Chapter 149: Explicit foreshadowing

Klein glanced at the serious Dunn Smith, and suddenly smiled:

"Captain, I figured out something yesterday. ”

"What's the matter?" Dunn repeated the question, leaning back slightly against the back of his chair, his clasped hands loose.

Klein recalled the previous draft and said:

"I'm summing up my previous experience, I think that the name of the potion itself contains a whole set of rules that help us master the potion and avoid negative effects, and when we follow this set of rules to deal with things, we seem to become the corresponding profession. ”

Again, these rules are implicit, no one tells you directly, you can only summarize them little by little from the corresponding profession, and then correct them according to different effect feedback. ”

"So, when I became a real soothsayer in the Divination Club and had my own 'Diviner Code', the babbling and visions that plagued me disappeared. ”

"That's what I want to understand. ”

After saying this, Klein secretly exhaled, except that he didn't directly name "playing", he said everything he should have said.

Hey, I just hope that the captain doesn't say that I have such a clear idea when the church sends someone to ask, that will make me get more attention...... Coupled with the factors of the "soothsayer" path and the Antigonus family, there may be a lot of trouble when the time comes...... However, the captain is also a person who has seen many storms and waves, has rich experience and is not low in wisdom, once he understands the "playing method", he will definitely be aware of the church's concealment on the corresponding issues, and know what to say and what not to say...... Klein's mind was full of thoughts and slightly confused.

However, he quickly made up his mind and had a plan:

If the captain hasn't been able to understand the "trick" or is not aware of the church's concealment, then I will wake him up directly before submitting a special application!

Well, when the time comes, let's do a test first and determine the next step......

Dunn listened quietly to Crane's description, and his gray eyes became darker.

He was silent for more than ten seconds, reached out and rubbed the corner of his forehead, then picked up his pipe and sniffed it.

After sniffing, he seemed to have forgotten the rules of the night watchman team, and took out the matchbox casually.

The blue-white smoke slowly rose, and Dunn half-closed his eyes, as if tasting tobacco.

After a while, he opened his eyes and smiled at Klein:

"Sorry to forget you don't smoke. ”

"Smoking is bad for your health. Klein replied solemnly.

Dunn took his pipe, thought for a moment, and said:

"I seem to understand something, too. ”

No, Captain, you don't understand anything!Don't wander into my dreams too often, anyway!

"Perhaps, it won't take long for you to submit a special application......," Dunn said as he took a deep breath of the mint-infused tobacco flavor and half-jokingly sighed.

Can you do it tomorrow?" Klein replied in his heart, took out his pocket watch, looked at the time, and said:

"Captain, I've got to go find Old Neil, today's occult lesson is about to begin. ”

"Okay. Dunn took his pipe and watched Klein out the door.

Closing the door to the captain's office, Crane walked to the staircase leading to the ground in a good mood, and as he passed by the civilian office, he saw two strangers inside, a man and a woman.

Newly arrived civilian ...... Klein nodded thoughtfully, and added in his heart:

"In two more days, within this week, a special application will be submitted to the captain!"

Then through a series of examinations, become the "clown" of Sequence 8!

............

In the quiet of the underground passage, Crane turned to the weapons depot and pushed open the hidden door of the guard's room.

"What happened to you?" he was startled at the sight of old Neil.

Old Neil was sluggish, his face was pale, and he yawned incessantly:

"I've been a little constipated lately, and last night I tried a ritual magic to solve this problem, and as a result, I didn't sleep well all night, kept running to the bathroom, and then I almost fell asleep on the toilet. ”

Well, the constipation problem is solved...... Seeing that it wasn't a big deal, Klein suddenly wanted to laugh.

But he restrained himself, and instead asked:

"Is it better now?"

At the same time, he tapped his left tooth twice with concern, and observed Old Neil's healthy aura with his "spiritual vision".

The yellow color of the digestive system, the orange color of the excretoxion and detoxification location, is a bit dull and patchy, but okay, within reason...... Klein breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's okay, I asked Frye for some antidiarrheal medicine. Old Neil yawned like a smoker, "Today's occult course is for you to study on your own, and it will only be the last two or three days anyway." ”

"Okay. Klein politely said, "Or maybe I'm guarding the arsenal here and taking occult classes on my own, and you go to the break room to catch up on sleep?"

Old Neil instantly straightened his back and replied with blazing eyes:

"Little Moretti, you are indeed the second conscientious person after Frye among the night watchmen!"

"The arsenal will be handed over to you!"

He picked up the blanket on his lap and stormed out of the guard room, leaving Crane alone in a daze.

............

In the morning, the Black Thorn Security Company took over an additional business and escorted a wealthy businessman to the docks to trade with people, which Leonard and Cohenley easily completed and made a lot of extra money, which made Klein quite envious.

And he still went deep into the mystery step by step, practiced marksmanship, and was "tortured" like crazy by Mr. Gao Wen, who didn't know what stimulation he had received.

Whew, whew...... Crane opened his mouth and gasped for breath for a long time before he regained his ability to take a shower and change clothes.

After leaving Gawain's house, he continued to be busy, spending 2 soles to hire a cab for hire, and in turn he went down the ten houses with red chimneys.

When the last dark red chimney moved away from his sight, Crane's expression became very solemn.

"The 'red chimney' houses I saw in my divination are not among the tenants that have recently changed tenants...... In this way, things will be troublesome, and I don't know when the investigation will be completed for 1,6700 houses...... Hey, I can't ask anyone else for help in this matter, after all, only when I face the goal, can I have that spiritual familiarity......"

"You can't be discouraged, you can't give up, as long as you have time, you can investigate, and strive for three months, no, find the target within two months!

"Well, go back and sort out the information, and plan the daily inspection route according to the near and far regions!"

Klein encouraged himself to keep the frustration away.

With this decision in mind, he was about to tell the coachman to turn to Daffodil Street, when he suddenly found that it was very close to the residence of the Azic teacher.

"Before Mr. Azik went on a trip, he wrote to me that he would be back this week, but he didn't mention what the exact number it was, just stopped by to have a look, and left a note for him, well, rent a carriage for 2 soles for 1 hour, and now it's almost time, just end at Mr. Azik's house, and then change to a public carriage......" Klein quickly decided.

After four minutes, he stepped out of the carriage and came to the door of Azk's house.

It's significantly better off than Daffodil Street, but it's not as good as the Howles neighborhood, with a lawn in front of the house and a small garden in the back.

Ding! Ding!

Crane pulled the rope in the doorway and rang the bell in the house.

After waiting for a moment, he heard footsteps coming from inside, and then saw the door open.

A soft-skinned and bronzed Azik appeared in front of Klein, who was casually wearing a white shirt, brown waistcoat, and brown trousers at home.

"Crane, I was about to write to you. Azik greeted warmly, "I just got home last night." ”

Klein took a deep look at the tiny black mole under his right ear and said:

"Mr. Azik, I found a clue to your past. ”

"Really?" Azik's expression suddenly became excited, and his eyes with vicissitudes of life lost their indifference.

"Let's go in and say. Crane glanced left and right.

Azik nodded quickly, got out of the way, and let the guests in.

He locked the door and led Klein to the first-floor living room, where he sat down on the soft couch.

"What clues did you find?" he asked impatiently.

Klein didn't expect to meet Mr. Azik today, and organized the language:

"I was recently commissioned to go to an abandoned castle outside of Lamb Town to get rid of a grudge. ”

"Ramd......" Azik repeated the name in a low voice, his brow furrowed slightly.

Klein looked at the other party's expression, slowed down and said:

"In the process of getting rid of the ghosts, we discovered something, so we went to the town to do an in-depth investigation......

"A townsman who claimed to have a portrait of the original Baron Lamb tried to sell it to me, and I looked at it with curiosity and found that the person in the portrait had facial features very similar to you, Mr. Azik, except for the hairstyle, and even the black mole under the ear had the same position and size. ”

"Under my interrogation, the townsman confessed that the oil painting was made more than 40 years ago, but the object of imitation was indeed from the abandoned castle, and it was indeed an ancient portrait that was dug up there. ”

"You know, people like us with the unique ability to have a knack for spotting lies, and that skill tells me that the townsfolk aren't lying. ”

Azik leaned forward to listen, clasped his hands, and did not speak for a long time, always maintaining a wordless silence.

It took five or six minutes before he exhaled and said:

"Your description doesn't remind me of anything more, and maybe, perhaps, I have to go see the abandoned castle for myself. ”

"Can you take me there?"

"It's my pleasure. "But I need to go home so that my brother and sister don't worry." ”

"No problem. Azik stood up.
