Extraordinary Puppet Master

"Classmate Carlin, I am very happy to go on this wonderful adventure with you."

After the group returned to the clinic along the secret passage from the underground closed square, eight members of the Ranger Club stayed in the clinic to search and sort out some of Keith's things and bring them back to St. Wayne College.

Of course, this also includes the trophies after Karin killed Gith.

These things will serve as clues to track down the cultists.

The four Carlins followed Salier's instructions and climbed through the window, and they did not encounter any accidents.

After returning to the safety of the street, Karin picked up the cloak he had thrown on the ground, patted it and put it on again.

And Holden took the initiative to say to him and Elena: "You two, just let me take you home."

Carlin then took out his pocket watch and looked at the time. It seemed that a lot of things had happened, but in fact, less than a quarter of an hour had passed.

At this time, he looked at Elena again, showed a weird smile and declined to Holden: "Thank you for your kindness, my home is less than a hundred meters away from here."

Karin didn't believe that this guy didn't know where he lived, and it was less than a hundred meters away. It was just a courtesy.

The other party just wanted to send Elena to St. Wayne College.

If the carriage moves slower, you can probably get more than ten minutes of alone time.

At this time, Carlin also reacted. He had previously wondered why he and Holden didn't know each other at school, and they even had different majors, but they could call him by his name right after they met.

And after understanding Holden's attitude towards Elena, he realized that this guy had definitely investigated his background.

The reason is simple, he is one of the few young men who are relatively close to Elena.

'Another poor kid trying to chase an ear, what a sad story'

Just as Carlin expected, before Holden started to feel happy, Elena also said tactfully: "Holden, thank you for your kindness, but I have another mission in Midtown tonight."

Then Carlin saw Holden's expression stiffen slightly, but he recovered immediately.

"That's it, then I won't bother you any more."

"Walk slowly."

After a cry, Karin and Elena watched the luxurious noble carriage gradually go away.

Karin glanced at the other party and asked, "Do you really have a mission today?"

Elena suddenly pinched his chin and gave him a provocative smile, "Yes, as a teacher, shouldn't caring about the health of students be a daily task?"

Snapped--

Karin helplessly slapped Miss One-Ear's paw away: "Are you going to stay at my house again tonight? My father just passed away. Is this appropriate?"

At this time, Elena suddenly looked at him with a serious face: "But why didn't you feel any sadness when you mentioned Mr. Westmin?

Although my perception is far inferior to that of Grandma Sarye, I can still judge a person's emotions simply through spirituality. "

Karin suddenly fell silent at this time, and his brain began to work rapidly, thinking of words to prevaricate the other party.

Elena had long discovered that Karin was abnormal.

His father had just died less than twelve hours ago, but when he mentioned the other person, he didn't feel the slightest bit of sadness from the other person. This was very abnormal.

But in the past six months, when he met Carlin, he couldn't help but feel worried about his father. So what happened?

In the afternoon, she realized something was wrong, but she just didn't say anything for the time being, and now she finally asked.

After being silent for a while, Carlin said directly: "I don't want to talk about it for the time being."

After saying that, she walked home alone, and Elena immediately took a step forward and wrapped her arms around Karin.

"Little Carlin, do you want to leave your teacher?"

As he spoke, Carlin's expression became helpless again.

At this point, Carlin saw from the corner of his eye that Miss One-Ear's expression turned dangerous and quickly changed the subject: "Okay, okay, just go to my house. You let me go first."

Elena then let go of Karin, and her expression became serious again.

"No matter what happened to your father, you intercepted Holden's carriage with a gun today just to save me. Do you know that this is a very dangerous thing? At that time, even if he killed you directly, he would not Some people will say what he did was wrong.”

Karin shook his head: "I didn't think too much at that time. I just wanted to go to the academy as quickly as possible to ask for help."

Elena said with a funny face: "You have been on the verge of death, and you never asked me about what happened between me and my father, right?"

Elena was very indifferent to the word father. She herself had a bad relationship with Kahn because of some things.

As for Carlin not feeling the slightest sadness about Westmin's death, it didn't matter to her. If others knew about it, they would definitely think that Carlin had a cold nature and was an immature wolf.

But Elena didn't think she would think so, and since Carlin risked his life just now to save her life, it would be enough to know that the other person was still the Carlin she knew.

Carlin shrugged after hearing this: "As long as you understand."

The two of them walked and chatted together, and soon arrived at Carlin's house.

After returning home, Miss One-Ear seemed to have returned to her own home. She threw her coat on the hanger and went straight to the second floor.

"I'm going to take a shower first and wait for you in the bedroom!"

Carlin looked at Miss One Ear who had already stepped onto the spiral staircase and shouted quickly: "The water hasn't been boiled yet!"

He couldn't see the other person in just one sentence, and only one sentence came from the second floor: "I wash it with cold water today. If you are in a hurry, you can wash it together!"

Carlin thought seriously about this, but finally shook his head.

It's a pity that the bathtub is too cold, the double bed is warmer.

Shaking his head, he took out the remaining unused packet of lime powder in his coat and threw it aside. After emptying the other bits and pieces in his pocket, he threw the coat on the hanger.

Then sitting down on the bench, Carlin found the piece of cardboard that Drake had sandwiched among the banknotes from a stack of gold pounds.

He held the cardboard in front of his eyes and looked at it. He only saw one sentence on the front and was stunned.

"My brother, congratulations on taking this step successfully and using potion No. 4 on the back of the paper."

Carlin felt a surge of confusion in his heart. Others might be confused when seeing this No. 4 potion, but he knew it.

This is a potion that Westmin has developed before, and its function is to make handwriting written with invisible ink visible.

For the series of invisible inks and explicit potions created by Westmin, Carlin just regarded it as a hobby of the other party, playing alchemy and studying the formulas of inks and potions.

He even participated in it himself, often doing alchemy experiments with Westmin, which greatly improved his hands-on skills.

The alchemy of this world is equivalent to the chemistry of his previous life. Some alchemical knowledge that does not involve spirituality or chemical reactions of ordinary substances can also be learned and practiced by ordinary people.

Many middle-class people have a set of alchemy equipment in their homes, which is considered fashionable.

Carlin always thought that Westmin prepared the potion just for his own entertainment, but he didn't expect that Drake actually knew about Potion No. 4 and called himself "my brother"!

'What the hell is going on? Is Drake Westmin's illegitimate son? ’
