The Modern Age of the Mysterious

v1 Chapter 166: Features of the necklace

"The Modern Age of the Mysterious (

"Deputy captain, in your room now..."

Solomon is not a stupid person, but after listening to Sean's narration, he has the feeling of walking into a labyrinth with no way out: "What... what do you mean?"

The young man looking for the vice-captain had left.

Sean has basically sorted out his thoughts.

Through the round porthole on the door, he pointed to Vivian, who was sitting in Solomon's room, demure, and Sean said, "She is the vice-captain Edward."

Solomon had a pale smile on his face: "Mr. Dirac, are you joking?"

Shawn shook his head and said firmly: "It's very simple - whoever wears that emerald necklace will become the next Vivian..."

Solomon looked at Sean with his lips parted.

As a reporter who has been involved in mysterious news in New York City, Sean talked about these strange things without any identity conflict: "The first witness, Miss Sissi, has disappeared.

"I now have reason to suspect that the one who killed the first Vivian was Miss Sissi herself.

"She stared at Vivian and the necklace on her chest in the restaurant, so she stole a sharp boning knife, found an opportunity to kill the first Vivian, and hid the emerald necklace in her own on...

"It was the identity of the first witness that gave her the perfect disguise and kept her from being searched."

Solomon swallowed his saliva, his eyes widened, and he looked a little funny. But Sean didn't want to laugh, he continued: "Then, after nightfall, Miss Sissi, who wore an emerald necklace, became the second Vivian, and was shot to death on the porch..."

"So..." The detective's eyes were empty and revealing the meaning of struggle, as if hoping that he could wake up from such a nightmare, "So, that Vivian with the 4 mark on her hand is Miss Qian Qian? "

Sean nodded: "That's right."

Then, Sean sighed: "Last night, we made a mistake - we thought too simple and optimistic.

"This is the mistake of Ivan and I..." Sean's eyes were cold, "As people who have been involved in the mysterious world, the thinking and actions we take are too simple.

"Thinking that as long as you lock the emerald necklace, everything will be fine.

"Totally overlooked one thing...

"That's the effect of the necklace itself on people!"

Solomon finally followed Sean's train of thought, he nodded: "According to what you said, it is true. This necklace will lure people to kill the owner, and then take it for himself...

"Last night, Deputy Captain Edward was bewitched by the necklace, he opened the safe and put it on...

"So, he became the third Vivian."

Sean nodded and glanced around vigilantly: "If this conjecture is taken, then everything that has happened so far has an explanation."

While narrating to Solomon, Sean also informed his teammates of his reasoning through playing cards and the crimson bond.

The content of the narrative is more concise, because they have experienced many strange events, and they don't need to say too much to understand what Sean means.

After learning of Sean's conjecture, Evan and Moonlight, who were standing in the room, looked at each other...

They both saw a hidden chill in each other's eyes, and unconsciously moved a little further away from "Vivian".

Instead, Olivia didn't have any emotional fluctuations and stood by the door with a blank expression.

Evan Burns couldn't help squinting his eyes to observe the emerald: it was a mysterious and completely restrained thing...

However, it is more terrifying than many mystical heritages.

Outside the cabin, the nerves are considered a powerful Solomon detective among ordinary people, looking at Sean as if asking for help: "Then what should we do?"

Sean, who had been thinking all the time, suddenly realized that he had made a fatal mistake.

He turned around suddenly and opened the door!

Evan Burns was already holding a ghost fire knife in his hand at this time, his fists were clenched very tightly, staring at the emerald in Vivian's chest, as if he was going through some kind of huge struggle!

Sean threw out the spiritual substance, pulled Vivienne out of the room, and cursed inwardly: "Damn! Why do I think the necklace won't affect the explorer?!"

The power of mysterious things never evades people who are involved in mystery!

"Wait..." Sean realized something and let go of the hands that he planned to hold Vivian.

"What about me?" Sean made Shengen light up and began to reflect, "Won't I pull out a pistol and kill her myself?!"

With such a stunned effort, Solomon next to him had a strange look and put his hand into his jacket...

Sean hurriedly grabbed the detective's arm. Moonlight played a stagnant tune, restraining Evan who was walking out. Olivia followed Sean's order and rushed out...

However, Olivia, who is a candle holder, immediately focused on Sean.

Just as Sean's team is in a frenzy with the new changes, a fishing gun stabs Vivian from behind.

Olivia, who was a step late, knocked over the crew with the spear and crossbow with her knees.

The girl spat out a mouthful of blood in shock, dyeing the front and the emerald on her chest red.

The number "3" appeared in the palm of her left hand.

——

Looking at the three Vivian corpses lined up side by side in the refrigerator. Sean's team, Solomon, and the three crew members all fell silent.

The atmosphere dropped to freezing point.

Only Sean, who has the strongest soul, can shoulder the responsibility of continuing to explore the depths of the fog: "This..." He pointed to the number 3 in the hand of the newly dead Vivian, "There is no doubt that it is a countdown. .

"When the countdown in the hands of the dead Vivian becomes zero..." Sean looked back at everyone, "I'm afraid what will happen... More terrible than the current situation.

"Everyone, what we have to do is very simple." Sean's voice and eyes revealed the firmness in his heart, "We will do everything possible to ensure that no more 'Vivian' will die.

"Next..." If the previous case was led by Solomon, then Sean at this moment has become the leading person, "Let me arrange the division of labor.

"Mr. Solomon, you are more prestigious, and the crew members still need your explanation and explanation-especially to explain the situation to the captain.

"After all, we'll probably need his help later."

Continental Detective nodded. His face was ashen at the moment, and he didn't say a word.

Sean raised the emerald necklace in his hand: "Everyone, I will ask Mr. Evan, the explorer, to find a way to deal with this thing that bears a terrible curse.

"If we make any progress, we will keep you all informed.

"I hope God bless you."

——

Evan Burns' attainments in the occult are the highest in Sean's team.

However, he could not dispel the curse on the mysterious heritage.

He has a secret technique to change the negative effects of C-rank and lower mystical heritage, however, this secret technique cannot be applied to this emerald necklace.

At this moment, Sean walked to the deck with the emerald necklace.

In addition to Moonlight and others, Sean asked for two more people from the crew.

The group of six had serious expressions and hurry, which attracted the attention of many passers-by.

"The necklace has the power to deceive people." Sean said to the two crew members while walking, "Also, its seductive ability seems to be getting stronger and stronger.

"You may want to **** the necklace from my hand~lightnovelpub.net~If this happens, we will subdue you."

"Besides..." Sean turned his head and looked at his teammates, "If I put on the necklace, you must stop me in time..."

The reason for bringing ordinary people is because Sean vaguely noticed some laws surrounding the necklace.

On the way to the porthole, Sean could clearly feel that the necklace exuded a strange charm.

That charm gave him an urge to wear it...

Sean struggled to focus his mind against this urge.

"My mental power is much stronger than ordinary people..." Sean narrowed his eyes with some difficulty, "No wonder Deputy Captain Edward couldn't help opening the safe last night..."

When Sean couldn't hold it, he handed the necklace to Moonlight, and he walked among several people—

The person holding the necklace is in charge of resisting the temptation to wear it, and those around him are in charge of monitoring his state...

This is a method that can temporarily limit the necklace, but the process of resisting temptation consumes a lot of mental energy, and Sean's team cannot continue to use this method.

During the short journey to the porthole, a crew member suddenly becomes eccentric, desperate to **** the necklace.

However, he was subdued in an instant.

Finally, I got out of the cabin on the bridge and came to the porch where I could see the sea and the blue sky.

Sean nodded to Evan.

The latter's left hand shimmered, and a well-built pigeon appeared in his hand.

Sean and Evan put the emerald necklace on the pigeon's feet properly.

Throwing the dove into the air, it **** its wings and flies in the direction the stern is pointing.

This carrier pigeon will cross half the Atlantic Ocean, fly to New York City, and fly to the Explorers Center.
