Mystery: Mr. Witch and Miss Hunter

Chapter 246 The Witch, the Nighthawk, and the Bathroom

"January 1th, the weather was fine...Although I used to regard the habit of writing a diary as a joke, but now I find that after staying at sea for a long time, it doesn't seem to be effective except to write a diary to record my daily schedule. way of pastime."

Adele picked up the round-bellied fountain pen and neatly wrote at the back of the voyage diary that originally belonged to the Basque captain.

"Due to the postponement of the party, I have to wait until I return from the abyss vortex to get the other main ingredient of the potion. It is indeed a good thing that the two main ingredients have been found, but this also makes the necessary waiting more difficult. "

"Currently, we have reached a place quite north of the territorial waters of the Kingdom of Loen, and we are sailing fast close to the coastline. On the horizon in the distance, we can faintly see the snow-covered Minerminsk Mountains. And, Leila, yes I feel very unhappy about this, because as the ship gradually moves northward, the weather gradually gets colder, which makes her feel very uncomfortable who can only come out at night to let the wind go."

Hope she doesn't have a cold, there is no effective treatment on board.Adele thought sincerely.

"Speaking of Laila, we have to talk about the witches who secretly boarded the ship in Jianhai County."

Adele paused, recalled a little, and continued to write: "They have been on the ship for two days, and the novelty brought to them by the iron-clad ship has basically faded away, so I have the opportunity to learn more about their living habits. It will be of great help to me in arranging their tasks in the future."

Since entering the northern waters of Loen, Aphra from the southern continent has been hiding in a cabin with heating, and only comes out when she comes to the restaurant for dinner at noon.Adele had already briefly hinted at all the sailors on board in advance in a dream, so that they would not be too surprised by it.

Natalie and Laila, mother and daughter, are frequent visitors on the deck. If Queen Honeysuckle's boat was not too fast, they should have had plenty of time to enjoy the sea view.However, after a day of sailing, they still succumbed to the temperature close to minus [-] degrees.

Lisette was quite quiet during this time, just like she was in the bar, she was quiet, and she just stayed in Adele's captain's cabin and read idle books when she was free.Perhaps because of their common hobbies, she and Wendy hit it off quite well.

Natalie has experience in taking care of children, and she can take care of Sophie occasionally in the future. Laila is four years older than Sophie, and they can barely play together...

Adele, who had already started arranging tasks for the witches in her mind, shook her head and stopped her wild thoughts.

"I listened to that guy Venata nagging too much, and now my ears are suddenly clear, but I feel a little uncomfortable..."

Adele laughed dumbfounded, and continued to write: "But it's a little strange to say, this morning the head chef told me that there was less food in the kitchen, but those witches didn't admit that they took something. Considering that Laila has always It’s a duplicity, so I just pretend nothing happened, but I still care a little bit.”

"Hopefully nothing goes wrong."

In the end, Adele hoped deeply.

After writing this, Adele took the Survivor Hidden Blade from the table.After a day of practice, she has initially mastered the usage of this weapon.

To be honest, even though it looks bluffing, Adele would not have mastered it so easily if the assassin hadn't provided Adele with a certain level of weapon specialization.There are too many functions on it, and the mechanical structure is too complicated. Adele is always worried that she will accidentally cut the wrong weapon, and almost cut off her ring finger during the first trial.

However, Adele still couldn't resist the charm of this weapon.

May I ask, which assassin can resist a weapon that can transform and shoot darts?
(Although it may not be as good as "Bleeder" in frontal combat, but it looks really handsome...)
Adele weighed practicality and appearance for a while, and then she pinned the Survivor Hidden Blade back to her arm.

I'm a little envious of Sister Vespa, she's carrying a lot of magical items on her body, and the powerful extraordinary weapons alone are more than the equipment on her whole body combined...

Adele adjusted the mechanism bracket, and retracted the ejected crossbow body.

……

However, in a place that Adele couldn't see, an illusory spirit body that was transparent and integrated with the environment was slowly shrinking back from the ventilation duct of the room, passing through the layers of metal structures of the ironclad ship, and finally came to the In the huge boiler room that was originally used to refine whale oil in the cabin and is now temporarily abandoned.

Britton hid inside the boiler, digesting the information brought to him by the spirit body used for exploration.

Although the feed port of this kind of boiler is not too large, it is difficult for one person to drill in, but for later cleaning and maintenance, there is often a small door at the back of the boiler for maintenance workers to drill in.

Britton let the spirit body put his finger into the keyhole and materialize, and easily opened the door, and then let the spirit body close the door from the outside, lurking in the boiler.

His expensive clothes had long since been replaced by cheap dockworkers' casual clothes.The Sealed Artifact 2-172 took up a lot of space, so he couldn't change his position in the furnace at will, and could only move slightly.

"Judging from her sailing diary, she was not used to sailing before, and it doesn't seem strange that a witch boarded a ship in Jianhai County. She is a guy with a somewhat mysterious identity... She can't act rashly."

After his two days of observation, he discovered that there were at least six Extraordinary people on this ship.Except for the witches he was chasing, Adele, the captain of the ship, and Wendy, the engineer, seemed to be middle-sequence Extraordinary, but the latter couldn't determine the specific sequence.

Although he thought so, he would soon have to face a new choice.

He had been hiding in the boiler for nearly two days, although he only stole something from the kitchen, but now he was still eager to solve his physical problems, so he even gritted his teeth until night.

Hearing the voices of the sailors fade away, Britten was slightly relieved.He first sent out the spirit body to guard the surroundings, then carefully climbed out of the boiler, and tiptoed to the nearest bathroom according to the route that the spirit body protruded.

Although many cabins on the Honeysuckle Queen have bathrooms, they are limited to the captain's quarters and single rooms for important members of the ship, so there are also public bathrooms outside the cabins, which makes it unnecessary for Britton to venture to the deck or Private rooms for other members.

Britton quickly flashed into the bathroom to solve his physical problems. He was subconsciously preparing to tidy up his appearance in front of the sink outside when he suddenly froze.

In the bathroom reflected in the mirror, there was a strange woman with a half-smile who was sitting on the marble sink behind him and looking at him.
