Mystery: Start with the Reader

After Abner finished recording the free school's "video teaching" and "after-school impromptu magic show", he took Fors to Sage Street in St. George's District to visit the great inventor Mr. Leppard.

——Abner previously gave the other party the drawings of the "camera" and "projector" that he designed without the involvement of extraordinary abilities, and asked him to help improve and produce a prototype... After a few days, it should be almost completed.

Leppard is a tall, thin man in his thirties with black hair and blue eyes. Although he is wearing gray-blue worker's clothing, he looks elegant.

The inventor seemed very happy to see Abner and took the two directly to his studio and to a mechanical device that was as tall as a person.

"The principle of the camera code you conceived is not responsible, and it is obviously well thought out. There is not much I can improve...but the gramophone built into it is an invention that transcends the times. Until now, I have been rushing for your genius design. to surprise.

"Haha, things like sonic vibrators have been around for a long time, but no one paid much attention to it. Only you thought of using the technology of using a metal needle to score a wax cylinder to reproduce the sound.

"And this opened my mind, and I made a series of changes based on your drawings... Now, this prototype can record more than 20 minutes of video and sound recording."

Leppard introduced excitedly. He really felt that participating in such an invention would be enough to leave his name in history! He even wanted to return the money he collected in the early stage to Detective Brian in front of him. After all, he thought he had taken a big advantage.

Forsi looked at the "behemoth" placed there with a strange expression. After all, the mystical version of "Fangdian" she had just experienced had been recorded continuously for several hours...

"Very good." Abner praised after briefly trying it out, and then asked, "Where is the projection equipment?"

"The prototype of the projection equipment has also been built, but it has not been tested yet. You can come over a day or two later and see the demonstration." Leppard said confidently.

Abner just nodded. In fact, he currently does not have high requirements for ordinary people's versions of cameras and projectors. As long as he can apply for a patent and convince others that it is indeed a "scientific" product.

As for the planned "screening" for nobles, parliamentarians, and church bishops next Tuesday, it is natural to use the occult version of "Algorithm" to complete... After all, it has a clearer picture and a more realistic sound.

After being recognized by the nobility and the church, and with large investments, these ordinary people's versions of the equipment will naturally become more and more mature.

After inspecting Leppard's work, Abner generously wrote him a check for 100 gold pounds as a reward. Then he and Forsi left the inventor's residence and frequently visited various offices in the Church of Steam. The bishop of the church comes.

And with the reputation of the teacher's friend, Ms. Linton of Leverage Church, their visit went very smoothly.

But even so, after returning to the villa at No. 28 Jinster in the evening, Forsi, who had been working as a bag-carrying secretary all day, collapsed on the sofa in the living room in a very shameless manner.

Mrs. Scudder thoughtfully brought a cup of coffee. After saying thank you, Forsi picked up the cup and drank it.

Then, she complained to Abner, who was still calm and composed:

"Does running around with you all day really help the 'Master of Tricks' digest?"

This is for you to experience "Traveler" in advance... After thinking in his mind, Abner took a sip of coffee and said with a smile: "If you use my company to perform, you have to pay some compensation... …

"What's more, Xio asked me to supervise your weight loss."

Forsi was speechless for a long time, and could only say feebly: "That delicious coffee shop closed for some reason... I don't need to lose weight now."

Huh? Lina and Xiaoko's cafe is closed? I also said before that I should go find them and ask them if there are any recipes left by time travellers...

However, it closed after the great smog incident... Xio also told me that Prince Edsac did not actually die, but was rescued... In addition, before and after the prince disappeared, Forsi's bracelet was missing. a rock"……

Those two witches may already be Klein’s people!

So, they are actually the "royal" chefs raised by Mr. "Fool"?

Klein's little life was going well...

…

On the White Agate docked at Bansi Port, Klein, who "had a good little life", stood by the window, looking at the waves blown by the wind. Even if he didn't divination in the mysterious space above the gray fog, he could just rely on With my own spiritual intuition, I can also vaguely detect that something bad is brewing or happening.

After waiting for five minutes, he still didn't see Captain Ireland and Donna's family return. Klein closed his eyes, then made up his mind, took off his half-high silk hat, and looked at "Fire Flame" Daniz without expression. "You are free," he said.

Daniz was stunned for a moment, then understood what the other party meant, and blurted out in shock:

"Are you going to save the captain and those ordinary people?

"You, you said there was danger outside!"

While twisting the door handle, Klein responded calmly:

“They’ve worked with me.

“They kept my secret.

“He treated me to fish-man meat.

“He helped me compensate for the losses of ‘Flying Fish and Wine’.”

... Daniz didn’t react for a moment and subconsciously asked:

"How much compensation was paid?"

"A few soles." Klein opened the door and walked out.

Even though he clearly knew that this was Binxi and involved the descendants of the King of Angels, Klein still did not flinch.

madman! Daniz cursed secretly, but still followed his footsteps.

…

On Monday morning, when the sun slowly rose and illuminated the entire port, Klein, who had been on guard since he led Captain Ireland and the little girl Donna's family back to the White Agate last night, was relieved.

Standing on the side of the ship, he saw the residents here going out one after another, bathing in the golden sunshine, chatting and laughing while going to their respective jobs.

Port Bansi has a human touch again.

But Klein knew that things were far from over... Just like the weird telegraph office in the town!

While thinking in his mind, he reached out and took out a dark fragment from his pocket, put it in front of him and looked at it carefully... That was once his "confession" revolver!

Last night, as he approached the gate of the telegraph office, the revolver that had been with him for several months suddenly transformed into a monster, spreading out layers of spider silk, trying to entangle him.

Fortunately, Klein himself had the ability to control fire, and relied on the "Sun Brooch" to ignite the "Fire of Light", and then the monster was eliminated... But "Confession" was inevitably completely destroyed.

Witches and hunters are interchangeable paths at high levels. My "Confession" is a magical item with the witch's ability, and Bansi is the residence of the descendants of the "Red Angel"...

So, is there something terrifying in the telegraph office that affects these two channels?

What will it be? If we delve deeper, will it lead to the "Redemption Rose"?

Several times just now, I was dancing on the edge of the cliff... Fortunately, Mr. "Tower" reminded me not to explore in depth, and I restrained my impulse and suppressed my curiosity about the strange situation in the telegraph office...

Klein looked away and had a firm thought in his heart:

"Report it quickly!"

…

Backlund, Queens, in the luxurious villa of Earl Hall.

Audrey stood behind the white gold-plated railing on the second floor, watching the servants on the first floor coming and going, busy.

According to the customs of the Loen Kingdom, nobles with fiefdoms will leave Backlund one week after the New Year's Ball, return to their own territories, and enjoy a pleasant life in the countryside or castle. They will not return to the capital until June to start their day-to-day life. Of course, a powerful nobleman and big banker like Earl Hall must often travel between the two places to handle affairs.

In two or three days, around this time on Wednesday or Thursday, I should be on the steam train back to East Chester County... I hope that Mr. Vampire can really get the fruit of the Tree of Elders and the blood of the Mirror Dragon , so that I can become a "psychiatrist" before leaving Backlund... Audrey thought divergently.

At this moment, Countess Caitlin came over and said with a smile:

"Her Highness Vera just made a special trip to send a few invitations. It is said to be the first display of a new type of drama... Do you want to go and see it with me?

"Once we leave Backlund, this new thing won't be so common."

Princess Vera suspected of "trial"? Audrey almost didn't think about it and answered directly:

"Mom, you know, I'm always interested in new things!"

…

Harvest Church, Bridge South District.

Emlyn, who was forcibly memorizing Hazel's manuscript, suddenly found a "shadow" covering him. He looked up and saw the tall body of Bishop Utravsky.

"Father, what do you want?" Emlyn glanced at the prayer hall in confusion, but did not see any believers coming in.

"I saw you were reading the Russell manuscript copied by Pastor Macht. Ying Ga was interested in this...and I just got a new page, so I will give it to you as a reward." Bishop Utravsky smiled. said.

Is there such a good thing? Emlyn took it and found that the handwriting on it was much neater than Hazel's copy, so he expressed his gratitude to the priest and memorized this page of notes first.

"No need to thank me, this is all arranged by the Merciful Mother." Bishop Utravsky smiled gently.

"Yes...yes..." After a few perfunctory words, Emlyn still forgot where he saw and had to start his memory again.

…

Above the boundless gray mist, the magnificent palace stands quietly.

Miss "Justice" looked at the top of the mottled long table, led a group of Tarot Club members, and greeted Mr. "Fool":

"Good afternoon, Mr. Fool~"

Then, Audrey said hello in a brisk tone, starting with "The Fool" and ending with "The World".

This order is not based on the seating arrangement, but follows the rules of Tarot cards. "The Fool" contains all possible beginnings, and "The World" is the ending of perfect sublimation.

What a well-born, carefree girl... Emlyn pretended to be deeply judgmental and politely responded to the other party's greetings.

During this process, he caught sight of the "Sun" next to him from the corner of his eye, and couldn't help but think of his experience in learning the detailed history of the Vampire Clan at "Baron" Wymandy's house in the past few days.

There are indeed many details that I don’t know. There is indeed a difference between professional researchers and amateurs. However, starting from this week, I, Emlyn White, will be a professional researcher... This time It will definitely convince you to accept the fact that your Silver City has fake history...

I go to work in Abner's company for half the day, clean the church for the other half, and study all night. I can only accompany my doll in the second half of the night. This kind of life is very fulfilling... Emlyn's thoughts gradually began to wander.

Suddenly, he frowned and discovered a very important question:

“Why do I still go to Harvest Church every day?”

But thinking of the painful patients before, Emlyn's brows gradually relaxed and became softer.

At this time, he saw "Justice" diagonally opposite looking at the figure in the thick fog again, and said in a rising voice:

"Dear Mr. Fool, I got three more pages of Russell's diary~"

Seeing this, Emlyn also quickly said: "I brought six pages of diary this time."

It seems like a lot, but I don’t have any expectations... "The Fool" Klein was complaining inside, but on the surface he pretended to be calm and said: "Very good, what do you want in exchange?"

"I want to see the two 'blasphemy cards' you have in hand." Emlyn was prepared and made the request directly.

He had been thinking about this during the tarot session last week.

"No problem." Klein breathed a sigh of relief and showed Emlyn the image of Russell's spider silk bandage outfit and black emperor outfit in a good mood, and also let him see the name of the potion.

Sequence 0... So this is what the "blasphemous card" means... In other words, the Tarot Club currently has all the recipes for the two paths? This organization is really high-end!

After reading the contents of the card, Emlyn sat back and leaned back in his chair with satisfaction. He felt that it was worth it to know the names of one or two sequence 0 potions with just a few diaries!

On the other side, with Miss Justice and Mr. Moon demonstrating, Magician Forsi also spoke:

"Mr. Fool, I also have three new pages of Russell's diary here."

The diary was attached to her teacher Dorian's reply to her letter.

“Sun” Derrick followed closely:

"Great Mr. Fool, I copied some legends of ancient gods."

"That's right." "The Fool" nodded with a smile. The legend of the ancient god "Sun" was used to pay for the previous protection. You can watch it with peace of mind... But Miss "Magician"'s debt has been transferred to "The World", but It must be "exchanged at equal value".

With this thought in his mind, Klein looked at "Magician" Forsi and asked calmly: "What do you want to exchange?"

"Dear Mr. Fool, I would like to exchange for the potion formula of the Knowledgeable One." Forsi, the "Magician" said after taking a look at the "World" at the bottom.

Ah, this... Mr. "To", who was sitting opposite Forsi, suddenly felt "joyful" in his heart and almost laughed out loud.
