After the doctor fell asleep, he changed Mr. Jims' memory, making him think that he fell asleep after drinking too much. So when he woke up in the room at 4:30 in the afternoon, this gentleman had no idea what happened that afternoon.
But when he was apologizing for his gaffe, he was taken aback for a moment, and then showed surprise on his face:
"Doctor Schneider, the deadly sense of crisis that haunts me like a long snake winding around my body is gone!"
Probably because of being too excited, he even became polite in his words.
Mr. Jims strode to the window and flung it open in the narrow room. The choking smell of smog poured in from the window, and Dr. Shad and Schneider hurriedly backed away, but Mr. Jims took a deep breath instead, and then coughed violently:
"Ahem, I mean, ahem, oh, this is exciting. Doc, I feel like I'm all right, yes, I don't even feel dangerous standing at the window now."
"For God's sake, close the window."
Dr. Schneider said hurriedly.
"Doctor, how did you do it?"
Mr. Jims closed the window and asked in great surprise. Dr. Schneider thought for a moment:
"Before you fell asleep, you challenged your courage with Detective Hamilton's pistol. After you fell asleep under my assisted hypnosis, you must have recalled the feeling of dying again in your dream because of this incident."
"You may not remember clearly what happened in the dream, but the people in the dream will subconsciously release their psychological defenses, making you closer to death than in reality, which is why some people are scared to death in dreams."
Xia De said seriously, and Dr. Schneider nodded:
"Yes, this is my unique hypnotherapy. Although the experience in the dream has been forgotten, the subconscious mind still remembers that you have died and passed the crisis of life and death. So when you wake up, you feel completely normal gone."
"So will this completely make me lose my sense of crisis?"
Mr. Jims asked with some concern, so Dr. Schneider looked at Shad, who drew his gun neatly, and pointed the gun at Mr. Jims with both hands, and the latter immediately raised his hands as a sign of surrender:
"Oh my God. Detective, put the gun away, please."
"How do you feel now?"
Dr. Schneider took out his notebook with great interest and prepared to record.
"I'm pretty sure my perception of danger is still normal. The doctor, I promise, will pay you for your treatment, so please tell the detective to put the gun down. You're a good combination."
In short, although the adventure with Dr. Schneider this afternoon has encountered some accidents, it is generally not dangerous. In addition to receiving the 20 pounds from Princess Margaret, Mr. Jims also agreed to show his "family heirloom" for the two to appreciate.
Just as Xia De guessed, it was an ancient holy emblem. The shape of the holy emblem is similar to that of a tree, about half the size of a palm, and Mr. Jims put it very carefully in his suitcase.
The holy emblem is made of half metal and half wood, and after thousands of years, there are only some imperceptible scratches on the surface.
After getting permission, Shad reached out and touched the holy emblem, confirming that it was indeed a magical item. It's a pity that the gods have been gone for thousands of years, and without the maintenance of divine magic, this item is about to completely degenerate into a mortal thing. Although it is still considered a very valuable antique, without the protection of miracle elements, the holy emblem will be worn out by time again. It may not take a few hundred years, and even its current appearance will not be preserved.
Neither Dr. Xia De nor Dr. Schneider had any thoughts about Mr. James's family heirloom, so after paying the medical expenses, they said goodbye and left here. Dr. Schneider believed that Xia De also had credit for the patient's cure, so before leaving, he also distributed the generous treatment fee paid by Mr. Jims to Xia De 5 pounds.
Because of the huge income in the afternoon, Xia De took the cat to a restaurant outside to eat at night, and told Mia during the meal to thank Dr. Bill Schneider for the sumptuous dinner.
The cat, who was in a hurry to eat, didn't respond to Richard at all.
At eight o'clock in the evening, the lights were on in the study on the second floor of No. 6 Place Saint-Andrés, and Xia De, who had spent a fulfilling day, buried himself in his thesis in the study. At the intersection of Saint Teresa Square, illuminated by street lights, the royal carriages slowly approached, and the most expensive carriage stopped under the street lights.
The car door opened, and the big witch, Miss Sylvia, came down:
"Your Highness, it's fine for me to leave here. You can go back and rest. You will visit the Tobesk Art Museum tomorrow morning."
She said to her students, Princess Margaret nodded hesitantly:
"Master, is this where you said your student from Tobesk lived?"
"In this neighborhood, but I won't tell you the exact address. She wrote to me in the afternoon and invited me to examine her paper tonight."
Miss Sylvia said, wrapping the golden chain of the handbag around her hand:
"Go back quickly, remember to contact Serkeses to hand in the relics, we will strive to complete the ceremony of sublimating the fourth ring to the fifth ring before you leave Tobesk."
She waved her hand. Princess Margaret actually wanted to visit the "lucky girl" who was favored by Miss Sylvia, but judging from the teacher's attitude, she knew that she was not that lucky today.
"Teacher, will you come back tonight? I will ask the servant to prepare supper for you in advance."
"Maybe not coming back, we have a lot to talk about."
Miss Sylvia thought for a while and replied that besides the mathematics paper, Xia De also wanted to ask her about [Lager's Jump] to increase the range.
Princess Margaret showed an expression of reluctance, and stayed at the student's home, which meant that the other party was really regarded as a witch's apprentice. She nodded unwillingly. As the carriage drove away slowly, the princess thought of the Shade Hamilton she met this afternoon, who seemed to live in the house next to the square.
Marguerite Anjou, with a lightly made-up face, saw from the window of the carriage the door of the house at No. 6 Model Lake, Place Sainte-Terraine, in the mist. Seeing the gas lamp on the second floor emitting an ambiguous light in the night fog, he knew that the knight was at home. The warm yellow halo shows a peculiar optical effect in the fog, and the circles of halo make people want to yawn.
She imagined what Xia De, who lived alone at home, might be doing. It was not that she suspected that Xia De was Miss Sylvia's student, which was absolutely impossible, but she was thinking that she knew that Xia De was a very powerful ring magician. Does the journey down in Tobesk have a special meaning.
"Speaking of which, according to the information I received, Mr. Gray Eagle is also hiding in the block near Silver Cross Avenue, and he can see the house in the corner of the Yodel Palace. I don't know where he will be. What a coincidence, Reggie Hamilton, the teacher's apprentice, and Mr. Gray Eagle all live nearby, will there be more outrageous residents living in this neighborhood?"
The carriage drove the sad girl away, and her eyes were also taken away from the door of No. 6 Place Saint Teresa. After the dust raised by the carriage, Miss Sylvia quietly walked up to the steps in front of the No. 6 door of Place Saint-Derains, took off her wide-brimmed lady's hat covered with tulle, and looked up at the house in the dark night the whole picture.
The exterior wall of the house looks a little old, but there are a few traces of renovation. Rusty gas pipes and steam pipes are climbing on the walls~www.mtlnovel.com~ The rainy cornices of the high roofs are not clear in the dark night, and it seems that there are bats hanging on them, but if you look closely, they are just strange shadows . All the windows have curtains drawn, and there are a few potted flowers on the window sill of the living room on the second floor. Under the light of the gas lamp, the black shadows are cast on the curtains, which looks very lifelike.
"It turns out that this is where Shad lives. It's really interesting to visit the home of a man who lives alone and experience the famous haunted house in the urban legend of Tobesk. What would it look like?"
She bent her fingers and was about to knock on the door, but at this moment, Shad, who felt the hot badge on his chest, had already walked down the stairs.
"Good evening, Miss Sylvia."
Xia De opened the door and let the witch walk into the house. The young witch in the red dress nodded with a smile:
"Good evening, Shad, oh, good evening, sweet cat. It looks like fun here, do you mind if I stay late?"
The door closed behind the two of them, and the darkness shrouded the gate of No. 6 Place Saint-Andrés again, and the dim light of the gas lamp could not penetrate the smog to illuminate the metal number on the door.
The light in the crack of the door goes out, which means that the light in the hall is turned off. Then there was the sound of footsteps going up the stairs from inside the door, and their figures appeared in the window of the living room on the second floor, and then the two figures disappeared.
The big witch, Miss Emma Sylvia, officially started her first visit to the Knight's House.
