Chapter 203: Midnight

In the Kasley branch, it was already late at night, and Tracy, who had heard that something had happened to the Angreiwen branch, no longer felt sleepy, she lay down in front of the reception desk, her eyes moving around with Resuss.

Resus extinguished all the lights in the branch and whispered, "Don't let people see anything abnormal, just sleep." ”

Tracy raised her head and said, "Maybe there will be a contact call soon, you go and rest, I'll keep watch." ”

Resuss curled up on the couch next to the communicator, equally unsleepable.

"It's very unsettling tonight, I'll just lie down like this, you little girl, beware of catching a cold on your stomach, let's go upstairs and have a good rest."

Tracy shook her head and lay on the reception desk, thinking wildly, when she suddenly heard an "aggressive" knock on the door.

Resus, too, was awakened, and he warily drew his weapon, and then turned on the light, and looked out the window, but saw no one.

The uninvited guest outside the window saw someone in front of the window, flew over, and knocked on the window twice with his mouth.

Rathers looked strangely at the motley owl outside the window. "Is this a lost wild bird? Could it be that someone is using this to send a message? Rether thought to himself, and he looked at the owl's feet, which were not tied to a pipe or anything like that.

The owl looked at Resus, and impatiently tapped the window twice with its beak.

Tracy was dazzled to see Rather open the window, and then an owl flew in and stopped on the coffee table.

Then, the owl opened its mouth and spat out a note from it.

"It turns out that the news of it is hidden in the mouth!" Taken aback, Reses opened the note, which read:

"Important: Please give the box to Cassius immediately, and don't open it on your own, S."

S has sent new information again, and this time the way of sending information is even weirder. Resus hurriedly asked the owl, "What about the box for Cassius?" ”

The owl had another mouth, and a small box in the shape of a flat hammer spat out of its mouth.

Tracy couldn't believe her eyes, she walked over and stared at the owl's tiny head, and as she studied, she said in surprise, "Where is this box hidden?" ”

The owl ignored her, and when he saw that the letter had been delivered, he took a picture of the box and the two of them, as evidence of delivery, and flew away quickly.

Resus studied the peculiar little box, with four switches that could be flipped on it, and a lot of words written on it, apparently related to the way the box was opened correctly. He used the communicator to dial the number of Angori Wen, but he didn't expect it to be connected immediately, and a familiar voice said on the other end of the line: "Hello, I'm Kim." ”

Resus hurriedly asked, "Kim, Cassius is not here, the branch has just received a box signed S, and he has designated it to receive it." ”

"Oops, he just went out, I'm going to find him."

Rathers hung up the phone and waited anxiously, feeling that it had been a long time before King called back.

"I just discussed, please send the box to the observatory in Area 14, the airship is already on the way back, and then you will personally take the airship to deliver the box."

Rather quickly put on his holster and instructed Tracy, "I must send this box away immediately, you are the only one left in the branch, be careful, keep the door to death, be vigilant, remember to be smart." ”

Tracy said dissatisfiedly: "How can I say that I am also a person who has passed the guerrilla assessment, how can I not even keep a home, but you go out now, you must be very careful." ”

Resus smiled, as an encouragement to his juniors, and went out with his weapon.

After Resers had left, Tracy turned out the lights inside the Guerrilla Guild, put the door of the Guerrilla Guild on top with a heavy object, and took the weapon in his hand, curled up behind the reception desk, vigilantly waiting for emergency communication.

It's half past two in the morning.

On the outskirts of Angoriwen, Cassius had been looking at this fish house by the water for a long time. After a long time, Cassius said softly, "Very suspicious. ”

Melanie asked, "Why?" ”

Cassius said: "This place is outside the city, and it is a restaurant, and there is a waterway below, so it is perfect for supply and transit on weekdays." And it's so late, there are dark sentinels on duty, and the level of alert is much higher than that of a restaurant. ”

Melanie asked softly, "Whistle?" She stared wide-eyed, but there was no trace of it.

Melanie was about to take a closer look, when suddenly Cassius reminded her, "Hide, someone's coming." ”

On the path on the shore, a figure was hurrying towards this side, and when he passed by the fish house, he looked at it a few more times, and then quickened his pace.

Tatu suddenly felt that the figure was familiar, and he tried to shout, "Hamill." ”

The figure turned around vigilantly and whispered, "Who? ”

When he saw Tatu's figure clearly, the man couldn't help but be surprised, and said, "You are already here!" ”

"Shh Tatu motioned for him to whisper. "Where have you been, something happened to Fei, do you know it."

"Something happened to Fei?" Hamill was stunned for a moment, and he said calmly: "There is some unusual movement in the lake tonight, it seems that there are soldiers moving nearby, I just went to investigate. ”

Cassius paused for a moment and said, "Soldier? ”

Hamill affirmed: "Heavily armed soldiers." ”

Cassius was a little jealous, "Let's go back to the branch first." ”

In the sanctuary of Angorivin, a nun was trying to feed a bitter herb to Fei's mouth, and after some effort, Fei barely ate half a small bowl of the potion, and although she still did not wake up, her face improved a little.

The nun breathed a sigh of relief and said to Sister Catherine: "She has been poisoned by a rare poison, and her body is in an abnormal state, not only in a coma, but also in a strange feeling of euphoria, for which I can do nothing but relieve some of the symptoms with a neutralizing potion." The key is to wait for the right antidote to the symptoms. ”

"If that's the case, maybe I can help a little bit." Catherine said, unsheathing her saber and approaching the unconscious female guerrilla, her silver pupils faintly turning golden.

"Holy Light, dispel the evil in her body!" The female knight drew her sword and shouted, a force channeling from her body to the sword.

In the air, a small spell symbol gradually formed.

The female knight struggled slightly to cover the formed spell over the female guerrilla, and when all this was done, a little sweat oozed from her forehead.

"Really, I'm still not skilled with this kind of spell." The female knight whispered to herself, and then, she saw that her spell had taken effect on Fei, and the golden symbol covered Fei, helping her to expel some power that did not belong to her body.

Marven's figure flashed by the door of the ward, and his right hand gestured lightly. Catherine understood and walked out.

"We were negligent, and there are clear traces of foreign law in the residence of the parliamentarians." Marvin made a startling revelation.

Despite her mental preparation, Catherine cursed in a low voice, and then, realizing that this was an undignified act, she silently confessed in her heart.

Although the Qiyao Church and the Guerrilla Association have joined forces in the investigation of the mysterious order, and on the surface, they respect Cassius's decision and transfer, but there are still many secret operations that Cassius does not know about.

For example, after obtaining the information obtained by Cassius, he secretly greatly strengthened the investigators of the local templars, and had already conducted a secret investigation of the local topography and important personnel.

Catherine and Marven are both high-ranking knights in the armed organization 'Star Cup Knights' under the Qiyao Church, and they are also the supreme commanders of the detection of the order organization in the Republic of Calvard, reporting directly to the chief knight, and their identities are respected even by the local bishops.

This time, Priest Marven personally went out and visited the aphorism of life in the house of the councilor, and found a secret compartment in the bookshelf, which contained many interesting things.

For example, a smooth terracotta figurine carved with a simple wild man, with only one eye on the face of the villain, in the middle of the eyebrows, is large and round, looking like the legendary cyclops. At first glance, it looks like a tourist souvenir when you go out.

However, the eye on the giant's forehead was also too round, and it looked a little weird.

There are also some ordinary pottery plates, which look similar to ordinary cutlery if it weren't for some strange patterns on them.

In addition, there is a very quaint hardcover book, and the cover of the book is particularly beautifully designed, with two pairs of angel wings and some corresponding geometric symbols up and down, which defend the title of the book.

As soon as Catherine saw the cover of the book, she immediately cried out in surprise:

"Is it the Lost Book? This councillor has such a strange thing! ”

"Sedation, it's an imitation." Marven opened the book, and there was no trace of guiding fluctuations in it, only some ordinary words.

Catherine took it and flipped through a few pages, which were full of ridiculous nonsense, but the typography and writing style were extremely quaint, perhaps a copy of a translated copy, and her heart couldn't help but pound, she didn't expect this operation to involve such a high level.

After the two knights looked at each other for a few seconds, she asked tentatively, "Do you want to tell Cassius about this Eastern information?" ”

For a moment, Marven hesitated.
