Lord of the Mysteries: Yao Guang

Chapter 27 Spiritual Guidance

Esther has been paying attention to the things on the field, and she naturally saw a Backlund Nighthawk groping for something strange from the flesh and blood on the ruins. It was a fist-sized gray-white object.

It seems to be delicious.

This is what Esther came up with.

Then she couldn't help retching because of her own thoughts, the brain-like ash was found from the monster's corpse!Why would she think of eating! ?
Esther let out a long sigh of relief, worrying if she was really going to lose control, this is not going to work... She must pull herself together!At the beginning, he promised Deacon Crestai that he would help the Tingen Nighthawks team.

Even though she thought so, she still stared at the lump reluctantly until it was put into the tin box of cigarettes, completely blocking Esther's sight.

"Small snacks..."

Esther muttered feebly, speaking out what was subconsciously in her mind.

"What snack?"

Leonard handed over a piece of chocolate, which made Esther's eyes widen: "Wow, why are you so considerate? Are you still the Leonard I know?"

The corner of Leonard's mouth twitched: "The captain asked me to send it over."

Esther took the chocolate, opened the outer package happily, and threw the broken chocolate block into her mouth: "Thank you! Thank you, Captain Dunn, and thank you!"

"Captain and the others escort the sealed artifact and the notebook back first, and let you stay here with me. He will let Luo Yao and the others contact the police and bring someone over to deal with the scene."

"It's okay, I'll stay here with you, no one will come."

"how do you know?"

Esther just smirked with chocolate in her mouth and didn't answer the question.

"Okay, that's what you say," Leonard shook his head, pointed to Klein who was following the captain, and watched them get into the carriage with their things, "What do you think of that kid?"

"Kindly, gentle."

Leonard was very dissatisfied with the answer: "That's it? It's over? Is there a more serious answer?"

Esther is of course serious: "It's very easy to play the emotional card. On the surface, she is very rational, but she is not very good at rejecting others, and it is easy to be a good person. At critical moments, she is very adaptable and suppresses her heart full of emotions."

"You know what I want to ask is not such a general thing." Leonard waved his hands, hoping that Esther could give another answer.

Esther's eyes became erratic: "Then, the family is not very good?"

She really wanted to say "a gentleman loves money and obtains it in a proper way", but it was strange to express it in Loen language. Esther was not sure whether Emperor Roselle had quoted this sentence, so she simply changed the way of describing it .

And it's not easy to make money these days, who doesn't like gold pounds?Esther herself loves it too!

Leonard sighed, and sat lazily on the broken wall beside Esther: "Forget it, it would be a huge mistake to think of asking you..."

Esther looked at Leonard, and after a while, she suddenly said, "Then what do you think of him?"

"He has a big secret! A very serious one!"

Contempt appeared in Esther's eyes: "What nonsense are you talking about? If you drag anyone from the street, you will have a secret. Right now, do you have a secret?"

Leonard kept his mouth shut. He never said anything bad about Esther, and he didn't want to admit that he was guilty.

On the contrary, the old voice in Leonard's mind "hehe" laughed twice, as if appreciating Esther's rebuttal.

-

Esther returned to the Blackthorn Security Company later, and after Dunn suggested "early rest", she silently returned to Chanis Gate.

Maybe it really takes some sleep to shake off the emotions of the day.

The raving sound coming from the place where the sealed item was stored deep in the corridor was particularly intense. Esther knew that it was related to the notebook. She stopped in the corridor for more than ten seconds, and finally gave up the idea of ​​troublesome with it.

This is against the rules, and now that Dunn has started to distrust me, I shouldn't make them feel like I'm a bigger threat.Anyway, after the stone gate is closed, the symbols outside the gate will continue to gather the power of the night, and those annoying noises will soon be blocked.

Esther thought so, and walked into her stone house. She flipped through the collection of prehistoric legends in her hand, quickly put the book aside, and got into the bed.

That night, Esther slept very restlessly, her dreams were more like some kind of visual fragments, the laughing dragon cast a gloomy sight, and then disillusioned.

After Esther woke up, she only felt a dull pain in her head again.

She waited for a long time before getting up from the bed, feeling tired like sick.

In this way, it seems that she has never been sick since she came to this world. Is this also considered a golden finger?
Esther was thinking nonsense, and sat on the bed for a long time. When she heard the footsteps and voices outside the door gradually receding, she realized that many people passed by and took away the particularly "noisy" sealed item.

What notes are there?Esther thought about it, and no one seemed to have told her what it was.

Esther wrapped the quilt around her body and sat against the cold wall, silently calming down her emotions. For some reason, her anxiety became more and more clear, like a noose, tightening around her neck little by little.

This gave her the idea of ​​"separating from the Tingen Nighthawks team", but when Esther noticed this change in her mentality, the idea that she didn't belong to her disappeared instantly.

Are external forces influencing me?
Esther could only guess that she didn't have any evidence, and it was the first time she encountered such a mysterious situation.Because Dunn was wary of her, Esther couldn't openly ask him for help.

When Esther felt her mind calm down, she opened her pocket watch and took a look, only to realize that it was already afternoon.

She took the little bug with her, tidied up her appearance, and then went out and knocked on the door of Dunn's office.

"It's Esther, what's wrong?"

"I want to go out for a meal, take a walk, and not necessarily come back at any time."

Dunn hesitated for a few seconds, but couldn't find a reason to refuse: "Okay, then you go, pay attention to safety."

"Alright Captain." Esther smiled and closed the door.

After greeting Rosanne, she walked into the bright afternoon sun.

In fact, Esther didn't have a precise destination. After getting on the tram, she leaned against the window and stared in a daze until she had a thought and got off the bus on Flood Street.Esther only remembered that this place seemed to be the Eastern District, which was under the responsibility of the Punisher team, so she had hardly been here.

But everything today has nothing to do with the task. Esther strolled leisurely on the street, picked a cafe that seemed to be relatively cheap, and filled her stomach with baked bread, baked potatoes with butter and fresh fish soup, feeling quite satisfied. satisfy.

Of course, the taste is not very good, but it is enough for Esther. She likes food, but she can eat anything.

As Esther continued to wander, her spiritual intuition was suddenly touched, she let herself go in that direction, and stepped into a shop that smelled of herbs.

This reminded Esther of the traditional Chinese medicine shop she had visited in her previous life. She didn't dislike the smell, perhaps because she hadn't smelled it for a long time. She took a deep breath to distinguish the smell of various medicinal materials.

Of course, most of them don't know each other, and she is not a herbalist or physician.

The shop owner is a middle-aged man with a round face. His short black hair is well-shaven. His black robe is embroidered with various strange symbols. His figure made him look more stable.

The boss raised his head and looked at Esther strangely.

Esther didn't speak either, and the two just looked at each other, silent for more than ten seconds.

There is no point in going on like this, so the man had no choice but to speak first: "Are you okay?"

It's like saying this like insulting someone.

Esther's brows twitched: "Is this a herbal medicine shop?"

The man rubbed his chin and looked back at Esther suspiciously: "You don't look blind."

Esther walked to the counter and looked at the display cases stuffed with herbs: "I think... what I need is, 'monster', have you heard of it?"

The man's eyes widened, but soon he pretended not to understand: "If you need it, I can call a taxi for you. The nearest regular hospital is only three streets away."

As if because he felt that what he said was not clear enough, the man nodded his temples: "I think they also have a doctor in charge of this. Or you want to go to the more famous Greenhull..."

Esther had heard the name of the Greenhurst Asylum, but she was not irritated, because she unexpectedly felt the man's "kindness", but his wording made people want to punch him in the face: "I want to know you Are you interested in the incomplete 'monster'? If you are not interested, you can tell me relevant information."

"An incomplete 'monster'?" The man's expression finally became serious, his hand fell below his neck, and he felt the abnormal heat constantly emitting from the amulet he was wearing next to his body, "What exactly are you from?"

"In the underground market of the Dragon Bar, there is a shop called—"

Before Esther finished speaking, the man seemed to have been burned by something, and he suddenly raised his hands and waved violently: "Wait, wait! I didn't promise you to take care of this matter! Please stop talking!"

Esther closed her mouth helplessly, she was afraid that if she continued speaking, the man would scream.

"I don't know what 'monster' you're talking about," the man gritted his teeth, struggling in his heart, "If you, I mean, I can't help you..."

Esther didn't speak, just stood there smiling.But for some reason, the man felt his eyelids twitch wildly when he met her peaceful gaze. He subconsciously stepped back and slumped on the chair.The amulet in the collar was so hot that it seemed to threaten the man to make a quick decision. The man didn't dare to touch it, but became more and more afraid under Esther's gaze.

There is a big problem with this lady... If I don't tell her, I'm afraid I'm really going to die here, so I'll fight it out!
In fact, Esther can't do anything to the man, if he really doesn't say anything, she can only leave.

But coincidence, misunderstanding can also be a layer of luck, and Esther has always been very lucky.

The man was like a deflated balloon, deflated and nestled into the chair: "I know! Give it to you, give it to you! I don't care what happens—why should I care whether a half-baked man will die or not!"

The man didn't know whether he was making excuses for his cowardice by shouting like this, or he was demonstrating in order not to show his cowardice and wanted to cheer himself up.But Esther felt his "kindness" again. This man with a poisonous mouth probably didn't realize that what he said was the truth.

Esther's smile deepened: "Thank you very much."
