Chapter 112 Evidence
In the morning in Igwinter, there was a light mist in the air, and the outlines of distant buildings were looming in the mist. Gregor, who was walking quickly on the street, was not affected by the foggy weather. He hummed a little tune while walking quickly forward, weaving among the passers-by.
He walked to the lobby of the Baishushan Building, and after entering the lobby, he went straight to the front desk and greeted the old woman who was concentrating on writing something.
"Good morning, Ms. Ida."
"Oh... Good morning Greg, you come here as usual..." Ada raised her head and said with a forced smile. Her expression was a little more haggard than before, and it was obvious that the impact of the previous incident on her had not yet passed.
"Yeah, it's always a good idea to exercise more." Greg said as he adjusted his collar, while Ada said with a smile.
"You are so energetic, young man. Although you have been busy these days, you seem to be in a good mood."
"Hehe... Although I'm very busy recently, it will be over soon. As long as there are no flowers or anything like that, I'll send you..."
"Good morning, ma'am. I'm from Butterfly Flower Shop. These are the flowers that a customer ordered. Please keep them."
At this time, a young girl in a formal dress walked to the front of the stage with a bouquet of flowers, placed them in front of Greg and Ada and said with a smile.
Looking at the bright bouquet of flowers on the front desk, Gregor's expression froze on his face, and his mood was instantly synchronized with the foggy weather outside. Ada smiled and shook her head as she looked at the scene in front of her.
…
In the basement of the Cypress Fir Building, the Igwinter Security Bureau.
In the director's office, another bouquet of flowers was placed on the desk. Greg, Turner, Elena, and James were all present, and they all looked at the flowers on the table with a serious expression.
"Here they come again... Now let's see what information they have sent us this time."
As he spoke, James walked to the desk, then pulled out an envelope from beside a rose, opened it, took out the letter inside, and unfolded it to look at it.
Afterwards, James frowned.
"Mr. James, what's written on it?" Greg said, looking at James's expression, and James spoke after a moment of silence.
“It’s the lyrics.”
"lyrics?"
Greg and the other two were surprised when they heard what James said. Then James slapped the letter on the table. The three of them immediately came over to take a look, and Elena directly read out the lyrics.
"Sheep... Sheep... We are lambs... Dear lambs... Please have mercy on our growth..."
"Hiss... this seems like a nursery rhyme?" Greg said in confusion as he looked at the song, while Turner spoke directly out loud.
"Why did those guys suddenly send us nursery rhymes this time? Do they think we are children?"
“This is not an ordinary nursery rhyme…”
At this time, James continued to speak. Hearing his words, everyone looked at James in surprise, and James continued slowly.
"This is a nursery rhyme that is sung by the children of the Ci'en Orphanage during the charity event every year. It is a regular performance of the charity event. It is said to be written and provided by Viscount Field. I have heard it several times."
"Lord Field, the charity's performance of nursery rhymes? Why... why did those guys send this kind of thing over inexplicably? What do they want to express?" Turner became even more confused after listening to James' answer. For a moment, he had no idea what the meaning of this was.
What exactly does the organization calling itself Rosicrucian want to express with this nursery rhyme?
Just when everyone was confused by the riddle, James, who was staring at the letter paper, suddenly froze in his tracks, as if he had discovered something.
Then, James picked up the letter again, separated the other lightly stained piece of letter from the back, turned it over and found that there was something densely drawn on it.
"There's another one behind it? What is this?"
Seeing this scene, Turner and the other two people leaned over to take a look, and found that the Hebrew drawn on the piece of paper at the back was a complicated circular magic circle, with a gold coin and an equilateral triangle configuration symbol in the center of the magic circle.
"This is... a magic circle, a magic circle with the meaning of 'stone'?!"
"This is a magic circle that can suppress the detection of poisons, usually used in the secret reading of the 'Cup'..." James said seriously while looking at the magic circle on the paper in his hand. Then he seemed to realize something suddenly, and put the letter paper with the magic circle of "Stone" printed on it aside. Then he unfolded the letter paper with the nursery rhyme printed on it in front of everyone.
After that... the four extraordinary people present all felt a slight strange feeling in their heads at the same time, and suddenly they had a subtle urge to eat something, especially Turner, who licked his upper lip inadvertently.
"this……"
Except for James, the other three immediately looked away, Elena said while rubbing her temple.
"This is... poison identification? This nursery rhyme is a secret? The secret of the 'cup'? But the poison identification was suppressed by the 'stone' magic circle at the beginning?"
"Why does this thing have the ability to detect poison? And the 'cup' expressed by appetite can detect poison." Turner took a step back and said, he was also an extraordinary person of the "cup" and was even more sensitive to the ability to detect poison.
Greg on the side seemed to realize something after thinking for a while, and then said to James who was still holding the letter in surprise.
"Mr. James, you just said... this song is a fixed program of the annual charity, written by Viscount Field and provided to the Grace Orphanage... but..."
Then, Greg hesitated for a while, and finally spoke out.
"But... Viscount Field's nursery rhyme... why is it the secret of 'Cup'?"
As soon as Gregor finished speaking, the entire office suddenly fell into deathly silence. Everyone had a solemn expression and said nothing.
At this moment, everyone present felt extremely depressed, as if they were unwilling to believe the guess that had come out of their hearts. However, there was no way, as the reality was right in front of them.
Even if the truth is cruel, we must accept it...
Finally, after taking a long breath, James spoke slowly.
"Greg, Turner, line up..."
"yes!"
…
At noon, in the southeast suburb of Igwynt, at the Ci'en Orphanage in a small wood.
At this moment, the Ci'en Orphanage was immersed in joy, with ribbons and flowers decorating everywhere. Children were playing and celebrating on the grass, and under the organization of the nuns, they were sharing clothes, books and toys donated by the charity in 2009.
In the lobby of the orphanage, Anna, a blonde girl with two pigtails, was standing there wearing her best dress, dressed beautifully, carrying a suitcase.
In front of her was Dorothy, dressed in an elegant white dress.
"Teacher Meshos, I didn't expect you to come and see me off today. That's great!"
Looking at Dorothy in front of her, Anna said with a sunny smile, and Dorothy responded with a slight smile.
"Of course, little Anna is my best student, how can I not come? Remember to be obedient and study hard in the future."
"Yes! I will definitely listen carefully to your Excellency the Viscount's words, and I will definitely study hard!"
"Okay, I believe you, Anna. By the way, to celebrate your good day today, I have specially prepared a gift for you. Don't move, I'll put it on you." As she spoke, Dorothy took out a gray handkerchief, and then took out a bright yellow flowered hair accessory from it, and then helped Anna put it on her head. After touching it, Anna also replied happily.
"Thank you, teacher! I think this will be very nice!"
At this time, an old nun appeared at the door, waved her hand and shouted.
"Anna! His Excellency the Viscount has arrived. It's time to go."
"I understand Sister Dilid, bye Teacher Meshhos!"
"Well...bye."
Waving her hand, Dorothy watched Anna carrying her suitcase and running quickly to the door, and then she was led out of the orphanage by the old nun.
Outside the gate, Anna said her last goodbye to her companions and nuns in the orphanage, and finally walked out with tears and red eyes. There, a luxurious three-horse carriage had been waiting for a long time. Viscount Field was standing in front of the carriage with a smile, and his goateed butler was standing silently behind him with a cane in his hand.
"Your Excellency, I, I am here."
Arriving in front of Viscount Field, Anna wiped away her tears and spoke in a panic, while Viscount Field spoke with a smile.
"Haha, from now on, you have to call me dear. Okay, let's get in the car..."
Just as Field was about to lead Anna to the carriage, a burst of hurried horse hooves sounds were heard in the distance. Everyone turned their heads and saw several black carriages pulled by two horses rushing towards them and then stopped not far away.
Later, many men in black, wearing dark uniforms, holding guns and wearing masks, came down from these black carriages. They ran quickly and surrounded Field's carriage and the people in front. The nuns and children at the orphanage door were stunned, and Anna was also stunned for a while.
