"I think I should know more about this Mrs. Augen."
Kieran who was sitting in the passenger seat turned his body around and asked Teresa.
"Anne Aldrich Augen, her original name was Anne Reid. When she was 15, she was adopted by the philanthropist of the Aldrich family and changed her name to Anne Aldrich. Three months after Anne Aldrich changed her name, the philanthropist died in an accident and left her a huge fortune."
"Then, she married a wealthy merchant in Macon state and three months later, the wealthy merchant died in an accident as well. Then, she married her second husband, a manor owner in Macon state and he died in an accident three months later … Before Anne Aldrich became Mrs. Augen, she married a total of five times and each time, her husband didn't live past three months before all sorts of accidents happened to him."
As she spoke, Teresa's face started to show disgust.
After a deep breath, Teresa suppressed her subjective emotions and narrated the story objectively again.
"After her husbands died in all sorts of accidents, Anne Aldrich's wealth increased by more than ten folds. She was also known as the Black Widow by the people. The police had investigated the Black Widow more than once and I was one of them but she didn't have any flaws. It was until Symede Augen that the rumors slowly stopped. Both of them were married for almost a year but now, it seems like Mrs. Augen just delayed her husband's death."
After saying that, Teresa could no longer hold back her anger. She punched the seat in front of her.
Bang!
The tremendous rebounding force made Hoskin who was engrossed in the story shiver.
"Chief, I think you can choose the other side."
The young officer smiled bitterly.
"I think your face is more suitable!"
Teresa glared at the young officer before she asked Kieran, "Anything else?"
"I met a very powerful fighter at Anne Aldrich Augen's place …"
"Do you have any impression of him?"
Kieran asked after briefly describing the fighter's face.
"No!"
"I only came into contact with some Grandmasters of Combat when I was undercover because of Zaigen … The world they live in is completely parallel to the world we live in. It's very difficult for ordinary people to come into contact with them."
Teresa thought about it carefully and shook her head.
"2567, how was the fighter you ran into compared to Zaigen?"
Hoskin, on the other hand, was paying attention to another aspect.
Teresa was also curious when she heard the question.
Although Zaigen was dead, Zaigen's power left a deep impression on Teresa, the kind that was almost indestructible.
"There's no way to compete!"
"Both of them are not on the same level. The fighter that I met could have killed Zaigen in an instant if he wanted to!"
Kieran said with certainty as he recalled how the Grandmaster of Combat appeared in front of him almost instantaneously and the strength of his hands.
Zaigen might be tall and strong, with rough skin and thick flesh.
But against that person, there was simply no chance for him to make a move.
As for the body that Zaigen was proud of, it wasn't any harder than tofu under the whipping of his opponent.
Gasp!
After hearing Kieran's answer, Teresa and Hoskin's face changed for the worse and both of them gasped hard.
To both of them, Zaigen's power and legendary status had reached a new limit.
Now that there was a person that could kill Zaigen in an instant, it was hard for both of them to accept.
As for Kieran?
Both of them unconsciously neglected Kieran after spending so much time with each other.
Kieran wouldn't emphasize his own power at this moment.
He wasn't that bored after all.
Besides, his attention wasn't on such trivial matters.
"I need the replicas of these recordings!
After that, we still need a reliable 'courier' to deliver the replica to Mrs. Augen's hands! "
Kieran pointed at the recordings that he got from Ryan Sulfose.
"You want to meet Anne Aldrich Augen?"
Teresa frowned, she wasn't sure what Kieran was trying to achieve.
"Yes.
I hope I got some information from Mrs. Augen. Don't worry, I know what I am doing.
Is there anything to eat around Hoskin?
What we need now is a good meal and a good night's sleep.
As for the other things?
Let's talk about it in the morning! "
Kieran then leaned back in his seat.
The young officer glanced at Teresa and after the latter nodded slightly, he started the car again.
The night flew by in a blink of an eye.
When the sun rose high in the sky and the hour hand pointed at 10, Carose Coffee House opened for business on time.
The waiter started to move out the signboard and the tables and chairs required for the outdoor coffee house.
A few minutes later, the customer appeared.
The waiter greeted the young man in casual clothes with a backpack on his back in a powerful manner.
"Good morning, sir.
What would you like? "
The waiter passed the menu to the young man as he spoke.
Carose Coffee House welcomes you.
Recommendation: Charcoal Coffee -15
Pure Coffee -10
Morona Coffee -15
...
Simple Meal: Sandwiches -5
Fries -5
Beef Burgers (2 with orange juice) -12
...
(Extra: Free bread will be given every day between 2 pm to 5 pm)
Kieran wasn't a stranger to simple meals served in a coffee house.
He glanced over the price tag on the back of the menu and quietly calculated the amount of money in his pocket. Soon, he made his choice.
"Two burgers."
Kieran said it.
"Very well, please wait a moment!"
The waiter quickly jotted down the order in his notebook and nodded at Kieran with a smile before leaving quickly.
While the waiter was serving the food, Kieran was sizing up the bookstore diagonally across the street without anyone noticing.
Mecathy and Borjane Bookstore.
The bookstore that Gannett gave him was one of the three locations where the mystics would gather and it was one of the safer locations.
Of course, Kieran reserved his opinion of Gannett's words.
The bookstore across the street didn't look any different.
It had a double glass door with a 2-meter wide and 3-meter tall display window on both sides.
Inside the display window were the best-selling books of the recent period and in front of the glass door, there was a pile of blackboard and a pile of new books.
The pile of newly released books was pushed up in a structured manner.
On top of the blackboard was written: "Emily has just arrived!"
Through the open glass door, the interior was empty, there wasn't anyone worthy of Kieran's attention.
Of course, it might also be a cover up.
He had to get a closer look.
However, Kieran wasn't in a hurry to walk over.
He wasn't just here to observe the gathering spot of the mystics.
There were more important matters to attend to!
Soon, the waiter served Kieran's food.
Kieran drank half of the orange juice in one gulp before taking a bite of his burger.
The burger wasn't bad, the meat and vegetables were fresh and the sauce was enough. A single bite had a sweet and heavy taste.
The orange juice was mediocre.
It should be blended and not freshly squeezed.
However, since it was a free gift, Kieran didn't mind.
After Kieran finished half of his breakfast, a long luxury car stopped in front of Carose Coffee House's entrance.
After the chauffeur alighted from the car and opened the back door, a pair of crystal high heels appeared outside the car door, followed by a pair of slender and fair legs. When the long red dress was revealed, Anne Aldrich Augen had already become the focus of attention.
Kieran could feel it.
Following Anne Aldrich Augen's appearance, the waiter in the coffee house and the pedestrians on the street were stunned for a moment. Regardless of man or woman, everyone was astonished by her beauty and wealth.
