33 Information and secrets

Seeing the group of people leaving, the remaining people in the room were relieved. Including the female detective, there were only three people in total, two men and one woman, and there were six on the other side. Fortunately, these three people were good, otherwise they would have been beaten down long ago.

"Thanks!"

Motivating his companions to sort out the messy office, the heroic female detective came to Charles, looked at the group of people leaving outside, and said, "These people are relatives of the bald policeman. I investigated them in depth, but they accidentally provoked him."

"I feel very sorry." Said that, Charle had no apology on his face.

The two of them are completely in employment. Since Charles spent money, they just need to wait for the result. What mistakes happen in the middle of the process are not his business - it is not a relationship.

"If a lady is more ladylike, I might think I am saving the beauty in a hero." He looked at the female detective with a trace of purple on his face and said half-jokingly.

"Will lady do this?" The female detective chuckled, then motioned for Charles to sit down and talk. She found the kettle from the messy venue and poured Charles a cup of black tea: "Are you here to ask about the result?"

"Yes, how was the investigation?"

"Wille Rosen, 46 years old, served as the chief lieutenant of the Royal Navy Bluebird in Dulin Royal Navy, with the rank of lieutenant. After retiring, he was invited by Peeta Mayor Feglin to serve as the sheriff of the Peeta City Police Department. He currently lives in..."

Without seeing any manuscript, the female detective seemed to know everything and spit out all the information continuously.

Charles listened quietly without interrupting her words.

So after talking about the bald sheriff, she began to talk about other investigation results.

"There is nothing particularly important in Canyon Town recently, except for the local mayor who married his third wife and the youngest son of the blacksmith family who left the town to go to the big city for development, and ended up becoming a miserable begging and returning."

"In the distance, they had blocked and drove an alien baron heir to enter the castle," said the female detective, looking at Charles intently, but did not see any special changes on his face, so he continued: "It is said that this is because the local people believe that there is a sleeping demon hidden in the castle, and anyone entering will awaken it and start killing."

“The church has not acted on this?”

"Have it, but nothing has been found."

"So someone is causing trouble again." Charles curled his lips secretly.

Ignoring Charles' displeasure, the female detective said to herself: "Madame Baron Rhein was born in a great noble family in the capital. She inherited the family business of a cousin of her mother in her early years. She never married her for a sudden heart attack. When she died, there was no one around except a girl adopted two years ago. She usually likes..."

...

"I heard that Mrs. Rhine seemed to be trying to treat her adopted daughter some time before her death."

The last sentence of the detective was still echoing in his ears. After coming out of the detective, Charles fell into deep thought.

But from this information, he could only see that the villagers in Canyon Town were instructed by someone, and there was nothing useful, but Charles could understand his own situation.

"Maybe a church is needed?" Thinking of the question of inheriting the title, Charles kept thinking.

Since the church has not found anything, there is probably no so-called demon in it. And those villagers are so xenophobic, they must have been instructed by someone.

Not to mention who is instructed by me, as long as you enter the castle and take out the family token, those who inherit the title will naturally not dare to stop the so-called "outsiders" anymore.

Although the rights of aristocratic people are no longer equivalent to those of lords in the kingdom, there are still many privileges, and these privileges are destined to prevent some ordinary people from rashly provoking aristocratic families, even in the down-and-out aristocratic families.

"After the purification is finished, go to the church and mention this by the way." Thinking of this, he put aside these news for the time being.

His practice of purification mantra was very smooth, and it would probably not take long to be fully proficient, which would be another test at that time.

Will the use of spiritual words directly in reality be subject to such attacks? Shire is not sure, but at least half the chance. If this half chance is not, then think about how to escape as soon as possible, let alone the question of inheriting titles.

After leaving the detective office, he did not return home, but walked directly to the watch shop.

It was still the old man wearing monocle glasses who was still receiving him. There seemed to be no one else in this small shop except him.

After a little greeting, Charles took out the black crystal and placed it on the table.

"Elemental crystallization?"

The old man picked it up and started observing, but without looking closely, he came to the conclusion.

"This thing is used for many purposes, including ritual magic, auxiliary casting, enchanting alchemy, and inscribed secret texts to form crystal tools, etc."

"Is it valuable?" Charles asked impatiently.

"It doesn't have much high-end functions, but because it produces very little, it's still valuable. If you want to sell it, I can buy it at a price of one pound and three pounds. If you want to use it yourself, you must have a set of suitable secrets."

"Secret text?"

"The secret text is the knowledge that the casters focus on. It is a magical text that you can't touch yet, but-"

"You give me this thing, and I'll give you a complete set of secret texts that you can use now."

Before the old man could finish his words, a loud words suddenly came from behind. He turned to see a brown-black-skinned alpine man walking in.

The Gaoshan people are similar to the black people in Charles' memory. They are tall and have black skin, but they are not particularly black, and can basically be called wheat color.

The approaching alpine man was dressed in luxurious clothes and had a fat figure. His bare cheeks were covered with flesh, and his corresponding eyes looked particularly small. Now he was staring at the crystal in Charles's hand with those little eyes.

He should be a regular here, but the boss here didn't give him any good looks

"Eddie, don't think I don't know what you meant. This kid is from the church."

"Church?" Hearing this, the guy named Eddie flashed with disappointment on his face: "Then forget it, the people in the church can't afford to offend him."

He said, following the corridor on the side of the counter of the watch shop, and Charles suddenly stopped him: "Do you have a supporting secret?"

"Of course." Eddie looked at him with no interest.

"Can you exchange it? The kind you just said."

"Normal transactions? Then you have to get at least ten dollars."

"Ten?" Charles turned his head and looked, and the boss shrugged.

After thinking a little, he said, "Where am I looking for you?"

Seeing his reaction, the guy named Eddie looked at Charles with interest, and then he said, "Just tell the old man here."

After saying that, he pushed the door and walked into it, leaving Charles's sight.

Seeing Charles thinking, the old man behind the counter shook his head gently: "I'm not sure what you have to do with the church, but the one who just now is definitely not a good person. If you are not a real person in the church, it's better not to trade with this person."

As he said that, the old man suddenly asked curiously: "What is your relationship with the church? New members?"

"Maybe they asked me to practice a spell called purification," Shire shrugged, "What do you think this means?"

"That's obvious." The old man replied, looking at Charles for some reason, a hint of pity was hidden.

Charles didn't notice this, but he didn't stop his words and said to himself: "It's a pity that I practice very slowly. I always encounter inexplicable sounds from time to time, which makes people very irritated."

"That's called the Voice of Ulm. Anyone who learns the magic of the church must undergo its test. When you are completely familiar with the spell, it will not appear again." The old man replied.

"Totally familiar?" Seeing that this person seemed to have a certain understanding of the church, Charles couldn't help but mention the nature.

"It's after instantaneous conversion."

"Will there be a special way to skip this process directly?"

The old man shook his head: "That's impossible. Can you become a master of swordsmen without training? In terms of truth, your spirit is the same."

“So we chant mantras like constantly training?”

"Yes, the spell was completely abandoned in the end."

"How do you cast spells without spells?"
