v2 Chapter 4: Prophecy and another seal

Beldan City is located in Jianhai County.

Since the coal mine resources began to deplete, the young people in the city gradually left Beldan and went to make a living in the metropolis such as Constantine and Backlund. This originally prosperous city also quickly lost its vitality, and the atmosphere became more and more depressing.

After all, even if he is along the railway line and has lost his own resources, Beldan, who has not yet found a new position, is hopeless.

Such a half-dead, some reputation is not beneficial, it is still in the "junction" of Jianhai County and Feysac, and it was awarded to a "new Viscount" who contributed three million pounds of wealth, to the Loen royal family. It's a matter of convenience.

When Abner heard that George III would seal the city to him a few days ago, he couldn't help feeling that the other party was really calculating.

If he remembered correctly, according to the trajectory of the original book, the city of Beldan would fall in the future war. After the war, before the trauma was over, he had the unfortunate encounter with the Patriarch of the Church of God of War with a sealed item "0- 02" escaped into this place and almost destroyed the city...

"It's really bad luck... But since I have a 'prophet' who can 'change destiny' as the lord, it's time to turn around!"

After boasting a few words in his heart, Abner didn't think it was difficult to revitalize the economy of a declining city. He even thought about it and came up with several plans. Filming locations for various types of films to complete urban transformation...

At that time, I am afraid that there will be "North Drift" gathering here? How can there be no vitality!

In short, as long as you are willing to invest and your resources are willing to tilt, you are still afraid of not being able to develop?

In particular, Abner can "observe" the city's "fate trend" at any time, and choose the most "safe" "fate tributaries" for guidance.

At the same time as he was thinking about it, Abner was about to board the carriage and go to the theater in Hillston.

But at this moment, he suddenly had some peculiar "premonition", so he stopped and asked the driver to wait for a while.

This is his "passive prophecy" ability suddenly gave a foreshadowing, so that he must buy the newspaper in the hands of the newsboy in a few minutes, and then "fate" will develop in his favor.

Abner is no stranger to this feeling. When he was still an ordinary person, "Pure White Eye" actually used "passive prophecy" to influence him subtly.

For example, on the first day of his "traveling", he suddenly intervened in Hugh's task, and also generously told the other party the "acting method", except that he himself had a good impression of Hugh, the original Tarot Society "trial" miss, and "reader" "The path itself also has the characteristics of "showing love", and it is also a very important reason to follow the "prophecy" subconsciously, to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages.

It's just that he didn't know at that time that it was the influence of "Pure White Eye" on him, and thought it was his own decision.

It was not until he became a "knower" and further deepened the application of "Pure White Eye" that he was faintly aware of the clues.

"However, what was the benefit of being close to Hugh in the first place?

"Let her and Forsi become my friends?

"Or, let me get rid of the unreal feeling in the early stage of crossing, and have a 'tie'?"

When Abner was thinking about it, a newsboy turned around from the corner. His business seemed to be doing well today. It was just in the afternoon.

Seeing this, Abner knew that the person in his "prophecy" was him, so he beckoned to him.

The clear voice of the newsboy also sounded, and the tone was slightly uneasy: "Sir, there is only one copy of "Tasok Miscellaneous" left..."

"Tusok Miscellaneous" is a tabloid, only publishing some chores in the anecdote, because it hardly uses exaggerated headlines to create gimmicks, so the sales are very average.

The reason why it has not closed down as a weekly magazine is that it is rumored that the boss behind it is constantly subsidizing money to operate...

However, Abner knew that the real boss of the tabloid was actually Stuart, a senior deacon of the Church of the Storm, and most of the miscellaneous news in the newspaper were stories about the more enlightened Storm believers' families. He seemed to want to express himself through this. Some viewpoints, unfortunately, have too little influence.

Speaking of which, Abner would know about it, or Hugh would tell him.

Just over a month ago, on the night he and Princess Vera met privately, Hugh received an urgent task to recover a stolen seal.

The seal is said to be the seal of the Gustav dynasty of Intis, but it was stolen during the exhibition, which made the "punisher" in charge of security humiliated, so he also sent Stuart to join in and formed a team with the military. Joint Investigation Team.

At that time, Stewart relied on his own "backtracking" ability and the help of his newspaper reporter to discover the house rented by the thief and retrieve the lost seal overnight.

Unfortunately, the thief managed to escape in the end, no one even really saw his face, and had no idea who he was, and why he stole the seal and then gave it up.

Since Ristuart used his reporters in this case, Hugh knew of the Tussock Miscellany of course, and later told Abner.

While thinking about this, Abner took out a coin and gave it to the newsboy, and bought the newspaper.

Then he got into the carriage and read the paper on the way to the theatre.

Those family love stories Abner simply swept away and quickly settled on an ad:

"At 10 am this Wednesday, the private museum at 16 Pinster Street, North District opened..."

If the hunch is correct, it should be it... Is there anything that will benefit me on display in this private museum?

And ~lightnovelpub.net~ has only one advertisement in the entire newspaper... Is it because the sales volume is too low, no one wants to spend money on advertisements, or is this museum actually an affiliate of the newspaper?

Maybe someone should look into it first...

Abner, thoughtful, quickly arrived at the theater. After getting out of the carriage, he entered through the back door, and soon saw Hugh, who was arranging for reporters and film critics.

Speaking of which, because the "film and television industry" is just emerging, most of the current film critics are unprofessional, and even a large part of them are "children" with rhythm "trained" by Abner in advance...

After all, the position of public opinion must be occupied in advance... As long as some authoritative film critics are raised, and then authoritative film and television journals are established, it is even less likely that other competitors want to surpass their own company.

On the other hand, Hugh was finally relieved to see Abner appearing. She felt that hosting such a scene was more tiring than fighting with Beyonders.

However, she still pulled Abner aside first, stood on tiptoe, looked at him for a long time with a very complicated expression, and then said excitedly and sincerely happy for the other party: "The ceremony was successful?

"Abner, have you become a demigod?"
