Duncan felt that he had been careless.

He only thought about Alice's lack of common sense to live in the human world, but he didn't think about the extent of this lack of common sense, he thought that after this product came, he could at least help a little in the store, but he didn't expect that she didn't even know the money.

But that's quite reasonable.

After all, she didn't need to spend money lying in a coffin......

"Alas...... While Shirley and Nina are away, I'll continue to make up lessons with you," Duncan sighed, reluctantly giving up his plan to go out in the afternoon, "First of all, I have to let you know the most basic things in the human world, such as currency ......"

He paused, then sighed again: "Hey, looking at it like this, I really have to open a literacy cram school for you and Shirley." ”

"Oh, Shirley, that's the short girl just now, right?" Alice immediately recalled, her face full of joy, it seemed to her that she was happy to meet someone new, "I heard you say that she is a ...... like me What's it called, 'illiterate', right? ”

"It's not something to be happy about!" Duncan knocked on the table, "And even Shirley is better than you - how to evade fares when you take a car!" ”

Alice: "What is fare evasion?" ”

Duncan: "......"

……

Heidi sneezed firmly.

She got up and closed the window of the living room, rubbed her nose and muttered about the recent hot and cold weather, and then looked up a little worriedly at her father, who was sitting at the coffee table not far away.

The school was already closed, and the annual autumn break in the public schools of Purand lasted for more than two months, during which my father did not have to go to the school to report, and there was no social interaction on weekdays, so in previous years he usually spent his time in the major libraries of the city-state, or stayed at home to spend his days leisurely as he did today.

But for some reason, Morris looks quite wrong today.

He held a newspaper in his hand, but his eyes were not focused at all, and he sat on the couch, which had been in that stiff position for nearly an hour, and he seemed to have been pondering something, not even responding to the daytime maid's inquiry.

Heidi frowned.

It seems that my father has been in this state since he returned from Mr. Duncan's antique shop, in a trance, occasionally showing strange expressions, ignoring others, and pondering.

I didn't even go to the study—it was as if I instinctively resisted the books.

"Are you alright?" Heidi finally didn't hold back, got up and walked to Maurice's side, bent down and asked with concern, "Are you feeling unwell?" ”

After asking twice in a row, Morris finally heard his daughter's voice, he hurriedly raised his head, felt the buzzing in his head subside slightly, and then waved his hand: "I'm fine...... Oh, you didn't go to church or town hall today? Didn't go to the clinic either? ”

"The work of the church and town hall has long been done, and the clinic is closed today," Heidi frowned, "I remember you asked this morning. ”

"Oh yes, I forgot."

Morris tapped his temple lightly and said hesitantly.

He knew he wasn't in great shape, but he couldn't explain it to his daughter.

He couldn't reveal information about a subspace presence at will—not just because it might anger the "Mr. Duncan", but also because if it wasn't done well, it would contaminate Heidi and influence Heidi.

There was a low hum in his head, which interrupted Morris's thoughts, but soon the noise subsided, and his train of thought stabilized again.

Thinking noise, which is the aftermath of returning from the antique shop.

But in fact, compared with yesterday, the sequelae have been weakened many times.

Morris knew that he should be glad - he not only saved his life after facing the shadows of subspace, but even his sanity, it was the protection of the god of wisdom and the kindness of "Mr. Duncan" that worked at the same time, he left some symptoms caused by the "madness borderline", but after a simple self-judgment, he confirmed that these symptoms would quickly lessen over time, and there was nothing to be nervous about.

But before the symptoms disappear completely, I am afraid that her bad state will have to worry Heidi for a while.

Morris frowned suddenly, remembering that his daughter was a psychiatrist par excellence—he couldn't let her continue to notice something wrong with his mental state.

Just then, Heidi's voice came again: "Did you talk to Mr. Duncan about something yesterday?" I feel like you've been absent-minded since you came back......"

"Some...... The topic of the field of knowledge, very profound knowledge," Morris could not help but think of the information about the "Creep Sun Wheel", recalling the information that Mr. Duncan revealed to him about the current situation of the Black Sun, and he used great perseverance to control these "knowledge" that seemed to have independent beings drilling around in the sea of his consciousness, and smiled at Heidi, "It's a lot of brainstorming, I haven't figured it out yet, so I'm always wandering today...... Let's not talk about that, I suddenly remembered, didn't you make an appointment with a friend to go to the theater on your day off? ”

Heidi was stunned for a moment: "...... Friend? I don't remember...... Which friend did you make an appointment to go to the theater...... Are you mistaken? ”

"Am I mistaken?" Morris rubbed his temples, for some reason, he suddenly felt a heat near his temples, and his memory flashed for a while, as if something had been forgotten was awakening in his consciousness, "But I remember that you said the day before yesterday that you had a friend...... What's it called, a tall ...... who is familiar with me?"

Maurice's action of rubbing his temples gradually became irritable, and he began to gently tap his forehead with his fist, and his mouth was muttering, which made Heidi, who was only a little confused, suddenly feel inexplicably nervous, she quickly squatted down and held the old man's hand: "Are you okay?" Is it a headache? Do you want...... Shall I give you a hypnosis or a soothing guide? Or find another doctor......"

"I don't need a doctor, I don't need it," Morris waved his hand vigorously, and the noise appeared in his mind again, but this time the noise was different from the previous "thinking noise", this time the sound seemed to be desperately conveying something, desperately waking up something, he felt as if there was another consciousness awakened in his mind—that consciousness was still himself, but there was a subtle deviation from his current thinking, "I just need to recall, recall a very important thing...... Heidi, you have a friend, listen, you have a friend, very important......"

The worry and tension on Heidi's face became more and more serious, and she squeezed Morris's other hand hard, and her words were already unconsciously carrying the power of soothing guidance: "Of course I have friends, but which ......one are you talking about?"

Morris, however, could no longer hear Heidi's words.

He felt a sudden roar in his head, it was the sound of all the noise being compressed into a moment, and then the noise of his thoughts that had been bothering him for a long time disappeared completely, and a large number of strange memories poured out of the depths of his consciousness, and he seemed to see that scene again in a trance—a giant, full of starlight, a giant formed by the twisting and fusion of crumpled mirrors, and then he saw the green flame, the flame burned, and the fog disappeared.

Let's try it soon, everyone. 】

This time, he was not intellectually damaged by the sight of the giant, on the contrary, the impression that came to his mind seemed to have pierced an invisible curtain with inexplicable power.

The old man suddenly raised his head and stared into Heidi's eyes: "Where's Fanna?" ”

Heidi was stunned: "...... Who is Vanna? ”

"Inquisitor of the city-state, one of your best friends, niece of Archon Dante......" Maurice said slowly, his breath had calmed down, his eyes had returned to their former depth and sharpness, the noise was gone, the figure of the giant was gone, and only two memories that existed at the same time and were completely different remained in his mind, and he could clearly recognize all the differences in those memories, as if he were reading two historical scrolls spread out in front of him—distinguishing history and finding the truth was one of the things he did best"You don't remember, do you?" ”

Heidi hesitated, "I...... I don't know who you're talking about, but your status worries me......"

"Don't worry about me, I'm in a pretty good state right now, but we should worry about Vanna," Morris suddenly stood up, his expression more serious than ever, "Heidi, something may be wrong with our city-state, we need to act." ”

Heidi subconsciously got up, she could sense that her father's spirit was indeed inexplicably uplifted, but she had no idea what was happening: "Action? Do what? ”

"You go to the cathedral, go to Bishop Valentine, and tell him ......," Morris said quickly, but stopped in the middle of speaking, and shook his head after weighing nervously and seriously, "No, Vanna's accident may also be due to the truth...... You go to Bishop Valentine and say you want to seek asylum, the highest level of asylum, and you tell him that I made you do it, and it was the most eminent historian of the city of Poland who told you to do it, and nothing else......"

Heidi listened to it in a daze, she had already sensed that there might be something dangerous and urgent happening, and these things could not be said directly, so she controlled the urge to ask questions, and was ready to do it according to her father's instructions first, but then she noticed that Morris picked up the coat next to her, and suddenly opened her eyes slightly: "What about you?" So what are you going to do? ”

“…… Go to the antique shop. Morris said in a deep voice.
