Mystery: Start with the Reader

　　 In the living room, Abner saw Jane. A totally different Jane from what he had known before!

　　 Her beautiful shoulder-length blond hair became extremely dim, from brilliant to gloomy. Her face, which was white and ruddy in the past, turned pale...

　　 Of course, these are not the biggest changes. What made Abner most unbelievable was that Jane’s eyes were no longer bright and cheerful, pure and lively. Instead, there was only a piece of coldness that could not be removed.

　　 Abner doesn't need to open the pure white eyes, he can know that the opponent is just becoming an Extraordinary, and the power of the potion overflowed and appeared! And the obvious sign is so big, it shows that Jane's advancement process is afraid of some problems.

After a brief reasoning in his mind, Abner guessed the general truth. He couldn't help but frown and said: "Jane, you became a'corpse collector' and you directly used Mr. Grant's extraordinary characteristics? This is an advanced level. It's very dangerous. Didn't those two remind you?"

On the other hand, Jane was actually very happy to see Abner coming over, and she still had a desire to tell him about his grievances and vent his pain. However, affected by the remnants of the potion, she is currently unable to do these close behaviors. , I just rushed to Abner instinctively, and said with a tone and expression that was as low as possible: "Ebner...you really know that my father is an extraordinary thing! You lied to me that my father was here? Volunteer...you are also an extraordinary, right?"

Abner saw Jane running towards him with a'sullen' face, and his expression looked like a'female ghost'. He almost didn't step back and raised his gun to defend himself... Fortunately, he noticed that the opponent did not have any signs of attack in time and managed to manage himself. Only then did she stretch out her hand stiffly to support her body as usual.

　　 "Obviously it is the same person, and the actions are the same as before. The former Jane can give me a relaxed and comfortable mood, but now she makes me like a big enemy!"

I sighed in my heart. On the surface, Abner seemed to be completely unaware of Jane’s changes, and said helplessly: "Jane, you have to learn to control your own behavior. Now you are a'corpse collector'. It’s up to you to hit me. With your potion-strengthened physical fitness, I’m afraid it can knock me out one or two meters away."

"Sorry... Abner, you have changed the subject again, you haven't answered my question!" Jane first apologized with a guilty conscience, and then seemed to have found some previous feelings because of Abner's unchanging attitude, just looking in his eyes. Still cold.

It seems that her character has not been affected much, which is not bad... Abner quietly breathed a sigh of relief. As long as the spirit is not contaminated, the residual effects of the potion can be digested sooner or later, at least there will be no danger of losing control. .

"Did you not answer my question? Haha, yes, I am an extraordinary. And I did find that your father had embarked on an extraordinary path, but he has never harmed anyone, and I don't want you to have a relationship with extraordinary After all, being extraordinary means danger and madness... That’s why I chose to hide part of the truth about you. Well, I didn’t lie to you. Strictly speaking, Mr. Grant really did volunteer work, right?” Abner pulled out a smile , Said.

Jane's face was cold and nodded, but the words she said were too weak to match the indifference: "Ebner...you, don't you want me to be an Extraordinary? But if I don't become an Extraordinary, I can't revenge……"

Abner sighed and said: "I just don't want you to be in danger... Hey, it doesn't make much sense to say this until now. And I won't persuade you to give up revenge, although I can't realize the hatred in your heart. , But I can understand your pain and sorrow...I just want to remind you that extraordinary roads are destined to be crazy and dangerous, and you must have this consciousness!"

"Ms. Sharon and Mr. Maric have told me... and don’t blame Mr. Maric. He has repeatedly emphasized to me the danger of directly taking Extraordinary characteristics, but I have made up my mind, no matter what. I want revenge! I want to kill the werewolf who killed my parents! I want to completely destroy the Rose School!" Jane said, her pale face became more gloomy, and the temperature in the room seemed to drop a little bit.

　　 "I only hope that after revenge, the innocent smile can return to your face." Abner did not comment on her declaration, but said so solemnly.

　　 "Thank you! Abner!" Jane's eyes seemed to soften, but she thought in her heart that she might have difficulty going back to the past.

　　Mature, often only in an instant. But the price is not something everyone is willing to pay.

　　Ebner also knew that this was just a beautiful extravagance of his own. He didn't dwell on this topic, and instead asked: "By the way, why did you call me here today? I thought it was Maric before I came here."

Jane wanted to laugh, but failed to complete the action, with a twisted expression: "Miss Sharon and Mr. Maric have recently needed to hide from enemies and officials. They often change residences and it is not convenient to take me with them, so they arranged for me to go to Enmart. I live in Hong Kong temporarily and ask others to teach me the knowledge of occult...I heard them say that it takes a lot of money to purchase materials for the promotion of Beyonders..."

　　 "I can lend you some..." Abner said directly when he heard this.

Jane shook her head and said, "I don't want to borrow money. My father told me in secret before that if something happens at home, I will go to the basement of a house in St. George's area to find him secretly hidden. Ownership... Now that I want to come, my father might have a hunch back then."

　　 It may be that he became an Extraordinary at the time and realized the danger of this road, so he prepared the back road in advance? Abner analyzed a wave habitually.

　　 At this time, Jane looked at Abner seriously and said: "Ebner, it is not convenient for me to go out now. I want you to help me give me the things my father left behind!"

"It's no problem, but why don't you entrust Maric with them? You know, the less people know about your situation, the safer you are! The penalty surrogates are sparing no effort to find you!" Abner warned her briefly and asked her to euphemistically. Able to recognize one's situation clearly.

"Because I don't believe in Maric and Sharon, although they saved me...Although they thanked me very kindly... But they are also a member of the so-called Rose School! I know I'm a little unreasonable, But I can't restrain my anger towards them!" At this point, Jane looked at Abner nervously and said, "Ebner, do you think I am bad?"

　　 "No, this is human nature! But I believe you can figure it out clearly after all and restrain your anger. After all, this matter does not have much to do with them." Abner smiled and comforted. This is also true, no matter if Sharron goes to attack the indulgences that night, the werewolf will not be able to control his desire to attack the Grant family.

"I will work hard, after all, even if my attitude is bad, they have always been patient with me... But now I only trust you, Abner! That's why I risked meeting you!" Jane said, A note with the address written long ago was handed to Abner's hand.

　　 Abner quickly weighed it and felt that there were at most some arrangements reserved by Mr. Grant, which should not be too dangerous, so he solemnly said: "Don't worry, I will not disappoint this trust!"

　　……

　　 At 1 o'clock in the evening, because the steam subway has stopped operating, it took Abner twice as much time than usual to get to the St. George area. That's it, it's because I've taken a shortcut!

　　Walking ashore from the Tassok River, Abner helped his head on the thousand-pound hat, shutting off its extraordinary ability. After checking his belongings again, he couldn't help but think of a joke he saw in the newspaper:

"A gentleman who had just arrived in Backlund lost his way in the thick smog and had to ask the wet gentleman who passed by, and asked him'how to get the Tasok River', the gentleman was very kind He replied: "Go straight, don't stop, I just swam up from there."

　　 "Although I am not a swimmer, and I am not wet, but I did just come up!" Abner smiled self-deprecatingly, and then walked straight to the address Jane gave.

　　 No. 16 Chapel Street is an independent house with a small garden. The rent is about 2 pounds a week. Mr. Grant rents such a house to hide his back hand. It is really not bad!

　　 Looking at the target house from a distance, Abner murmured a few words in his heart, but did not rush in.

He walked cautiously around the house a few times, then opened the pure white eyes to observe the details, and carried out a "scene backtracking". After confirming that there was no ambush, he cautiously walked from under a flower pot in the garden. Dig out the key, opened the door and walked in.

　　 As soon as he entered the door, Abner, who had already turned on Lingshi, saw a hideous-looking terrifying ghost, after sensing his breath, he quickly rushed towards him. Regarding this, Abner had long anticipated that, while chanting "Unsheath" in ancient Hermes, transforming the cane sword into a long sword posture, at the same time, with the speed blessed by the cane sword, he retreated calmly to the door.

　　 And the ghost only rushed to the door a few steps away so that it was restrained by some force, and could not continue forward.

"Sure enough, there are guards. Can you tell who enters by breath? If Jane comes over, he won't be attacked. Well, a ground-bound spirit of unknown species is just a living target." I quickly evaluated it in my heart. Later, Abner helped his hat, several wind blades appeared out of nowhere, and instantly scratched a few obvious scars on the ghost.

　　 The ghostly wisdom is not very high. After being really hurt, he immediately furious and scratched at Abner. It was a pity that it was bound in the house and couldn't get close at all.

"The wind blade is not a pure energy attack, it can hurt it, but its power is greatly discounted... It is better to deal with ghosts and the like, or the teacher's sun brooch!" After sighing, Abner said again. Relying on the hat to release a few'wind ropes' to barely restrain the ghost, then lift the sword up, and cut the ghost in half with a cross cut!

　　 This ‘cane sword’ possesses some of the abilities of the Sequence 8 of the ‘Twilight Giant’ pathway. In addition to its physical fitness, it can also help the holder weaken some of the opponent’s extraordinary effects, such as the ‘physical immunity’ of ghosts.

"After all, it's a weak ghost that can drive even Sequence 9!" Abner took a closer look and confirmed that the ghost was indeed killed before turning the long sword back into a cane. Then, according to the prompt on the note, he found The entrance to the basement.

　　 The basement area is not large, only about a dozen square meters, and there is nothing but a box in it.

　　 Abner carefully opened the box, and while making sure that there was no problem, he also checked and evaluated the contents.

"500 gold pounds in cash, gems and jewelry worth about 300 gold pounds, the potion formulas of Sequence 9'The Collector' and the Sequence 8'Grave Digger' and a fake ID card of'Byam'... It can be counted as a treasure!"

　　 See what Mr. Grant left behind. Abner was a little surprised, and couldn't help thinking about where the other party got so much property. That Mr. Bryan gave it? But what did he do to make that demigod so generous?

　　 After thinking about it for a long time, he still had no clue, Abner secretly mocked his occupational disease again, and put the contents of the box into the bag that he had already prepared.

　　 After finishing these ~www.NovelMTL.com~ After carefully cleaning up the traces left by him, Abner quickly returned to Jane's temporary residence in the bridge area and handed all the things to Jane.

　　 "Jane, when will you leave Backlund?" Abner looked at the girl who had gathered everything, and asked with concern.

"I'm afraid I will have to leave this afternoon... Mr. Maric said he didn't know if the officials would use any extraordinary means to find my whereabouts. The sooner I walk, the safer. Moreover, I want to become stronger as soon as possible!" Jane said in silence. .

　　 "It's true!" Abner felt that the penalty was being investigated by the penalty agent. If he changed his mechanical heart, if he asked the dog mirror hard, he might even be exposed.

　　 Of course, if the mechanical heart is changed, the teacher will be able to speak.

　　 "Will we... never see again in the future?" At this time, Jane's cold face showed a little past expression.

　　 "No, I will go to Enmat Port to see you!" Abner smiled and comforted her.

　　……

　　 In the afternoon, Abner did not personally send Jane away from Backlund. After all, that would not be good for him or Jane. Although Jane, who was a friend, temporarily stayed away from him, since the other party has found a goal and is willing to work hard for it, there is nothing he can do except blessing.

　　 Therefore, Abner quickly calmed down and devoted himself to the work and study tasks given by the teacher, as well as the analysis of ‘2-081’.

　　 More than ten days later, because Abner helped the teacher successfully complete some commissions such as throwing cats and dogs, finding objects and catching rapes, he gradually gained a reputation in the neighborhood.

　　 This day, June 25, Monday. A very attractive and beautiful woman walked into the office of Detective Isinger Stanton.
