Woo –

Woo –

With the sound of a high-spirited whistle, a pair of leather boots stepped on the platform of Tobolsk, which was filled with smoke and the dim gas lamps swayed in the wind overhead.

"Let's go."

The man in a suit and leather shoes and a bowler hat held out his broad palm to the little girl in a white dress beside him.

"Hmm!"

The man carried a black box and held his daughter in one hand, walked through the crowd, walked out of the platform, exhaled a white breath, looked around, and finally chose a four-wheeled carriage parked on the side of the street.

"Go to 55 Kai Ming Street."

"Okay!"

The fur-coated coachman flicked the reins, and the carriage immediately drove into the wide street and quickly along the banks of the Tobol River.

In the carriage, the girl in the white dress leaned on the window and observed the frozen river at night, the kerosene lamp in front of the carriage reflected a dark silhouette on the white ice, and under the ice, there were hidden fish swimming.

The man picked up the newspaper placed on the side of the door and read it, the city daily newspaper of Tobolsk, which was mostly related to local residents.

[Front-line military intelligence: The Philesar coalition army has retreated, and the cities of Chelyabinsk, Nizhny Tagil, and Yinvjieli have returned to the kingdom]

[Tobolsk Central Park will hold a winter festival on February 7, and you can participate without buying a ticket]

[The Cult of Wisdom holds a month-long Mass, where all participants can enjoy the sacrament for free and receive a small gift at 12 Tor Street...]

The man flipped through the pages of the newspaper, looking for the information he wanted, and finally, in the middle of the newspaper, he saw an advertisement:

[Academic Seminar of the School of Order, our topic is the operation of order, tutor Mischersson, a famous professor at Tobolsk University, an expert in the Department of History.... Those who are interested in academics are welcome, there is no threshold, the audit fee is 20 kopecks, and the address is 78 Qiming Street. 】

"Found it...."

The man silently jotted down the address, then inserted the newspaper back into the door, and in a few moments, the carriage stopped on the side of the street.

"Sir, 55 Kai Ming Street has arrived."

After getting out of the car, the man threw the driver an iron ruble coin and dragged his daughter into the hotel in front of him.

The hotel is decorated in a simple way, not luxury, but it is very clean, behind the counter, the woman wearing an apron and reading saw a guest entering the door, and quickly put down the book and got up to entertain: "Sir, may I ask...."

"One room, two beds, windows to be asked, south facing, no special services required." The man took out a couple of ruble coins and put them on the counter.

"Ahh Good. ”

The woman pushed a key and a register in front of the man: "Please write your name on it, now it is very strict...."

The man took out two more ruble coins, sandwiched them in the register, and slowly pushed them back: "I heard that you provide hot water here, please prepare a basin and a pot of hot tea." ”

"Got it, sir."

Instead of asking for the man's name, the woman casually filled in an unfamiliar name on the registration form.

With the key, the man pulled his daughter, picked up the kerosene lamp, walked up the creaky staircase, all the way to the third floor, and opened a guest room on the left side of the stairs.

Like the downstairs hall, the rooms are clean and tidy, with large south-facing windows, a small round table, two single beds, red striped plaid sheets that exude the warmth of the sun, and even the crevices along the window edges are spotless.

It's the same as the communication.... But how did he know there was a special service here.... This kid is really dishonest....

While thinking, the man put the kerosene lamp and the black suitcase on the small round table, closed the door, and took off the thick tweed coat and bowler hat...

The girl kicked off her little leather shoes, jumped on the bed, picked up the pillow and said, "Daddy, this bed is so soft!" ”

The man smiled, and did not rush to rest, but began to bang on the wall from the door, knocking one step at a time, and did not relax until he walked through the room.

There is no mezzanine .... The hotel picked by the source is really safe....

Dongdong!

There was a soft knock on the door, and the man pulled out the revolver hidden in the deep pocket of his coat and asked, "Who?" ”

"Melissa! Deliver hot water! "A woman's voice came from outside, sounding like a receptionist at the counter downstairs.

The man opened the door, looked behind the woman, and after making sure that she was the only one, he quietly put away the pistol against the door, and let her in sideways.

"Sir, you have a good eye, our hostel is the cleanest in Tobolsk! The sheets are changed every day! ”

The woman named Melissa put a basin of hot water and a pot of tea on the table, smiled and said, "If you need anything else, just look for me, I'll be on duty tonight." ”

"Thank you."

After the woman left, the man locked the door, hid the revolver under the pillow, then went to the window and closed the ventilation window.

"Dad, why are you so careful?"

"Kovalev, they haven't come yet, we're acting alone, of course we have to be careful."

The man looked at the pedestrians and carriages passing downstairs, and the bright moonlight shone on his face, it was none other than Ma Wei.

A few days ago they returned to Tyumen from Chelyabinsk, stayed only one night, and then rushed to Tobolsk without stopping, this time, Mavi did not let Dino accompany him, in order not to reveal his whereabouts, he took Yunia to Tobolsk first, Kovalev, Rusov, and Daniel arrived a day later.

The source and the fat orange also received the news that in a few days, they would arrive in Tobolsk by train and join Mavi and the others.

Tobolsk is the seat of the school of order, and on the premise of not knowing the strength and details of the other party, it is always right to be careful, after all, judging from the situation reported by the source....

The School of Order, unlike the Cult of Happiness, has a large number of loyal followers and shows no signs of collapse.

At this moment, more than four months have passed since the arrival of the gods, and no one knows if the School of Order has derived any strange magic, you know...

Originally, the School of Order also approached Katerina and wanted to support her.

"Wash up and rest early, there are things to do tomorrow."

"Hmm!"

The next morning, as soon as the sun had risen, Mavi opened his eyes, and Yunia was still asleep, but Mavi did not wake her up, washed his face with cold water, put on a thick tweed coat, put on a bowler hat, picked up the key and walked out of the room.

In the hall downstairs, Melissa was sleeping behind the counter, and workers were already appearing on the street outside, Ma Wei sat down in the open-air café next to the hotel, asked for a cup of coffee, a sour cream pancake with eggs, and bought a newspaper that had just been delivered, while drinking coffee, while looking at the situation near Qiming Street.

"Hey, did you hear about it, there's a winter festival in Central Park tomorrow! The Black Swan Dance Company will also come! ”

"What? Are you sure? ”

"Shhhh Grapevine, don't leak the rumors, otherwise there will be too many people going tomorrow, and we won't be able to grab a good position! ”

Two men dressed as clerks exchanged heads while enjoying breakfast, and although their conversation was quiet, it was all in the ears of Ma Wei, who was sitting nearby.

They seemed to notice this too, and lowered their voices again, and now Ma Wei couldn't hear clearly, but....

"How did I hear that the Black Swan Dance Troupe wasn't coming?" Ma Wei suddenly put down the newspaper and said to the two men sitting next to him, "Is there a mistake in your message?" ”

"Impossible! My uncle is a member of the Black Swan Dance Troupe, and he certainly won't lie to me! The freckleled man on his face swore solemnly.

"Heh..."Ma Wei sneered: "I also know the owner of the Black Swan Dance Company, that fat man with a big belly and a top hat, he has been sick recently, and he will definitely not come." ”

"You talk nonsense! The owner of the Black Swan Dance Company is obviously Baron Staley! He's a thin guy, okay? ”

The lie was exposed, Ma Wei didn't have an embarrassed expression at all, but his eyes lit up, he picked up a stool and sat next to the freckled man, and said in a worshipful tone: "Do you really know the people of the Black Swan Dance Company?" Disrespectful and disrespectful...."

"Hmph, that's still fake? By the way, the fewer people who know about this, the better, don't spread it around, I still want to spend a night with the beautiful Miss Kinna! I heard that the men who spend the night with her can get a black feather, and they will make a windfall the next day! ”

"Really?" The man sitting next to him was unsettled: "Don't brag nonsense!" I've heard that Miss Kinna never comes into contact with men! ”

"You've been deceived, if Miss Kinna is a courtesan, the fans will definitely be sad!" The freckled man said in an unquestioning tone, "My uncle told me that at the end of each performance, Miss Kinna would look for a good and handsome man and invite him into the flower car, and he would not come out until the next day.... Why are you two looking at me like that? It's true! Trick rotten ass! ”

Ma Wei and the man next to him glanced at each other and changed the subject: "Have you ever heard of the Order School?" I want to go to their seminar, I don't know if it's okay...."

"What's the point of that kind of academic research organization coming from out of town? It's better to attend the seminar than to see two more performances by the Black Swan Dance Company! But..."The freckled man glanced around with small eyes, and said mysteriously, "Mischersson, the newly invited mentor of the Order School, has won the favor of Miss Jinna!" He used to be an old rascal who didn't learn and didn't know how to learn, mixed up with the name of a tutor, and hit the attention of female students every day, and then I didn't know what kind of shit luck he went, and he actually spent a night with Miss Jinna, and then within two days, he was promoted to a professor, which is really enviable...."

His eyes narrowed slowly, and Ma Wei asked, "You said that the tutor hired by the Order School, Mischersson, was promoted because he had a relationship with Miss Jinna?" ”

"That's right! Miss Kinna is a black swan that can only bring good luck! Who doesn't love it? ”

"Oh, if you say that, then I'm a little interested in her......"
