Chapter 1250(1/2)

 Chapter 1251 The sky is full of daggers

In the salons of Paris, in addition to young people talking about politics, there are composers who create music, writers who are proficient in poetry and prose, mathematicians, economists, and mystics.

The vampire Giovanni took Severus to a luxurious apartment that was dark even in broad daylight. People in the living room were eagerly discussing everything about Ms. Cassandra.

As a well-known prophet, Ms. Cassandra will have many people who want to visit her wherever she goes, but she only meets a few people. They gathered here today hoping to let her students see if they have this ability.

Qualification is a bit like an interview.

In addition, some people are discussing the strange things that have happened in the city recently. Many people once saw a huge bat flying at night. Usually this urban legend is the same as the five-foot-long centipede in the sewers of Paris.

, everyone just thought it was a joke, but the atmosphere now is a little different.

After President Bonaparte took office, people's lives have indeed improved. Not only do they not have to worry about bread, but there is also a lot of meat to eat. He built many slaughterhouses and large markets in the capital. Almost every night when the big bat appears,

Livestock in slaughterhouses and big markets will die.

They were originally waiting to be slaughtered, mainly because the way they died was too strange, either their blood was sucked dry, or they seemed to be exploded by bombs, but no one heard any explosion sounds.

No one dares to eat that kind of meat, not even the meat of animals that are kept together with those animals. Some people claim that it is caused by black magic, just like the Black Death was caused by black magic.

It is very likely that a plague will break out in Paris this year.

People were panicked for a while. The secret police posted notices everywhere, and newspapers also explained that the tragic deaths of the animals were related to the gas produced by them digesting plants, but this did not work at all.

The charm of occult science lies in its mystery. The more mysterious something is, the more people like to talk about it, imagine it, and speculate about it.

The vampires and dark wizards who caused this panic discussed the matter with others as if nothing had happened.

If he could be forgiven for taking away wives and daughters, then Tiberius would no longer be a tyrant. In the past, Napoleon Bonaparte was criticized for taking a British mistress. Later, people learned that this British woman had a husband, that

The poor man tried to save his wife, but was driven away by Bonaparte's soldiers and secret police.

Fortunately, he knew how to avoid suspicion and sent the woman to a monastery. But a scandal is a scandal after all. He had done similar things in Egypt before, but Cairo was far away from Paris and the news did not come back. This time it happened in Paris

, so many celebrities at that time saw it with their own eyes.

The generals under him also lived a very luxurious life in their respective manors. The tableware they used were all made of gold. In the past, people thought that Napoleon Bonaparte was not the same as them.

No matter what kind of person he is, he cannot withstand discussion. It is certain that Bonaparte's reputation has been damaged, although his original intention was to use Jenner to make his reputation even higher.

There were also those who sympathized and understood him. After all, Josephine was wrong first, and she didn't see how close he was to the British woman. Maybe it was a misunderstanding. However, this voice was quickly covered up by the mainstream voice.

It's past.

The one in Egypt can be called Little Cleopatra, and what should the one in England be called? In short, the speed at which romances spread is definitely faster than the speed of industry-university-research research reports, and the issue of cowpox has been ignored.

The so-called risk-taking means that one can injure one's own one thousand but also injure the enemy eight hundred. Now, if Napoleon were still swaggering through the city in a luxurious carriage, not only might he not be welcomed by the people, but he might also be thrown rotten eggs.

Don't talk about wisdom with the crowd. If the crowd had wisdom, Isaac Newton wouldn't have lost so much money in the South China Sea incident.

The crowd is emotional and unconscious, just like when the charge horn is blown on the battlefield, the cavalry division will raise its Mamluk sword and charge bravely.

Soldiers have completely different views on the matter of the First Consul, but they will not appear in salons where literati gather, and their voices will not be heard by people in other circles.

"Mr. Smith, Mr. Ferrari, it's your turn." At this moment, the door that had been closed suddenly opened, and an Oriental woman stood at the door.

Severus stared at her.

Before Nagini completely turned into a snake, she had left many photos, most of which were taken during performances. Voldemort would sometimes stroke Nagini's snake head while talking to her in Parseltongue.

.

The oriental woman in front of me looks a bit like Nagini.

But he didn't say anything and entered the small room with Mr. "Ferrari". If Giovanni had known how famous this last name would be in the future, he probably wouldn't have used it as his pseudonym.

There is only one table in the room, which is covered with a spiderweb-like lace tablecloth. There is a dark blue velvet tapestry behind the tablecloth, so the crystal ball on the table is particularly conspicuous.

"Please sit down." Lady Cassandra's disciple said to the two of them.

Giovanni and Severus sat down in the armchairs opposite the woman.

"What did you two bring?" the Oriental woman stared at them and asked.

Severus and Giovanni looked at each other, and each took a dagger and put it on the table.

There were two daggers, one was a golden dagger belonging to King Camos I, and the other was a dagger that should have belonged to Ahmose. The Eastern woman glanced at the two daggers and focused her attention on Severus.

"I often see jewellery, jewelry, items that are often worn by the deceased, but this kind of murder weapon is really rare."

"Do you know where they come from?" Severus asked with a smile.

The woman who looked like Nagini first picked up the golden dagger with both hands, and then closed her eyes.

She rolled her eyes for a moment as if out of body, and then suddenly dropped the dagger on the table.

"This is the king's dagger." The woman stood up in surprise.

"It's not the king, it's the pharaoh." Severus put away the dagger. "What did you see, medium?"

"The blood of the king flowing out of the body will inevitably bring a curse. You should be careful." The Eastern woman said, "It is tempting you to do illegal things."

Severus sneered.

"What about this one?" Giovanni pushed the other dagger in front of the woman.

"The water will wash away the blood, but it will also turn red." The woman stared at Giovanni and said, "You should not get involved in human grudges."

Both of their faces turned serious.

"Leave." The woman said to them seriously, "Otherwise I will call the police."

"Tell me one last question, which king bleeds?" Severus asked.

"What you just said was Pharaoh. I remember you pronounced it like this. He wanted you to kill the person who invaded his land, so he lent his power to you. I can't tell you who the bleeding king is, otherwise fate will curse you.

Me." The woman stared at Severus and said, "Let's go quickly, unknown person."

Severus and Giovanni, who had only sat down for less than a minute, picked up their daggers and stood up.

The Oriental woman locked the door immediately after they left.

"I have a guess, what do you think?" Giovanni said, staring at Severus' dagger.

Severus said nothing and left the salon with Giovanni.

==================================================

It would be unethical to wash the feet of millions of people in the future, but Pomona did it anyway.

The water of the Ourcq River was not completely crystal clear, but at least it was much better than the turbid water of the Seine River. There were many small fish in the river, and she fed them with bread crumbs.

"Do you know how much bread costs per pound now?" Napoleon lay on his side on the picnic blanket. There was only simple food in front of them, not even meat.

"I know that a worker can barely afford bread with a month's salary, but if these fish don't eat fat, how can I eat fish meat?" Pomona said, throwing another piece of bread down. "Nature makes humans become omnivores.

There is a reason, because we have survived until now by eating everything and have not been eliminated by nature."

"You said you were not human." Napoleon ate the baguette with jam.

"Can you not mention this?" she said in a bad mood.

"Then why did you mention your husband just now?" He said expressionlessly.

"I'm dating you. If he finds out, he'll feel the same as you did just now."

He was silent for a while and asked, "Do you think this is a date?"

"Help me untie the shackles." She pulled on the sleeves of his coat and said, "I need strength. The countryside is not peaceful recently."

"You can go back to Paris and continue to live in the Grand Trianon."

"No."

"why not?"

"You will definitely sneak into my bedroom. I told him you never touched me."

He showed an obviously dissatisfied look.

"Although I don't know what he did, at least he didn't completely lose his mind, otherwise he might have destroyed the whole of Paris."

"Just him?" Napoleon looked disdainful.

"Just him." Pomona said calmly, "In the future, there is a dark wizard named Grindelwald who almost destroyed Paris. Don't think I am so weak. You don't know what a powerful wizard can do.

Pompeii was destroyed by a curse."

"Pompei was swallowed by a volcanic eruption."

"I know that he can make volcanoes erupt, and he has other weapons." Pomona thought of the dagger sacrificed to the Nile. If Severus used it to flood the Seine, how many people would be drowned?

?

"You want to scare me away?" The lion in the wilderness said majestically while prostrate.

"I thought you would listen to good advice."

He threw the uneaten bread on the tablecloth and jumped into the water with his boots on.

The water is not deep because it is naturally formed, not artificially dug like a canal, and has a gentle slope.
