Volume 1: The Gate of Flesh and Blood Chapter 101 Clues!
Xiusta looked at the scene in front of him and exclaimed in his heart.
No way? No way?
How could An be so nice to others?
Bring someone breakfast?
He didn't count just now.
That was a routine between colleagues - if An had been on duty all night, he would bring coffee and breakfast when he came.
But the Goethe in front of me is different!
It's an outsider!
wrong……
Maybe I am the outsider!
Recalling the way An appeared and asked Goethe directly, it was obviously not just business. If it was business, how to explain this breakfast.
Thinking of this, Xiusta stood up.
"I left my lighter in the car, I'm going to have a cigarette."
As he spoke, the police officer walked out.
Before leaving, she did not forget to wink at Goethe.
He, Xiusta, will definitely be able to achieve the goal of becoming an adult.
certainly!
He, Xiusta, also did not forget to share the good news.
An is in love!
Xiusta picked up his phone and started typing a text message.
then……
Mass send!
The door of the 'Folklore Research Institute' was closed, and Goethe frowned as he looked at the breakfast in front of him.
He wanted to refuse.
But he really didn't have breakfast.
At the same time, isn’t wasting food a bad thing?
Thinking of this, the key pendulum in Goethe's hand began to spin again.
'Is the breakfast in front of me poisonous?'
Turn in circles in the opposite direction.
Goethe made up his mind, opened the brown paper bag, and looked at the fully packaged sandwiches and coffee.
After smelling it and confirming that there was no peculiar smell, I tore open the package and started eating .
During the whole process, An didn't say a word and didn't sit in the chair. He just stood opposite Goethe and looked at him.
Or rather...
Observe Goethe.
'Very alert and very sophisticated.'
'Should be in a bad environment for a long time .'
'really!'
'The other party has been on the battlefield!'
Understanding appeared in An's eyes.
This battlefield does not refer to a conventional battlefield!
After all, there is a record that Goethe has never left the "Star City" in the 18 years since his birth.
At first, the policewoman thought she had sensed it wrong.
However, when the 'Blood Crow' appeared, the policewoman understood in her heart.
She understood why Goethe had such a familiar aura!
Who said there is no battlefield in 'Star City'?
The policewoman once again scanned everything inside the 'Folklore Research Institute'.
Especially the notes on the desk and the photos and clips on the whiteboard.
Looking at the monsters one by one.
Looking at each of them evil.
Finally, his gaze turned to Goethe again.
These monsters would not disappear on their own. They must have been dealt with by Goethe and his adoptive father.
Moreover, this is done without attracting attention.
How is the intensity and danger of it any different from what she experienced on the battlefield?
Even more dangerous!
'He and I are just the same person.'
'Always doing things that ordinary people don't know about.'
'Did his adoptive father train him?'
The policewoman was guessing in her heart when she saw Goethe take a sip of coffee and then stop drinking it.
"Don't like coffee?"
An asked.
"It's too bitter, even with sugar."
“Life is hard enough.”
“I like it sweeter.”
Goethe answered.
"knew."
An nodded.
What do you know?
Are you planning to bring me breakfast?
When did our relationship become so good?
Goethe complained in his heart, but for the sake of the egg and ham sandwich in his hand, he didn't say much - you can give face to anyone else, but you have to give face to food.
Otherwise you will be hungry.
When Goethe finished his breakfast, Ann took away the breakfast bag and the remaining coffee.
"I will pay attention to your adoptive father's affairs."
Before leaving, the other party said this.
Then, without giving Goethe a chance to speak, he just left.
Goethe frowned.
He knew that the other party must have misunderstood somewhere!
But he had no idea where it was!
"Explain it clearly next time!"
Goethe muttered to himself, put the money on the table into his wallet and went out.
Taxi, game center.
"Welcome!"
When Goethe pushed the door open and entered, mechanical electronic sounds rang out, and when Goethe entered, in an instant, various electronic sounds mixed together, accompanied by cold air blowing in his face.
Rows of old-fashioned arcade machines appeared before Goethe's eyes.
Because it was morning, there were not many people in the game center.
The bar is located in the middle of the entire gaming center.
There are several LCD screens hanging on it——
Morning: 8:00-11:59
Coin: 6 pieces/yuan.
Noon: 12:00-17:59
Coin: 5 pieces/yuan
Night: 18:00-00:00
Coin: 4 pieces/yuan
(Minimum price 1 yuan)
…
On the left side of the counter is the record redemption counter - there are prizes as well as photos and signatures of the record holders.
The maximum prize is 1,000 yuan.
On the right side of the counter are some candies and chocolates, and in the freezer next to it are drinks, ice water and ice cream.
"I want a quadruple scoop of ice cream."
Goethe pointed to the luxurious top-grade ice cream.
Creamy, vanilla, cantaloupe and strawberry flavors.
Take a lick, it tastes sweet and icy cold.
The creamy taste, in particular, made Goethe feel inexplicably satisfied.
The steps towards the second floor of the game center became lighter.
The second floor no longer has arcade machines, but computers.
The bulky computer that Goethe remembered was very old and could be called an antique.
But for Goethe, who came from the 'Anchor World' and experienced the previous 'Secret Realm', this was already a further advancement in technology!
It is still big enough to produce several qualitative improvements!
At least, it became much easier for him to find someone again.
Of course, the computers we use today are not cheap.
6 yuan/15 minutes!
That’s right , 15 minutes.
It's not 1 hour.
Also, printing and Internet access are available at additional costs.
After clumsily turning on the computer, Goethe began to dial up to the Internet according to the sticky notes stuck in front of the computer.
Then, with his keen sense of smell, he checked the 'learning materials' in his favorites.
I renewed my account 4 times without realizing it...
When the front desk receptionist reminded him to renew his bill for the fifth time, Goethe finally opened the web page with a calm expression.
He entered the name 'Modeus' into a search box.
A few entries appeared.
But none of them matched.
"Um?"
"Is the search incomplete?"
"Or did you use an alias?"
Goethe guessed and typed in the name "George".
Then Goethe's eyes widened.
Thousands of entries appear on the web.
Goethe glanced through them one by one, his expression gradually becoming strange.
George, one of the greatest painters in the world, however, George is not just a painter, he is also a truly talented scientist, inventor, and architectural engineer.
He is also very good at sculpture, music, invention and architecture.
He is proficient in mathematics, physiology, physics, astronomy, geology and other subjects.
He was both versatile and prolific, producing thousands of mechanical drawings and researching and designing aircraft, tools, and war machines during his career.
But what people talk about most is that he once predicted the development of history.
He predicted the steam engine, alternating current, and the airplane.
It also predicted...
war!
Because of this, he is called a 'prophet'.
In some places he is also regarded as a 'sage' and a 'saint'.
Goethe looked at the painting titled "Smile" and was 100% sure that this 'George' was the 'Modeus' he was looking for!
If this is not enough to prove that the other party is 'Modeus', the other party also left several self-portraits in this world - exactly the same as the portrait on Jinke.
Of course, no ears were cut off.
The normal kind.
There are both sketches and paintings.
"Plagiarist."
"It really is taking other people's paths, leaving them with nowhere to go."
Goethe gave a fair assessment when he discovered that the "mad king" had plagiarized a sonnet in order to woo a lady.
However, this is not a bad thing for him.
This "Mad King" seemed to have awakened his talent. According to the information he had roughly read, in this world, he had six wives and twenty-two lovers - all of whom had names and surnames.
There are probably more without names.
The other party's offspring are countless.
Some are even extremely famous.
only……
In the two subsequent world wars , most of these descendants were affected, and the remaining ones disappeared. Although there are still people claiming to be George's descendants, most of them cannot prove it.
call!
Goethe let out a long breath.
“ That’s good to have!”
"Affected by the war..."
"better!"
Goethe thought silently, took out the key and began to do divination.
After confirming some information, use divination to further confirm it.
This was Goethe's original intention.
'Does Star City have [Bloody Honor]?'
Goethe asked, but the pendulum didn't move at all.
Goethe frowned.
Immediately, he changed the way of asking the question.
'Are there any remains of George's descendants in Star City?'
The pendulum began to rotate forward.
'Did they die in an accident?'
The pendulum does not move.
'Were they murdered?'
The pendulum moves with the flow.
'Does the weapon that killed them still exist?'
The pendulum moves with the flow.
Goethe was overjoyed.
"Is the weapon that killed them in Star City?"
The pendulum moves with the flow.
Goethe began to get excited.
'The weapon that killed them is in the east (south, west, north) of 'Star City'?'
Goethe asked each question in turn, but the pendulum did not move at all.
Um?
Goethe was startled.
Then something occurred to Goethe.
'The weapon that killed them already has an owner?'
The pendulum moves with the flow.
Goethe narrowed his eyes.
The weapon that killed the descendants of the Mad King is still being used by someone!
This gave Goethe many associations.
He thought for a moment and began divination again.
'Is the person who possessed the weapon that killed George's descendants in the east (south, west, north) of 'Star City'?'
This time, Goethe's divination was just a trial one and he was prepared for failure.
However, contrary to Goethe's expectations, when he tried to move to the 'north' side, the pendulum actually responded.
"I need to print out a map of 'Star City'."
Goethe said to the receptionist.
Although curious, the receptionist did as he was told.
Goethe had already paid, so even if his behavior was strange, they wouldn't bother him.
After all, it's just a map.
It's impossible to blow up Star City with just a map, right?
Taking the map, Goethe picked it up and headed north towards the 'Star City'.
Stop and go along the way.
When he came to a complete stop, Goethe looked at the houses in front of him with a strange expression.
This is a residential building located in the suburbs.
Although there is a garden, it grows vegetables.
A very ordinary suburban house is not worth nearly as much as an urban apartment.
Moreover, it has fallen into disrepair.
The entire house has been broken into pieces.
Goethe was standing in front of the door, looking around. The door was pushed open, and a man with a fierce face and a bulging waist came out and shouted at Goethe: "What are you looking at?"
As he spoke, the other party walked towards Goethe.
As soon as the other party approached, Goethe smelled a faint smell of blood and...
The smell of corpse!
