Battle of the Twin Cities: The Ninth Councilor

Chapter 188 Seraphine's Ability Show
Early the next morning, Marcos woke up on time, got up to wash, and then went out.

He has two most important things to do today.

One is to find an expert for Rosa and the others, and the other is to go to the parliament building and talk to Heimerdinger about the speech on Evolution Day.

Heimerdinger had intended for Marcos to give a speech before, but Marcos did not give a clear answer at that time. Today is the time.

He ate something casually on the side of the road to satisfy his hunger, and Marcos left twelve golden wheels to pay for the breakfast after repeated rejections from the shopkeeper.

When he arrived at the video store run by the Yiloer couple, the young couple just brought Seraphine to open the door.

Seraphine followed Xia Sha, with a pair of earplugs in her ears, humming an unknown melody in a low voice.

The sound is not loud, and Marcos can't hear it very clearly, but the style of the music is very soothing and comfortable to listen to.

"Good morning, Sheriff Marcos." Yiloel was opening the door, and Xia Sha saw Marcos first, and greeted with a smile: "Wait a moment, you go to the store first, and I'll buy you some breakfast."

"I ate it on the way, so you don't need to bring mine." Marcus said casually, looking at Seraphine, before she could speak, the little girl replied immediately: "I made up this song myself. There are no tracks."

So, the ability of magical hearing is a bug. Before she even opened her mouth, the little girl knew what she wanted to ask, and instantly lost the desire to continue communicating.

Marcus opened his mouth, and Seraphine continued: "My father wants to look after the store, and he doesn't have time. My mother doesn't know much about sound transmission and other academics, so she can't help."

"..." Marcus' face was dark, he didn't ask a single question, and he had all the answers.

He looked at the earplugs in Seraphine's ears, and the little girl replied directly: "It's almost useless, it can only slightly block some actual sounds from the outside world."

As she said that, her little face wrinkled: "Don't look at it being tightly stuffed in your ears, in fact, I can still hear some sounds that are not very high decibels, it can only be regarded as some kind of psychological hint, which distracts me from paying attention Another voice."

Marcus tilted his head, and Seraphine pointed to the earplugs and said, "That's right, it's because the actual sounds from the outside world are getting quieter, and my attention is more distracted by hearing them clearly, but the effect has become weaker and weaker." , I am about to adapt to the current environment. The day I fully adapt, the earplugs will completely lose their effect."

Marcus nodded, and Ilore just opened the door at this time. He has long been accustomed to his daughter's seemingly rude behavior. Anyway, no matter how much he reprimanded him, it was useless. Seraphine had already expected it before she even spoke. What do I want to say, like now...

Seraphine followed her parents into the video store, turned her head and made a face for Marcos, and whispered, "My dad scolded me in my heart just now, and I heard it again."

Ilore: "..."

Seraphine tilted her head and discerned carefully: "My mother praised you for being handsome in her heart just now. If she hadn't known my father back then, she...uh...I can't say the next thing. My mother already wants to beat me, I So does Dad."

She took a few steps back, and the Yiluoer couple glared at her, feeling annoyed and amused.

Because the magic hearing can hear the voices of the souls of everyone around her, Seraphine was exposed to the world of adults prematurely, making her mature much earlier than ordinary children.

Although he is only twelve or thirteen years old, he already looks like an adult in his late twenties, but he still retains a little bit of childlike innocence, and likes to play pranks and speak out what is in other people's hearts.

The others here generally refer to the Yiluoer couple and those customers who come to the store to consume.

Yes, although Seraphine was troubled by magic hearing, it didn't mean that this ability had no advantages at all.

At least when she was in the store, she could always 'hear' the psychological price of the customers and tell her parents secretly, and then Yiloer and the others could use this information to make sure that the customers who came to the door were determined.

Since its opening, there has hardly been a situation where half a day of talking was wasted, and customers turned away as a result.

Marcus raised his eyebrows, and Seraphine said: "Well, don't look at me being cheerful in front of you, in fact, I am almost driven crazy by the voices in my ears in private, so you have to hurry up Get out the magic hearing equipment, otherwise I will show you depression on the spot!"

Marcus shrugged, and Seraphine jumped up and said, "What do you mean I'm not your daughter? Even if I'm depressed, it's none of your business? Didn't you always want to recognize me as a goddaughter? Doesn't my father agree? Actually It's okay if he doesn't agree, I'll be an adult in six years, wouldn't it be better for us to be husband and wife in one step? So you have to be responsible to your future wife!"

"Nini!" The Yiluoer couple stopped at the same time, and it would become more and more outrageous if the child continued to speak without restraint.

"Mom." Seraphine looked at her mother Xia Sha: "Didn't you always want a good sheriff's son-in-law?"

Before Xia Sha responded, she turned her head and looked at Marcos again: "What do you mean I have low EQ, young, and ignorant? I call it venting, do you understand venting? I have to take what I heard Use this method to empty a part, if I hide all the sounds I hear in my head, I will go crazy!"

The longer I was in contact with Seraphine, the more I realized the horror of magic hearing.

It has a wide range and is uncontrollable. Whether you want to hear the voices of other souls or not, but the countless noisy noises rush into your ears crazily, and you can't listen to them.

Even piercing the eardrums and physically turning oneself into a deaf person will not help, those voices will spare the hearing and resound in the mind.

In front of her, all the secrets in my heart can't be hidden, unless it is covered by some ability more powerful than magical hearing or it has no soul itself.

Marcus shook his head helplessly, and Seraphine immediately said: "If it's just to go to the research institute to cooperate with research and development after closing the store, my dad can indeed go."

The adults didn't say much, Seraphine said to herself, and settled the matter on her own initiative: "Then it's settled. After the video store closes at night, my dad will report to the research institute to assist in the development of the project. After all, he has long had enough of my rude behavior, and he wished that the shielding device could be researched sooner."

Marcus thought to himself: You still know that you are rude...

"Of course I know it's rude to do this. I'm just young, and it's not that I have a bad brain, but I can't control it. Like I said just now, if I don't find an outlet, I will be tortured to the point of madness." You don't want your fiancée to become a lunatic at a young age, do you?" Sure enough, Seraphine heard Marcus's voice again.

Marcus: "???"

Girl, why are you talking about this kind of thing more and more?
