Miss Tifa, the black-haired maid, had long thought that Shad would refuse, she shook her head:
"Don't worry, I'm not asking you to test medicine, isn't it more convenient to use rabbits or mice for experiments?"
She points to herself:
"Actually, I just want to find someone to compare the effects of these three potions on different people. I will drink it with you, and then compare the different answers we give."
"You want to drink too?"
"Of course, my own feelings are the most authentic. Besides, if I don't drink, detective, will you drink the unknown thing I brought out alone?"
But in fact, even if the maid, Miss Tifa Servitt, wants to drink, Shad still has feelings of resistance to this kind of behavior.
"I don't want to harm you on purpose. The lady introduced you to a job, and even made an appointment with you when to reveal the secret to you. You can suspect that I have other plans for you, but you can't doubt my love for the lady." Loyalty. You should understand that, detective."
What she said was sincere and quite reasonable, but Xia De still kept his mouth shut. Even though he agreed with what the other party said, and he didn't think there was any reason for the maid to suddenly turn around and murder him, but this matter still revealed strangeness.
"Detective, do you want extra pay?"
Seeing him like this, the maid asked again. The carriage bumped a bit, causing the two people in the car to move their bodies a little. They had already entered the city, and the familiar light of gas lamps and street lamps was very reassuring.
"Of course not, I promised to pay for the White Stone Crystal, so I won't ask for extra money... Are you sure your potion is really okay?"
"Swear by my allegiance to Lord Galina Cavendish."
Shad looked at her, and she looked at Shad. After a long time, Xia De said:
"Okay, but go to my place to test the medicine."
"no problem."
Xia De didn't want to find a familiar environment, but planned that if something happened and the maid really wanted to murder herself, she would immediately use the last time key to ask the [Creator of Innocence] for help to eradicate the poison of the potion, and then Use the newly acquired white stone crystal to teleport to distant places.
[But thinking about it in the worst direction, what if she kidnapped your cat to threaten you? Cats can't get close to the statue of the ancient god. 】
Xia De was stumped by this tricky question, he looked at the girl who tilted her head and looked out of the window, half of her face was illuminated by the quiet moonlight:
"Although I am not familiar with this world..."
He said with certainty in his heart:
"But I think that if I can't even judge the basic good and evil of the people I meet, then no matter how cautious I am, I will die miserably sooner or later."
[Do you believe that she belongs to the good side? 】
"No, I'm just sure that at least Galina and the maid are not the evil party."
The carriage broke into the night, and the sound of horseshoes did not disturb anyone in this silent night. It carried Xia De and the maid to the door of No. 6 Saint Teresa Square. After Xia De opened the door with the key, he invited the maid to test the medicine on the first floor.
Because it is the closest to the basement, and the door of the basement happens to have a lock hole, which meets the basic requirements for using the [Time Key].
There is no furniture or decorative walls on the first floor of Xia De's house, and the whole space is very empty. There wasn't even a gas lamp because he hadn't gotten around to going to the gas company to get them connected to the gas line on the ground floor.
Xia De made an excuse to go upstairs to get a candle, and took the cat down, and put the time key in his pocket. But after going downstairs, he didn't test the medicine immediately. Instead, he fed the cat first to delay the time. After all, the time key can only be used in the early morning of Thursday after Wednesday.
Miya hadn't seen Xia De for a day, and she was very dissatisfied when she was hugged by him. The fluffy cat wasn't hungry today, after all, Xia De left enough cat food before he left.
Now seeing that Xia De prepared supper for it, he didn't forget to look warily at the strange woman who came to the house, and then wagged his tail and reservedly went to eat. Miss Servet was also very interested in this small orange cat, but it was obviously unwise to try to get close to it when the cat was eating. Mia probably suspected that someone was going to **** its food.
The candles stood on the floor, and after about the same time, Shad and the maid Tifa sat face to face on both sides of the small table that was moved, and there were two empty teacups on the table.
"First and foremost."
The maid handed the wooden pipe to Shad, and Shad poured the liquid inside into the two cups respectively, and then he chose the one on the left. After watching the maid drink it up, Xia De also drank the potion.
"Meow?"
The cat stood on the window sill with its amber eyes staring, licking its paws and watching them drink the liquid curiously, hoping to get some for itself.
"What does it feel like?"
asked the maid.
"How much sugar did you put? Why is it so sweet?"
Xia De put down his cup and said vaguely.
"Any other feelings?"
The maid asked again, but Xia De shook his head in denial.
She shook her head regretfully, then pointed at Xia De's cup, and there was half a cup of clear water in it:
"Detective, please rinse your mouth."
Xia De still shook his head, the maid sized him up and said;
Xia De then picked up the cup.
Then came the second tube of potion, this time the potion had a distinct mint flavor. After drinking it, Shad and Tifa Servet's left eyes became blurred to a certain extent. The former lasted ten seconds, while the latter lasted seven seconds.
But after the duration expires, the field of vision fully returns to normal.
The last potion tasted the same as drinking water. This time the two had a different situation, the maid did not have any effect, and Xia De actually twitched uncontrollably, as if shivering from being frozen in the extremely cold weather, this process continued for the whole time It was over in half a minute.
But fortunately, apart from the convulsions, Xia De's body was not affected by other factors.
And after testing the three potions, the black-haired maid insisted that Xia De rinse his mouth to ensure that there was no liquid left, and then ended his visit to No. 6, Plaza Saint Teresa.
He stood on the stone steps at the door of his house, watching the light of the kerosene lamp hanging at the rear of the carriage go away, and then he closed the door neatly, under the curious eyes of the cat squatting on the table sniffing the cup, He walked quickly into the basement, and came back holding a paper bag in a short while.
Holding the paper bag in one hand, he closed the basement door with the other, and then took out the wooden key that was almost completely broken:
"May the World Tree bless me in infinite time."
After turning the key, there was a clicking sound, and behind the opened basement door was endless white mist. This will be the third entry into Fifth Age 1068, and it will be the last. In fact, Xia De's preparation for the last two wishes can be regarded as completely special and sufficient, but so far he has done his best and has his own ideas.
Time travel cannot carry extraordinary items, all he can rely on is his own knowledge and knowledge. And now, it's time to go.
"Mia, wait for me for three seconds. If everything goes well, I will take you to eat something delicious tomorrow."
"Meow?"
The cat watched Xia De walk into the white mist behind the door, and all the things he was holding fell to the floor.
Mia immediately became excited, jumped on the floor lightly, and ran to the paper bag in front of the door curiously. The cat wanted to know what kind of good things Shade had taken.
Xia De on the other side has already stepped into the white mist. He was a little disappointed to see that the paper bag containing the potion and materials was no longer in his hand, and her voice came from next to his ear:
[Outlander, you have stepped into the corridor of time. 】
[Message from the ancient **** "Father of the Infinite Tree":]
[Fifth Epoch 1068 autumn, Southern Continent, Hope Town. 】
[Event: The old **** "Innocent Creator" fell. 】
[Duration 10 minutes (3/3). 】
[You have obtained additional information. 】
[The figure of the father of the infinite tree continues to watch you. 】
[The ancient **** of time will give you a test that will continue. 】
[Before the fall of the "pure creator" of the old god, witness his last wish. 】
[The ancient **** of time will give you rewards: Thaumaturgy - Blade of Chaos Time, Miracle Spirit Rune - Echo. 】
Time was running out, and after confirming that there was no additional information, he immediately took a step forward in the white mist.
The white mist dissipated, and he returned to the old town where the toy store was located.
When I came here for the first time, it was daytime in Hope Town, and when I came for the second time, it was night in Hope Town. Third and perhaps last visit, here at dusk.
The tragic sunset spread from the sky far away to the sky farther away, and the dim light seemed to imply the end of everything. This strange scene made Xia De, who thought he was prepared, startled for a moment.
There were only a few townspeople on the dilapidated streets at dusk, passing through the low and dilapidated buildings. Some people noticed Xia De again, but before they approached, Xia De had already opened the door and entered the magnificent toy store in front of him.
The smell of candy in the air shocked him, and the bright light and the dazzling array of toy shelves made Xia De walk out of the scene under the sunset just now.
The saint in the ridiculous clown hat was still standing behind the counter, looking down at a book when Shade opened the door and walked in.
Hearing the sound of pushing the door, he raised his head and looked at him with a smile. This was the last time the two met in this era.
"Oh~www.mtlnovel.com~ Look who's here?"
The saint laughed and wanted to clap his hands to summon the three children, but Xia De stopped him:
"Sorry, but before the last two wishes, I would like to ask for your help."
"Then what do you want?"
The young man said with a smile, his appearance was young, but somehow Xia De felt that an old man was talking:
"Can you see what I just drank?"
He pointed to himself, and the maid thought of him keeping liquid in his mouth, but never imagined that he could ask God directly for answers.
Probably, no one would ask such ridiculous questions when the gods are willing to fulfill their wishes.
"It's very simple, you first drink a glass of water with added sugar, oh, that high-grade white sugar is really good."
That's why it was so sweet that Xia De almost vomited it out, but it was just water and sugar.
