Chapter 24: Black Divination

The surface of the silver mirror behind the note showed a black glow, as if it could reflect the darkness in everyone's heart.

The three of them seemed to have suddenly lost their sight, and they didn't seem to notice anything unusual. Just like that, one was half kneeling, and two were standing, not saying a word.

After a long time, Naya suddenly stood up, silently extinguished the candle, and put the candle and the silver mirror back in their original places. In the process, Welch and Klein remain motionless, like two lifelike wax figures.

When Naya walked back to the coffee table, Welch suddenly moved, like a freshly wound doll. One of them walked towards the bathroom, the other towards the wall, one step at a time, stiff and straight, each step with the same pace and distance.

The young and beautiful girl walked into the bathroom, turned on the faucet, and filled her face with water, as if she was ready to clean her beautiful face. She put the basin on the sink and slowly buried her face in it without the slightest hesitation or hesitation. The icy water overflowed the eyes, nose, and mouth, and eventually overflowed the basin, wetting the long, silky brown hair.

The chubby Welch walked to the wall, leaned forward, threw his neck back, and slammed his head against the wall. The impact came after blow, as if an invisible force was using Welch's head as a hammer to shatter the wall. First the red flowed down, then the white and yellow, and finally the skull shards fell out.

Crane, who was standing dumbfounded, also suddenly acted, he walked to a closet, pulled out a brass-colored revolver from a hidden corner, stuffed it into his jacket pocket, walked back to the coffee table, picked up the dark black cover note, put it in the other pocket, and then mechanically walked to the door and walked out of Welch's house.

……

Dressed in Rune's usual brown dress decorated with lace and lace, and a black gauze hat that matched the aesthetic of the era, Bernadette walked down White Oak Avenue to Main Street, ready to go to the point of contact for the dawn of the elements, the old bookstore of Old Wynne.

Wang Zichuan followed Bernadette's side as usual. Along the way, they pointed at the pedestrians, especially the young girls' body shapes and dresses.

"Can you not wear that old hat, it doesn't match your temperament at all, if Russell were here, he wouldn't allow you to cover his beautiful little princess with this ugly hat and black veil."

After Wang Zichuan finished commenting on the girls passing by, he began to comment on Bernadette's hat again.

"It's the easiest and least noticeable way to hide your face." Bernadette was in a rare mood to answer the boring questions of the god of lights.

"Can you change to a younger one? Light-colored, white gauze or something. ”

"I'm over a hundred years old."

"Uh...... Young, young, I don't know how old I am. Wang Zichuan was very embarrassed, and he also felt ashamed that he had been sealed for countless years and had achieved nothing, and then quickly changed the topic.

"What are you going to do this time? I really didn't expect that the mysterious queen was actually an otaku, there was nothing important, I don't think you want to go out at all. ”

"Investigate something."

"About what? Your promotion ceremony? ”

"Well, I'll soon leave Port Plitz and go to Beckland, where the secrets of the royal family can only be found."

Hearing this, Wang Zichuan sneered.

"If you want me to say, you should have listened to me a long time ago, and that night you went with me to catch the king's dog's legs, and if you ask the psychic, you will know everything."

Wang Zichuan changed from Bernadette's left to the right, and continued:

"You don't want to kill innocents, I know, he's not a good guy, do you know what he's going to do? Do you know what's on the cargo ship he's on? You don't know anything! "Such a big piece of extraordinary properties with divinity just ran away, and the ducks that reached their beaks flew away!

Bernadette soon came to the most discordant bookstore on the main street.

Walking straight into the bookstore and not seeing the salted fish owner, Bernadette looked around and saw a half-bald skull behind the bestseller display board.

When Bernadette walked to the stand, she saw old Wynne, with only a few gray hair left, dozing off in a chaise longe.

Bernadette was about to wake up old Wynne, suddenly, the bookstore half-covered left half of the door was vigorously pushed open, a thin body, unkempt hair, black circles under the eyes rushed into the bookstore, walked directly to the old Wynne's chaise longue, reached out and grabbed the collar of the old Wynne's chest, trying to grab the shopkeeper who cheated money, and then threw it to the ground to relieve his anger, however, his shameful failure, he did not have the strength to grab the old man on the recliner at all.

But he didn't stop talking, while yelling: "Liar! Old liar! Tell me what's in this book? Damn it! I'm going to smash this bookstore! ”

The salted fish boss was already awake at this time, and he saw the mysterious queen standing aside at a glance.

But then the young man was yelling at him, cursing him for his deception, and speaking of anger, even took out a thin book from his coat pocket and smashed it in the face of the bookstore owner.

Old Wynn was very embarrassed, if this was normal, he not only didn't care, but also laughed loudly: he didn't study well at a young age, he had problems with his body when he saw it, he didn't know how to maintain it, and he wanted to see something exciting.

But now it was different, and he had to reassure the young man with words, and at the same time took out a few sular bills from the box in the cash register and stuffed them into the young man, and promised him that once he had the book he wanted, he would keep it for him, and he would give him a discount.

Old Wynne was as fierce as a tiger for a while, and quickly sent the young man who had disgraced him away.

Then with a look of shame, he said to Bernadette, "What do you command?" ”

"Investigate the situation of a cargo ship that arrived in port three nights ago."

Bernadette couldn't fully trust the god of lights, after all, it was a seal with a very bad character. She has been at the helm of the Wishing Lamp for more than a hundred years, and the recent eerie activation of the Wishing Lamp reminds her of the prophecy of the Morse Ascetic. The special sturdiness of the Wishing Lamp, and the special need of the Lamp God for the extraordinary characteristics of the path of the Inquisitor and the Black Emperor, are very much in line with the revelation of the prophecy. But she wasn't sure, so she still collected special events around the place through Elemental Dawn.

"This ship may be involved in the secrets of the Rune military or the royal family, be careful when investigating."

Bernadette paused and then said, "Don't be rash, be safe." I'm ready to leave Port Prieze. ”

After a few other remarks, Bernadette left Elemental Dawn's secret stronghold in Pritzport to take the train to Beckland.
