"I don't know about any elemental fluctuations at all. Now I think you are doing a malicious search. I will report this matter to the parliament." George was surrounded by a group of arbitration office personnel from the Sheep Team and the Dog Team, and kept explaining.
What, Catalina was also saying something to other members of the arbitration office on the sofa. Even Mrs. Lily, who was in poor health, sat at the dining table and was being interrogated.
All the questions were only related to one thing, and that was the residual elemental power detected in the charity house a few days ago, and things about Arthur. "This is a search warrant personally issued by City Lord Edwards, sir, even if you are a brigadier general
, and you must not disobey this search warrant. The above does show that there are traces of elemental fluctuations near this room. Then we need to find your brother. The previous census of the Planning Bureau showed that his name is Arthur, right? Where is he now?
?Answer me." A lady in a simple uniform stretched out the so-called search warrant in front of George, and George slapped open the search warrant in front of him. If it didn't have a seal, it would be useless paper.
"I don't care about this. If you don't find any clues, wouldn't it disturb the normal life of my family? This is a public institution, funded and helped by the Brighton City Charity Organization. I won't let you stay here day and night.
, Catalina, on my behalf go to No. 291 Goss Street, where the military is located in the North District. I want to see if the so-called arbitration office really dares to directly cause mental harm to the families of military personnel during wartime.
"George grabbed the collar of a person who bumped into the table and lifted it up. He looked at him fiercely and said, "Or...I'll let you see what's going on between the people who stay in the comfortable rear and the people who have been fighting on the front line.
different."
...
"Liqi, tell me slowly, what happened?" Brynn wanted to pull Liqi into the carriage, but Liqi refused. Liqi quickly checked Arthur's clothes, and then looked at Brynn's clothes.
Se, take off your pants and let Sister Brynn wear them, and then find a place to hide yourself. You want to go to a place you have never been to! Sister Catalina guessed that you walked past after waking up.
There will be people from the arbitration office along the route!”
As mentioned before, although Brynn has put on thicker clothes and warm boots, the hem of her nightgown can still tell that Brynn has returned from the suburbs. George had changed into one on the carriage before.
The burnt uniform of the reconnaissance team was handed over to the coachman Jack. Although the military leaders were curious about where George had been in the past few days, Jack, who had been following George, would not ask at all.
Without saying much, Arthur quickly took off his pants, then took Brynn's hand and tied up the thick clothes she was currently wearing.
"Hurry up, Arthur, someone is coming!" Liqi closed the carriage door again. When Brynn closed the door curtain from the carriage, Liqi also adjusted her panic breathing and faced him head-on.
The arbitration office personnel came over with a notepad. Jack, who was sitting in the driver's seat, also got off and stood behind Li Qi. He and Li Qi were considered acquaintances. Unlike Brynn, Li Qi and Jack had met before.
On both sides, Jack knew that she was George's sister. The military and the arbitration office were not very good at dealing with each other. At this time, Jack supported Li Qi unconditionally.
The visitors were a man and a woman. Judging from the thick glasses they were wearing, they should also belong to the position of clerk, which is the specialized position of the arbitration office, inspector. The two couldn't help but flinched when they saw the strong Jack, but they still endured it.
He suppressed his fear and stepped forward: "Ms. Rich, this carriage is the carriage that Brigadier General George said he took back, right?"
"Yes, he should have said that he was with my sister, right?" Li Qi stood in front of the two people who wanted to approach the carriage, preventing them from easily approaching.
"This is natural, but we still need to make sure, Ms. Brynn, are you right? Are you inside?" The female arbitration inspector pushed Li Qi away and took the male inspector. This rude behavior made Jack dissatisfied.
But Li Qi waved his hand to block Jack who wanted to teach the two of them a lesson. Jack could only see the carriage tilting slightly to the side, and nothing happened after that.
"Yes, I'm here. What happened?" Brynn opened the curtain and the door together and looked out the door. The two inspectors who were closer looked into the carriage. Except for Brynn,
There was nothing strange except for a few clothes. The two of them wanted to enter the carriage to check in detail. Judging from the clues they got, Arthur was indeed with George, but they didn't know where they went. Now George
Arthur returned to the city of Brighton in a carriage, and the same should have happened to Arthur. No trace of Arthur was found anywhere in the charity house, and now there is not even the carriage that George took back, which made the two inspectors begin to doubt their intelligence sources.
Authenticity.
"What's going on, two arbitration office staff, what are you looking for?" Brynn stayed calm, combed her somewhat messy hair, and sat upright.
"Are you the only one here all the time?" The female inspector wanted to step onto the carriage for a more detailed inspection, and even guessed about Brynn's warm boots.
"Don't you have any manners at all?" Jack took a half step forward, grabbed the male inspector's back collar, tripped him to the ground amidst the murmurs of passers-by, and pointed at the female inspector's back, "If
If you dare to step forward and step into my carriage, I don’t mind teaching you what manners are, ma’am.”
"It's okay, Jack." Brynn gave Jack a relieved smile, and then made an invitation gesture to the female inspector, "If this puts you at ease, you can get on the carriage and search to see if there is anything you want to find.
Something, but if you don't find it, I hope you can apologize, otherwise I don't know what this tough coachman will do."
Arthur leaned on the rear wing of the carriage. After rolling down from the window, he had been hiding here to avoid the sight of passers-by. After making sure that no one noticed him, he ducked and disappeared into the alley behind him. If there were places where he had been after waking up,
The people from the arbitration office are here, so even the area near the underground fighting gym is no longer safe. Where should I go now?
...
On the ground in the corner of the history book area on the third floor of the Heath Library in the South District, which covers an area of nearly 1,000 square meters, Arthur was sitting on the ground wearing a short-sleeved shirt with the fabric on his arms torn, reading the old books on hand, wearing a hat from the East District
He simply disguised himself with the cowhide hat he picked up, hoping that no one would notice him when he entered the library. There are five floors in the library, and there are three to four librarians on each floor.
At the same time, each floor also has a reading room. Only a few book areas are allowed to sit on the floor and read. There are books of all aspects and levels in the past century. Except for a few that are not allowed to be collected, there are either valuable original books.
Or there are imitations.
Arthur was pushing a large number of books about the old gods around him at this time. He needed to check historical examples of being guided by spirits, or hope that there were no records related to Isis.
Just two hours before Arthur left Charity House Street, hundreds of wizard wanted notices were posted on every main street in the city. Besides him, there were two other wizards on them, but they were both wizards he didn't know.
.The library was chosen as a temporary place to stay because of its unique and quiet environment. Large groups of people are not allowed to enter, and no noise is allowed. Even if there is a major incident, outsiders must abide by the rules of the library.
"Are you interested in the old gods?" A clear female voice sounded in Arthur's ears. Arthur immediately put his hand on his sword bag. When leaving the carriage, he took some necessities from George's backpack.
, the Monument of Life was too huge and could only be given to George and Brynn. However, the scepter Ugor entrusted to him was carried by Arthur. Together with the Sika Sword, this was all Arthur relied on to escape.
"Who are you?" Arthur raised his head to face the sunlight coming from the high window and looked at the person standing in front of him. He unbuckled his sword bag and was always ready to attack.
"Me? I'm the librarian on the third floor. Do you want to meet me? I don't look much older than you."
"No, what's the matter with you?" Arthur couldn't see clearly the face of the visitor because of the backlight. He could only judge from the voice that the visitor was a young woman, maybe about the same age as Jie Lin. In such a nervous time,
Arthur would not treat anyone lightly, he lowered the brim of his cowhide hat lower.
"I'm sorry for interrupting you. I rarely see young people with so many... you know, history books. I originally thought it was just me. By the way, my name is Elus. If you
If you want to know..."
"Arthur. Wait, you said you are a librarian and you are interested in these books... Then, Elise, have you seen some cases of being guided by spirits, like being possessed by evil spirits?
Like something that you usually think is problematic, suddenly everything is arranging for you to make that seemingly unreasonable thing reasonable, and the other condition is that you must start from the old calendar..."
"Hmm... I think it's really possible for me to know..." The girl named Elise squatted down, and now Arthur could see clearly the person in front of him who looked like a circus doll used to perform mime.
girl, but the warning current that appeared faintly on Arthur reminded Arthur that if Arthur did something to the seemingly harmless girl in front of him, it must be something more dangerous for him. Maybe no one can help him.
Without revealing his identity as a wizard, Arthur decided to tell the girl in front of him what he had done.
Elus was troubled for only half a second, and then she stretched her facial features and said: "This may be related to... the most mysterious old god in the Western Continent. His name is... the God of Destiny and Reincarnation."
