Chapter 178 and Beas

Now that I have a chance to chat, Shade recounts what happened last night. That's what happens on rainy nights. Shade kept his promise not to take any unrelated relics, and Miss Bayas also reported the names of the two people to the church this morning.

The ring warlock squad where Miss Beas was in was not assigned to deal with this matter, but she also heard from her Captain that the correspondence ring warlock broke into Mr. Ponton's house last night and killed him. What happened after the killer of [Blood of Mercury] went away.

"Detective, I guessed it must be you, your friends are really good. Judging from the fighting marks on the scene, the other party has almost no chance to fight back."

She sighed, her eyes looked towards the window.

“Isn’t it normal to play three to one and win easily?”

Shade asked as he flipped through the book, then gave a vivid example:

"The opponent is only a four-ring warlock, and the strength gap with us is not as big as the strength gap between Mouse and Mia, so when we found out that he hadn't left, he had already lost."

Miss Bayas turned her head and glanced at the cat sleeping on Shade's lap:

"Actually, the difference in strength between your cat and mouse shouldn't be too big, it doesn't look like it The kind of cat that catches mice"

Miss Bayas said, teacup in hand:

"Now that this topic is on, what additional information do you get from that killer? Is it? For example, the location of the Silver Eyed."

"I just wanted to tell you that there is a Ring Warlock in our group who is very good at interrogating information. Unfortunately, the killer doesn't know the Silver Eyed either. It's hidden there. But it can be confirmed that the silver-eyed person who was injured by the masked man under the silver moon is difficult to recover completely, so he doesn't even trust the people in his own organization."

He is poor. At one point, he said that he came, but fortunately Miss Beas didn't hear it.

"Good news, I have a greater probability of taking revenge myself."

The female warlock commented.

"Oh, we also found the location of the [God's Gift Box]."

Shade added, facing the fluttering snowflakes beckons with the hand, the denser snow fall. Snowfall has almost no consumption to him. This is not Mystic Art, it is just a small function attached to Mystic Lock. It is a natural phenomenon caused by Shade's elements interfering with reality, which is more mysterious than Mystic Art.

Miss Beas turned her back to Shade and waved her hand:
"You don't have to tell me the exact location, once the church knows the location of the relic, it will definitely look for it, and then it will definitely succeed. But this way As soon as it comes, the silver-eyed person may leave Tobesque, and I don't know where to find him."

She has full confidence in the Orthodox Church, and this confidence is justified. Even if the silver-eyed man was not seriously injured, he would not be considered a great threat in the Major Sect area where several warlocks with ten or more rings were in town.

Shade nods, and also suggested:

"But after the matter is over, we can make an appointment, and tell the church and the Academy about the news of this sage relic almost at the same time. In this way, everyone can get the reward."

Miss Beas looked back at him unexpectedly, and looked at Shade with her beautiful eyes:

"Detective, you What an idea."

In addition to Shade's remarks about last night, Miss Beas also shared with Shade about the large and small parish of Tobesque. The ring warlock of the church must know more information than the ring warlock of the Academy, and Miss Beas is focusing on the Lakeview Manor incident and last Saturday night.

With the promotion of the church, more investigations have been carried out on the above incidents, including the loss of control of the relics, and the origin of Evil God has basically been clarified. It's a pity that the church is currently tracking down the scales within the parish, hoping to find clues to the "high ring warlock" that casts the mysterious lock.

In this way, the fish scales in Miss Luyesha's hands are even more difficult to sell.

"Detective, what did you do just now? Are you entrusted?"

Miss Beas is also curious about her chance encounter with Shade.

"No, I just came out of the Society of Prophets and met Mr. Tobesque Branch President Stein there."

Shade said holding the book, Mia was a long The strip lay on his lap, the cat's chin against Shade's leg, a position she liked very much for some reason.

"Mr. Stan? Oh? He actually came back?"

Miss Beas was surprised by this, and even temporarily relaxed her movements and turned around. Chat with Shade:
"Mr. Addis Stein, he can be regarded as the most powerful fortune-teller in the Diocese of Tobesque. Although he has only ten rings, his level of fortune-telling is quite high. Entrusted by the Creation Church, go to the countryside of Tobesque and assist the 'steel right hand' Sarri Pilot to deal with the out-of-control incident of the angel-level relic. Since he is back, Mr. Pilot will be back soon if he wants to come. Plus tomorrow, our church's thirteen-ring warlock will arrive in Tobesque, and there will be two thirteen-ring warlocks in this diocese by then."

Shade is the first to hear about the Prophet Society and the Orthodox Church. However, he is concerned about another point:
"Is that Mr. Stan's divination level high? Actually, I asked him to help with divination today, but he doesn't seem to use any means of circumventing the warlock."

He put the book down and asked cautiously.

"Mr. Stein's level of divination is of course very high, if you give an example."

Miss Beas thought about it:

"If Tobesque There is only one person in the city who can predict the location of the silver-eyed person, so it must be him. But the detective, the brilliant fortune-teller, can divination even without the ability of the ring warlock, this is an innate talent, of course, it may also be his' Another unique ability of mine. But Mr. Stein has always been cautious, as long as he makes a divination, there is a high probability that it will come true. What did he divination for you?"

The young girl with long brown hair inquired curiously:
"Good news or bad news?"

"He said he saw a Knight."

Shade still wondered.

"Knight? Is this some kind of metaphor?"

Miss Beas asked in confusion, seeing that Shade couldn't give an answer, she looked at Shade's He changed his face and changed the subject:

"There's something I've always wanted to ask you. I just remembered not long ago that the first time we met, it should be that pet store, right?"

"Yes, what are you talking about?"

Shade asked in confusion.

"I didn't remember the first meeting before, not because I forgot, but because your face was a little different from the first time we met."

brown The long-haired girl is slightly frowned.

"I don't look the same?"

He touched his face suspiciously, then remembered that old John had said something similar last night.

"No, it's not a big change, it's just a subtle difference."

Miss Bayas squinted and thought for a moment:
"The person you see often , or if you observe every day, you probably can't feel it at all. But we met again after a week of separation. At Lake View Manor, didn't you pretend to be hypnotized by Captain? I didn't recognize you at that time, because the first The first time we met was a pass, and the second time your face was a little different."

"Is there such a thing?"

He put the lazy cat on the sofa , ignoring its dissatisfaction, and walked quickly to the bathroom. He can see his face in the mirror every day when he washes his face, and he doesn't notice any difference.

"Simply put, he's probably a little more handsome than before. I don't mean anything else, that's the truth."

Miss Bayas' voice continued from the kitchen .

“Handsome?”

Shade stretched his head in front of the sink, looking at his face in the mirror. The face of the original ex-hobo can only be regarded as barely in line with Shade's aesthetics. And handsome or something, he didn't see much.

But this time, the face shape is still the same as before, and the appearance is indeed much more handsome than before. And more importantly, from a certain angle, he vaguely saw the traces of his original face on this typical Caucasian face.

It's not very obvious, just like what Miss Bayas said, it's just that the original face that was okay, has some slight changes. These subtle changes made the face of a foreigner look a little more handsome.

Since Miss Beas said that when she saw Shade in the garden labyrinth of Lake View Manor, Shade's face was already a little different, so it must not be because of that drop of divinity, divinity It only appeared after the second encounter with Miss Beas.

"Is it because the soul affects the body?"

He thought suspiciously in his heart, and then asked the voice in his heart.

[Maybe so. ]

She whispered in her ear.

"This shouldn't be a bad thing, right?"

He looked at the face in the mirror, and when he came to this strange world half a month, he had basically accepted it. This appearance:
"As long as the change is not too obvious, it is not a bad thing."

Finally made this conclusion.

The two of them spent the afternoon together quite happily. Shade vaguely felt that on this path of becoming a friend, ally and even a close collaborator with Miss Beas, for some reason, he was probably more Diviners with purple eyes are faster.

Even, Miss Bayas actually mentioned Miss Anat in front of Shade:

"Detective, if you still want to do divination, I recently met a very good one. Diviner, although not sure if it is a ring warlock, but she may be able to help you and have the opportunity to introduce you to each other, but"

Miss Bayas hesitated.

“What’s the matter?”

Shade picked up the water glass to drink.

"However, I always feel that the beautiful female fortune teller is approaching me for other purposes. It is not malicious, but it is strange. I just feel that she has other purposes. Does she like me? ?"

Shade, who was drinking water, almost spit out the water in his mouth. But Rao was like this, he was still choked and coughed, and while his body was shaking, he woke the cat from the nap. It stood up neatly from Shade's lap and said "meow wu~" to Miss Beas, but didn't lose his temper, because it was almost time for the cat's usual home walk.

"So, do you think I'm close to you, do you have any other purpose?"

After coughing a few times, in order not to let Miss Anat work so hard to set up in front of Miss Bayas The good impression was ruined, and Shade could only change the subject.

"You approach me? Isn't it always me approaching you?"

Miss Bayas said strangely, and then counted again and again:

"That time at the pet store was a chance encounter. You can't wait to stay away from us in Lake View Manor. I came to you on the day of the Lucky Southern Cross Club, and I took the initiative to ask you for help the night you played Rhodes. Today is a real coincidence. Detective, when have you approached me?"

She turned her back to Shade and chuckled:
"Speaking of which, sometimes I even think that every time you talk to me , are kind of avoiding what I mean."

PS: Subtly adjusted part of the content of chapters 33 and 34 (the conversation part after Shade made the dark box out of control), no plot adjustments, just Changed the dialogue between the two sides to become more natural. If you are interested, you can take a look. If you don't watch it, it will not affect the follow-up plot.
