Crow's Paradise

Regarding the words of "Miss Karina", Sheriff Stabler didn't say much. He just glanced at the still red stove mouth, seemed to have thought of something, and responded:

"Miss Karina, it seems that this stove is indeed not suitable for use."

As he said that, he glanced in the direction of the backyard:

"With the current weather, the stove outside can't be used, but there are no other stoves in the town, only stoves."

As he spoke, he smiled and looked at the fireplace he saw in the living room:

"Of course, if you don't mind, baking some bread in the fireplace is also a feasible solution."

After the obvious joking behavior, the sheriff's face returned to its original serious state:

"To avoid danger, I think Miss Karina, you can choose Old Black's place for dinner today."

Finally, he added:

"Remember it, Miss Karina. If William and Little Mosenke come back, remember to inform me. The disappearance case is not easy to handle. So, good night, Miss Karina."

After saying that, he turned around and walked out of the kitchen.

"Of course, Mr. Sheriff, thank you for your concern. When William and Mosenke come back, I will let them find you."

After saying that, Yao Yan walked out of the kitchen and stood in front of the kitchen. He watched the Sheriff, his eyes fixed on the position of Mo Senke's room, walked for a while, then walked to the door, opened the door and closed it, and disappeared completely. In Yao Yan's sight.

There was no need for him to deliberately guide her. Obviously, the Sheriff here had some understanding of the fact that her brother Mo Senke had a gang background.

If it weren’t for the fact that this Mr. Sheriff had a wide range of interpersonal relationships and was able to learn about Mosenke’s gang background across the distance of several cities in this era, it would be that this Mr. Sheriff had a certain understanding of gangsters, and there were many gangsters in Mosenke. members’ habits.

Or... this flintlock pistol, which Mosenko had used in this town and was suspected by the Sheriff.

Which specific possibility Yao Yan could only put aside temporarily.

His eyes followed Karina's head, looking for scorch marks that might exist somewhere in the light of the lantern.

However, no relevant traces were found in the kitchen.

Gunshots and sharp weapons are ineffective?

Or is the effect small?

Or maybe it didn't leave on its own, but took something else with it?

Picking up the lantern, Yao Yan glanced at the fading red light of the stove, walked out of the kitchen, and began to look for the scorch marks throughout the house. He even left the house, holding an umbrella and searching in the backyard and in front of the house. Still not found.

Such a result forced Yao Yan to be more vigilant, but he had no other choice for the time being.

As for using your own abilities?

Again, if you haven't confirmed whether the ability can only be used once, you can't use it casually.

After taking some dry and hard black bread from the cupboard to satisfy his hunger, Yao Yan walked to the bedroom.

Although he didn't need sleep, this body, which obviously sent him a lot of tired signals, obviously couldn't hold on.

the next day.

Yao Yan's night of vigilance through the senses of the three crows yielded no results.

After washing up briefly with simple tools, he headed to the town.

There is obviously a lot of information in that room, but there is no other breakthrough, and it is impossible to understand what the information represents and what it points to. Going to the town to obtain other information is inevitable.

Holding an umbrella, in the light rain that had weakened a lot, and carrying Karina's figure, Yao Yan came to the town.

As the only carpenter in the town, William's house is some distance away from the main building in the town, but it's not too far, it's just not around the main road.

At least, the nearest location on the route that the sheriff patrolled at night was only about 200 meters away from William's home.

The town is not big, with only about thirty households in total.

That’s the population of a small village.

But it's not surprising that the atmosphere, architecture, and appearance of this town are obviously the "Europe" he was familiar with during his lifetime.

In Europe, there is no such thing as a "village".

The lowest is "small town".

This small town can be said to be just a village.

Standing on the main road, Yao Yan looked around.

Karina's shadow fell almost vertically at her feet.

This is obviously morning, not noon.

Yao Yan frowned slightly and looked elsewhere.

Just like Karina remembered, there was a small river in the middle of the town, dividing the town into two sides.

Thinking back to this, Yao Yan walked directly to the river.

The river is not too wide, only about three meters wide. There are several small bridges on it, two stone bridges and one wooden bridge.

The wooden bridge is obviously relatively new, and it is estimated that it was built less than a year ago.

Yao Yan's sight was roughly traced along the river to the source, and his sight was fixed on the distant mountain scenery blurred by the rain curtain.

The source of this river should be in the mountain, a mountain spring.

He was trying to determine the direction based on his geographical knowledge that he should have remembered correctly.

Much knowledge originates from the understanding and judgment of nature.

Such as orientation judgment.

If the world view of this world is still in the solar system and on the earth, then in the northern and southern hemispheres, due to the geostrophic deflection force, there will be different erosion effects on both sides of the river. Ideally, an east-west river will have different erosion effects on both sides of the river. If the geology on both sides of the Taiwan Strait is the same, over a long period of time, a curved trajectory will be formed to the south or north.

However.

The river in his sight was almost straight.

Both sides of the bank are made of soil and are not concrete embankments.

Thinking of this, he glanced at the shadow at Karina's feet again.

Still falling straight at her feet.

I checked several trees by the river, and none of them were particularly lush on one side. A large proportion of the leaves were facing a certain direction.

Raising his head, Yao Yan glanced at the sky.

Although it was just light rain, there were still thick clouds piled up in the sky, and the light source celestial body could not be seen.

The unfriendly answer made Yao Yan look back.

No longer staying at the river, his gaze turned to the other side of the river.

On the other side of the river, there are only a few scattered buildings, and the most eye-catching one is naturally the tall building that looks like a castle.

A nobleman's residence.

However, it is now deserted.

On the stone castle, there were faint patches of green spreading, which seemed to be vines or something like that.

Seeing such a scene, Yao Yan did not immediately head towards the castle. After letting the crow in the coat hide to avoid being discovered, he turned around and walked towards the bar.

Intelligence is necessary.

However, at this moment, a figure appeared in Yao Yan's field of vision. When he saw Karina, the man had a smile on his face and walked towards her quickly.
