Start with the Readers Chapter 204: Ruins
Lighting? Is there anyone else in the library at this hour? Is it the administrator, or... a colleague who came here to "borrow" like me?
Abner was a little surprised in his heart. After thinking for a moment, he maintained his "invisibility" state and quietly approached the bright place on the second floor.
He needs to find out who is here, and when is the other person planning to leave... If the people in the library don't leave, then he should consider forcing them to sleep for a night.
However, he had just walked a few steps before he was forced to stop, because a lot of hidden warning runes had been placed at the stairway.
Is the person who lit the lamp and read a book on the second floor an Extraordinary? Abner frowned, and became more vigilant in his heart, carefully bypassing the traps that were unusually "obvious" in his own eyes, and stepped on the wooden plank of the stairs as if his body was weightless.
Who would have thought that just as he quietly climbed up to the second floor, he heard a girl exclaiming excitedly:
"Fanny, I found the record of that ruin..."
Before she finished speaking, she stopped abruptly, as if her mouth was covered by someone, and then, a deep female voice sounded: "Keep quiet, do you want to call everyone from Backlund University?" ? Also, don’t call out my name.”
"Don't worry, I not only planted a lot of traps on the first floor, but also arranged some tricks around the two of us to confuse the senses. The sound and light here cannot be heard or seen five meters away. "The girl said triumphantly before.
Upon hearing this, Abner carefully estimated the distance between himself and the two of them.
It's about ten meters away... Is that girl talking nonsense?
No, it should be because of my own peculiarities... Well, I have always opened the "Pure White Eye", so her so-called small tricks did not work at all, just like Detective Zreal's "Blinding Eyes" back then .
Thinking of this, Abner moved closer to the bright place, and stopped when he almost entered the so-called five-meter range.
The "invisibility" ability of the witch he simulated is not perfect, at least not being able to hide the shadow is a big flaw, so he didn't get too close.
However, at this distance, Abner could not only see the faces of the two girls clearly, but also barely distinguish the words on the books in their hands.
These two girls don't seem to be very old. The one named Fanny is about 20 years old. She has beautiful chestnut shoulder-length hair. Her facial features can only be called very temperament, but her figure is extremely Excellent, even the loose black robe on his body couldn't hide it.
Another lively girl looked to be about the same age as Abner, with long black hair hanging down to her waist, long and straight eyebrows, a pair of extremely bright blue eyes, and the corners of her mouth were slightly hooked, as if she was always keeping a smile on her face. Playful smile.
And the books in their hands are old-fashioned, with a sense of age, but from Abner's perspective, they can only see a small part of them, as well as the name of the book "St. "Battle of the Oath".
Before Abner complained about the name, he heard the lady named Fanny ask in a very puzzled tone: "You are obviously a student of Backlund University, so you can be fair and aboveboard during the day. If you come to the library to borrow books, why do you have to sneak me in in the middle of the night?"
"I have a record of borrowing books during the day, which will definitely leave traces. If someone follows this clue, won't I be exposed?" The girl with long black hair flipped through the books while replied solemnly.
"Is this what you learned when you were a 'swindler'?" Ms. Fanny put down the book in her hand and teased deliberately.
"It wasn't that troublesome when I was a 'con artist'. Aren't those men all willing to send me up to deceive me?" The girl who was reading the book said without looking up.
"That's why you got the evaluation of 'weird temper'... Hehe, if it weren't for your family background, I'm afraid the label attached to your head would be even worse." Fanny stretched her waist, and then lay down in front of her table, joked with a smile.
"Labeling... I don't like what Emperor Roselle said, and I don't like people like him. I hope you can use more Loen-style words, thank you." The girl wrinkled her nose in dissatisfaction, and then put the book in her hand Spread it out on the table, point to a record on it and say to Fanny:
"Look, there are detailed records here. After the 'Battle of the Oath', a baron once established a manor there, but later, due to natural disasters, a mudslide flooded the manor and the surrounding villages... "
"I'm originally from Intis, why do I use Loen-style words?" Ms. Fanny first muttered something in a low voice, then she poked her head to look carefully, pinched her chin and said, "So you think that The ruins I accidentally discovered were left by this baron?"
"That's right, the military nobles of the 'Battle of the Oath' are very likely to be Extraordinary! And because of the sudden natural disaster, the Extraordinary items and other valuables in his collection must not be taken away in time, maybe they are still in it now .” The girl said beamingly, looking very excited.
"But it's also very likely to be dangerous... After all, we don't know the strength of that baron. Moreover, natural disasters came suddenly... This statement is too suspicious." Fanny frowned.
"Wouldn't it be better if there were dangers, or even mysterious events? As a 'cryptographer', it would be disappointing if it was really just an ordinary person's house." The book turned a few pages forward, and pointed again, "And, look here, it briefly describes the few battles that the baron participated in... But have you noticed? His opponents seem to be all Arrogant. People with low minds!"
"You mean...'Briber'?" Ms. Fanny's eyes suddenly burst into joy.
"That's right, maybe the 'barbarian' formula you need will land on this expedition." The girl who claimed to be a decryption scholar said with a smile.
"I'm going to make preparations now." Fan Niteng stood up suddenly, looking very urgent.
"Don't be so anxious, the ruins haven't been discovered yet... Besides, you also know that it's not easy for me to go out, even if it's boarding in a university dormitory... Well, I have to find a suitable reason." The girl with long black hair grabbed her companion who seemed to want to leave immediately, and said helplessly.
Since they found the necessary information, the two girls didn't stay long, picked up the "St. Augustine—The City of Hope: "Battle of the Oath"" they found, and quickly left the library .
And the long-haired girl with black hair who claimed to be a "cryptographer" cleared away the rune traps she set up when she went down to the first floor.
And they didn't notice Abner who was peeping from the side from the beginning to the end. ,
A "cryptographer" and a "lawyer"?
And the "lawyer" named Fanny is very familiar to me, very similar to the "craftsman agent" lady at the teacher's party ~IndoMTL.com~ I don't know where they found the ruins... ...
After thinking for a while, Abner put this matter behind him, and began to search the library for information about the Ramud family.
Although he was actually very interested in the relics that the two girls mentioned, firstly, they didn't tell the location of the relics, and secondly, he still had business to do, so he didn't have the time to follow up and investigate the identities of the two girls. , so I had to give up.
……
Blackthorn Security Company, Tingen City.
Dunn Smith was sitting in his office, drinking coffee while looking down at the documents.
It was already dark, and besides Leonard who was on duty at the Chanis Gate, he was the only one in the company who was still working with the lights on.
At this moment, Dun En's deep gray eyes widened suddenly, and the document in his hand fell to the ground... because he felt a body full of heat hugging him from behind.
And the aroma he smelled in his nose also allowed him to recognize who the person behind him was.
A moment later, Leonard, who was standing outside Chanis' door, frowned, as if he heard a small voice.
Just as he was hesitating whether to ring the bell, an old voice rang in his ear:
"I advise you not to be troublesome."
