Hobert hadn't expected to run into Azik at all.
If he didn't know that Mr. Azik was a descendant of the Death, he would have suspected that Azik was an angel of the "Lawyer" pathway.
Hobert greeted him with a smile: "Sir, I didn't expect to meet you here."
Azik politely stood up and said, "Congratulations, young man, you seem to have found the true meaning of your abilities."
Hobert was slightly stunned, and immediately understood that the first time he met Mr. Azik in the cemetery, he had just taken the potion, and now the potion in his body had been digested by more than half.
Azik could almost see through his state at a glance.
Hobert smiled slightly: "I thought you were going to congratulate me on completing a very crucial victory in my career."
He asked knowingly: "Are you dining alone?"
"Yes."
"Can I share a table with you?" Hobert smiled and said, "My partners all have things to do and can't enjoy dinner with me, and it's too boring to dine alone."
He didn't have so many problems at all, he was just looking for a reason to share a table with Mr. Azik.
This is an angel walking on the ground, but his condition is not right, and he doesn't even know that he is an angel.
At the same time, he is also Mr. K's thigh, since Klein can hug him, why can't Hobert hug him?
Azik did not refuse Hobert's request.
So the two chatted, really just chatting, Hobert talked about his work.
Azik was a little surprised: "You are Hobert, that famous lawyer?"
Hobert often appeared in recent newspapers, and Azik had also seen his name.
The two talked about the workers in Backlund along this topic, and talked about the East Borough of Backlund.
After the meal, they were both a little unsatisfied.
But Hobert did not ask for Azik's mailing address, he knew that the process of contacting Azik should not be too hasty, it was just right to talk here today.
On the way back, Hobert also lamented the wonder of fate.
Back home, Xio had just returned, and she sighed while drinking tea: "Hobert, today I have a new understanding of a person's bad luck.
"Rafter is so miserable, he fell down the stairs and knocked out a front tooth. He had a dispute with someone in the casino, and as a result, because he was too excited, he stepped on a card that fell on the ground, and it is said that he broke his tailbone."
Xio shook her head: "I feel a little sorry for this guy, is he really as dangerous as the Masked Man said?"
Suddenly, Fors' voice rang from the restaurant: "Maybe these performances are just him pretending to deceive you?"
Hobert and Xio were startled, and turned to see Fors picking up a teacup to pour tea.
Hobert asked: "You, when did you come back?"
"Just now." Fors didn't understand why the two looked so bad.
Xio asked: "Why don't you go through the door?"
"Why should I go through the door? Directly to the kitchen, I can walk a lot less."
Hobert and Xio were speechless.
...
Backlund, Empress Borough, at Countess Wolfe's ball.
Through observation, Audrey knew that Bakerland was an old lecher, and his eye contact and physical contact with several ladies were not right.
In order to confirm her guess, Audrey chatted with him a few times, and also heard his blatant praise for her, and saw the annoying eyes.
Just after Audrey got rid of him, Conus, who also came to the ball, whispered: "Audrey, don't be confused by that ambassador, he is an old lecher! I don't know how many ladies he has tricked into bed."
Conus is the youngest son of Viscount Leerson, and has a good relationship with Audrey and Glaint.
"Conus, do you have some misunderstanding about me?" Audrey tried to maintain her elegance: "Goddess, how could I be confused by that ambassador? The perfume he sprayed made me want to vomit, his words were so dirty, his taste is like a male peacock."
"Your feeling is right." Conus showed a sincere smile, and said in a lower voice: "Moreover, Bakerland is a very dangerous guy."
"How dangerous?" Audrey asked curiously in cooperation.
Conus said with a solemn expression: "He is Intis' intelligence leader in the kingdom, and has done a lot of bad things, but we have not obtained useful evidence. He himself is Sequence 6 'Conspirator'."
He didn't have too much wariness about Audrey, and also knew that Audrey knew some mystical knowledge, so he directly told her that Bakerland was a Sequence 6, and Bakerland's Sequence 5 assistant.
He also told Audrey that Bakerland was very good at planning conspiracies and other information, which made Audrey gain a lot.
Just when the two were chatting, Audrey saw Ambassador Tim, who spoke softly, and she asked Conus: "Conus, I heard a friend mention that Ambassador Tim once sponsored a cult organization in South Wales?"
Conus was stunned: "Yes, these ambassadors are actually destroying the harmony of the Kingdom of Loen."
He asked: "We all know about this, but we haven't found any evidence. Can your friend provide evidence?"
Conus didn't intend to ask in detail about the channels through which Audrey obtained information, after all, Earl Hall was an earl who had achievements in politics and was well-informed.
"I'm sorry, he also heard it from others." Audrey asked again: "He also said that those cult organizations have been eliminated, right?"
"Yes, as far as I know, a mercenary team destroyed the headquarters of the cult organization and rescued five babies who were about to be used for sacrifice!"
"Fortunately, they were eliminated, which mercenary team carried out this righteous action?"
"The Iron Caltrop Team, they received the task from the Mercenary Club."
Audrey thought of the address of the Mercenary Club left by "Emperor" before, and the information matched. She said in her heart: Mr. Emperor, I am about to find you, but you have no clue about Miss Justice, right.
...
Blanca Street, Hobert, who was sleeping soundly, suddenly sneezed, which woke him up, and it took a long time to fall asleep again.
The next morning, when Hobert was having breakfast with Xio and Fors, Audrey's maid sent a letter, and Audrey asked Xio and Fors to meet at Viscount Glaint's mansion.
Fors was a little strange: "Didn't we just attend the Beyonder gathering of the Medical Academy? Why are you looking for us again?"
Hobert certainly knew that they were looking for them to entrust Mr. A to assassinate Bakerland: "Maybe there are other things."
He had to accompany Jessica to court at 8:30 today, and he had to accompany Rasga to court at 10:00. In the afternoon, he also wanted to visit Mr. Dico at 1899 Niccolo Street.
The day's itinerary was full.
After eating breakfast, Hobert left in a hurry.
On the other side, Xio and Fors received Audrey's commission at Viscount Glaint's mansion, and contacted Mr. A through their channels, but Mr. A did not appear directly, but his attendant asked in the reception room: "What can I do for you two?"
Fors said: "We want to talk to Mr. A directly."
"I'm sorry, Mr. A is not seeing anyone now." Although the attendant said "sorry", he didn't have any apology at all: "Telling me is the same, I will immediately convey it to Mr. A."
Xio said: "We brought a big deal: assassinating the Intis ambassador to the kingdom, Bakerland Jean Madan."
The attendant was slightly stunned: "Please wait a moment, I will go and convey it immediately."
He walked quickly to a dark room not far away, and a mass of collapsed flesh and blood in the room made Mr. A's voice: "What do they want?"
"They want to ask you to assassinate the Intis ambassador, Bakerland."
The mass of collapsed flesh and blood formed a human shape like a liquid, and the appearance vaguely resembled Mr. A: "Damn Nighthawks, let me miss a big deal! This is a great opportunity to promote the prestige of my Lord!"
