Whispering Poems

Chapter 109 The Professor's Sealing Fee
"What kind of thaumaturgy is this? One ring can have such an effect?"

Even Miss Louisa was surprised by this, she asked for some water to taste, and then asked Shad to continue feeding the professor.

Miss Louisa is worthy of being a four-ring magician, she can easily analyze what Xia De failed to analyze:
"Is this really the thaumaturgy of [Gluttony]? It can actually transform emotions to replenish life energy. So that's the case, the healing is achieved by replenishing life force. The increased feeling of fullness in the body is not an illusion, but it really makes the body full. Status. You can learn it with one ring, and it can be used by others. At present, the side effect is that the desire to eat will decline sharply in a short time. This is really hiccup~"

Xia De turned to look at her in surprise, and even stopped feeding the professor.Miss Louisa's face turned red visible to the naked eye, her mouth was tightly shut and her shoulders shrugged upwards, forcefully suppressing the urge to hiccup for the second time:
"What's the matter? Have you never seen a lady hiccup?"

Inexplicably, from her attitude, Xia De thought of how Mia hiccupped after drinking water yesterday, so that she was angry with herself.

"Wake up Professor Manning quickly. I'll go to the bathroom to touch up my makeup. By the way, let the maids downstairs not panic. You should also be careful here."

With that said, she stood up with a blushing face, and walked out of the bedroom without looking back.

Hearing Miss Louisa's footsteps going away, Xia De looked at the small water bottle in his hand:
"It's probably a side effect."

It took Miss Louisa a long time to come back from downstairs, and Xia De consciously did not discuss the hiccup just now.

After confirming that Professor Manning could no longer drink water, Xia De stopped. From the outside, his body did not look so terrible, but the professor still did not wake up.

"Why can't I wake up? Could it be that the mental damage caused by the pen is too serious? Yes, my thaumaturgy cannot treat mental damage."

Shad said, stuffing the bottle back into his pocket.

"I don't think it has anything to do with mental damage, Detective, do you know who can't be woken?"

Miss Louisa glanced at the professor's situation, and then she probably understood the reason.

"People who pretend to be asleep can't wake up, I understand!"

But Miss Louisa shook her head:
"No, the dead can't be woken up. Since the professor can't wake up, then we will kill him."

"Okay, okay, Louisa, stop joking, I'm awake. Young man, can't you leave the old man with the last respect. Hiccup!"

The professor suddenly opened his eyes, and then hiccupped too.He got up from the floor with a pale complexion, his legs were weak and he almost fell, Xia De stretched out his hand to support him:

"Your body hasn't fully recovered yet, Professor, I'm afraid you will have to stay in bed for a long time, and you must abstain from sexual intercourse, and don't engage in mental work for a long time."

Professor Manning covered his face with one hand. He pretended not to wake up because he didn't want to ask such a question. He was almost drowned by Shade's water just now.

"Young man, can you take that pen and leave? You can even loot my house and pretend it never happened. I'm still in a coma."

The old professor's painful expression should have nothing to do with his physical weakness:

"Why do you have to wake me up? Oh, why don't you leave the last decency for me, an old man?"

His originally pale face was flushed because of his weakness, Xia De glanced at Miss Louisa, who beckoned him to speak:

"Actually, we didn't know that you were in a dream with a black cat."

"Oh, well, what do you want to blackmail from me? Take everything, everything you want, as long as you don't tell me about it, take everything you want. I just want the last decency."

"No no, that's not what I meant."

Shad explained:
"I want to talk about what happened today."

"Nothing happened, everything I saw will go to the grave with me! No one wants to know what happened today! Never think about it."

Judging from Professor Manning's current state of excitement, his physical condition and mental state are much better than Xia De thought.

"Very well, then this pen."

Xia De shook the [relic], the professor glanced at it reluctantly, then gritted his teeth and said:
"Take it, take it quickly! It's yours."

Xia De nodded in satisfaction, and then handed the pen to Miss Louisa, who looked very happy while playing with the clerical-level relic [Happy Dream Pen].

He helped Professor Manning to a chair and sat down. At the same time, he opened the curtains to let the bright afternoon sun shine in.Looking at the sunlight, the frail old man narrowed his eyes, his expression relaxed a lot.

"Actually, we still want to know, besides you, does anyone else know about this pen?"

Xia De asked again, and Professor Manning looked at the sun in a daze, and said for a long time:

"How can you tell others about this kind of thing?"

"Then how did you know how to use this pen? The old writer told you?"

Shad wanted to make sure there was nothing weird about this.

"Of course not. It was a dream. I suddenly dreamed of it on the third day after I got the pen. I wanted to try it for some reason."

He was taken aback suddenly:
"So, the previous owner of this pen died... because of this?"

"If you continue to hold it, the end may be worse than death."

Miss Louisa said, but her tone was completely opposite to the gentleness when she spoke to Xia De:
"You should be glad that you passed out just now and didn't see what happened. You are also a professor at the university, how could you not realize the weirdness of this thing?"

"I'm not. I didn't resist the temptation."

The professor lowered his head, Xia De coughed and concluded the matter:

"Professor, since we saved your life, I will give this pen to us as a thank you. At the same time, what happened today will be treated as if it never happened, and no one can tell it."

"I have no problem."

Miss Louisa who got the [Relic] said.

"I have a question!"

The professor raised his head and said suddenly:
"Louissa won't say it, but what if you do?"

Xia De was surprised:
"Why should I say it? You probably guessed it, we are not ordinary people, how could we take the risk of revealing our identities?"

"I've seen a lot of things in my life, you don't have to explain. I'll give you some benefits, it's a hush money, how about it?"

He probably thought that Miss Louisa got the "hush money", but the detective didn't get it, so he might hold a grudge because of it.Xia De wanted to be polite, but unexpectedly, the professor called the fat maid on the second floor and asked the maid to bring something to Xia De.

It was actually a Rhodes card, and it was a Rhodes card with special rules.
