Mystery
Yanan sat at the counter, ordered a glass of gin, and sipped slowly. From the conversation between the three men, he got a lot of useful information.
In fact, since November 14, 2003, someone has disappeared from the Humbeck silver mine, the first to disappear is a team leader in the silver mine, on November 18, workers found him in an abandoned mine in the mine, at first people thought he had fallen from his footing, after all, it is normal for one or two people to die in the mine, and everyone buried him in the cemetery and continued to work.
On November 21, two workers disappeared this time, two brothers, until the next morning, when they did not show up until the next morning, only to find out that two more were missing.
On November 25, when the workers were excavating, they dug up a large piece of Eagle Harrier silver, and after the workers simply washed the silver block, they found that the ball was densely covered with delicate folds. The frightened workers threw the silver ball in the mine, and refused to go any closer to the mine, no matter how much the foreman threatened and lured.
On December 6, Yanan looked at his watch.
After getting the information he wanted, Yanan ignored the legends of the gods and ghosts and walked out of the door.
Yanan walked into an alley where the leader of the team, Genos, lived, and his wife had moved away from the silver mine site since Genos' death.
"Mom, I don't want to eat black bread, I want to eat white bread." Immature voices from the room.
"Good baby, black bread is also delicious, when my mother pays her salary, I will buy you white bread to eat." The woman squatted on the ground, touched the little girl's depressed face, scraped a little of the butter from the bottom of the bowl and smeared it on the bread, the girl first carefully gnawed off the corners without butter, and then spun and ate the bread one bite at a time.
Knock knock, Yanan knocked on the door.
"Who?"
"Hello, I'm Alfred, a friend of Genos, is Mr. Genos here?"
The door was opened. "I'm sorry, Genos has passed away, I'm his wife, Anna." Mrs. Genos stood in the doorway and whispered.
"Oh, that's really, really, unfortunately. Please mourn and change" Yanan looked surprised, and then expressed his condolences.
"You come in first." Mrs. Genos invited Yanan into the house, took out an iron can from the cupboard, patted it vigorously, and made Yanan a cup of black tea.
After a brief conversation with Mrs. Genos, Yanan said that he wanted to pay homage to Genos alone, and he blew the foam on the teacup, leaving Mrs. Genos two thousand silver to repay his previous "loan" to Genos, and then left.
Late at night, Yanan came to the cemetery and soon found the tombstone of Genos.
"Genos. Loftus-Cheek, for the sake of no more victims like you in the future, offended. Yanan folded his hands in front of the tomb and apologized.
Soon the sarcophagus was dug up, and Yanan lifted the lid of the coffin, and the pale Genos lay inside, because the weather was cold, and the body showed no obvious signs of decay. He pressed the corpse with his hands, the corpse was only hastily disposed of, the back was all broken and abrased, and the wounds were oozing a lot of pus, and he found a strange wound in Zhongyanan.
"Ugh." Yanan sighed, lay down in the coffin, closed the lid of the coffin, and opened the luminous stone.
"Triangular wounds, obvious trauma." Yanan sliced the back of the corpse's head, and the hole in the skull made him more sure.
Yanan has no interest in investigating the homicide, and for the sake of safety, the possibility of filth cannot be ruled out at the moment.
When Yanan carefully examined his body and climbed out of the coffin, it was a slightly bright morning, he carefully filled the soil back, shoveled a few pieces of turf from the side to cover it, and after finishing it, he took advantage of the fact that there were not many pedestrians, and turned back to the hotel room from the window.
Yanan threw away the clothes soaked in rancid slime, rinsed his body well, and lay down on the bed.
Alfred was right, he didn't have any clue now, the only clue was to point to a murder case that had nothing to do with him, to find out the clues, and to investigate the place where Genos died, but if this happened, the viscount would definitely seal up the silver mine.
Yanan took out a glass bottle the size of an index finger from his pocket, and in the transparent solution, there were a few wisps of pale yellow flowing.
Garrison Secret Medicine, "New Life".
"According to the rules, this potion needs to be used by someone, but if you are in trouble, find a bed and lie down and drink it, and when you wake up, you will see something different." Alfred shoved the medicine into his hand before he left.
Yanan unscrewed the cap of the bottle and drank it, closing his eyes.
The itch crept up the skin of his whole body, with a faint warmth, he was in a field of light, and raised his arms, the light was so thick and sticky, countless ripples were stirred. He was a little startled, and bubbles popped out of his mouth and slowly floated up. The beam of light penetrates the membrane, refracting countless colorful lines and shuttling back and forth in the bubbles. He swam up, trying to hold on to the colored ball of light.
Syllable!
The bubble burst, and Yanan woke up, and it was already the next morning.
The sunlight shone in through the glass, and Yanan's heart throbbed, staring at the light spots on the ground, and his pupils slowly opened.
He saw that the room was covered with white threads that came in through the window, first to Yanan's clothes and then to the walls. He flicked the silk thread on his body, lifted it up a little, and the line that was refracted on the wall also moved slowly, and after continuing to play with it for a while, the slowly heavy mind made him have to stop.
The Pope divides the transcendent into God's people, believers, priests, deacons, priests, bishops, and the cardinal, who are now believers in God.
After getting used to his new abilities, Yanan boarded the carriage to Viscount Hombeck.
After inquiring about the location of the silver mine, he crept to the outskirts of the silver mine, climbed over the wall outside the silver mine, easily avoided the patrolling guards, and came to the mine.
Yanan hid in the shadows of an abandoned mining machine and watched as two groups of people were arguing. After listening carefully for a while, it turned out that the guards of the viscount wanted to let the workers resume production, and the workers were forced to reluctantly express their willingness to work, but they had to settle the annual wages first, and they did not want to die at the end of the year like Genos, but they could not get a penny.
When the quarrel reached a fierce point, the captain of the guard drew his sword and cut the arm of one of the workers, and the two sides almost fought, but fortunately, the foreman tried his best to mediate, and the workers were willing to take half of the wages before starting work, and the captain of the guard sent a guard back to report the news, and the two sides were deadlocked not far from the mine.
Yanan adjusted his breath, his pupils dilated, and he walked into the sun. He slowly rounded the crowd and approached the entrance of the cave, only a few steps away. The captain of the guard, who was closing his eyes and recuperating his nerves, suddenly opened his eyes and looked in the direction of Yanan, but fortunately, Yanan's control of his ability was enough to pass the test, and the guards did not find anything abnormal, so they looked away.
The moment Yanan entered the mine, a pair of eyes stared at his back.
