Chapter 2066: Tampered Memory and the Girl in the Dream

If the six-ring Shushi in front of him belongs to the 【New World Mutual Aid Association】, then the reason why he cooperated with others to intercept the 【Remains of the Nameless】 in Tobesk last time is clear.

As for Xia De's attitude towards this organization... no attitude, as long as it doesn't hinder Xia De, Xia De doesn't care at all.

"I see."

He looked down at the three fossils:

"You take two, I'll keep one."

This is not because Xia De suddenly became greedy, but because he thought of the poem remnant of "Dragon breaking its shell, seven-colored dragon scales". Keeping one fossil might be useful.

This time the six-ring Shushi did not object. After all, he really couldn't beat Xia De. So he let Xia De choose first, but he didn't take the other two dragon eggs directly, but went outside to avoid suspicion first. After Xia De finished his business, he also had to clear Freeman Hawthorne's memory to prevent his identity from being leaked.

After the silence spell took effect and it was confirmed that the outside world could not hear the sound here, Xia De looked at the man wriggling on the ground.

After squatting down, he pressed the muzzle against the other party's forehead:

"I ask and you answer, listen carefully. About ten days ago, you met with Herman Wood and Georgia Black at the Crowley Steam Bath. There were also three prostitutes present at the time. What happened that night?"

Hawthorne, feeling the cold muzzle, widened his eyes slightly:

"What happened... nothing happened."

Xia De frowned, not because the other party was stubborn, but from the expression, Hawthorne was not lying.

Then he further asked about the details of that night, and learned that the three were really talking about business. When they left around eleven o'clock, Miss Lisa, whom Xia De had contacted, and the woman from the Parsifal Club were left in the bathhouse. Then the three took the remaining woman, the deceased, to find fun elsewhere, and didn't separate until after one o'clock.

Hawthorne didn't seem to know about the deceased at all, and knew nothing about what Miss Lisa said, "I vaguely heard Mr. Black invite the other two to see something interesting".

Xia De also had lie-detecting spells on him. For this kind of villain who manipulates city gangs, Xia De didn't hesitate to use interrogation means, but finally confirmed that what he said was the truth. Therefore, either Miss Lisa heard it wrong because she was sleepy, or Hawthorne's memory was modified, and the means of modification were quite brilliant.

"So, the man with black dragon scales on his face said that I couldn't investigate any clues at all. So, the church knew about the female corpse, but there has been no progress in the investigation so far..."

After figuring this out, Xia De called the six-ring Shushi waiting outside the door and watched him erase Hawthorne's memory of the last two hours. Xia De didn't mention what he had done, but knew that the man holding the "Sword of the Wind King" would continue to stay in Moon Bay:

"John Sinclair."

He introduced himself, probably thinking he would meet Xia De again in the future. And Xia De didn't stay long on the ship, and returned to the pier shortly after.

"If Miss Lisa heard it wrong, then it means that the corpse has nothing to do with the three of them, and the deceased was attacked on the way home... No, I still think it is more likely that their memories were modified."

On the one hand, it is because the appearance of the Ringed Shushi of the 【Dragon-Feasting Cult】 means that the three are definitely involved, and on the other hand, it is because he believes in his own inspiration:

"The church doesn't know that the 【Dragon-Feasting Cult】 participated in this matter, and their investigation direction will probably be misled. Memory modification... It seems I have to ask Xilisi for help."

Although the "Cult of the Forgotten" has declined, Xia De has no doubt about their professionalism in memory manipulation. And contacting Xilisi, who is far away in Wilendale, by letter is too slow, and can only rely on the mutual contact of witches in the council.

Since Mr. Bernhardt could find out the identity of the nameless female corpse, and then find out the three of Hawthorne, Black, and Wood, presumably the church should be able to find out soon. The Ringed Shushi hiding behind the three did not let the three disappear, indicating that he was very confident in his ability to modify memory. Therefore, Xia De could only think of letting more professional people help.

When he returned home, it was seven o'clock in the evening. The edge of St. Deran Square was shrouded in the light of gas street lamps, and in the brightly lit home covered by curtains, Little Mia was circling the fossil egg, but soon lost interest in the stone, and Luweiya listened to Xia De talk about his experiences in the past few days.

"Light and dragon? The seventh Chosen One corresponds to 'Light'... The ancient god of light 'Dragon of Radiance' is the guardian of dragons and has the powers of light, justice, and power. The legends of this ancient god are still circulating in the material world to this day. The influence of dragons in ancient legends on modern culture originated from that ancient god."

In the study, the purple-eyed divination lady wrote down the words "Dragon breaking its shell, seven-colored dragon scales", and two 【Weak Healing】 and two 【Wrath of the Thunder God】 were placed by her hand:

"There are too few clues, I don't suggest using these coins for divination now. But the Ringed Shushi organizations involved in this matter are the 【Light-Worshipping Seminar】 and the 【Dragon-Feasting Cult】. The former studies light, and the latter studies dragons. This is definitely not a coincidence."

"It's just that they haven't surfaced yet, and investigations against them are not easy to conduct. I am looking forward to Miss Lei Qianya's investigation into the seven glorious families. This time, the discovery of the dragon scale and this remnant is because of this."

Luweiya nodded:

"We haven't gained the initiative yet. In the case of unclear clues, Miss Lei Qianya's role is indeed very critical... Xia De, don't wander around in Moon Bay City. If you have time, go talk to that witch, drink tea. This is the serious business, don't be distracted by other things."

"Luweiya, don't you feel that what you said is strange?"

Xia De blinked, and the purple-eyed girl didn't understand:

"What's strange? Isn't this right?"

In the case of lack of clues, Xia De could only wait for new turning points to appear. So they didn't keep talking about this matter that night. It happened that the academy sent the ritual materials he bought this morning at nine o'clock in the evening, so Luweiya assisted Xia De in holding the ritual in the attic. She knew that Xia De was learning some kind of time-based strange technique, but Xia De didn't say what it was specifically:

"This is a very high-end strange technique. Even if the ritual is held, it doesn't mean it can be learned. Luweiya, if you have time recently, can you discuss more about the movement of stars and the changes of the galaxy with me? I need such knowledge."

"Hmm..."

The purple-eyed girl asked with a smile:

"Can I understand it as you are inviting me to spend the night here more often at night?"

And when midnight arrived, Luweiya, who was curled up in Xia De's arms and fell into a deep sleep, naturally didn't know that Xia De had entered that strange dream again.

The dark sun with fire lines flowing in the dim yellow sky seemed to be the eternal landscape of this dream. The long-haired girl sitting on the roof welcomed her beloved again. While enthusiastically and boldly asking for warmth, she also provided Xia De with new information again.

However, after the clouds and rain stopped, the long-haired girl feeling the temperature of Xia De's soul first mentioned another thing:

"Xia De, did you see Adele Isabella?"

Xia De was startled and looked at the long-haired girl lying in his arms. The latter's eyes were blurred with tears. This was not because she felt aggrieved, but just because she would cry every time they had intimate contact. This was a feature that the short-haired Luweiya did not have.

"Not the current Adele, did you see the Adele of the past?"

Xia De was not at a loss. He expected that the long-haired Luweiya might know, so he didn't intend to use lies to prevaricate:

"Yes, last time when I contacted Miss Feilian through 【Poetry Cards】 at the Witch Council, I accidentally contacted her. I didn't think about how to tell you about this, sorry... Did you recognize the ritual I held tonight?"

After all, it was Xia De who actively concealed it, so he expressed his apology.

"My knight, never say sorry to me. I don't know that ritual, I just smelled her scent from your soul. She passed knowledge to you, but didn't know that she would leave traces because of this. Arrogant Adele will never know why she lost to me."

She hugged Xia De tightly, listening to Xia De's heartbeat on the roof of the yellow sand:

"Did she say not to believe me, did she say to stop me?"

"Hmm... yes, she also said, everything is..."

"Everything is my plan, everything is within my plan."

The long-haired girl pursed her lips and raised her head. The purple eyes close at hand contained tears. This expression almost made Xia De fascinated and crazy.

"She is right."

She said softly, and then the lips with the taste of tears kissed Xia De:

"But only this time, this is not my plan. I failed again and again. This time, I gave everything to you, everything to you, my Xia De."

This time she was really crying for this matter, and she lay on Xia De's chest again:

"Believe in Adele. Although she has been destroyed at the end of the long river of time, she is very capable. Grab her and let her become your strength too. Just don't tell her that I know about her, otherwise she will be even more suspicious that everything is my plan."

"What have you done to her in the past... Okay, okay. I won't ask, don't cry."

Soul nestled against soul. Xia De, who saw Luweiya raise her head again, finally couldn't bear the impulse in his heart, kissed her eyes gently, and then kissed away those tears.

The purple-eyed girl broke into a smile, and the "she" in her ear made a sound that seemed to be there or not:
