Mystery: Start with the Reader

Since there was no "teleportation altar" set up at Mr. Gaston's house, Abner first "teleported" back to Bayam's fragrant manor, and then relied on the "flying cloak" to fly all the way to Damir Port along the route .

During this period, due to many unexpected factors such as avoiding the storm, deviating from the course, and getting rid of wild extraordinary creatures, it was already Saturday afternoon when Abner arrived at the school where Mr. Gaston was.

Mr. Gaston still maintained his old-fashioned gentleman's demeanor, but such an appearance could no longer confuse Abner, who was quite familiar with him.

After all, what kind of serious person can a craftsman who can make a "transformation magic wand"?

After taking a sip of the Nanville coffee prepared by Mr. Gaston, Abner stopped his divergent thinking, because it seemed to scolded himself in it...

Next, after a few words with the other party, he went straight to the point: "Is my 'transfiguration magic wand' sold?"

Mr. Gaston nodded and said, "I have already negotiated the price with Littorio. In addition to the secret information about the 'Deep Sea Vice Admiral', he also promised to pay another 5,000 gold pounds."

Littorio is the third mate on the "Dark Emperor", and is also the holder of the "Transformation Magic Wand-Wind" created by Mr. Gaston. The bounty is £11,000.

He accidentally discovered the secret of "Deep Sea Admiral" Hal Constantine, sabotaged the other party's plan, and finally escaped the pursuit of the pirate general.

And Abner judged through "prophecy" that the secret of "Deep Sea Vice Admiral" is likely to be related to the sea monster with the characteristics of "prophet", so he entrusted Mr. Gaston and Littorio to trade before.

"According to the agreement in advance, we will split the difference between 28 and 28. You are 2 and 8, so this is your £1,000." Abner.

The payment methods of pirates are always diversified, and it is impossible to give cash completely... With this in mind, Abner took two bags, made a little calculation, and found that the total value of gold coins and gems should exceed 1,000 gold pounds. Mr. Gaston is kind.

"What about the information on Vice Admiral Deep Sea?" He asked again after putting away the bag.

"Wait a minute..." said Mr. Gaston, stood up, walked to the bookcase on the other side of the living room, took a metal box from the top shelf, and carefully carried it to the one in front of Abner. On the table, he opened his mouth and introduced:

"My transaction with Littorio was completed under the witness of the 'King of the Five Seas', the Lord used his power to make 'rules' for this box with information, once it is opened, you only have Three minutes to read the contents, after which it will self-destruct."

This is to prevent the middleman from peeping the intelligence? "The King of the Five Seas" is quite well behaved, although I don't care...

While thinking so in his heart, Abner opened the "Pure White Eye" and observed the box, and found that the parchment inside was actually "destroyed" long ago, but "King of the Five Seas" Nast used a clever trick. The arrangement "magnifies" the time required for its destruction.

And once the box is opened, the arrangement will be partially destroyed, which will inevitably greatly affect the effect of "enlargement"...

After roughly understanding the principle, Abner felt that if this ability could be developed into a secret technique and used in important replacement parts of machinery, then it would be possible to make a lot of money just by selling consumables...

After a few words in his heart, Abner was about to open the box when the doorbell rang outside the door.

Mr. Gaston was a little surprised. After all, he didn't have many visitors here. Even if he wanted to visit, he would make an appointment in advance, and few came directly.

He nodded to Abner and walked straight to the door...

But soon, he returned to the living room, followed by a man in a black cloak.

This man looks in his mid-thirties, his eyebrows are burnt yellow, his eyes are dark blue but bright, and his outline is not too deep. ” Danitz the “Flame” I had seen.

Why is he here... No, according to the original book, he is indeed on vacation in Damir at this time... Why did he come to Mr. Gaston?

Abner was puzzled, put the metal box in his hand back on the table, and looked at Mr. Gaston.

"I'm looking for you." Mr. Gaston pointed to Danitz beside him and said.

Find me? Is there something wrong with Edwina? Something went wrong with her "Grossel's Travels" expedition? Why not contact me directly?

Abner had all kinds of questions in his heart, but he asked calmly: "Your captain asked you to come to me?"

On the other hand, Danitz hadn't seen Abner's original appearance, and didn't know that he was "Doctor Strange". After looking at him carefully at this time, he cursed inwardly: Another little white face!

After that~www.NovelMTL.com~ he remembered the captain's words and asked in a polite manner: "Are you Detective Brian?"

"It's me." Abner nodded and repeated the previous question, "Edwina foresaw that I would appear at Mr. Gaston's house, so she asked you to come here to find me?"

Calling the captain's name directly and affectionately...I also know that the captain can "predict"...what does this little white face have to do with the captain? Hmm... Could he be the captain's brother? That's why the captain asked me to be polite to him?

Danitz comforted himself a few words in his heart before answering Abner's question:

"You guessed it right, the captain foresaw that you would be here, so he gave me this mission before my vacation.

"She asked me to tell you that she has obtained clues from the descendants of the soldiers, and she will be waiting for you to join her in Tosk."

Soldier... Edwina found the descendant of Longzel? The captain of the "Wancheng Splendor"?

The "back door" added by Roselle or "Seal of Calamity" to "Grossel's Travels" really was done through Longzel...

But this "back door" needs to go to Tosk to activate?

Heh, Tosk, the port city from Intis to Loen, has had a high "appearance rate" here recently...

The Archbishop of the Steam Church of the Surreys dies in Tosk; the identity of Fanny's grandfather is also taken there by a "thief"...

Now the arrangement of Roselle or the "Seal of Calamity" also appears there...

This is unlikely to be a simple coincidence, right? Is it some kind of aggregation effect?

In addition, there must be something special about the Surrey family, otherwise they would not be involved in such a vortex of fate...

Even if there is probably someone behind this "arrangement".
