Chapter 342: The Security Captain's Intuition
What if the teacher really got to the other end of the rift?
Ikeda began to think seriously about this question.
First of all, it is certain that even if the assumption is true, the teacher should choose to take the initiative to enter the rift, and she thinks that there should be no person or creature in this world who can coerce the teacher, and this is indeed in line with the teacher's character.
That is, even on the other side of the rift, the teacher will act according to his own will......
When Ikeda re-read the contents of an ancient book with this in mind, he suddenly made a new discovery.
Vera Fernando's reunion with the Witch of the Twilight lacks detail, and if the teacher is added in between, everything seems to be understandable.
As far as she knew, there was some friendship between the teacher and Marianne, and in that era, the teacher was probably the only one who could convince Marianne.
Don't......
The text she sees now is not the original history, but the new history produced by the teacher traveling to that era?
In this way, the previous weirdness seems to be able to explain clearly.
Although this unwarranted speculation is not logical, it becomes the most likely explanation in the present.
"Seventeen, come in!"
When calling Seventeen, Ikeda quickly prepared the banknotes at night, and there was only one way to verify this guess!
"What's the matter?"
Seventeen entered the house for unknown reasons.
"Do you know the riddle?"
If there is a slight change in the past history, then not only the records of this ancient book will change, but their own memories should also have corresponding deviations, which is probably why she has been feeling a little strange just now, but she can't say that something is not right.
So it's useless to just copy the words in the book, what they have to do is not to record the present, but to leave a puzzle for themselves after the memory has been deviated.
"Are you ready?"
Seventeen nodded.
With a pen in his right hand, Ikeda turned the book to the next chapter.
This ancient book tells the history of engraving from its creation to its development, and the content after the first chapter is the process of application.
- Chapter of the Necronomicon.
The title of the second volume catches the eye.
…………………………
It's night, a suburban town.
The carriage stopped near the post station, the groom signed the horses that had been running for a day to the stable, and Gu Yun and the three of them walked directly into the only hotel in the town.
Rather than a hotel, Gu Yun felt that the environment inside was more like a homestay converted into a foothold.
The whole room has only one floor, the middle of the room is burning coal, on the left is four dining tables for guests, the right side of the floor looks like it is used for accommodation, not only is there no bed, the floor is not willing to be spaced, the guests who eat on the left can directly see the sleeping appearance of the stayer, in this dangerous world, if the diner has bad intentions, it is very likely to take advantage of the danger of the person to directly slaughter the sleeping sleeper.
After being repeatedly regarded as a security captain, Gu Yun instinctively became worried about the security environment in this town.
Fortunately, when the three of them entered, there were neither diners nor overnight stayers in the hotel, and the whole room was empty, and the boss who greeted them looked like an outlaw.
Gu Yun felt that this might be one of the important reasons why this hotel had little business.
"Eat and stay overnight."
Vera made it simple and clear what she meant.
After betraying the Witches, she has lived like a witcher, and once she left the main city, most of the towns and villages had a place to stay, and many villages could not even find a place to stay, so they had to disturb the locals for the night.
The boss took the money and after a while brought the prepared meal to the table.
The food on the table was mainly baked products, and the main food was hard bread that had been left for an unknown amount of time, and looking at the food on the table, both in appearance and smell, Marianne immediately dismissed the idea of eating here.
However, Gu Yun and Vera ate generously.
Although it is good to eat, the taste of the food is really not complimentary.
The barbecue is bland and tasteless, basically dried beef and lamb are grilled on the fire with little spices, and the hard bread is full of a sour smell due to fermentation.
It seems that in addition to the poor public security environment, the food hygiene situation here is also really worrying.
Gu Yun suspected that this store should not have a food safety qualification certificate, and his sister warned him more than once that he could not go to this kind of store, because he would have diarrhea after eating.
However, Gu Yun has seen everything worse than this environment, and if he wants him to have diarrhea, as long as he has to be at the level of the Nightmare King.
The boss didn't smile the whole time, even if he received the money, he still looked impatient.
"Watch out for him when you go to bed later."
"What's wrong?"
Vera asked in a whisper.
In her opinion, the owners of the inn all looked similar, and the witchers did not intersect with the locals except for a few cases they handled.
"It feels like he doesn't want to do good things."
“…… Don't judge people by their appearance, no one wants to look like a bandit leader. ”
"It's not a matter of looks, it's the details of all aspects of eyes, demeanor and demeanor."
Gu Yun couldn't explain the principle of the judgment generated after all the details were put together, but he had seen many criminal police captains on TV who had mastered similar skills.
Full of wine and food, Gu Yun's sequelae of sleeping in the car for a day were manifested at this time, obviously it was late at night outside the window, but he felt a hundred times more energetic.
After coming to the other side of the rift, there seemed to be something wrong with his biological clock.
Marianne told Vera all day about the principles of the life spell, and she was mentally exhausted, while Vera was both physically and mentally exhausted, and it was absolutely exhausting to practice all kinds of things, and after she had eaten enough, she just wanted to fall asleep.
"Go to sleep first, I'll keep watch."
As Gu Yun spoke, his eyes glared at the innkeeper for a moment, and the innkeeper was really a ruthless character, so he stood not far away and stared at him without flinching.
Time ticked by, and when Marianne and Vera's breathing had calmed down, the boss suddenly said, "A few years ago, a witch came to our town. ”
Gu Yun happened to have nothing to do, so he listened to the other party's story.
"Unlike witches, witches need many ritual items to help them complete their spells, and if I'm not mistaken, one of the potions bottle around the waist of one of the girls you're traveling with is one of the ingredients used by witches."
"She has good eyesight, she was once a member of the Witches' Society, but then betrayed the Witches' Society."
"Without prejudice to the final ruling."
The boss kept a calm face and slowly picked up the axe by the stove, "Since you are the one in the know, then there is nothing to say between us." ”
