659 Happy New Year
But Abner was sure that the sudden appearance of the fog was not a hallucination, and inexplicably he felt somewhat familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere.
While he was thinking, the heroic woman opposite seemed to come back to her senses, she nodded at Abner, who had changed into Hugh, and said with a smile: "It's very similar, but it's a little taller." ”
With that, she stopped and walked towards an office building in the base.
I also know it's a little high...... But with the abilities I can simulate so far, there's really nothing I can do!
With a sneer, Abner thought as he boarded the carriage he had called:
Judging by her appearance and clothing, it should be Hugh's boss, the youngest sister of George III, Her Royal Highness Vera.
She recognized me as a pretence but didn't debunk it? Is it because of Hugh?
However, the secret of this princess who has never appeared in the original book may not be small......
And what is that fog? It feels both familiar and dangerous to me...... Could it be something left over from a previous traverser?
With doubts in his mind, Abner made today's "prophecy", but he did not get any results......
His heart was shocked, because it meant that either there was a very high level of power interfering with the princess's fate, or her fate was "hidden......
Either way, it shows that this Princess Vera is not simple!
And such a not simple character seems to attach great importance to Hugh...... and even leaned on as a confidant...... Why, exactly? Is there anything special about Hugh?
Instead of returning to the East End immediately, Abner let the coachman take him to the rented house in Hugh and Furth in Jowood.
At the same time, Her Royal Highness Vera, who had stepped into the office building, sighed slightly and said to herself silently:
"It turned out to be him!
"Hehe, Hermes tried for a long time, and he was excluded......
"It's not time yet......
"At least until he becomes a demigod......"
……
Jowood district, 15 Minsk Street.
Klein descended to the first floor and sat in the living room, feeling the warmth of the fireplace.
He swayed quietly in his easy chair, not reading the newspaper, not flipping through the magazine, not reading the book.
He was waiting for Miss Sharon to arrive...... He was about to leave Beckland, and he still had some things to discuss with her, so he sent her an invitation to meet her through Mr. "Fool".
Just as Klein estimated that Miss Sharon was about to arrive, the sound of the doorbell jingled.
Hey? Doesn't Miss Sharon knock on the window every time she comes over? Why did you ring the doorbell this time? Well...... Probably not Sharon?
Wearing a home shirt and cashmere vest, Klein got up and walked outside, and in the process, the visitor predicted by the "clown" ability was a little unexpected to him.
He opened the door and laughed:
"Good afternoon, Emlyn, aren't you supposed to help out at the Harvest Chapel at this time?"
It was Emlyn White, a vampire with his hair combed back diagonally and a somewhat feminine handsomeness.
Hearing Klein's greeting, the arrogant guy's expression suddenly froze, and it was not easy to recover.
"I've got something to ask you, Sherlock, Moriarty, Detective!" Emlin spat out word by word.
After inviting him into the living room, Klein returned to his easy chair and asked with a smile:
"What's the matter? The consultation costs £1 but cannot exceed 1 hour. ”
Emlyn White did not pay attention to his words, and said in deep thought:
"There's a big guy who told me to do something...... Although that incident can help me solve the hidden danger, it also contains a high risk.
"I don't have any friends, and I'm afraid my parents are worried, and you're a well-informed detective...... What do you suggest? Rejection, or acceptance? ”
Big shot again? I've been a bit "allergic" to this appellation lately...... After all, it's nothing good when you hear it...... Except, of course, when the other party pays.
However, it is clear that the big man in Emlin's mouth cannot be Prince Edsak...... Who will it be? Bloodline high-level? Klein pondered and said:
"With only the word 'thing', I can't give any advice."
Emlyn White was silent for a few seconds, gritted her teeth, and lowered her voice:
"Something to do with the 'fool'......"
"Huh?" Klein almost thought that he had misheard, and after confirming that what the other party said was indeed a "fool", he used the data he casually made up to scare the vampire in front of him, making him more intuitively realize how dangerous a great being of unknown origin was, and persuaded him to dispel his thoughts as soon as possible, or find another way to solve the spiritual implication of believing in "Mother Earth Goddess".
For this reason, he did not hesitate to hack himself a few words.
After listening to this, Emlyn indulged in a heavy expression for more than ten seconds before he said:
"If I choose to try, it will definitely not be for myself, but for the entire Bloodline! Take the opportunity to ask the faith of Mother Earth Goddess is only incidental ......"
For the good of the community? This routine is so familiar...... Mr. "Hanged Man" used this excuse when he fooled the "sun" to fish in the exploration......
It's just that one is to instigate others to take risks, and the other is to instigate others to fish......
So, this kid must have been fooled! Klein came to a conclusion in his heart, and said with a smile:
"A vampire who is not strong has a chance to save the entire race, do you believe it yourself?"
"Bloodline, Bloodline!" Emlin emphasized, "Moreover, my strength is not bad, it is equivalent to your human Sequence 7, and I am still good at fighting!" ”
With that, he got up to say goodbye, leaving behind the phrase "the suitcase from the last trade materials as a deduction for consultation", and left Klein's residence.
Klein only reacted at this time, and muttered to himself, "Mr. 'Tower' didn't look for me when his suitcases were gone...... What a stingy vampire in comparison......"
But before he could finish his chatter, out of the corner of Klein's eye, he suddenly caught a glimpse of Miss Sharon's figure on the sofa, making himself a cup of black tea and drinking it in small sips.
She saw Klein looking over, put down the teacup, and said meaningfully, "Praying to Mr. 'Fool' is equivalent to ......."
This is what Klein said when he was blackening himself just now, and she did not repeat it completely, so as not to be disrespectful to Mr. "Fool".
Miss, when did you come and how much did you hear? Klein smiled awkwardly and explained:
"I'm just trying to dispel him...... And Mr. 'Fool' won't mind ......"
Sharon shook her head and whispered, "Believe in the power of the gods...... Whether to accept him or not is a decision to be made by Mr. Fool, not you. ”
But don't believe in the mercy of the gods? I've heard this "proverb"...... But I'm really making a decision for myself.
Knowing that Sharon was kind-hearted, he was worried that he would lose his "favor", so Klein didn't argue, but said kindly: "I'll pay attention." ”
Later, knowing what Sharon needed to wait for in Beckland, Crane would not leave easily, entrusted some of his own unfinished business to the other party.
For example, paying old Kohler informants on a regular basis, such as escrow some of his shares in the bicycle company, such as continuing to spy on Pound from the baron......
Sharon also carefully wrote them down one by one and reassured him.
After explaining these things, seeing that Miss Sharon was about to leave, Klein smiled and said:
"I would like to say to you in advance, Happy New Year.
"In the meantime, please bring this blessing to Marić."
Sharon was silent for two seconds, pursed her lips, and responded in a fluttering voice:
"Happy New Year."
With that, her figure faded and disappeared into Room 1.
……
In the Godforsaken Lands, the final hall with an altar under the Temple of the True Creator, Darerick sees the little boy crying "Help me" again.
Taking advantage of the chief's deliberations, he was the first to ask where the little boy came from—he had crossed the sea by boat from the port of Enmat.
And just as Abner and Alger expected, the words "Port Enmat" and "Sea" that came out of the boy's mouth seemed to unfold a picture of a new world in front of Chief Colin, and he finally saw the hope for the future of Silver City.
Then, based on the boy's recollections, he deduced that in order to reach the seashore, he needed to pass through the ruins of the "Giant's Court"!
At this time, Deric, with the chief's suspicious and frightened gaze, took out the gear book and asked the little boy:
"Do you remember it?
"If you remember, can you tell me where you picked it up?"
