In the living room, Hermione picked up a palm-sized black crystal and looked at it for a while. If she placed it in the shadow on the ground, it would become invisible and disappear.
The black and red blood vessel structure in the heart still exists intact, occasionally exuding a trace of depravity and madness. If ordinary people come into contact, they will probably fuse together directly, and then go crazy and transform into a flesh and blood monster.
After sealing it away in the broken portable mirror, she finally breathed a sigh of relief. This was considered another step forward.
Kerns, who was sitting on the chair, saw that Hermione no longer needed the rune green wooden box for sealing, and casually placed it on the multi-drawer cabinet aside.
"This should be made of tree branches, right? The properties of the two are incompatible so it can be sealed. I'll take a piece."
"You can take the whole thing if you like, you're welcome."
"I just want the inner compartment."
Pulling out the wooden support placed underneath, it still retains the activity it was originally cut from, and is also a palm-sized piece.
If I had known earlier, I would have gone to hang out with people I knew in the past, but I would have quickly thought about who else has a longer family history.
She remained inexplicably silent and sighed, which made both Coens and Graf look on with deep doubts. Was it because they were dissatisfied? Or what?
"They should all be buried in history, or have already gone somewhere."
Talking to herself, she packed up her things and left here. Fantasy and reality are always opposite. It has been a long time.
It's a pity that I couldn't meet anyone from the Church of Knowledge or Ma Xi, otherwise I would have urged Teresa in various ways and asked her to hurry up. It would be best to find them all when I go back.
Graf also pushed Kerns out of here and out to the courtyard. It seemed that Hermione was about to leave. A quiet life was the mainstream here.
In the Neukölln district of the city of Fenneport, a small building area with wooden frames has been designated next to the dense forest of the national park.
There are many flowers and grass walls between it and the adjacent streets. The colorful flowers blooming on them are completely different from the coldness in the north.
The main body of the building has been built, and there are several workers outside standing on the wooden frame with sketches to draw reference lines for painting.
Lucy, wrapped in a fur cloak, has become accustomed to the plant scenery here, and even somewhat likes this country that is close to the earth.
The harvest is gratifying and life is precious. This praise to the Mother Earth feels more and more appropriate. Harvest and life are what ordinary people like me long for.
Avoiding the eyes of outsiders, I went to the small door at the back and knocked gently. I no longer felt the anxiety of coming here for the first time.
The tall woman who opened the door welcomed her in with a smile. Her face was very straight, but after looking at her for a long time, Lucy felt that she had changed her appearance. She always felt that there were a few things that were a bit awkward.
When I first met him, I was a little scared. Could it be a monster wearing a skin or something? Considering that he is a member of the same organization as Hermione, he was very friendly after getting along with him. Although he was surprised, he was able to maintain a conversation very well.
status.
"Zina, I found that there is indeed something wrong with Count Tony Heinz. He seems to have real connections with those people."
Xina was the name of the woman in front of her. Lucy only knew that she was the person in charge and missionary of the Church of the Fool that was about to open. After holding the token and praying devoutly, the other party trusted her and accepted her.
Of course, she was directly assigned her first task without ceremony, which was to investigate the anomalies of Count Tony Heinz.
Count Tony Heinz is a newly transferred upstart who has been responsible for the expansion of the Royal Chamber of Commerce and the management of money in the Southern Continent.
After his term expired, he did not continue to serve as the vice president in charge, but relied on the emperor's trust to return and become a cabinet adviser to the royal family.
She had seen this tall and straight middle-aged man at a diplomatic banquet. He always maintained an elegant smile when dealing with everyone, and he was meticulous in his military-style formal attire.
But my level is too low, and there seems to be no opportunity for long-term communication.
Zina also asked herself to observe more at ordinary times, or use the intelligence network on the other side to confirm whether Tony Heinz had some private transactions.
"Just remember not to go too deep, just pay attention to the surface. After all, you are not much different from ordinary people now."
Zina once again reminded her with concern. This was the first believer who came to the door after opening here. If something happened, there would be no way to explain it.
"I know my own strength. Tony Heinz mainly had contacts with some street gangsters in Mitte. I heard this by chance from Mrs. Shalott."
"They are members of the Ma Can Street mafia organization 'Tengbo Lang'."
Lucy told the information she had obtained. Mrs. Shalott was the wife of Ambassador Sehgal and one of the people in charge of her original organization here. As she was often with her, she would naturally overhear some 'secrets'.
"The people outside are really complicated. After so long of eradication, the gangs are still there. It would be better to simply drive them away."
A somewhat dissatisfied Zina unabashedly disliked some of the management staff, her tone full of sarcasm.
Lucy was already very subtle about these hidden rules. The person in front of her was very calm, but also very naive in some ways. Maybe it could complement her.
"Xina, it is normal for this kind of situation to exist in this social structure. After all, they can do some things that are inconvenient. Their existence also has their rationality and soil."
"Just don't let me meet you. Otherwise, if you hit me every time you meet me, you can't do anything to me. At worst, you'll be cured and beaten again."
Xina's current appearance is completely inconsistent with Lucy's positioning of a missionary. She should be more like a female knight who has seen rough roads.
Besides, Fenebaud didn't even deal with it, and people like her were not qualified to act on behalf of others. With a powerful organization behind Zina, she was naturally not afraid of retaliation, but those ordinary people were not.
"It's time for me to go. If I stay away for too long, I will be suspected. I will listen to the sermon with you next time."
"The Lord is in our hearts. As long as we have the Lord in our hearts, we can offer our devotion no matter where we are. Don't force yourself, I have other channels."
After Lucy made synchronized prayer gestures towards Zina, she pulled up her hat behind her and left through the back door.
They happened to be traveling near the national park and took this opportunity to meet Zina. There are benefits to being a small person, as they won't attract too much attention.
Xina watched Lucy disappear into the flower wall and then closed the back door. The decoration inside was a bit crude, and some of the interior decorations needed to be completed had to wait for the outside to be completed, but she finally took the first step.
Thinking of the task that I just had some clues about, I couldn't help but take a deep breath. What step has it reached? How should I deal with it?
