The Modern Age of the Mysterious Chapter 193

"The Modern Age of the Mysterious (!

Jingle Bell!

Push the door and ring the brass bell

"Welcome!" A thick and high-pitched female voice sounded, and Wendy with orange hair greeted her.

"My name is Wendy...

"Just look at it, I'll help you introduce it!"

Sean nodded with a smile—outside Lewin Town, he was wearing the mask of "No Name" and his voice was concealed, so Wendy would definitely not recognize him.

Sean's eyes swept around without hesitation.

The young woman with glasses was dusting the shelves with a feather duster, and impatiently helped her glasses and sighed.

A woman with short black hair and red lips sat by the window, drinking coffee while looking out the window, rubbing her fingers lightly, as if she was thinking about something.

A gray-haired man wearing a workshop apron was busy on the workbench, and a gray and black cat jumped from the workbench to the ground.

Sean didn't look at the nautical clock model and the precise music box on the shelf, but walked straight to the cat.

He squatted beside the cat and picked it up gently.

After such careful observation, Sean was sure that the cat's left front leg was a delicate mechanical structure that could perform the same movements as a natural limb.

Sublime craftsmanship.

The look and feel of the brass prosthesis reminded Sean of Olivia.

"Oh," Wendy followed, "her name is Black Tea."

"I was seriously injured...

"So we gave her a prosthesis."

Sean nodded: "Good craftsmanship."

Finding that the new guests were a little different, the gray-haired man busy on the workbench and the glasses girl cleaning the shelves all looked at Sean.

Sean pondered for a while, put the cat down, and walked directly to the rebellious girl with glasses.

The other party frowned in surprise.

Before everyone could react, Sean took off his hat and nodded and said, "I am invited by the detective to come to assist the Queen."

The air in the store instantly froze.

With a click, the shutters of the shop were closed.

Sean heard the sound of a pistol opening the safety behind him.

The impatience and surprise in the young woman's eyes disappeared, her eyes were as cold as the sharp arrows that suddenly appeared between her fingers.

Across the street, Olivia was just about to start, when Sean stopped him with the crimson tie.

Sean raised his hands, let out a breath, and a pen with gold patterns on a black background floated in front of the queen.

The young woman took off her thick eyes, revealing a pair of eyes that were as cold as cats: "Arthur sent an interesting guy over.

"Tell me, how did you see it?"

The pistol and arrow were no longer pointed at him, and the reporter said: "Arthur told me that the people who accompanied the Queen included 'assistant', 'make-up artist' and 'gardener'.

"For some reason, I know people in the industry compare precision alchemy to floral arrangements."

The "Golden Rose under the Moon" in the poem refers to Olivia.

"So, Ms. Wendy should be the 'gardener'."

Sean looked at the dark-haired, red-lipped woman with a slightly nervous expression. "The lady sitting by the window..."

"Her makeup is exquisite, with traces of foundation and brow pencil on her fingers...

"She should be the 'makeup artist'.

"Two people with similar identities appeared in the same space, so I can be sure that the Queen is nearby."

The Queen exchanged glances with Wendy behind her, and then continued to stare at Sean.

Sean continued: "Then, it's a bold assumption."

"What assumption?"

"I learned from various sources that the officials of Ocean City and Daedalus have searched Ocean City since yesterday, but have not been able to find any trace of the Queen...

"Then it is almost certain that the Queen is not hiding somewhere...

"It's like a trick in magic—it's clearly standing in front of the investigators, but he can't be recognized."

The shop was dead silent - although he knew that Sean had no malicious intentions, his reasoning and assumptions made the Queen's team with far-reaching plans break into a cold sweat.

"How can I do this?" Sean held his chin and began to describe the series of thoughts that flashed just now.

"First of all, the position of the gardeners and makeup artists in the Queen's team should never have been known to the top of Daedalus.

"So, Wendy's shop was not suspected and was an ideal hiding place.

"Then it occurred to me that if I were the queen and had teammates who functioned as makeup artists, I would have set up a humble everyday identity a long time ago.

"It looks very ordinary, just a person who uses his spare time to work.

"Working here every day - the key is to let the neighbors and even the sheriff know...

"Knowing that such a lazy and rebellious clerk exists.

"Then, after the theft plan is completed, you don't need to hide it deliberately, you just need to continue to play this 'ordinary person'.

"Adding some acting skills, supplemented by the role of a makeup artist, and the evidence of the neighbors, even if the Daedalus staff came to the door and stared at your face to ask questions, they would never have imagined that this lazy female clerk is Her Majesty the Queen. ."

"She can hide for as long as she wants."

Alicia took off the triangular turban on her head and spread out her crisp golden short hair, which turned out to be quite shapely: "Fortunately, you are not my enemy..."

A hint of admiration flashed in the eyes of the "Queen".

"However, I have to correct you - it's not as long as you want to hide, it's just a matter of time before your identity is revealed."

"Sean Dickinson." Sean wasn't used to saying his real name for a long time.

"Queen" stretched out a little thin hand: "Alicia Pompeii."

While shaking hands, Sean's face froze for a moment.

When Hoffman said the name Alicia, Sean had some doubts in his heart.

After hearing Alicia's surname at this time, he was able to confirm——

Standing in front of him is the half-mad sage underground, the granddaughter of Edgar Pompeii.

It is also the only entrustment of the sages of the reading club when they are sober...

However, there were other people present at this time, in order to avoid leaks, Sean did not start this topic.

After Alicia showed her true face, she put on her glasses and head scarf again, and her temperament changed again.

"Arthur told me that although your quest level is not high, you are a 'chess player' type character...

"The current situation is not only dangerous, but also complicated, and I think I will need your strength."

In order to be able to cooperate better in the future, Alicia introduced her team members to Sean one by one.

"Gardener" Wendy, "Make-up artist" Jennifer...

And Wendy's husband, a man named Robert.

Robert, with gray hair, with a gentle smile on his face, looks like a modest and honest man.

He sat down on the swivel chair next to the workbench with his hands down, and pointed at Sean with a smile: "Rookie, I remember -- we met before."

"Have we met?" Sean frowned, unimpressed, "Where?"

Robert hugged his chest and smiled mysteriously: "Outside the town of Lewin. You were wearing the mask of an unknown person at that time, and you were scared by the one-winged angel to hide behind a tree by the roadside and dare not come out...

"Oh, and the trouble you caused last time at Barton Manor almost killed me."

Who is he?

Sean frowned~www.mtlnovel.com~ After thinking about it for a long time, he didn't remember such a person.

"I don't remember us..."

Before he could finish speaking, Sean's face froze.

"You..." Thinking of the interaction between the man and Wendy at that time, of the battle in Barton Manor...

Although they can't be connected at all, there is no other possibility.

"Are you 'Thug' Carlos?!" Sean boasted his first-class observation skills, but his eyes were still wide open at this time.

Robert nodded kindly with an uncontested smile.
