Chapter 444: The second time out.
Ronald’s eyes darkened.
Heloise noticed this change immediately.
Putting down her hair that was not yet dry, the girl turned around and came to the desk, and then looked at the map of Springs City where Ronald had just marked the location.
"..."
Ronald clearly connected the alchemy symbol of 'sulfur' on the map with black ink.
When her eyes fell on it, Heloise naturally saw the shape of the mark.
However, unlike Ronald, who was familiar with Earth's culture, although Heloise could guess that this was a meaningful figure, she was unable to discern its meaning.
After thinking for a few seconds, the girl took the initiative and asked:
"Ronald, what do you see from this?"
"Heloise, do you remember the time we went to sea because of a typhoon? What do you think of that volcano? , Investigation Bureau... No, it should be said that the official forces here in Springs have really dealt with those problems?"
"That volcano?"
Hearing Ronald's question, Heloise's face flashed A hint of surprise.
At least in her eyes, there was no problem with Springs' official power. Even if the problem was a volcano, it would not pose a threat to Springs if enough manpower was dispatched. .
But after all, this was an inquiry made by Ronald himself.
Heloise carefully analyzed the current situation in the city in her mind, and after reaching the conclusion, Heloise continued:
"I don't think there is any problem."
"This is Springs, a city directly commanded by the queen! To deal with such a situation, we can only It's a trivial matter. Besides, I don't see any special meaning to this symbol... Wait! Ronald, do you know anything extra?" "..." "
This
is considered an espionage worker. A uniquely sharp sixth sense?"
"That's what you think~~"
Heloise immediately grasped the key to the problem.
Ronald shrugged, not intending to hide anything from the other party. After all, the girl in front of him is his most trustworthy partner at the moment. Putting his finger on the pattern drawn on the map, he immediately explained:
"This symbol actually means sulfur."
"Last time we were under the destroyed island, wouldn't we..."
Hailuo Iss immediately understood what Ronald was thinking.
She did not fully accommodate Ronald's wishes, but directly interrupted him and put forward her own different opinions:
"Ronald, your association is a bit far-fetched, isn't it?"
"This world is not only in volcanoes" That's why there's sulfur. Maybe it's the magic of this group of cult warlocks, or maybe something else is involved with sulfur?"
while telling his own opinion.
Heloise walked around the desk and sat generously on Ronald's lap. She swayed her body from side to side and changed into a comfortable position. She no longer held the towel with her right hand, and just placed it directly next to Ronald's hand.
"Of course, I don't mean to completely reject your idea."
"Although most of these cult warlocks have some brain problems, they are unlikely to make meaningless choices on this matter, as long as you really don't misunderstand this symbol. I mean, then if you try something related to sulfur, you should gain something." "...
"
What Heloise said made sense, and Ronald also felt that she was right. wrong.
But if he simply revealed the matter like this, he always felt that something was not right.
At present, the alchemy symbol of sulfur has been found by myself, but does this mean that there is no problem?
"This..."
"I feel a little uneasy. I'm still not at ease."
Gently pressing his chin on Heloise's hair, Ronald felt the moisture that had not dissipated from the girl's body, and then spoke slowly Expressing his thoughts:
"Heloise, you also know that the situation in the city has become more and more complicated recently, and no one can guarantee that the environment they are in is safe. I understand that this association is indeed far-fetched, but There is still some worry in my heart."
"..."
"Hehehehe..."
Heloise, who was sitting on Ronald's lap, suddenly laughed.
Hearing this, how could Heloise, who had lived together for so long, not be able to hear what Ronald was really thinking.
So she jumped off Ronald's lap. The girl walked to the door first and threw over the coat that Ronald had taken off before. Then she walked into the bedroom and changed her clothes.
"I understand, I understand. Anyway, I'm just worried." "Actually
, it's easy to handle. Can't we find out if we go out together and take a look?" "
They can't tear up the space here and create a monster. As long as the two of us If we work together, what can't be solved?"
Ronald's hearing was extremely keen.
Listening to Heloise's muttering mixed with the sound of getting dressed, and the other party's crisp decision, he instead scratched his hair a little embarrassedly.
Heloise's decision really struck a chord with Ronald.
What he had been hesitating about was whether to meddle one more time.
Now that Heloise has taken the initiative to help him make a decision, Ronald naturally can no longer hesitate.
He slowly stood up from the chair and put on the coat Heloise threw over.
Before heading out for the second time tonight, Ronald's eyes fell on the map of downtown Springs for the last time.
"Industrial area, border forest area, commercial area, riverside area, port area..."
Since we want to go out for this trip.
Then it is always right to go directly to the most important place of the cult warlock.
The 'sulfur' pattern drawn on the map is a figure that is symmetrical on the left and right but different on the top and bottom.
According to the knowledge Ronald learned during this period, this large-scale mysterious side ceremony will set up the central altar near the center. This layout design is conducive to the fastest gathering of magic power, and the effects of the ceremony can also be quickly fed back to the surroundings.
For Ronald, the result was a much narrower scope for investigation.
After being accurate to a certain extent, the central area of this ceremony happened to be in the business district where Ronald worked before!
Isn't this a coincidence?
Ronald was quite familiar with that area.
Even excluding commuting to and from work every day, he would wander around the business district during afternoon tea, and he was as familiar with the terrain as if he were in his own back garden!
Facing the rare good news, Ronald immediately shouted to the bedroom:
"If the other party wants to take action, the core location should be near the business district."
"It's not too far from here, let's just walk there?"
"Of course it's no problem." The girl's voice immediately came from the bedroom, "But if I come back tonight, I don't plan to take a shower. "
..."
Ronald heard the other party's teasing and immediately said back:
"Whatever you want!"
[I wish everyone a happy single life on 520! 】
