Chapter 37: Third-rate writers
Lewis reacted suddenly. Is there a difference between what Zangwill snatched and what the goddess snatched? If it weren't for the acquiescence of the goddess of the night, with the help of Ince. How is it possible for the person of Zangwill, to take the seal from the Templar0-08?
That is to say, Ince. Zangwill's actions were acquiesced in by the goddess, and the other party snatched the notes of the Antigonus family, which was equivalent to the goddess of the night taking something from him.
Thinking of this, Lewis once again felt that perhaps he should change his faith, or perhaps he should praise the sun!
However, what made Lewis tremble the most was the sentence: all the gifts of fate have long been secretly marked with a price.
If what seals 0-08 say are reality, then what will be the price for him? He also thought that the lucky charms obtained through prayer did not have a price, or that the price was a prayer ceremony.
The hand turned the page of the letter again, and a new story continued.
"Oh my God! How could that poor worm be so active? And what does he want to do? Send a letter to the original Earl of Darlam? The poor worm knows too much, isn't the next step to find Ince. Zangwill and the seal 0-08? ”
"Can't let him get his way!"
"Poor Lewis blew the brass whistle to summon the messenger, but as a proud messenger, who would want to deliver a letter to a weak man of Sequence Eight? The messengers then argued, which caused the messenger's arrival to be prolonged by half a minute. ”
"Because of the influence of the notes of the Antigonus family, this half minute was extraordinarily long in Lewis's eyes, and he couldn't wait, so he decided to go out to deliver the letter, but the postman was hit by a carriage and broke his leg after picking up the letter, and the letter was also lost."
"Lewis sent the wrong letter, which caused the poor worm to be unable to move for a short time. Zangwill was able to leave the room he had lived in, erasing all traces of the transcendent that had existed, and turning the unlucky man's divination into a joke. It makes sense. ”
"The story continues, the great Ince. Zangwil manipulated the events in Tingen, and the fraudsters ......"
"Kill Triss? Keeping my story from going because of the lack of a key person? What does this unlucky guy want to do? ”
"How is this possible? He's just a sequence eight, don't you want to die? Wait, every time this poor creature strikes, it's too surprising for Triss to have a problem. ”
"Let me think about how to make this story plausible."
"The witch Serra discovered Triss's anomaly, she is also a member of the witch sect, she can't let Triss go, not to mention, Triss has a secret ......"
At this point, the story comes to an abrupt end, and the rest of the page seems to be hidden by something, and the hand never turns it down.
Lewis's spirituality was slightly touched, and he seemed to see a strange power enveloping the entire dream, and that strange power turned into a large hand that held him tightly in it.
Whether he followed his memories to find this place, or performed divination on a whim, it seems that Seal 0-08 was expected, although Seal 0-08 sometimes showed surprise at his actions, but the other party was always able to bring the script back.
Lewis smiled and sneered at the ceiling: "What a mentally retarded script, only a third-rate writer would write such an tasteless story, and he would always emphasize that it is very reasonable." ”
As Lewis's voice fell, the dream shattered, and he felt a twisted malice.
……
In the basement, with only a gas lamp and a single bed, a man holds a quill pen and writes a familiar story, the words of which seem to be magical, and everything that is written becomes a reality in the city of Tingen.
Suddenly, the quill in the man's hand became irritable, and it broke free from its restraints, jumped three feet high, and wrote freely on the paper:
"The poor worm actually dares to scold me for being a third-rate writer, who gave him the guts? Lewis and Ince. Zangwill would be hit by a carriage going out, and their skulls would be pecked open by flying eagles who would put in their skulls as the price of insulting super-first-rate writers, which is quite reasonable. ”
"No!" The man in the room watched the quill quickly write on the page, he hurriedly grabbed the quill and added: This will not be realized, there are too many unreasonable things about the incident just now, it is just the imagination of a third-rate writer.
With Ince. Zangwill dropped the handwriting, as if he felt the deep malice of the seal......
……
Lewis's eyes shattered in pure white, and he opened his eyes and saw Mr. Azik in front of him.
"Has the divination yielded any results?" Mr. Azik asked without emotion.
"I'm sorry, I don't think we'll find any valuable information, the one behind it erased everything." Lewis shook his head. Zangwill's move was noticed, and with a 0-08 position, if the opponent had written him into the story, he wouldn't have had any chance of winning in the first place.
"It doesn't matter, I'll always find out who is behind it and get my child's skull back." Mr. Azik did not pay too much attention to this matter, and said to himself: "Next I will go to find the child's skull, and I will also quit my job to find my memory, if you have something to find me, then write to contact." ”
"I will." Lewis bowed slightly and said sincerely, "I hope you can recover all your memories soon." ”
Lewis said goodbye to Mr. Azic, knowing that as long as he was in a 0-08 script, it would be difficult to find a comeback.
Luckily, he only plays a fringe role in the script, as long as he doesn't actively touch the script of 0-08. Zangwill simply wouldn't have paid any attention to him.
The crimson moon hangs high in the sky, and some of the starlight shrouds around the moon, setting off the intoxicating crimson.
Lewis walked back to the detective office, made a cup of black tea, and drank it slowly.
Suddenly, Lewis was inspired, and the invisible man had been in the detective agency for him since before he came in.
As a transcendent of the path of fate, he failed to detect someone in the room at the first time, which shows that the other party's ability is above him, and he is very good at hiding.
Lewis stood up abruptly, looked at the corner of the pillar on the right side of the room, and pulled out his gun, even though it was now only a normal bullet, and it was difficult to fatally injure an extraordinary being.
"Mr. Lewis, it's my ......"
Suddenly, Lewis felt his right hand holding the gun lose control, and the pistol fell to the ground.
Then, with the help of the glow of the gas lamp, Lewis could see the almost transparent, looming silk threads on his wrist.
It was the ability of the Witch of Pleasure belonging to Sequence 6, and these strange threads could manipulate a person.
