Chapter 175: Mourning the Moments of Life
Qin Yixian took Chen Qiang and the others to the living room, while the tired old man Beethoven returned directly to the room with Bai Shaobao.
[Beethoven listened to the test 7/79 success]
[Bai Shaobao listened to the 83/61 test failed]
Even though he was still suffering from ear disease, Mr. Beethoven still had some of his hearing regained and was still more sensitive than usual.

The old musician grabbed Bai Shaobao in time - Bai Shaobao, who was looking around, bumped into the guests walking across the corner.
"I'm sorry." Bai Shaobao said, and after discovering that there was a white woman opposite, he immediately switched to English.
"Ah...... Never mind. The woman was fluent in Chinese. She was about thirty years old, with a thick, dictionary-like book tucked under her arm.
Her amber eyes lingered on the great musician for a moment.
"Are you German?" (German)
The old musician hesitated for a few seconds. He is well aware that his current identity is the artistic director of the "Fortress of Reason", the Austrian Bedolf.
"Austria," he said kindly, extending his hand to the woman, "I am surprised that such German can still be heard in this age. I thought I would never hear it again. (German)
Contemporary German and Beethoven are slightly different when he was "alive", but the woman's spoken language has a sense of the past.
"The universe and everything in the universe is temporary, from the short life of the firefly, to the short life of man, to the short life of the sun," the woman gently shook hands with the great musician, "and the same is true of language." (German)

The woman was probably an occultist, he thought. Her words and deeds were appropriate, just like the nobles that the old musicians knew. The old musicians thought that in this new era, this aristocracy no longer existed.
There is not the slightest pretentiousness in the woman's words. And the old musicians also intend to treat each other with sincerity.
"Perhaps," replied the old musician, who, though unruly, knew how to talk to a well-bred nobleman, "you are right. Fireflies, humans, and the sun, languages, classes, and nations all have something in common in terms of the finite nature of life. But who says that a finite life cannot be set on something higher? Keep at it and maybe we'll meet a miracle. (German)
"After that, we can talk about time and time," the woman said, "and it's going to be very rewarding to talk to you." But now, I'm going to meet your friends. (German)
The women left. After all the vicissitudes of life, the old man Beethoven, who was already unfamiliar with what had happened, went straight back to his room, leaving only Bai Shaobao, who did not understand half a word of German at all, and was at a loss about the esoteric topics between the two sides.

"Mr. Chen......" Bai Shaobao quickly edited a text message to Chen Qiang.
……
In the restaurant of the "annex".
The crowd sat around the long table. Qin Yixian's fiancée, Fujiwara Erika, took Qin Lingxue and Xiao Yezi to prepare dinner together, Bai Shaobao and the old musician went to rest first, and the only people left here in the Fortress of Reason were Chen Qiang, Cecilu, Gu Shiyin and Iss.
Finally, the German-speaking woman arrived, and Qin Yixian closed the door.
"It looks like everyone is here," Qin Yat-sen said, "The guests of the 'Oath Project' will have to wait until after midnight. Chen Qiang, let me introduce you first. ”
Qin Yixian pointed to the man sitting on the sofa in the distance: "Lawyer Robin Selman, you already know each other." He stands for 'Golden Dawn'. ”
"Ms. Virginia Meghan of the N Network." Qin Yixian set his eyes on the old lady sitting opposite Chen Qiang, her face was full of wrinkles, but her eyes were bright.
"This is ......" Qin Yixian suddenly found that he did not know this woman who represented the "Theosophical Society".
"Ms. Petrovna," Old Lady Megan of the N Network cleared her throat, she had seen and heard much more than Qin Yat-sen, "I have long heard that the 'Theosophical Society' will send important people, but I didn't expect you to come out in person." ”
Qin Yixian swallowed and foamed. No one had seen it, but he had heard the name.
"Miss Petrovna," Qin Yat-sen spoke in a slightly quieter voice with the presence of two bosses, "she was the main contributor to the revival of the Theosophical Society in India fifteen years ago. It was her leadership that gave the Theosophical Society a new lease of life. ”
"I'm just following in the footsteps of Madame Blavatsky." Women smile.
"It's your turn!" Qin Yixian touched Chen Qiang.
"I, Chen Qiang," Chen Qiang said succinctly, "the boss of the 'Fortress of Reason'." ”
Old Lady Megan frowned. "Petrovna" looked indifferent.
"It's rude, but let me ask," Chen Qiang said in English, "Before I came in, I noticed that there was at least one creature hidden in this house that was not of this world, as well as several mysterious items. Did they bring it by the two? If not, then the house is no longer safe and we may need to move. ”
"Looks like you have your own secrets, too." Erika Fujiwara, who served the dishes to the room, was amazed.
"If you mean that baiaki," said Mrs. Meghan calmly, "yes, I am in service to make it." I don't like to be known by the secular world, so I use it as a means of transportation. As long as you set the coordinates, you can move quickly. On this point, Qin Yat-sen can testify for me. ”
"Yes," Qin Yat-sen said, since Mrs. Meghan didn't mind saying it, he didn't care, "When Mr. Robin Selman went to the airport, I measured the moving coordinates of Hokkaido for Mrs. Meghan. ”
The Baiaki mainly serve the Hasta, but the mages can easily subjugate these "interstellar bat monsters" with their summoning and binding spells. Baiaki can take his master through space, and he is also a brave and good defender.
"I'll also use those little bats as guards," said Mrs. Meghan, "and they'll sound the alarm when an enemy approaches." Any questions? ”
"No, that's good." Chen Qiang fiddled with his cane.
"Other items you see may be my books and crystal balls," Petrovna said, gesturing to the large book she had placed on the table, "which contains some knowledge of danger." I don't want to interrupt my research because of trivial matters. ”
"So you can put your weapons down." Mrs. Megan glanced at the sword that Chen Qiang was clutching tightly.
"Oh, of course. Allow me to offer my sincere apologies. Chen Qiang said, bowing slightly, and the cane disappeared out of thin air in his hand.

Mrs. Meghan and Miss Petrovna raised their eyebrows in unison: Chen Qiang's "inadvertently" revealed hand successfully caught their attention.
Chen Qiang was secretly calculating in his heart. These people are different from the investigators so far, they are more powerful and, in a sense, more "cunning".
