Upon hearing the newsboy's shout, Wiggins stood thunderstruck.
His eyes widened, mouth agape, disbelievingly turning his head.
He saw the smiles on Arthur's face.
Did Middel and Gite really have connections with the Earl of South Los?!
Although upon hearing about the new law 'the Adherent,' Wiggins had already grasped the critical point.
Even so, why was Malz able to confirm that the reclusive Lord Count would help?
What if the Lord Count refused?
After all, aside from collecting taxes, the Lord Count had previously been indifferent to the affairs of South Los.
More doubts surfaced in Wiggins' mind.
Then, Golden Finger reflexively looked up and once again gazed toward No. 2 Cork Street.
Arthur!
It must be Arthur!
It was Arthur who convinced the Lord Count to agree!
As for the method used?
Don't forget Arthur's identity!
Arthur is a 'Spirit Medium'!
Hiss!
