"Actually, I really want to know now what the outcome of this afternoon's action will be, but you also said that some things should not be observed directly, so you should leave a coin as a backup. Use another [Thunder God's Wrath], I want to know
What accident will happen in the afternoon?"
"It seems that you are convinced that there will be an accident this afternoon."
Luvia said as she tossed a coin again. The flipped coin once again cracked at the top, and disappeared into smoke before falling back to the table.
Little Mia lay on the table and quietly stretched out her paw towards the last coin, and then Shade held down the paw.
When Luvia opened her eyes, she saw Shade holding the cat in his arms. She sighed:
"Okay, I admit that your idea is right. There will indeed be an accident in the afternoon. Besides us, there are people who want to kill Thomas Bennet at the funeral.
Those people had a feud with Bennet because of the 'Time Relay Station', which involved a lot of complex time travel relationships. I can only see that there is actually a local being who knows about the 'Time Relay Station' and is committed to destroying it.
organization."
In other words, even if Shade didn't accidentally learn the news about "Impermanence and Time" from the memory of the demon swallowed by Dr. Schneider, and then get the invitation letter from the owner of the second-hand bookstore, in fact, if he continued to investigate locally, it would still be possible.
Opportunity to contact the transfer station.
Luvia tried her best to speak clearly:
"You can understand that those who signed a contract at the time transfer station often ended up missing or died unexpectedly. Their family and friends discovered the clues to the transfer station after years of investigation, and after nearly three years of investigation,
After a hundred years of development, a small ring warlock group has been formed specifically for time transfer stations.
They will investigate those who have received invitations, persuade and prevent them from using the transfer station. Using the invitations collected in their hands to conduct investigations, this small group of ring wizards learned about the time transfer station and Bennet about thirty years ago.
Related. The reason why it was thirty years ago is because around the time the Accordion Hotel was built, the scene at the Time Transfer Station also changed.
In short, the stories about these people are quite ups and downs, and they also want to take advantage of the opportunity in the afternoon to kill this generation of transit station owners in one fell swoop and completely end the history of the hotel that has caused countless tragedies."
"Will they succeed?"
"This is not within the scope of my divination this time, but I think it will definitely not be successful."
Luvia shook her head:
"Divination told me that these ring magicians prepared two sage-level relics specifically to fight Bennet. Because we need to understand both the background of these people and their methods, I didn't see these two sages.
What is a super relic?"
"It doesn't matter, that's enough. That's okay. Let's not do anything in the afternoon. I'll disguise myself and go to the funeral with Flora as a guest to see how those people want to deal with Thomas Banner.
Special, by the way, let’s also take a look at Bennett’s methods.
I will save those people, after all, they are also poor people."
Everyone had no objection to this plan. The only slight problem was that the news of Mrs. Bennet's death had not been made public, so Flora could not take Shad directly to the funeral.
But this small problem can be easily solved. Although the death news has not been made public and no obituary has been published in newspapers for the time being, relatives and friends of the Bennet family will definitely receive invitation letters.
The Cumming family, who is engaged to Mrs. Bennet's eldest daughter, must be among the invitees. It just so happens that Shade, or "John Watson", actually has a very good relationship with Baron Cumming. After all, he helped solve the problem.
The problem of the paradox bug.
So this Thursday morning, Shade went to the city again, but it was a pity that the Cumming family was no longer in Vista City. The old servant who looked after the house said that the Baron took his family with him last week.
Willondale will probably not come back until spring.
Shade actually agreed with the Baron's decision, but this also meant that Shade still had no reasonable excuse to attend the funeral:
"Well, after all, this is to help it collect debts."
So Shade went to Baron Fisher's mansion. The family had been released this morning, so Miss Fisher was at home.
The girl seemed to know that Shade would come. After Shade climbed through her bedroom window, she gave Shade the invitation letter:
"Father will probably be very busy in the past two days. After all, the matter of our family being taken away by the church still needs to be settled. So please go to the funeral on behalf of our family. You can be said to be my cousin or something like that."
Since he went to Fisher's house, Shade did not forget to look for the antique Elf arrow collected in their home. The search did not waste much time, because the arrow was in the Baron's study.
And with this invitation letter, there is no need for Flora to accompany him. But Luvia still insists on letting Shade bring a female companion, and she is a female companion with a southern appearance.
Miss Owl was the first one to be eliminated because she was too weak, and Vanessa was the second one to be eliminated because she was too short, even if she used illusion disguises. The greater the difference between the illusion disguise and reality, the higher the chance of being discovered.
big.
So among the witches, only Sylvia and Xiwei were left from the south, and it was finally decided that Xiwei would accompany Shade. After all, among all the twelfth-level witches, the first witch of light who entered the twelfth-level was still
is the strongest.
After lunch, the two of them got on the carriage and set off. As the carriage was driving, snowflakes started to fall in the sky, but it could only be regarded as light snow, which was completely incomparable with the snowflakes of the previous days.
Xiwe specially chose a long black dress to attend the funeral, while Shade wore the same black outfit as usual.
"It feels like it's been a long, long time since I went out alone with you."
The witch with wavy brown hair said this to Shade on the carriage. She was not wearing a veil yet, so her golden eyes could look directly at Shade. Of course Shade also knew this, although Xiwei was his second
The great witch he met, and their relationship progressed very quickly. However, due to various reasons, the progress of his relationship with Xiwei gradually lagged behind those of the witches he met later. The most typical one is Vanessa and Megan's relationship with him.
Sister Audrey.
"Sorry, I hope you don't think I'm ignoring you on purpose."
He expressed his apology sincerely:
"Since last summer, things have happened one after another. Xiwei, at the end of this year, have you ever considered going to my place?"
He sent out the invitation again and wondered whether the space at No. 6 Saint Teresa Square was big enough. However, the witches had said before that they were responsible for expanding the space in their home, so I guess this was not a big problem.
The witch smiled and asked:
"I guess I'm not the only girl who has received this invitation, right?"
"So you accept the invitation?"
"Knight, give me a kiss so that I am willing to accept the invitation, otherwise I will be considered an unreserved girl. The end of the year is a festival that the family celebrates together."
"We are on our way to attend a funeral. It doesn't matter. Anyway, the purpose of today is not to attend the funeral. Also, you know, you look particularly beautiful in black clothes."
She then smiled as she watched Shade come closer, and then put her arms around Shade's neck.
Sivi Avora was very satisfied with this kiss, because it really made her feel Shade's love and passion; but she was very dissatisfied with this kiss, after all, every time they reunited after being apart for a long time, she would feel Xia De's love and passion.
De's kissing became more and more skillful.
Of course she understood what this meant, so satisfaction and dissatisfaction were superimposed together, and it turned into gently biting Shade's lips after the kiss.
Blood seeped out immediately, and her red lips were stained a small piece by Shade's blood.
The Vista City Public Cemetery has a long history, and its predecessor is the Creekwood Township Cemetery. The history of the Creekwood Township Cemetery can be traced directly back to the founding of the town, which is better than any existing in the city today.
Every building must be ancient.
In the snowy afternoon, the atmosphere of the funeral seemed even more sad. The number of guests attending the funeral was less than Shade expected. Including him and Xi Wei who came on behalf of the Fisher family, the total number was less than thirty.
Compared with the local reputation of the Bennet family, this is already pitiful.
Mr. Bennet and all the children in the family were present at the funeral, including Linda Bennet, who had been eliminated from the family.
The three daughters of the Bennet family were all unmarried, so according to the strict funeral customs of this era, they all wore black funeral dresses and thick black veils that covered their entire faces to express their deep sorrow;
As a nun, Linda Bennett, because of her identity as a nun, has dedicated all of herself to God, so she still wears a black nun's uniform, without a veil, but only wears a black sash.
The funeral was held in a small chapel belonging to the Natural Church in the cemetery. Because Mrs. Bennet died suddenly and suddenly during the church's segregation review, the atmosphere at the funeral was particularly strange. Most of the guests did not say a word, even if they spoke to each other.
Eye contact will also try to avoid showing your inner thoughts.
The four daughters of the Bennet family and the boy Albert burst into tears from the beginning. Among them, the eldest daughter Jane Bennet even fainted several times when the priest read the eulogy.
Among the family, only Mr. Bennet spent the whole process of the funeral with a cold face. When he was required to speak in condolences for his wife during the funeral, he simply recalled the day of their wedding and the birth of their children -
