Chapter 142: respective origin

After that, Xia De did not hide anything about the private conversation between Professor Garcia and himself. The other four were also very happy that Xia De could obtain such a powerful thaumaturgy. As for his request to view the "Code of Ascension" in advance, I don't have much opinion. I just think that Xia De somewhat underestimated the difficulty of obtaining the spirit rune after obtaining the profane [Gluttony].

When talking about the potion at the end, Xia De just said that it has a special purpose, but didn't say how to use it.

The preparation of potions is a delicate work, and it takes a lot of time and money. That's why Miss Louisa suggested to Shade not to choose the College of Chemistry at first.

After asking the old priest, Priest Augustus, who was in a good mood, agreed to help configure the "price of growth". Those materials can be found on the local black market, but there are not many people who know how to configure potions. The old priest even only charged Shade for simple materials, and the amount of money added up was not much, so it didn't need to be considered by a detective who suddenly became "rich".

"The Price of Growth" needs some time to allocate, and Xia De wants to use it in the early hours of Thursday, so the priest promised to write to him to pick it up next Tuesday or Wednesday.

But the potion went well, but no one in the group had the [Time Key]. This relic is only useful to ring warlocks who possess the [Time] spirit rune. Dr. Schneider had obtained one a long time ago, but it hadn't been long ago. It has been handed over to the academy.

As for Xia De asking everyone if there is a way for ordinary people to gain power, all four of them shook their heads. If this kind of thing could be done easily, then ring warlocks wouldn't be so rare.

But Miss Louisa is worthy of being a writer, she provided Xia De with a brand new way of thinking.

The blonde girl looked at Xia De, and asked thoughtfully:

"What do you mean by power?"

Xia De suddenly realized this sentence, and even wanted to hug Miss Louisa to express his gratitude. But in order not to be hated and misunderstood by the female sorceresses in the same group, he did not do this.

Personal power does not necessarily refer to force alone, other powers are also power. Especially to fool children... especially to persuade children, even if the girl cannot be given mysterious power, there is a lot of knowledge in the heads of foreigners that is not convenient to realize.

"It's really helpful, plus the newspaper advertisement, Miss Louisa, I owe you too much. When I get this month's money, I will definitely invite you to the opera house in the city to see the most expensive opera. "

He made such a promise, but made Miss Louisa feel baffled:

"I'm honored... oh, the fairy tale you asked for."

She handed the pages wrapped in newspapers to Shad:

"Remember to return it to me next Saturday, don't damage the corner of the paper."

"no problem."

This time the favor owed is even more.

Everyone didn't have much to do in today's study session. After congratulating the doctor on his recovery, the other four left. Of course, Shad did not forget to confirm the itinerary of the doctor and the old priest on Sunday night. Fortunately, they didn't even know Duke Lucas.

Now Xia De can go to the poker game with peace of mind.

After leaving the clinic, Priest Augustus still walked with Shad. On Roentgen Boulevard, when passing by a group of Tobesk University students in school uniforms, Shad mentioned that he wanted to find an opportunity to thank Miss Louisa, and asked Priest Augustus if he knew about the blonde female writer. Hobby.

"She doesn't seem to have any hobbies... writing should count, and she also likes opera, and she seems to be very good at music."

The priest pondered, but his tone was uncertain.

Shad nodded, and whispered while looking at the Tobesk street scene in the afternoon. It's only four o'clock, and the summer days are long:

"It sounds like Miss Louisa's background is really good. These hobbies cannot be cultivated by poor people. I just found out not long ago that Miss Louisa's father is a professor at the local university in Tobesk."

"Yes, she has a good background. Calculated in this way, Louisa can be regarded as the only normal person among the five of us."

"What does it mean?"

Xia De asked curiously, so when the two walked through the intersection together, the old priest explained:

"Louisa is a native of Tobesk, from a wealthy upper-class family. Her father is a professor at the Tobesk Institute of Higher Education, and her mother is the youngest daughter of the late Viscount Cade. Louisa has two older brothers, one My younger sister, after successfully completing her education at a women’s college, moved out to live independently and earn a living by herself, and then she was met by a doctor when she awakened her talent. My parents are both here, and the relationship with my family is also very good. Compared with me, an old widower who has never been married in my life .”

point to yourself.

"Orphan Bill."

Point to the Schneider Psychological Clinic behind.

"Anat, whose parents died young and has no relatives."

Pointing in the direction where the fortune-teller who claimed to be going out of the city to handle errands left, Xia De knew that she actually wanted to "encounter" Miss Bayas.

"And you, the ex-tramp with no previous memory."

This time pointing at Shad.

"Dorothy Louisa is the happiest one among the five of us. It seems that happiness shouldn't be mixed with us unlucky guys."

The priest made a conclusion and took out his pipe from his arms, as if he wanted to take a puff.

Xia De nodded and listened to the news. It was the first time he had heard about the origins of other people in the same group.

But he was puzzled:

"But I always feel...Miss Louisa seems to have a story. She seems to be very familiar with the aristocratic things, and she has an indescribable, probably very unique temperament."

Xia De said hesitantly, and the two stopped and waited for the porters who were carrying a leather sofa to cross first.

The smile on Priest Augustus's face softened all the wrinkles. Holding a pipe in one hand, he patted Xia De on the shoulder with the other, and said cheerfully:

"I can't explain this, but Louisa's mother is just a daughter without inheritance rights, so she is not a nobleman, and she doesn't seem to have any connection with her grandfather. Are you interested in Louisa? That's right, they are both at this age young people."

The priest cracked a joke.

"No~www.mtlnovel.com~ That's not what it means, it's just... Forget it, we can't dig into other people's secrets too much."

Xia De shook his head and dropped the subject.

It was still early, and after learning that Shade had time today, Priest Augustus invited the detectives to go with him to the Church of Dawn to take away the house deed and title deed, and let the people of Church of Dawn inspect the house by the way to make sure that the closed area can be opened.

This matter was not troublesome at all, the two walked back to the Saint Teresa Square first, and Xia De went home to fetch the detective's suicide note and the death certificate prepared in advance by Priest Augustus. Then the priest led Xia De to the Dawn Church in Dawn Square. While greeting acquaintances, he walked through the magnificent main hall of the Dawn Church. The priest prayed for a while under the holy emblem before leading Xia De around the rich In the majestic corridor, in the office marked "Document Storage Room", a middle-aged priest was found drinking tea to kill the afternoon.

The title of the book is "The Explorer of the Eye of the Storm", which is a book describing the exploration of the old and new continents. Because it involves the life of sailors, there are many colored parts. It is very interesting that this kind of book appears in the church.
