Mystery: Start with the Reader Chapter 848

"Who is it?" Although Audrey asked aloud, she was sure that the person outside the bedroom was definitely Mr. Tower. After all, there would be no one else who knocked on the door at this time.

"It's me, Miss Audrey... Can I come in?" Abner's thick voice came from outside.

Audrey was startled. She didn't expect that the other party would dare to answer so loudly... But after waiting for more than ten seconds, she didn't hear the reprimands of her servants and bodyguards, and she didn't hear Susie's cry. I understand what means Mr. Tower must have used to keep the movement on their side from being noticed by others...

To be honest, Mr. "Ta"'s ability is really terrible... Fortunately, although he has a bad reputation, he is quite upright, and he has been following a lady closely without relying on being "invisible"... Before entering my room at night, I also greeted politely...

That's right, if he was really a wretched person, Hugh and Fors wouldn't be so close to him.

While thinking about it, Audrey sorted out her clothes, then stood up and said in the direction of the door, "Please come in."

As soon as she finished speaking, a figure passed through the wooden door and entered the bedroom.

"Mr. Tower, it seems that you are very skilled at knocking on the lady's door in the middle of the night." Audrey's eyes turned slightly and she joked, dispelling the strange feeling of meeting "netizens" in reality.

"No, on the contrary, it's usually women who knock on my windows late at night..." Abner replied "sincerely".

It's a fact after all.

"Hugh or Fors?" Audrey asked pointedly. Tested Mr. Tower's attitude towards his two friends, and wanted to know which one he liked.

"All." Abner replied simply, but did not explain much. .

Although Forsi never knocked on the window, she teleported to her bed...

Audrey, who quietly used the "Mind Reader" ability, was unable to read any of Abner's attitudes. Knowing that the other party had the means to restrain the "Audience" approach, she no longer bothered about this issue, and instead asked: "Mr 'Tower', when did you know I was 'Justice'?"

I knew it before I crossed... Abner smiled and said: "Miss Justice, you have entrusted Hugh and Fors to inquire about the information of Lieutenant General Hurricane Qilingers; you bought the information from Hugh. Roselle's diary, a few pages flowed from my hands; I was there when Zilingus assassinated Duke Negan, and noticed your report to Earl Hall..."

Before he could finish speaking, Audrey pulled out a "polite" smile and laughed at herself: "It turns out that I have so many flaws... Fortunately, I thought I was disguised well..."

After speaking, she directly brought this topic and talked about the theme of this "date": "Mr. 'Tower', can we start exploring the 'collective subconscious sea'?

"Also, have you completed the items or secret techniques that you promised me to develop that can travel in dreams?"

Abner nodded slightly, took out a giant dragon scale and handed it to Audrey, and said at the same time, "I have developed a secret technique that suits you.

"After that, I will teach you while you explore the dream here.

"As for the scales, it is an item that assists in casting spells, which can improve the success rate of secret spells."

Audrey took the scale and looked at it for a while, and found that it was different from the ugly Yalong scales in her warehouse. The surface was crystal clear and dreamy and beautiful, which was very in line with her aesthetic for similar items.

In fact, Abner specially adjusted its appearance when he made this item, and designed it according to the scale pattern of "King of the North" Julian...

"Mr. Tower, what do I need to pay for this item and the supporting secret technique?" Audrey thought for a while, and felt that the reward should be made clear in advance, so as not to keep thinking about it.

In response, Abner was already prepared and asked with a smile, "Do you know Suhit Bank?"

"I know... my dad is the third largest shareholder of that bank." Audrey knew that this was one of her family's properties at a moment's notice, but asked strangely, "Mr. start this?"

"The reward I want is... to replace Earl Hall's agent at Suhit Bank." Abner made his own request.

According to the information provided by Selo, Earl Hall's agent in Intis is very close to the Delean family, and it is likely that at a critical moment, he would go against the earl's neutral policy and make some decisions privately...

Of course, such uncontrollable factors must be eliminated.

Audrey didn't expect Mr. Tower to make such a request, so she thought for a while before she said, "Can I ask the reason?"

"Because he may have been bribed and hindered my plan..." Abner did not hide it from her, and told the situation of Suhit Bank in detail.

The Surrey family...Mr "Tower" for that Miss Fanny Surrey? Audrey nodded thoughtfully, then smiled, lifted her skirt, and bowed, "I will try my best to help you accomplish this goal."

This is both for Mr. Tower and to help Dad. After all, if the manager really intervenes in the battle between the big Intis family, Dad will also be passive because of this... Naturally, the sooner such worms are cleaned up, the better! Audrey thought so.

After discussing this matter, Abner stopped talking and said with a gentle smile, "Miss Audrey, can I have the honor to invite you on a dream adventure?"

After speaking, he made a standard dance invitation.

Audrey pursed her lips, took the blue cloak hanging on the coat rack next to her, draped it over her body, and put her palm on Abner's hand.

Immediately afterwards, the surrounding scenery changed. The familiar dresser and bed had long since disappeared, replaced by a meadow, and hounds were running fast on the grass, chasing a fox.

Among them, the first one was a golden retriever, and she was far behind the other hounds...

This is not the real world... this is... Susie's dream? Audrey made a judgment in an instant, and was surprised that she remained awake without using any means.

"The first lesson of this exploration of the mystery of dreams is how to stay awake in dreams..." Abner's voice sounded in her ears, and explained the principles and techniques of lucid dreaming in simple terms.

Audrey nodded as she listened, and at the same time looked at Susie, who was constantly winning "victory" on the grass, and thought: It seems that Susie has always been very concerned about her being eliminated in the "Fox Hunting" training... um, As a "psychiatrist", as Susie's good friend, I have to enlighten her after I go back.

——Susie is not a qualified hunting dog, so it became a gift from Earl Hall when he bought a foxhound.

Abner didn't care what Audrey was thinking. After he explained this part of the knowledge, he walked to the edge of the grass and came to the front of a "door" - that was the "entrance and exit" of this dream. ".

Abner held Audrey with one hand. Reach out to hold the handle with one hand, twist it slightly, and pull it back.

The corridor of the Hall family castle immediately came into their sight.

Gu Feng

The main building of this castle has a history of hundreds of years, and many places still retain the features of the past, especially the corridors - it has no gas wall lamps, and the walls are set with candlesticks made of silver or bronze. , there are candles of varying numbers on it, emitting a dim yellow light, illuminating the entire corridor, giving people a feeling of being haunted at any time.

The dream has even reproduced these... That means that this is actually everyone in the manor... Well, the collective subconscious of everyone including Susie? Does each room represent a dream? Audrey glanced left and right, had some guesses in her heart, and asked Abner for confirmation, and finally got a positive answer.

Then, while talking about the spell model that entered the collective subconscious sea, Abner walked with Audrey on the carpet that stretched out under his feet, and soon came to a few doors that gave Audrey a strong desire to explore. forward.

This is Mom and Dad's bedroom, this is Hibbert's bedroom, this is Anne's room...

The classical doors with reliefs, under the dim candlelight, look extraordinarily mysterious, making people want to know what is hidden behind them.

As her thoughts turned around, Audrey was eager to try, and wanted to explore the spiritual world of the owner behind each door.

But vaguely, she was repulsed by such a move.

At this time, Abner's voice also sounded again:

"In the dream state, you must know how to restrain yourself and respect others.

"Greedily exploring the hearts of others, digging out the privacy and secrets, and in the end, it may only backfire on oneself!

"This is a very simple truth: everyone has some dark and bad thoughts more or less, but they control them well and don't let them affect their own behavior. In this case, if If you are obsessed with digging out these thoughts and digging out the ugly parts under the mask, you will be very easy to be disappointed with human nature and be infected by all kinds of negative consciousness...

"It's okay for us to be at a low level now, but when we acquire divinity, we will gradually become crazy without knowing it.

"So unless necessary, don't dig out the secrets in the depths of other people's hearts...

"The reason why I chose Susie as the starting point for this 'journey' just now is because her heart is relatively simple, and there is no dark side or privacy..."

At the same time as Abner warned, he also shared the magic structure of the dream secret technique about how to penetrate into the isolated island of other people's minds.

Audrey, who had a similar feeling before, nodded her head frequently, but after the other party's explanation ended, she said with a strange expression: "Mr. Tower, you seem to know a lot about Susie..."

This doesn't sound right... Abner stopped, looked at Audrey a few times, and then took a step back, and said casually, "Actually, I know you well too."

"What do you know about me?" Audrey asked in surprise.

"For example, the story of 'Audrey, a beautiful girl detective and her assistant Susie'..." Abner said "seriously".

Audrey's face froze, and she blurted out, "You know this so well?" In her impression, she only thought about it with Susie.

At this time, Abner pulled Audrey in a blue cloak and walked along the corridor to the end.

And here, it was Audrey's own room.

"Of course I know from here..." Abner pointed to the carved door of the room and smiled.

"Why is there my room?" Audrey asked in confusion.

"The last time you encountered the lady in the crystal cave, the exploration was the 'collective subconscious sea' that entered from the edge of your own dream...

"It's natural to repeat your previous route this time." Abner replied with a smile.

"That is to say... In reality, I actually fell asleep?" Audrey just woke up. It should be only a spirit body who entered the dream.

"Don't worry, I put you back on the bed and covered you with a quilt..." Abner said "kindly", "Now this door will be opened by you, using the 'secret technique' I taught you just now. ."

I won't be relieved if you say that... Audrey pursed her lips. Audrey knew that this was just some "bad taste" of Mr. Tower, so she didn't really care. What she cares more about now is that she will dream what……

I hope it's not too naive, or it will be teased by Mr. Tower again...

After taking a few deep breaths, Audrey operated the secret technique in her palm according to the previous teaching, and then held the door.

As the wooden door opened, the scene inside was gradually exposed.

I saw inside the door, Audrey held up a torch and gave an impassioned speech to the crowd. Then she led the people like a hero. After a fierce battle, she defeated the demons who wanted to invade and rescued the two who were kidnapped by the demons. a princess...

And the face of the invading demon looked a bit like Abner.

Seeing this scene, Audrey couldn't help covering her face.

"It turned out to be a 'hero' dream... It's nothing to be ashamed of... But next time the 'villain' would be better off with a different actor..." Abner nodded and said "euphemistically".

Audrey calmed down and analyzed with a serious expression: "This may be because I have always been envious of your title of 'hero detective', so I subconsciously want to surpass you~www.mtlnovel.com~ The 'mapping' in the dream... In fact, I have great respect for you... Mr. 'Tower'."

over me? Looking at the posture in this dream, you actually want to trample me under your feet, right? And those two "princesses", if you look closely, they look like Hugh and Fors... Abner glanced at Audrey who was still "seriously" analyzing, but he didn't reveal it.

Next, when the two of them came to the edge of this dream, above a cliff.

Looking out, the gray emptiness spreads, and the bottom is so deep that it seems that there is no bottom.

Last time, Audrey relied on her own realization of the ladder, and just then went deep into the sea of ​​collective consciousness... But this time, Abner taught her the final structure of the secret technique:

A projection of a spiritual dragon!

It stands to reason that, unlike Abner, a "bone dragon" with a demigod level, it is almost impossible for Audrey to show the phantom of a "spiritual dragon" on her own... That's why Abner gave her that one. Beautiful dragon scales as a medium.

And this dragon scale was actually provided by Miss Crosfia.
