The Little Cow Cafe is aimed at small workers in nearby neighborhoods. It provides breakfast, lunch and dinner at very affordable prices. Even in the busiest dinner market, each guest can enjoy a rich and generous set meal for only 1 Filkin.
Hotel waiters, restaurant busboys and cleaning ladies who earn a monthly income of 60 to 80 Firkin come here every two or three weeks either alone or with their families to enjoy and reward themselves.
When Lumian arrived, the busy breakfast time was over, there were almost no customers in the cafe, and the few waiters seemed lazy and not enthusiastic enough.
After ordering a cup of Macaire coffee brewed with crushed coffee beans, Lumian sat at the appointed seat and waited patiently for "Hela".
When the cuckoo wall clock in the cafe rang, a woman pushed open the door and entered.
She wears a very unique black dress, which has a mysterious charm and is close to the daily clothing of widows.

Seeing that the lady walked straight towards him after identifying the direction, Lumian sat up straight and looked at her carefully: her skin was very white, so white that it was unnatural, as if she hadn't been exposed to the sun for a long time; her hair was light blond and naturally disheveled.
The eyes are soft but lack luster; the eyes seem to be able to absorb all the light, so that they appear dark, and the original eye color cannot be seen; the facial features are quite good in isolation, but they failed to leave a clear impression on Lumian's appearance.
, which seems to be affected by the cold temperament and cannot form a real whole.
And this lady's cold temperament is not the kind of indifference that refuses people to approach, but a real coldness that seems to emanate from the bone marrow, making the surrounding temperature drop a little.
Before Lumian could observe any more details, the lady sat across from him and asked in a cold voice: "Muggle's younger brother?"
Although he had already guessed that this was Ms. "Hela", Lumian was still a little surprised.
He didn't expect that the other party would show up without any disguise, and he didn't seem to worry about being betrayed at all.
Lumian did not use the "Niser Face" and "Secret Peeping Glasses" at this time, but he usually wore a basic disguise, relying on his blond and black hair color and relatively simple makeup to match the wanted order.
The Lumian Lee maintains a certain distinction.
Maybe it was disguised, but I couldn't tell... Lumian smiled, nodded and said, "Ms. Hela'?"
The lady nodded slightly and acknowledged her identity.
"Would you like something to drink?" Lumian asked politely."
"Hela" was not polite at all: "One glass of absinthe, one glass of triple concentrate."
I drank hard liquor at ten o'clock in the morning, to compare with what I have... and I also ordered three times the concentration of lime coffee...
Was it because he didn't sleep last night? Or he drank too much and used the stimulation of absinthe to sober up? Lumian raised his right hand, snapped his fingers, and summoned the waiter.
After the light green liquid and the Lim espresso in a small cup were placed in front of "Hela", Lumian looked around to determine whether it was safe to communicate."
Gulu... "Hela" drank half a glass of absinthe in one gulp, and finally a little more color appeared on her unnaturally white face.
She put down the wine glass and pinched a ring on the middle finger of her right hand with her left thumb and index finger.

The ring was simple in shape, with a black, multi-faceted diamond set on a sterling silver base.
As "Hela" gently turned the ring, Lumian suddenly felt that the surroundings became quieter and the light seemed to dim.
"No one will hear our conversation now." "Hela"'s voice also had that cold feeling.
It's amazing... This performance is much better than Franca's. She is indeed one of the members of the "Curly Baboon Research Society" who has gone the furthest on the path to God... Lumian looked at "Hela"
Those dark eyes that seemed to be able to absorb all the light said calmly: 82
"I have gained something new during this time."
"Hela" said nothing and looked at Lumian quietly, waiting for him to continue his story.
"I caught Guillaume Benet." When Lumian said this, he didn't show off at all, just like the bartender at the Breeze Ballroom said that I had just mixed a cocktail.
"Hela" showed no emotion and just nodded, showing no interest in the fact that Lumian was able to capture Guillaume Benet and the details of how he was captured.
Using Guillaume Benet as the starting point, Lumian talked about "Muggles", that is, Aurore's changes and various anomalies, including the appearance of the lizard-like elf, Roche Louise.
The name S. Sanson, etc.
Finally, he took out a stack of paper:
"This is the witchcraft note my sister wrote three months before the belief in fate began to spread in Kordu Village. Look at what's wrong with it."
During the whole process, "Hela" listened very attentively, but rarely showed any mood swings or changes in expressions. She only said goodbye when she heard the lizard-like elf appear again and she said her name was Roche Louise Sanson.
He frowned.
"Hela" who remained silent looked through those witchcraft notes very quickly, as if she could grasp the corresponding occult knowledge and tell whether there was a problem just by browsing.
After five or six minutes, she pulled out a page of notes.
That is exactly the "soul evocation" recorded by Aurore.

Only members of the "Curly Baboon Research Society" and people with common experiences can see the problem at a glance... Lumian suddenly felt a little sad.
"Hela" picked up the absinthe again and poured all the dreamy green liquid into her mouth.
After drinking, she looked at Lumian and said
"What are your thoughts on the lizard-like elf?"
"I heard from people that in recent years there is a popular legend that the Kingdom of Heaven has exiled a group of elves, and some of them seem to have the appearance of transparent lizards." Lumian did not mention the symbolic meaning interpreted by Mr. "Poet" and used the official word
Investigator Lane's statement.
"Hela"'s face is rosier than before, and the cold feeling has subsided a little:
"I have a certain understanding of those elves and have studied some of them.
"They are not exiled from the Kingdom of Heaven, but more likely from an alien space. When certain folklore legends become closer and closer to certain things in an alien space, as time goes by, the latter have the opportunity to pass through the spirit world. Descend to the earth.
"This is just my personal speculation for the time being, and it has not been confirmed. I just want to tell you that I have done quite in-depth research on the elf phenomenon in recent years, and I have also seen elfs that look like transparent lizards, but that is different from The lizard-like transparent creature you described is different."
"Not a real elf?" Lumian was not too surprised by this statement. After all, Ryan and others were only guessing. Mr. "Poet" thought that it was closer to a representative of another force.
"Hela" did not explain too much and gave a positive answer with a nod: "I will pay attention to whether there are similar images in the legends of elves in other places."
After saying that, she turned the page of notes written with "Spiritualism" in half a circle and pushed it in front of Lumian: "Your sister's problem probably lies here."
Lumian expressed with his eyes that he was waiting for an explanation.
He also really wanted to see what "Hela" would say about this matter. She would not directly reveal the biggest secret of the "Curly Baboon Research Society" like Franka did.
"Hela" said with a cold voice: "I have had a lot of contact with your sister, and I know that she has always had some kind of psychological problem, which originated from her original family.

"There seems to be something wrong with her original family. Your sister had to stay away from them and hide in a border mountain village. Just like you gradually discovered that Kordu Village was becoming more and more abnormal and wanted to escape, so I suggested that you investigate in this direction. .
"And if the 'soul-calling technique' recorded on this page of notes is used on yourself, it is very likely that your sister's psychological problem will turn into a mental illness and a real split personality will occur."
"What do you mean to say that Roche Louise Sanson is my sister's split personality? The source of her fateful belief is her original family?" Lumian asked thoughtfully.
Without revealing the biggest secret of the Curly Baboon Research Society, this seems to be the most reasonable explanation, but Ms. "Magician" also believes that split personality is one of the reasons, or part of the reason.
"Hela" took a sip of triple-concentrated lime coffee:
"It may be a little more complicated than split personality, involving some weird occult phenomena. This needs to be investigated by you later."
Lumian nodded and asked in a deep voice: "Is there any problem with the 'April Fool's Day' member who sold 'Evocation' to my sister? Did he foresee that similar split personality would appear?"
"Hela" was silent for a few seconds before saying:
"There is a suspicion, but I am not sure. I will try to investigate, but it may take a long time. As you know, the organizational structure of the research association is very loose, and those people on April Fool's Day are not close to me. .”
"I understand." Lumian had heard similar words from Franka.
"Hela" glanced at him, thought for a while and said:
"Actually, the person most suitable to investigate this matter is you. Unfortunately, you don't have the corresponding conditions yet."
"Why do you say that?" Lumian asked in shock. "
Known in Kordu Village for his open mind and good pranks, he never thought that he could be responsible for investigating this matter. He thought that the most he could do was to assist Franka.
"Hela"'s tone is still cold:

"If you have the extraordinary ability to change your appearance from the flesh and blood level, you can completely become a 'Muggle' and participate in various gatherings of the research association as her.
"At that time, you can observe who among the members of 'April Fool's Day' is surprised that there is no problem with the 'Muggles' and behaves abnormally. You can also use yourself as bait to try to fish out the person who has a dark purpose.
"
I became Aurore and became a member of the Curly Baboon Research Society with the codename "Muggle"? Lumian never thought that this could happen.
He frowned and said: "Even if I have a transformation item, I can't play my sister, especially within your research association?"
He is not from another world. He has no idea about many things. How can he communicate with others?
