Mystery: Start with the Reader

Because it is built against the mountain, most of the houses in Gurain City are built along the spiraling roads, and occasionally there are relatively flat and open places, which are squares or markets.

Abner traveled all the way and found that, as described in the original book, there were not too many carriages on the street, and only occasionally one or two could be seen.

The most popular means of transportation here is the "coffin" with the characteristics of East Balam, which originates from the custom of death worship and people regard the coffin as an object that can bring peace and tranquility.

Therefore, in Gurain, the coffins carried by two people, four people, eight people, and pulled by horses or one-horned sheep are the mainstream means of transportation...

After walking and stopping, Abner quickly found a house that met his requirements. After observing it in an invisible state for a while, he thought about it:

"The area is not small, but there are not many people in the family, and there are few servants. A lot of space is wasted, especially the wine cellar in the basement... Just move the wine barrels that are placed indiscriminately, and there will be enough space for the 'transportation' The altar's space is still very hidden...

"However, although this place is good, there may be better ones... and it's still early, why don't you look for it elsewhere and shop around..."

Just when he stopped to think, the coffin carried by four people happened to be lowered by the roadside.

As the lid was opened, the passenger lying in the coffin stood up and stepped out. It was a Northern Continent gentleman in a white shirt and black vest.

The gentleman's formal attire was always draped over his arms until he left the coffin.

Then, Abner watched the gentleman with slightly brown curly hair go straight to the house he was looking for, and accepted the warm welcome of his wife and daughter.

This should be a husband and father returning from a business trip... However, the operation of coming out of the coffin and going home directly is really a strange sense of disobedience... Abner complained, and then continued with his choice "White house" journey.

...

Backlund, Klein had just returned to Minsk Street after protecting reporter Mike to complete the interview with Daisy and Liv's family, when he saw Dr. Allen waiting for him at the door.

He accompanied the doctor to look for the child named "Will Auceptin" a few days ago, but unfortunately the other person has passed away, and his family has moved away long ago.

This incident was supposed to end here, but Allen suddenly had a nightmare that night,

Dreamed of a big silver snake, and the kid named "Will" was asking him for help.

After Klein's "meticulous" "reasoning", he realized that the nightmare should have originated from a thousand paper cranes that Will had given to Allen before his death.

After investigating in his dream, Klein discovered that the fight between two "Mercury Snakes" was likely to be behind the incident, so he secretly exchanged the paper crane he folded for Alan's one, so as not to cause him trouble. disaster.

And last night, the Nighthawk came to Klein's dream again to ask about this matter. After he told the other party about the Thousand Paper Crane, that "Nightmare" left happily.

Just as Klein recalled this, Allen took out his wallet and took out a thousand paper cranes, and said impatiently:

"Sherlock, I had that nightmare again last night, and I don't think it's normal.

"Do you think it's the problem?

"Ever since I found it and carried it with me, I have had nightmares."

Klein glanced at it indifferently, his expression suddenly froze. If he hadn't been a "clown" before and had a strong ability to control the facial muscles, he might even show an unconcealable smile in front of the doctor, yes, a smile.

This, this Thousand Paper Crane is uglier than mine... Could it be that this is the tradition of the Nighthawks, and the manual work is relatively poor? This was Klein's instant thought.

Undoubtedly, the thousand paper cranes in front of them were the product of another swap. After getting accurate information from themselves, the Nighthawks didn't seem to delay, and sneaked into Dr. Allen's bedroom that night to make the swap.

The operation was correct, but the work was rough... Klein shook his head secretly, then organized his words to comfort Allen, and encouraged him to talk to the bishop... After finishing speaking, he did not forget to draw a picture on his chest Triangle holy emblem.

Allen calmed down after listening to the suggestion, nodded in approval and said:

"It makes sense...I'll go to the bishop right away."

After Alan left in a hurry, Klein sighed, quickened his pace, took out the key, and opened the door of his house.

Before going in, he habitually looked at the letter box and found another letter lying in it.

Who sent it from? Klein took out the letter and glanced at the setting sun piercing through the mist.

There are no stamps...the handwriting is very beautiful, and it looks familiar...huh? This seems to be the handwriting of Miss Hazel in the Harvest Church... How could she write to me? How did you send it here?

But soon, Klein wanted to understand how the letter came.

He had brought that blood family mansion, Emlyn, to prepare potions for his neighbor, Mrs. Doris, and he had revealed his address at that time...

So, Emlyn was the "postman"?

Nodding thoughtfully, Klein entered the room and closed the door. After wearing the "Nightmare Badge", he opened the letter and began to read the letter. The "Nightmare Badge" can provide weak night vision, so it is best to save as much as possible without turning on the lights. a little.

The letter was signed by Ms. Hazel Macht, and there was not much content in it. It was just an appointment to meet him at the Harvest Church tomorrow evening, and wanted to entrust him with something.

Klein pondered for a while while holding the letter, then returned to the bedroom, took four steps against the gray fog, manifested a pendulum, and said silently:

"It's dangerous to meet Miss Hazel at the Harvest Church tomorrow."

After seven times, he opened his eyes and saw the citrine pendant turning counterclockwise.

There is no danger... It means that it is a normal entrusted task... But Miss Hazel is the daughter of a member of the House of Commons, her family is rich, and she is backed by the Church of the Mother Earth... What would I, a little detective, need to do?

Could it be the traitor who asked me to catch Mr. "Tower"?

But Mr. "Tower" seems to be in Bayam at present, which is a bit far...

Klein couldn't help but guess wildly.

...

Southern Continent, Gurain City, Upper Lip District, No. 22 Front Ya Street.

Seeing that the sun was about to set, Abner walked around the mountain city and returned to the house he had originally chosen, because he had searched for a long time, but he couldn't find anything more suitable than this one.

After making a decision, Abner concealed himself, simulated the ability to "open the door", and walked into the entrance grandly.

Before entering, he glanced back at the door plate, and saw that it was written in both Loen script and Dutan script:

"The Wall family."
