Chapter 109 Reasoning
The sound of fast running footsteps reached Klein's ears from far and near, which made him quite calm while standing at the door of the guard room.
"What happened?" Leonard, who arrived first, held the revolver and asked in a deep voice.
Seeing him who couldn't stop the car, Klein suddenly thought of what Roshan had mentioned. Three years ago, Leonard, who had just become the "Sleepless", tried to sprint with the power of the potion without adapting to the power of the potion. The speed ran the stairs and turned into a wheel.
With a light cough, Klein pointed at Chanis and said:
"There was a loud knocking sound from inside just now, and then it turned into a slap, and then the door was pushed open a little bit."
"The Chanis Gate was pushed open?" The little Kornli asked in surprise.
"Yes, a gap was pushed open." Klein was about to continue his description, but saw Leonard, Kernli and Luo Yao did not approach the duty room, stopped a few steps away, and spread out in an arc, as if Protecting yourself.
He paused and said:
"Are you doubting me?"
"No, it's not a suspicion, this is a normal process." Kernli shook his head and denied.
In such a tense atmosphere, Leonard still smiled and added:
"In other parishes, there have been cases where the Beyonder on duty at Chanis Gate lost control, rang the bell, and killed two people in a row while the teammates who came to help were not paying attention."
"Okay." Klein no longer had the grievances and anger he was targeted at, and instead asked, "Then how can I prove that I haven't lost control?"
Leonard restrained his playful expression, tapped four times on his chest, and recited in a low voice:
"They were naked, without food or clothing, and without cover in the cold."
"They were soaked in the heavy rain and clinging to the rock because there was no place to hide."
"They are mothers whose children have been taken away, they are orphans who have lost hope, they are poor people who have been driven from the right path."
"The night did not give up on them, but gave them favor."
...
Divine and compassionate prayers echoed in the ground, giving everyone peace of mind, body, mind, and spirit.
Seeing that Klein had no abnormal reaction, Leonard stopped chanting and said with a smile:
"No problem, you are still our trusted companion."
The indifferent lady Luo Yao, who has remained silent all the time, glanced at Chanis Gate and asked:
"What did you see after the door was pushed open a little?"
"I saw the doom puppet, the one wearing the black classical court dress, 3-0625." Klein still replied with a little fear, "but within three seconds, it was pulled back by an invisible force, Chanis Gate is closed again, what's going on here?"
Leonard, Keenli, and Luo Yao each looked at each other and said:
"Hehe, like you, we don't know the reason for all this. Since the Chanis Gate has been closed again and there is no more abnormality, then we shouldn't enter at this time, we must wait for the dawn and wait for the captain."
At this time, Luo Yao added coldly:
"I'll stay here and watch with you."
"Okay." Leonard spread his hands and laughed jokingly, "As the strongest person here, I'll stay too, Kernli, go back to the second floor, lest the police department be unable to open the door for urgent cases."
Keenli didn't say much, nodded immediately, turned and left.
At this time, Leonard glanced at Klein and Luo Yao respectively and said:
"Maybe we can keep playing? In this case, some entertainment is needed to keep us from getting too nervous."
"No problem." Klein adjusted the revolver and put it back in the gun pocket under his arm. Luo Yao didn't agree or disagree. With his soft and smooth black hair, he followed into the guard room.
Fighting landlords, no, fighting evil,
Klein said casually:
"The doom puppet, I mean 3-0625, according to the description of the material, it should not have the characteristics of being alive..."
"Haha, 3 A's." Leonard squeezed his hand and said chatteringly, "In the past 40 years, 3-0625 has not shown the characteristics of being alive, we can first assume that the description of the data is correct, so as to As a premise to reason and deduce."
"Yes. Do you have an idea?" Luo Yao asked succinctly.
When Klein was hesitating whether to drop the three "2"s at once, Leonard took a sip of the freshly brewed coffee and said:
"Yes, since 3-0625 itself does not have the characteristics of being alive, its performance today must be due to the influence of other factors, and it is a recent factor, otherwise it should have let us see its one side."
"And what has been different behind Chanis Gate in the past month?"
Luo Yao looked at the 3 "2s" that Klein dropped, pondered for a few seconds and said:
"Only one thing is different from before, that is, the Antigonus family's notes and sealed artifact '2-049' once stayed behind Chanis Gate for one night."
Leonard looked at the cards in his hand, tapped the table and smiled:
"If the doom puppet can be abnormal, '2-049' would have created a similar incident behind the Chanis Gate in Backlund, so I suspect that the problem comes from the Antigonus family's notebook."
Klein thought about it carefully and couldn't help but nodded frequently:
"This is probably the biggest... Leonard, I didn't expect you to be a person who is good at reasoning."
Generally speaking, romantic poets and good reasoning are incompatible...
"That's just because he likes to read detective novels recently." Luo Yao stated plainly beside him, "Two kings, 8-K Shunzi, no one wants? Three sixes, no more."
Seeing this scene, Klein and Leonard fell silent.
When they didn't concentrate on playing poker, they forgot one important thing:
This Zhongluoyao is the "evil"!
Watching Luo Yao cut the cards, Klein seized the opportunity again and asked:
"What force pulled 3-0625 back?"
Leonard glanced at him and said with a smile:
"You don't think that the only protective measures behind the Chanis Gate are the sealed chamber buried deep in the ground and a few elderly caretakers?"
"In fact, when the sun completely went down, the caretaker had already left the Chanis Gate and returned to St. Selena's Church."
"The power inside reaches its peak at night and is no longer suitable for living creatures. It will only weaken when the sun rises. This is why the captain told us not to enter Chanis Gate no matter what sound we hear."
In other words, the captain forgot to tell me the reason... Klein pondered and asked:
"Protective measures similar to the magic circle?"
Like an enlarged version of spells and amulets?
"Well." Luo Yao nodded while drawing the card, "The reason why Chanis Gate is placed under the central church in each city is to maintain it with the help of the believers who come every day. Their devout prayers will allow some spirituality to enter the law. Array, the accumulation of less makes more.”
"Is that so..." Klein nodded suddenly and saw a handful of bad cards.
At this time, Leonard smiled and said:
"The protective measures behind the Chanis Gate are more than this. The ashes of St. Selena are buried there. She was a high-ranking powerhouse before her death."
St. Selena's ashes? The ashes of the high-sequence powerhouse? Holy ashes? What can this do? Klein was puzzled and curious.
Saint Selena was a saint during the establishment of the Church of the Evernight Goddess. She was active in the ancient third era and was recorded in various scriptures. Therefore, among the people who believe in the Evernight Goddess, Selena is a common name.
Leonard seemed to have heard Klein's heart and said to himself:
"There are rumors that the corpses or ashes left behind after the death of a high-sequence powerhouse still have incredible power. Of course, this is just a rumor."
Klein nodded slightly and turned his attention back to the poker in his hand.
In the next few hours, there was no abnormality after Chanis Gate, but Klein lost a full two soles, which made him very distressed, and Leonard, who was also full of romantic poetic temperament in playing cards, even lost four times. Sole 5 pence, only the silent Luo Yao is the winner.
"The sun has just risen, and it's my turn next." The quiet "writer" Ms. Sika Teon entered the duty room at six o'clock.
Klein wrote down what happened last night in the record book, and returned to the Blackthorn Security Company with Leonard and Luo Yao.
At this moment, he looked extremely tired, while the "Midnight Poet" and "The Sleepless Man" next to him were still in good spirits.
"This is the difference between different sequences..." Klein was about to pass the partition and go home to catch up on sleep when he suddenly saw the captain open the door and enter.
"Good morning, Captain." He couldn't help yawning as he greeted him.
Dunn, who was wearing a black trench coat, took off his hat and glanced at him with grey eyes:
"Good morning, it's time for you to go back to rest. Did something happen last night?"
Klein briefly talked about the doom puppet and Leonard's reasoning.
"Well." Dunn didn't express his opinion, and walked to his office in a condensed manner, "I will send a telegram to ask the church."
Klein didn't stop, and walked out of No. 36 Zoetland Street slowly, breathing the cool morning air.
His spirit was lifted, and he suddenly remembered something he had always forgotten before:
"I forgot to tell Captain and Leonard that the doom puppets had paper in their hands!"
"How could I forget?"
"There seems to be a subtle force affecting me, preventing me from telling the other Nighthawks about this..."
"...It's been many days since the Antigonus family's notes were stored behind the Chanis Gate in Tingen City. The doom puppet 3-0625 should have been affected long ago. Why did it not appear abnormal until last night? "
"Because last night was my first turn at Chanis Gate?"
"It used all its strength just so that I could see the pattern on that paper?"
"Is this what the Antigonus family notes want to achieve?"
"Because I touched it and survived, and became a fortune teller?"
...
Doubts flashed in Klein's mind, leaving him stunned in place. He didn't know if he should pretend that he didn't remember anything, and continued to go home and sleep, or go upstairs to report to the captain.
