Red Rose Manor, a luxurious room filled with various antiques.
Klein stood at the door and asked about the sixth maid encountered today.
The young maid wears a black and white maid skirt with era characteristics. She looks good and young, she is full of youth, brown hair has some natural rolls, and is a little playful.
"Who will Mr. Talim contact when he comes here?" Klein repeated his previous question numbly.
The maid replied almost without pause:
"Mr. Talim usually asks the Prince Your Highness, or accompanies him to ride a horse, or discuss things. If the Prince Your Highness does not happen to be, he will meet the lady. They are very good friends, and they have been allowed by the butler.
The civilian girls whom Talim and Edsac princes like are good friends? From time to time meet privately? He should be persuading the other person to leave here, so as not to affect the reputation of the prince ... Klein nodded thoughtfully:
"They, I mean, what will Mr. Talim and the lady talk about?"
When asking this question, Klein reminded you of Talim's fall in love like before. With the rich "experience" from the information era, inexplicable brains made up a **** story.
The maid did not fear great detective, smiled, shook her head and said:
"At this time, we will all be invited out of the room."
This ... Klein is increasingly unable to restrain himself from starting associations, and even thinks that Edsac's top hat and helmet item should be changed to a different coating.
Wait for him to ask again, the maid chuckled lightly:
"Detective Moriarty, if you want to find out what the lady and Mr. Talim talked about specifically, you can ask her directly."
"The old housekeeper doesn't allow it." Klein launched the shield against the arrows boldly.
He smiled instead:
"You seem to know more than the previous servants, and even know how to call me Detective Moriarty."
The maid looked around and smiled:
"Because I rotate to serve the lady, she always wanted to see you Detective Moriarty. After all, she and Talim are good friends and care about his death.
"Unfortunately, she always misses you."
"Always?" Klein is very sensitive to the words 'always', 'coincidence' and 'missed'.
The maid nodded seriously:
"When Prince Your Highness invited you as a guest for the first time, she deliberately lost her temper and wanted to take the opportunity of walking downstairs to meet you. Who knows, you left in a hurry.
"After that, she offered to replace the prince Your Highness and lay flowers in front of Mr. Talim's tomb, but because she didn't know your appearance, she couldn't find you.
"And today, she happened to go to the back of the golf course to ride a horse and relax, otherwise, even if the housekeeper does not allow, she will find a way to meet you."
What a coincidence ... Klein just sighed, and suddenly grasped a key point:
On the day of Talim ’s funeral, it was the civilian woman he loved to present flowers instead of the prince!
And the one that Klein was most concerned about that day was the lady with the black veil on her face and wearing the sapphire ring. The other party is likely to be pregnant with 0 level sealed item, or it is a powerful presence at the same level!
Between Huo Ran, the Klein flashed back the picture at that time:
The woman wearing the sapphire tail ring wore a heavy black dress, accompanied by two maids, and gradually went away ...
One of the two maids has natural brown curly hair ...
The image of the maid quickly overlapped with the maid in front of Klein.
Klein's's body tightened violently, the sweat of the vest dripping out, but his expression did not change at all.
Using Clown's ability, he made memories and asked with a smile:
"Did you follow that lady on the day of the Talim funeral?"
The maid responded indifferently:
"Yes."
... fuck, it's really her! Klein keeps smiling:
"Very good, the next question."
As if nothing had happened, he asked about other things step by step, and then changed to a servant to continue.
However, Klein secretly shortens the process and speeds up the progress.
He is going to rob the Red Rose Manor before the lady returns!
At four o'clock in the afternoon, when it was still dark, the Klein resigned much earlier than expected, and returned to the city in a carriage sent by an old housekeeper.
Sitting in the car window and leaning against the wall wrapped in silk, cotton, etc., he is finally relaxed, and he has the power to relive the whole thing:
The man who killed Talim was the beloved civilian girl of Prince Edsac ...
Why should she deal with a broken noble descendant and take revenge on Talim for breaking up her and the prince?
However, there is no need for her to do it herself. Find a chance to shake this thing out of bed. Prince Edsac has a way to make Talim disappear silently ...
Talim was completely in a state of love before death, um ... the first sign appeared after he successfully persuaded the civilian woman to leave Prince Edsac ... they had adultery? So, the civilian woman who was brought back to the manor in order to eliminate the hidden danger, cursed and killed Talim?
Logically makes sense, but the question is, how can a big brother with 0 level sealed item or expert at the same level be restricted by the prince Edsac? Even if Augustus is Angel family and has enough accumulation, it must use tremendous power and adopt special methods to be imprisoned. This is not something a prince can do ...
Moreover, how could such a character be regarded as Talim?
Why does she always want to see me? Have you noticed that I use grey mist to spy?
No, if so, I was buried on the day of the Talim funeral ... In addition, when she first wanted to see me, I did n’t get the flesh, hair, and item, and did not do any divination!
Klein thought puzzled, and finally decided to bury the problem in his heart, not to explore, not to investigate!
I hope that Heart of Mechanics has my previous reminder and can find that the royal family attaches extraordinary importance to this matter. Yes, their importance may not be for the reputation of Prince Edsac, but for another reason! I hope that the royal family will continue to restrict the lady and prevent her from visiting me ... In a few days, when the time is right, I will surrender this task and express my powerlessness, and then use the excuse of going to the south to change my identity. Avoid for a while! Klein's gradually calmed down.
…………
The dusk of Beckland will always be replaced by dim clouds and light rain. The body and spirit are quite tired. Klein presses half-height silk top hat by hand, slightly buries the body, and walks quickly through the wet streets. The gas street lamp returned to 15 Minsk Street.
Slightly do Quinn, taking advantage of the dim environment, he walked back four steps and entered above the grey mist.
After he was promoted to Sequence Six Faceless Man, he always wanted to check whether there was any change in that mysterious space, but because he was too tired last night, he could not wake up in the middle of the night, and he was "busy" outside during the day, so he could only wait until now.
In addition, Klein has to rule out interference, divination one thing.
That is, after this promotion, when spirituality is not stable, he no longer hears the unreal whisper of "Honages ... Flegrea ... Honages ... Flegrea"!
He wanted to find out whether this was a natural change after ascending to Sequence Six, or there were other reasons.
In the majestic grand palace, the mottled bronze long table and the 22 Zhang high back chair with different symbols on their backs stand quietly, seemingly unchanging.
The grey mists below them, and the endless emptiness around them, are the same.
But as soon as Klein entered here, spirituality intuitively discovered that the mysterious space was slightly different from the past.
He was not eager to explore and try, he calmed down his emotions, sat down to the top, wrote a pen and paper, and wrote a divination sentence:
"The reason why I did not hear raving words after I was promoted."
Holding paper in his hand, chanting a sentence, Klein leaned against the back of the chair, and quickly entered the dream with the help of meditation.
In the sky and the ground of grey mist, the pictures flickered, and they were finally fixed on a scene.
It was Klein when his face and body were still covered with light-colored granulation. There was a layer of illusory, thin, and gray haze that no one could detect.
Dream breaks, Klein opens his eyes, roughly understand the reason:
"grey mist is intertwined with reality, helping me to block the babbling from nowhere ...
"After being promoted to Sequence Six, my connection with the mysterious space above the grey mist has become closer, so it has brought some changes, and I can naturally use a little power?
"At present, this should be the case.
"Well, try to explore the surroundings to see what has changed."
Klein slowly got up and followed spiritual sense to a direction outside the ancient palace. At the foot of it was grey mist spread like sea water.
I did n’t know how long I walked until he wanted to stop. When I gave up exploring, there was a flash of light at the end in front of me.
Klein has a happy heart, speeds up the pace, and moves closer.
After 7-8 seconds, he saw a ladder, a flight of steps that seem to lead to Heaven!
The ladder is condensed by pure light, sacred, transparent and clear, which can shock everyone's soul.
The stairs extend into the void above, and there are only four floors, each of which is quite high, like for the living creature, which is larger than the giant.
Klein looked up in its direction and saw a layer of gray mist. They were condensed in the air and seemed to be holding something, and there was still a certain distance between the ladder of light and there.
Four steps, it means I have finished drinking magical medicine of Sequence Nine, Sequence Eight, Sequence Seven and Sequence Six? What is above that layer of mist? Klein proceeded cautiously, came to the stairs of light, and stepped on the stairs.
The steps are not weird, they look solid like stone.
Klein followed the stairs, climbed up and down to the fourth floor, and then tried to look over the gray mist. Unfortunately, his eyes couldn't penetrate.
He thought about it and jumped forward two steps.
However, as soon as he left the ladder of light, he lost the upward momentum and the instinct to fly spiritual body, and fell straight down, stepping on grey mist as bottom level.
It seems that you have to upgrade two to three sequences. If Sequence Four is indeed a qualitative change, then I should be fine after half God and half human ... Klein looks at the top and judges.
