Chapter 4: Spooky Tapes

If the first floor is a place for practice, then the second floor is the birthplace of theory, where a large number of small blackboards are placed, and boxes of chalk are piled up in the corners.

On the shelves against the wall, there are all kinds of academic books neatly placed, and it is almost difficult to see new ones, most of them are loosely turned books.

On one side of the room, a large desk was littered with strange photographs and various documentary books, mostly descriptions of strange events.

"It was about 3 o'clock in the morning half a year ago, and I had done a night of experiments, ready to go to the beach for a walk and relax, and when I walked to the northern shore of the border of Buntarinn and looked at the Oswei Sea, I saw a figure in the mist on the sea, he was standing on the sea, and he seemed to be holding something in his hand, and in front of him, the sea was surging, and several columns of water swam around him like water snakes, which was simply ...... Unbelievable!"

Looking back on the past, Cook's eyes were full of strange brilliance.

Another person who is extremely curious about the other side of this world, Donald wonders how he can always meet this kind of person.

Sherlock was better off because someone in his family was a judge, and he often heard about it from Royce, and he seemed to be on the verge of becoming a judge recently

Cook saw a corner of Donald's world, as a person who had been rigorous in science all his life, and one day suddenly discovered that there was still supernatural, unexplained power in this world, and those legends that existed in the market rumors were actually true.

How can you resist not exploring?

Now talking about his memories in front of Donald, how could Donald not know that he was trying to test his identity.

Do you want to tell him?

The answer is no.

"Yes, do you still have such a mysterious memory, and the person who can control the water column on the surface of the sea really exists?"

Looking down in thought, Donald didn't mean to identify himself, partly because he was afraid that revealing his identity would cause a lot of trouble, and more partly because he didn't trust Stoart Cook as a person.

Donald found a chance to see the soul of this old man, a completely ordinary person, it can be said that ordinary people can not be more ordinary, but he is not sure whether there are "special people" among the people Cook knows, which makes him always on his guard, and the reason for this state of mind is needless to say.

The stable situation that he had finally won in exchange for was not easy to break.

"It's amazing...... That's it, that's it, this is my class schedule, there is a class tomorrow, before eight o'clock in the morning, wait at the door here, there may be some materials and instruments that need to be used in class, do you need to sort out, is there a problem?"

Donald didn't give the expected answer, Cook took out the class schedule from the drawer and handed it to the table, put his hands on the table, and pointed his fingers on the table, not hiding his disappointment in the slightest, but it was only there, and there were no more radical words and actions.

He didn't dismiss himself on the spot......

Donald stood at the table, he thought about the possibility of Cook taking the case to let him go after learning that he was not a wizard, or to change him to a job in a more tactful way, out of sight, and never thought that it would end like this.

"No problem, I'll be on time, in addition, I have a small request, that is, in the future, I can borrow some basic books on experimental operations, and I also want to learn chemical experiments and other operations. ”

The configuration of talent potions is a matter related to the life of the family must come by himself, and Donald is naturally reluctant to tell others about the formula of moonshine ink, but the experience in his mind about the configuration of potions is close to 0, and he needs to learn this knowledge.

"Are you interested in this? Learning is something to be encouraged, but most of my books here may be more complicated, even if you borrow them, you can't understand them without systematic study, so I'll give you my debit card, the library has a lot of books in this area, you can borrow them at any time." ”

"Thank you very much, is there anything I need to do now? I don't have anything with me, I'm ready to go to work. ”

Donald needs to take a walk in Dmingham tonight, the materials of talent potion and moonlight ink are not available in one store, there may be some special materials that need to be bought in the underground market, and he doesn't know where the underground market in Dmingham is for the time being, and the method of identification in Pston City in the past doesn't know if it can be used in Dmingham.

"For the time being...... I'm also old, and there are a lot of lab equipment in the basement that need to be sorted out, so you can familiarize yourself with the school and the surrounding environment first, and get there on time tomorrow. ”

Originally, he temporarily asked Donald to be his teaching assistant, and for a while Cook really didn't have a job to hand him over, thinking of the objects stored in his basement, he tried again.

Looking at the clock on the wall, it was only 9 o'clock in the morning, and Donald had nowhere to go for the time being, although the two days of train had made him mentally tired, but with meditation, it was not time to rest immediately.

The basement was not cluttered as Donald had imagined, there was no dust, it should have been cleaned not long ago, but there were many strange mechanical instruments piled up, and the central workbench was particularly strange, which looked like an irregular mechanical box, with two iron bars sticking out of the top, and two trumpet-shaped objects hanging from the outermost part.

"This is the latest gramophone, I like to use it to listen to some music when I usually stay up late at work, it can make my mind active, why don't you try it?"

Cook stood in front of the table and saw that Donald had noticed the gramophone, his face was expressionless, but his hands opened the mechanical tray under the gramophone, which actually contained records, but he took it out to avoid Donald's gaze and put it down, and instead took out a tape preserved on special paper from the box on the other side, and put it in the middle of the empty space dedicated to the tape playback.

呲~呲~

Simple electric sound.

Bang la ~ bang ~ bang la la ~ The sudden sound of the gramophone stopped Donald, who was cleaning up some mechanical parts on the table, and the prelude to this type of song?

Like a storm, mixed with the sound of waves crashing against a reef or a ship's deck, Donald couldn't help but focus.

"Logbook, March 5th, today is our ......

"The storm is too big, quickly lower the sails, put the iron anchor down to stabilize ......"...

"I'm coming......"

"Captain, the ship keeps rocking, and the anchor is ......."

"Revenge, I'll get revenge......"

"Captain! The bilge is leaking, as if it has been sunk by something!"

"Feel the raging waves!"

Click~ The sound stopped.

Donald subconsciously frowned, I don't know where this recording came from, but there is a deep voice mixed in the dialogue of the characters, which is completely out of line with the content of those conversations, although the voice is vague, but it does exist.

He looked at Cook with some confusion, he didn't understand why the other party wanted to play this recording to him.

"I'm sorry, I misplaced it, this is the music record, this tape is from the maritime office in Xialin District some time ago, because I heard the people inside say that this tape recorded the voice of the sea god, and I forgot to take it out after listening to it last night...... Donald, do you believe that there is a sea god?"

"According to the content of religious culture, of course it exists, otherwise there would be no sect that believes in the god of the sea, but I don't think the tape is the god of the sea. ”

can't show his identity, there is nothing to avoid discussing this kind of thing, it's just some personal opinions, Cook can be regarded as a great favor for himself, there is no need to refute him in this kind of place.

"Oh, what's that saying?"

The young man didn't think it was an accident, which made Cook a little excited, and he had heard the recording to many people, but many of them just listened to it as a strange story, saying that it might be that the sound of a storm had changed the voice of the person next to him, or that someone had deliberately misedited it.

"There is revenge in the words, this is not what the sea god would say, the wrath of the gods, in religion is called divine punishment or divine might, and the word revenge is absolutely incompatible. ”

Donald used to study religion, and I can't remember the content, but he also read a lot of books on this subject in Pston, and he can be regarded as reminiscing a lot, and it is better to put it here as a cover.

"Donald, you seem to know a lot about religion?"

"Didn't I tell you, I studied religion when I was in Pston. ”

"Religion, meaning you're very good at religion?"

Demingham is a free area of faith, such as the royal Delorraine with a royal prefix title is naturally funded by the empire, although there is also religious studies here, but the service is not some clergy in their seventies and eighties, or some so-called experts who know little about religion, and they talk about one set of things, but in fact they know what they know is already more than ten years ago, and there is no reference meaning.

And Donald's education apparently led Cook to think that he had found someone to talk to, or at least that the other party thought that something did exist.

"And what do you think could be the cause of this sound?"

Excited, Cook asked again.

"I think it might have something to do with ghosts, but I'm not sure, after all, no one has ever seen a ghost. ”

In fact, Donald believes that the voices in this tape are most likely left by ghosts, and these strange sounds are inaudible to ordinary people, but they were recorded by the tape.

"Your idea is very interesting, and I think we will have a lot in common. ”

This is the first time that a ghost speculation has been raised after listening to this recording, and Cook thinks he has found someone who has a common language.
