Chapter 941: Handover of the cemetery

"Luvia, do you guess that the Prophet Association will acquire such a precious relic as [Wisdom Pyroxene]?"

After Dr. Schneider finished his introduction, Xia De asked Miss Fortune Teller again, who nodded after thinking about it:

"I suppose so, but what are you asking this question for?"

"I know what he wants to do."

The blond-haired Miss Writer said with a smile:

"Some time ago, Shad said that he wanted to buy the founding series of Rhodes cards of the Prophet Association, but was rejected. I think he is guessing whether he can exchange [Wisdom Stone] for one of them."

"But even if the Prophet Association agrees, it means that your identity is known by those fortune tellers."

Dr. Schneider said wisely, then hesitated, and asked Shad and Dorothy:

"Actually... I was attending a banquet at Lake View Manor this Tuesday. Did you hear any strange noises at around ten thirty?"

"Yes, after those two thunderstorms, the 'other me' captured the message conveyed by the relic—Trial: Looking for people who cannot be seen in the Tobesk area."

Shad nodded, and Dorothy joined in the conversation:

"Yes, I was also at Lakeview Manor at the time, and I heard it too."

"This should be related to the [Wiseman Pyroxene] mentioned by the academy. I don't believe that two different major events will occur in this area at once."

The doctor said, then took out a pen and paper, asked Shad and Dorothy to briefly describe what happened on Tuesday night, and then delivered it to the academy together with his letter on a page of poetry. The reply was quite fast this time, and an envelope was delivered within five minutes.

This is still a letter from the Student Management Office. The college confirmed the information provided by the three, so each of them received 1 credit and a reward of 3 pounds.

"It seems that the academy has known about this for a long time."

Dr. Schneider shared the windfall with Shad and Dorothy. Seeing that Priest Augustus was meditating, he asked:

"Priest, what are you thinking?"

"In this way, in the trial mentioned after the two thunderclaps in Lakeview Manor, the 'invisible person' who was asked to find, wouldn't it be the thief who committed a crime in the Tobesk area recently?"

The priest asked suspiciously, Luvia raised her eyebrows, and Xia De frowned while hugging the soft cat who was taking a nap:

"It is indeed possible...but like Priest Augustus just said, who can catch him?"

"I think there should be similar college rewards offered by the Serkses Higher Medical College and the Zarath College of Letters."

Dr. Schneider said, looked at the other four people, and gave a very cautious suggestion:

"Although the sage-level relics promised by the academy are indeed attractive, safety is the most important thing. For the so-called [Sage Pyroxene], since the academy can issue a bounty, other ring magician groups will also come to join in the fun. If any of us really If you have a clue, never act alone. The five members of our group can act together, and the one who finds the clue should pay the reward."

"no problem."

Xia De nodded, but he still didn't think the group of five could really catch the thief.

"Our main focus recently is the exam week at the end of the year. All five of us did well this summer, didn't we? Oh, gentlemen and ladies, I hope we can all pass the winter exams. I've already Can’t wait to have dinner with me after the exams like last year.”…

The doctor said with nostalgia that he had no close relatives, and his best friends were the four in front of him. After a busy year, having dinner together is what he looks forward to the most in a year.

Today's group study meeting, because there are too many things to talk about, so it didn't end until 4:30 in the afternoon.

Everyone still dispersed separately as before, and Dorothy followed Xia De. Of course, Xia De did not forget that he promised to help Old John to get the materials in the Apner Library as a third party tonight, so after dinner, he told Rezia, who had already exchanged bodies, that tonight he would Might be out for a few hours.

Although this would delay the date, Leiziya also knew that Xia De had business to do, so she let him go about her own business.

"I'll be back before ten o'clock, I hope the other party won't be late."

Shade was fiddling with a pen at the desk on which Dorothy's first draft of a novel was due to appear in the paper next week. In exchange for her appointment time, Rezia agreed to help proofread the manuscripts.

"Speaking of which, I have something good to show you."

Xia De said with a smile again, the cat lying on the window sill watched this scene boredly, and yawned, feeling that he would not be able to sleep next to the pillow again tonight.

"I've got a big light up thing that we can watch together at night."

This refers to the stone slab with silver horns, and it is rumored that touching it may give knowledge and spiritual runes.

The blonde girl showed a narrow smile:

"Xia De, isn't this reason too old-fashioned? Even if you don't say that, I won't leave tonight. But since you mentioned 'seeing' things, can I understand that you want to Want to be in the...study?"

She patted the desk lightly with her palm, and when she bit her lower lip and looked at Xia De, her face was slightly red, and her eyes seemed to be shining.

"There are really glowing flying things to show you."

he emphasized.

Lacey Lou

Dear, this chapter is not finished, there is another page ^0^ With an ambiguous smile, he put his arms around Xia De's neck:

"Yes, it's really a glowing item. Then I'll wait for you...remember to come back early."

The cat on the windowsill felt that maybe he could sleep in the bedroom tonight.

While Xia De left, Rezia helped him take care of Little Mia at home, and read and checked Professor Manning's letters, trying to find out the unusual details. Xia De kissed his beloved girl goodbye downstairs, and then broke into the long night of Tobesk in the fog.

The agreed meeting place between the Apna Library and the Priest of the Light is not in the city, but the city public cemetery in the east of the city. The city has been filled with fog in recent weeks, and even at night the fog still lingers.

When Xia De arrived at the cemetery outside the city, the cemetery was shrouded in fog. Like in a horror story, an unnameable ghoul might emerge at any time and attack the unfortunate citizens who visited the cemetery at night.

Shad was wrapped in a black warm robe, without a hood, but with a mask on his face. The agreed time to meet and pick up the goods was nine o'clock in the evening. Because he was worried about being late and started early, he arrived at the cemetery fifteen minutes before nine o'clock. …

When he saw the cemetery from a distance, he was already missing the warm and comfortable home, the soft and lovely cat and the energetic girl.

Using [Ragley's Jump] to pass through the fence, the boots stomped on the ground without leaving any traces. There is still light in the chapel in the distance, but the light in the gravekeeper's hut has been turned off. There is a faint burnt smell in the fog, and the people who sleep here sigh silently in this silent fog.

Although it looks like a scene where ghost stories can happen, there are no blind ghosts to disturb Shad tonight, and he waits patiently under a pine tree in the northeast corner of the cemetery.

At exactly nine o'clock in the evening, another ring magician in black robe came out of the fog in the cemetery. He was carrying a black suitcase in his hand with a small brass lock hanging on it. After seeing Xia De standing under the dead tree, almost blending into the night, he didn't get too close, but stopped on the path of the cemetery, and asked softly:

"What do curly-haired baboons like to eat?"

This is the code word agreed by Old John, in order to prevent the wrong person from being identified when handing over the information.

"Tooth decay."

Xia De replied in a deep voice.

"What would happen if you walked barefoot?"

The unfamiliar ring warlock asked again. Although he deliberately disguised his voice, Shad could tell that it was a man, and Tobesk's accent was very skilled. This is not an accent that can be mastered by learning and language talent. Only those who spend years in pubs, deal with the poor, and receive language influence from childhood can speak this way.

In the words of outsiders, this is an "old Tobesk man", and using this accent in other places can even show his identity. It appears that the Apner Library, although small, still has a permanent presence in Tobesk.

"Will be kicked in the **** by Lady Maria hard with a boot."

Shad said, and then he asked the third question. The joint riddle agreed between Old John and the Apner Library is very interesting:

"Is it the corruption and inefficiency of the civil servants in the city hall that make the citizens most desperate in Tobesk?"

"No."

The strange man shook his head firmly, gritted his teeth and replied:

"It's housing prices that are rising year by year."

This answer comes from the heart.

Xia De breathed a sigh of relief and took a step forward:

"Yes, sir, it's the house price, **** the house price. Now, please put the box under your feet and take five steps back."

The stranger put the suitcase down and took five steps back as Shad said. After the other party stopped, Xia De walked over and picked up the box.

There is a key in the lock of the box~www.mtlnovel.com~ Xia De opened the box and looked at the files inside. He needed to confirm whether the other party gave him a stack of waste newspapers. Of course, he only checked the first two pages symbolically, and then closed the suitcase:

"Very well, the transaction is closed sir. I suppose you don't need a receipt from me?"

He made a little joke, and the other party also laughed dryly. Both of them stared at each other and then backed away slowly. After the distance was enough, they turned and left:

"Really, making it so complicated, it seems like an underground transaction by an illegal organization."

Confirming that the other party had also left, Xia De complained softly in his heart while walking in the cemetery.

【Is not it? 】

While Xia De walked into the depths of the dense fog, "she" asked with a smile. Xia De did not answer, but looked at the suitcase in his hand:

"The question now is, do I have to take a peek before handing it over to Papa John?"

Dear, this chapter is over, I wish you a happy reading! ^0^
