Lord of Mysteries: Curly-haired Baboon

v2 Chapter 28: Fire

With deep eyes, Lucid looked at the golden pound in his hand quietly, and couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

But then the longing and hope in her eyes slowly gained the upper hand, surging like a wildfire.

Taking a deep breath, Lucid leaned back and leaned against the back of the armchair.

Indulging in spirituality, she enters the "dream state".

After walking through a misty mist without up and down, left and right, a space gradually appeared in front of Lucid's eyes.

"Spiritual intuition" moved slightly, and her thoughts turned, and then she plunged in.

"Wow..."

Penetrating through the fog, the eyes suddenly opened up.

A man wearing a vintage black trench coat, flax hair and emerald green eyes appeared in front of her.

Immediately afterwards, scenes and scenes appeared in dreams like revolving lanterns.

…………

Flame, silver moon, displaced citizens...

Sitting slumped in the armchair, Lucid's face didn't look pretty.

According to the income from dream divination, I was once also a "Night Watcher" of Tingen, and had an intersection with the leader of the Night Watcher squad "Matthew Monaghan", and experienced many things together.

Among them, the most iconic thing is the "Tingen Fire".

"Such a major event, there must be some records..."

Muttering, she keenly grasped the point, but she was not too happy.

What Lucid worried about happened after all.

Myself... It seems that it is more than just amnesia.

Looking at the neat and orderly streets outside the window, there are still signs of the "fire"?

Not only that, the current captain of the "Night Watcher" team is not "Matthew Monaghan" either.

This means that I may not belong to the current "era"!

"Ugh……"

Looking at the sky that seemed unchanging in the past, Lucid sighed and couldn't help but feel a little frightened.

The more real, the more terrifying.

"No... it won't be like this."

Her eyes flickered, and she murmured like self-comforting:

"It doesn't take long to erase the traces of the "fire", maybe a few years will be enough..."

"Well...it's like this, after all, I also look very young..."

After murmured for a while, Lucid "convinced" himself.

…………

The next day, in front of Gate 4 of Narcissus Street.

As usual, Lucid met Klein.

"Where are we going today...?"

Extending the tone, Lucid looked rather listless.

Glancing at her slightly puffy eye bags, Klein raised his eyebrows, and immediately said with concern like a realization:

"Ah! Your...er, body...isn't it?"

As he spoke, he seemed to be comfortable, and he squeezed his eyebrows quite skillfully.

"what?"

Lucid couldn't help being stunned, but immediately reacted.

This is the "sequelae" of lying yesterday.

She shrank her neck insignificantly, but she was a little touched while she was guilty, and immediately waved her hand and replied:

"Thank you for your concern, I'm fine now..."

"Um……"

Nodded, Klein took a deep look at her.

"..."

Lucid was a little hairy when he was staring at him, only that the look in his eyes at the moment was a bit weird and not quite right.

Fortunately, Klein didn't delve into it, he quickly turned his head and set off in strides.

"call……"

Following him, Lucid quietly breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time secretly thought about it.

"Do you know the history of the fire in Tingen?"

Looking at the back of the black-haired young man in front of her, she hesitated a little, but she couldn't help but throw out the question in her heart.

"Um?"

Klein, who was suddenly asked, couldn't help but stopped slightly.

Turning his head to look at the girl with a little nervousness on his face, he frowned and asked suspiciously:

"Why are you asking this?"

"Uh……"

Lucid was asked such a question, and he couldn't help but curl his lips with some guilty conscience, and he replied:

"I'm just a little curious... By the way, where are we going today? Should we go to "Black Thorns"?"

"Do not."

Shaking his head, Klein continued to move forward:

"Let’s go to Hogwarts University today, um... visit one of my teachers."

"Oh……"

With his eyes flickering, Lucid stopped thinking about it any more, and gave up the plan of arguing from Klein's mouth.

But walking behind Klein, she did not see the thoughtful expression on the face of the young man in front.

"Tingen has experienced many fires, and the most recent one... occurred ten years ago..."

After coming over for a while, the young man suddenly said to himself.

"Eh……"

Lucid couldn't help being stunned, a gleam in his eyes.

Ten years ago!

There was a gleam of hope in her heart.

If it was really ten years ago, then everything seems not so bad.

His eyes moved slightly, Lucid was a little impatient, and wanted to ask some things about "Matthew Monaghan", the former captain of the "Night Watcher" squad.

But after thinking about ~lightnovelpub.net~, she felt a little wrong again.

The matter of the Tingen fire was a prevarication, but when asked about the "night watcher," it was difficult to explain it.

With eyes flickering, Lucid decided to change his questioning method.

After carefully recalling the information "see" in "Dream Divination", Lucid asked nervously:

"The fire ten years ago...was it burning in the dock area?"

"Uh……"

Unexpectedly, this question stumped Klein.

After angrily turned his head and glanced at Lucid, he twitched the corner of his mouth and said:

"I don't know... I was young ten years ago, and I don't remember that clearly."

"But...you can ask some older people to ask."

"Oh……"

Somewhat puzzledly he agreed, Lucid couldn't help but a little hope appeared on his face, and his mood was a little better.

In this way, the two got on the stagecoach and soon came to a gate that looked quite historically vicissitudes of life.

"Wow……"

Lucid was a little surprised when he got out of the car.

This is probably the strangest "gate" she has ever seen.

There are no walls, no door panels, and nothing more than the vicissitudes of heavy arched buildings.

This one stands at the end of the street like a lonely mountain, with a few words faintly visible on it:

Hogwarts.

And behind the gate, there is an endless lake.

In the middle of the lake, there is a not-so-small island on which a huge castle stands unexpectedly.

"hiss……"

Taking a breath, Lucid turned his head to look at Klein in surprise, and asked in disbelief:

"This is Hogwarts?"
