Xing Ze didn't know exactly what kind of medicine was sold in Jezebeisi's gourd, but there must be something in it. Before getting the information he wanted, no matter what the woman said, he would not agree easily.
Jezebeth was not a fool. She could see what Xing Ze was thinking, so she could only endure the sweltering heat in the car and explain: "Not many people at the top of the association have really taken the magic world, and they are still very superficial about it.
in cognition.
"So, they don't know what you do in the magical world. At least not many people will really know your deeds. They prefer to delve into dazzling magic and weird spells than personal deeds. As you said
, they consider themselves noble and want to prove that Muggles can also learn magic."
"This is none of my business." Xing Ze said impatiently, "That's a conflict within your association."
"Don't say that. Of course this is related to you. It is precisely because of this that they despised you, leading to this series of temptations. If they knew who you were, I don't think there would be so much trouble at all."
Xing Ze sneered. Jezebeth was indeed a smart person. She had completely brushed off all the responsibilities in just a few words. With her pitiful expression, probably not many men would have the heart to blame her anymore.
"So they sent you to apologize?"
"You can think so, but to be precise, it's a formal invitation. They invite you to the association's secret gathering place to facilitate discussion of some things."
"What do you know about old Kimball? I heard this house was his before."
"Damn it, Xing Ze. Are you sure you want to talk about this here?"
Xing Ze smiled, looked at the woman and said, "I'm sure, if you think it's inappropriate, I can investigate it myself."
After being silent for a long time, Jezebeth complained helplessly: "You are really stubborn, okay. Old Kimball is also a member of our association, and it was he who recommended Thomas to join the association. As for his disappearance, to be honest
Yeah, I don't know much about it.
"You also know that as a woman, even though I am in the management of the association, I am also a messenger between the magical world and the real world. But these are all empty shells. The top management needs someone who can enter the magical world to gain knowledge, and I
It is the poor boy who was chosen."
"A bridge? The value of its existence is communication, and its other functions are minimal. It should not even have self-awareness." Xing Ze muttered in a low voice.
But in his heart, he thought like this: A Muggle spy sent to the magical world? No, judging from this woman's status, she would never be willing to be someone else's handle and tool. What is she hiding?
Jezebeth neither denied Xing Ze's words nor agreed with them. She just continued: "You have to understand that the disappearance of Xing Ze Thomas is not a coincidence. We believe that he suffered the same curse as old Kimball."
"Curse?" Xing Ze finally became interested.
"Yes, old Kimball has been researching documents and information related to the curse before he disappeared. However, his research was sealed by the association, and only high-level officials can do it."
Speaking of this, Jezebeth paused, spread her hands and said: "Unfortunately, as I said before, although I am a senior executive, I do not have the right to read these contents. However, I also have my own ways to obtain them.
Internal information.”
Xing Ze frowned slightly and asked: "So you know what curse Old Kimball is studying, right? I guess, in exchange, you want me to go to the association's meeting place?"
"You are very smart, Xing Ze, and that's why I like you. But I don't mind telling you Douglas's research now. As for the reason, I just want you to understand that I am not your enemy."
Jezebeth did not continue to tell the truth, but said directly: "The curse Douglas studied comes from Yig. I don't know if the name is correct. All in all, I can't pronounce that name at all."
As she spoke, Jezebeth took out a document from her wallet. After Xing Ze took it, she explained: "I asked someone to extract an excerpt from his manuscript, you can take a look."
After seeing the twisted and unreasonable words on the document, Xing Ze's brain was suddenly startled. The fatigue caused by the intense heat suddenly dissipated, but was replaced only by surprise and chills.
He had seen these ancient and strange symbols on the murals in the underground caves of Emberhead Village. Now he finally understood the general meaning of these symbols.
The recurring symbol on the mural is Yig. According to Douglas's research, Yig is the father of the snake people and an ancient god. He has cursed his people in the past. As for the reason,
Douglass did not write it.
The curse of the snake god. Xing Ze thought silently in his heart that this was the curse placed by Ige on his descendants, but why would Douglas want to study this? This makes no sense at all.
This incomplete document successfully attracted Xing Ze's attention, and he knew that if he wanted to get more content, he had to go to the meeting point of the Unsolved Mysteries Association.
Jezebes noticed Xing Ze's wavering. As a woman who has been wandering among various forces for a long time, it is necessary to be observant. She has to figure out people's hearts at all times. At this point, Jezebes is quite capable.
confidence.
"Even if you continue to stay here, there will be no consequences." She continued to advise, "Those things have already noticed your presence, and you have been exposed long ago."
Xing Ze actually understood that there would be no results if he continued to wait. The snake man would definitely set up spies on Reims Avenue, and foreign cars like his would soon be included in the suspicious list.
His original plan was to go directly into the house to take a look after his magic power recovered. Unexpectedly, the local Unsolved Mysteries Association would take the initiative to come to him, and the person who came was Jezebeth, this Xing Ze
A woman I really don’t want to see.
He folded the document and returned it, and asked in a deep voice: "How much do you know about the situation in that house? Stop lying, you can copy the document, and this is not difficult for you.
Bar."
"Snake-man." Jezebeth simply stated the information she had obtained, "I don't know what it is? But I have seen this species in some ancient documents. If you want to get more information,
Then find a way to get Thomas back, he is the most famous researcher of ancient civilization in our association."
Xing Ze sighed in his heart. He understood that everything pointed to Thomas Kimball. Is this a coincidence? Or was it a lie made up by the woman in front of him.
However, the insight he was once so proud of had no effect on this woman. Her expressions, movements, and even her tone of voice were all flawless, and there was no trace of her telling lies.
But because of this, Xing Ze felt something was wrong, because if a person deliberately wants to cover up a lie, he will behave unusually, and this is the case with this woman.
