Mystery: The New Dark Emperor Arrives

Chapter 237 Elizabeth's Question

Backlund, Queens.

A "Becklund Daily" was spread out and placed on a soft stool.

Next to the soft stool, a golden retriever was lying on the carpet. It was reading a book spread out in front of it line by line, often stretching out its paws to turn the pages.

The beautiful girl stands in front of the French windows, staring at the flowers in a daze, as if thinking about something, the girl, the flowers, and the French windows form an excellent composition.

After a while, the girl Audrey suddenly said, "Susie, he lied."

Susie the golden retriever folded a corner of the page and closed the book: "Who are you talking about? Audrey."

Audrey pointed to the newspaper: "Mr. Hobert."

"Did he cheat on your feelings?"

Audrey smiled helplessly: "Susie, you should read less romance novels. Well, you can read some poetry anthologies, or the psychology textbooks I collected."

Susie stretched out a paw to press the romance novel in front of her: "Okay."

"I remember when I met Mr. Hobert for the first time, he said that he did not represent justice." Audrey said, "But he has been doing righteous things."

Susie picked up the newspaper on the soft stool, spread it out on the carpet and looked at it: "Oh, my God, he's in the newspaper again, and it's another very challenging case!"

"Yeah, his reputation will definitely suffer because of this." Audrey said, "I'm planning to launch a 'Justice League' party next week to see if I can help this gentleman with justice in his heart."

"That's a good idea, Audrey." Susie asked, "Can I join in?"

"Uh, I can't Susie for the time being." Seeing that Susie was a little disappointed, Audrey said, "If there is a chance in the future, I will recommend you to join the club."

192 Branca Street.

"Hobert!" Xio at the dining table shook the newspaper in his hand, "We didn't know you had done another big thing until we read the newspaper!"

Hobert smiled and said, "I never thought that this case would have such a great impact!"

This is true.

Fors said worriedly: "Hobert, although your speech in court was very inspiring, the gentlemen and ladies of Backlund should be more concerned that you are defending a street girl."

Xio also said, "Yes, there will definitely be people criticizing your motives behind your back."

Hobert poured the warmed milk into three cups: "Two ladies, sometimes we care about the opinions of unimportant people, and it's just to flatter them."

Xio and Fors felt that Hobert's idea was very fresh, and they listened carefully as they got up to serve the milk.

Hobert smiled and said: "I have figured it out recently, there is no need to care so much about the opinions of some unimportant people in our lives.

"On the other hand, Miss Emma, ​​the party concerned, regards me as the last hope. If I don't act, the defendant's bad behavior will not be stopped.

"Honestly, it feels good to be a hero."

The three of them were eating toast and drinking hot milk.

Hugh sighed: "Justice never goes out of date."

Hobert smiled: "I just did something that I think is right, and it has nothing to do with justice. Well, I'm not a person who advocates justice."

While speaking, he got up and put on his windbreaker: "I'm going to be late again, so I have to trouble you to clean up the tableware."

"No problem." Fors waved the toast in her hand: "After all, we enjoyed your toast and hot milk."

Picking up his cane, Hobert walked quickly to the law firm. When he reached the gate of the firm, he slowed down and entered his office in a seemingly unhurried manner.

After working until about ten o'clock, Jessica came to his office to report: "Lawyer Hobert, until now, I have taken four cases similar to Ms. Emma's."

Hobert nodded: "Let's deal with it for you, and come to me to discuss any problems that cannot be solved."

Jessica agreed, and just about to turn around, Hobert called her again: "I need your help with a private matter."

Jessica closed the office door and sat opposite Hobert: "You said."

"According to my observation, your friend Kelly should be a 'craftsman'?"

Jessica was taken aback for a moment, then remembered that she had given Lawyer Hobert a key ring before, so she nodded: "That's right."

"I want to entrust her to help me build a weapon." Hobart said straight to the point: "I hope you can help me facilitate this transaction."

"It just so happens that she also has something that she might entrust to you." Jessica said, "How about we find a restaurant tonight? Talk about it while eating."

"Not tonight, I have an appointment." Hobert said: "And the restaurant is not a good place to talk, let's talk in the office tomorrow. If you are worried, you can find a quiet place where you can talk at ease, I'll go find you."

"Then come to the office."

Hobert smiled and nodded, Jessica said goodbye and left.

In busyness, time flies by.

In the afternoon, Hobert was about to take a break, but Jessica handed over letters from Elizabeth and Selena.

Opening Elizabeth's letter, she exchanged some pleasantries first. She said that she occasionally had the same nightmare during this time, dreaming of a minotaur with golden antlers.

She had a similar experience before, and she got out of that continuous nightmare with the help of a friend, but now that friend is gone.

Elizabeth went to the "Seer's Club" to find other fortune-tellers for help, but none of the suggestions given by the other party had any effect.

Then Elizabeth discussed the topic of fortune-tellers in the letter. She said that she had known a gentleman who really understood occultism before, which gave her a new understanding of occultism.

After contacting the fortunetellers during this period, she found that there seemed to be two types of fortunetellers, one was very accurate in divination, and rarely explained symbolically.One kind of explanation is always doing some symbolic meaning, which makes people more and more confused.

She asked Hobert how to distinguish these two kinds of fortune tellers?And ask Hobert if there is a solution to this problem?
She finally talked about Melissa. She invited Melissa to Backlund to relax, but Melissa did not agree.

Hobert held the letter and thought in his heart: "Elizabeth's spirituality seems to be a little higher than normal people, and through observation, she can vaguely perceive the difference between a real 'Seer' and an ordinary one.

"It may be because of her higher spirituality that she recalled some memories hidden by the 'psychological spoon' in her unconscious sleep."

Then Hobert thought again: "The gentleman she mentioned who really understands occultism should be Klein!"

He remembered that Mr. Ke helped Elizabeth solve an incident haunted by evil spirits.

After thinking about it for a while, Hobert wrote back to Elizabeth, telling her that he could solve the nightmare problem she encountered, but he had to solve it face to face.

He advised Elizabeth not to go to a fortune teller for interpretation, because it is difficult to meet a real "expert" in daily life.

Finally, he talked about Melissa, and he invited Melissa's brother to come to Backlund as a guest to take a look at the "Bell of Order" and the Roselle Memorial Exhibition.
