The long nights in Brut are not peaceful, so horse-drawn carriages rarely travel at night, and even if the rainstorms gradually stop, it is impossible to catch a taxi on the road.

In order to return as soon as possible, Su Xian began to run.

Halfway through the rain, he directly took off his raincoat and threw it into a ditch, as for the mask on his face, he thought about it and didn't throw it away in the end.

The wind was cool, and the night sky after the rain was unusually clear, with no moon or stars, like a mirror, reflecting the chaos of the world.

When he returned to the Rare Treasure Antiquities Shop, he disposed of his shoes.

After that, he did nothing superfluous, only took a little bath, and then went to bed driven by weariness, and soon fell into a deep sleep.

……

When I woke up, the renovation team was already sitting outside the store waiting.

Su Xian went downstairs and opened the door, allowing the decoration workers to play freely, and then yawned and fell asleep again.

It was only when he had slept enough that he opened his eyes to the still-beating sound.

After that, he sat on the edge of the bed for a long time, his brain circuitry reconnected, and slowly recalled a series of events that happened last night.

To sum it up in one word, it is "very rewarding".

Although Professor Buck is a hidden transcendent, he has nothing to do with the wooden box, and the real "person behind the scenes" is more likely to be Wal-Mart, an antiquarian. Walmart was one of the attendees, but he didn't show up, citing busy business. ”

"He knew about the meeting, and he was a professional antiquarian himself, so he probably knew something about the wooden box from the beginning. Mark wasn't familiar with him, and if I wanted to know his whereabouts, I'd have to ask Professor Barker. ”

In addition, Dimon's information about Luo ● was learned from the man whose pen name was Curse Moon. I now have the Book of Night Ravens from which to track it down. ”

While thinking, Su Xian summoned "Luo ●'s Card Album" and put it on his lap to look through it.

To this day, there are eleven different types of cards recorded in the card album, among which the "No.3 Mutant Wild Dog's Heart" has been used for sacrifice, but it is still recorded in the card album.

In addition, "Seven's Severed Finger" is also an asset card.

It's the severed finger of the evil god, and it's quite rare, so if it's used for sacrifice, you should be able to get a good charity at random.

But it is also because it is the severed finger of the evil god and a part of the "god", which is quite special, so Su Xian is not ready to use it for sacrifice for the time being.

In this way, there are only "Gospel Book", "Night Raven Book" and "Pi" left.

The same book, the "Book of the Gospels" is classified as an information card, while the "Book of Night Ravens" is classified as an item card, which shows that the functions of the two are completely different.

The "Book of Night Ravens" is a powerful item capable of ultra-long-distance communication, and it has only one function, but it is rated as a three-star star, which shows how powerful it is.

"丌" is a skill card, after using it can be expanded into a special field, this field is simulated "seven days of creation", it seems to contain infinite mysteries, the evaluation star is seven stars, but how to use this field, and what special effects, are still to be developed.

It had a full seven hours of CD, but it was now turned up and ready to start experimenting.

……

On the last night, Su Xian took out the "Book of Night Crows" from the card album and put it away.

As Dimon said, there is a dark compartment in the Book of Night Ravens with a black quill.

This quill does not need to be dipped in ink, and can be displayed on the left page by writing a complete sentence (usually ending with a period) on any page on the right side of the book.

The text displayed on the left page can be stored for 24 hours.

Anyone who owns the Book of Night Ravens will be able to see the text displayed on the left page.

However, if you specify a pen name when writing a sentence on the right, you will be able to chat privately with the pen name owner.

The text is also displayed on the left, but it will not be seen by others.

The format of a private chat is basically as follows:

[Eternal → Curse Month]: XXXXXX.

……

Among them, "Eternity", is Dimon's pen name.

"Dumont's real identity is Earl Morgan, his pen name is [Eternity] in the pen workshop, but he claims to be Mr. Dumont when he does evil...... This is apparently to not reveal identity. Now that I've got his Book of Night Ravens, I wonder if I can impersonate him? ”

This is a question that you will know by giving it a try.

Su Xian pondered for a moment and wrote a line on the page on the right.

[Eternity]: In this materialistic society, people's hearts are cold and ruthless, and there are only women... The quilt is still a little warm.

……

In less than half a second, the same words appeared on the left side, but the handwriting changed and became printed.

- This is a good way to avoid the problem of identity being exposed by handwriting.

……

There are not many members of the pen research club, and there are generally no people who are reading the Night Raven's book anytime and anywhere, and even if they are reading, they will not necessarily respond, in fact, there is no chat history on this page within 24 hours, it can be seen that this is an organization with very cold relations between individuals.

So it's normal for no one to respond for half a day.

For this reason, Su Xian deliberately wrote such a sentence.

His purpose was achieved, and several people were lured out.

On the Book of Night Ravens, several text messages were swiped out in a row.

……

[Meteorite]: Hey......

(What a meaningful sigh!) ）

[Black Knight]: This sentence, this sentence, won my heart!

[Prophet]: Female... Quilts, I also want a pair of quilts with temperature.

Joan: Don't give up!

……

The outpouring of so many people at once is very rare in a pen research meeting.

After reading the replyed messages, Su Xian wrote down the pen names of these four people.

Because of the time, he didn't ask for much information from Dumon's mouth, and basically he didn't even know which members were here, so he had to start from the beginning.

"Meteor, Black Knight, Prophet...... In addition, the curse moon and the demon are both pen names with a very personal style, but I don't know how many elements are used for concealment. It's this Joan, a little incomprehensible. This can't be your real name, right? ”

Anyone who has ever registered an account online knows that there are always people who accidentally register their real name as a screen name when they first sign up, which is a big taboo for Internet beginners.

Su Xian kept an eye on it, and didn't continue to talk to people anymore.

If you say too much, you will lose, and he doesn't want to expose that he is no longer Dimon's.

But fortunately, Dimon basically does not bubble and does not leave a clear impression on the language style, so he can be left to play.

As for how to test the [Curse Moon], he still needs to think about it.

……

Then he closed his book and prepared to go downstairs.

As he was walking down the stairs, he suddenly had an idea, so he went straight down to the secret room, and found two identical covers in the secret room, which were wrapped in the "Book of Night Ravens" and the "Book of Gospels" respectively.

The thickness and size of these two books are basically the same, and the cover is the same, so it is basically impossible to tell which one is which.

After that, even if he flipped through the books in front of the store and often replaced the two books, he would not be easily seen.

……

After doing this, Su Xian walked out of the secret room with one of the books, said hello to the decorators in the store, and went out for breakfast.

People are iron and rice is steel, if you don't give food, you would rather die!

Billy's restaurant, old location, by the window.

After sitting down, a waiter came up to him and asked, "Good morning, sir." Want something to eat? ”

Mr? A surprising title.

Su Xian put the book down, raised his head to look at the waiter, and felt that this person was a little unfamiliar: "New here?" ”

The waiter was obviously asked, looking a little embarrassed: "Yes, sir, you can call me Corgi." ”

"Oh, Corgi?" Su Xian asked, "What about the Teddy lady from earlier?" ”

One of Billy's original waiters was Teddy, a delicate lady who had been on the morning shift at the restaurant.

When Su Xian came here for breakfast every day, he would always chat with her.

Of course, Ms. Teddy, like most people here, calls him "Sizz" rather than "Sir".

The waiter Corgi scratched his head and said confusedly, "I don't know what you said about Miss Teddy." I was called in yesterday afternoon to help. I'll tell you the truth, I'm Uncle Billy's nephew. But I heard that the reason I was asked for help was because the last waiter was killed, and I don't know if it was Miss Teddy. ”

Billy, the owner of this Billy's restaurant, is a very personable middle-aged man with blonde hair.

Su Xian was slightly surprised: "Killed?" So suddenly? ”

After all, there were people who had talked a few words, and he suddenly felt a little sad.

In a world without the law, people are not even guaranteed the most basic lives, and no one knows who will get up this morning and leave this world forever.

Su Xian shook his head slightly, ordered a few common breakfasts, and took down the newspaper inserted in the shelf.

It's still "Today's Morning Post".

When I opened it, the headline was bright red words: "The ninth, serial homicide!" ”

Seeing these words, his eyes instantly focused and he looked at them carefully.

This is a follow-up to the "Serial Dry Corpse Case", which is exactly the same method of killing, and there is still no regular time, place and target of killing.

It's just that this time the location of the crime was ...... It's a neighborhood that's even closer to here!

The time of the incident was yesterday.

The murder in a residential area caused panic, and several of the residents reported it as soon as they found the horrific corpse with its blood drained.

The police confirmed the identity of the deceased after examining the belongings on the deceased.

"It's Ms. Teddy......"

Su Xian put his hand under his nose and breathed slowly a few times.

He doesn't have a deep relationship with Ms. Teddy, and he doesn't have much grief, but counting the last "Gray Gang Lane Dry Corpse Case", there have been two consecutive murders in this vicinity, does this mean that the murderer has temporarily settled in this neighborhood?

"A murderer who may well possess supernatural powers."

He drew a horizontal line with his finger on the newspaper, thinking about what the murderer's presence would do to him.

The gaze naturally moves downward.

He soon saw another piece of information in the newspaper that he was more concerned about.

Recently, it seems that someone has spotted a group of strangely dressed people walking in the alley.

The newspaper only described it as follows: "Possibly another masquerade." ”

It's concerning.
