Mystery: From the Shadow World

Chapter 69 Rich Woman

Chapter 69 Rich Woman
Since being promoted to "Werewolf" and retrieving the documents proving the two properties in Cherwood, Philip has not taken any action. Apart from the occasional walk or meal every day, and the commission to find the diary posted at the Brave Bar, he basically stays in his room.

The reason why the property was not sold immediately was that it was extremely unreasonable for either Jane Charlotte or the bounty hunter Bell Siles to sell two properties under these two identities.

So after a brief consideration, Philip decided to use the most secretive, secure, and convenient channel he could access.

Tarot Club, Miss Justice.

Philip didn't know exactly how much the other party's assets were, but considering that he was willing to give Mr. "The Hanged Man" 1000 pounds just because he wanted to know all the information about the secret organization, it shouldn't be a problem for him to grit his teeth and sell the two properties that he could easily sell.

So the only question now is whether Mr. Fool will allow such a clichéd deal. After all, it's a bit low-brow for a Beyonder to talk about houses at a gathering.
It shouldn't be a big problem. After all, although it doesn't involve the extraordinary, it is still a business of several thousand pounds. No, money is just paper in the eyes of gods. While Philip was thinking so, he sighed secretly and looked up at the wall clock.

The sight was suddenly shrouded in crimson.

Next to the ancient and mottled bronze long table.

After a brief moment of hesitation, Miss Justice thought about her golden retriever, Susie, who had spoken, and finally couldn't help but ask after the usual greeting:
"Gentlemen, what can a pet with extraordinary powers do for me?"

Upon hearing this, the scene suddenly fell silent.

Did they really feed the pet the potion? Philip was stunned, and he was completely sure of his previous guess. Even the prepared remarks in his mind were almost ruined.

Suddenly, a brilliant idea flashed through his mind. He immediately touched his chin, raised the corner of his mouth, and explained with a smile: "Animals that have taken the potion are almost the same as regular Beyonders, but..."

"Animals often have more advantages than humans. No one would think of a cute cat as an 'assassin', or a big dog lying at the door as a 'spectator', because it's hard for people to think of that."

"I see." Audrey blinked her emerald eyes, as if something had dawned on her. But then she heard Mr. Temperance change the subject and continue:

"I can also give you a hypothesis."

Imagine?

Audrey suddenly became curious.

"If your pet doesn't have any distinctive features, you can let it develop its own 'human hand' on the street, such as a stray cat or dog. This will be very convenient for finding people, tracking people, or any other purpose in the future."

Audrey subconsciously straightened her body, thinking about the possibility of this matter. She did not forget to stand up and bow politely to express her gratitude to Philip. "Thank you, Mr. Temperance. This is a good idea. I will consider it."

Thinking about herself, no, Susie's animal friends being spread all over Backlund by then, and all information being transmitted to her ears through them, she, who had just become a Beyonder, suddenly became excited again.

If you want to express your gratitude, why not change the name of the team to Paw Patrol? As Philip thought about this, his mood, which had improved due to the peaceful life these days, became even happier, and he decided to try out his idea when he had free time in the future.

Not only could this be used to assist with bounty hunter commissions, but more importantly, it would allow him to maintain his own intelligence network in a place like Backlund, virtually unnoticed. Philip had wanted to take advantage of the lively atmosphere to discuss some serious matters, but he quickly remembered the crucial point. He stood up, bowed slightly, and apologized, "Mr. Fool, I'm sorry. I've left my original location, so I have a lot of things to attend to."

"But I've already posted a commission to collect diaries at a special gathering here. I'll be able to receive the results the next time I go there."

Just being able to help me collect the diaries is enough to prove that you're not seriously injured for the time being. Klein leaned back in his chair, raised the corner of his mouth, and shook his head calmly, "It's nothing."

And
Next time I won’t be fooled by you!
Alger, the "Hanged Man," still hadn't returned to land, so the only thing Audrey gained from this Tarot meeting was the diary she obtained from Fors Wall, the Beyonder she had met.

Klein accepted this calmly. After all, at least he wouldn't have to skip this step, which would have put the entire group in an awkward position.

He picked up the diary and read it carefully.

"On December 20th, a new year will begin again, but the feedback I received one after another made me very confused and embarrassed."

"There is no oil in this world! There is no oil in this world!"

A few minutes later, after reading the diary, Klein gathered his thoughts. The page in his hand turned into mist and dissipated. He smiled and said, "You can start communicating now."

Hearing this, Philip, who had been waiting for a long time, finally mustered up the courage to look at Audrey and said, "I have something I'd like to ask Miss Justice for help with. It's a very simple matter."

"Excuse me, what's going on?" Audrey blinked her emerald eyes, temporarily suppressing the questions in her heart, and asked with some confusion.

Philip exhaled, his tone normal, "I have two properties in Backlund's Cherwood district that need to be taken care of, but I'm temporarily unable to spare the time. If possible, I hope you can buy them or resell them."

Property in Cherwood?
Audrey's pretty brows furrowed slightly. She roughly estimated her financial situation for the past month and found it somewhat unbearable, so she spoke:

"Okay, I'll try to resell it for free as payment for the previous question. But how are you going to get the documentation?"

“It’s very simple. It’s not a big deal.” Philip felt relieved when he saw that Mr. Fool didn’t interrupt him.

"Today at 5:00 PM, please choose a location in Backlund. I'll arrange for someone to deliver the documents. As for the proceeds, please transfer them to my unregistered account at the Backlund Bank."

As he spoke, he looked in the direction of the Fool, hiding his inner uneasiness, and said sincerely: "Mr. Fool, I hope you can be a witness."

Philip, let me tell you something funny. If Miss Justice absconds with the money, all I can do is kick her out of the group chat. As Klein thought this, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, but then quickly froze.

No, they all came from across time.
Two whole houses, how come he is so rich? ! !
