The fax function was also a part of this clockwork device.
However, it required paper and paint to be added.
After a while, all the relevant information was sent over.
Han Dong activated the high-speed reading mode and memorized the core content within a few minutes. He then returned to the carriage.
…
[Old Sewer]
Lecturer Pasha held a bounty notice that Han Dong and the others had accepted.
She stared at the evil curse mark and the drawing of ghosts at the bottom.
"This kid has only been in school for a week, and he's already carrying out such a difficult mission … I have to report the situation to Mr. Black And White. If this kid really dies, it'll be troublesome."
In fact, Pasha usually did not care about the life and death of students.
However, Han Dong's position was too special … Moreover, whenever Mr. Black And White was involved, Pasha would treat it seriously.
However, just as Pasha finished writing a message full of honorifics and sent it to Mr. Black And White, she immediately received a reply.
[You don't have to worry about this. Let Nicholas handle it himself.]
After receiving such a reply, Pasha was no longer worried and continued her experiments.
…
* Rumble! *
In the train's private room.
Cass, Han Dong, and the others were discussing this matter.
Naturally, they started talking about the 'ghost' … Sophia, who was prejudiced against Han Dong in the group, immediately asked, "What do you think?
"I heard that the Mystery Branch has a unique research and understanding of creatures that are involved in 'pollution.'
Friend Andwa, do you have any unique opinions about ghosts? "
"I think that the probability of this incident corresponding to a 'real ghost' is not too high …"
Han Dong's words immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the carriage.
Although there were restrictions in the bounty notices that were directly issued based on the investigation of the local public security officers, they still had to be reviewed by professionals to a certain extent before they were written on the bounty notices.
However, Han Dong said that the 'ghost incident' written on the notice did not correspond to ghosts.
"Nonsense …"
"Sophia, let Andwa tell us his opinion."
Sophia's words were interrupted by Cass. She was so angry that her entire face flushed red. She pouted her lips … as if she felt that Cass was more biased towards Han Dong.
Han Dong explained carefully, "Everyone knows the characteristics of ghosts, right? A humanoid spirit that is almost invisible. It needs a layer of cloth, usually white cloth, to form a connection with reality. It usually appears at night. "
Cas nodded. "That's right … These characteristics match the specter drawn on the bounty poster.
Friend Andwa, how did you deduce that the target was not a specter? "
"According to our investigation, most spirits are 'friendly.' Their formation has nothing to do with the creatures outside the city walls. Instead, it's due to their attachment to the real world. Only a small number of spirits who died an unnatural death might turn demonic.
Moreover, the description on the bounty had never been seen in any records or images of ghosts.
Even if they grew tentacles due to the influence of the city walls, they were kept inside the spirit's body, and not exposed on a large scale like in the portrait. "
"Could it be a special situation?"
"That's possible … but I'm very concerned about this' heresy curse '. After thinking about it for a long time, I seem to have seen this type of heresy curse in a medieval book.
The origin of the heresy curse, plus the details and characteristics of these non-ghosts.
I suspect that the probability of the target being a ghost is low, and there's a high probability that it's related to witches … or even both. "
When Han Dong mentioned the word 'witches', everyone in the carriage fell into deep thought, including Sophia, who had always been against Han Dong.
Han Dong's explanation was undeniable.
They could not determine that the target was a 'ghost' based on the description of the residents.
This heresy curse mark was also crucial evidence.
Cas was silent for a while, then said, "If witches are involved, the difficulty of the incident might increase … but we don't have conclusive evidence to report to the church or the Adventurers' Guild, and let them increase the difficulty and reward.
How about this!
We'll reach the streets of London around one in the afternoon.
Before the sun sets, we'll complete the relevant investigation. Once we've obtained enough evidence to prove the existence of witches, we'll immediately report it to the Order of Knights. "
"Alright!"
After this round of discussion.
'Shorty' Koslin, who was adjusting the accuracy of his sniper rifle, had a better impression of Han Dong.
As a Mystery Apprentice, Han Dong was completely qualified in the field of knowledge. Next, they only needed to see his actual combat ability.
"Andwa! You're really something … If we can't obtain information about witches in advance, our team might be in danger if we barge into the incident site directly. "
Cas laughed heartily and hugged Han Dong tightly with one arm, appearing very intimate.
For the rest of the time, in order to relax, they chatted about some interesting matters within the academy. Most of the topics revolved around Han Dong … They wanted to know what the daily life of this top student of the Mystery Branch was like.
When Han Dong explained some of the situations in the [Old Sewers], especially when he talked about the 'Plague Physique', Sophia, who was at the side, had goosebumps all over her body.
After all, they had to establish a 'suitable' fungal environment in the body. Even Cas felt uncomfortable when he thought about his organs and internal cavity being covered in fungus.
Everyone was very glad that they did not choose the Mystery Branch back then.
They arrived at the streets of London.
"Gentlemen, do you want to buy a newspaper? Today, the eldest son of the Roman family won an 'excellent' spot in the [Library] major of the Knight Academy. We have an exclusive interview. At the same time, we have also collected some of the books that Novice Knight Roman usually reads … A newspaper only costs one penny. "
Penny was a type of currency in the Holy City.
After all, the value of copper coins was extremely high. When trading ordinary goods, such a small amount of auxiliary currency was needed to support the transaction.
One hundred pence was equivalent to one copper coin.
"Is there any news about 37 London Street?" Cas asked.
When the newspaper boy heard this, his expression turned ugly. He seemed to know some inside information and asked in a low voice, "You are Novice Knights?"
Cas was very experienced. For a moment, he showed a golden card in his waist pocket.
The newspaper boy was shocked and showed five fingers. "I know a little, but the newspapers don't allow me to publish it … Give me five pence and I will tell you all the information I know."
Cas first handed over five pence and ordered, "Just take us straight to the road.
We will talk as we walk … If you can tell me something that I think is valuable, I will give you extra money. "
"Thank you, Sir Knight. Follow me! 37 Street is not very far. It will only take us half an hour to walk there. "
