Steel steam and flame

Adolf moved his stiff body, went to the door and sincerely proposed: "I will go next time, but you go this time."

"No." General Pullman shook his head, and even got a little excited, "It's a good thing to go out and do more activities. We are friends, and good things must be shared." He made a gesture of invitation, with a sincere look on his face, "Mr. Adolf , please come out with me to get some fresh air.”

So with sighs, the two expressionless people followed Li Suman, walking together like mechanical bodies, without thinking, on the streets of the city of the Kingdom of Chir.

Although he said he was walking outside, he was actually acting as a follower or adjutant, helping Li Suman carry things and giving her suggestions on selection. As men, fashion magazines are just paper with printed words in their eyes; no matter what the style, each piece of clothing of various styles is just a useless piece of fabric that cannot stop ordinary bullets.

The most important thing is that after Li Suman bought these clothes, she only picked them up to look at them and never wore them. That's just part of what's piling up in the hotel. Whenever a limit was exceeded, she would evaporate the earliest batch she bought into the air, leaving only a small prick of black powder, and throw it into the trash.

At this moment, General Pullman and Adolf just hope that the week waiting here will pass as soon as possible so that they can reach the border of the empire as quickly as possible. Compared with the helplessness and self-repression around Li Suman, danger and fighting have become what they long for. Otherwise, they did not doubt that if they lived like this for a few more days, they would really turn into a mechanical body.

While thinking in a panic, the three people shrouded in silence had walked through several streets and were approaching the prosperous area in the center of the city.

Li Suman, who was turning her head all the way and looking aimlessly at various shops on both sides of the street, was attracted by something and stopped. General Pullman and Adolf behind him stopped automatically, in perfect sync.

"What is that?" Feeling that her interest had picked up at this moment, Li Suman suddenly became curious and pointed to the bar-like store across the street that was decorated in a historical and fantastic style.

"Astrological Psychology Association," she read out the name in Imperial dialect and asked General Pullman, "a school that teaches psychology?"

The dull and loveless two people looked in the direction Li Suman pointed. The words "Astrological Psychology Association" were written on a piece of artistic wood. The appearance of the bar had the atmosphere of a museum.

"In the world of ordinary people, it is used to predict future fortunes, using face reading, palmistry, corresponding horoscopes, or some playing cards to predict what will happen in the future." General Pullman stayed in the small country long enough, and also used it to predict future fortunes. I have lived like an ordinary person for a long time. Compared to Li Suman, who has stayed in the tundra all year round, he knows more about things in life, "destiny, fortune, etc."

"A simple deception." Adolf followed up and commented, "I am more observant and can speak according to the mood of the person involved."

"Is that so?" Li Suman obviously didn't believe it. She felt that her interest and curiosity were aroused by the two people's words.

Two minutes later, she was sitting at a round table covered with a vermilion blanket. General Pullman and Adolf stood behind her, looking helpless and looking at the woman across the table who was dressed like a solemn clergyman.

It's just that this solemnity has nothing to do with the happy look on her face when she received a stack of brand-new coins just now.

"Miss, can you tell me if there's anything wrong or something that makes you feel uncomfortable recently? This can help you more accurately judge your future fortune."

"Miss, please let your expression return to its natural state..."

"Miss, please stretch out your hand so that... you can turn it over and observe the appearance of the back of your hand..."

",,.Please choose your favorite seven stars from this star chart based on your initial impression..."

",,,please choose one of these cards to turn it over..."

Li Suman directly chose the full set of fortune prediction services. After the whole seemingly formal process, the woman solemnly placed the skull card that Li Suman had turned over in front of her. While staring at it, the solemn expression on her face changed. It became thinking, and then there was a hint of sadness.

After about half a minute, the woman raised her head, clasped the skull card with her fingers crossed, and said in a serious and thoughtful tone: "Miss, according to several predictions, your recent fortune is...,... bad! No matter it is connected by the stars, The scorpion tail image or the skull card all point to it. Your face is very rosy, and you are definitely in the healthiest state. But under this health, there are faint black lines spreading, which is a sign of bad omen."

"A serious crime?" Li Suman repeated, with confusion on her face, as if she truly believed the woman's words. Behind her, General Pullman and Adolf also said something silently in their hearts at the same time, but it was more like another way of expressing "oh".

For Li Suman, the two really couldn't think of any situation that could be called "serious". Li Suman has always been the "big killer" to others, and no one else can in turn pose a threat to Li Suman. Standing at the top of this world, in terms of power, the only one who can surpass her is the King of Knights.

The power of the Knight King class can be counted on one hand, and the one in the empire seems to have reached peace with them. General Pullman thought helplessly that it was indeed just a simple trick. If it were anyone else, they might have believed it. But the one in front of you is Li Suman. She just feels it is fun. You definitely can't see the real appearance under that layer of performance.

However, neither General Pullman nor Adolf noticed that when they silently recited "big evil" in their hearts, there was a momentary look of joy on their faces. The deepest feelings from the heart cannot be suppressed by complete reason.

"Well...is there any way to crack it?" Li Suman asked seriously.

The woman suddenly fell into deep thought, raised her head after taking a few breaths, and answered sincerely: "There are two ways."

"Two methods?" Li Suman's solemn expression suddenly eased a little.

"The first one is to treat everything seriously in the recent period, without any unrealistic delusions mixed with your own ideas. This will make things uncontrollable, and eventually lead to danger getting closer to you, and will Cover yourself.”

"The second method is to get inspiration from the skull card. It is not only a harbinger of danger, but it also indicates that the danger is at your feet, right where the tomb is. And this place is where you live recently. So. , as long as you are farther away from the grave where the skeleton is buried, that is, the place where you live, you will naturally be able to decipher the danger in the omen and avoid encountering it."

Li Suman had this expression on her face. She said, "Just leave here as soon as possible?"

The woman nodded solemnly, and then said doubtfully: "Miss, your fortune is very vague. It changes all the time. It is always blocked by one layer, or maybe several layers of fog, so I can't see it completely clearly. From the revelation, There is something else besides 'bad luck'."
