171 Gift

"What?" Ebner was shocked. He thought he had taken the information about the Devil wrong.

At this moment, Daly only took out the invitation card that she had given her from the information. Then, she said with a teasing smile, "I was just joking when I saw this stuck inside… I didn't expect it to touch the truth?"

"This isn't funny at all… Madam Daly," Ebner said helplessly as he touched his forehead.

"Alright, I'll accept this invitation. Heh heh, you're quite lucky. I happen to be free on Wednesday night." Daly's eyes darted around as she put away the "Devil" document and said.

In fact, because the Mandated Punisher elite from the Thunder Cathedral arrived a day later than expected, the plan to leave for Tingen on Wednesday was postponed until Thursday… However, the reason for this was not explained to Ebner.

…

Empress Borough, in Earl Hall's luxurious villa.

An abnormally cruel murder happened near Saint Samuel Cathedral in North Borough. The victim's death was extremely terrifying… Audrey, who had finished her lunch, casually flipped through the Backlund Evening News in the activity room.

Upon hearing his daughter's whisper, Earl Hall shook his head and sighed.

"It's said that this is the sixth such case, but the police and official Beyonders have no clues."

Upon hearing her father's words, Audrey wished she could transform into a detective and bring Susie to capture that detestable fellow. However, she knew that it was impossible. She could only turn to ask, "Where's that Hero Detective? Doesn't he have any clues?"

Earl Hall, who had a beautiful mustache, chuckled and said, "If every tricky case is solved by a detective, how do you think the police will feel?"

"The police deliberately didn't let Detective Bryan join the investigation of this case? How could they do that? That's a bunch of lives!" Audrey immediately frowned and said angrily.

"My beautiful princess, you have to believe in the police's abilities. When they get serious, they might not be worse than that Hero Detective… Furthermore, the Goddess's guards have already joined the investigation." After Earl Hall said that, he tapped his chest four times.

"Praise the Lady." Audrey also drew a crimson moon on her chest.

After lunch, Audrey returned to her room. After finding an excuse to dismiss all the maidservants, she looked at the gifts that Annie had recommended and said to Susie worriedly,

"Susie, do you think this waist made of pure silver is better hung, or that three wreath-shaped headdress looks better?

"Or this feathered hat?

"Gosh, I think that gemstone accessory is beautiful too…"

Susie wagged her tail and answered straightforwardly, "They taste very hard when they bite."

Following that, it saw Audrey's expression collapse as she tilted her head and said, "Since you can't choose a suitable one, why don't you give it all away?"

Audrey's eyes lit up when she heard that. She thought to herself, That's right. Why should I worry about this? I'll let Mr. Tower choose it himself! It's not worth much anyway.

With this in mind, she immediately gave Susie a look. The latter had a tacit understanding and ran out to guard the door without any verbal communication.

As for Audrey, she locked the door and sat by the bed, chanting Mr. Fool's honorific name.

"The Fool that doesn't belong to this era;

"You are the mysterious ruler above the gray fog.

"You are the King of Yellow and Black who wields good luck.

"I wish to pray to you and express my request.

"I wish to hand over the items I promised Mr. Tower to him."

After waiting for a few seconds, a dark red light surged out in front of her. Following that, she saw the boundless gray fog and the majestic and mysterious figure behind it.

"I understand."

As the calm and solemn words sounded in her ears, the phenomenon in front of Audrey's eyes vanished as she returned to her room.

Mr. Fool responded so quickly! With that in mind, she quickly set up the altar and placed all the gifts into a luxurious-looking bag.

…

Above the gray fog, Klein, who was reading through the information regarding the Antigonus family, couldn't help but click his tongue when he checked the gift that Miss Justice had "sacrificed."

Although he couldn't recognize the brands, he could tell from the style that they weren't cheap. Some of the premium products were definitely worth more than 10 pounds…

And Miss Justice actually planned on giving such a precious item to Tower? How rich!

…

At Isengard Detective Agency in Hillston Borough.

Just as he returned from the North Borough, Ebner received a notice that Mr. Fool was receiving items. Therefore, he returned to his room, created a wall of spirituality, and began the "bestowment" ritual.

As the "door to the kingdom" opened, a handbag covered with a feathered hat landed in front of him.

"So many?" After ending the ceremony, Ebner opened the handbag and was dazzled by the various accessories inside.

He played with the head accessory, front accessory, and waist accessory in his hand for a while before deciding to hand over the power of choice to Cullen.

Following that, he set up the ritual again and recited in ancient Hermes,

"Me!

"I summon in my name:

"A spirit that wanders between life and death, a friendly friend that can be driven, a messenger that belongs solely to Cullen Tia."

As the surrounding temperature dropped, Ebner saw an illusory, silver-winged bird emerge from the void through his Spirit Vision.

As soon as it landed, it looked at Ebner before turning its head to look at the handbag that was only three meters tall.

Ebner immediately unscrewed the cap of the bottle of Amantha extract he had prepared and placed it in front of the little bird, Silika.

"Silika" let out a few "happy" noises and sucked the extract into her mouth. Then, she flapped her wings and expanded her illusory wings, firmly wrapping the handbag and hat inside.

When it was done, it tilted its head and chirped at Ebner a few times before wrapping itself around the handbag and disappearing.

Seeing that Silika had successfully taken away the gift, Ebner released his spirituality seal.

After tidying up the ritual items in the room, he pushed open the bedroom door and saw Shoko, who was temporarily staying at his teacher's house, walk over.

"Are you feeling better?" Ebner asked, slightly concerned.

"Thank you for your help. The toxins have been completely removed." Shoko thanked him gratefully before turning to Ebner with a solemn expression. "Detective Bryan, I have something to tell you."

Abner nodded and let him into his room. He made a cup of coffee and brought it to him. "What's the matter?"

"Lena… She wishes to deliver this necklace to you!" Shoko said as she took off the necklace with five gems embedded in it.
