Whispering Verse
Chapter 985: power of crowds
"I can't find it directly now. I am a character in the story now, and I don't have subjective initiative. Moreover, if I directly open the cabinet or lift the bed to face the thief, he will choose to escape. In the case of strong, strong , Even if I can use my strength, I may not be able to catch it."
【So what are you going to do? 】
"I want it to come to me actively, and then I will launch a shameless sneak attack."
"She" chuckled, and didn't ask Xia De how to do it.
Shad tore that page out of the notebook, and then tore it into three parts, with each one clearly written to whom.
He stood up from the sofa and said in an exaggerated tone:
"Oh, looks like I'm going to the police gentlemen for help, it's too dangerous to be in a burglarized home."
As he spoke, he raised his right hand towards the door, and three notes flew silently towards the stairs. Doctor Schneider didn't even use spells. The strong mental power of the six-ring warlock directly pulled the three notes and flew over. He saw that the names were written on the folded notes, so he divided the notes, and the three watched them separately. , take action separately.
"I'm going to change clothes in the bedroom first, it's really cold tonight."
Saying that, Xia De walked into his master bedroom and closed the door.
The gas-lit living room was quiet again, and the master bedroom heard the sound of the wardrobe being opened. Then there was the muffled sound of clothes racks colliding with each other and clothes being thrown on the bed.
The kitchen cupboard was opened silently at this time, and a short, medium-sized man in a black windbreaker came out of it without a sound. He is wearing a hat, and his face is shadowed from every angle. After landing, he listened carefully and confirmed that the owner of the house in the bedroom was still changing clothes, so he came to the living room with Shad's antique knight sword, took another look at the master bedroom with the closed door, and then walked out of the room holding his breath.
Entering the corridor on the second floor, instead of going down the stairs, he went to the third floor, obviously thinking that it was not safe to leave through the main entrance. But just as he reached the fifth step, he stopped abruptly. It raised its head, and clearly saw the old man with scorched wings spread out behind him standing in the dark on the corner platform of the stairs leading to the third floor.
Although "Jack the Thief" is strong when he encounters the strong, he also has his own limit, otherwise he would not be drawn into the story by the angel-level relic [Dice Stories Collection]. When it encounters a strong enemy, it usually does not tend to attack but flees, so after seeing Priest Augustus, it turned around and fled back to the second floor.
Still did not choose to escape to the first floor, but tried to go to Room 2 on the second floor along the corridor. But just past the door of Room 1, he saw a man with his hands behind his back standing at the end of the corridor. Dr. Schneider stood at the boundary between light and shadow, half of his face was illuminated by the gas lamp, his eyes showed a strange scarlet light.
The darkness squirmed behind the doctor, as if something more terrifying was lurking in the thick darkness. [Thief Jack] turned around again, unable to move on the second floor, unable to go to the third floor, this time it finally chose to go to the first floor.
The sound of going downstairs was silent, but there were still people on the stairs going down.
Leiziya's life ring was spinning behind her at a high speed. On the left stood the match girl holding a bamboo basket, and on the right stood the sleeping princess holding a spindle.
Mia stood on the shoulders of the blonde girl, and the princess held the [Night Watchman] in both hands, looking at the strange humanoid creature coming down the stairs as if facing a big enemy.
Rao had already anticipated the horror of a sage-level humanoid relic, but when this thing that clearly looked like a human being, but her intuition kept reminding the other party that it was definitely not human, appeared in front of her eyes, Leizia took a step back carefully.
The night watchman in her hand did not emit light, which proved that the other party could not be judged as an evil creature. Rezia bit her lip and aimed her sword at it, trying to force it back to the second floor.
But unlike being forced back by Priest Augustus and Doctor Schneider just now, this time the thief did not turn around directly, but hesitated standing on the top of the stairs.
"Sure enough, you still have to show your strength to force it back."
With Shard's cat on her back, the Cavendish princess prepares for a head-to-head encounter with the Sage-class humanoid relic. The flow of the spirit made the body of the fairy-tale character who was summoned around her more solid. She stepped up a step, and the angel-level relic in her hand made the sage-level relic in front of her retreat by one level, but she still did not turn around and return to the second floor .
At this moment, Leiziya actually vaguely heard footsteps coming from behind her, and before she could turn around to confirm who was coming, a hand stretched out from behind Leiziya, and together with her, they held the [Night Watchman 】:
"[My heart is clear, the sword cuts the devil]."
The standard Fourth Era Common Language was read out by Luvia, and the purple-eyed girl with brown shawl and short hair came to Leizia's side. The silver sword light shone on the surface of the silver sword, and the runes on the sword body were lit up in orange.
Luvia and Rezia stood side by side, and as the sharp light seemed to be slashing upwards, [Jack the Thief] was finally forced back to the second floor.
"Luvia, you... oh, thank you so much, I'm in a bad state, otherwise I can do it myself."
The princess made Princess Shenmian and the match girl disappear, and was supported by Luvia while panting. The female fortune teller glanced at Mia on her shoulder:
"Don't be brave, what did you do just now? Why is your mental power exhausted so much? I have potions here... Also, do you need to thank me? In this house, we can also be regarded as sisters."
Rezia's face turned red, she didn't know what to think of. She took the mint-flavored potion and drank it in small sips. Luvia said again:
"Has Shade not finished this matter yet? I have been waiting in the Prophet Association for a long time, so I rushed here."
She walked up with Goldilocks, and at the foot of the stairs they met Priest Augustus and Dr. Schneider, who were coming upstairs and from the other side of the corridor.
Both the old priest and the middle-aged doctor were surprised by Luvia's appearance, but then they were not particularly surprised. After all, theoretically speaking, everyone here should not be here tonight.
The Thief Jack, who was wearing a black windbreaker, was standing at the door of Room No. 1. Seeing four people surrounding him, he retreated decisively back to Room No. 1 on the second floor. His footsteps still made no sound.
But when it re-entered the room and turned to look at the window, what greeted it was a fist and an angry scolding:
"Oh, you **** thief! How dare you show yourself!"
[Mortal Luck] Shade Hamilton, enter the final battle stage.
“[Mortal’s luck] Shade Hamilton returned home and immediately discovered the theft. Roll the dice to determine whether the stolen item is found. If the points exceed 90 points, then any subsequent transactions will be made. [Thief Jack] gets a bonus of 20 points when making judgments."
"I want to declare!"
The Prophet Association, Iluna under the light looked at the parchment in her hand:
"Because of Hamilton's characteristics [I love my family], any judgment made in No. 6, Plaza de Saint Teresa will get a coefficient of 1.2 times the total value."
The people around took a breath and thought of the rumors about the house.
lang lang lang~
Iruna read out the numbers:
"55 points. 20 points of symbol points..."
Since it enjoys a coefficient of 1.2 at this time, it is still eight points away. Iluna's eyes quickly flicked over the contents of the parchment, and after Xia De returned to No. 6, Plaza de Saint-Andreens, the information in her hand was half full. For example, the trait of "I love my family" only appeared after Xia De entered the house. From this, the seventeen-year-old girl understood what Luvia often said about Xia De's obsession with that house:
"Special scene bonus-Hamilton Detective Agency, because it is doing detective work, it provides an extra inspiration bonus of 20 points. The total points are 95×1.2=114."
Although knowing that such a simple judgment cannot fail, people still let out a sigh of relief. After all, someone rolled three 1s in a row just now, which shows that everything is possible in the story.
"The detective who returned home keenly discovered that the stolen item was the knight's sword of 'Leggard's Hamilton'. Although the detective was angry that he had been stolen, this anger did not make him have a sharper perception. Find the top criminal hiding in his home. What's next for Shade Hamilton?"
Iluna frowned and thought for a moment:
"Don't give instructions, let him act randomly according to his own ideas."
After talking about being worried about being suspected, I added another sentence:
"The thief must be in the house, but with Hamilton's investigation, he can't be found. Instead of giving him invalid instructions, it's better to wait for the thief to take the initiative. I don't believe he can hide overnight."
After waiting for a while, he was relieved not to hear the companions behind him questioning the decision. The voice in the dark continues to tell the story of the detective and the thief, which is drawing to a close:
"Looking around, constantly pacing, suppressing his complex emotions of panic, guilt, anger, and anxiety, [mortal luck] Shade Hamilton couldn't understand his unlucky luck, and was even more angry at losing his precious status symbol. He suppressed Inner thoughts, sitting on the sofa trying to calm myself down, writing and drawing, finally decided to go to Ridwich Field by myself to call the police."
Everyone was staring at the tabletop setting. After Xia De entered No. 6 Saint-Andrés Square, the original large-area setting disappeared, and now the table area was piled up to look like Xia De's home.
"The detective entered the bedroom and closed the door with his backhand, which will increase his sense of security. Make an extra lucky judgment, if it is higher than 350 points, you will find the sound of the thief walking in the living room."
lang lang lang~
"The judgment was successful. The detective who was changing his clothes was keenly aware of footsteps outside the door. He decided to go out of the bedroom to have a look. Note that since the gun bag was thrown on the desk, this weapon cannot be used in the next session. "
There was a sigh behind Iluna, but the seventeen-year-old girl knew ~www.readwn.com~ that Xia De deliberately didn't take it.
"The night was slightly cold, and panic occupied the heart of the young detective. He didn't know that the faint footsteps outside at this time were just his hallucinations, or that they were criminals who had not yet left. The weird and strange monster image that haunts urban legends seems to flash behind that door."
Iluna thinks this kind of psychological description feels funny.
"He stretched out his hand and pushed open the door of the bedroom. The familiar and warm home seemed extremely strange at the moment. Even though the light of the gas lamp was shining here, he still had difficulty convincing himself that everything was very strange when he took the first step. normal."
"Did Jack the Thief be found? Should a judgment be made?"
Iruna asked, and the hoarse voice telling the story responded:
"Shad Hamilton came to the living room and checked the living room, which actually had no clues. He found nothing, and then carefully came to the door of Room 1 on the second floor."
The voice paused insignificantly, and then said immediately:
"Shad Hamilton and [Jack the Thief] face-to-face, and the battle begins."
Almost everyone held their breath, only Iluna sighed, and the story finally came to an end.
-----Off Topic-----
ps: In fact, there are not many opportunities for the five members of the group to take action together. After all, the five members together have almost no weaknesses. This is the only occasion where five people can appear together in one event.
Of course, at the end of this volume, after Xia De enters the central ring, he will face more dangerous things, and the five members of the group will act together more frequently.
At the end of this volume, who will participate in the decisive battle at the end of the volume. By the way, you can guess where the final battle of this volume will be without prizes.
