chapter.64 The taste of witches is really good(1/2)

Holding the photo in his hand and leaning back against the back of the bronze chair, Klein closed his eyes and fell into a divination state of sleep.

He entered a hazy, illusory world. He saw the young man in the photo leading two visitors whose faces he couldn't see clearly into the door. He walked excitedly around the study, introducing himself to the guests about Rose.

Research progress on Er secret texts.

He saw that the study room had a messy layout, and the surrounding walls were covered with papers with twisted words written like insects. It looked like the scene of some weird and weird cult.

He saw the young man proudly showing off his arms tattooed with "mysterious runes" and posing for a group photo under a carefully framed glass frame.

Click, click.

With two shutter clicks and a dazzling flash of light, Klein suddenly exited the dreamland.

"call……"

He ignored the issue of the number of visitors and immediately recalled the wall covered with manuscripts behind him when the young man posed for a group photo.

Although it was only a momentary glance and it was impossible to remember it all, Klein was certain that he had seen the complete appearance of that wall in his dream divination.

This is enough for him as a "divineer".

Suppressing the faint excitement and joy in his heart, Klein calmed down, revealed a blank parchment on the long mottled bronze table, and then wrote a new "divination sentence":

"The text on the paper in the frame."

With the help of the special characteristics of the gray fog, he effortlessly reproduced the words recorded on the piece of paper, Russell's diary, which was carefully preserved by the young man and regarded as a precious collection.

What surprised him was that the text spacing and even the handwriting on this piece of paper were very different from any diary he had seen so far!

This is not like the copies that were repeatedly copied and copied by later generations. Instead, it is close to the records left by people who understand this kind of writing...

In other words, this diary manuscript preserved in the frame is very likely to be the original work of the emperor!

Klein should have been excited, but when he saw clearly what the emperor wrote in the Chinese font that was not very beautiful and could only be called a correct one at best, the expression on his face froze.

"On January 4th, I finally realized the fact, what a bunch of idiots, these Intis nobles and ministers are all brainless idiots! They actually rejected my plan to allocate money to the 'Patriotic Health Movement'

'' application for funds, and said there is no need to waste national fiscal revenue on such a trivial matter! Such a trivial matter... they actually think it is just a trivial matter? This is how epidemic malignant diseases spread. Do they have to wait until they see it?

Only when a terrible infectious disease like the Black Death appears would they regard it as a problem?

Oh, not to mention that the people don’t take baths frequently, even these self-proclaimed noble fools don’t like to be clean! I bet there is a nest of lice and fleas in the wigs on these people’s heads! It really pisses me off!

Oh, I almost forgot, they can go to the priests of the Eternal Blazing Sun to purify and eliminate diseases, but ordinary people have no access to this opportunity..."

After that, the scrawled handwriting became more and more colorful, showing all kinds of classic curse words from the big foodie country. One can imagine the indignation of the writer at that time.

Klein, dumbfounded, turned over the page of parchment filled with curse words. While sighing that the senior time traveler was indeed a man of temperament, he silently took up his pen and sorted out some of the information mentioned in the first half.

In the Tarot session two weeks ago, the diary he got mentioned the "Capital Sewerage and Public Health Improvement Plan", but then he looked through Intis's history textbook and found nothing about the "Capital Sewerage and Public Health Improvement Plan".

Similar text descriptions were found during the reign of .

The Emperor's "Patriotic Health Movement" turned out to have failed before it even started... No wonder it didn't leave a record in history.

I wonder if the current capital of Intis still maintains the dirty and messy appearance it had more than a hundred years ago. Just thinking about such a scene is terrifying.

Well, one more thing, the emperor mentioned that the priests of the Eternal Sun Church can purify people and eliminate diseases... The sequence path mastered by the Eternal Sun Church, the "Sun" potion, does not seem to have this ability at low sequences.

That may be something that only high-sequence Beyonders on the "Sun" pathway can do.

And then there is...

Klein glanced at the black-and-white photo on the long table and felt that he might have guessed the reason why the other party chose those two words as the tattoo design... Well, forget it, no one can understand the "Rosell Secret Text" anyway.

, this gentleman will never want to know what he has tattooed on his body...

He rubbed his eyebrows in a funny way, suppressed his emotions, and wrote a new sentence on the back of the parchment that reproduced the "original diary":

"This diary is an authentic work left by Emperor Russell."

After taking out the pendulum and reciting the divination sentence silently seven times, Klein opened his eyes, saw the still pendulum connected by the chain in his hand, and exhaled softly:

"The prerequisites are not sufficient. I haven't personally come into contact with the real thing...or am I unable to divine it at my current level..."

In any case, the amount of information provided by this suspected original diary to Klein was not very large, which made him feel relaxed and a little disappointed.

But he quickly cheered up, straightened his back and left the chair:

"Besides this diary, there are other manuscripts taped to that wall!"

There are more than ten manuscripts in which the text can be read clearly!

There are definitely valuable words here!

Klein did not rush to copy all the diaries in one go. Instead, he tapped his fingers on the long table, thought about it, and then picked up the black and white photo.

He was a little concerned about Alice's reason for taking this photo.

Why is it that except this photo, which is a portrait, the rest of the photos are landscape photos?

Could it be because of the so-called "Roselle Secret Text"... No, he didn't remember that Alice had shown any interest in the "Rosell Secret Text". They had never even discussed the topic of Russell!

This is why he likes to be with her... well, correct me, this is also the reason why he is willing to show off some jokes and classic quotes in front of her.

Because Alice would never say something shocking after listening to it: "The words spoken by Emperor Russell are really full of philosophy."

But since the possibility of her being interested in "Roselle's Secret Text" has been ruled out, the more Klein looks at the photo in his hand, the more inconsistent it becomes, as if...as if it was deliberately arranged to appear in front of him.

!

And why, the diary framed in the center of the photo happened to be the second chapter of the diary he had read!

What a coincidence!

The more Klein thought about it, the more unnatural he felt, and a terrible guess emerged in his mind:

Alice was also arranged by the mastermind hiding behind the scenes to be involved in a coincidental accident around him? But why, after she went to Backlund...

Moreover, it also involves Russell’s diary! It involves his ability to read this mysterious symbol that “no one can understand”!

If things develop as he imagined, wouldn't it mean that he is a time traveler and that he can read Chinese has been exposed?!

No, no, he can't jump to conclusions yet, he can't scare himself, he should test it with divination first!

Klein calmly picked up the pen, crossed out the original sentence behind the photo, and then wrote again:

“There were extraordinary factors that guided the shooting of this photo.”

After silently and ethereally reciting seven times, he felt the slight pull on the silver chain, lowered his head and opened his eyes to look at the pendulum in his hand.

"Counterclockwise...without the guidance of extraordinary factors..."

In order to make further confirmation, he sat at the top of the long bronze table and pondered for a long time, thinking about trying another way of asking:

"The real reason this photo was taken."

After entering the illusory and distorted vision of dream divination, Klein felt as if he had returned to the messy study again and saw a humanoid figure with a blurred face and illusory outline taking out a portable camera.

The person told the owner of the room that it was the first time she had seen such an alternative and mysterious arrangement and traces, which even reminded her of certain ritual scenes...

The person's voice was vague and uncertain, like damaged audio that had been processed, making it difficult to identify specific features. If Klein hadn't been familiar enough with her, he wouldn't even be able to confirm the true identity of this figure.

Faced with the customer's request, the young man who appeared in the photo enthusiastically and proactively cooperated with her to complete the shooting, and expressed his wish to ask for a copy of the photo from her...

The illusion around him gradually faded away like a tide. Klein leaned back in his chair, relaxed slightly and rubbed his temples.

Everything looks normal, nothing suspicious...

Except for the counter-interference when she divined Alice, I was unable to see her specific appearance... Well, this is not a big problem. This witch has always been very cautious. Divinations that clearly point to her will be interfered with, and those that point indirectly to her will be interfered with.

Hers will also "shield" her personal characteristics.

If I really see her image during divination one day, it will be very strange...

While Klein was complaining silently, he felt that the spiritual energy consumed by his continuous divination on the gray fog was a bit more than expected, so he calmed down, simulated the feeling of falling, brought himself back to reality, carefully removed the blockade of the spiritual wall, and then

Prepare for the final step of executing the plan.

Put the photo in your hand back to its original place.

Taking out his thief-like hands, Klein quietly sneaked all the way to the living room on the first floor in the dark, carefully stuffed the photos back into their original places, and tried his best to restore them to their original state.

Just when he breathed a sigh of relief and was about to turn around and go upstairs, he heard a muffled thud, as if something hit the bay window of the living room!

Startled by the noise in the dark, Klein instinctively reached into his arms to take out the revolver from his holster, but it wasn't until he got empty that he remembered that he didn't go downstairs with a gun at all!

Who would carry a gun while going up and downstairs at home? It would be hard to explain if Benson or Melissa caught him!

Klein emboldened himself and cautiously approached the direction of the bay window. As he gradually approached, he could barely make out a palm-sized black thing falling on the window sill...

Well, it looks like a sparrow.

Before he could get closer, the bird that looked like a sparrow flapped its wings and flew away. So Klein took the opportunity to look out the window a few more times. After making sure that there was nothing strange, he walked back to his room and finally felt

He breathed a sigh of relief.

The night passed like a thief...

He cursed and sealed the room again, walked back four steps back to the gray fog, returned to the head of the mottled long table, and once again let the everlasting gray-white fog envelope him.

"I can probably reproduce the appearance of three to four diaries... I have to leave some energy to finish reading in the gray fog..." Klein crossed his hands, roughly estimated his remaining spirituality, and made a decision.

Just reproduce the contents of the four diaries in the order he saw from left to right and top to bottom!
To be continued...
