Mystery: Start with the Reader

Miss "Justice" can always maintain a happy mood, which is really enviable. I hope I can do the same... Hearing the brisk greeting, Klein, who was sitting at the head of the long bronze table, couldn't help but sigh with emotion. .

But he immediately thought of the fact that the other party simply gave away a bag of jewels, and suddenly felt that it was very difficult for him to maintain a happy mood like Miss Justice...

As his thoughts flashed, Klein took the page of Roselle's diary that Miss "Justice" had manifested to his hand, but he didn't rush to read it. Instead, he looked sideways at the lively and cheerful lady, and asked calmly:

"What do you hope to gain?"

Since Alfred had already received a reply letter, the "Colorful Lizard Dragon" had clear news. Audrey did not choose to ask for clues about this material again, but after thinking for a while, she said carefully:

"I met a person who claimed to be very knowledgeable about Rossel script at an extraordinary trade fair. He tattooed three symbols of Rossel text on his arm, and declared that these characters possessed 'power', which made him He got stronger and healthier..."

Speaking of which, Audrey "Justice" manifested the pattern of the three characters after obtaining the consent of Mister Fool, and then "respectfully" looked upwards, requesting:

"Dear Mister Fool, I would like to know the meaning of these three symbols... Also, do they really have power?"

Abner didn't dare to look at the words immediately after hearing the words, fearing that if they were really strange words, he would laugh out loud.

He built himself up for a few seconds before stealing a glance at the text that appeared in front of Audrey the Justice.

Uh, this is... "little girl"?

It may be because of the "tattoo" that Audrey directly remembered, the structure of those three characters appeared extremely distorted, and it took a long time for Abner to barely recognize it.

Little girl...it is really a coherent three-character phrase. I thought it would be three words that did not match at all, or even an intercepted radical.

This should be "picked" directly from which page of the diary, right?

But tattooing a "little girl" can make you healthier and stronger? Those evil spirits who rely on supplements to improve in the previous life's cultivation of immortals dare not think of such a good thing.

Just as Abner was complaining in his heart, Klein, who was sitting in the "Fool" seat, couldn't help but twitched his mouth when he saw those three words.

He thought about it carefully,

I feel that even if it is for the "Fool"'s own compulsion, the meaning of Rosselwen cannot be revealed, otherwise, if the members of the Tarot Club know that Mr. "Fool" always looks at some "little girls" and "madame" Such a description, the character set completely collapsed...

Of course, it is more likely that they will be scared to death by their "blasphemous" behavior.

However, Miss "Justice"'s request cannot be ignored... What should I do...

Klein just wanted to perfunctory, but his eyes just happened to glance at the yellow-brown parchment that Miss Justice displayed, and found that the first sentence on it read:

"On August 2, the water in this pool was deeper than I imagined. History is really a little girl who can be dressed up by others."

Looking at the slightly distorted Chinese sentence, Klein realized something in his heart: Maybe the diary presented by Miss "Justice" was bought from the gentleman with the word "little girl" tattooed on it... and This sentence should be the source of the "tattoo" pattern.

This passage brought him new inspiration, so Klein thought for a while, then said leisurely in a "fool" tone:

"I should have said before that Roselvin does not possess any mysterious power.

"As for these three patterns... you can understand that they have the meanings of 'weakness', 'inability to resist', and 'arbitrary manipulation by the strong'."

Do just three pictorial symbols have so much meaning? But that gentleman really lied to himself, how could such a pattern bring health and strength?

A series of thoughts flashed through "Justice" Audrey's mind, she looked at the figure shrouded in gray mist, stood up and bowed her skirt, and said: "Thank you for your answer, respected Mister Fool. "

Klein leaned back on the back of the chair, and responded calmly, "It's just an exchange of equal value."

"The Hanged Man" Alger also forcibly memorized the three symbols in his mind at this time, and at the same time kept guessing in his heart: This vocabulary must have come from the hands of Emperor Roselle, what kind of setbacks did he encounter back then? , will write such a pessimistic text? Could it be when he broke with the "Church of Steam"? Or was it a last word before he was finally assassinated?

Derrick the "Sun" has no idea who Roselle is. Although he is a little curious, he remembers that Mister Fool told him not to ask other people's secrets at will, so he just silently kept some information in his heart. .

Only Abner understands Mister Fool's "good intentions" best, and roughly guessed what Klein's thoughts are based on to explain that way, but he still couldn't help but complain in his heart:

The word "little girl" is so meaningful, what if a member of the "Tarot Club" tattoos it on his body one day to motivate himself?

"I don't want to be manipulated by others, so I want to become stronger!" The person who shouted such words carved the words "little girl" on his arm.

Such a scene flashed in his mind, and Abner took a deep breath, feeling fortunate that "star" and "moon" hadn't joined the Tarot Society yet.

Although "Sun" is also very "hot-blooded", he doesn't have any awareness of Russell's status and influence, so he probably won't do such a thing.

Seeing that the four people present had been fooled by him, Klein smiled slightly, turned his gaze to Roselle's diary in front of him, and looked down along the previous content.

"When the internal members of the seven churches are promoted in the middle and low ranks, they not only provide potion materials and specific formulas, but also demonstrate the preparation process in person... while in the high rank stage, they only provide finished potions?

"This... High Sequence should directly give 'Extraordinary Characteristics', right? That's why I won't tell the formula.

"The industrial revolution and the age of steam and machinery will become a hotbed for the birth of evil gods? Why is this?"

Klein frowned slightly, and gently tapped the edge of the ancient long table with his index finger.

Mister Fool encountered a problem? The things that could embarrass him must involve a very high level... Audrey looked at the figure shrouded in thick gray mist, and deciphered some of his current state from the body language of the other party.

At this moment, Abner took advantage of Klein's time to read the diary, and began to translate the last few pages of the diary of Baron "Conva" in his mind.

That's something he's afraid to interpret in the real world:

"Austin is dead! Dead! Killed by me! Right in front of me! No! That's not her! Not her!"

He didn't even remember the date...and the record was incoherent, almost like raving...it's lucky that he still remembered to use two layers of encryption in this state...

After only one sentence was translated, Abner frowned, because the confusion between the lines had already reflected the baron's mental state, and he was probably already half-crazy at that time.

"Haha! It's Austin's spirit! She really didn't die! She really didn't die! I sealed her in the 'door' in my body and made her my spirit! We will be together forever!

"On September 22, the decision to seal Austin in my body was indeed correct, and my spirit improved a lot because of it. At least I could calm down and think about some things... For example, is our state really okay? I checked myself The result is that everything is normal... But if there is no problem, why does every servant who has seen me suddenly disappear?"

Abner felt shuddering when he read this, and several questions involuntarily arose in his heart: Is the spirit sealed in the body of the Baron really Mrs. "Austin"? After he sealed that spirit, is the so-called "normal" restored really "normal"?

These questions lingered in his mind, and he couldn't help but translate all the following content:

"I got a lot of knowledge from behind the gate of the ancient castle that was enough to subvert my cognition of mysticism... This knowledge tells me that if I want to solve the problems on Austin and me, I need to use an item called 'Origin Castle'... But Those knowledge also told me that 'Origin Castle' does not belong to this era.

"So I decided to use a few Extraordinary items in my hand to seal myself with the knowledge gained from the 'gate' of the ancient castle, and sleep until the era of 'Origin Castle' before waking up.

"I have a strange plan, I will not miss that era."
