Joint blockade? It's just that some Extraordinary disappeared after investigating the tomb. Logically speaking, the official should not react so violently...
And if the official purpose is really to investigate the incident of Amon's Mausoleum, the lady in front of me has no chance to escape...
Having worked with Karen, Judy and other "Desolate Ones", Abner knows very well what the official Extraordinary team is like. Extraordinary people are polite, after all, as long as they catch it, there is always a way to make the other party speak.
After thinking for a moment, Abner considered his words and asked, "Fanny, you were also at the party just now? Which bar is it? How did you escape?"
Fanny took a sip of the black tea that Abner had specially prepared by the servant, calmed down her panic, and then replied:
"After I got the 'Barbarian' potion formula you gave me, I have been frequently participating in various extraordinary gatherings these days, wanting to buy the 'Solid Unicorn Crystal of the Earth Rhinoceros'...
"The party just now was at the 'Dragon Tooth Bar', which is located at No. 22 Tucker Street in the bridge area near the Jorwood area... The level of this party is not low, and there may even be high-level Extraordinary people participating, so in MI9 And before the arrival of the 'Mechanical Heart', we got the news, and then we were able to evacuate in time...
"Well, my carriage encountered a team of 'Mechanical Heart' and MI9 before leaving that block...I recognize two of the members, so I can confirm their identities."
Hearing this, Abner interrupted: "You were not stopped or questioned?"
"No..." Fanny shook her head, now that she thought about it, she also realized that something seemed wrong, so she guessed hesitantly, "I borrowed my carriage from a friend. Here... maybe because they recognize the badge on the carriage?"
Although I don't know the identity of Miss Fanny, but I think it has something to do with the official. The status of her friend should not be low, and it may even be similar to Miss Emma...
But this is not the reason for the officials not to conduct inspections or stop the road for questioning... They let the Beyonders of the party leave so easily, which shows that the official goal is not with them at all, but the bar...or the bar Is there something nearby that they care more about!
"1-025"? Demon dogs? Or Qilingus? No, Qilingus doesn't have that much face yet, and the investigation of the Devil Dog is mainly followed by the "Nighthawks" and the police...
Could it be that the official "prophecy" or "divination" has reached the trace of "1-025", so it is deployed in advance? Used Arrodes?
Of course, there may be other cases that I don't know...
Thinking of this, Abner briefly talked about his guess with Fanny, only hiding his guess about the official target.
As for Abner's reasoning ability, Fanny is now very convinced, and she immediately felt relieved when she heard him say so.
But after relaxing, the young lady immediately felt that the clothes on her body were not very comfortable. She looked down and found that the cloth was already tightly attached to her body due to the rain, which made it more uncomfortable.
She pursed her lips, and said with some embarrassment: "Abner, can I take a shower at your place, hang clothes to dry...stay overnight?"
Abner followed her gaze and looked away. He was not embarrassed, after all, the lady's good figure had been admired by the other party when she tried on the "wolf armor"...
However, after hearing Fanny's request, Abner finally came to his senses. He hadn't noticed it just now, but now he faintly realized that he might be tricked by the other party.
Since Fanny can recognize the members of the official team, the probability that the other party will recognize her is not small! Even if the official has something to do and doesn't have time to pay attention to it, it is very likely that they will find out why this lady travels by car at night when they are free...
That's why she came to me instead of going to Emma, whom she trusts more? Is this using me as a shield? Afterwards, if you check it out, 80% of you will say that you have a private meeting with me, right?
Of course, it's not ruled out that this young lady found an acquaintance nearby without thinking...
Although he was speechless, Abner was not such a stingy person, and with his special status, the official would not trouble him for such a trivial matter, so he acquiesced to Fanny's request, nodded and said: " I will ask Mrs. Scudder to prepare a change of clothes and a guest room for you."
Besides, the rain outside is getting heavier, and the sound can be heard inside the house, so it is really not suitable to continue going out.
After that, he pondered for a while, and then hit the other party again: "This is not an example."
Regardless of whether the lady understood or not, Abner stood up and greeted Mrs. Scudder. Under the surprised eyes of the other party, he briefly talked about Miss Fanny's stay and asked her to help her prepare.
"Thank you for taking me in, Abner." Miss Fanny got up and bowed her skirt before following Mrs. Scudder to the guest room.
After making arrangements for the uninvited guests, Abner returned to the study on the third floor, intending to read a book for a while before going to sleep.
But as soon as he entered the study, he keenly noticed some incongruities, and he was shocked. You must know that the study room is connected to his secret storage room. Some mystical items, redundant spells, and Extraordinary materials are also sealed here. He has arranged a lot of ritual magic and spell traps here.
However, someone was able to bypass his arrangement without being discovered by him. The "ring of light" ring and the gloves of the "hand of wisdom" were also put on.
At this moment, black mist suddenly filled the study room, and then a pretty figure slowly appeared at the source of the mist. It was Jane Grant, a classmate Abner hadn't seen for a long time.
"Abner, it's me...hehe, why do we get so nervous every time we meet?" Jane looked at Abner who was still on guard, and joked with a smile.
That's your problem... who made you appear in the same way as a female ghost every time you come here, and always in the middle of the night...
Abner complained in his heart, looked at Jane carefully, and found that this lady had changed a lot from when she met in Enmat Port more than a month ago.
The hair is longer, and the color is even duller, and it is almost out of the category of "golden"... However, her temperament has softened a lot, and she is no longer as cold as before, which is a good change.
Seeing that the other party only looked at her and did not speak, Jane deliberately turned around and asked in a teasing tone: "Who is more beautiful, me or the lady who visited just now?"
You are more beautiful, but Fanny has a better figure.
After saying this in his mind, Abner shook his head, and instead of answering the question, he asked, "Jane, when did you come back?"
Jane didn't ask any further questions. She asked that question to eliminate the strange feeling that she hadn't seen for a long time, and to get closer, so she replied with a smile: "Backlund, who just arrived today, came to see you.
"I wanted to scare you by appearing suddenly, but I didn't expect me to hide it so well that I was noticed... You are really amazing."
After knowing that it was Jane, Abner no longer had any doubts about the ceremony he arranged being easily seen through.
After all, the core of all the arrangements in his study is the "Necronomicon" with strange powers, and Jane is obviously more familiar with this book, so she can easily bypass those traps.
However, Abner was even more curious about Jane's way of hiding himself. You must know that even his "pure white eyes" failed to detect the other's hiding place just now.
Since you haven't seen it, you can't "analyze", so you haven't learned it.
"Did you drive some kind of invisible spirit just now?" Abner asked somewhat unwillingly.
"It's a spirit with an extremely weak sense of existence. I borrowed some of its abilities...and it's here now." Jane covered her mouth and snickered.
Abner heard the words and checked carefully several times, but still found nothing, so he had to give up.
The efficiency of "pure white eyes" in "analyzing" spirit bodies is really low.
After secretly sighing, Abner and Jane chatted about their respective experiences during these days.
"You have experienced so many things in one month... No wonder you got the title of 'Hero Detective', although it sounds a bit watery now..."
Abner's experience made Jane sometimes worried, sometimes hilarious, sometimes angry, sometimes sad, and finally sighed.
Abner helped his forehead, and said speechlessly: "Now that you know the details, don't mention that title again."
"Those were not your original intentions, but from the results, from the perspective of those victims, you can afford the word 'hero'." Jane first affirmed Abner's words seriously, and then Turning the subject, he asked:
"Abner, you wrote to me about the tomb of the ancestors because of the Baron Conwa who was possessed by '1-025' and the 'Old John' with a very special internal structure in the small town of Conwa 'Hotel?"
"That's right... mainly because I feel that I seem to have some special fate with '1-025', maybe I will encounter it one day, so I want to know more about the person it possesses." Abner nodded, and said seriously.
Jane pondered for a moment, then said in deliberation: "As for the specific situation of that adventure, I can't tell you because I signed a contract with that big man... The only things I can tell you are the following...
"First, the tomb of the ancestors is not in the underworld, but in the depths of Calderon City in the spiritual world! The ruins in the Sea of Fury have a similar effect to the ritual building built by the baron in the small town of Kangwa. It's just that after the transformation of Emperor Roselle, the passage there is more stable and two-way.
"Hehe, even if the baron 'Kangwa' who may be my ancestor successfully completes the ceremony, allowing the built mausoleum to overlap with the tomb of Calderon City for a short time, he can enter but cannot exit..."
Rosell? He really entered the mausoleum of Jane's ancestors! In that case, the "Death" card is probably placed there... I just don't know if it is in Jane's hands or in Bernadette's hands... Well, it is probably the latter. She sent Jane to explore there. One of the purposes of placing the ruins is probably the card of blasphemy.
But sleeping in the depths of Calderon City? Could it be another backhand of "Reaper"? I remember that Roselle said in the original book when talking with Klein that the "Death God" might have other "foreshadowing"...
Just as Abner thought of this, Jane continued:
"Secondly, I guess that Mr. John who built the 'Old John' Inn more than a hundred years ago may have succeeded...because I found his body and spirit in the ancestral mausoleum... Hehe, the "Old John" The Necronomicon actually originated from him, and his diary was put together with that book. Some of the contents recorded in the diary are basically consistent with the 'Old John' you just mentioned.
"I guess that the hotel originally had more underground buildings, which were the main body of the ceremony, but it destroyed itself after a brief overlap with the ancestor's mausoleum.
"Thirdly, I failed to enter the main hall of the ancestor's mausoleum in the end, so I don't know the specific situation inside... I don't know who He is..."
I remember that the baron mentioned in his diary that he named his illegitimate son with Mrs. Austin "John". Could it be that the illegitimate son lived for hundreds of years and finally came here more than a hundred years ago? The best time, successfully entered the mausoleum... and finally died there because he couldn't get out?
Not necessarily, there are plenty of Loenian fathers and sons with the same name for several generations, and they may be descendants of the illegitimate son John.
In a flash of thought, Abner noticed Jane's address to her ancestor, so he repeated it solemnly: "His?"
"Yes! He! This is the only thing I can be sure of." Jane nodded heavily.
Abner was silent for a while, and didn't ask any more questions. He looked at the clock and found that it was almost twelve o'clock at night. Thinking that Jane had no home in Backlund, he turned to smile and said:
"It's very late today, let's talk tomorrow... Well, I can only wrong you for spending the night in the study..."
Jane is still wanted by the Church of the Storm~IndoMTL.com~ Her identity is not visible, so it is not easy to involve the Scudders, who are still ordinary people, and cannot arrange a room.
"It's okay, this is a very comfortable sofa in the study." Jane didn't care, the conditions at sea were much worse than here.
Afterwards, after secretly taking some food and drinks from the kitchen to the study, Abner said goodnight to Jane, and returned to his bedroom to prepare for rest.
But tonight seemed destined to be eventful. Just as Abner changed into his pajamas and was about to go to bed, there was a knock on the glass in the bedroom, and Xio's figure, drenched in heavy rain, was clinging to the outside of the window.
What happened today? Could it be that there are party girls in the correct interpretation of "Wheel of Fortune"?
Abner couldn't help complaining, and then had to get up from the bed resignedly, opened the window, and let Xio in.
"Abner, I was urgently recruited by MI9! But I have a bad feeling."
