In the living room, Abner saw Jane. A completely different Jane than he had known before!

Her shoulder-length blonde hair had become extremely dull, from brilliant to gloomy. Her face, which was once fair and ruddy, had turned a miserable ......

Of course, these are not the most changed. What Abner couldn't believe the most was that Jane's eyes were no longer sunny and cheerful, innocent and lively, and only a piece of cold that could not be dissolved.

Abner didn't need to open the pure white eye to know that the other party was caused by the power of the potion overflowing shortly after he became an extraordinary! And the obvious signs are so great, it means that there are some problems with Jane's advancement process.

After a brief reasoning in his mind, Abner guessed the general truth, and he couldn't help frowning and said, "Jane, you became a 'corpse collector', and you directly used Mr. Grant's extraordinary characteristics?" It's dangerous to advance like this, and those two people didn't remind you? ”

On the other hand, Jane was actually very happy to see Abner coming, and she also had a desire to tell him her grievances and vent her pain, but due to the influence of the remnants of the potion, she couldn't do these intimate behaviors at the moment, so she instinctively ran to Abner, and said in a tone and expression that was as dark as possible: "Abner...... You know that my father is extraordinary! You lied to me and said that my father was volunteering...... You're extraordinary, aren't you? ”

Abner saw Jane's face 'gloomy' running towards him, and her expression was like a 'female ghost', and she almost didn't take a step back and raised her gun to defend herself...... Fortunately, he noticed in time that the other party did not show any signs of attack, and managed his movements, so he slightly stiffened and reached out to support her body as usual.

"Obviously it's the same person, obviously the same actions as before, Jane in the past can give me a relaxed and comfortable mood, but now she makes me feel like a big enemy!"

sighed in his heart, but on the surface, Abner seemed to be completely unaware of Jane's changes, and said helplessly: "Jane, you have to learn to control your behavior, now you are already a 'corpse collector', you really let you bump into me as usual, with your physical fitness strengthened by potions, I am afraid that you can knock me out a meter or two away." ”

"I'm sorry...... Abner, you have changed the subject again, and you have not answered my question yet! Jane apologized weakly, and then seemed to find some of the old feelings because of Abner's unchanged attitude, but her eyes were still cold.

It seems that her personality has not been affected too much, which is not bad...... Abner quietly breathed a sigh of relief, as long as the spirit was not tainted, the residual effects of the potion could be digested sooner or later, at least there would be no danger of getting out of control.

"Didn't you answer my question too? Hehe, yes, I'm extraordinary. And I did find out that your father had embarked on the path of the extraordinary, but he did not hurt anyone else, and I don't want you to have anything to do with the extraordinary, after all, the extraordinary means danger and madness...... That's why I chose to hide part of the truth from you. Well, I didn't lie to you, strictly speaking, Mr. Grant did volunteer, did he? Abner pulled out a smile and said.

Jane nodded with a cold face, but the words she said were so weak that they didn't match the coldness at all: "Abner...... You, don't you want me to be extraordinary? However, I will not be able to take revenge until I become extraordinary......"

Abner sighed and said, "I just don't want you to be in danger...... Well, it doesn't make much sense to talk about that now. And I will not persuade you to give up revenge, although I do not feel the hatred in your heart, but I can understand your pain and sorrow...... I just want to remind you that the extraordinary path is destined to be crazy and dangerous, and you have to be aware of it! ”

"I was told this by Miss Sharon and Mr. Marić...... And don't blame Mr. Marić, who has repeatedly stressed to me the dangers of taking extraordinary properties directly, but I have made up my mind that I will take revenge no matter what! I'm going to kill the werewolf who killed my parents! I'm going to destroy the Rose School once and for all! As she spoke, Jane's already pale face became a little more gloomy, and the temperature in the room seemed to be a little lower.

"I only hope that after the revenge, the innocent and immaculate smile will return to your face." Abner did not comment on her declaration, but said it solemnly.

"Thank you! Abner! Jane's gaze softened a little, but she thought to herself that it would be difficult for her to go back to the way she used to be.

Maturity is often only in a moment. But not everyone is willing to pay the price.

Abner also knew that this was just a good hope of his own, and he didn't dwell on this topic, but asked, "By the way, what did you call me here for today?" I thought it was Marich before I came. ”

Jane wanted to smile, but she couldn't complete the action, and her expression was a little distorted: "Miss Sharon and Mr. Marich have recently needed to hide from enemies and officials, and often change their residences, so it is inconvenient to take me with them, so they arranged for me to stay in Port Enmat temporarily, and asked someone else to teach me occult knowledge...... I've heard them say that it takes a lot of money to buy materials for the promotion of the extraordinary......"

"I can lend you some ......," Abner said directly.

Jane shook her head and said, "I'm not trying to borrow money. My father had whispered to me that if anything happened to the family, he would ask me to go to the basement of a house in St. George's to find his belongings...... Now that I think about it, my father may have had some premonition at that time. ”

Could it be that he became an extraordinary person at that time and sensed the danger of this road, so he prepared the back road in advance? Abner habitually analyzed a wave.

At this time, Jane looked at Abner seriously and said, "Abner, it's inconvenient for me to go out now, I want you to help me bring me what my father left behind!" ”

"That's fine, but why not entrust Marić to them? Know that the less people know about your situation, the safer! The punishers are looking for you! Abner tactfully admonished Jane so that she could recognize her situation.

"Because I didn't believe in Marić and Sharon, even though they saved me...... Although they were kind enough to repay me...... But they are also members of the so-called Rose School! I know I'm a little unreasonable, but I can't contain my anger at them! At this, Jane looked at Abner a little nervously and said, "Abner, do you think I'm bad?" ”

"No, that's human nature! But I'm sure you'll be able to figure it out and restrain your anger. After all, it really has little to do with them. Abner smiled and comforted. It's also true, whether Sharon goes to attack the Lust Cult or not that night, that werewolf will not be able to control his desire to attack the Grant family.

"I'll try my best, because even if I'm bad, they've always been patient with me...... For now, though, I only trust you, Abner! That's why I took the risk to meet you! Jane said as she handed Abner a note with the address already written down in her hand.

Abner quickly weighed it, and felt that there should not be much danger in the arrangement reserved by Mr. Grant at most, so he nodded solemnly: "Don't worry, I will not live up to this trust!" ”

……

At 1 p.m., since the steam metro had ceased service, it took Abner twice as long as usual to arrive in St. George's district. That's it, or because of the 'walking' of shortcuts!

Walking ashore from the Tasok River, Abner lifted the thousand-pound hat on his head and turned off its extraordinary powers. After checking his belongings again, he couldn't help but think of a joke he had read in the newspaper:

"A gentleman who had just arrived in Beckland got lost in the thick smog and had to ask the gentleman, who was passing by and wet, 'How to go on the Tassok River,' to which the gentleman replied very kindly: 'Go straight and don't stop, I just swam up from there.'"

"Although I didn't swim and I wasn't wet, I did just come up!" Abner smiled self-deprecatingly, and walked straight to the address Jane had given.

16 Chappell Street is a detached house with a small garden, and the rent is about £2 a week, and Mr. Grant rents such a house to hide his back, which is not a bad money!

Looking at the target house from afar, Abner complained a few words in his heart, but did not rush in.

He cautiously walked around the house a few times, then opened his pure white eyes to observe the details, and did another 'scene backtrack' to confirm that there was indeed no ambush, before carefully digging out the key from under a flower pot in the garden, opening the door and walking inside.

As soon as he entered the door, Abner, who had already turned on his vision, saw a terrifying ghost with a hideous appearance, sensing his breath, and then rushing towards him. Abner had expected this, and while chanting 'unsheathed' in the ancient Hermetic script, transforming the cane sword into a long sword, he calmly retreated to the door with the speed of the cane sword blessing him.

And the ghost only pounced a few steps in front of the door before being restrained by some force, unable to move on.

"Sure enough, there are guards, do you rely on your breath to distinguish those who enter? If Jane came over, she wouldn't be attacked. Well, an unknown breed of earthbound spirit is just a living target. After a quick mental assessment, Abner lifted his hat, and several wind blades appeared out of thin air, instantly scratching several obvious scars on the ghost's body.

The ghost was not very intelligent, and immediately after being really hurt, he became furious, and scratched at Abner with his teeth and claws, but unfortunately it was bound in the room and could not get close at all.

"The Wind Blade is not a pure energy attack after all, it can hurt it, but its power is not greatly reduced...... It's better to deal with ghosts and the like, or the teacher's sun brooch! After sighing, Abner leaned on his hat and released several 'wind ropes' to barely restrain the ghost, and then raised his sword and cut the ghost in half with a single slash!

This 'Cane Sword' has some of the abilities of the 'Twilight Giant' pathway sequence 8, which not only blesses physical fitness, but also helps the wielder weaken some opponents' extraordinary effects, such as the 'physical immunity' of the ghost.

"After all, it's just a weak ghost that can even drive Sequence 9!" Abner took a closer look to make sure that the ghost had indeed been killed, then turned the sword back into a cane, and then followed the instructions on the note to find the entrance to the basement.

The basement area is not large, only about a dozen square meters, and there is nothing in it except a box.

Abner carefully opened the box, and while making sure there was no problem, he also counted and assessed the contents.

"500 gold pounds in cash, about 300 gold pounds worth of gems and jewelry, potion recipes for Sequence 9 'The Corpse Collector' and Sequence 8 'Gravedigger', and a fake ID for 'Byam'...... This can be counted as a treasure! ”

See what Mr. Grant left behind. Abner was a little surprised, and couldn't help but wonder where the other party got so much money. That Mr. Bryan gave it? But what had he done to make the demigod so generous?

After thinking for a long time and still having no clue, Abner secretly laughed at his occupational disease again, and put the contents of the box into the bag that had been prepared a long time ago.

After doing this, Abner carefully cleaned up the traces he had left behind, and then quickly returned to Jane's temporary residence in the bridge district, and handed over all the things to Jane.

"Jane, when are you leaving Beckland?" Abner asked with concern as she looked at the girl who had already put everything away.

"I'm afraid I'll have to leave this afternoon...... Mr. Marić said that he did not know if the authorities would use any extraordinary means to find my whereabouts, and that the sooner I went, the safer it would be. Moreover, I also want to become strong as soon as possible! Jane said after a pause.

"Indeed!" Abner felt that the punishment was investigating the loss, and if he changed the mechanical heart, if he asked the dog to lick the mirror, he was afraid that even he would have to be exposed.

Of course, if you change the heart of the machine, the teacher will be able to speak.

"We ...... Will we never see each other again? At this time, Jane's cold face showed a little bit of a past look.

"No, I'll go to see you in Port Enmat!" Abner smiled and comforted her.

……

In the afternoon, Abner did not personally go to see Jane off of Beckland, for that would do him or Jane no good. Although Jane, who is a friend, is temporarily away from him, now that the other party has found a goal and is willing to work hard for it, there is nothing else he can do but bless.

As a result, Abner quickly calmed down and devoted himself to the work and study tasks given by the teacher, as well as the analysis of '2-081'.

Ten days later, after Abner helped the teacher successfully complete some commissions such as losing cats and dogs, finding objects and catching rapes, he gradually became famous in the neighborhood.

The day, Monday, June 25. A charismatic and beautiful woman walks into Detective Issinger Stanton's office.
