Mystery: Shadow of Order Chapter 222

The second floor of the front of the candy store is sealed, with only two windows, but it is possible to go around to the back, where there is an open balcony with direct access to the second floor.

Rawls estimated the distance and height. After a run-up of more than ten meters, he jumped up and easily grabbed the raised position on the edge of the balcony. With the help of the strength of his waist and abdomen, he swayed his body and legs and jumped up again to catch it. Balcony railing. The arms led the body to rise and turned into the balcony.

Although there was a door blocking the balcony and the interior, when he was squatting downstairs, he found that the door was not locked, but half-open. Slowly push the half-open wooden door open. This kind of wooden door, which has been corroded by moisture all the year round, is easy to make noise as long as the movement is slightly larger.

Entering the second-floor room along the balcony, you can clearly see the layout of the house by today's crimson moonlight. Where Rawls is now is the living room, and there are two closed rooms on the opposite side, one of which should be a bedroom.

The living room was empty, with neither a sofa nor a coffee table, just a low table and a few wooden chairs with old cushions. There were two aprons on the wooden chairs, and a candlestick on the low table. On the side of the wall near the balcony, five or six familiar sacks were piled up, exuding a pungent herbal smell.

[The book chasing app recommended to me by an old book friend who I have known for ten years, Mimi read! It's so easy to use, I rely on this reading aloud to pass the time before driving and before going to bed, you can download it here]

Slowly moving to the low table almost silently, he pulled out the half of the candle, and Rawls took out the candle he was carrying from the pocket of his trench coat and inserted it. This is a candle with some special materials, which does not require the use of matches, and can be easily lit only by spiritual friction.

Picking up the candlestick, Rawls walked over to the sacks and squatted down. He opened the bag, and the strong and pungent herbal smell came out.

After searching carefully along the living room for a while, I found that there was nothing special except for the two rooms with doors that were not closed, and then I walked down the stairs slowly to the first floor.

Different from the east-west layout upstairs, the first floor of the candy store has a north-south layout. After going downstairs, Rawls came directly to the candy making area.

With the help of the dim candlelight, he glanced at it, and Rawls found the thing he was most concerned about during the day, the strange copper spoon in the copper pot. He picked up the copper spoon and looked at the brass-colored spoon handle that was obviously much thicker. There was a clear glass column on the back of the spoon handle. There were scale scratches beside the glass column, and a finger was at the connection between the spoon handle and the spoon. size glass bubbles.

thermometer?

Rawls, who probably guessed what it was, was a little excited. He didn't know why there was no such thing as a thermometer in this world. Even the great inventor, Roselle Edison, didn't invent such a thing.

Carefully placing the candle flame next to the glass bubble, he saw an orange-yellow line jumping up immediately, scaring Rawls to quickly remove the candlestick. He almost forgot that the candle was burning at a high temperature.

Putting the copper spoon into the copper pot, Rawls came to the long table for sugar making, and there were several small equipment on it. After playing with it a few times, he did not find anything special.

There were either bags of sugar or flour near the long table, and there was no trace of what Hillier had secretly added during the day when he was making candy.

So it's still in the two rooms above?

Rawls touched his chin. He just confirmed that the two rooms are tightly closed. Unless he violently demolishes the door, he will definitely not be able to open it. He has no such skills. But it would be better to arrest the Hilliers and interrogate them!

The Brave Bar has been closed. The "gas explosion" that happened on this street last week really scared many nearby businesses. Although the "punishers" of the Steam Church provided door-to-door service, the explosion still failed to recover. impact here.

What's more, it's already midnight, and Tiemen Street, where there are few gas street lights, is empty, and only a figure is parked in front of the gate of the Brave Bar.

The figure was wearing a black knee-length trench coat, a top hat, leaning on a cane, and knocking on the closed door unhurriedly.

After a few minutes of knocking on the door, an old voice sounded.

"The bar is closed now, come back tomorrow!"

"Caspers, I'm looking for you, about Ian Wright."

After a long silence, there was a sound of unlocking the door, the door of the bar opened, and an old man with a rosacea nose and a terrible scar on his face came out, holding a revolver in his hand, aiming at the man in front of him.

Caspars looked at the man opposite him. He had a very ordinary face, neither handsome nor ugly, with a hairline that gradually moved back. It will disappear soon.

"How did you know about Ian?" Caspers' face was calm and his voice was low, like an old wolf, warning his coveted enemies.

Rawls, who changed his appearance again with the help of the "Variety Mask", stared at the revolver and said:

"We helped him leave Backlund, and he promised to do things for us in the future."

"He hasn't come back yet..."

Rawls interrupted Caspars' answer and pointed to the revolver in his hand:

"I know, I'm here to find the two Beyonders who escorted Ian out of Backlund."

After a long silence, a cold voice came from nearby.

"Bring him in."

Caspars put away his revolver, turned and limped and led Rawls into the bar, letting him into the room where the corpses were playing cards.

More than a dozen pale-faced corpses stared at Rawls, who had just entered the house, with a desire for flesh and blood in their eyes, as if his body would be torn apart in the next moment.

Maric, who was wearing a white shirt and a black vest, was also pale, and the maliciousness in his eyes seemed to be revealed. He raised his chin and did not hide his disgust for Rawls:

"Are you from MI9? What are you doing with me?"

"Can you call the shots?" Rawls glanced at the living corpses around him, "What about the 'wraith'?"

A figure suddenly appeared in the room. She was pale and delicate. She was wearing a small black soft hat and the same gothic court dress. It was Sharon the Wraith.

Sharon looked at Rawls, who looked very ordinary, and did not speak, waiting for Rawls to speak first.

"I have a task that I want to entrust to you, involving the 'Rose School'..."

Rawls paused for a while, and Maric had stood up slowly, his sharp black wolf claws had stretched out, and he let his **** tongue run across Bai Sensen's teeth like an ogre, and a cruel smile was drawn from the corner of his mouth. meaning.

"Although you and they are members of the same organization, but the ideas are not the same, right?" Rawls spread his hands and let his cane almost fall to the ground, but he was quickly grabbed by him, "The body is the cage of the mind, the world It is a cage of the body, madness is bound, and desire is suppressed, so I am willing to cooperate with you."

The cruelty on Maric's pale face disappeared, and he looked at Sharon, waiting for her to make a decision.

Sharon's body floating in the air slowly fell, her blue eyes looked at Rawls:

"What is the mission?"

The ability to "bribery" is really hard to detect! Even an Extraordinary like "Wraith" who has the ability to divination and anti-divination is difficult to detect. Or the blessing of the "Mist of Uncertainty" made my "bribery" more secretive and undetectable.

Rawls held the cane in both hands and said:

"The task I received is very simple, but I want to get more. The Marquis Edwin told me about your existence, and I want to use your strength to help me. As for the task is relatively simple, I can also complete it independently, but In order to gain more, we need your help."

The two of them were silent before the meeting, without asking about the identity of Marquis Edwin, Rawls shook his head and continued:

"Help me go to a family to find something, they are all ordinary people, I need you to complete this thing without disturbing them, the second half of the task is to use that thing and your identities to lead us together. enemy."

Even because of those words just now, Maric, who responded with a friendly attitude, asked questions:

"Why do we trust you?"

Rawls raised his eyebrows, knowing that most of the matter had been successful, he paused with his cane:

"First of all, we are very tolerant to you. Although you are not the same kind of people as those people, you are still from the Rose School, from the Highland Kingdom of the Southern Continent. Second, we helped you in the last incident, allowing you to successfully bring That little guy left Backlund and did not pursue the 'gas explosion' that you caused. Third, we are helping you to deal with your enemies, which will be helpful for your future survival in Backlund."

Rawls didn't promise anything, although he could offer to sign a contract with Sharon, but now MI9 is ​​stronger than Sharon and Maric both in terms of situation and strength. only arouses suspicion.

His "bribery" just made Sharon and Maric have a good impression of him, not the "intellect" of "The Fool"!

The pale, ghost-like Sharon said erratically:

"I can help you with the first part of the mission, but then we need to make a contract."

Rawls frowned, pretending to think about Sharon's proposal. After ten seconds, he gritted his teeth and agreed:

"Yes, but you must help me complete the first part first, so that I can speak to the Marquis Edwin."

"When does it begin?"

Sharon's words made Rawls almost stunned. He coughed and took out his pocket watch to check the time:

"Now."

Outside the candy store, Rawls pointed to the closed door, indicating that Sharon the Wraith could start.

And Sharon floated her feet off the ground and looked up at "29" on the door, her tone unwavering:

"Candy shop?"

"Yes, it has something to do with that little guy. This kind of thing is very common in the Beyonder world, isn't it?"

Rawls did not specify the task before, and Sharon did not ask, this is a tacit understanding of cooperation.

Sharon nodded. She was taught by the teacher and had enough knowledge about this kind of thing. Her body seemed to be moved by the wind, and she floated to the door of the candy store. Without seeing any specific movement, the door opened.

Rawls looked at the opened door. He originally thought that Sharon was going to use the speciality of "Wraith" to directly pass through the door and open it from the inside, but he never thought that it would be opened like this.

Does "criminal" also include sliding doors and picking locks? Isn't this Gou Sanjia's patent?

"Aren't you going to leave a trace like this?"

"No." With just one sentence left, Sharon floated in.

Rawls shook his head, looked at the open door and walked in.

Following the same procedure, Rawls entered another room besides the bedroom. This room is very large, and in the middle is a black cauldron that is almost the same as the copper pot that boils sugar downstairs. A strong and pungent smell fills the whole room.

On the side against the wall is a huge cabinet, which contains glass bottles with various colors of liquid, each glass bottle has a label, and a bottle of yellow liquid is taken out of it, only the cork is opened, rich lemon The smell comes out from the mouth of the bottle.

Something like an additive made from herbs?

Frowning, he put the glass bottle back in the cupboard. Rawls didn't take out the remaining glass bottle, but opened the door under the cupboard. In the dim candlelight, stacks of neat parchment paper appeared.

But after reading it carefully, Rawls found that the UU reading www.uukanshu.com was full of recipes for various candies, which had nothing to do with the manuscript of the difference machine.

After another search, there was still no gain. Just when Rawls was about to give up, Sharon's voice sounded.

"what are you looking for?"

Rawls looked at Sharon, who looked more like a ghost under the candlelight, sighed, took out a piece of parchment from the cupboard, and said in a low voice:

"It's similar to these things, but the recorded things are different. The content above should be about a machine."

Sharon reached out and took the parchment, closing her eyes as if reading the information on it. The "wraith" Extraordinary of the alien pathway can transform into a spiritual body, directly contact the spiritual world, and obtain information. Therefore, they are naturally capable of divination and anti-divination without any preparation.

After a while, Sharon opened her eyes, her blue eyes looked at Rawls, and her tone was flat:

"You didn't deceive me, I found what you said."

Leaving the candy store and looking at Sharon floating in front of him, Rawls finally figured out what she meant in the first half of the sentence. She knew from the divination that these things were related to the Rose School, so she said that Rawls did not deceive her. .

Do people who know divination speak like this? No wonder Huang Tao called a "diver" when he wanted to see him. This way of talking was really annoying.

However, Sharon should still have the factor of playing the "Resentful Soul", but the "Resentful Soul" does not speak, the "Puppet" does not speak, the "Silent Disciple" does not speak, and the "Ancient Evil" is a huge cloth Baby, if someone who is suitable for the "Provocateur" path chooses this path, it will be the greatest torture!
