Chapter 170: Night
"So, author, why don't you change my setting to a magical genius or something."
"That will be until you remain a virgin until you are thirty years old"
Spell books are different from ordinary books, even if they have an extraordinary reading speed, they will drop a lot in terms of spell books, Ke Dong estimated that it will take at least twenty days or so to read these in front of him, which is still based on the premise of not thinking about it.
But if it was too naΓ―ve to simply say that the past twenty days were too naΓ―ve, perhaps because of the effect of someone's protagonist's aura, or perhaps because of the destiny of heaven, a huge whirlpool slowly rushed towards Ke Dong.
As agreed, Kou Dong stayed in the Tibetan History until dark, and Daphne accompanied him until dark, after which he took his farewell to Daphne and planned to lead Michelia to see the dark night of the City of Light.
As the most prosperous city on the main road, even when it is dark, the pedestrians on the street are still undiminished, but the residents of the City of Light have always lacked nightlife, and some industries that serve the people are also frightened by the church to come and develop business, but it is indeed a holy place for sightseeing, because the night sky here is so beautiful.
The sky of the city of light is clear all year round, especially at night, there is no cloud at all, which makes the stars in the sky exposed to people's bright night, Ke Dong as an artist, for this beautiful scenery, there is no resistance, many residents have built rooftops on their houses, and there are special high platforms in the city, in order to facilitate travelers here, of course, there are also indispensable double styles, which can be used by some young men to pursue their favorite girls.
So there are generally no vacancies in the facilities here, but after a series of persuasions from Ke Dong, and a little bit of money temptation, and less threat of force, a couple who have nothing to do and occupy the facilities leave obediently.
If there is any best posture to watch the night sky, it is undoubtedly lying down, in view of the above situation, there are special soft seats on the rooftop, of course, if you are excited and want to come on the spot, then the surrounding audience does not mind the experience of watching a live broadcast.
So the development of this kind of thing is generally what the female protagonist snuggles up to the male protagonist, and then the male protagonist gently gives the female protagonist a gentle face What is the constellation?,What is the name of the star?,Or the female protagonist with a happy face tells the male protagonist that this piece of sky is his own treasure or something.γ
But the two situations in front of him are obviously not suitable for Ke Dong and Michelia, it is impossible to want Ke Dong to give others a little knowledge of popular science, his iceberg face that has not changed for 10,000 years is enough to scare away all the atmosphere, and the heroine is the kind of person who does not have any stories, so how can this situation be broken.
It's just that the two parties are unconscious, Ke Dong and Michelia lie quietly on the soft mat, neither of them speaks, just quietly staring at the starry night sky.
"Now, Ke Dong, do you like me?"
It's hellish difficulty at the beginning, I don't seem to be very good at a straight ball..
Ke Dong looked at Michelia with a dead fish eye, at this time Michelia had already taken off the veil, and the beauty that did not belong to mortals was presented in front of him, which made Ke Dong's thinking pause a little.
In this atmosphere, such a beautiful heroine, even a piece of wood will say yes, but, he is Ke Dong.
"I don't know."
Kedong shook his head slightly, he didn't want to deceive Michelia in this situation.
"Really?"
Michelia, who was familiar with Kedong's memories, did not feel strange at all, on the contrary, she was grateful to Kedong for telling the truth.
"Ke Dong, I know, I know everything about you, although I can't share anything for you, but at least I understand you."
"I've tried to recreate the pain you remember, but forgive me, I fainted less than a tenth of the time."
Ke Dong gently put his hand on Michelia's head, and stroked it slowly as if he had been comforting a kitten.
"It doesn't matter."
Michelia sat up, her hands bracing her sides on either side, her eyes clouded with tears that shone brighter than the night sky.
"I know everything, but there's really nothing I can do but watch you suffer like this."
"However, my feelings for you are not only love, I am willing to give everything for you."
"Please let me follow you forever, even if I can't relieve your pain, even if I can't do anything, but as long as I have your command, I can be crazy about it."
"So, please stick to it."
Ke Dong turned his face away, deliberately not looking into Michelia's eyes, he didn't know if he could meet the expectations of the person in front of him.
"Please look at me."
Michelia forcefully broke Kedong's face, so that Kedong had to face her.
"Everything I have is given by you, including my name and my existence, so you don't need to feel any guilt about me, if my existence upsets you, then you can kill me at any time."
The next day, Caudon and Michelia returned to the Papal Chamber.
Why?,You said what happened after kissing last night.,The author doesn't know.,The protagonist hid my word directly after that.,It wasn't until I promised him not to write backwards that he found it out for me.,So,If you want to know what happened after that.,Please ask the protagonist yourself.γ
Ahem, let's get back to business.
According to the agreement, Daphne was already waiting for them at the door of the Pope's Hall, and Daphne, who had always been expressionless, said a message coldly:
"The Papal Hall has been stolen."
β.β
β..β
"I said you're not kidding, the Papal Hall hasn't been stolen for many years, and now it's stolen when I come over, doesn't that mean I did it?"
Devany shook her head and said:
"No, after my analysis, your motive for committing the crime should be relatively small, because the theft was a book--- "Jutenheim's Gaze", as one of the spell books, you originally had the right to watch it freely, so you are almost not suspicious."
"Yes, but if something else was stolen, I shouldn't be less suspicious."
Devany turned her head and said:
"Probably, after all, you are the only outsider who has come to the Pope's Hall recently and has this stealing strength."
"Well, it seems like I have to thank the thieves as well."
"Come with me, the Pope wants to discuss with you again."
Ke Dong spread his hands, it was nothing more than about this theft, after all, this can be regarded as a great insult to the Pope's Hall, and the current Pope can't sit still, if even the Pope's Hall can't guarantee that it is absolutely safe, then the sense of security of the residents on the mainland will drop a notch.
At this time, the Pope had finished breakfast and was contemplating the events in his room, when he heard a knock on the door and knew that it was Caudong and Daphne who had arrived.
"Please come in, my friend."
Caudong was still sitting in the chair next to the table as he had done yesterday, with Michelia standing to the side and Devany standing next to the Pope.
"My child, Devany must have told you what happened."
Ke Dong nodded.
"That's good, I want to ask you to help investigate this matter, after all, this is also a scandal in the church, and too many people in the church can't know about it, so I can only ask you and Daphne to investigate this matter together, can you understand what I mean?"
Ke Dong smiled, if this matter spreads, it will indeed have a big impact on the church, but does all this have anything to do with Ke Dong's dime, no, so why should Ke Dong care about the church's.
"Alright, Your Holiness the Pope, I promised."
Hey, whether you're listening to me or not has nothing to do with you.
Ke Dong ignored the author's words and said:
"However, Your Holiness Pope, I also have conditions, and no one else is allowed to interfere in this matter, as long as Daphne and I handle this matter."
Considering that the fact that this matter was known to the other bishops could cause a series of fluctuations, the Pope agreed without relentlessness.
The Pope Room, guest restaurant.
Devany frowned and looked at Codon and asked:
"Why would you say yes, you guy, you're not the kind of person who helps people in any way."
Ke Dong smiled wickedly and said:
"This can only be blamed on him, when it was not good, but during the time when I visited the Pope, through it like this, I can't study my texts properly now, so this is a naked provocation to me."
Devany tilted her head, she inexplicably felt that the man in front of her was very charming, evil and uninhibited, arrogant, not playing cards according to common sense at all, reckless but behind everything there was a careful plan, fortunately she had already made an agreement with Ke Dong, and being an enemy of people like Ke Dong was the last thing Devina wanted to see.
Coincidentally, I don't want to be an enemy of someone like you
"Okay, in that case, then listen to you, where do we start first?"
"Don't worry, there's still a little something.."
Devany looked curiously at what Ke Dong was rummaging in his personal space, it seemed to be something from a long time ago, and Ke Dong almost searched through the personal space before he could barely find it.
"What's, what is this?"
Devany asked with a puzzled look as she looked at the black-rimmed glasses in front of her.
Most of the eyes on the mainland are unilateral gold wire glasses, and there are almost no bilateral ones, and only a few people will use them, but how Dephne feels awkward about looking at this pair of square black-framed glasses in Ke Dong's hand, and with her experience, she can't see any difference in this pair of glasses.
Ke Dong explained expressionlessly:
"This is Ji Liye found someone to make it for me, saying that it has special magic, but I haven't felt a little bit since those days, but out of love for Ji Liet, I heard her say that this thing has a very high bonus when solving the case, and there is a matching spell, it seems that "there is only one truth", in short, I tried a few times, and I inexplicably felt that I was much smoother on the way to the cameo detective, so I tried again this time. β
Devany had a loveless expression on her face, as if she was desperate for the person in front of her, and couldn't help but sigh.
Anyway, why is the person in front of me sometimes cold like a piece of ice, and sometimes he is inexplicably unconsciously cute, and I still think it's a little cute, is this the contrast that a certain nun mentioned in the chat?
Looking at Ke Dong's slightly funny face after putting on his glasses, an inexplicable word poured out of her soul.
"Ah~, Rabbit Mi-chan's eyes instantly sharpened."
"Huh? What are you talking about? β
Devany waved her hand, signaling him not to care about herself, because she didn't understand why she was saying that.
"Okay, let's go to the library first this time."
After the incident just now, Daphne's energy was exhausted, and she now only felt that there was an endless amount of groove to vomit.
The library was very clean, and the copy of "The Eye of Eutenheim" was still sitting quietly on the shelves after Chydon left yesterday, although it was stolen that night.
Ke Dong stared at the empty space on the bookshelf where the original "Eye of Eutenheim" was locked, and organized his thoughts little by little.
The other books on the shelves are very neat, and there is no trace of passivity, and it stands to reason that if a book is pulled out of the bookshelf in the morning, then the other books will move a little bit back, but now it is like a book thief who has sorted out the bookshelf after stealing the book, or that book has disappeared out of thin air.
Colton and Daphne used detection magic to probe the bookshelves several times, not even letting go of the surrounding bookshelves, but as the two expected, the book thief did not leave a single evidence of the crime.
Come to think of it, how can someone who steals in the Papal Hall be the kind of fool who doesn't clean up the scene.
Seeing that the search was fruitless, Ke Dong sat back on the chair in the library and began to straighten things out from the beginning, which is a habit of Ke Dong, once he finds that he can't move forward, it is likely that some important things have been ignored before.
"If you want to start with general theft, it is nothing more than three questions, first, who is the thief, second, where is the book, third, why did he steal the book, as long as one of them is figured out, then this button can be solved, but, is it really that simple, provocateur"
"Ignoring the other factors, the first two questions are not in a position to start for the time being, but the three words..."
"Miss Daphne, can you tell me what's in that Eye of Eutenheim?"
Daphne, who was sitting on the side, thought for a moment and said:
"The Eye of Eutenheim is also a strange flower in the library, and it is all about "seeing". β
"See? Can you make it clearer? β
"In other words, the spell in it is to teach the caster how to see, to see every move in this world, including the trajectory of other magic, the decomposition of sword skills, and so on."
"So, isn't this book amazing?"
Devany looked at Colton and said:
"That's right, it's very powerful, but there are also extremely harsh conditions, that is, the toughness of the caster's eyes, with human eyes, it's impossible to learn even the upper third of the spells, so this book has always only had reference value, but not much use value."
"Yes, what kind of eyes do you need to learn, do you need the eyes of an angel or a demon to learn?"
"If you are an angel or a demon, you can learn at most half of the magic in it, and there are only some talented races that can fully play its role, but those races have long disappeared in the long river of time, and it is estimated that there are not even scum left, because that is what happened before the human race fought for the hegemony of the continent."
"Yes, is it possible that they are descendants of those races, or are they half-bloods?"
Devine pondered for a moment and said:
"Pure-bloods are basically impossible, but if it is some half-bloods, it is possible, but until now, the blood of those ancient races in them should have been almost diluted, and it is impossible to come and steal this book out of thin air."
"Yes, that is, those who have a motive to commit a crime do not have that kind of power, and those who have that kind of power do not have a motive to commit a crime. Interesting. β
"Let's go, let's go ask the guards here, they won't tell me honestly just by my words."
Devany shrugged her shoulders and said that I slapped her face, you are free.. It means that it is all up to you.
