Because it is an open government department, when Xia De walked into the yard, he was not stopped by anyone.
And when he looked up, he immediately saw a blue-gray short-haired kitten basking in the sun at the top of the piled up abandoned metal shelves on the east side of the yard.
"Are you so lucky today?"
The weather is still gloomy now, and even though it is almost eleven o'clock in the morning, there is not much sunshine. The cat squinted and lay on the metal plate raised by the shelf, and waited until Shad approached before opening his eyes and looking at him.
"Mia, absolutely don't bark."
Xia De gave a warning to Littlea, who was obviously trying to exude malice on his shoulders, and then lightly clapped his hands, signaling the cat on the high place to jump down. Under the condition that Mia didn't make trouble, Xia De's affinity for cats played a very significant role. Obviously the cat saw Xia De for the first time, but after seeing him clapping his hands, he still stood up energetically.
Staring at Xia De from a high place with wide eyes, he flicked his tail and jumped down along the stacked metal plates and shelves. He trotted to Xia De's feet, squinted his eyes and stretched his neck, rubbing his trousers.
Xia De cautiously squatted down and picked up the cat. Mia on the shoulder immediately let out a "purr purr" sound with her throat, which is the performance of the cat when it is trying to intimidate, but can't come out.
"It left after a while, let's go eat delicious food at noon."
Of course, Xia De would not forget to take care of his cat, stretched out his free left hand, and patted Mia's little head on his right shoulder in an awkward posture. It just stopped, but it still stared at the blue-gray short-haired cat that was a circle bigger than it, and the new cat also showed fear of Mia, as if Mia was something indescribable monster.
In short, the commission that I thought would be troublesome was actually resolved in one morning. When Shade returned the well-behaved blue-gray short-haired kitten to the old lady Midra, the old man almost cried.
Because Xia De completed the commission quickly and efficiently, when he finally paid the commission fee, the old man also gave an extra half a pound as a thank you fee. Declining the invitation from Mrs. Midella to have lunch together and discuss the skills of raising cats together, Xia De took the cat that seemed to be a little angry and had a big meal in the nearby block.
Sure enough, when the cat near Shade was sent back to its owner and she ate satisfactory food, Mia returned to her normal state. Perhaps for this cat, the "memory blanks" needed to remember delicious food completely cover the "memory blanks" for remembering troublesome things, and its life is truly carefree.
Avoiding the customary lunch break, that is, twelve o'clock to one half past one, Shade visited Dr. Schneider's psychological clinic in the eastern part of Tobesk at two o'clock.
He originally just wanted to ask whether the doctor would show up at the Yodel Palace tomorrow night, but he didn't expect that after the meeting, the doctor immediately gave surprising news:
"Xia De, you can never imagine what happened! I met another talented person who has just awakened!"
Because of the excessive surprise, Xia De even stood by the sofa and forgot to sit down, and the words in his mouth blurted out:
"Oh, doctor, did you use a relic that can overdraw your luck?"
As soon as the words came out of my mouth, I suddenly understood how the rest of the group felt when they heard that the doctor met him.
"No, no, I won't use that kind of relic, Shad, sit down and talk."
Dr. Schneider was obviously in a good mood, and greeted Xia De warmly:
"This matter is still related to you. A week ago, you entrusted me to find someone who can make a 'Mind Crystal'. The new talent is what I found when I was looking for the target!"
"The other party's dreams can make soul crystals?"
"Of course, talented people within 72 hours of awakening, who are mentally strong but unstable, are the best targets!"
The doctor smiled and said:
"If you are fine tonight, you can explore the other party's dream world with me. There are about 28 hours left in his awakening time, so you can't miss tonight."
"So doctor, do you want to invite the other party to join our group?"
Xia De actually cares more about this.
The doctor smiled and shook his head:
"Of course not, our team has already met the minimum number of people, and there is no shortage of experts who are good at a certain technology. When we have produced the alchemy materials you need at night, we will pass his information to the church through the black market and let the church handle it Bar."
The doctor sat behind the desk, arranging the follow-up matters very well. But after thinking about it, he added:
"Also, even if you don't show up, I won't invite this talented person to join us.
This time the situation is different from yours. When I met you back then, you had just woken up from blindness and ignorance because of your ring warlock talent, your eyes were terrified, but full of hope, and the follow-up investigation of your background was also very innocent. But this time the talent is different, he..."
The doctor sighed:
"How should I put it, he has a very serious psychological problem. The other party lives at No. 2 Black Corner Lane. He was caught in a fire at his workplace three years ago, and more than 60% of his body was burned. Even the cause of the fire, It seems to be related to him, but there is no evidence found in Ridgewig. Based on the above points, I think it is better for our team not to get involved with the other party."
Xia De inexplicably felt a little familiar, thought about it, and asked tentatively:
"Doctor, is the Black Corner Alley you're talking about the alley next to Lewis Street?"
"Oh? Have you been there?"
the doctor asked curiously.
Of course Shad had been there, and in order to get credits from the first grade to the second grade, he got three commissions from Iluna that might be related to the mysterious incident. The second commission is to help Ms. Swan investigate the mysterious person who peeps at her every noon.
And that mysterious person is a man who lives in the second door in Blackhorn Alley and has burn marks on his face and hands.
"I met him a month ago. I didn't expect him to become a talent."
Xia De told about that experience, the doctor frowned and thought for a while:
"That twenty-eight-year-old man was named Luther Kingwess. Three years ago, the fire where he worked burned down ten people. He was the only one who survived and received a large amount of compensation. Although it is not a crime to spy on a beautiful girl, but these two things are connected, and it always feels that the other party is really not a good person."
"Doctor, how did you find him?"
Xia De asked very interestedly, but he didn't expect Dr. Schneider to smile awkwardly, unwilling to say more:
"Luck, yes, pure luck."
Even without the power to detect lies, Shad could see that the doctor wasn't telling the truth. But everyone has their own secrets, so he doesn't care about the truth behind them either.
As for whether Luther Kingweiss is a good person, Xia De is not particularly concerned. But if he could find something in his dream, not only Shad, but also the doctor would not mind including his criminal record when reporting the new gifted person to the church.
After confirming the adventure plan for tonight, Shad heard another good news. The Doctor has no plans to attend the Yodel Palace dinner tomorrow night because there will be no invitations for him. After knowing this, Xia De felt at ease and made an appointment with the doctor to meet tonight.
Since Luther Kingweiss is already a talent, even if he has not officially become a first-ring warlock, the detection function of "another me" has already taken effect. Therefore, Shade and Dr. Schneider met at the corner of Lewis Street at half past eleven that night.
At this point in time, Mr. Kingwith should have fallen asleep, and the inactive "other me" in the unawakened state should not easily wake him up.
The two walked close to the low wall of the street, trying to avoid the gas lamps on the street. And although there was no rain, dark clouds still hung over the city, and the light of the moon and stars could hardly penetrate that layer of mist.
For the gifted person to dream, the doctor needs to touch each other's head directly, so the two must break into the house at No. 2, Noire Lane.
First, he took a look at the alley to make sure that there were no other pedestrians nearby. The doctor stood in the alley under the steps and continued to look around. Xia De stood in front of the door and put his fingers against the lock, and turned the lock slightly. headers open:
"Why do I always do this kind of activity with Dr. Schneider, breaking into other people's homes?"
He thought silently in his heart.
Open the door a gap~www.mtlnovel.com~ Xia De walked sideways into the darkness of the house. A few seconds later, his hand stretched out from the crack in the door, gesturing for safety, and the doctor walked up the steps backwards, looked left and right, and entered the house sideways through the crack in the door.
The door closed silently, as if nothing had happened. Although Luther King Weiss was just an ordinary person, the two were still cautious.
Compared to No. 6 Place Saint-Andrés, this house in Noire Lane is not that big. The foyer is very narrow, and there are many sundries such as shoe racks and cardboard boxes.
In this darkness, the shimmering light of Shade's fingers illuminated the two of them. The doctor handed Xia De shoe covers and gloves, but Xia De shook his head and took out the gloves and shoe covers he had prepared from his pocket.
Dr. Schneider showed a gratified expression. Since meeting Xia De two and a half months ago, the young detective has grown a lot.
Luther Kingweiss lived alone, and his bedroom was on the left-hand side of the second floor.
The two went upstairs lightly, and when they wanted to open the bedroom door, they found that the handle couldn't be turned.
"Who would lock the bedroom door when sleeping at home?"
Xia De thought in surprise, and opened the door with a spell again.
But the two of them didn't go in directly. The doctor carefully took out a copper box from his pocket, and when he opened it, there was actually a thick cigar that had burned one-fifth of it.
After lighting it, the doctor took a puff and put the cigar back in its case. He stretched his head towards the crack of the door and breathed the smoke in.
He obviously only took a puff, but the puff of smoke he exhaled was like a long dragon, and it took ten seconds to stop. During this period, Xia De was a little worried that Dr. Schneider would be hypoxic.
After puffing out the cigarette, Dr. Schneider carefully closed the door again. The two waited in the corridor for half a minute before finally pushing the door and entering the room.
