Mystery: The New Dark Emperor Arrives

Chapter 139 Klein's Opponent
Hobert really wanted to continue the pursuit, but tears had completely covered his eyes, and an indescribable sadness welled up in his heart.

It may be because of using the ability of "Psychological Spoon" twice in a row, but this time using "Distortion" can't completely distort its negative effects.

After Archie entered the shadows, he moved very fast. He dragged his body, which had obvious signs of losing control, and quickly disappeared from Hobart's vision.

After more than half a minute, the sadness in Hobert's heart gradually disappeared.

Elizabeth seemed to have just woken up from a nightmare: "Mr. Lawyer, just now, was that just now? Why are you crying so sadly?"

"Nothing." Hobert said, "I just remembered some sad things."

He looked at Elizabeth helplessly, and used the ability of "hypnosis": "You'd better forget what happened just now."

Elizabeth forgot the memory after Achill appeared, and Hobert comforted her somewhat frantic spirit.

Using the ability of "Psychological Spoon" three times in a row made Hobert a little tired, and at this moment Elizabeth couldn't help laughing.

Hobert quickly twisted her smile.

Elizabeth smiled and said, "Mr. Lawyer, your strength is really great. You can support such a thick wood with one hand."

Her memory flashed back to when Hobert had just untied her.

Hobert breathed a sigh of relief: "I'm born with great strength. Two of your good friends are outside. Let them take you back first."

Elizabeth nodded obediently. She tried to get up, but sat back on the chair again: "Mr. Lawyer, I, I don't have any strength in my legs."

The creature after Achill's transformation just now put tremendous pressure on Elizabeth, an ordinary person, mentally and physically. Tiredness and weakness are normal phenomena.

But now that time was running out, Hobert had no choice but to pick Elizabeth up and walk downstairs quickly.

After being slightly surprised, Elizabeth actually found that Hobert's embrace made her feel safe. This thought made her a little shy, and subconsciously hid to the outside.

The carriage in which Melissa and Selena were riding was wandering around. After they heard gunshots, the coachman simply drove over in the carriage. If Hobert's rescue failed, it would be convenient for Hobert to escape.

When they saw Hobert coming out with Elizabeth in his arms, everyone heaved a sigh of relief.

Then Melissa noticed that Elizabeth, who was in the arms of the lawyer, was not very resistant to having such intimate contact with this man. After the lawyer put her in the carriage, she was obviously a little disappointed.

Melissa suddenly felt that something was wrong, Klein's opponent appeared!
The reason why Elizabeth had such a reaction was because she felt that she was very afraid of something in her heart, but she couldn't remember exactly why she was afraid. Only by Hobert's side could she feel safe.

"Send the three girls back first." Hobert said to the coachman, "Elizabeth needs to rest now, and by the way, report to the police that all the kidnappers have been caught.

"Well, I don't think they can escape for a while."

Those gangsters were either dead or maimed. When he went downstairs just now, those who fell into a coma hadn't woken up, and those who hadn't fallen into a coma were lying on the ground crying and howling, unable to move.

The coachman asked: "Sir, then you..."

"I have something else to do. Wait for you to send the three ladies to Dominique's company and wait for me at the Evernight Goddess Church." After speaking, Hobert walked quickly to the more crowded street to find a taxi.

Elizabeth looked at Hobert's distant figure in a daze. Why did she feel that this figure was so familiar?

"Elizabeth, are you okay?" Selina asked.

Elizabeth came to her senses: "Praise the goddess! I was rescued before the kidnappers finished writing the blackmail letter."

As she spoke, her tears couldn't stop streaming down: "I, when I was kidnapped, it was so scary, I still, I thought..."

At this moment, Elizabeth's shock and grievance came to her heart, and she finally had a chance to cry.

Fortunately, two good friends, Melissa and Selena, kept comforting her.

……

On the other side, after finding a rental carriage, Hobert came to the Church of the Evernight Goddess.

He let the carriage go around the street behind the church, and after searching for a few minutes, he finally found the Blackthorn Security Company.

I have to say that their signboard is so inconspicuous that I almost missed it.

After paying the fare, Hobert went up the steps to enter the interior of the security company.

In the foreground was a brown-haired, pretty girl who seemed to be reading a newspaper intently.

"Hello!" said Hobert.

The girl covered the newspaper on the table, but because she was a little flustered, she still revealed what was under the newspaper: a bestseller.

Hobert couldn't figure it out for a moment. Is there any difference between reading newspapers at work and reading novels at work?Why use newspapers to cover novels?
"Sir, may I help you?" The girl smiled to hide her panic.

Hobert took out the ID of his non-staff personnel: "I want to see your captain."

The pretty girl at the front desk is naturally Luo Shan.

Although she has never seen such a certificate, she still recognizes the Holy Emblem of the Night: "Please follow me."

Luo Shan led the way: "Sir, your accent doesn't seem like a local?"

"Yeah." Hobert followed behind: "I'm from Backlund."

Roseanne turned her head and glanced at Hobert: "'City of Hope'! Is the smog there really as severe as the newspapers said?"

"We don't usually read newspapers." Hobert said, "Because the fog is too heavy, we can't see the letters on the newspapers clearly."

Luo Shan covered her mouth and smiled lightly: "You are so humorous."

The captain's office arrived, and Dunn, who had heard Roshan's voice a long time ago, was already looking at the door.

"Captain, this gentleman from Backlund has something to ask you for." In front of Dunn, Rosanne finally showed her professionalism, and asked Hobert to exit and close the door after asking him to enter.

Dunn looked at Hobert: "Excuse me, are you..."

Hobert looked at the man in front of him with gray eyes, high hairline, and a low and gentle voice: "Hello, this is my ID."

The captain's appearance was a little rougher than he had imagined.

Dunn glanced at the ID: "Welcome, Mr. Hobert." He gestured for a seat as he spoke.

Sitting opposite Dunn, Hobert said, "While resolving a dispute, I met a member of the Aurora Society..."

Hobert briefly recounted the whole story of the kidnapping case and his encounter with Achill, and finally said: "Achille had clearly shown signs of losing control at that time, and according to the characteristics of the 'Secret Prayer' pathway, he could easily Completely out of control, even if he didn't completely lose control, it would take a long time for him to suppress the signs of out of control on his body.

"I think we should find him before he gets out of hand and control him! Or catch him while he's licking his wounds!

"Well, is there a 'Seer' in your team? I left clues on him that can be used for divination."
