consecutive days, so it is considered fate.
Why don’t we chat and get to know each other later?” Abner thought.

Hugh also noticed Abner as he walked into the restaurant at this time.
Although she was a little vigilant, most of her energy was spent on interrogating the three gangsters.
Although the failure of her ability surprised her, her rich experience made her immediately change the method of inquiry to the “physical” method.

Following the screams of the three men, they finally couldn’t resist Hugh’s “majesty” and began to explain.
It turns out that these three people are Schick, a consultant hired by “Double-Faced Man” Rosen.

This consultant named Sigg is the “double-faced man” Rosen who took refuge with him about seven or eight months ago, and has won the trust of the other party.
He can mobilize most of Rosen’s thugs! He heard that someone was inquiring about the badge last night and immediately sent people to investigate.
Who would have thought that these three people would take it upon themselves to take Hugh back after seeing that she was just a little girl.

Their voices were not loud, but Abner, who had more insight than ordinary people, could hear clearly.
His brows furrowed instantly, and he instinctively analyzed and reasoned: “Badge? Could it be the extraordinary item that Hugh found? Used for contract fraud? If these three people are telling the truth, it seems that the key person in this incident is not that Rosen, but is more likely to be Schick! This person is likely to be an Extraordinary! Then the question arises, why should an Extraordinary serve as a consultant under a little gang leader? One possibility is that Rosen is a more powerful Extraordinary, making him surrender, but it doesn’t quite fit the facts.
The other possibility is that this Sigg is playing you! And if he is playing such a role, it’s likely that he is a Sequence 8 scammer.
Not only defrauding ordinary people, but also deceiving collaborators, and even misleading and deceiving potential investigators! Hey, thinking about it this way, it may not be true to say that people were sent here because of the badge… Well, I’d better remind her, just as an entry point for talking.”

Although these are just speculations by Abner without any obvious evidence, even if the reasoning is wrong, he can remind Hugh and let her be less in danger.
In the original book, she might just go to jail because of this case, but now she may not be really unscathed.
This girl is sometimes reckless.

On the other side, after interrogating the gang members, Hugh ordered the waiter to call the police from the street, and handed over the three to the authorities.
As the victim and a woman, she passed the test after being interrogated briefly for two or three sentences, and watched the three people be taken away by the police.

Just when she was about to leave the restaurant, she suddenly saw Abner coming straight over.
The other party smiled slightly and said, “Miss Arbiter, can I have the honor to buy you a cup of coffee?”

Hugh was clearly taken aback by being approached by someone for the first time, but on the surface she asked cautiously: “Who are you? What can I do for you?”
“I don’t really matter who I am, but I have my own opinions and inferences about what happened just now, which may be helpful to you.” Abner said straightforwardly, and there was no need to beat around the bush with someone like Miss Hugh.

Hugh was a little surprised when she heard this, but after a moment of hesitation, she nodded and sat down at a table again.
Abner took the opportunity to sit opposite her, and ordered two cups of coffee, two slices of bread, and a piece of butter under the reluctant gaze of the waiter.

While waiting for the meal, Hugh asked, “Are you an Extraordinary, too? An official? What do you want to say to me?”

Because of yesterday’s inexplicable induction, Hugh was actually very wary of Abner.

Abner shook his head, and said somewhat vaguely: “I’m not an official, but just a fan who knows something about extraordinary things… Just now I heard your conversation, and I heard some problems, and I want to remind you, miss.” He didn’t lie, so far he is not a real Extraordinary.

Hugh didn’t believe that the other party was just a lover, and concluded that he was an Extraordinary, and the sequence was still above her, but she didn’t point it out, and instead asked directly: “What do you want to tell me?”

“I understand that it’s just that ordinary gangsters got a special item and used it to do evil.”

Abner didn’t make a fool of himself either.
After sorting out and polishing his previous reasoning, he explained it to Hugh in detail.

Hugh was a little confused, and asked suspiciously: “Con artist? Impersonation? What does this mean?”

“So you don’t know how to impersonate…” Abner patted his forehead and thought: “Negligence.
It’s true that Hugh doesn’t know how to act.
It was taught to her by Fors after she joined the Tarot Society.
But forget it, anyway, she has been playing the ‘arbiter’ unconsciously, so it’s okay to tell her in advance.”

“What’s the acting method?” Hugh didn’t know why, but only felt that he was a fake Extraordinary.

Abner thought for a while, imitating the tone of the fool in the novel who confuses members of the Tarot Society, and said: “For potions, it’s not mastering, but digestion.
It’s not digging, but acting.
The name of the potion is not just a symbol, but an image.
It is the ‘key’ of digestion.”

After finishing speaking, Abner didn’t want to explain further, so he changed the subject and said: “If my inference is correct, this matter is obviously beyond your ability.
You’d better find an opportunity to report the clues to the official transcendents.
With their expertise, I’m afraid they can see more problems.
Reporting is the special skill of the future Lord of Mysteries, and I don’t mind using it in advance…”

Hugh wanted to ask a few more questions about the acting method, but it can be seen that Abner is unwilling to say more, so she can only purse her lips and ask again: “Sir, why do you help me and tell me this knowledge and deduction?”
