Whispering Verse

Without even having to go to the nearby area to inquire about the situation, the onlookers had already pieced together what happened here.

The fire broke out around eight o'clock last night. The raging fire emerged from inside the library filled with books, and then quickly ignited the entire building. Since it was too late when it was discovered, the fire burned all night before it ended.

While the open fire was extinguished, people found a charred body in the basement of the ruins of the library. Judging from the remains of burned metal products and tooth marks, the body was that of Booker, the owner of the library. Mr. himself.

The entire library was completely burned down, and the fire devoured everything. In the end, only the collapsed remains of the building and a few wisps of hot smoke that did not often appear in winter were left.

Residents, firefighters, and policemen who were watching the excitement nearby crowded around the ruins, making the originally deserted library more lively than anywhere else for the first time. However, the dead Mr. Booker could not help but notice all this. Probably got it.

In fact, fires are very common in winter due to the use of fireplaces, kerosene lamps, etc. Therefore, even if the police arrived to investigate, people still believed that the incident was probably an accident. After all, the safe found later had not been tampered with at all. There are traces that the gold products and belongings in the basement that were also burned have not been looted.

After understanding the general outline of the matter, Shade still thought it was a bit incredible.

He and Luvia got back on the carriage and prepared to go home. On the carriage, Shade asked Luvia to divine whether this incident was really an accident.

Luvia was in the fourth ring like Shad at this time. She used the building debris and garbage she had just picked up as divination materials. After tossing coins three times in a row, Luvia nodded to Shad:

"It appeared to be an accident. The kerosene lamp that was not extinguished in time ignited the desk, and then the fire spread throughout the library."

But after saying this, the purple-eyed girl frowned slightly:

"But this doesn't feel right. You know, my divination talent is very good, and now this result is as if someone deliberately interfered with the divination."

There are many ways to interfere with divination, such as the [Twenty-sided Dice of Destiny] that Shade carries with him.

Without Shade asking, she tried to get rid of this interference herself. But it was very difficult. Until she returned to Saint Teresa Square, Luvia still could not find a way to perform successful divination.

And when the two entered the door and little Mia ran downstairs happily, the purple-eyed girl said to Shade again:

"Yesterday in bed, when you told me what you did to the princess, I remember you said that. Last night at about nine o'clock, when you and Margaret Anjou were kissing in the back garden of Canary Manor , Lykins Prisha jumped from the garden wall."

"Do you suspect that he set fire to the library?"

Shade asked while changing his shoes. Luvia nodded and went upstairs with Shade:

"You and he went to collect a book on Monday, and the library caught fire on Tuesday night. How could there be such a coincidence? We need to investigate this matter."

"Then how about I go investigate now? You know, I'm still very connected in MI6."

As Shade said, he really stopped going upstairs, but Luvia shook her head:

"Since the arsonist thought of interfering with divination, it is impossible to leave clues for you. Instead of investigating, why not use a simpler method, Shade, how many coins do you still have in your hand?"

"Two [Coins of Wisdom]."

Shade replied, but immediately shook his head:

"I can almost predict that the Chosen Ceremony will definitely be held within seven days. Now we are just waiting for Margaret and her party to arrive in Huntingdon City. At this time, are you sure you want to consume the few coins left?"

Luvia frowned slightly and paused on the stairs for a moment before continuing upward:

"The purpose of getting the coin is for divination. My inspiration tells me that this matter is very important and it is worth it."

So Shade returned to the basement and took out the coins. The two of them were still doing divination in the living room. As the sky-blue coin was thrown high into the sky, both Shade and Cat saw that the coin had cracks and rust at the highest point, until it fell into a ball. dust.

Luvia opened her eyes:

"He went with you to contain the "Book of Fools" on Monday. On the one hand, it was really for the relic, but after seeing the knowledge inside, he didn't care about the book itself; on the other hand, he had heard that I got Mr. Booker’s book collection and coveted them. On Monday, I actually went to check out the places.”

"Did Jazz really set the fire?"

"Yes, he had planned to do this before leaving Tobesk City. In this way, no one would be able to find out that he did it. During the dinner at Canary Manor yesterday, he left the manor and sneaked into the library , emptied the precious collection of books in the basement. Then he killed Mr. Booker, who happened to have not left, and picked out his favorite books from the library on the ground floor."

Luvia looked serious:

"Few people know what kind of books are in Mr. Booker's underground collection room. Therefore, after stealing the books, Lykins Plisha selected a few books from the library on the ground and placed them in the vacancies downstairs. As for the books stolen from the library, because the library has a large collection of books, after a fire, no one can tell that several books were missing before the fire."

She sighed softly:

"Who would have thought that the chosen one for knowledge and wisdom would actually burn down a library with his own hands?"

Shade pursed his lips slightly:

"Guarding the library is the domain of the ancient god [Silver Moon Sage] who has the power of [Recorder]."

He thought again of what the doctor had said in the foyer downstairs yesterday morning:

"Crazy intellectual curiosity."

"Probably because of this, judging from your description, Mr. Booker, the book collector, will not sell the books in his collection at will."

Luvia nodded, but Shade still couldn't understand:

"But burning down a library and killing an innocent man for a few books? Now I probably understand why Sir looked down on my friend Professor Drake like that on Monday."

"You said it yourself, crazy thirst for knowledge. And from this point of view, what the devil told you about Prisha is most likely true..."

Luvia took a few deep breaths:

"Shadow, if you had the chance to get a very precious Rhodes card, but you had to burn down a Rhodes card club and kill an innocent person, would you do it?"

"Of course not. Even if it's the Impermanence Card, it's not worth me murdering an innocent person."

Shade answered honestly:

"Of course, it's also because I have more choices."

Luvia smiled slightly and picked up the cat lying on Shade's lap. This time, little Mia surprisingly didn't struggle:

"This is the difference between you and him - wisdom is the enemy of the wise. Sometimes the desire for knowledge is a good thing, but the desire for knowledge must be restrained. Think carefully, why knowledge and wisdom belong to this chosen one Name? Knowledge can build wisdom, and wisdom can acquire knowledge."

"Why are every chosen one we meet so weird? The chosen ones of darkness stepped into the darkness, the chosen ones of death reversed death, and now the chosen ones of knowledge and wisdom are seeking knowledge crazily... ....”

Shade sighed.

"At least Iluna is normal."

Luvia reminded, Shade continued to sigh:

"But even so, we can't get rid of Sir before he holds the ceremony. If the qualification falls into the hands of Miss Pavo, the trouble will probably be even greater."

This is not only because Miss Pavo is the sixth ring, one ring higher than Sir Prisha, but also because the former is backed by the [Truth Society]. The truth will appear and the chosen ones will directly affect the final door after it is pushed open. matter.

"Yes, if you can't solve Prisha and Ms. Pavo at the same time and find the third pick, then deal with Lykins Prisha after his ceremony, just like you did with Darkness. Or , at least let the church imprison him. Although it is a bit arrogant to say this, but... this kind of rational and intelligent madman is more terrifying than a pure madman like Darkness."

Luvia said, and Shade nodded. Just as he was about to talk about his preparations for a ceremony tonight to resonate with the power of the moon, he suddenly heard the sound of a bell coming from downstairs:

"Who will come to me? It's the client who asked me to find the cat again."

He went downstairs and opened the door, only to find that the person at the door was Iluna. Shade smiled and moved away from the door:

"Come up quickly, Luvia happens to be here. We are discussing the matter of the chosen ones. Sir Prisha did something wrong."

"Wrong thing?"

The seventeen-year-old girl quickly walked into the door:

"We'll talk about this later. I have something urgent to do here. Is Luvia here too? That's great. I was just thinking about going to find her later."

The two returned to the second floor. Luvia stood up from the sofa when she heard Iluna's voice. The latter spoke quickly:

"Good morning, Luvia, please listen to me. I received a notice an hour ago, asking me to pack my luggage and leave for the south probably tonight. The notice did not mention the specific location, but the landing location should be in Penta The northern part of the great swamp of Nar, in the territory of Drarion."

There is more than one entrance to the Everglades, and Huntington's location is not, strictly speaking, the best. Of course, it's not the worst location.

"It seems that the church is also sure that it is the Pantanal. The response is really fast."

Luvia nodded and looked at the two people standing side by side:

"This time, it's up to you too."

Iluna nodded heavily and said to Shade:

"Wait for my good news, Shade. I'll see you in half a week."

"Okay, see you in the Pantanal. But before that, we have one last thing to sort out."

Shade took out the last [Coin of Wisdom]:

"Direct divination of the chosen one, Luvia can't give the result, then Luvia, please do a divination, contact the chosen one in Tobesk, and it seems to be the Pantanal Voodoo Society who wants to cooperate. Recently What to do.”

He held out the coin, and Luvia tossed it high into the air. She suddenly groaned and was supported by Sha De in time. Once her cost divination continued, it would cause too much mental damage:

"The Voodoo Society wants to release the evil things in the Pantanal, and it's not just the evil things in the Pantanal. There are more than one evil things sealed in the Everglades. When the stars arrive at the right place, it will be the best destruction The timing of the seal. But the Voodoo Society must rely on the power of the fourth chosen person, and the fourth chosen person chose the Everglades to hold the ceremony because there is something in the ritual venue provided by the Voodoo Society that can enhance his power. The method allows him to touch the true crown of wisdom."

Luvia was supported by Shade and looked at the two of them with purple eyes:

"No matter how many things can be divined, the evil things in the Pantanal are more terrifying than the level 0 relics in the narrow space of life and death. Even though there are almost no human settlements in the Pantanal area, it must not be allowed to return to the material world. .”
