Mystery: The New Dark Emperor Arrives

Chapter 268 The Big Secret Audrey Discovered

One minute before Hobert announced the start of the party, Audrey asked her good friend Coratie in a low voice: "Do you remember what Lawyer Hobert said to you in the room?"

"I don't remember." Coratti said, "I just remember that the smell of burning herbs was intoxicating, and then I became dazed. When I came back to my senses, Mr. Hobert said that it was all right."

Audrey smiled slightly, wondering what exactly Hobert did?Does it really work?

Immediately afterwards, she began to look at other members as an "audience".

After becoming a "mind reader", Audrey's observation skills have become much stronger, and she can already read a lot of information from the expressions of other people, as well as the details of clothing or movements.

She saw that Viscount Glaint seemed a little troubled, and seemed to be planning to do some consultation at the party later.

She saw some fear in Carl's eyes, and she didn't dare to look at Hobert. He still had injuries on his face. Did Hobert beat him like this?

She saw that Forsi's smile was more confident than before, but her lazy temperament remained unchanged.

She saw that Hugh was talking to Hobart, and the subtle expressions and movements shown by Hugh showed that she trusted Hobert a lot, and even had a little dependence on him.

When she saw the new members brought by Hobert, she seemed to have some admiration for Hobert, which she could see clearly in her eyes, but the new members were very wary of others.

Audrey was very satisfied with the improvement of her observation skills. Finally, she looked at Hobert who was sitting at the top. He still liked to wear trench coats so much, his smile was still contagious, and his movements and postures showed his confidence. etc……

Audrey suddenly noticed why some of Hobert's habitual actions resembled "Mr. Emperor" so much?

Although "Mr. Emperor" prefers to wear a shirt, which makes people feel more rigorous than Hobert, but Audrey recalled that when he first met Hobert, he was also wearing a shirt.

At that time, he felt very similar to Mr. Emperor!
The more she thought about it, the more Audrey thought of the commonalities between Hobert and Mr. Emperor, for example, they were both knowledgeable and reliable.

Audrey superimposed the figures of the two people, they were simply one person!

Audrey was somewhat surprised by her own idea, and almost couldn't maintain the state of "audience"!
At this time, Audrey felt confident that Hobert was Mr. Emperor!
She also thought that Hobert was the eldest son of Brigadier General Christine, and of course he could also join the mercenary club and have relevant channels and information, so the previous investigations were in the wrong direction.

Audrey quickly calmed down, she didn't plan to reveal this matter, because that would also expose her as "justice".

But she was very excited in her heart: Those who can join the Tarot Club are really outstanding people with a sense of justice in their hearts.

"Let's get started!" Hobert said at this moment. He glanced at Audrey and found that something was wrong with her, but he didn't think too much about it.

Hobert also imagined that Audrey might see through the disguise he had been making all this time. After all, this is what the "audience" is best at.

But what he didn't expect was that he would be seen through now.

Hobert smiled and said: "I reiterate that the 'Justice League' must be kept a secret. As for the consequences of not keeping it secret, I think you can consult Mr. Carl."

Everyone was taken aback. The members attending the meeting had long been curious about the injury on Carl's face, but this may involve privacy, so it's not easy to ask.

After being told by Hobert, everyone looked at Carl.

"I swear, I have no intention of actively leaking the secret." Carl quickly explained: "After I got the potion formula and main ingredients, I went to my father to verify it."

He smiled bitterly: "Father asked me where the formula and the main ingredients came from? I was about to speak, but I didn't know why, so I raised my hand and started slapping myself, and I couldn't hold it back."

Hobert smiled and said, "You must be answering 'Justice League', right?"

Carl smiled unnaturally: "My father has always been very dignified, it is difficult to lie in front of him."

This made the new members Jessica and Coraty surprised and worried, but Audrey nodded with a sense of security: This is what a mysterious organization looks like.

Grelint asked strangely: "Didn't you take the potion a long time ago? Why is the wound on your face still there?"

Carl's smile just touched the injury, he covered his cheeks and replied: "When I was going out, my elder brother asked me where I was going, so..."

He sighed: "Brother is also very dignified, and it is difficult to lie in front of him."

Forsi was even more curious: "Did you tell him that you came to the 'Justice League' party?"

Carl shook his head: "No, the slap was so heavy that I couldn't speak at all."

Everyone wanted to laugh, but they were too embarrassed to laugh.

Forsi asked again: "Then your elder brother didn't come with you, or sent someone to follow you?"

Carl replied honestly: "I wanted to come with me, but my father stopped me, and my father told me to seize the opportunity in front of me."

Hobert glanced at Greint. The young viscount immediately understood what Hobert meant. He opened his pocket watch and shook his head. The party at this moment was not under surveillance.

In other words, Karl's father regards Karl's current experience as a child's adventure. After all, in the Loen Kingdom, it is difficult for even the earl to obtain the main material of the "arbitrator" pathway.

As for the secret gathering of Beyonders in Backlund, there were 100 if not 80. Before Karl's life was in danger, Earl Vincent obviously didn't intend to take care of it.

Hobert said to Carl: "Fortunately, you didn't intend to betray the 'Justice League', otherwise you will definitely regret this decision."

Carl said quickly, "Of course I won't betray everyone."

Jessica, who was sitting behind Hobert, asked: "We will inevitably mention 'Justice League' to our friends. How can we avoid the same encounter as this gentleman?"

Hobert commented in his heart: It is very progressive, and through Carl's description, he found that there are certain loopholes that can be exploited, so as to avoid encounters like Carl's.

"Just use 'that organization' or 'that party' instead." Hobert said: "But if you want to reveal information about the members of the 'Justice League', or the secrets discussed at the party, there will also be Karl Same experience as Mr.

"To give you an example, you say to a friend: X was traded from 'that party'. That's okay.

"However, if it is more detailed, such as with whom the transaction was made, even a description of appearance will not do."

Jessica asked again: "What if it's someone I knew before? I knew Lawyer Hobert earlier than us. Should I avoid mentioning Lawyer Hobert's name in the future?"

Hobert was very satisfied with Jessica's question, which showed from the side that she already possessed a keen "concept of order", which is very important for Extraordinary people of the "Dark Emperor" path.

"It doesn't matter as long as what you want to express is not 'Hobert on Justice League', but 'Hobert's lawyer' you meet at work." Hobert further explained:

"Your own opinion is important, as long as there is an idea of ​​leaking, you will be punished. If you don't have such an idea, it doesn't matter."

Jessica nodded: "I see."

In this case, it will not have much impact on normal life.

Karl covered his cheeks and sighed: "Can it still be like this?"

Hobert thought to himself: I hope that the higher-order potions of the "Judger" pathway can make this kid smarter in the future.
