"66 Dorton Street, North District." Abner bowed slightly, he actually knew this address, in the original book, Dr. Allen had taken Klein there to find Will Ensettin when he was haunted by bad luck, but unfortunately they went late, and the little snake had already restarted.

He asked Mr. Scudder just to make sure again, after all, the butterfly effect he had caused was not small, and it was normal for something to change.

When he returned to his room, Abner was about to take out the Necronomicon and study it carefully, but suddenly he saw an endless gray mist.

Immediately before his eyes appeared the image of "Sun" Deric praying for sacrifice, and on the altar was a green hexagonal crystal the size of a pebble.

The crystallization of the phantom of a thousand arts? The "Sun" has changed hands? Great, now all the materials of "Erudito" are really ready!

However, it's been less than two months since I was promoted to the "Keeper of the Know", and the potion hasn't been digested......

Thinking of this, Abner resolutely followed the pre-conceived plan, bowed his head and prayed:

"Dear Mr. 'Fool', I want the crystallization of the Thousand Magic Phantoms to stay in your realm for the time being, and I am willing to pay two pages of the 'Russell Diary' to present to you at the Tarot meeting next week."

Since Miss Fanny said she could get Rosell's manuscript from Emma, she should be able to hand it over to me within this week......

But even if she didn't get it, it didn't matter, it was a big deal to forge two more pages.

Two or three seconds later, a deep and majestic voice sounded in his ears:

"Yes."

"Thank you very much, Mr. Fool." The corners of Abner's mouth curled up slightly, and he tapped a few times on his chest. After all, he didn't know what the gesture of the "fool" was, and he couldn't draw a crimson moon.

……

On Tuesday morning, Abner put on a clown mask after breakfast and took the subway to the North End.

Because the Ensette's family is likely to be investigated by the night watchmen in the future, Abner did not use his true face.

Speaking of which, since the "Joker" mask can re-pinch his face, Abner has pinched himself a face of "Iron Man" Tony in his previous life. Of course, because the "craftsmanship" is still somewhat lacking, it is only eighty or ninety percent similar.

After arriving at the Garden Villa at 66 Dowton Street, Abner did not choose to pull the doorbell, but directly simulated "stealth" and "open the door" to enter the house.

But the strange thing is that he walked up and down the whole villa, and he didn't see the figure in a wheelchair.

Will isn't there? He doesn't want to see me? Abner frowned, then walked to the location of the gate, using "scene backtracking".

Images flashed by, and Abner quickly found what he was looking for:

I saw a maid in a black and white dress pushing a wheelchair out of the living room, and on the wheelchair sat a child less than ten years old.

"Young Master, you're going to the hospital from today onwards...... You, you have to take care of yourself. The little maid began to weep as she spoke.

"Don't cry, Sarah. Let's draw a card. The child's face showed no frustration in his face, but he comforted the other with a smile, and then skillfully shuffled and cut the cards, and sent them to the maid.

The little maid pursed her lips and obediently pulled one out of it.

"What about the 'wheel of fortune' in the right position, it seems that you will soon be able to seize the opportunity to get a new job, and the new employer will be good to you." The little boy said with a smile.

After speaking, the little boy suddenly glanced in the direction of the door, and then said meaningfully, "This positive 'wheel of fortune' is enough, so you don't need to go to the hospital to find me." ”

"What?" The little maid said blankly.

"It's nothing, it's just saying goodbye to my future friends." The little boy said with a smile.

……

At this point, Abner was sure that Will's last words should have been to himself, and that he must have seen from 'fate' that I would come here to go back, so he said a few more words.

This point in time should be Will's last days before the "restart", and it is also the time when he and Ulorius are fighting the most fiercely in some area that he does not yet understand......

So He doesn't want me to meet Him at this time?

Hey, the fight between the "Mercury Serpents" is not something I can get involved in right now, so it's better to follow the advice......

With a deep sigh, Abner turned his attention back to the interpretation of the "Wheel of Fortune" card.

The "wheel of fortune" in the right position symbolizes luck, good timing, being rich or expensive, being good at improvisation, promising promotion, a fateful meeting, love at first sight, and a happy marriage......

That sounds good, but does the prospect of promotion mean that my reputation as a "hero detective" is going to be even louder?

And the fateful meeting...... Is it me and "1-025"?

Can this also be considered good luck?

Abner secretly complained twice, although he also knew that his blind guess was actually unreliable.

……

Meanwhile, inside Beckland Hospital, a tall, thin, and indifferent doctor with gold-rimmed glasses is patrolling the ward.

He is a well-known surgeon, Alan Creese.

Alan walked into a single room and saw the little boy sitting on the bed playing tarot cards, and his cold face gradually softened.

He stepped forward, trying to squeeze out a smile and said, "Will, how are you feeling today?" ”

The kid named Will looked up at him for a moment, then suddenly sighed and said, "Doctor, I'm really not nervous about the operation. ”

Alan looked at this somewhat awkward child, shook his head secretly, and said, "It's not interesting for you to play tarot cards alone, take me one." ”

Will stopped what he was doing, looked at the doctor steadily, and said seriously, "Are you sure?" ”

Seeing Dr. Allen nodding, Will unfolded the tarot card in his hand and said, "You can draw one." ”

Dr. Allen cooperated with a card to make Will relax.

"It's the 'wheel of fortune' that is reversed."

Will looked at him, smiled innocently and said:

"Doctor, your luck will go bad."

……

It was already one o'clock in the afternoon when he returned to the Garden House on Kingst Street in Jowood, and because he thought that Mr. Evan Bingley might visit in the afternoon, Abner did not go out again, but concentrated on studying the Necronomicon in the hope of getting any clues from it.

Although there was a hint from Mother Earth and the "Mercury Serpent" gave him "luck", Abner did not feel that he could "lie down and win...... And the gift of fate has always marked the chips already in the past, and it certainly doesn't hurt to make more preparations and rely less on others.

However, as the afternoon passed, Mr. Bingley did not come again, not knowing whether something had been delayed, or whether the problem had been solved.

But Abner didn't take it to heart, because he had more important things to do

In the afternoon, Miss Fanny sent an invitation to dinner at an Intis-style restaurant.

Abner knew that the other party should have obtained the "Russell Manuscript", so he gladly went to the appointment.

……

7 p.m. inside Senna Restaurant in Hilston.

Abner took a sip of the white wine from Marceek, which was said to be produced in Intis and was actually analyzed in the "Pure White Eye", and said with a smile to Miss Fanny opposite:

"Thank you for your hospitality, I wonder what Fanny came out of me for?"

"Can't I ask you out for dinner if there's nothing to do?" Fanny teased at first, then took out five rubbed sheets of paper from her purse, handed them to Abner, and said, "This is the Russell manuscript you wanted, and Emma only collected so much because she was only interested in it." ”

Abner took the manuscript, but didn't immediately look at it, because he didn't want to reveal that he could actually read it.

"By the way, Emma will go to the royal library tomorrow morning to check the materials, and she should be able to find what you need by then...... So, she asked you to meet tomorrow night in the Beckland University Library. Fanny added at this time.

"At night? Beckland University Library? Abner subconsciously repeated. There's nothing wrong with him, but ......

Why do the ladies I know like to talk about things in the middle of the night?
