Chapter 72 Unexpected

Lord of the Mysteries Chapter 72 Unexpected

Queens, side of Viscount Stratford's mansion.

Fors, who was wearing a black dress, hid in a dark corner with Xio, staring at the closed iron gate, patiently waiting for the target to appear.

It didn't rain tonight, so they didn't have to face too difficult an environment, and the carriage parked at the edge of the streetlight made them understand that the harvest would definitely come, the only difference was sooner or later.

After an unknown amount of time, the iron fence door made a sound of metal friction and slowly opened back.

A figure in a dark cloak flashed out from inside, with his head down, walked to the side of the taxi, and stepped on it lightly.

"Is it her?" Forsi lowered her voice and asked Xio beside her.

She neither has the extraordinary ability to restore the other party's image characteristics through description, nor has she seen the other party before, and cannot rely on spiritual intuition or "astrology" to make a judgment.

Xio nodded affirmatively and said

"right!"

During their whispered conversation, the rental carriage accelerated a little bit and drove away from the side door area.

Xio immediately left the hiding corner, preparing to rely on the extraordinary ability of the "sheriff" and the physical improvement brought about by the "interrogator", and use the way of trotting to stalk the target far away.

"What do you want to do?" At this moment, Fors pinned her shoulder, destroying her plan.

"Stalking!" Xio looked back at his friend in bewilderment.

Forsi looked around at the rental carriage that hadn't fully moved away, and asked thoughtfully

"What are you following for?

"Also, didn't you say that after the target enters the Backlund Bridge area, it will be protected by a very powerful Extraordinary?"

"That's right." Xio answered the latter question first, and then said, "Your question is so strange. Of course, the purpose of tracking is to confirm the target's appearance, identity, origin, and purpose."

Forsi withdrew her left hand that was holding Xio's shoulder, and said with a slight smile

"Since the target is protected by a very powerful Beyonder, it will be difficult for us to complete the tracking in the Backlund Bridge area, unable to find her residence, and figure out her real identity. Do you want to directly conflict with that protector? Although With my help, but have you confirmed the strength of the other party? How sure are you? Will it be dangerous?

"Moreover, as long as a battle breaks out, the target will inevitably be alarmed. This is the same as stopping the carriage on the way ahead of time and questioning him face to face. It will destroy your most essential intentions, and will make Viscount Stratford alert and avoid getting into trouble. , I will give you a chance to make a move."

"If you do it, you may fail. If you don't do it, you will fail." Xio emphasized that he is aware of the predicament and just wants to try again, looking for opportunities along the way.

At this time, the rental carriage had turned a corner at the end of the road and entered the street. Forsi watched its back gradually disappear, shook her head and said with a smile

"No, no, what we need to do is to change our thinking!

"We should try to figure out the target's appearance first, wait until dawn, and then use her appearance to conduct regular investigations in the Backlund Bridge area and collect information from other channels."

"You use words very professionally..." Xio said while thinking.

"Of course, I'm someone who has written about detectives!" Fors replied without any modesty.

"However, how to figure out the target's appearance without disturbing her?" Xio asked the most critical question.

Forsi took out "Leymano's Travel Notes" as if she had been prepared, and said with a smile

"It's very simple, use the 'psychological invisibility' recorded by Miss Justice!"

——Although "Justice" Audrey didn't have much chance to use "Leymano's Travel Notebook", she rented it two or three times out of curiosity, studied the functions and characteristics of those Extraordinary abilities, and recorded some of her own Extraordinary abilities In the above, it includes the quite practical "psychological invisibility".

As for her real identity, Xio and Forsi confirmed more and more, but they didn't ask her face to face, nor did they conduct any further investigations.

This is the most basic respect for Tarot Club members.

Hearing his friend's answer, Xio's thoughts suddenly brightened, and he had several inspirations in an instant.

Forsi continued on her own

"Using this page of extraordinary ability, you will be in the sensory blind spot of the surrounding creatures, even if you dangle in front of their eyes, they will not be able to see. In this way, you can directly board the carriage, walk in front of the target, Da Fang looked at her face calmly, remembering all the features.

"Hehe, I sometimes think that if people who use 'psychological invisibility' are too unlucky, they might be trampled to death by a large creature that happens to pass by.

"Uh, don't make too much noise later, and don't talk to the creatures around you, or you will attract attention, and the 'psychological invisibility' will be automatically released."

"Yeah!" Xio nodded, and raised another difficulty, "How can the target not be able to notice that the carriage door suddenly opened while driving?"

Without waiting for Fors to answer, she immediately asked

"Have you recorded the extraordinary ability of 'opening the door'?"

"What do you think?" Forsi smiled and handed the "Leymano Travel Notebook" to her friend, and explained which two pages were "psychological invisibility" and "opening the door".

After firmly remembering it, Xio immediately ran quickly along the shadows on both sides of the road, chasing after the previous rental carriage.

Not long after, she saw the target, and immediately flicked her right hand, revealing a yellow-brown parchment from the copper-green notes.

Gently sliding his finger across the gap, Xio seemed to see countless waves of light emerging on the surface of the deep lake and spreading out to the surroundings.

When her vision returned to normal, she quickened her pace and quickly arrived at the side of the carriage.

For confirmation, Xio didn't take any direct action, and overtook the horse with a few strides.

She turned around immediately, as if crossing the road, but the coachman didn't notice it, neither shouted a reminder, nor reined in the horse.

After confirming that "Psychological Stealth" was effective, Xio accelerated, avoided the impact of the horse, and came to the side of the carriage.

After a little observation, she flipped through "Leymano's Travel Notebook", revealing a white paper covered with strange patterns and symbols, then stretched out her right hand and pressed it against the wall of the compartment.

Her figure became transparent and appeared inside the carriage.

The woman in the deep black cloak was sitting diagonally opposite, looking at the glass window on Xio's side as if thinking about something, but ignored the bounty hunter who broke in suddenly.

At such a close distance, even if her cloak is pulled down, Xio can still see her face clearly, not to mention that she is not as cautious as when walking outside, and her every move seems quite casual, so much so that the cloak shrinks. to the eye position.

In an instant, her appearance was reflected in Xio's eyes, overlapping with a face that retained masculine features.

This is the extraordinary ability of the "sheriff".

Xio's eyes widened, and he blurted out uncontrollably

"Sherman?"

She could foresee that the woman who often came and went to the Viscount Stratford's mansion during this period was quite beautiful, but she never expected that the other party turned out to be her friend Sherman, a young man!

A man who had never been considered neutral beauty for a long time, turned out to be so beautiful and feminine now!

At this moment, Xio couldn't help but looked Sherman up and down a few times, completely unable to connect the other's figure with the young man he knew before.

If it wasn't for the extraordinary ability of the "sheriff" to confirm that the opposite person is Sherman from the essence of the five senses, Xio would definitely think that she had misidentified the person, and even so, she now suspects that the opposite person is not Sherman, but the same Sherman. Sisters born on the same day as father and mother.

Hearing that surprised question, Sherman noticed that there was an extra person in the carriage at some point, a familiar person.

Bounty hunter Hugh Dilcha!

She, who had changed her name to Xueman, was terrified at first, and then instinctively said some words that Triss often mentioned

"Now you can't be touched by former acquaintances.

"Don't you want your husband, the one you love, to know what you were like before?

"Only by completely cutting off contact with the past can you gain a new life and be saved!"

Similar remarks quickly flashed through Xueman's mind, and a thought that she was afraid of suddenly appeared in her heart

"Kill her!"

This idea is like a devil from the abyss, whispering in Sherman's ear and echoing in her heart

"Kill her!

"Kill this man who recognizes you!

"Only in this way can you truly get rid of the past and not lose the present!

"Kill her!"

Xueman didn't answer Xio's question, she clenched her left hand little by little, very slowly and tremblingly.

Xio noticed that the other party had strong mood swings, confirmed that it was Sherman, and immediately asked with concern

"How did you become like this?

"Where have you been during this time? Did something happen to you? Did you get hurt?"

Xueman moved her lips a few times, relaxed her left fist a little, and said in a crying voice

"I've started a new life, don't bother me anymore, okay?

"I, I don't want to lose everything now, and I don't want to see people I knew in the past!"

The more she spoke, the faster she spoke, and the more obvious her pleading was.

Xio was stunned for a few seconds, then stared at Sherman, pursed her lower lip tightly and said

"it is good……"

Without staying any longer, she stretched out her hand to open the glass window of the carriage, and jumped out in a rushing posture.

Xueman watched the whole process in silence, finally let out a long breath, and slumped in place as if she had lost all her strength.

It was hard for her to control the devil in her heart.

At this moment, she saw a figure quickly outlined on the other side, appearing out of thin air.

The figure was wearing a gloomy and deep black old-fashioned long dress, but its sweet and gentle appearance and temperament were not damaged at all. It just sat there without speaking, and people couldn't move their eyes.

Witch Triss!

"Why didn't you kill her?" Triss asked with a smile without any haze, as if chatting about what wine she drank last night.

"She, she, was one of the few people who didn't discriminate against me and helped me..." Xueman replied in shock, then frowned and asked, "Why did you appear here?"

Triss smiled and said

"I'm protecting you."

Without waiting for Xueman to respond, she turned to say

"You seemed to be in a good mood when you came out."

Xueman recalled the previous things, showing a shy way

"Maybe, maybe, I have a chance to be a mother..."

While speaking, she touched her stomach with her right hand, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help pulling to the sides.

"I feel like he's kicking me, kicking me..." Xueman was stunned suddenly, and blurted out in shock, "How could it be so fast?"

She is not even sure if she will be able to conceive a child today!

Seeing her reaction, Triss smiled even more charmingly.
