Two figures were running faster and faster in the dark night. The surrounding doors and windows were closed, and on the deserted street, as they were getting closer to the bustling area, there were more or less pedestrians who were still lingering outside.
Staying at the position agreed upon with the captain, Arnold and Brian looked left and right under the street lights, hoping to find that familiar figure.
But after carefully scanning around, nothing was found. Just when the two of them were about to feel depressed, a long-lost lazy sound sounded from the opposite corner of the street.
"If you don't go to the casino to investigate, why are you here? What happened?"
Brian looked around in surprise and saw Ms. Catherine Motley, dressed as a doctor, standing alone by the flower bed on the street.
How did you do it? Ms. Catherine was clearly not here just now. I am very sure of this fact. Is it a supernatural ability...
Ignoring the strange expressions of the two young team members, Ms. Catherine slowly walked out of the shadows. At this moment, both Brian and Arnold felt their bodies relax for no reason at the same time, and their nervous and complex emotions disappeared in an instant.
The mood gradually calmed down, and Arnold stepped aside, while Brian stepped forward very cooperatively and told him again what he had just said about the scroll and Tyron Raymond.
Ms. Catherine's expression did not change much after hearing this. She just nodded to show that she understood.
"This matter may have involved high-ranking beings, and it is indeed more important than the 'luck case'. We will give up the investigation of the casino first, and we will immediately go to Zerol College to confirm whether Professor Tyron has been affected."
Of course, the two team members had no problem with the captain's words, so they immediately nodded in agreement and headed to Zerol Academy together.
When he was about to arrive at the gate of the college, Arnold clasped his hands and put them on his chest and said, "I am hidden in the sea of people, without a trace, as if I have never been there." As his poetic words fell, his figure gradually
It became dim, and the whole person disappeared on the spot, disappearing into the silent night.
"This... is such an amazing ability." After reacting, Brian sighed repeatedly and was filled with envy.
Ms. Catherine smiled and didn't think anything of it. Instead, she said to Brian: "The 'Magician' is extremely outstanding in terms of ability. He can deal with most emergencies and is no better than the 'Midnight Poet'."
'Inferior."
"Well." Brian made a soft sound through his nasal cavity, and then reminded: "Ms. Catherine, strangers are not allowed to enter the college. What should I say to the security then? Is it okay to say that you are my relative?"
Ms. Catherine shook her head and said: "No need to bother, just leave!"
Brian didn't quite understand what this sentence meant, but he didn't ask any more questions and walked straight to the main entrance of the college.
At this time, the night shift in the duty room was an old man in his forties or fifties. When he saw someone approaching the iron door, he got up and picked up the lantern on the table beside him, opened the door of the duty room, stood at the door and looked at the person.
A young man in a black suit and top hat said:
"Sorry sir, outsiders are not allowed to enter this hospital. Please show your certificate."
Brian was stunned for a moment when he heard the doorman's reminder, and then he remembered that he had already changed his clothes when he went out. He turned around embarrassedly, took out a hard card the size of a playing card from the inner bag of his suit, and gave it to the night shift worker.
The old man showed it. This was his college ID.
Seeing the young man taking out his ID, the old man stepped out of the duty room, came to Brian, and examined it carefully. During this process, Brian discovered a problem, that is, the doorman seemed not to notice Ms. Catherine beside him at all.
, she is obviously right next to her.
"Is it also similar to the ability of invisibility?" Brian began to guess in his mind. At this time, the guard also confirmed the authenticity of the ID. After returning Brian's ID, he opened the iron door.
After walking a few dozen meters with the help of the lights on the roadside of the college, Arnold suddenly appeared next to Brian and said with a slightly tired expression: "If I don't come in quickly, I almost won't be able to hold on anymore."
Understanding from the words that Arnold's ability also has a time limit, Brian lowered his head slightly and said sheepishly: "I will pay attention next time."
Arnold shook his head: "I don't mean to blame you."
After the two talked quietly for a while, Ms. Catherine asked: "Brian, where is Professor Tyrone you mentioned? I will go and see it alone."
Brian thought for a moment and recalled, "No. 6, second floor, building 2, teacher's area, Professor Tai Lun's dormitory."
"Yes, I understand." Ms. Catherine nodded and warned the two of them: "I will go and check it alone first. If there are any problems, I will call you."
Without waiting for Brian and the two to agree, Catherine quickened her pace and went to investigate alone without making any sound. After the two people who were left behind looked at each other, Brian asked about what happened when he was looking for Ms. Catherine.
Strange things.
Hearing the inquiry from his new teammate, Arnold smiled and lowered his voice and explained: "Captain Catherine is a dual-professional, mastering the abilities of two professions, the saint-level 'killer' and the extraordinary-level 'hypnotist'. But we didn't see it at the time.
Captain, and the sudden appearance of mental peace from time to time, are all abilities of the 'hypnotist' profession."
After finishing speaking, Arnold seemed to have remembered something and added: "Although I know some of the captain's abilities, I was shocked when he suddenly appeared."
"Dual-career? Saint? Extraordinary..." Hearing several unfamiliar words in succession, Brian felt a headache and had difficulty digesting the meaning.
Knowing that it was difficult for Brian to understand, Arnold continued: "To put it simply, a dual professional is a professional who has mastered two extraordinary professions. Extraordinary and saint are the levels of professionals, and those like us are extraordinary professions.
Well, as for the Saint, that involves other knowledge. I recommend Brian that when you have time, you can go to Old Cole and borrow a book that records basic mysticism!"
Brian became more and more curious and nodded in response: "I will."
…
After spending about ten minutes, she arrived at the classroom area and found the location of Tyron Raymond's dormitory. At this time, she was outside the door, listening to what was going on inside.
"Dong dong dong..."
The sound in the room was sparse, and you could only occasionally hear a little collision of the wooden bed. This seemed very normal, but in Catherine's eyes, it could already explain some problems.
The next moment, Catherine's body rapidly collapsed from bottom to top, and her flesh, flesh, and bones turned into crumbs. In an instant, only a blur of flesh and blood and a few pieces of women's clothing were left where she was standing.
Then the flesh and blood moved slowly, dragging the clothes, passed through the gap left under the door, and entered the room silently.
In the dark room with no light source, the flesh and blood hidden under the white robe squirmed, and a green eye was gradually squeezed out to observe the surrounding environment.
The room was simply decorated, and apart from daily necessities and books, there were no other extraneous things. On the wooden bed in the corner of the room, a middle-aged man in pajamas was trembling and mumbling something.
