Mystery: Start with the Reader

Leleton Street, Jorwood.

Abner turned his head, looked at the rental carriage passing by him, and the slightly familiar figure sitting in the carriage, he couldn't help squinting his eyes, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Yes, the delicate girl who looked like she failed to disguise herself as a man in Alec was exactly Abner who wore a "clown mask" and went out with the face of an ordinary woman.

The reason why he chose to change his face to carry out this entrusted task was because Roman's fiancé Alec recognized him. The news about him has been so hot in the past few days. If he shows his true face and is recognized by Alec, it will inevitably arouse the vigilance of the other party, which is not conducive to the follow-up investigation.

And the reason why they met on the road so coincidentally is because...

"The lucky effect of this gold coin blessing is really impressive."

Abner murmured silently, played with the Solomon Empire gold coin whose blood had been wiped off in his hand, and put it back into his pocket.

Before he went out to investigate, he asked Judy and Susan about Alec's address and a few places he frequented. Because he was worried that he would waste time if he didn't meet him, Abner blessed himself with Solomon Empire gold coins.

Who would have thought that just after he left the office and entered the Jowood area, he happened to pass by Alec's carriage, and "extracted" a breath of Alec's breath the moment he recognized him as Roman's fiance.

"Alec has become an Extraordinary? It seems that he has just been promoted not long ago, and he still lacks knowledge of some common sense in the Extraordinary field. Otherwise, if I extract his breath face to face, he won't even have a reaction...

"Is it the potion given to him by his suspected lover? Well, I heard that Alec really likes occult knowledge, and Roman joined Copusty's society precisely because he wanted to cater to his hobby.

"It seems that his so-called lover should be an Extraordinary...or an Extraordinary who can give potion formulas at will..."

Abner thought of this, and instead of catching up with the carriage immediately, he took off his mask and returned to the office. He made a batch of short-acting charms with rituals and put them on his body, and then put the piano case containing the "Sword of Dawn" After getting up, he secretly put on his mask again after leaving the office, and stopped a taxi.

The coachman looked at Abner's clothes and the face generated by the mask, pretending not to see that it was a "lady", and asked, "Sir, where are you going?"

Abner boarded the carriage,

After sitting down, he said to the driver:

"Follow my directions and go to the end of this street first."

"Okay." The coachman didn't ask why.

In the carriage, Abner took out the Solomon Empire gold coin and started divination.

As a Extraordinary of the "Reader" sequence, he was not very good at divination, but he held the aura extracted from Alec in his hand, and besides, the Solomon Empire gold coin itself also had a bonus effect on the divination effect , and he is wearing the "clown mask" of the Seer Sequence. All these factors are superimposed, so that his divination effect at this moment will not be much worse than that of the Seer of Sequence 9.

"The whereabouts of the owner of the breath in my hand."

After silently reading a few times, Abner threw up the gold coin and let it fall freely. After spinning in mid-air for a few weeks, this two-colored Solomon gold coin unexpectedly landed on the seat of the carriage.

"Go straight!" Seeing that the carriage had just reached the end of the street, Abner hurriedly gave instructions to the driver.

The front means turning left, the reverse means turning right, and standing upright means going straight.

Going all the way like this, Abner kept asking the driver to adjust the direction, and finally arrived at a house facing the street in St. George's District. When he walked around just now, he noticed that there was a factory building and a warehouse behind it, which was obviously a factory. facade.

I tossed the gold coin again, and it turned out to be spinning on the ground, neither falling nor standing up...

Seeing such a scene, Abner knew that the person he was looking for should be in the factory, so he paid 4 soli to the driver, and jumped out of the carriage with the piano case on his back.

Abner did not stop in front of the main entrance where the security guards stood, but walked along the factory wall until it reached the corner.

He looked around and saw that no one was paying attention here, so he took out an oil paint brush from his pocket and drew a square door frame on the wall.

Then, Abner turned on the "Pure White Eye" to simulate the "apprentice"'s ability to "open the door", and walked directly into the factory area from the drawn door frame.

After entering the factory area, Abner simulated the "stealth" ability to hide his figure, while constantly "extracting" and "backtracking", looking for Alec's whereabouts.

Since this Mr. Roman's fiancé may really have just become a Extraordinary and lacks the necessary common sense, so there are too many traces left behind by him. After a while, Abner caught the "tail" and followed him to a Outside a dilapidated warehouse.

...

On the other hand, after Alec got the medicine from the fat pharmacist, he took a carriage directly to the factory area of ​​his factory, and quickly walked into an old warehouse on the southeast side of the factory.

Although the sun was still shining brightly outside, the warehouse was extremely dim due to poor lighting. Alec lit the gas lamp that had been prepared before, and only then could he barely see things clearly.

"Ma'am, I brought back the potion." Alec shouted a few times, but there was still no movement in the warehouse. Just when he was a little impatient and wanted to shout again, a crisp female voice sounded behind him:

"Shut up! I'm checking to see if you've been marked by someone else."

Hearing this voice, Alec turned his head happily, and sure enough, he saw a beautiful girl with a pure face holding a ring facing him, and the blue gemstone on the ring emitted a few rays of light and swept across his body .

"No problem... It seems that no one has noticed you." The girl breathed a sigh of relief, then took the glass medicine bottle from Alec's hand, appraised it briefly, opened the lid and drank it in one gulp.

Alec wanted to stop it, but before he could say anything, he saw the girl drink the potion, so he had to persuade him tactfully: "Ma'am, that folk herb shop is not in compliance at first glance, you should go to a more formal hospital to see it." of."

The young girl could guess what he was thinking, so she shook her head and said with a smile: "Although the pharmacist in the folk herbal medicine shop seems unreliable, his ability is still very good...just not very good at speaking human words."

"Not very good at speaking human language? That's right, he's a mute, so naturally he can't speak human language...I didn't expect you, ma'am, to make such a joke." Alec said in surprise.

"Mute? Did you go to the wrong shop?" This time it was the young girl's turn to be surprised, and asked Alec about his previous experience.

After Alec recounted all the details of the herb shop, the young girl thought to herself, "It seems that someone who can't stand him has finally made him dumb..."

It seemed that seeing the girl in a good mood today, not as cold as in the past, Alec seized the opportunity to ask: "Ma'am, look, I have completed the task you assigned, can I use the 'Sequence 8'?" The potion formula was given to me?"

The young girl glanced at him with a half-smile, and said, "You've only drank the 'Seer' potion for two days, right? You haven't even mastered meditation yet, so you're thinking about the next potion formula? Haha , I can tell you clearly that if you advance to Sequence 8 in your current state, you will lose control and become a monster 100% of the time."

Alec was a little frustrated when he heard the words, and complained casually: "I wasn't in such a hurry at first, but the ability of this 'Seer' sequence is too far behind my vision of Extraordinary... It has neither the ability to fight frontally nor There is no tricky method, I can only open my spirit vision to see the so-called 'spiritual body', at most, I will have a spiritual response when others look at me..."

"Wait!" Before Alec finished speaking, he was interrupted by the young lady. Her face was no longer as relaxed as before, and she asked Alec seriously, "You said 'when others look at you? Are you telepathic'? When did this happen?"

Alec was terrified by the girl's aura, but couldn't help but be attracted by her face. Under the double feeling of fear and excitement, he stumbled and said: "On the way back... I and a person who came towards me What happened when the girls looked at each other..."

"Idiot...that's a spiritual warning, you're being targeted by her!" While speaking, the young girl quietly put an unusually cold paw on her hand.

"Warning? But I don't feel any danger..." Alec asked in confusion.

But at this time, the young girl was no longer in the mood to talk to him, because she noticed that there were uninvited guests in the warehouse.

"None of the rune traps and vigilance rituals I set up were touched... Only the 'sense of smell' brought by the 'Ice Claw' made me vaguely smell the smell of strangers... The person who came was a ritual magician. expert?"

Thinking of this, the girl's innocent eyes were stained with a layer of darkness, and a dozen black flames lingered around her. She decided to act first and force people to come out in the future, otherwise, when the other party calmly arranged the ceremony in the dark, it would be difficult for her to escape.

Alec on the side looked a little dazed, and envy rose in his heart, because such a scene is the Extraordinary in his dreams!

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

Blossoming black flames shot towards every dark corner of the warehouse like bullets.

Most of the black flames fell on the goods in the warehouse, but they did not burn, because this kind of black flame can only affect living or spiritual things.

However, when a black flame shot into a corner on the left hand side, a figure appeared out of thin air, and then this figure was driven by a gust of wind from nowhere, and in the blink of an eye it approached the young girl. in front of you.

The figure raised a big sword, and slashed down on the girl.
