Mystery: Shadow of Order

In the process of Rawls looking for the manuscript of Hermothein, in addition to the manuscript of the third-generation difference engine, he also found many candy recipes in the candy shop called Hillier, which also came from the same person. The hand of the great scientist who is fond of candy, just didn't take it away, and the recipe of the candy is difficult to impress the great scientist,

In addition to this, there is only one design manuscript about the thermometer. (Chapter 223) The owner of the shop did not know who made it as one of the tools for making sugar.

When Dorothy stopped, Rawls said directly:

"Count Lovelace, what you're saying... I'm really incomprehensible. Maybe you can talk to Principal Mormont... After all, I'm just a barrister, so I don't know much about this..."

Dorothy glanced at him and frowned slightly, thinking that Rawls had been living in Loen, unlike Lumberg, Masi and other countries that were always influenced by the Church of Knowledge. An atmosphere of respect.

However, if you are unwilling to accept even knowledge, how can you become strong?

Just as she was about to say her goodbyes and was about to return to Ma Xi, she heard Rawls say:

"However, I've seen a... machine in a candy store before? No, 'tool' might be more appropriate to describe it. Because of the candy making process, it seems to ensure that the syrup is maintained within a certain temperature range... I don't know the specifics, but that tool measures the temperature by touching the syrup."

The thermometer was invented by Roselle and still uses mercury, but the toxic properties of mercury make it difficult for thermometers to measure the temperature of food. (Note 1)

"Candy store?" Dorothy's gray-blue eyes flashed doubts, "Are you sure, when did you see it?"

"Huh? Is there any question?" Seeing that she refused to answer, Rawls, who didn't understand what she meant, had to answer, "It was probably a few months ago..."

"Then there should be no problem..."

Seeing that Rawls was a little dazed, Dorothy lifted her chin and explained:

"I have seen the paper related to the tool you mentioned. It was published by a student of Backlund University of Technology and Technology. The patent has been registered, and it is also included in the exchange of content during this visit."

"Really? I rarely pay attention to these..."

Rawls squinted his eyes and didn't seem to care much about this... How could it be invented by a student? It was obviously designed by Hermoshine, but that student also saw that tool?

Dorothy took a deep look at the barrister in front of her. With her wisdom, she could naturally analyze that this matter was not that simple. Otherwise, how could a lawyer who never paid attention to this knowledge think that this tool is a new invention? At most, he will think that he has not seen it... Is there anything special about that student?

She squeezed out a smile on her slightly cold face, said goodbye, and turned into an electric light to leave.

Rawls also breathed a sigh of relief, sat on the edge of the bed, and asked Alysia in the corner:

"When did she arrive?"

"Shortly after you went to the banquet."

"I see."

……

In the middle of the night, Rawls opened his eyes and didn't notice Alysia's breath nearby. He lifted the quilt, got out of bed and walked to Klein's kingdom of God, and sat on the toilet.

He stretched out his right hand, held the air, and twisted it at will, the invisible spirituality spread and sealed the room.

After doing this, he sighed softly:

"Klein, since I'm calling you in your kingdom of God, it shouldn't matter if I call you in the middle of the night!"

He leaned forward, clasped his hands in a praying posture against his forehead, then paused for a while, and found that this posture was very suitable for his current state. He shook his head, his expression became serious, and whispered in Hermes:

"A fool who does not belong to this era, you are the mysterious ruler above the gray fog, and you are the king of yellow and black in charge of good luck."

He wanted to explain to Mr. Fool the secrets of the Backlund smog, and to clear his identity.

……

In a hotel in the Bridge District, in a shabby room, Klein lay on the bed and fell asleep.

He has neatly combed black hair, dark brown eyes, a rather thin face, sharp edges and corners, and no beard around his mouth.

On the worn chair beside the bed, there is also a pair of gold-rimmed glasses.

This is the appearance of Zhou Mingrui, who was magically modified according to the racial characteristics of the Northern Continent, and he looked vigorous and not fattened by society when he was in college.

His current name is Gehrman Sparrow, and he has a legal identity, a new identity he acquired through the circle of great detective Isengard Stanton. This identity belongs to a bounty hunter, a lunatic who wants to venture out to sea in order to get rich.

He originally wanted to obtain this identity certificate through Miss Sharon's circle, but then he thought that Sharon, as a member of the "Temperance" faction of the Rose School, had cooperated with MI9, and maybe she existed in her circle. Member of MI9.

In the smog incident, both MI9 and the royal family were involved. Before the situation can be determined, it is dangerous to buy an identity through Sharon. Likewise, Ian, who is a member of MI9's periphery, is the same.

Then only Emlyn and Isengard Stanton are left.

But Emlyn had already joined the Tarot Club, and Klein could not guarantee whether the identity of Gehrman Sparrow would be related to the Tarot Club, so he chose the great detective Isengard Stanton. .

This great detective has a very good relationship with "Heart of Machinery", but as a believer of the God of Knowledge and Wisdom, he has no contact with the Church of the Storm or MI9, so he is still credible to a certain extent.

At least, the divination results told him there was no danger.

Klein, who was sleeping, frowned, and a buzzing whisper suddenly sounded in his ear, causing him to sit up suddenly.

Is someone praying to me?

Is it a man's voice?

"sun"? "The Hanged Man"? "moon"?

Or "Emperor"?

He shook his head vigorously to clear his drowsy brain. The last thing he hoped was that this prayer came from Mr. "Emperor". He still has no way to judge how much MI9 and the royal family were involved in the smog incident, and whether the "emperor" was also involved.

If you participate, then maybe the royal family and MI9 will take this opportunity to find "The Fool". It's no exaggeration for an angel family with a history of thousands of years to have any magical sealed artifact; if you don't participate, I'm afraid you should ask The Fool's truth about the Great Smog.

Either way, it's trouble!

call

After Klein got out of bed and made sure the door was locked, he blocked the entire room with a wall of spirituality, then took four steps backwards, recited the incantation, and came to the top of the gray fog.

In the majestic palace like a giant's residence, his figure suddenly appeared on the top of the long bronze table, and a crimson star that was constantly shrinking and expanding was reflected in his eyes.

The thing that Klein least wanted to happen still happened. The crimson red represents Mr. "Emperor".

Helplessly rubbing his forehead, he took out the citrine pendant tied to his wrist and let it sag naturally. After it stabilized, he said quietly:

"It's dangerous to communicate with Mr. Emperor."

"It's dangerous to communicate with Mr. Emperor."

……

Although there are things on the "emperor" that interfere with divination, this does not mean that all divinations are ineffective. At least pendulum divination, which can only judge whether or not, can be successful.

Moreover, Klein believed that as long as he was promoted, the space above the gray fog could also rule out the divination on the "Emperor".

After seven times, he opened his eyes and saw the citrine pendant slowly turning in circles, making a counterclockwise movement.

"No danger."

Klein breathed a sigh of relief, raised his right hand, spread his spirituality, and touched the crimson star that symbolized the "Emperor".

With a bang, he saw a distorted and blurred picture, and saw Mr. "Emperor" in pajamas sitting on the toilet, clasping his hands against his buried forehead, praying in a deep voice.

Mr. "Emperor" is in the bathroom?

Is he restricted?

Because he often goes to the bathroom to do divination and respond to requests, Klein knows that the reason for doing this is to avoid being discovered. As Mr. "Emperor", he needs to go to the bathroom to pray in the middle of the night, then his current situation Probably not so.

Is it because he investigated something wrong?

Klein looked at the twisted bathroom beside the "Emperor" and couldn't help sighing. He found that Mr. "Emperor"'s bathroom was bigger than the room he was living in now.

As expected of Augustus!

……

"Dear Mr. Fool, under the guidance of you and your favored ones, the Great Smog was dispelled by His Excellency Radar Valentine, the Archbishop of the Church of the Storm. Although it also caused tens of thousands of deaths, without your blessing , this smog will take at least 100,000 lives.

Thank you again for your kindness! But I found out that this smog is not what the church announced to the public, it is just a massacre jointly created by the Witch Sect and the Aurora Society. MI9, and even some members of the royal family may be involved.

I originally guessed that this smog was a tragedy caused by the competition between the princes for the right of inheritance. Although His Majesty has four sons and two daughters, he did not bestow the title of "Prince White Rose" that the crown prince deserves to his children.

Because Prince Edsack was involved in the smog incident, although he had committed suicide, the three major churches still let His Majesty make a compromise, and decided to give the title of "Prince of the White Rose" to his eldest son, Covington, on his birthday. Your Highness.

But when I analyzed the whole incident, I found that this tragedy was not just about the right to the throne.

The occurrence of human trafficking in the southern continent, including Backlund, is not a recent occurrence. It has been a few years at least, and Prince Edsack is only twenty-two years old this year. , and not strong enough to do so.

Among the princes, the little prince David has just turned thirteen years old, so in the process of investigation, I gradually set the target on Prince Charles and Prince Covington, but because Prince Covington mainly win over the army Fang forces, Charlie's suspicion became the biggest.

During my investigation, I did find that His Royal Highness was involved in smuggling, and was related to Olavi Governor Auston Levitt and the deceased "Lieutenant General at Dusk" Bratov Ivan, but the latter was in my investigation. Not long after, he clashed with "Admiral of Blood" Senor and was killed by his own crew.

Meanwhile, Charlie's housekeeper Pol committed suicide before the news spread, and then Senor attacked George Negan, the governor of the Rhodes Islands.

But after getting your reminder, I took Prince Edsack as the object of investigation, and then there was a big smog, and he himself ended up committing suicide.

Dear Mr. Fool, if my previous investigation is correct, then Edsack is the victim, but he is indeed related to the Witch Sect, and the 'Lieutenant General of Disease' supported by the Witch Sect also seems to be involved in the slave trade... Now MI9 gave up the investigation because it involved Prince Edsack, and handed it over to the church to handle..."

Klein, who was sitting at the head of the long bronze table while listening and analyzing, frowned. He heard that he had finally covered his face with his palms. As a keyboard politician, this was the first time he faced high-end political struggles and the battle for the throne. Bureau.

On the Internet, it is possible to exaggerate, but when it comes to reality, it can’t be like that.

This is a mysterious world, and the damage caused by a powerful Beyonder is not much worse than a real war.

Although Klein could hear the meaning of Mr. Emperor's report, that is, the weight of the Augustus family in the smog is probably no worse than that of the Aurora Society and the Witch Sect, or even the real murderer. The "Emperor" of the Augustus family did not dare to say or guess, so he could only turn to the godlike Mr. Fool for help.

The succession to the throne is always mixed with blood and rain~www.wuxiaspot.com~ But that is because the old emperor can't control the situation, Augustus is an angel family! They are Beyonders with the level of angels, maybe their ancestors are still alive!

There is no way they would allow the struggle to expand to such a degree unless there are other interests.

But I am not a god!

I'm just a small Sequence Six. In reality, I'm not your opponent, Mr. "Emperor". Don't throw the problem to me!

Despite his self-pitying, Klein answered the "Emperor"'s prayer after rubbing his face a few times.

"I see."

He can only answer this way. After all, he still hasn't figured out the truth behind the smog, and he doesn't know what the Augustus family is planning.

Mr. "Emperor" shouldn't be able to investigate now, or he doesn't dare to continue the investigation... Klein sighed, and it was difficult for anyone to accept that the investigation found his own people.

However, according to the investigation of the "Emperor", there must be clues at sea. Whether it's the dead "Lieutenant General Twilight" and the Governor of the Rhodes Islands, George Negan, or the living Oravi Governor Auston Levitt and "Lieutenant General" Tracy, at least this does not match my itinerary. ?

PS: I wrote in Chapter 222 that there is no thermometer in this world, and later found out that the mystery was described in degrees Celsius. However, the thermometer for making sugar was invented in the 1860s, around the same time as Mystery
