Whispering Verse

Chapter 2711 Professor Quintu

The eighteen-year-old red-haired girl reminded again:

"Although I also think that what Miss Bell saw might be our biggest enemy this time, but the premise is that nothing more terrifying will appear in this woodland."

She shook her head violently, and the witch asked Shade, who was slowly scratching the cat's head;

"Speaking of which, you're running out of fragrance."

She pointed to the almost empty bottle on the coffee table:

"Since it is a relic derivative, the essence in this bottle should be replenished, right? What needs to be done? Can we help? This bottle is very important for the current operation. Let's replenish it before the next enemy appears. ”

"She" chuckled in his ear, and Shade subconsciously turned his head:

"I don't need your help with this. I will figure it out myself when I get home."

"Xia De, do you still want to be polite to us at this time?"

So Miss Winslet said angrily, but the red-haired girl who probably guessed something did not speak, but looked at Shade with the same pretense of curiosity.

Shade opened his mouth, and finally had to say:

"This bottle can spontaneously transform the 'desire' around it into perfume, and, well, currently I feel that lust has the best effect."

The witch's face turned red immediately. No matter how bold she was, she was too embarrassed to say "I'll help you" at this time.

Because of the chaos in the room that morning, Shade did not go to visit the old professor Margaret mentioned. Miss Bell is still recovering from her injuries, Shade has to clean up the mess in the room, and the two ladies are asking the parliament and the college for relevant information.

And although they did not leave the hotel, the girls responsible for collecting information in the city were still working.

Before lunch, a small piece of news came. Although the news that the Bronte family was being hunted down by the church was not published, it had spread throughout the city, and York Bronte was considered to be responsible for this incident. The central figure was even rumored to have been killed.

Therefore, Miss Linda Bennet, the third daughter of the Bennet family, attempted suicide at home that morning. She resorted to hanging herself, but fortunately, this kind of wealthy daughter had no experience in committing suicide, so she was rescued by the maid in her home in time.

This secretive matter should not have been spread outside, but after being rescued by the maid, Mrs. Bennet rushed home and cursed her daughter on the hospital bed. So Miss Bennet ran to the door of her mansion. From the top of the building, he jumped down in the presence of at least ten passers-by.

Although she was lucky enough to hang on a tree in the courtyard with only minor scratches and soft tissue contusions, this astonishing scene was spread everywhere as second news to the Bronte family.

In a small city like this, things like "martyrdom for love" should have been a fresh topic for weeks. However, because the Bronte family's incident was too appalling, Miss Bennet's incident was destined to be nothing more than a topic of discussion. It can become a footnote to the big news this autumn.

Of course, some people may say that Miss Linda Bennet is a very loyal person in love, but at least Miss Winslet still thinks that she is a silly girl.

"Flora, I remember you told me that young girls are always easily deceived by men who look handsome and mysterious. Miss Bennet is a good example."

The red-haired girl at the dining table said this. Just as the witch was about to nod, she immediately realized that she was talking about herself:

"Our situation is different."

She took the knife and fork and glanced at Shade:

"Miss Linda Bennet fell in love with a man she didn't know at all, but haven't Carina and the princesses of the two countries helped verify Shade's safety?"

She always has a very magical way of thinking about some things, but at least what she says does make sense.

The gloomy sky began to drizzle again in the afternoon, but the rain was so light that Miss Owl thought she wouldn't have to worry about getting her feathers wet when she flew out like this.

The search and investigation of the Bronte family was carried out by the church. What Shade wanted to do in the afternoon was to meet the old professor who participated in the construction of the Golden Concert Hall.

Although Miss Owl really wanted to go with Shade, she took the initiative to stay and take care of her apprentice:

"You two go, I'm still worried about Charlotte's condition. Although she is fine after examination, I think I can't leave her today."

"Would you like to try that sage-level relic [Soul Gem]?"

Shade proposed, but was immediately rejected. The Great Witch of Death is a person who is "very cautious" about relics. She will never use relics when she can avoid using them.

So that afternoon, it was Shade and Miss Danister who went out together. When they walked out of the hotel with an umbrella, Shade looked back at the window upstairs worriedly. He was also a little worried about Miss Bell. Condition.

After they boarded the carriage, the red-haired girl said:

"Flora already suspects that you are a Godcaller."

"Aren't you also doubting it?"

Shade asked, and the eighteen-year-old girl laughed:

"You know? I used to sit alone in the college library, wondering how you used to deceive so many girls without causing a war between them. Now I almost understand that some of them It’s so unreserved.”

"Is this a compliment?"

She narrowed her eyes because of her smile:

"Shad, don't use this method on me."

"Sorry, what?"

He asked with a smile.

"Well, I must admit that some things in this world are so unreasonable."

The professor Quinto who Margaret investigated, who has retired from the History School of Tower Gate Bridge, currently lives with his wife in an apartment in the southeast of Vista City. Their children all work in Willendal, and the retired history professor's pension is quite generous, so they can spend their old age in this city surrounded by forests.

Although today is Sunday, when Shad and Miss Danister came to the door, Professor Quinto was still not at home. Of course, this is also because their visit was not scheduled in advance.

Fortunately, Professor Quinto's wife was still at home. When she heard that the two were researchers from Tobesk, she asked them to go to the Golden Music Hall to find Professor Quinto:

"After retirement, he still wanted to find something for himself, and now he is still a nominal researcher at the museum. He went to the museum of the Golden Music Hall early in the morning and should still be there now."

So the two had to return the same way, but fortunately they had a lot of topics to talk about on the way. Speaking of which, although Shade has been in the local area for nearly a month, this is the first time he has entered the museum of the Golden Music Hall.

Of course, the museum requires tickets, but fortunately, the price of museum tickets is not expensive compared to the tickets for the performance hall. Although Shade wanted to take a look around the museum, he still remembered the most important thing.

The arrows that the elf girl needed were unearthed from the ancient temple of the tree father, and in addition to the terrible things that might exist in the local area in the morning, it became particularly important to know the original appearance of this temple.

Of course, the Orthodox Church could not have been unaware that the Golden Music Hall was originally an ancient temple. But unfortunately, it seems that this temple belongs to the "Father of the Infinite Tree", which is a secret known only to the elf girl, so the church's investigation has not yet reached Professor Quinto.

Margaret provided Shad with documents to prove that Shad was a young scholar visiting Willendel from Tobesk, and the eighteen-year-old Miss Danister was too young, so she served as Shad's "student" and "assistant", so at least this afternoon, the identities of the two were reversed.

They easily met Professor Quinto, who looked even older than Professor Manning. When he met Shad and the others, he smiled and said that the current historical research needs young people like them to participate more.

When Xia De explained his purpose and mentioned that the original site of the Golden Music Hall was an ancient temple, Professor Quinto held a teacup in the reception room of the museum, with an expression of reminiscing about the past:

"That was nearly half a century ago. I was still very young at that time, as young as your students. I was lucky to follow my mentor who had passed away 30 years ago to the then Creekwood Town.

The city was not so big at that time, let alone so prosperous. The hotel we stayed in the town back then. Sorry, old people always like to talk about things in the past, let's get back to the topic."

He looked around the room:

"What I need to point out is, The area of ​​the Golden Music Hall is larger than that of the temple. The buildings outside the concert hall were built outside the temple. The temple was roughly square with the main hall of the concert hall as the center.

When I came here with my mentor, the construction was already underway. The development level of cameras at that time was still quite backward, so there were no photos of the original appearance of the temple. However, the construction team did have a sketch of the temple at that time. It is in the museum. You can go and see it yourself later. "

Xia De signaled the "assistant" beside him to record these contents, and the latter held a notebook and a pen.

"Then professor, did you and your mentors determine which god this temple belongs to during your investigation?"

The old professor shook his head regretfully:

"No, we just found a lot of runes and murals with the theme of 'tree', so this is probably a niche belief in the ancient times of Vista Forest, representing the worship of forests and nature. However, considering the large scale of the temple, there should be a large settlement in the area centered on the ancient Ximu Town, and the many ancient relics excavated locally should be related to that settlement.

You should understand that people who live by the mountains believe in the mountains, and people who live by the sea believe in the sea. This is a very common nature worship."
