Start with the Readers Chapter 4: Get to know


The morning sun shone, and the crimson faded away. Looking at the golden yellow sprinkled into the room along the window, Abner thumped his somewhat stiff shoulders, and sat up.

He was in a good mood at this time. Although the continuous opening of the pure white eyes made his spirit a little bad, but after this night of hard work (in a coma), he finally completely analyzed the "Reader" potion formula come out.

"Reader, Sequence 9

Main materials: a pair of pupils of Galore fish, brain slices of Manhas monkey 15g

Auxiliary materials: 80ml of pure water, 10g of thread ball grass powder, 1 petal of pure white elf flower, 10 drops of calamus juice

"

Galore fish should not be a rare species. After all, even the original owner who is an ordinary person has heard of it, but he has never seen it. The pupils of this fish should not be difficult to get in the extraordinary circle... As for Manha Sihou, in the inherited memory, seems to be a monster in a horror story, but since the pure white eye has been analyzed, it means that this monster really exists... Well, go back and ask in the extraordinary circle.

As for where to find the Extraordinary Circle, Abner had already planned. After all, ever since he remembered the detailed records of potion formulas in the novel, he had been thinking about how to sell a few copies to improve his quality of life. And raise funds to buy materials.

According to the information recorded in the novel "Lord of the Mysteries", it is relatively safe to have two extraordinary gatherings during this time period. One is an information and material exchange meeting held by Mr. A of the Aurora Society, which Hugh and Fors often visit; the other is an extraordinary trade fair organized by Mr. "Eye of Wisdom" that the protagonist Klein came into contact with.

Of these two party circles, Abner is more inclined to attend the latter. First, as the organizer of the party, the real identity of the old Mr. "Eye of Wisdom" is the well-known detective Isengard Stanton. He is related to the Church of the God of Knowledge and Wisdom, and he is regarded as a small official in the Loen Kingdom. The character is also decent, much more reliable than the Aurora God Envoy who will go crazy if he doesn't move; secondly, the novel "Lord of the Mysteries" records in detail the place and time of the gathering held by the "Eye of Wisdom". It is much easier to find the Aurora Society trade fair that I have mentioned a few words; in the end, behind the Aurora Society is an evil **** who is willing to make trouble, and Abner, who has a golden finger, is actually quite guilty, and he does not want to prematurely Secrets revealed to the true Creator.

"Well, it's almost eight o'clock, go out and buy a copy of "Becklund Morning Post" first, and see if the recent party will be held. If not, I'm afraid I'll have to get a job first to make money. It’s 1 pound and 5 soli, not to mention buying materials, I’m afraid even eating will become a problem in a few days.” Concentrating on his thoughts, Abner packed up the ceremony materials, washed up a bit, and went out.

Then, he bought a copy of "Becklund Morning Post" from a newspaper boy on the street, and turned directly to the fifth page, and saw an advertisement, an advertisement for the purchase of goods by Ernst & Co.! This is the secret signal for the "Eye of Wisdom" in the novel to notify the party!

"This is really a coincidence, um, let me take a closer look... The quotations are 8 pence per liter for flour, 1 soli/lb for butter, 7 pence/lb for lard, and 3 pence per pound for butter. Pounds, marquis black tea 8 soli/pound... That is to say, tomorrow night at 8 o'clock there will be a gathering of Extraordinary people, the signal to open the door is 8 heavy knocks, 1 light knock, and the interval is 7 long and 1 short, in order... The following 3 and 8 are meaningless..."

Abner sorted out the content according to the interpretation method that the "Eye of Wisdom" personally said in the novel, and his heart jumped for joy. He felt that his luck was really good, at least he didn't have to work part-time.

With a joyful mood, he came to the restaurant where he had breakfast yesterday again. As soon as he opened the door, he couldn't help being taken aback. Because a conflict is erupting in the restaurant at this time.

It would be inaccurate to say that it was a conflict. What caught Abner's eyes was a girl with messy hair who was only 1.5 meters tall and three burly men over 1.8 meters tall. But what was surprising was that the three big men were already lying on the ground with bruised noses and swollen faces, while the girl calmly grabbed the collar of one of the big men and asked, "Who told you to come and arrest me?" of?"

Although she is not tall, she has such a strong majesty that even the restaurant waiters who are not close can't help but take a few steps back. Surprisingly, although the big man who was questioned was sweating, he withstood the majesty and did not reveal anything.

Seeing this scene, Abner was very surprised. These people were obviously ordinary people, otherwise they wouldn't be able to defeat Miss "Judgment" who had just been promoted to Sequence Ninth... Then, how did they resist extraordinary abilities?

Although he was a little curious, Abner obviously didn't intend to delve into it. He can only be considered a half Extraordinary right now, so he doesn't think he has the ability to get involved in such things.

"However, I have met Xio here for two consecutive days, so it is considered fate, why don't we chat and get to know each other later?" Abner thought.

At this time, Hugh also found Abner who walked into the restaurant. Although she was a little vigilant, most of her energy was still spent on interrogating the three gangsters. Although the failure of the ability surprised her, her rich experience made her immediately change the method of inquiry to the "physical" method!

Following the screams of the three of them, they finally couldn't resist Xio's "majesty" and began to explain. It turns out that these three people are Schick, a consultant hired by "Double-Faced Man" Rosen.

This consultant named Sigg is the "double-faced man" Rosen who joined him about seven or eight months ago, and has won the trust of the other party, and can mobilize most of Rosen's thugs! He heard that someone was inquiring about the badge last night and immediately sent people to investigate. Who would have thought that these three people would actually plan to take her back after seeing that Xio was just a little girl.

Their voices were not high, but Abner, who had more insight than ordinary people, could hear clearly. His brows furrowed instantly, and he instinctively analyzed and reasoned: "The badge? Could it be that Xio found it?" Extraordinary items? Used for contract fraud? If these three people are telling the truth, it seems that the key person in this incident is not that Rosen, but is more likely to be Schick! This person is most likely an Extraordinary! Then the problem comes, an Extraordinary Why does the latter want to serve as a consultant under the little gang leader? One may be that Rosen is a more powerful Extraordinary, and let him surrender, but it is not very consistent with the facts. The other possibility is that this Sigg is playing! And playing such a role, I'm afraid he's not a Sequence 8 scammer who went the wrong way? He's not only defrauding ordinary people, but also collaborators, and even misleading potential investigators! Hey, thinking about it this way, it may not be true to say that people are sent here because of badges Well... Well, I'd better remind Xio, just as a starting point for conversation."

Although these are just speculations by Abner without any obvious evidence, even if the reasoning is wrong, it can still remind Xio and reduce her danger. In the original book, she might just go to jail because of this case, but now she may not be really unscathed. This girl is sometimes very reckless.

On the other side, after Hugh had finished interrogating the gang members, he ordered the waiter to call the police from the street, and handed over the three to the authorities. As the victim and a woman, she passed the test after being interrogated briefly for two or three sentences, and watched the three people be taken away by the police.

Just as she was about to leave the restaurant, she suddenly saw Abner walking straight over. The other party smiled slightly and said, "Miss Arbiter, can I have the honor to buy you a cup of coffee?"

It was obviously the first time Xio was approached by someone, so he couldn't help being stunned, muttering in his heart why his 'majesty' failed to work every time today, but on the surface he asked vigilantly: "Who are you? What do you want from me?" something?"

"It doesn't matter who I am, but I have some opinions and inferences about what happened just now, which may be helpful to you." Abner said straightforwardly, and there was no need to beat around the bush with someone like Miss Hugh.

Xio was a little surprised when she heard the words. She hesitated for a while before she nodded and sat down at a table again. And Abner took the opportunity to sit opposite her, and ordered two cups of coffee, two slices of bread and a piece of butter under the reluctant gaze of the waiter.

While waiting for the meal, Xio was the first to ask, "Are you an Extraordinary, too? An official? What do you want to say to me?" Because of yesterday's inexplicable induction, Xio was actually very wary of Abner.

Abner shook his head, and said somewhat vaguely: "I'm not an official, I'm just a fan who knows something about extraordinary things... I just heard some problems from your conversation, and I want to remind you Miss you." He didn't lie, he is not a real Beyonder so far~IndoMTL.com~ Hugh didn't believe that the other party was just a fan, and concluded that he was a Beyonder, and the sequence was still above her, But she didn't point it out, but asked directly: "What do you want to tell me?" Isn't this already very clear? It's just that ordinary gangsters got a special item and used it to do evil.

Abner didn't make a fool of himself either. After sorting out and polishing his previous reasoning, he explained it to Xio in detail.

However, Xio was a little confused, and asked suspiciously: "Conman? Pretend? What does this mean?"

"So you don't know how to act..." Abner slapped his forehead, thinking: I've been negligent, Xio at this time really doesn't know how to act, that's because Fors learned it after joining the Tarot Club for her. Forget it, anyway, she has been playing the 'arbiter' unconsciously, so it's okay to tell her in advance.

"What is the acting method?" Xio didn't know why, and only felt that he was a fake Extraordinary.

Abner thought for a while, imitating the tone of the fool in the novel who confuses members of the Tarot Society, and said, "For potions, it's not mastering, but digestion. It's not digging, but acting. The name of the potion is not just a symbol. , or images, and more importantly, the 'key' to digestion."

After finishing speaking, Abner didn't want to explain further, so he changed the subject and said, "If my inference is correct, this matter is obviously beyond your ability. You'd better find an opportunity to report the clues to the Official transcendents, with their expertise, I'm afraid they can see more problems." Reporting is the special skill of the future Lord of Mysteries, and he doesn't mind using it in advance...

Xio wanted to ask a few more questions about acting, but Abner was unwilling to say more, so he pursed his lips and asked again: "Sir, why did you help me and tell me this knowledge?" and inference?"
