The red moon returns

Chapter 102 Paid to unlock (second update in the afternoon)

Peeking around, although there were a group of gentlemen and ladies in formal attire, no young aristocratic lady was found among them.

Lynch realized that this Miss Valente might be spying in disguise again, with unknown intentions.

This is the third time that Lynch has sensed this strange object.

The first time was when I met Miss Diana in the city hall, when the Square Incident had just ended.

The second time was after the fire in the archives of the Hall of Order. The carrier turned into an old woman and then went to meet the mountain people hiding in the abandoned factory.

Combined with its story: May My Makeup Never Fade, Lynch guessed that the effect of this strange object was disguise. The old woman and Miss Diana were the same person, which happened to be in line with the information that the Valente family had a close relationship with the mountain people.

And now he is hiding in disguise at the door of the city hall. His intention is obviously the same as his intention to sneak in, and he is preparing to act secretly.

He wanted to peek into Grant's secret, what about her? Want to cause a fire again?

Thinking about it in his mind, Lin Qi covered his face with a newspaper and glanced at the faces of the customers within a three-meter radius.

There were a lot of people around, not counting those walking through, there were seven people just sitting there.

Four men and three women were scattered around Lin Qi.

First of all, excluding men, according to the knowledge in the drama, when disguised, generally people will not choose an image opposite to their own gender. Most gender reversal stories are nonsense. Because there are many instinctive little movements between men and women that are different, and people with a little experience can tell them apart. It is too easy to expose, and almost no one does it.

Then focus on the remaining three women, who happen to be young, middle-aged, and old.

The young women were quickly eliminated, the girl was energetic and expertly fanned gently with her hands. For the eldest daughter of a great noble, her upbringing should have been ingrained into her instincts. It would be difficult for her to make such a rude action so naturally. Well... rule it out.

The remaining two were both ladies, well-dressed and well-behaved, with no flaws visible. Lin Qi was a little embarrassed for a moment, until his eyes swept across the coffee table between the two of them.

In front of the graceful and elegant middle-aged lady, a folding fan is placed on the table. It is exquisite and elegant, suitable for all ages.

The first two times they met, he saw the other person holding a folding fan in his hand. Although he couldn't remember what the folding fan looked like, this element was still very certain. So when he saw the folding fan again, Lin Qi focused on the middle-aged nobleman. On the woman.

Completely incomprehensible complex aristocratic costumes, indistinguishable exquisite makeup, she was the only lady at the table, holding a novel in her hand and reading it carefully. Occasionally when she got tired, she put down the novel, picked up the coffee cup and touched her lips. He looked up towards the city hall for a few glances, then lowered his head again and immersed himself in the world of the novel.

"The Detectives of Moriarty" seems to be the most popular detective novel at the moment, and the information obtained from the Cat Count immediately came to mind.

Diana de Valente, the eldest daughter of Count Valente, a first-aid nun of the Church of the Passion, and a powerful second-level soul-shifter. He is good at medicine preparation and first aid, good at art appreciation and violin playing, and loves reading, especially detective novels.

More and more.

Lin Qi asked in his mind: 'Neighbor, this person is a soul changer. ' 【Um. 】

Although low-level soul-shifters cannot stimulate inspiration to produce special reactions, Ms. Luna can actually tell the difference. She was able to tell the difference the first time she met Officer Natalie.

Looks like it's her, Diana de Valente.

Lin Qi, who was behind the newspaper, licked his lips, thought for a moment and then made up his mind, got up and walked towards the other party.

I originally wanted to use her as a springboard to understand the movements of the mountain people, and now was a good opportunity.

There is nothing to be afraid of. The other party has an official status, but he also has one. In this era, there is already a city council, and nobles can no longer decide the life and death of civilians at will. From the perspective of the extraordinary realm, although the other party has the old mountain people and the Church of Suffering behind him, he also has the support of a super strong person who is legendary in high-end circles. Judging from the reaction of the old mountain people when they met in the morning, the other party is still wary. .

Therefore, as long as he controls his methods, Lynch is not worried that the other party will suddenly turn against him, or use some mysterious means to carry out a fatal attack like Randall did before.

Then use the methods of the civilized world to solve the problem.

"Good afternoon, madam." Lynch took off his cap and bowed with a smile, "I wonder if I have the honor of sitting across from you?"

The middle-aged lady raised her head from the novel, looked at Lynch with her chin in her hands, and showed a gentle and reserved smile. Her voice was gentle and low, giving people a sense of peace:

"Sorry, sir, you didn't."

"What a pity." The corners of Lynch's mouth twitched slightly, and he nodded with a half-smile. He moved the chair opposite the lady to the side, and then sat down calmly, "Then I can only sit next to you, Valente. Miss."

The gentle expression remained, but the lady gently put down the detective novel, picked up the folding fan on the table, covered her mouth, and said softly: "How did you recognize him? Mr. Lynch Leviev."

Hiss, this woman is difficult to deal with. Lynch waved to the waiter, ordered a cup of coffee, and then said calmly: "You are challenging the observation and analysis skills that a detective relies on for a living, madam."

"Oh? Is there something wrong?" Playing with the folding fan, Miss Valente's eyes became more curious.

"Both the dress and behavior are standard aristocratic style, but there are no maids, attendants or butlers around. This is against the rules. No servant dares to leave the mistress at will unless they are thrown away. And throwing away a servant This kind of thing is not surprising for a young aristocratic girl, but if it is a mature and stable middle-aged lady, it will be essentially different, involving many troublesome reputation issues. If you are really like the person you play A lady should not not consider her own reputation and that of her family, unless the reputation of this lady does not need to be considered, because she does not exist at all. So in my opinion, you are like announcing loudly that there is a problem with my identity."

Lynch was speaking faster and faster, but Miss Valente seemed to understand. She stopped playing with the folding fan, looked a little surprised, looked at Lynch intently and nodded: "Then what?"

It's easy to handle if you're interested. Lynch immediately fired up and made up a whole set of theories on the spot:

"It would be fine if they were just attendants, but it would be strange not to have bodyguards or guards. There can be other explanations for not having servants, but in a square where a tragedy just happened, there are no bodyguards. This is not willful but right. She is irresponsible and does not conform to the cautious characteristics of a noble. Unless she does not need the protection of ordinary people at all, she herself is a soul changer."

"There are not many soul-shifters among the nobles, and you have some very strange smells on your body, which are very similar to the occult materials used to prepare medicines. This reminds me of the characteristics of suffering believers... The subsequent content can only be unlocked after paying. , Miss Valente.”
