Mystery: Good Witch

Chapter 303 First Communication
After leaving the dance, wandering around the East District, passing the safe house and returning home, it was already late at night.

Angel came to the basement, carefully used frost to form an ice surface, and applied the communication potion obtained from Triss around the mirror to form an oval-shaped closed area. This used about one-third of the potion, that is, Said that the same communication can only be carried out twice.

The cold mirror quickly turned into pitch black, and then the scene on the opposite side appeared. Another mirror seemed to be placed in a dark and lightless room. Although Angel had dark vision, this ability could not reach the other side through the spiritual world. , so it’s almost impossible to see clearly the environment on the other side.

"Hello?"

She greeted cautiously.

There was silence on the other side.

Could it be that this is the mirror where Triss has pre-applied the medicine, and she is not next to it?

Angel frowned and looked at the ice mirror. The potion around the mirror was evaporating rapidly, and the remaining bits gradually melted and flowed along the edge of the mirror, like fresh blood. When these potions disappeared completely, the connection between the two mirrors in the spiritual world would be over. will be interrupted.

After continuing to wait for a few minutes, just when Angel thought that this communication would end in this meaningless way, she caught a glimpse of a piece of paper with something written on it in the corner of the mirror. Due to the dim environment, she could only get closer to the ice mirror. I looked carefully and saw the words above clearly the moment the contact was interrupted.

"Contact again at five o'clock on Sunday afternoon."

Moving the useless ice mirror to the sink and letting it melt slowly, Angel returned to the study and thought carefully about the note he just saw.

"Triss should have prepared all this a long time ago. She left the note in a secret room in advance, as well as the mirror smeared with communication potion facing the note. In this way, no matter who she gives the potion to, The other party can see the note during the first contact and determine the next contact time... The medicine in the test tube can barely be used three times, leaving enough room for mistakes..."

Looking at the dark red potion in his hand that was one-third missing, Angel frowned in confusion.

"But why did she go to such trouble to contact me? Couldn't she..."

Angel suddenly remembered what happened when he saw each other at the dance tonight. Just when Triss was about to say what she was asking for help, she suddenly seemed like a different person. Her expression, demeanor and words were completely different from before. He even hurriedly left the balcony and left the person he wanted to ask for help.

"Did Triss know that such a situation would happen, so she prepared communication potions and magic mirrors in advance so that she could still contact me or anyone sent by the Witch Sect to contact her after an accident? But she How to ensure that this person will not leak the secret... Oh, I remember she said that she had escaped several times and failed. It seems that even she herself has no hope for this operation, it is just a struggle..."

After thinking about this, Angel decided to wait until tomorrow, Sunday afternoon, to contact Tris to see what the other party's plans were, and then decide whether to further contact her.

Although she does not have a good impression of the real murderer of the "Clover Massacre", Triss seems to also want to deal with the Witch Sect, and is even involved in some kind of "coincidence" that can make her involuntarily become the prince's mistress. The power may be the key to exploring the Witch Sect's plan and finding Ince Zangwill.

On Friday, Angel came to the detective agency not far from Backlund Technical College and met the private detective who looked a little bad because he stayed up late for a long time to follow.

"Ms. Watson, my assistant and I have been continuously monitoring the target residence this week, but we did not find the suspicious man you mentioned."

The detective named Raymond handed a thin stack of documents to Angel, who flipped through it and found that it was the record of all outsiders who had been near Lily Granger's rented house in the past week. General appearance and attire, and information about whether the person entered the house.

In terms of age, most of them were Lily's classmates and friends of the same age, and there was no middle-aged man who sent the threatening letter.

"In addition, during the process of squatting, we also discovered another group of people. They were also secretly observing the house and following the lady. Since the other party was also very vigilant, we did not follow it, and you The commission does not include this item.”

"Just in case, my assistant drew their faces. Are they the private detectives you commissioned?"

Having said this, Raymond looked at Angel with doubtful eyes. "No, I only entrusted you..."

Angel took the portrait and took a look, and immediately understood that one of the two rough sketches was the male "Nighthawk" she saw on the street outside Lily Granger's house when she went to Lily Granger's house. Although they only met once, But because of the other person's identity, Angel still remembered his appearance.

The other one was even more familiar. It was Luo who had traveled from Backlund to Tingen City to escort the sealed artifact "2-049" to help the Tingen team capture Riel Bieber and find the Antigonus family notes. Luota, she is also a member of Backlund's Nighthawks team and is the "gravedigger" of Sequence 8.

When Angel saw the former at the door of Lily's house, he suspected that Backlund's Nighthawks were using Lily to "fish" and try to find the person behind the threatening letter. Now he saw another acquaintance also following her, asking her to Confirmed this.

"I know them. They are from Silveras Field. They may have received a report and are also guarding the man who sent the threatening letter."

Angel couldn't expose the Nighthawks, so he made up an identity to explain the origins of the two Nighthawks.Of course, this is not a complete fabrication. The Nighthawks do have the title of Inspector of Backlund.

"The police were involved? So why did you hire us?"

This explanation made Detective Raymond even more confused.

"Because I don't trust Silveras Field. They are arrogant and inefficient, and they don't bother to explain the progress of the case to the victims. To be honest, compared to them, I trust private detectives who are paid to do things and act efficiently."

"Oh, yes... they have always been like this. In the recent serial murder case that has caused a lot of controversy, Silverfield has not caught the murderer for two months. In the end, several experienced detectives were able to analyze the identity and identity of the murderer. The murderer was caught based on the murder pattern, and several detectives who made contributions shared the reward of thousands of pounds!"

Angel pretended to have a deep hatred for the police and successfully dispelled the other party's suspicion. The detective even regarded some rumors about the demon murder case as the merits of his colleagues and boasted a little.

Of course, after bragging, he still received a penny more than he should have received. Angel spent another 10 pounds as follow-up fees for the next week, which made her already dry wallet worse.

Fortunately, there will be a gathering of Beyonders held by "Eye of Wisdom" tomorrow. If she can sell some easy-to-sell Sequence 9 formulas there, she can greatly improve her financial situation.

The rally held by Mr. A of the "Aurora Society" is also held on the same night. If you choose to sell the formula, it is obviously easier to do so at Mr. A's rally.But Angel, who had just killed Ms. D and destroyed the Aurora Society's plan, would never dare to appear in front of this divine envoy, even if it was difficult for the other party to see through his multiple disguises.

----

"I didn't expect you to contact me so quickly. Did you get some information?"

The mirror smeared with the potion provided by Laura Swann showed a luxuriously decorated bedroom. The Witch of Joy appeared in front of Angel wearing a silk robe, with her black hair pulled up high, and a lazy look on her face.

It was already late on Friday night. After Angel had been busy all day, making various spells, potions and special bullets, he remembered to have regular contact with this "collaborator". If not, she would have already fallen into a warm bed, and It's not like making this "video call" in a dark basement that is ahead of its time.

"Yes, I heard a lot from Servilia."

In order to show appropriate sincerity, Angel did not wear the "Ring of Madness", but once again used the extraordinary characteristics of the Faceless Man to create the face he showed to the other party that night, and sat in front of the ice mirror and said.

"Very well, I'm all ears."

Laura smiled brightly.
