Mystery: From Meeting Amon

Chapter 48 As a Gift from the Goddess

Following the direction pointed by the conductor, Lewis glanced at the price wooden sign hanging near the window.

There is a bus every 10 minutes during the peak period, and 15 minutes during the rest of the time. The first-class seat is 6p, the second-class seat is 4p, and the third-class seat is 3p. The round-trip costs are 9, 6, and 5p. 8 pounds 5 soli for first-class seats, and no annual pass for third-class seats.

In addition to the price of the seat, the distance is not marked on the wooden sign, which means that there is no distance limit for the subway here.

Having a general understanding of the subway, Lewis took out 6 pence and handed it to the conductor to buy a first-class ticket.

Subsequently, Lewis found the line to the Hilton area, passed the less strict inspection and went to the platform to wait for the arrival of the tram.

Oh oh oh!
It didn't take long for Lewis to hear the siren sound like thunder, and a huge steam locomotive broke through the darkness under the illumination of gas lamps on both sides, and stopped in front of him with a bang.

Lewis got on the tram and sat down. The first-class seat was a single seat, and the luxuriously decorated leather seats gave people a sense of comfort.

Suddenly, Lewis' inspiration strikes, and he detects a familiar feeling.

On the left side of the line of sight, a lady with blond hair is sitting there. She wears a complicated dress and has a beautiful face like an elf.

The young lady noticed Lewis' gaze, and she looked at him, then smiled faintly, her eyes bent into crescents.

"This is the lady I met on the train? How could she appear here, is it a coincidence?"

Lewis didn't have the heart to appreciate beauties, he clearly remembered the needle-pricking feeling when he looked at her with his spiritual vision, this lady was obviously not simple.

Moreover, in this world, a coincidence often does not mean a pure coincidence. Behind the coincidence is likely to involve mysterious forces, and may even be an arrangement of fate.

"What is she doing? Is she looking for me?"

As soon as the idea of ​​conspiracy theory appeared, Lewis couldn't help but start thinking wildly. If he really had any value in him, then certain secrets would definitely not be ignored by him.

For the sake of safety, Lewis waited until the subway reached Queensboro Station before getting out of the train. He maintained the state of acting as a machine, allowing his steps to be smooth and fast enough.

After leaving the subway station, Lewis still did not dare to relax.He concentrated on feeling it, and he was relieved until he didn't find any feeling of being peeped.

"It should really be just a coincidence. I'm too sensitive."

Lewis went around in Queens, and he didn't return to the Hilton area where he lived, Alter Street until night fell.

Without thinking about the lady during the day, Lewis took a rest. He felt that he might have a "monophobia", and everyone he saw thought it was a conspiracy.

"The desire has become more and more difficult to contain recently, and I don't know if the girls in Backlund can go whoring for nothing. If not, it will be a huge expense." After lying on the bed for a while, Lewis couldn't fall asleep, and he endured Can't stop thinking of the dancers at Wharton House.

Of course, it is also a good choice to quickly drink the potion and be promoted to "Lucky", maybe he can pick up money and go whoring for nothing...

……

Tingen City, inside the Blackthorn Security Company.

Sunlight came in from the side window, and Klein took the coffee made by Rosanne and thanked her.

Boom boom boom!
"Please come in." Hearing the knock on the door, Klein responded.

"Here are two letters from Backlund, please sign for them." The postman wearing a brown linen coat appeared outside the room. He found two letters from his shoulder bag and handed them over.

After Klein signed the letters, he took the letters, showed them to Roseanne, and said with a smile, "One is for Old Neil, and the other is for the captain. I can't even imagine that any relatives of Old Neil would In Backlund."

"The captain is the same." Luo Shan added silently, she really felt sad for the relationship between the two.

After a while, Dunn Smith finished guarding the Chanis Gate and came up from the ground.He rubbed his forehead, looking refreshed after not sleeping all night.

"Captain, your letter." Klein picked up the envelope and showed it.

"My letter?" Dunn Smith took the envelope and opened it in front of Klein.

Inside the envelope was a piece of blank letter paper and a silver ring with intricate patterns. Those patterns didn't seem to be randomly carved, but instead seemed to have a certain mystical significance.

"Captain, I didn't expect someone from Backlund to give you a ring." Klein joked.

Dunn Smith threw the ring to Klein and said, "Divinate the origin and purpose of this ring. I suspect that someone is secretly targeting us."

Captain, you can't find a lady who is willing to accept you with a straight male mindset... Klein secretly complained about Dunn Smith, then took out the pendant, and started divination with the ring.

After a while, Klein rubbed the corners of his eyes and said: "The person who can only give the ring through divination is not malicious. In addition, this silver ring is actually a lucky charm. For a real lucky charm, you only need to inject spirituality and then call out 'fate. 'It can be activated!"

"Can the other party refuse your divination?" Dunn Smith frowned. If the other party can refuse Klein's divination, it means that the other party is definitely a transcendent, and the level will not be too low.

"That's right." Klein replied truthfully. He subconsciously set his eyes on another envelope addressed to Old Neil, wondering if the same spell was hidden in that letter.

Dunn Smith stuffed the ring into his jacket pocket. Klein looked at him in surprise and asked, "You just accepted it? It's a spell of unknown origin."

"Sometimes we have to learn to accept items of unknown origin and treat them as gifts from the goddess." Dunn Smith sat aside and asked Roseanne to make him a cup of coffee.

Captain, you are embezzling public funds in the name of a goddess... Klein couldn't help but complain.

……

Backlund Hilton District, Oort Street.

While drinking black tea, Lewis looked forward to his first customer, probably because the detective agency was not yet well-known, he did not wait for today's first customer, and even a person who consulted the case No.

"Maybe I should follow Klein's example and register an advertisement for a detective agency in the newspaper, although the price is not low." Lewis reluctantly put down his teacup, and couldn't help thinking.

In the afternoon, Lewis decided not to guard the empty detective agency, he was going to visit the local dancers.

After putting on his formal suit and top hat, Lewis always felt that there was something missing in his hand, which was a walking stick.

However, thinking of the price of the cane, Lewis felt a little heartbroken. After all, an ordinary cane costs more than five pounds, which is enough to buy two revolvers.
