Dorothy's Forbidden Tome

After a preliminary understanding, Dorothy understood that this kind of crucifixion-like dress seemed to be popular in this era, but fortunately, Dorothy was not old enough to wear this kind of dress to attend social occasions. Although the current body is a dress, it retains a lot of "children's clothing" designs.

"Young age also has its advantages. At least you don't have to suffer with those aunts. Besides, I'm not here to socialize..."

After complaining, Dorothy began to wait quietly for the party to start.

As more and more participants took their seats, the spacious venue gradually filled up. As time went by, after Dorothy sat down for more than ten minutes, it was finally time for the party to begin.

At seven o'clock on time, the band that had been in place for a long time began to play music. As the ensemble music spread throughout the space, everyone who was talking in the venue gradually quieted down. They knew that the music was the signal for the opening.

The melodious music slowly stopped after telling the opening, and then, a man in a tuxedo walked onto the stage in front of the curtain, faced the stands in front, cleared his throat and announced loudly shouted.

"Good evening, all benevolent ladies and gentlemen!" To meet the opening of the host, there was applause in the venue. After the applause faded away, the host opened his arms and continued to shout with enthusiasm.

"Once a year, we gather here again in the light of Our Lady's love. As in the past, the gathering of everyone's love today will be a bright light for the future of the poor people in Igwent. Your enthusiasm will be forever remembered.

"First of all, let us routinely thank the initiator of this grand event, the warmest flame in Igwinter, Viscount Ian Field!"

While talking, the host stretched his hands to a separate private room located high in the stands, and then almost all eyes in the venue looked there, and then there was another round of applause.

In the private room where the gazes gathered, a grey-haired old man in a suit, around five or sixty years old, smiled and took off his hat to greet the audience. Beside him were a man and a woman in exquisite children's clothing, Eight and nine-year-old children also smiled and waved.Behind them is an old man who is also in his fifties, with a goatee, wearing a tuxedo, carrying a cane, and dressed as a housekeeper. He is silently watching the thunderous applause in front of him. Greet the owner with a wave of his hat.

'Is that Viscount Field?At first glance... it seems that there is no problem. '

Sitting on the row of seats in the distance, Dorothy looked at the scene in the private room in the distance and thought, and she did not see anything unusual after just a cursory look.

"Maybe I'm overthinking...it's better to be like this..."

……

"Is that Viscount Field? He has held such a charity event for seven consecutive times."

On the other side, in the exclusive private room of the members of the Radiance Cult, Vanya, dressed in a nun's attire, looked at the old man waving in the distance and said curiously, and the accompanying staff around her also nodded and said with a smile.

"Yes, this is a well-known benevolent person in Igwent. Such a person can only be born in the place where the Holy Mother taught."

"Ahaha... that's true..."

……

After introducing Viscount Field, the host introduced several important people in turn, and then officially announced the start of the party.

"Then, first of all, please come and enjoy the usual opening performance, the chorus performance brought by the children of the Grace Orphanage!"

Then, the host slowly left the stage, and then the curtain of the stage gradually unfolded, and behind the curtain appeared children in white clothes.

At this moment, they are standing neatly facing the audience row by row on a long ladder box. There is a trace of tension on each of their small faces, and everyone is wearing performance costumes. .

White clothes, white skirts, cuffs, collars, skirts, hems and other places are decorated with white plush cotton balls. This is the uniform clothes worn by these children. Regardless of gender, all of them wear a small croissant headdress.

Coupled with their white and cotton velvet decoration, it can't help but remind people that this is a lamb.

"The costumes for this performance are well designed...it's quite impressive..."

Looking at the appearance on the stage, Dorothy thought about it. She had already found Anna inside. She was in the middle of the front of the line, shaking her head from side to side, as if she was looking for something in the stands. After seeing Dorothy's figure, she showed a bright smile, and Dorothy also smiled and waved to her.

Finally, after everything was in place, the band in the audience began to play soothing music, and the children on the stage also began to sing at the same time, singing sincere songs with childish voices.

……

"Sheep...sheep...we are lambs...lovely lambs...

"Please let us grow with compassion...please let us run with love...we are lambs...weak lambs...

"Give mercy...kindness is the rain, kindness is the pasture...we are lambs...lambs to care for...

"We are rewarded...we will be rewarded...tomorrow will be better for us...we are lambs...grateful lambs...

"Sheep...sheep...we are lambs

"The Lamb of God..."

……

The chorus of children's voices fluttered in the theater, so everyone was silent in the innocent music for a while. The unique Qinglang, innocence and sweetness of children's chorus made the people present couldn't help but savor it carefully. Children The singing is very neat and consistent, and it seems that it has been practiced for a long time.

Leaning on the chair, Dorothy was also savoring the singing quietly, and was also evaluating the song in her heart.

'Comparing a child to a lamb...is that what the song means?Or is there some other meaning in it? '

Just as Dorothy was thinking this way, the system's voice sounded suddenly.

'Have practiced to the secret biography, "Song of the Lamb" is a fragment, the secret biography is seriously incomplete, and the spirituality contained is extremely weak. It is recommended to find the full version and continue to practice. '

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

In the venue of the Eagle Winter Charity Association, the pure and sweet children's chorus echoed in the space of the theater, and everyone fell silent in the innocent singing.

Wearing a half mask and a theater staff uniform, Bill walked slowly around the edge of the venue, scanning the crowds of audience with his eyes, as if he was looking for something.

What Bill was looking for was the smell, the smell he recorded at the scene of the bloody tragedy at Buck's house that day.

Bill is a Extraordinary of the "Cup", but he also needs to be a little bit special. His promotion ceremony was personally presided over by the adult he is loyal to, and the ceremony he performed was a little different from the regular promotion ceremony.

In the hidden world, even if the accumulated spirituality is the same, there will be relatively different results due to different promotion ceremonies.

After spending an extra cost, Bill was promoted to the subspecies of the Hunger and Thirst, named "Taster".

Tasters are a subspecies of hungerers. Although their physical fitness and vitality are beyond ordinary people, they are still a little far from hungerers. Instead, tasters have obtained some sensory expressions of "cups".

The thirsty person becomes stronger and more tenacious because of the material expression of the "cup", that is, the expression of flesh and blood.The taster's "cup" is not as strong in material expression as the hunger, but has additional sensory expressions.

In terms of senses, "cup" is expressed as smell, taste, sex, pleasure, feeling, etc...

And Bill's promotion brought him an additional sensory expression of smell, so his sense of smell was greatly strengthened, and he was able to distinguish and remember smells that ordinary people could not distinguish.

That day at Buck's house, although Bill didn't make a move, he knew that someone was hiding in the darkness of the collection room, and he recorded the smell in the darkness before leaving.

At that time, because too many people died at the scene and the smell of blood was too strong, the memory process of Bill's smell was disturbed, and it was difficult to distinguish more information from the smell. He could only barely smell that it might be a woman. No further information could be sniffed out, but he still firmly remembered the disturbed scent information.

Then I didn't expect to smell it again today.

Bill walked slowly around the edge of the venue, walking around the edge of the auditorium, trying to capture the smell again, but to no avail. The smell information he wrote down, but the information was disturbed As for the incompleteness, if he wanted to identify it, he had to go close and smell it.

But doing so will be very conspicuous. Even if he is currently a staff member of the theater, it is still a very rude behavior to walk back and forth in the auditorium and sniff one by one, and he will be noticed. , thereby alerting the target.

So, now Bill has to think of some other way to confirm the other party's position without alarming the enemy.

After thinking about it for a while, Bill had an idea.

Then, he walked quickly to the gate of the venue, found a person who was in the form of a foreman, and took off the half mask.

"It's Mr. Bill, do you have any orders?" Seeing Bill's face, the foreman said with a smile, and Bill spoke directly.

"Call together all the waiters and ask them to follow my method to receive the invitation letter from the audience. They say that there is something wrong with the invitation letter, and we need to take it back and check it again."

……

In the venue, the children's singing gradually came to an end. Amidst the warm applause from the audience, the children who looked like lambs bowed to the curtain, and the large red curtain was slowly pulled up again.

In the auditorium, Dorothy also applauded with the audience around her. Although there was a smile on her mouth, her heart was very heavy at this moment.

'"Lamb Song"... Anna and the others sang a secret biography, a secret biography in the form of a song...why is it like this...'

After the prompt from the system just now, Dorothy realized that the chorus she was listening to was actually a secret chorus. Although it was very crippled, and it seemed that it had been adapted to greatly reduce the mysterious elements, it was still a secret chorus. .

After hearing the secret transmission, Dorothy immediately extracted it to become spirituality. Although the extracted spirituality was too weak to accumulate even 1 point, Dorothy could still recognize that it was a "cup".

In other words, "Song of the Lamb" is a secret biography of the "cup", but the version sung by these children has been greatly deleted and adapted, and its purpose... must be to avoid excessive drug awareness Pollution, but also deception.

If it weren't for Dorothy's system's accurate identification, or Dorothy wouldn't be able to find out that this song has such a problem.

"Why is the song that the children of the Charity Orphanage sang at the charity event is a secret biography of 'cup', and according to the previous host, they seem to be singing in chorus every year, and I don't know if it's all the same.Is there a problem with Grace Orphanage?I took classes there for so many days and didn't find anything? '

Dorothy thought suspiciously, but at this time she had not only doubts in her heart, but also a trace of worry.

'There is a secret legend of 'Cup' performing on the stage... No matter what the truth behind the scenes is, this charity has too many problems. Although I mainly came to see Anna and the others perform, I feel a little risky now... '

Thinking of this, Dorothy couldn't help becoming cautious in her heart when she encountered such an unexpected situation, and began to have a little doubt about everything around her.

Then, Dorothy took out a gold coin from her pocket, with the sun engraved on the front and the gold coin with the mark of the Radiance Cult engraved on the back. This is the spiritual storage of the "lamp" she got from Brandon. With this, she will be able to divination.

Now, she needs to use divination to determine the situation around her.

Among the basic divination skills that Aldridge sold to Dorothy, many divinations required rituals to be arranged in advance. Now there is no such opportunity at all. However, there are several very simple forms of divination that do not require rituals.

One of them is to toss a coin.

'Am I in danger right now. '

While saying the divination language in her heart, Dorothy tossed the golden coin as low as possible, and then covered the back of her hand with her hand. After feeling the spiritual consumption, Dorothy slowly removed her palm.

Then, on the back of Dorothy's hand, there appeared a coin that had lost its luster, and the side imprinted with the sun was facing upwards, which was the obverse.

'Huh... really...'

Seeing the appearance of the coin, Dorothy let out a long sigh of relief, then she shook her head, ignoring the host who was introducing the next program on the stage, and settled down to think carefully.

'Danger, danger... What is the danger, where does it come from, what form does it come in...when will it come...'

Dorothy thought about it, and then she realized that she had too little information at this time, then she closed her eyes, and began to think carefully about the echo.

Now, she began to call up her memory, from the time she came to the theater door until now, to see if she could find any clues.

Dorothy is a master, she can completely remember all the perceived information within half a day, even a few weeds on the side of the road. This kind of super memory will gradually disappear into ordinary memory after half a day. A little spirituality can save some important content forever.

Ever since, Dorothy began to carefully examine every detail and every corner of the theater in her memory, even every person she glanced at inadvertently, and every word she heard inadvertently. , trying to extract useful parts from these seemingly meaningless information.

Since Dorothy is a master, she has the ability to read and process information at a very high speed. This ability is also effective when processing memory information, so her speed of flipping through memories is also very fast.

It didn't take long for Dorothy to read an important piece of information in her memory not long ago.

That was the memory when she just stepped into the gate of the theater and walked with the crowd in the corridor behind the gate.

By carefully examining the visual memory at that time, Dorothy discovered that there was a slightly familiar figure among the crowd walking towards her at that time.

It was a theater worker who appeared to be a young man, wearing a half-mask with only his chin showing.

This figure seemed familiar to Dorothy when she looked carefully, and it seemed to have similarities with another figure in her memory.

That was the young man named Bill who rescued Buck at Buck's house that day.

At that time, Dorothy was hiding in the dark, staring at this young man, and by consuming spirituality, she used the ability of a master to record it carefully and completely, comparable to an ultra-high-definition photo.

Now Dorothy felt that the half-masked young man she met in the corridor seemed a little too similar to that Bill.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

In the venue of the theater, the attendees of the party are enjoying the next show on the stage, while Dorothy is meditating deeply at this time.

"It seems... a bit similar..."

Dorothy, who was reminiscing, compared the image information in her memory and couldn't help but think like this. Then she continued to make in-depth comparisons, calling up the two pictures in her memory, and for the key points in each detail. to overlap.

At this time, Dorothy's brain was like a computer running image processing software, and it didn't take long.The comparison of the two images has been completed. The Bill Dorothy met at Buck's house before and the man she met in the corridor before showed similarities in many aspects such as face contour, body proportions, and details of the lower half of the face. A high degree of consistency can basically be identified as a person.

'Bill is in this venue?What is his purpose here?Did the songs those children sang really have anything to do with the Holy Communion?Is he the source of the crisis that the divination said? '

All kinds of thoughts began to linger in Dorothy's mind, and many problems troubled Dorothy's thoughts at the same time. After shaking her head, she decided to ignore other things and think about the main problem at the moment, that is, Bill Might bring about that crisis.

'First of all...you have to figure out what form this crisis came from, so that it can target me.It's either that the Sacramental crisis is too broad to include me, or there's something about me that's exposed and they're noticing me.

'A large-scale crisis like a terrorist attack feels unlikely. Let alone such an action that may attract the attention of the Kingdom Central and even the high-level church. There should also be no power to organize large-scale actions.

'So...could it be where I was exposed...when was it exposed?How much was exposed?Do they now know who I am and where I am? '

Dorothy thought like this, and then began to look around again, carefully checking the surroundings to see if anyone was searching for or monitoring her.

Then, she saw a strange phenomenon. At the edge of the auditorium, there were several theater staff who were collecting invitation letters from the audience row by row, and returned the invitation letter after each row was received. To organize and record.The actions of these staff members made some viewers feel dissatisfied and criticized them aloud. Although those staff members apologized again and again, they still insisted on explaining while accepting the invitation letter.

'Why did you suddenly put away the invitation letter?Didn't you check it when you entered the door?Where is the problem and need to take it back for inspection?Ah, no, you only came to accept the party after it had already started. This is obviously ruining the viewing experience of the audience...'

Looking at the staff members slowly coming over with the invitation letters in the distance, Dorothy thought in her heart that in her opinion, it is not worth the loss to ruin the viewing experience of so many people in order to find a few problematic participants Yes, this charity meeting is not a confidential meeting.

Unless... this problematic participant must be found...even if it destroys the audience's viewing experience, it must be found.

If the upper echelons of this theater are controlled by the Holy Communion, then I am afraid that I am such a character that they must find out...

Combined with the previous inference, these people may search for the invitation letter because they have some way to find me from the invitation letter.

'Then how can they find me just from the invitation letter? It's a divination by means of mysticism?No... If they could do divination, it wouldn't be such a hassle.Perhaps it should be something they can read from the invitation.

'And the information that can be read from the belongings is mostly smell, and only smell can be carried by objects. '

After inferring this point, the chain in Dorothy's mind was connected. She now guesses that the information she exposed is mostly smell, which was exposed when she passed by Bill at that time, the Extraordinary of "Cup" It is not surprising to have items or abilities that enhance the sense of smell, and the purpose of the invitation they are receiving now is probably to read the breath of the original holder from the invitation.
