Mystery: The Witch and the Calamity

Thomas' father is a Viscount, but he is only the second son in the family and cannot inherit the title. This is similar to the situation of Audrey's brother, Alfred.

It is worth mentioning that perhaps it is precisely because of this similar identity that the two have become good friends in Backlund. They joined the army in the same batch, but Thomas joined MI9 and came to Bayam, while Al Fred went to the southern continent.

The red light of the setting sun shone on the MI9 headquarters building, and Thomas got off work on time after finishing his day's work.

Back at the residence, the young Mr. Housekeeper reported:

"Baron Best has left Bayam, and he sent someone to deliver a letter."

Let's go now, it seems very urgent...Thomas thought, and after opening the envelope, he found familiar handwriting, which was written by himself.

And the content of this letter is intact, but at the end of the letter, someone wrote a signature: forever friend, Louise.

Thomas leaned on the back of the soft and comfortable sofa, looked up at the simple ceiling without frills, thought of something, and smiled.

…………

At the same time, Louise, who had become a "witch", was standing alone on the bow of the "Purple Rose", looking at the endless sea and Bayam, which had almost disappeared from sight.

Captain Franky has already bid farewell and left, and he seems to be greeting other first-class passengers...

It is an interesting experience for someone who has never been a first-class passenger in his previous life to enjoy the service of a distinguished member and be personally received by the captain.

As Captain Franky said, the sea breeze did tend to gradually increase, blowing the long skirt on her body, which was tightly attached to the skin and fluttered backwards, outlining the straight and slender leg line.

There was a clear bird cry, and when I looked up, I saw a lonely seabird hovering in the air.

Seeming to have found the target, the seabird rushed to the surface of the sea. However, what it picked up was not food, but a glass bottle.

This made it a little confused, and almost forgot to wave its wings until the tip of its claws touched the surface of the sea, and then it flew up. The glass bottle was also cruelly thrown down by it, and continued to float on the surface of the sea, not knowing where it would go.

Louise witnessed the whole process clearly, and she put it on with a smile. She saw that the glass bottle was filled with paper, and thought to herself, would there be drifting bottles in this world...

Suddenly, on a whim, she wanted to see what was written there, but she quickly shook her head, feeling amused by her boring thought, then ignored it and turned back to the cabin.

…………

Louise's judgment was correct, it was indeed a drifting bottle.

She is no stranger to the owner of the drift bottle, William Best, the father of Joyce Best.

What is contained in the bottle is the evidence of Charlie's investigation of the missing persons case, which is the "William's list" that Major General Bright and the dead "witch" Ianna said.

…………

This is a father's story.

William Best is a very keen and capable person, otherwise he would not have been promoted to lieutenant colonel step by step by virtue of his merits.

Accidentally, he found that military personnel were involved in Rorsted's missing persons case, and his long-held sense of justice forced him to catch this pest.

Therefore, William chose to pretend to cater to him. After a thorough investigation, he finally found the mastermind behind the scenes, Major General Bright.

During this period, due to his outstanding performance, he was even awarded the title of baron, which was his greatest wish in his life... However, this also gave him a deeper understanding of the power Brett represents , he realized that it was impossible for him to bring down the opponent.

Therefore, William found an opportunity to reveal a little news to the Church of Storms, trying to leverage his strength.

But for some reason, this news accidentally leaked, and he began to be targeted and even hunted down by Major General Bright, and Diago was one of them.

In desperation, William had no choice but to hide the evidence he had investigated in a glass bottle and throw it into the sea at will.

After that, die calmly.

His purpose of doing this is very simple, to check and balance... It is precisely because of this character that William is often able to digest potions very quickly, and he is really suitable for the judge path.

William knew that after his death, the people around him would definitely be investigated by Major General Bright, which naturally included his son, the only heir of the Best family, Joyce Best.

However, it is impossible for the other party to find evidence that he threw it into the sea...

This constitutes a long-term deterrence. If the evidence is not found, Bright will never dare to take risks, and Joyce will not be in danger, because no one wants to see the result of mutual damage.

What's more, Joyce really doesn't know anything... He will inherit the title of baron and revitalize the glory of the Best family.

Everything seems to be perfect, but there is also a disadvantage in doing so, that is, Rorsted's human trafficking cannot be stopped in a short time, and more innocent people will be hurt because of it...

For the sake of his son and family, William gave up the fairness and justice of his life. Before he died, he had self-blame, remorse, and relief...

However, he never expected that Joyce would be taken away and traveled through!

The reborn "Joyce" did not live in a fragile balance like a doll without knowing anything as William imagined.

Instead, he made a crazier choice. Although he didn't know anything about William, he keenly discovered this balance, and used it to jump left and right, and finally achieved his goal and won a big victory.

Joyce did what William failed to do. Perhaps William, with his soul, would be gratified by this.

From this point of view, it seems that "Joyce after time travel" is more like William's son than the original "Joyce"... Unfortunately, no matter what, she has become a daughter now...

…………

Louise had no idea what she was missing, but these things didn't seem to matter much to her.

Back in the first-class cabin, she called for dinner service. The food was richer and not bad in taste. After all, the "Purple Rose" was a merchant ship, and food reserves were also one of the selling points to attract passengers.

What made her more curious was that the way the three of Gerald ate was very strange.

When one person is enjoying the food, the other two are watching from the sidelines, and then take turns to eat. Whoever is eating will be responsible for communicating with Louise... It seems that only one of the three can open his mouth... This The downside is interesting.

Through this, Louise finally heard Quim Hagin's voice, which was also rough and gloomy, with undisguised malice.

"Is there anything unusual?" she asked routinely.

"everything is normal……"

I don’t know how many people still remember this "William’s List"... I originally wrote that the main character got the drift bottle with his own hands. Although it seemed deliberate, it was very romantic... But in the end, I chose to use narration to complete it the whole story
