Whispering Poems.

Chapter 12 Admissions
Dr. Schneider took a sip of the black tea while he was talking, and then looked into the teacup unexpectedly:

"This black tea is very good."

"Churches and colleges?"

Shade didn't bother to pay attention to the former detective's taste in black tea, and what kind of person the former detective was, he was digesting this information.

"Yes, the church can also train ring warlocks. In fact, the formal channels for ring warlock training, at least in my opinion, are the five righteous god churches and three thaumaturgy colleges, other evil god churches, secret societies, ancient Organizations and chaotic groups, and the training methods are either irregular or full of hidden dangers. So, you can meet me during the awakening of talent, it is really lucky for both of us. "

"Then the church."

Compared to the academy where he didn't know his origin, Xia De was actually more interested in a church that could cooperate with the official kingdom of the kingdom.The doctor can also see this kind of thinking, he smiled and shook his head to show his understanding, and explained:

"The academy and the Orthodox Church are not hostile, and they even cooperate occasionally. It's just that the church doesn't like the students of the academy, whether they are correspondence or formal students, they think we are a dangerous machine that attracts trouble."

Raising his eyebrows slightly, seeing that Xia De did not ask, he continued:
"So, for us academic ring warlocks who teach by correspondence, it's not illegal to exist in itself, but it usually doesn't let the church know about our identity and existence. I know, you may be interested in the church, so please answer my question-- "

The corner of the doctor's mouth twitched into a smile:

"Joining the church requires a completely innocent background. Even if you don't have a criminal record, you still need a complete life trajectory to make sure you're not a dangerous person. Can you provide it?"

Bill Schneider himself is a psychiatrist, and at this moment he has some meaning to consult patients.

"You investigated me?"

Shade's words blurted out, but then regretted saying so:
"It's not normal to not investigate."

I thought to myself.

"It's just to investigate some basic information. After all, college admissions also need to determine the identity of the other party. It is impossible for me to recommend dangerous people to the college. But because we are only correspondence, do you understand the meaning of correspondence? Therefore, the requirements for identity are not as good as those of the church. strict."

Dr. Schneider smiled and looked at the young detective sitting opposite:
"The awakening of the ring warlock, the probability affects people's minds, so you will change from the original Shade to the current Shade. After investigating your identity, I realized that when I saw you yesterday, you seemed to be afraid of the world in your eyes. And Dazed, what is going on. For you, the moment you awaken your talent is the real 'awakening', right?"

He probably misunderstood Xia De, who has a problem with IQ, and became Xia De now, but Xia De also liked him to think so, so he pretended to be broken by nodding his head:
"If I take this explanation, go to the church and explain it."

"Of course you can, but I prefer you to first understand the academy and understand what the so-called 'Ring Warlock' is. Isn't it better to make a decision like this? I believe you can understand that at least I'm not a bad person."

Dr. Schneider said, Shade nodded again, what the doctor said made sense.He answered solemnly:
"Well, thank you, Dr. Schneider, I'd like to know about these things first."

The doctor took out the pocket watch from his pocket and took a look:
"We don't have much time. The duration of talent awakening is about 72 hours, but it fluctuates with individual differences. In order to prevent missing time."

"What happens when you become a ring warlock if you are not guided during your awakening?"

Shade interrupted the doctor embarrassedly:
"I'm a little curious about that."

The doctor shook his head indifferently:
"Curiosity is a good thing, it shows that you do not exclude ring magicians and occultism.

You almost don't understand anything, but it's actually more suitable for guidance.People are afraid of the supernatural, they are afraid of the mysterious, and you don't show any rejection, just curiosity, and I'm happy about that.As for your question. I don't have specific data in my hand, I can only tell you that if the ring warlock talent is not awakened during the awakening period, he will not be guided.High probability of going crazy, small probability of brain exploding.Yes, have you ever seen a picture of a hammer breaking a watermelon?Pink and white flying around. "

The doctor asked politely.

"No need to describe, this metaphor is too vivid, I almost saw the picture."

Xia De immediately said that he felt a little sick to his stomach without having breakfast.

"Well, of course, there is a smaller probability that some strange things will happen. This can be discussed later. In short, let you first understand the ring warlock. The simple explanation is not vivid, please follow me."

The doctor stood up.

"Where? To St. Byrons College?"

Xia Deyang showed the college admissions documents in Yang's hands.

"Of course not. We correspondence students are only eligible after the fifth grade to go to the college hidden in the polar ice cap of the old continent. The address of the college is a secret, with some subspace entrances and subspaces attached to the material world. It's about alien populations, and until then we're going to get on with our lives and learn within our boundaries. Remember, Mr. Hamilton, we're adult education, we're correspondence students at the academy."

In other words, even if Shard joins the Academy, he doesn't need to study in a secret location like "Hogwarts".There are pros and cons to this, but at least some freedom while gaining power.

"Now, I'm taking you to find the man who killed Sparrow Hamilton."

The doctor makes the gesture of asking.

"what?"

Shade stood up at once, which was something he didn't expect.

"Yes, I only found out about this when I investigated your identity. Since there are extraordinary and mysterious beings around you, why don't we take this opportunity to help you solve this problem? You may also worry about that murderer. Will the person who died the original Detective Hamilton involve you?"

It must be admitted that even though the original detective had promised not to involve Xia De, Xia De was still worried.

"It's not a very troublesome thing, and the other party doesn't seem to hide the traces of his own actions because Sparrow Hamilton is just an ordinary person. Come with me now, I think we can solve this before lunch. By the way, do you have a pistol?"

the doctor asked again.

"No."

Shad shook his head.

"Then please don't stand in front of me. I promise that as long as you are behind me, there will be no danger today. After all, the opposite is not a ring warlock."

Sparrow Hamilton said before his death that the other party was.

"Ordinary people can't tell the difference, and it's easy to regard all those who can use extraordinary powers as ring warlocks. But for a formal ring warlock, it's easy to tell the difference. After all, that person doesn't have the [Ring of Fortune] at all, and there is no accumulation Spirit, I can't feel the four elements of [miracle] [enlightenment] [blasphemy] [whisper], it's just a lucky occasion to get [relic]"

The doctor paused for a moment, then changed his mind:
"No, it's the unlucky guy."

"You seem to have mentioned a lot of terms just now."

Xia De said, in fact, he has already heard the four elements and [relic], but there is no need to show it at this time.

"It's okay, we can talk while walking."

The career of a detective is very dangerous. In the investigation of the doctor, the former detective Sparrow Hamilton encountered an accident during a certain detective activity.

Presumably to prevent Shard's investigation, Sparrow Hamilton deleted all records of the commission before his death, but the doctor's intelligence network completely restored the incident.

"Speaking of which, you investigated the whole thing in one night?"

Shade still didn't forget to ask, but the doctor didn't answer vaguely, but said to tell him after the matter was over.

"right here."

The two set out from the square in a carriage (which the doctor paid for) and, after a journey of nearly two hours, crossed the city, disembarking at the embankment next to the Auxerre.

As the northern capital of Tobesque, the water system is developed, and inland shipping supports the prosperous steam industry and commercial trade here.

Several rivers pass through the city of Tobesque, of which the Osier is the river that flows north of the city.It is the wet season of summer, and the river is turbulent.

The neighborhood is close to the edge of the city. The doctor said that the city hall has plans to build a new factory area nearby, relying on the river traffic of the Osier River, to find new development opportunities for the city of Tobesque, and to connect the industry in the north of the kingdom. District, also as a supplement to the kingdom's steam locomotive railway network.

But at least for now, there is still a large wasteland nearby.After getting off the car and looking around, in the hazy fog, only the buildings of Tobesque can be seen in the distance.

"In order not to disturb him, we started walking from here, and I noticed that your boots are very suitable for the long journey. Mr. Hamilton, you probably haven't had breakfast. When this is settled, I will treat you to dinner."

The doctor said, carrying his briefcase, and walked into the grass beside the road with Xia De, who was holding a notebook.After a while, the two saw a path.
