Chapter 76 Expose little by little

Putting the paper ball on the table, Lucien took out the letter paper from the box and unfolded it. As expected, several lines of black words appeared on it:

"It seems that you have received our gift, Mr. Evans. Those three fingers are to warn you not to make stupid moves. Everything you do is under our control and observation. Our power exceeds yours."

Imagination is more legendary than the stories you heard from the bards in the tavern. Well, crush the 'ball of vision' and you will see what you want to see."

Lucien had already felt the magnetism contained in the dark black ball when he got it, and judged that it was recording scenes, so he crushed it without hesitation.

Black smoke filled the air, concentrated in front of Lucien, and gradually presented a dynamic black and white three-dimensional picture.

The people inside were Joel, Alyssa and Alvin. They were in a small wooden house, sitting around the only brown wooden table.

Alvin's eyes were half-closed and he nodded frequently, looking full of sleepiness, while Joel and Alyssa had sad faces, their wounds were tied with white cloth strips on their hands, and they could see outside through the small window of the wooden house.

The rich darkness and a few stars twinkling slightly in the sky, while the silver moon was obscured by the darkness and completely invisible.

This dynamic scene lasted for one minute.

The original lines of words on the letter paper disappeared, and new words appeared: "Mr. Evans, you have seen that they are still alive. In the future, whenever different weather and scenery appear at night, we will record a scene for you, so that

You can tell that each scene belongs to a different date by looking at the rain, the wind, the lightning, the incompleteness of the silver moon, and the number of stars. You see, our reputation has always been good."

"This reassures me a lot. By the way, if John comes back during this period, how will I tell him?"

Lucien nodded in reply. The small part of the starry sky he had just seen through the small window of the wooden house calmly appeared in his mind, and then compared it with the large number of astrological charts drawn in different seasons and places in the witch's magic notebook.

In order to determine which stars they are, and record the brightness and darkness of the stars with their magnitudes, we also record and measure the angle viewed from the wooden window, the initial position of the stars in the sky, and their one-minute-long scene.

Changes in position across the sky, etc.

Astrological magic is the type of magic that Lucien has studied most deeply!

Regarding the knowledge of astrology, based on the experience of listening to the exchanges between apprentices last time, Lucien has almost completely mastered the apprentice level, not to mention his own astronomical knowledge that is higher than ancient magic.

"I'm very satisfied that you can take the initiative to ask how to deal with it. It seems that Mr. Evans, you have gradually accepted your fate. If John comes back, just tell him directly and believe that he will not risk the lives of his father, mother, and brother.

Come and have an adventure. And, Mr. Evans, please be careful when you go to Lata Summer Palace tomorrow."

Lucien goes to Lata Summer Palace to discuss music with Princess Natasha at 11am every Tuesday and Thursday. If the princess needs it, she can summon Lucien at any time. Of course, the reward will be calculated separately.

Words appeared and disappeared one by one, and the letter paper finally remained unchanged. Lucien folded it, rewrapped the three broken fingers, and put them back in the box.

…………

Lucien, whose mind was filled with astrological charts, slowly walked on the way to the Musicians Association.

"I proposed it yesterday, and received the sight and fingers today. We can make a basic judgment that Uncle Joel's family is in a village, a small town, or a forest near Alto, or even some hidden place in Alto city.

"

With this judgment, many astrological charts in the witch's notebook can be discarded. Lucien quickly determined which stars were in the witch's notebook by comparing a large number of astrological charts drawn in Alto, as well as the preliminary calculated movement trajectories and speeds.

To determine the identity of the star, we then searched the star catalog to find various data on one of the known stars, and then calculated based on its relative position last night, combined with the angle of observation, etc., we got preliminary results:

"The wooden house is located to the west of Aalto, about twenty kilometers away, which is deep in the Black Forest of Mesel." A simple building near Aalto seen from the music library information

On the Fengzhao map, Lucien marked the location of the wooden house with a small error, "This range is within two hundred meters."

"I hope that when I see the scene in the future, I will still be in that wooden house, so that I can correct the data through natural scenery such as the silver moon." The star catalog on the earth is useless here, Lucien relied on the ancient star system

The star tables and astrological charts used by magicians must have some errors. To be completely accurate, they need to be corrected by other methods.

However, within a range of two hundred meters, it was relatively easy to find the cabin, so Lucien's mood became slightly excited and excited. The only problem was that he was not strong enough. The enemies who were just monitoring him were much more powerful than him.

, and since the "Silver Horn" dared to take several consecutive actions in Alto controlled by the church, their strength is definitely not weak, even if the powerful figures of the cult have other big things to do and are not responsible for guarding small people like Joel's family.

But Lucien estimated that there were at least enemies at the level of formal sacrifices.

"Every step is really difficult." Lucien suppressed his impatience and sighed softly in his heart.

Although after discovering the problem, Lucien responded to every step as best as he could while calmly, tried out a lot of things, and determined the location where Joel's family was imprisoned, but in the face of such a powerful

enemies, these are not enough!

…………

When we arrived at the association, two other girls who were not very familiar to Lucien were guarding the hall today. One of them stood up and bowed slightly: "Good morning, Mr. Evans. Mr. Hank told me that if you come, please go

Come to his office and he has already arranged your exclusive lounge."

Lucien originally wanted to find a quiet piano room, but it would be better to have his own lounge, so he climbed directly to the third floor to find Hank. Under his guidance, he found the exclusive room on the third floor.

lounge.

"Evans, this place will belong to you from now on, unless you die or join a music association in another country." Hank opened the door to the lounge and pointed to the ornately decorated room.

The concert association building is very large, and the atrium even contains a garden. In addition to offices, there are seventy or eighty such lounges on the third floor, and nearly half of the second floor is a lounge, plus Aalto musicians from the mainland.

Countries are very popular, and many people accept the invitation and leave after becoming famous, so almost half of the lounge is empty.

Thick dark yellow carpet, red wooden desk, wardrobe, coffee table, a set of sofas wrapped in beautiful dark blue cloth coats, exquisite statues, decorations and oil lamps, a half-open small room with a bed, a

A milky white piano, this is a lounge that belongs only to musicians. The Aalto Music Association has treated Lucien as a musician.

Lucien smiled politely and said, "Thank you, Mr. Hank, I'm very satisfied."

"This is what I should do. Evans, just call me Hank." Hank smiled and turned around and left.

Walking into the lounge, Lucien closed the door tightly and deliberately released the previously suppressed emotions, the grief and resentment after seeing the three severed fingers.

After walking around anxiously in the lounge for a few times, Lucien suddenly sat down in front of the milky white piano, pressed his hands heavily, and played the Symphony of Destiny, the only piece of music that he could play proficiently at the moment.

The exciting melody began to reverberate, and Lucien took advantage of the loud voice to suppress other voices and began to curse in a low voice:

"These bastards actually kidnapped Uncle Joel's family and asked me to get close to Her Highness the Princess."



Such words kept coming out of Lucien's mouth under the cover of music. Venting was not Lucien's purpose, but to test the other party's monitoring ability.

After he finished playing, Lucien stood up and took a long breath. Even if the other party really listened, it could be explained that he was venting his emotions to avoid problems in front of the princess tomorrow.

Returning to his home in the Aderjan District at noon, Lucien was pleased to find that the letter only said one sentence: "Appropriate use of music to vent is a good choice, Mr. Evans."

The other party may want to use this reminder to show that he can monitor everything about Lucien, so that Lucien will be afraid and dare not have other ideas.

But for Lucien, another important situation was explored!

…………

At two o'clock in the afternoon, Lucien arrived at Victor's house on time.

Although the butler Ace said nothing, his eyes were full of gratitude when he looked at Lucien. Having accompanied Victor for most of his life, he was very happy that Victor could successfully hold the concert.

When Renee, Colin, and David, the three civilian students who continued to study, saw Lucien coming in, they all stood up and said hello: "Good afternoon, Mr. Evans."

Although the news about Lucien has not yet spread from the musicians to the common people, the three of them already knew about Lucien through the previous conversation between Phyllis and Anne. The shock and unbelievable emotions made them face the identity

When Lucien's status had changed greatly, he subconsciously treated Lucien the same way he treated Victor, "I haven't seen you for just a month, has this world become so strange?"

Lott smiled and stood up and hugged Lucien: "Until now, I still can't believe that all of this is true."

Phyllis also came over and whispered in Lucien's ear: "Things are going very well. I should be able to give you the Moonlight Rose by this time tomorrow."

"Thank you, Phyllis." Lucien whispered his thanks sincerely.

Such a scene made Lott murmur in his heart: "When did they become so close? Are women inherently better than men when it comes to contacting men?"
