally enjoyed this and always responded to requests.

Although he was not an excellent student in his previous life, this did not prevent Roger from recognizing the importance of knowledge.

Even if we take a step back, in this world, knowledge can bring real benefits!
Seeing Roger stand up, Bandit looked up at him, then used his right paw to pick up a white envelope next to him.

"A letter? Did you get it from the mailbox?"

Roger was slightly stunned. After the last time Amon forced the "Shepherd's Evil Heart" on him, he now felt a PTSD-like tension whenever he saw an envelope.

But seeing Bandit nod, he still picked up the envelope and turned it over.

"Huntington Law Firm..."

Seeing the stamp, Roger breathed a sigh of relief and immediately opened the envelope.

Dear Mr. Metersbonwe,
"We sincerely invite you to participate as an executive director in the founding ceremony of the 'Tingen Stray Animal Protection Association' to be held at 2: p.m. this Wednesday and preside over the ribbon-cutting ceremony.

"If you have any relatives or friends who would like to attend this event, please bring them along, or bring a certificate or invitation letter signed by you."

The signature is Leo François, a partner lawyer at Huntington Law Firm.

"Lawyer François is very efficient..."

Roger muttered to himself that the document he signed earlier had a rough preview of the establishment ceremony, but he didn't expect it to happen so soon.

"I don't have many friends in Tingen City, so I can invite Klein, Benson, and Melissa's family of three.

"Oh right... we can also invite Heinus Vincent to maintain our relationship with our colleagues... He probably isn't dead now like in the original novel."

Although he was unsure whether Vincent had the courage to show up in the current high-pressure environment where the Night Watchmen were cracking down on illegal organizations, as a nominal core member of the Aurora Society, he still felt it necessary to take care of "Mr. C's" feelings.

So Roger took out some letter paper and quickly wrote four invitations.

Then he put an invitation letter into an envelope, put a 1 penny stamp on it, and put it into the mailbox on the corner. Then he strode to number Daffodil Street and knocked on the door.

It was Melissa who opened the door. When she saw Roger coming, she immediately smiled.

Because of Klein, the girl had a good impression of this decent neighbor.

"Mr. Bangwei, good afternoon. By the way, please come in and sit down. I'll make you some tea." "Melissa, good afternoon. Just call me Metes. I won't bother you today. Are Klein and Benson here?"

Roger didn't come in, but took off his wide-brimmed hat and asked politely.

"Klein should be back soon. Benson's been busy lately... Do you have anything to talk to them about?"

"Yes, there will be an inaugural ceremony for the Tingen City Stray Animal Protection Association in a couple of days. Since Klein is my first sponsor, I'd like to invite you to attend."

Roger handed the invitation letter to Melissa. The girl curiously unfolded the letter and saw the time and place written on it, as well as the signature of "Executive Director Metersbonwe".

"Executive Director... so impressive."

Melissa immediately looked at Roger with new eyes. She had never imagined that this young gentleman who lived in the improved house next to her, who was often seen around her and who led a low-key life, was actually the head of a municipal charity organization.

"By the way, you just said Klein was your first sponsor?"

Melissa's attention quickly shifted to another important point, something that didn't fit her stereotype of her brother.

"Yes, thanks to Klein's generosity, the stray cat Bandit had his first full meal."

Roger spoke in a sincere and half-truthful manner.

"Ah...I see."

Melissa now had a more comprehensive understanding of Klein's earlier account of how he and Meters met.

"I don't have classes on Wednesday afternoon, and Klein should also have a day off.

"As for Benson... he's been preparing for an exam lately. I can ask him if he has time."

The girl said somewhat uncertainly.

"Then please."

Roger bowed slightly, thanked him, and turned to leave.

The time soon came to evening.

After finishing work, Benson and Klein returned home and saw Melissa preparing dinner.

"Melissa, how was your day?"

Benson asked with a smile.

"I'm fine. By the way, Meters was here today and invited us to attend the founding ceremony of a charity organization.

"I agreed on behalf of Klein, but I'm not sure if you have the time."

Melissa pointed to the three letters on the table.

Hearing their sister say this, Klein and Benson both opened the letter curiously.

"Tingen City Stray Animal Protection Association..."

Klein was deeply shocked. After this period of in-depth contact with Roger, he had actually come to accept that Roger's Stray Cat Protection Association was a scam.

But now, seeing this letter and the signature of "Executive Director", he couldn't help but feel that some of his ideas were refreshed.

"A core member of the Aurora Society and a protector of stray cats and dogs. It sounds strangely reasonable..."

Although he felt very uncomfortable, he was very curious and wanted to see the so-called founding ceremony.

"Standardizing the protection and sheltering of stray animals is a good thing. There aren't many people like Meters who are truly willing to donate money and effort to charity... Of course, Sir Deville is one, if you don't talk about his difficult-to-achieve demands."

Benson's smile first turned into an exclamation of admiration, and then he said seriously:
"Of course I'll go to such an event."
