Start with the Readers Chapter 186: The Banquet and the Curse
Through his thoughts, Abner nodded and said: "Although I can't pray for power from the Eternal Blazing Sun, I can design a ceremony and use the ability of the 'Ring of Light' ring to enhance the effect of exorcising evil spirits...but I have what I have on hand There are no metals and flowers in the 'sun' field, so I have to wait until tomorrow to buy..."
Actually, with Abner's current ability, holding the exorcism ceremony is far less troublesome, but he has to wait for Klein to respond to Xio's "prayer" and determine the "crimson star" that belongs to her before proceeding with the exorcism ceremony.
Otherwise, if he really "drives" off the connection, wouldn't his work be in vain?
Xiu had no objection to this, and only said: "Then Forsi and I will come and look for you tomorrow at noon."
"You can temporarily stay in this villa tonight, and if something happens, I can help you in time." Abner suggested after thinking about it.
He was mainly worried that after Klein responded to Xio at night, Xio would react excessively in fear. Wouldn't it be bad if she reported the name of "The Fool" to the church or MI9?
Although Klein, the "Three No Evil Gods" who has no believers, no organization, and no doctrine at all, would not care about such reports, but such a move may make Xio lose the opportunity to join the Tarot Society.
Hearing Abner's words, Hugh thought about it seriously. She didn't feel shy about living in Abner's house. After all, they lived in a suite on the boat to and from Damir. It is much closer than the guest rooms of the villa...
The reason why she hesitated was because she was concerned about whether that mysterious being would also target Abner because of this.
However, after thinking about it carefully, Abner has always said that he is the favored person of knowledge, not to mention, he is also obviously favored by the Goddess of the Earth. With such a background, he should not be afraid of that mysterious existence...
Thinking of this, Xio gave a "hmm" and said, "I will talk to Forsi."
At this moment, Abner realized that he had been standing outside the door of the study room. He just wanted to open the door to enter, but was stopped by Xio who was blocking the door.
Abner asked strangely: "What's wrong?"
Xiu pursed her lips when she heard the words, and replied sheepishly: "Then... well, Abner, can you prepare another set of clothes? Well, clothes that Forsi can wear."
…
Because the Machts have rich experience in hosting banquets and have already prepared for some unexpected situations of the guests, several sets of ladies' dresses with a slightly looser size were prepared in the villa. Although it won't fit too well, as long as it is not too extreme, it can barely be worn.
In the banquet hall, Forsi, who had changed into a long beige x-shaped dress, took a plate, took a small cucumber sandwich, took a bite, and gave Abner, Hugh, Roman, and Susan in front of her Half joking and half expressing my true feelings:
"The shape of the banquet dessert seems very unique, whether it is carrot cake or cream muffin..."
Hearing this, Abner glanced at the other side of the long table, Hazel who was following Bishop Utravsky, and explained: "It is said that Miss Hazel made it herself. I was very pleased with this, so I put these desserts on the table next to the dinner and shared them with everyone."
"Hazel?" Fors followed Abner's gaze, and immediately recognized the lady who wanted to steal her bracelet at the "Daily Observer" headquarters ball.
So it was her... It is said that her right arm was cut off by Abner? Forsi looked at the long glove on Hazel's right side, and nodded thoughtfully.
Because Abner was surrounded by four young and beautiful ladies, he received quite a lot of attention, and Portland Mormont, the principal of Backlund Technical University who happened to hear their conversation, suddenly laughed and turned to his side Mr. Macht said:
"This doesn't sound like the Hazel I know."
Machine Macht smiled at his wife and said with satisfaction:
"Everyone grows, doesn't they?
"Hazel has really matured a lot recently, and this is all thanks to Bishop Utravsky!"
Chairman Macht has turned from a firm believer in the goddess to a "half-giant bishop blow"?
Abner complained in his heart, just as he was about to pick up a staple food, he saw Ms. Daly without makeup walking towards him with a smile.
"This is the meal reimbursement for you, 'Hero Detective'." Ms. Daly took out an envelope and handed it over without much nonsense.
Abner subconsciously took it and counted it, and found that there were ten 10-pound banknotes.
"Is this... too much?" The big meal was obviously only more than 50 pounds.
"The extra is the intelligence fee from Sesima. He is very satisfied with the service you provided." His eyes moved slightly, and he laughed again:
"You don't seem to realize the seriousness of the matter? Detective."
"What?" Abner asked in a daze.
"Counting me, there are now five ladies by your side... A few well-known reporters have come here today, and I'm afraid that tomorrow your reputation as a 'heroic detective', romantic and fraternal, will be published in the newspapers. Well, especially I gave you the money back, I don't know what fanciful stories they will make up." Daly said with a half-smile.
Abner was startled when he heard the words, he turned his head, looked at Xio, Fors, Roman, Susan... and thought: Daly's words seem likely to come true!
Do you want to give those reporters a group hypnosis immediately? Although I haven't learned this ability yet, I can pray to "Knowledge and Wisdom" to make amulets.
"Hehe, you're serious! Don't worry, I came to you and gave you an envelope, only the bishop and the two little girls behind you can see it." The corners of Daly's mouth curled up a little Got up, shook his head and smiled.
"Ma'am, I have to admit, your joke almost made me want to silence it." Abner breathed a sigh of relief and said helplessly.
"If you really take action, then you will probably have to enjoy the tenderness of the Nighthawks under the Church of St. Samuel tonight." Daly smiled at Abner and said.
…
Tingen, West End.
At this time, the sky was completely dark, and the dark clouds also covered the crimson moon.
A two-story gray-blue house on the banks of the Tussock River seemed to be hidden in this dark shadow. It was extremely quiet, with no sound coming out. It seemed that there were no reptiles or life.
Klein watched such a scene, his palms were sweating, and his body was trembling.
He felt that countless terrible things were hiding there, waiting, waiting for a **** feast.
Soon, he vaguely heard a violent wind, and clearly distinguished the gunshots.
After a few minutes, he heard singing from the target building again.
It was a folk tune that Leonard often hummed, full of vulgar sentences, and it was also a signal for the rendezvous that he had agreed with Dunn and the others!
But just after taking two steps, Klein suddenly paused, and then untied the silver chain in his cuff, allowing the citrine pendant to fall naturally~IndoMTL.com~The singing just now was an illusion. "
…
After silently reciting seven times, he opened his eyes and saw the pendant turning counterclockwise.
"It's not an illusion..."
Klein put his heart back in place, and quickly walked into the house.
Then he saw that beside a destroyed altar, Dunn put down a puppet, turned around, and said to himself:
"This is a terrible curse ceremony. Fortunately, we have destroyed it... This puppet is the one who cursed you, and you can use it to channel spirits."
Finding that he was no longer a burden, Klein raised his head subconsciously and said:
"Yes, Captain."
But after he finished speaking, he came back to his senses, and then looked around, only to find that each puppet beside the altar had a different name and corresponding information on it.
"Who else is cursed besides me?" Klein asked subconsciously.
"And me and Leonard...the rest are survivors on the Clover." Dunn said after a moment of silence.
The survivors of the Clover...was Tris the Instigator? No, according to the information about "Witch" given by "Tower", she should be called "Triss" now!
Klein thought of this, and just as he was about to report to the captain, he heard the latter say in a mellow voice:
"Before Daly encountered a terrifying witch in Backlund, but she and the 'Detective Hero' killed him together... and then Daly wrote to me specifically, telling me an important piece of information— —The name of the witch path sequence 7 is 'witch'!"
