Chapter 73 Puppet Master Puppet Master
The sharp cry of the Mist Crow immediately attracted the butler old Fanks who was patrolling the mansion to prevent Extraordinary people from sneaking in.
With an agility that is absolutely impossible for a nearly seventy-year-old man in this era, accompanied by the sound of continuous footsteps, old Fanks ran up the stairs all the way to Yago.
Immediately, he saw Yago standing at the door of the room.
"Master? What happened?"
Old Fanks looked a little puzzled, looking around, afraid to overlook any dangerous factors.
"No, it's nothing, it's just that when I opened the door and entered the room, Shugeyin suddenly rushed out, which surprised me. Maybe tomorrow morning, I can change it to other grains, and I can add some minced meat."
Yago originally wanted to say that because he was frightened, he reduced the food for the fog crow, but
Thinking that it picked up such important things for itself in the world of books, isn't it a bit bad to punish instead of reward?
"No problem, sir, we have recently purchased some flour and grain from the Kingdom of Dunwall from Mr. Contanred."
The Kingdom of Dunwall is a large agricultural country, rich in various grains.
At this moment, Elsa's door opened, and Elsa, who was wearing a delicate nightgown, walked out of the room holding Little Betty's hand:
"You can buy more later, Fanks."
Seeing little Betty and Elsa walk out, Fan Kes also heaved a sigh of relief, and he bowed slightly:
"Yes, miss."
Facing Yago's eyes, Elsa said:
"Because of that stupid Conservation Act, other countries have also raised tariffs on Cartesia's imports, and the Parliament decided, no, the abolition of the Conservation Act is already in progress. After all, those nobles who own factories have more money than nobles who own land. Rather than protecting agriculture, it is more in line with their wishes to suppress workers’ demands for higher wages and get raw materials at lower prices.”
"Oh." Yago nodded half-understanding. He always felt that this incident was a bit familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere.
Yago's demeanor made Elsa mistakenly think that he was thinking about how she knew. She held her hand, covered her mouth and smiled lightly:
"Those ladies and ladies who can't climb into the real upper class want to show off everything they know and others don't know."
However, small talk is fine at any time, and at this time, other things are more important:
"Weakness takes a week or so to recover"
There was concern in her eyes.
Her words immediately made Yago understand what she meant. Although he didn't plan to talk about the mask, the ruined temple, and the bell tower, other things can still be explained:
"I may have encountered an Extraordinary with broken gears. A bird-shaped clockwork mechanism appeared beside me. I don't know if I was being watched."
Yago told the truth about the first half and concealed the second half.
And Yago's explanation made Elsa suddenly.
"A clockwork mechanism? It should be the 'steam' route."
The main sequence paths mastered by the church itself are basically named after the names of the corresponding churches.
Although the name of the church is not equivalent to the ability of the sequence, it is definitely related. Before knowing the real name, use the name of the church or its Extraordinary team to call it.
Elsa, who has explored the story of Ravensong many times, with Arabella as her main character, has some understanding of the Extraordinary of the Broken Gear and the ability of the "steam" path.
Although the abilities of the Extraordinary in the world of the book are different from reality, the clockwork machine is most likely the main sequence path mastered by the Church of Steam.
Yago was noncommittal.
He couldn't help but doubt the corpse's strange death method and performance, which was similar to Miss Elaine's in the Diroud Grand Theatre.
The next day, after complaining that the taste of the food was too bland, Yago and Elsa came to Fast's cloakroom in a carriage.
After getting the spare key of the cloakroom from Elsa, Yago left the cloakroom, took a carriage, and headed to the gentleman's club.
On the square of Ronglu Road, the tents that were still set up yesterday have already been set up at this time, and the tents are colorfully set up.
Looking out of the car window, Yago saw the signboard of Philip's Circus, and actors in colorful costumes were distributing leaflets.
There are clowns dressed in funny clothes with various oil paints on their faces, and some acrobats who perform some simple acrobatics with cartwheels and flexible movements. There are also a few little boys, girls and some girls who are surrounded by little boys, girls and some girls. magician in a top hat.
Looking at the circus, Yago suddenly remembered the words spoken by the Extraordinary who attacked yesterday in the Diroud Grand Theater.
"Ladies and gentlemen." Maybe the Extraordinary who committed the crime is hiding in the circus?
Although the speed of the carriage was not too fast, it quickly made the circus tent disappear from Yago's sight.
West Flame Road.
Through the exquisitely decorated black railing door, Yago entered the gentleman's club.
Open the pocket watch with a silver morning star on the surface, like a cross symbol, and the hour hand in the big circle is pointing to the number representing 9 in the lower right corner.
Perhaps it was because it was still early, and there was no one in the hall. Only at the counter, the maid named Jacqueline who was in charge of the reception was changing the flower arrangements for the vases in the hall and trimming the branches.
Seeing Yago enter, she bowed politely to Yago, Yago also nodded, and then walked towards the prayer room.
Pushing open the door of the prayer room painted with rose patterns, Alenasia was sitting on the black bench on the right, praying to the goddess statue with her hands crossed on her shoulders in a prayer posture.
Although he is not a believer of the goddess, as a member of the Thorn Tree, Yago also symbolically crossed his hands and put his shoulders on his shoulders to pray.
Afterwards, he asked Alainasia, who had stopped to pray, where Friesen was.
"The captain has gone to the Furnace Square to investigate. He said that he suspects that the attacker who appeared in the Diroud Theater may be hiding in the circus."
Sure enough, as long as you are not stupid, you can find clues from those words.
but
As if seeing Yago's doubts, Alenasia smiled gently and explained:
"You can also pay attention in the future, because the method of digesting potions is to learn and imitate the names of potions, so the identities and actions of extraordinary people on the surface will most likely match the corresponding occupations."
Yago nodded, which is understandable.
"According to our discussion, the attacker may be the Sequence 7 of the 'Fraud Master' pathway, the offset sequence of the 'Puppeteer' - 'Puppet Master'."
Afterwards, Alenasia continued:
"Crimes involving Extraordinary people at the Sequence 7 level can only be done by the captain who is also the Sequence 7. Someone like me who has no combat power may cause a drag."
Yago has no objection, though.
"However. It's not about the secrecy level, Sequence 7."
If you don't understand, just ask.
