Mystery: Days and Nights of Struggle with the Research Society

Chapter 124 Lost Memories

"Even if the contamination is removed, Townsend Neil doesn't have much time left." Sesima said suddenly, looking at the expression on Klein's face.

"What?" Klein turned around suddenly and looked at him unexpectedly with wide eyes.

"He is too old, and he is only Sequence 9. He did not receive much magic potion bonus, but it accelerated his death." Sesima looked at Klein with a calm gaze and said calmly, "The last loss of control would have killed him immediately, but Neil was very lucky and happened to meet the senior deacon who was best at purification within the church, so he saved his life."

"But even for low-sequence Extraordinaries in their prime, almost losing control is an irreversible thing. Even if they are lucky enough not to die immediately, their lives will begin to countdown, unless there is power from a higher level. s help."

"And Neil," said Sesima, "he's too old."

"I understand." Klein was a little disappointed and sad, but he quickly cheered up.

For the already very old Neil, death is not an unacceptable outcome. It would actually be a good thing if he could die and return to the embrace of the goddess.Everyone in the Blackthorn Security Company knows this very well, they just don't want to see Old Neil turn into a monster because he loses control.

"This ending is already very good." Klein exhaled, took a few steps forward, and sat in his seat opposite Sesima.

"I'm glad you think so." Sesima smiled, he raised his right index finger, put it against his nose, and said, "Then let's get started."

Klein nodded confidently. He took a breath secretly and slowly entered a meditative state. He got rid of all kinds of bad thoughts. In this state, he began to accept Sesima's mastery of his potions and mental state. detection.

"very good."

In the quiet night, Klein heard Sesima's magnetic voice with approval. He opened his eyes, and the slightly dim light of the kerosene lamp came into his eyes again, and the peace and silence of the underground surged in again. Come in.

Under the dim light of the underground, Crestel Sesima looked at him with her slightly deep dark green eyes, which were so deep that she seemed to be able to see through the body and see the soul.

"Congratulations, you passed all the tests, and the question-and-answer session will follow."

Having said this, Sesima smiled and looked at him quite casually, "Don't be nervous, this part should be just a formality for you."

"Sulia Auchinleck has vouched for you and admitted that he once taught you the 'acting method'."

He kept the same posture as before, quietly looking at Klein with his back straight, and sighed softly, "With his guarantee, the church will not pursue you."

"Is Suya going to be okay?" Klein asked nervously. He remembered the special attitude towards the 'acting method' within the church and couldn't help but feel a little worried.

All major churches should know about the 'acting method', but even the captain of Sequence 7 has not received any information about this knowledge, and Mr. 'The Hanged Man', as a member of the Church of Storms, obviously did not know about it before.' Acting method'.

Perhaps for the church, the acting method is also a relatively precious knowledge that is not allowed to be spread casually. I had never noticed this because it was too easy to obtain this method. That’s why I accepted the endorsement from my classmate Shengun. He will not be punished for this. Punishment?

If I had known this, I would have figured out a way to get through it myself. With a genius like Ms. Daly as a precedent, I would have said that I got inspiration from Old Neil’s motto and some of Ms. Daly’s unintentional words, and then in the divination club It should be said that he mastered the magic potion without realizing it.

"Don't worry." Sesima stared at him with her dark green eyes for a while, and then laughed easily, "For him, the 'acting method' is not something that must never be passed on to others, but in this regard, the church still has It needs a brief review.”

He pointed out his deliberate temptation just now very calmly and without any intention of concealing his intention.

"Dunn told me that you are a genius with clear logic and keen intuition, and you are also a good teammate who is gentle, kind and trustworthy." Kresty Sesima mentioned it casually and then asked, " Have you shared the 'playing method' with your teammates?"

"Yes." Klein nodded and admitted, "At that time, I became a real diviner in the Divination Club. In the process of truly learning to be a diviner, I summed up some experiences, and Suya After discovering my behavior, he taught me the 'acting method' that can reduce the probability of losing control."

"Because Old Neil suddenly lost control, I was worried about the situation of my teammates. For my teammates who are facing danger together, I hope to help them reduce the probability of losing control, so I can't think of any reason to hide this from them."

Crestel Sesima put down her crossed legs, sat upright, looked at Klein with admiration, and said with a smile, "Your understanding of your companions is better than that of many senior Beyonders."

"Well, your review has come to an end here. I will give you the 'Joker' potion you need in a moment. Of course, you also need to swear an oath on the sacred object and promise not to spread the 'acting method' to others. "Krestey Sesima nodded, leaned forward a little and said, "Well, after you go out later, remember to notify the other nighthawks and ask them to come down one by one. I need to make them swear not to do it. Gaiden acting method.”

"But now." Sesima, with golden brown hair and dark green eyes, stood up, looked at Klein, and said with a smile:

"Nighthawk Klein Moretti, in the name of the goddess, I solemnly inform you that you have passed the examination of the temple."

"Congratulations, with your meritorious deeds, you can now be promoted and become a Sequence 8 Extraordinary!"

Phew, finally passed. But is it so easy to pass?

Hearing Sesima's words, Klein was relieved at first and felt a little happy, but at the same time he felt a little unreal, feeling that this review did not seem to be strict at all.Compared with the background checks of my big foodie empire in later generations, this kind of review by the church is very sloppy. I thought it would be more difficult and longer to investigate family situations and interpersonal relationships.
But that's right, this state should be normal. After all, if I hadn't mastered the 'acting method' and digested the potion too quickly, I'm afraid the church wouldn't have been alarmed at all, and senior deacons wouldn't have been sent. The captain is responsible for promotion.

Moreover, Sir Sesima seems to know the classmate Shengun. It seems that Su Ya has reported this matter to the church. That's why my review is so simple. I just made some confirmations and tested my opinion. The companion's attitude is over
"Your Excellency Sesima, do I need to swear to the goddess next? What should I do?" Thoughts flashed through Klein's mind, and finally he asked with a heartfelt smile on his face.

He can't wait to be promoted to the 'Joker' of Sequence 8.

"This requires the use of holy objects." Crestel Sesima nodded, bent down and lifted up the silver-white box at his feet, showing it to Klein.

"But since all of you members of the Tingen Nighthawks team know the existence of the 'acting method', each of you needs to swear an oath to the goddess, which will take a long time." Sesima touched the piano case Like a silver-white box, he chuckled and said, "So I will give you the 'Joker' potion formula and corresponding materials first."

"Thank you, Your Excellency Sesima." Klein said from the bottom of his heart.

"Praise the goddess!" Crestel Sesima nodded, then he stroked the silver box on the long table, then turned around and moved a few steps, blocking Klein's line of sight so that he could not see it. He took out the formula and materials from the box and placed them on the long table.

Klein took a step forward under Sesima's calm gaze, recalling Old Neil's original demonstration, and prepared the potion with his own hands for the first time.

A moment later, Klein stood in front of the long table, raised his right hand, stared at the cup of potion he had just prepared in his palm, looked at the golden, yellow and red liquid, and slowly exhaled.

If I drink it, I can advance to Sequence 8.
When Klein was being reviewed by Sesima and was about to be promoted to Sequence 8.

Far away in Backlund's villa, Su Ya changed into more formal clothes, sat on the sofa in the study, looked at the messy scrawled note in his hand, and guessed what had just happened.

Just now he opened his eyes in the bedroom and found that his clothes were messy, his sleeves were torn open, there were many papers scattered on the floor, and he was holding a piece of paper tightly in his hand, and the most important thing was— —His Curilal Star is missing.

The place where he originally wore the 'Kuliler Star' happened to have a big hole ripped out, as if someone had roughly torn it away, but he had no memory of it.

Su Ya sat on the sofa with a heavy face, identifying the scrawled Chinese handwriting on the note and confirming that it was something written by himself, but for a moment he couldn't remember when and why he wrote it. Next sentence.

That sentence was, 'Don't let Atil leave Backlund. '

Today is Monday afternoon. According to past habits, he should have stayed at home honestly and waited for the Tarot session at three o'clock in the afternoon. After the Tarot session, he would make some decisions based on the results of the Tarot session. The information adjusts his plans for the next period of time - of course, most of the time he will choose to find some entertainment to kill the remaining time on Monday afternoon and will not do anything else.

But today, Su Ya looked at his pocket watch and saw that it was already past four in the afternoon. Today's Tarot session had ended long ago, but now he only vaguely remembered that he seemed to have been stabbed in the back by 'Justice' during today's Tarot session. , and the fact that 'Sun' Derrick Berg had joined the Tarot Club, the rest was like a thin layer of veil between them, making him unable to remember.

There must be a problem with this.

Su Ya thought.

Even if he is not a 'generalist', as a Sequence 6 Beyonder, he is still famous for his highly inspired 'destiny' path. No matter what, he can't even remember the content of the party he just attended.

And when he woke up, he found that his condition was also very strange - it was as if a thief had sneaked into his room while he was in a meeting and forcibly snatched the 'Kuliler Star' away from him. By the way, It made his room a mess.

But this is even more outrageous. Who can a thief sneak into the Auchinleck home in the center of Queens without alerting others, and also draw inspiration from him without destroying his specially sealed spiritual barrier? The extremely high Sequence 6 person took away a sealed item that was also only at Sequence 6 level.
A thief who really has this ability must be at least at the semi-saint level. How could he come and steal a small Sequence 6 from him?

Su Ya sighed softly. Judging from the existing clues, he guessed that whether it was the loss of the 'Kuliler Star', his sudden amnesia, or the note, it might all have something to do with him. .

Before today's Tarot session started, the 'Kuliler Star' was still on my body, so it was very likely that I had sacrificed it to Mr. Fool to do something. If so, don't worry, there are little ones anyway. Classmate Zhou will be your guarantee and you will get it back sooner or later.

But my memory problem is very serious.
Su Ya held his chin with one hand and began to recall the places where his memory was missing.

First of all, this afternoon, I participated in the Tarot session. I am missing a part of my memory. I didn’t go out this morning. This part of my memory is not important. Then there is yesterday. Yesterday, I went to St. Samuel’s Church to attend mass. After I came back, I read The book in the afternoon has to be said that the magical "Apocalypse of the Night" contains many secret contents, some of which are not mentioned even in the original book.
Then I chatted with Aunt Adeline for a while. By the way, Aunt Adeline's breath seemed to have changed yesterday. I don't know if she was injured. I can ask her later if she needs my help.

Going back further is my encounter with the people from the Rose School of Thought. There was also the man who was suspected of being Atil. Because of this, I also met the people from the Heart of Machinery and the small mirror. The small mirror seemed a little afraid of me. Is it my imagination?
After that, Suya's eyes were a little blank. On Saturday, I seemed to have just chatted with Archbishop St. Anthony and got the book from him. Then I listened to Her Excellency Sesima telling the gossip about Atil for a while. It seems like nothing special happened, right?

Somewhat anxiously, he unbuttoned a few buttons near his neck to make it easier for himself.

But with his movement, an item slipped from the inner pocket of Su Ya's formal suit and fell to the ground with a crisp sound.

That was when Su Ya's eyes were drawn to the thing that fell on the floor.
