Chapter 71 Clues

In the abandoned tunnel, Lumian opened his eyes.

He fell asleep uncontrollably just now, but he also regained some spirituality. At least his head no longer throbbed, and the burning sensation in his blood vessels, internal organs and skin had completely subsided.

What caught Lumian's eyes was pure darkness without any light. After he fumbled to light the lantern that he had extinguished on his own initiative, he saw Jenna dressed as a female mercenary sitting diagonally opposite, leaning against the rock wall of the tunnel, lowering her head.

Looking at the dark green canvas backpack and five ritual furs placed in front of him.

Feeling the corresponding movement, Jenna raised her head and cast her gaze on Lumian.

She examined it for a few seconds and said in a teasing tone: "Finally it's not so annoying anymore."

The negative effects of the "respectable" brooch are over? Lumian instinctively breathed a sigh of relief.

A smile appeared on Jian Na's lips. She stood up with the dark green canvas backpack in front of her and said to Lumian:

"I wanted to take advantage of your sleep several times to beat you up and draw some shit on your face, but I finally controlled myself."

"Thank you." Lumian said his thanks neither too sincerely nor too sincerely.

After Jian Na put on the backpack, she bent down and picked up five ritual furs, and said with a leisurely smile: "You're welcome."

After saying that, she walked towards the exit of the abandoned tunnel and left a message with an obvious smile: "Who told me to be your friend?"

You're laughing at me again... Lumian muttered, picked up the lantern, and followed.

Inside Apartment 601, No. 3 Baiyi Street.

Franka, who had changed into her daily attire, wearing a women's shirt and light-colored breeches, finally waited for Lumian and Jenna to return.

She looked at Lumian's charred upper body and said with a smile: "Jiana didn't take the opportunity to stab you a few times?

The negative effect of "respectability" is not as strong as I thought."

Without waiting for Lumian to respond, Jenna said calmly:

"For the first two quarters of an hour, I really couldn't help it, so I had to hide outside the tunnel where he was resting, and check every few minutes to see if there was any danger emerging from the ground, the roof of the cave, or from behind the rock wall. But even then, I still wanted to

Blow up that tunnel and bury him alive in it."

That's not what you said just now... Lumian couldn't help but glance at Jenna.

For a moment, he couldn't tell whether what the "instigator" said in the abandoned tunnel was true or what he was saying now.

Franka laughed and gave Jenna a thumbs up: "I'm embarrassing you.

"You could actually imagine that the attack would come from underground, from the roof of the cave, or from behind the rock wall. You didn't let down your guard just because it was a semi-enclosed, deserted tunnel."

Jian Na's eyebrows stretched, and she couldn't hide her proud smile and said:

"Don't you often tell me horror stories? Many of them include scenes where a hand suddenly reaches out from the soil and grabs someone's ankle, or a bloody head hangs from the ceiling, or a person grows out of the wall.

Hug the protagonist in one fell swoop."

One of the entertainment items every night is to tell Jenna scary stories? Lumian glanced at Franka and always felt that her purpose was not that simple. "Look, it is very useful to listen to more stories!" Franka

A happy look on his face.

She turned to look at Lumian: "Do I need to find a doctor?"

The burn looks pretty serious.

"No, for Arsonist, this is just a minor injury." Lumian didn't mention that he would be intact at six o'clock tomorrow morning. "If that doesn't work, I can still go find Rat."

The "cultivator" he raised has not yet become a Sequence 8 "physician" and is currently of no use.

Franka saw that Lumian showed no pain at all, so she no longer worried. She mentioned the dark green canvas backpack that Jenna had left on the single sofa, put it on the coffee table, and carefully counted the harvest.

Lumian smoothly pushed the cups, plates, newspapers and magazines on the coffee table to one side, leaving enough space.

He glanced at it and discovered that the name of the magazine was "Women".

This is a very popular weekly among the middle-class women in Intis. It tells about the latest fashion, lifestyle and beauty techniques of Trier. The "Lady's Aesthetic" magazine of the Kingdom of Loen is an imitation of it.

Lumian raised his head with a smile and looked at Franka, as if to say: "Hey, you still read this kind of magazine?"

Franca curled her lips and puffed out her chest in response: "Let me see what happened to the "Women" journal?"

After a silent and brief exchange, Franka opened the backpack and took out the banknotes, coins and gold bars inside.

"About 60,000 ferkin." After a moment, she came to a conclusion.

In just over two months, the priest used up Aurore's 40,000 Felkin savings, and this was without buying extraordinary characteristics or acquiring magical items... The more Lumian thought about it, the angrier he became.

The priest's lack of magical items may not be because he doesn't want to buy them, but because he can't get suitable ones in a short time. On the one hand, he is a follower of the evil god and must be cautious enough. The number of occult gatherings he attends must be very few, and the things he can encounter must be

On the other hand, he has contracted too many creatures and has a lot of negative conditions on him. Many magical items are not only not helpful to him, but are greatly weakened and dangerous to some extent, and some are even harmful to him.

Let him die suddenly.

Franka thought about it and said to Lumian and Jenna:

"All the gold will go to Charles, and I will take half of the rest. Jenna, you and Anthony will share the remaining half. How will you divide it? Wait for Anthony to come back and see what he gains before deciding. How about it?"

In this way, Lumian can get almost 30,000 ferkin, and Franka can get 15,000.

"I have no problem." Jenna said a little worriedly, "Anthony hasn't come back yet. Damn it, will something happen to him?"

"If it were anyone else, I would have thought that he might have suffered an accident, but Anthony is a "psychiatrist" and is best at reading people's minds. He is unlikely to fall into traps. Moreover, he is an experienced intelligence dealer and has no tracking skills.

Worse than me and Charles." Franka said a lot, then smiled, "The most important thing is, while I was waiting for you, I used "Magic Mirror Divination" to confirm that he is not in danger at the moment. Haha,

It's actually a good thing that he hasn't come back for so long, it means that he didn't lose track of his target, and maybe he has already achieved something."

"Can't you just say that you confirmed it through divination? You have to talk a lot." Lumian replied funny.

Franca clicked her tongue and said with a smile: "You don't understand. This means you can't rely on divination."

She then pointed to the five ritual furs: "These things are the materials for the "Art of Making Animals"? Can we use them?"

"Currently, I am the only one who can use it." Lumian shook his head, "And I haven't mastered the spell preset by Guillaume Benet yet."

Franka withdrew her gaze a little disappointed and sat down in her easy chair.

After a few seconds, she smiled slightly and said:

"By the way, I have already told the authorities through my own channels that there is a wanted criminal hiding at No. 50 Vincent Street. Once they confirm Guillaume Benet's death, we should still be able to get a sum of two

The bounty of around 10,000 yuan, um, should it be distributed according to the plan just now?”

This matter cannot be left to Jenna, as that would make the "Purifier" suspect that there is Lumian Lee hidden among the people she comes into contact with.

The most suitable candidate is actually intelligence dealer Anthony Reed, but he has never come back. Franka is worried that if the delay continues, the police will discover the problem at 50 Vincent Street first, and then she will not be able to get the reward.

.

After both Lumian and Jenna said there was no problem, the three of them waited for Anthony Reid.

After a few minutes, Lumian, who had already sat down, leaned forward slightly, looked at Franka and Jenna, and said in a deep voice:

"There is something I would like to ask you to help me analyze."

Regarding Aurore's issue, he felt that he was easily irrational and his judgment was affected by his emotions, so he wanted to hear what Franka and Jenna would say.

One of them has a companionship with Aurore, but the depth of their relationship is obviously not as deep as that of Lumian and Aurore, and the other is a completely unrelated person who just happens to give his views from a different perspective.

"Okay." Franka and Jenna replied at the same time.

They each adjusted their posture to look professional.

Lumian talked about the events of Kordu Village for the first time. Although it was not so detailed and concealed the dream-related and fateful angels, he still described the general process of the disaster, including Aurore's abnormalities.

Behavior and the statements of Louis Lund, Madame Poualis, Guillaume Bennet and others.

There was part of this that Franka knew that Jenna still didn't know, which made the actor-apprentice of the old pigeonhole and the underground singer of the Breeze Dance Hall almost wonder if this was still the world she knew.

She originally thought that "the art of making animals" was scary and weird enough, but who knew there were other things like "men giving birth to babies" and "babies climbing on walls like birds".

It's crazy, it's really crazy!

Franca was more concerned about the changes in Lumian's sister Aurore. She had always wanted to know how a "Muggle" died in Kordu Village, but she was afraid of irritating Lumian and did not dare to ask in detail.

When she discovered that the source of the problem was Aurore, she was in disbelief. This was completely inconsistent with her impression of a "Muggle".

When Lumian told the story that Aurore said "I am not Aurore Lee" in front of Guillaume Bennet, Franka was startled for a moment, and her expression immediately became extremely serious.

Not long after, Lumian talked about the last sacrifice, where Aurore suddenly woke up and pushed him out of the altar, allowing him to survive.

At this moment, Franka suddenly stood up.

Under the confused looks of Lumian and Jenna, she rushed into her bedroom and took out a stack of papers.

It was Aurore's witchcraft notes that Lumian transcribed, thinking there might be a problem, and hoping Franca could help take a look at them.

Franka put the papers on the coffee table, pulled out one of them, and said with a frightened and solemn expression:

"I kind of know what's wrong."

Lumian looked in shock and saw that what was copied on that page of notes was the "wizard" spell "Evocation of Souls".

It is an auxiliary spell that can help targets whose souls and bodies are separated or whose astral bodies are lost in the spiritual world to find their own souls.

Lumian has studied its spell structure before and found no problems. It does not involve evil gods at all.

At this time, after hearing Franka's words, he scanned the spell again and fixed his eyes on the last date and origin: "April 1, 1357, purchased from the "April Fool's Day" party."
