Chapter Fifty-Six: The Secret Passage (Asking for a Monthly Pass)

"Nothing. Klein smiled softly.

He didn't seem to notice it at all, but his thoughts were spinning rapidly, thinking about what the instantaneous change just now meant:

The previous internal guards had gone upstairs up a nearby staircase, and it was initially assumed that they lived there, which coincided with the place where the change had just occurred...... The state of the internal caretakers is not too right, so the probability of getting out of control is greater than that of the normal extraordinary, and they will suddenly show malice and evil thoughts?

And this was forcibly suppressed or smoothed down by the sealing core behind the Chanis Gate deep underground?

If this is the case, there are two possibilities, one is that the sealing core behind the Charnis Gate can sense all the abnormal changes inside the St. Samuel Church, so as to make an instinctive reaction, and the other is that the internal caretakers are constantly eroded by the power of the sealing core in the process of being on duty all year round, and have become a part of the other party to some extent, or carry the corresponding special, once there is a mutation, it will immediately attract the intervention of the ontology.

If it's the former, it means that when I stun the inner caretaker to replace him, it will be easy to be detected by the sealing core behind the Chanis Gate, and make it change as it was just now, so that things will just start and fail, and if the latter, when I enter the Chanis Gate, the inner caretaker in my disguise will inevitably be ostracized......

You have to figure out what the problem is before you can come up with a targeted solution......

It's so hard to steal seals from church to church, and it's no wonder that almost no one wants to do it......

Crane listened intently as Bishop Elektra recounted St. Samuel's experiences and the letters he left behind until it was almost time before he politely took his leave.

Back at 160 Berlund Street, he had just handed over his top hat and cane to Richardson when he saw Mr. Butler approaching him.

"Sir, are you going to have a ball or dinner party next weekend and invite the neighbors?" said Walter, who did not suggest, but seemed to ask simply.

But Klein knew very well that since Mr. Butler had brought it up, it was time to do it.

He bowed his head lightly and said:

"Saturday night, prom.

"I'm going to have you and Tania do some preparation in advance.

"Is there enough money at home?"

As he said the last sentence, Crane looked sideways at the housekeeper.

Tanya nodded solemnly and said:

"Enough.

"The variety of alcoholic beverages in your wine cellar is enough for several banquets. ”

When she moved to 160 Berklund Street, Klein gave her £1,000 in cash for her family, and it seems that even if she needs to replenish items such as wine, tea and coffee beans, she will definitely not be able to use it up in a month.

The gold pound is still very strong...... Klein nodded, smiled and said:

"Don't prescribe too expensive wine for the first time, Rune's habit is to be subtle. ”

"Yes, sir. Walter knew exactly what to do with a ball, but he listened very carefully to his employer's instructions.

He paused for a moment, then said:

"There are only two things you need to do, one is to draw up a guest list with our help, and come up with a greeting for each person who they are and what they have experienced, and the other is to create a custom dance attire. ”

What a hassle...... When I greeted Hazel, could I say that the sewers here are cleaner than the squares in the Southern Continent? Crane sighed and slandered, and nodded slightly:

"No problem. ”

............

In the dead of night, the red moon hangs high, and the haze has thinned a lot, Beckland presents a quiet beauty.

In the master bedroom of Dawn Dantès, Klein sets up the ceremony and summons himself.

He's going into the sewers tonight to make sure that Triss is gone, and he's going to the fork in the road they've described, exploring the so-called secret passages to see what he can find.

Crane didn't want to get any extra gains, but he was worried that the secret hidden in the sewers would be a hidden danger that would one day be detonated, and that it could easily implicate Daun Dantès, who lived nearby, to sabotage his efforts to steal the notes of the Antigonus family.

In this kind of thing, you can't be an ostrich and bury your head in the sand and pretend that you don't see anything...... The most effective way to find the problem as soon as possible, before it has completely erupted, should destroy the damage, and report the report...... Of course, you must also be careful not to let your own exploration become a fuse...... Crane's spirit emerged from the candle flame, and with the help of the Azk bronze whistle, it possessed the body of Dwayne Dantès in front of him, manipulating him to the edge of the "spiritual wall" and sitting on the easy chair.

From the outside world, this is the equivalent of a Monopoly man reading a newspaper and forgetting to go to bed.

The summoned soul possessing one's own body does not feel the same as returning directly to the body, and there is an obvious sense of estrangement...... Crane contrasted the experience and floated back to his desk, packing up most of the items on the altar, leaving only the candle that sustained the summoning and let it burn quietly.

With all this done, Crane wore "Wriggling Hunger" and blended into the Azk Brass Whistle, the "Death Knell" revolver, and the Señol gold coin, flew out of the master bedroom, left 160 Berklund Street in mid-air, and burrowed into the sewers.

As soon as Klein was in a damp and dirty environment, he immediately unleashed the "Wraith" Seignor, manipulated the secret puppet to distance himself from himself, and turned into a hidden fork in the road where Triss had previously recuperated from his injuries.

This time, he saw that the area, which was so clean that it didn't look like a sewer area, was stained and infested with rats.

"Looks like Triss is really gone......," Crane, who was far behind, breathed a sigh of relief.

As a spirit, he didn't need to breathe or walk on the ground, so he didn't care how harsh the environment was in the sewers.

Seignior "The Wraith" turned around and walked out of the area, continuing to move forward, finding the sixth fork in the left, while Crane kept a distance of more than 50 meters from him, fully playing the role of behind-the-scenes manipulator.

At the end of the fork in the road, there was a mossy and corroded wall, and at first glance, there was nothing unusual, and if it wasn't for Triss's mention, Crane wouldn't have let the secret puppet grope every inch of this place in detail.

A few minutes later, Señor, wearing a dark infrared suit, suddenly straightened up, stepped forward, and stepped into the wall.

Through the thick barrier, Crane's eyes suddenly opened up, and with the help of the vision of the secret puppet, he saw a semi-natural and semi-artificial cave, which was less than 1.8 meters high and 3 meters wide, with shovels and other utensils wrapped in oilcloth on the ground, piled with a large amount of dirt and gravel, and two hidden passages in front of him that extended diagonally downward.

The one on the left is only five or six meters deep, and the one on the right is nearly ten meters, but nothing exists, and it seems that it is still being excavated.

Is this, Hazel made it? A haughty lady of high society during the day, but at night she became a burrower in the sewers, and had to move dirt and gravel bucket by bucket? She wandered to find the exact location, and excavation was the next step? There should have been a secret door in that wall just now...... Crane leaned against the shelter outside the fork in the road, manipulating Señor to take a closer look.

He then allowed the Wraith to enter a hidden passage on the left, all the way to the end of the impermeable layers of mud and rock.

Señol's figure faded into a physical presence, and he walked through the dirt in front of him in this form, exploring the depths.

But until he approached the limit of 100 meters, he found nothing worth noting, only some ordinary insects.

Klein then asked the secret puppet to change direction and "swam" in the sea of dirt, but still did not achieve anything.

Seignior quickly returned to the cave and entered the hidden passage on the right, unaffected by obstacles.

"Still nothing out of the ordinary...... It was not for nothing that Triss judged that a certain way or possession of a certain item would be necessary...... Well, she should have been explored by the invisible thread of the 'Witch of Pleasure'...... Unfortunately, my 'tinder' gloves have been lost...... I don't know if the gray mist aura on my body will work, it seems to attract the extraordinary people of the 'thief' path......" Crane muttered a few words to himself, wanting to take advantage of the fact that he was now in spirit form to personally explore the two hidden passages that were suspected to have been dug up by Hazel.

However, he resisted this impulse, because he is now a "master of secret puppets", and it is against the rules of acting to play a real person unless he has to.

"It's okay if you don't rely on the gray mist breath, when the tarot meeting tomorrow afternoon, just ask for a magical item from the 'Thief' route, it doesn't have to be too expensive, just correspond to Sequence 9 and Sequence 8...... Well, that badge of Lanerus is just a signal receiver, not an item that belongs to this path...... Without knowing what is hidden in the depths of the secret passage, rashly using his own spirit body to explore, maybe some high-order monsters will be introduced...... Prudence and caution are always self-imposed requirements that do not go out of style......" Crane sighed slowly, retracting the "resentful spirit" Seigno.

He wasn't worried that Hazel would continue to come until he found a solution to the situation last time, and no human with a normal IQ would continue to come!

Not to mention whether Hazel has been in contact with the Circle of Extraordinary, even if he does, it is not so simple to get the items of the "Sun" realm, after all, Baekland is the territory of the Storm Church...... I don't use it often, hehe, find a chance to sell it to her, and then use it to hurt my secret puppet?" Klein teased himself twice, laughing and shaking his head.

He quickly ended the summoning and returned straight above the gray mist, disappearing into the sewers.

............

On Monday morning, the sun was shining through the thin clouds and spilling into every corner of Beckland.

Emlyn White pulled down her silk top hat and muttered with half-closed eyes as she left the carriage and walked towards Harvest Chapel:

"The weather was really bad......

"Beckland's worst season is coming soon......"

He was about to step on the steps when he suddenly saw a newsboy approaching him, handed a copy of the Tasok newspaper, and said:

"Sir, this morning's paper!"

Emlyn was about to refuse, but found that the other party was holding a small note on his finger holding the newspaper.

...... Emlyn quietly took out a penny of copper, handed it to the other man, and took the Tasok newspaper and the note.

Before entering the Harvest Chapel, he quickly unfolded the latter and skimmed through:

"The person you're looking for has a clue, please come to the Brave Bar. ”
