Mystery: Start with the Reader
Chapter 79: The Giant
Fors didn't wear her favorite beige long skirt with ruffles, but a blue female riding outfit embroidered with beautiful patterns. The neckline was tied with a beige lace scarf. It looks a bit heroic.
It's a pity that there is no energy in her light blue eyes, as if she may fall asleep at any time, and her temperament is slightly decadent, which destroys the overall sense of sassy.
As soon as she entered the door, she glanced at the store habitually. When she found Abner, she was a little surprised. She walked slowly to the seat opposite him and sat down. After exchanging a few greetings, she couldn't help asking: " Where's Hugh? Where's she?"
"Hugh is still settling down with her family in East Chester County, and I'm afraid she won't be able to return to Backlund for a few days... She asked me to apologize to you for not being able to return as promised." She was a little curious about her new attire, but she still brought Hugh's message to her first as agreed.
"So it's like this... just now I only saw you but didn't see Xio. If I followed the plot in my novel, I might have heard something bad..." Forsi breathed a sigh of relief, and she was a little tense. His face also softened, and there was a bit of familiar banter in his eyes.
"So there is something wrong with the plot of your novel, especially the setting of a certain 'evil spirit'." Although Abner and Xianyu are not as familiar with Hugh, this level of jokes is still acceptable.
"You actually knew?" Forsi was a little surprised at first, and then suddenly said, "By the way, Xio should have brought you a sample booklet back then."
"As far as I know, "Storm Heights" has been selling well in the whole of Loen in the past month. You are already a well-known female writer, Miss Wall." Although Abner was full of complaints about the plot of the book, it did not hinder He felt that the stories in it were really interesting, and best-selling novels must be read. What if the layers behind the "Dream Labyrinth Tower" turned these novel stories into dream scenes? It is not impossible to "real-time update" the information of the outside world by that tower.
"By the way, why are you dressed like this? And you look tired?" Abner saw that Forsi lacked interest in his fame, so he changed the subject and asked.
"Today I am accompanying Viscount Glaint to go hunting in the countryside...Why are the nobles so keen on such a boring and meaningless activity?" The killed animals complained feebly.
Because hunting is a pleasure for men, the ladies who are watching by the side will naturally suffer... After Abner complained about the hunting activities in this era, the focus shifted to Viscount Grelint On the body, he asked thoughtfully: "It seems that you have successfully caught up with the children of the upper class nobles?"
"That's right, I met Earl Hall's daughter, Miss Audrey the day before yesterday." Since Abner proposed this plan to approach the noble's children, Fors did not hide anything from him.
"You didn't directly ask her to investigate Hugh's father's injustice, did you?" Abner asked worriedly. If she had asked this directly, then Audrey might not be willing to help such a big favor when the friendship between the two parties is not deep, and she might even alienate them.
"Am I that unreliable in your eyes?" Forsi was a little annoyed upon hearing this.
If you know that Xio thinks that you may starve to death at home, you will know that I still trust you... Abner slandered a few words, but seeing Forsi's reaction, he knew it in his heart and asked: "It seems that you should use MI9's investigation of Xio as an excuse for initial contact?"
"That's right, as expected of a detective, the deduction is really good!" Fors glanced at Abner in admiration, and continued, "Although this is an excuse, Xio and I really want to know who is behind the scenes."
Actually, I also want to know... because this person is likely to be related to the witch. Abner thought to himself.
"Today I went to participate in the hunting of Viscount Glaint,
It was just to take the opportunity to understand the outcome of this matter..." When Forsi said this, her stomach suddenly "gurgled", and because of her temperament, she felt a little blushing for a while.
Seeing this, Abner shook his head and laughed, and hastily asked the waiter to order some food that would be served right away, and then returned to the topic just now.
"Viscount Grelint said that a lieutenant named Bernard Carraway gave the order, but the Viscount did not disclose the specific information of this person. He only told me that Hugh's investigation order will be withdrawn within three or four days at most." While eating elegantly and quickly, Ersi took the time to say,
"Bernar Carrawi..." Abner muttered the name, and quickly searched the original novel in his memory, but found nothing, which made him a little disappointed.
It seems that I have to go to the relevant file of the teacher to check again...
After dinner with Forsi, Abner remembered the teacher's banquet tomorrow night, so he invited her.
But Forsi was not very interested in this. She had attended too many banquets, dances, and study parties recently, and she just wanted to lie in bed quietly on Sunday, so she rejected it cleanly.
Abner, who had known her temper earlier, was not disappointed, and bid farewell to her after paying 1 soli and 4 pence to settle the bill.
After leaving the restaurant, Abner followed the address on the business card given by reporter Mike to the outside of a townhouse in the South District, and put the invitation letter written at the office into the mailbox in front of the villa.
At this time, it was completely dark, and Abner walked on the dark street where only a few gas street lamps were still functioning, and hurried to the subway station, hoping to catch the last train before it stopped working.
Suddenly, his spirituality seemed to be touched, and his eyes quickly turned to a corner not far away, where there seemed to be a tall figure hiding in it.
In the apartments on both sides, there was a little candlelight, which was intertwined with the crimson moonlight that was difficult to penetrate through the clouds, barely outlining the outline of the figure.
It was a tall man in his 40s or 50s wearing a brown priest's uniform. He was sitting on the ground at this moment, his breath was extremely unstable, his face was sometimes ferocious and sometimes kind, and he felt as if he was about to lose control.
Just sitting there is like a hill... Is this a descendant of a giant? Wait, this is the South Borough... The giant, still dressed like a priest, isn't he Father Utravsky?
Abner thought so in his heart, but he was not slow in his hands. He quickly took the revolver in his gun bag and opened his "Pure White Eye" at the same time, hoping to find out what this suspected giant bishop is now. Condition.
"Son, don't get any closer. It's hard for me to control my actions right now, and I might hurt you! You'd better stay away from here and go to the police station to call the police." Seeing that Abner seemed to have the intention of stepping forward to check, he sat The giant at the corner spoke.
Hearing this tone, it seems that there is still hope... Abner breathed a sigh of relief after hearing the words. After a few short seconds, the "Pure White Eye" has already initially analyzed the root of the giant's current bad situation. .
To put it simply, he was hit by the spiritual curse in black magic, which aroused his old psychological problems, leading to a tendency to lose control.
Seeing that the priest was still thinking about not hurting others when he was about to lose control, Abner also felt a little compassion. After thinking for a while, he asked: "Mr. Guang, I wonder if it can ease your situation?"
The giant's eyes hidden under the soft hat obviously lit up when he heard this, and his light and sparse eyebrows also raised, saying:
"You can give it a try!"
