Xilan also moved forward, and the two of them looked at the paper ball in the bottle.

The cheerful and relaxed expression on Fan Ning's face disappeared little by little, and he returned to his usual calm and silent look.

He took a deep breath, moved the ball of paper away from his eyes, and continued to look at the night view of the rooftop garden as if nothing had happened. Then he raised his hand again and read the words above carefully.

"Caron," Sheeran called softly after witnessing his little move, "You don't really like spending your energy on this kind of thing, do you?"

Fan Ning looked down at the words and said "hmm".

"On weekdays, you usually have things on your mind, while maintaining a calm state of being polite and courteous in dealing with others. But in fact, this does not seem to be your original character, because I have found many times that as long as you can encounter a relatively long and concentrated relationship, you can be devoted. When it comes to pure things, your state can temporarily return to the way it was when I first met you.”

The girl's eyes showed a look of serious recollection: "For example, after getting rid of the "agent" of the Pleasure Listening Club, she spent a short period of time concentrating on the idea of ​​"Symphony No. 1". For example, after the graduation concert incident, for a supplementary performance, Rearrange the time of the symphony, like now, after solving the mysterious incident that happened unexpectedly and dealing with the special patrol hall, from attending the opening ceremony to the condolence event and then to the time of polishing, performing and enjoying success in the past few days."

"In these days, you are serious and determined, but you are also happy or excited, and you don't hide it. People who work with you can feel it, even just now."

Fan Ning looked at her thoughtfully: "If you hadn't summed it up like this, I wouldn't have clearly discovered this about myself."

Sheeran recalled the scene where he had just taken out the drift bottle: "You have been promoted to a high level, right?"

Fan Ning's right hand slowly drew out the beat, controlling a few egg-sized water droplets to rise slowly from the pond and float up and down in the air.

Then, he raised his left hand and glanced in the other direction. The rugged rockery there was deformed like tofu. A strangely shaped large stone was twisted out of thin air, and then suddenly hit the soil, knocking out a Big pothole!

A few days ago, Fan Ning performed the "Gothenburg Variations" in front of a group of masters. This is his most influential performance so far, both in terms of the audience level and the divinity of the work, triggering the "Endless Fugue" Watching and being promoted to a high level that night, as he slowly became familiar with the new spiritual state, he discovered that this invisible force was very strong, ridiculously strong.

——Just like a conductor can control the strength, speed, and movement of each part of the orchestra with just a finger, the invisible power of this "key" has an incredibly strong "command ability" over physical objects. Fan Ning yesterday I found that while holding on to the "old days", I could twist a solid steel pipe as thick as my wrist into twists out of thin air!

But just like the light of first recognition of the "candle", the thread of inspiration cannot penetrate the etheric body of living beings for the time being, and therefore cannot directly act on the human body.

"An extremely rare concrete form of inspiration." There was wonder in Sheeran's eyes, as well as girlish admiration and admiration. "Carolen, your progress in the mysterious side is no slower than your rise in the art world. I I firmly believe that you can find the most suitable way to deal with it again, but it will take more effort. Or, if you don't like it, we can simply choose to ignore it. Another small move by the secret organization has no direct interest in us for the time being. "

…

"I have a personal item that was kept inside the Special Patrol Office." Fan Ning told her, "It shouldn't be an extraordinary item, but it has great commemorative significance for me personally, and it may be of potential use. Well, It might be an odd thing to say, but it’s true, and if the time is right, I might explain it to you further.”

"As long as it is commemorative to you, then we will find a way to get it back together." Sheeran said, "Since the content of the letter mentioned that they have a way to take "The Pain Room" out of the sealed room, then we You can really try to see if this method can be used for yourself.”

"This is half of the motive." Fan Ning nodded. "Equally important is the whereabouts and movements of those people. The culprit who concocted the graduation concert incident and led to the deaths of so many teachers and students has not been dealt with yet. Since Three months later, these people reappeared in Fort Santalan."

Fan Ning knew that the main motivation for the Special Inspection Office's involvement in the investigation of this series of incidents was to contain the Gate Gnosis and search for the remains of the Origin God. These matters had nothing to do with him. He just wanted to find out the movements of those people and deal with them. ——Taking action against secret organizations is also in line with the authorities’ rules of the game.

There is no doubt that both motivations determine that Fan Ning must actively deal with this matter and seek opportunities.

White smoke floated out of the air, and the suspended water droplets condensed into solid ice balls. After a few turns in the air, they crashed into the violently boiling and bubbling pool water below. The next moment, the water returned to its original flowing state as if nothing had happened. There was a rush of hot air in the air.

Fan Ning said slowly: "When we finish a few mysterious incidents that we have been involved in, solve the ones that have not yet been solved, and then get what we need to get back, maybe we can usher in a long period of time for the whole body." Time devoted to art: quietly complete the next symphony, sign a group of outstanding artists, select good talents to form a choir, write some good works for each of you, and organize a few more This influential art exhibition lets everyone know that coming to Turner Art Hall can continuously experience new artistic enjoyment and continue to make more money, which everyone likes.”

Xilan nodded seriously "Yeah" beside him.

"However, for the time being, we must step away and return to thinking about things that are not so pure and dangerous. Just as"

Fan Ning's tone brought a hint of confiding: "The second movement, full of nostalgic warmth and joyful sunshine, hastily ended. People always wake up from daydreams and return to the hazy real life, where there is no end. The boring activities, the noisy rush with almost no time, and the repetitive life with half the interest make people feel numb and shuddering."

He stared at the rows of lights in the higher windows of the hotel: "Perhaps this is the third movement scherzo I will write next, just like looking at the swirling crowds in the dazzling ballroom, and standing in the darkness of the outside world. When I looked at them, they were so far away, and the sounds I heard were fast, distorted, and blurry.”

The little girl reached out and patted him, then took the note in his hand: "The new code name is 'Ben'? This pronunciation refers to the madman who was kicked into the Pushor River by you and his car on the bridge that night. Is Investigator Benjamin right?”

…

"He was right." Fan Ning's eyes returned to the calmness and calmness of a few days ago. "This man said that he used a drift bottle to communicate, and it was really a drift bottle." He repeatedly looked at the bottle in his hand and felt, " It should be a ritual object related to 'Yan', but I don't know how it floated to the rooftop garden of this hotel out of thin air. Is it really what he said, just write a note and throw it into the river? , it’s here right here? This artificial pool can’t be connected to any natural river, right?”

The first plan that Fan Ning thought of was to go with the flow and pretend to be polluted by the "Fountain in the Painting" to meet Benjamin. There was a high probability that this crazy investigator would take out the items from the sealing room of the Special Inspection Department. Method tells yourself this "like-minded" person.

After knowing the method, it is completely up to you to decide whether to bring out "The Room of Pain" or the confiscated mobile phone.

The next step is to inquire about the recent movements of the secret organization to see if there is any chance to grasp the whereabouts of the "Perfumer", "Experience Officer" and others. Once an opportunity is found, take action or inform the president of the new invisible power that he has mastered. After a few days of adapting, I found that its offensive or auxiliary functions are very powerful, and it can be combined with the Light of First Acquaintance. It is easier than before to deal with them head-on.

However, after their initial thoughts, the two noticed almost at the same time that there was another way of thinking.

"Caron, do you think Sylvia is from the Special Patrol Office?" Sheeran asked.

"What do you think?"

"At least 70% to 80%."

"Perhaps 80% to 90%," Fan Ning said. "Who is behind the scenes of a mysterious incident? Judging from the ultimate beneficiary, there is usually nothing wrong."

Judging from the current review of the graduation concert incident combined with the underground gathering, pleasant listening will refine the essence of radiance, the Transcendental Club collects vitality feeding ritual vessels, and the School of Harmony presides over the final ceremony. But who provides the secret of the "phantom man" Sylvia, who read technical literature and hosted the party, did not appear throughout the whole process until the end.

Investigator Benjamin appeared. He first called himself to the Special Patrol Hall for an interview and asked to give up the premiere, and finally took the "phantom man" away.

The time is perfect every time.

The matter was too obvious, and Luo Yin's later interpretation of the door and its gnosis characteristics could also support the motives of the Special Inspection Office.

Therefore, Fan Ning believes that the Special Inspection Office seems to be an agency responsible for the mysterious side security of the empire and the people in name, but in fact it has extremely little regard for people's lives and will use any means to achieve other goals or ambitions.

Contain the spread of abnormal areas as much as possible? Provide a platform for more artists with potential for promotion? This is the responsibility of any normal human extraordinary organization, or in other words, as long as it is not an obvious evil organization, this mission must be mentioned as "political correctness".

Fan Ning believes that any official organization will hope that it has the strength to gain a dominant position in the discussion group, and then assume this function, export its own church/school ideas, and formulate governance or control rules that are more in line with its own interests. As a further inference, even some secret organizations may preach in their doctrines how to save the apocalypse caused by the abnormal zone.

…

"Since Sylvia will appear this time," Fan Ning said slowly thinking of this.

"Then that hat?" Sheeran immediately understood.

Ufranser made such a big fuss before. If Sylvia is an informant arranged by the Special Patrol Office in the underground world to use secret organizations to do things, then it is almost inevitable that she knows Vasius. Something happened.

The Harmony School pursues the "Gate of Seven Lights", and judging from the Alliance Dream Conference, the Special Patrol Office also cares about it. The Harmony School has value in using the Special Patrol Office, and its motives are reasonable.

So the second strategy is to meet them as Vasius, so that you can take the initiative on the other side, especially in terms of knowing the whereabouts of other participants.

"But this doesn't match the content of the previous communication between me and Benjamin." Fanning paced and thought.

"The content of the previous communication," Sheeran repeated, "is not right! If Sylvia is from the Special Patrol Office, and Benjamin, who was contaminated, wanted to go to the Special Patrol Office to steal "The Painful Room", how could they appear in the same place? And the wording of Benjamin's letter also reflects Sylvia's host status. Subordinates stealing things from their superiors?"

"Perhaps, the people present this time are not in a relationship of superiors and subordinates, but still in a relationship of commissioned persons and employers." Fanning felt that this was not necessarily contradictory, "Have you noticed that the Special Patrol Office shouted to purge the pollution of the Harmony School on the one hand, and on the other hand, their informants really came to the Harmony School, shouted to fight against the Special Patrol Office, and made an appearance of inviting me"

"The information between them is not necessarily It is completely unobstructed. The School of Harmony does not know about the Special Patrol Office that has confiscated their "phantoms". Their informant is sitting in the employer's position and chatting with them. Moreover, it is a big trouble to be discovered to steal things in the sealing room. I guess Benjamin will still talk to me in an obscure way. He is a madman, but not a fool. "

Shilan said: "In fact, choosing to meet directly in your own identity or to meet in the identity of Vashius is not a question of choosing one or the other."

"You mean, together?" Fanning's eyes lit up, but then frowned, "Will this be too risky?"

"There will be no less risks, but I don't think it will increase the extra risks if it is handled this way. On the contrary, we can support each other." Shilan thought for a while and said.

"After the underground party series was exposed, Sylvia should have known your identity. There is no need to hide when meeting her. Benjamin and you know each other, and the perfumer also showed up at the graduation concert, so we staggered a little. You should meet normally, and I will go ahead to test Sylvia's attitude. If it becomes a plot like an informant recognizes each other, then the initiative will be greatly improved."

"What if we guessed wrong?"

"Guessed wrong? First of all, this possibility is too small. Secondly, I use sound as a signal and my figure is still hidden. If Sylvia can't recognize it, she will probably think it is a referral to the banned person. Besides, your promotion to a high rank this time is a qualitative leap. The invisible power of the two phases is extremely powerful when combined. The terrain on the roof is also suitable for evacuation after an unexpected situation occurs."

…

After the two finalized some details of the action and returned to the hotel, Fanning made a decision to notify all members of the symphony orchestra overnight to return to Uvlansel in advance and leave tomorrow morning. For ticket issues, contact Lu directly to use special dispatch channels.

The situation in Santaran Castle was too unclear. After going out several times, Fanning had already sensed the tense atmosphere behind the prosperity. His decision was purely for the safety of his classmates.

This decision surprised and disappointed the classmates. After the tense performance was finally over, the original plan was to watch the closing ceremony a few days later before leaving, so that everyone could have a few days of fun in the imperial capital in an extremely relaxed state.

However, due to Fanning's absolute prestige in the symphony orchestra, no one objected. Moreover, the profit distribution would be distributed soon after returning. Thinking of the box office of this performance, everyone was looking forward to it.

The brief and efficient arrangement ended immediately. An hour later, the two had arrived at the location marked on the address.

It was less than eight o'clock in the evening, but the traffic in the streets of Santaran Castle was less than half of the usual traffic, and even less at the junction of the two districts. The sparse gas lamps were glowing faintly. Ahead of Joscan Street was a bad road under construction. The plants on the hill on the other side had been completely shoveled away and covered with orange mesh to prevent soil from sliding.

Address No. 22 is a six-story gray office building. On the street side is a dark club with a "Closed" sign.

The two of them went into the narrow alley next to it and went around to the back. The courtyard and buildings here were dilapidated, and the doors and windows were still closed, but "Vasius" next to Fanning was puzzled and whispered the name on the houseplate.

"Reladim Chemical Trading Company?"
