Chapter 1248 Ouija board stone statue and camera
"Luvia, here's the towel, how did it go?"
"Still can't see clearly."
The hair on her forehead was wet against her skin, Luvia shook her head:
"This is no longer the interference of miracle elements. I suspect that it has the ability to counter divination."
"You take a break first, I'll give it a try through psychic communication."
For souls that haven't reached their end, channeling is usually simple and effective, but that's only for ordinary souls.But this time, Shad's "Soul Echo" didn't work at all for the first time. He didn't know if he couldn't communicate with Mr. Thomas Granger at all, or the other party rejected Shad's "invitation".
"It's okay, there is still a way."
Luvia thought about it for a while:
"Use the Ouija board."
"But what's the use of Ouija boards if you can't communicate with the soul?"
"No, no, it's not a Ouija board that communicates with souls, but a corpse that communicates."
She rummaged through the suitcase she brought and found the not-so-large oak board with 29 Carsonrick letters engraved on the board, and the etched marks were painted with red paint.Matching with the Ouija board is a wooden pointer inlaid with a round glass ball in the center. With the combination of the two, simple psychic games can be played.
"I learned a new skill from the Prophet's Guild in Randall's Valley, and it's time to give it a try. Shade, don't you know how to do puppetry? Now let the bones sit up."
So Xia De controlled the skeleton to sit up, the skeleton's right arm was stretched out, and the index finger bone and Luvia's fingers were pressed together on the Ouija board.Xia De lit Luvia's special spice on the side, and the dark green smoke immediately filled the inside of the skeleton, as if filling its muscles.
As the fortune teller read the incantation, the skeleton controlled by Xia De actually trembled, and then the skull of the skeleton lifted up, and a gray mist faintly appeared in the eye sockets.
"Are you Thomas Granger?"
Luvia immediately asked, and the small pointer on the Ouija board, which was pressed by both the dead and the living, quickly pointed to three letters, which together meant "yes".
"Where did your soul go?"
Luvia asked again, and the pointer quickly changed its position again, spelling out the word "don't know".
"As expected."
Luvia muttered softly, and asked her real question:
"Where are the clues about the location of your soul?"
This time, the small pointer of the Ouija board did not move immediately, and it took half a minute to slowly move the fingers of the dead and the living to different letters.
Shard put those letters together, meaning:
[I-guard-protect-this-land-land, I-will-appear-present-in-the-land-crazy-crazy-place. 】
"In other words, are you still looking for the local Crazy Land?"
Shad asked:
"Miss Bernice's manor, the petrified area in the creek forest outside the city, plus St. Perry's cemetery. I encountered three crazy lands in the Randall Valley, but I didn't run into Mr. Granger. "
The girl with purple eyes raised her eyebrows:
"This is easy to explain, because these three problems are not serious. In the first place, Miss Lassus often cleans up the evil spirits caused by the land, so the pollution is constantly weakened. The performance of the petrified forest in the second place is The weakest one, it seems that the problem has only just occurred, and even the petrified corpse will take a long time to swallow. Although the third place is dangerous, it is still restricted and sealed by St. Perry, so theoretically speaking, it is the safest."
"It makes sense, the time I encountered in the Emerald Dream, the problem was serious enough, so Mr. Granger showed up on his own initiative. Next, I still have to find the craziest piece of land that already exists here? "
As Xia De was talking, he suddenly felt the strength of the trembling bones become stronger, and he could hardly control it:
"You can't ask any more questions. If you ask any more questions, this skeleton will become an undead creature. Mr. Thomas Granger most likely died for a noble reason, and we cannot desecrate his body."
Luvia nodded, and Xia De controlled the skeleton that was about to lose control, and lay back in the coffin again.Quickly closed the lid of the coffin, and then put the round emblem on his chest on the lid.The round emblem is used to detect witches, and the bone white border around it is a top-level alchemy item made by Augustus priests, which can effectively suppress the generation of undead creatures.
"Can you divination the location of the Crazy Land within the Randall Valley?"
"Oh, Xia De, I have said it many times, don't think that divination is omnipotent. Besides, the crazy earth is the effect of the earth's essence shifting and flowing out. Why do you think that my divination can reach this point? Divination with special coins should be possible, but we have no coins now."
"Then just wait, at least the final goal has been determined, just wait for Mr. Granger to appear."
Xia De sighed slightly, and the clue was interrupted, but not completely.
While talking, from the corner of the eye, he looked at the middle-aged stone statue next to Miya:
"Luvia, what do you think of this stone statue?"
Luvia turned around and looked at the sitting stone statue:
"this?"
She put her hand on the shoulder of the stone statue, waited for a while and said to Xia De:
"It's just an ordinary stone statue."
"Is it possible that this is also a corpse, and it is an innocent person who died because of the curse of the crazy earth?"
Xia De asked, making sure that the coffin was no longer shaking before coming to the stone statue:
"When I saw this sitting stone statue for the first time, I felt that it was not right. After all, whether it was the folds of the character's face, the details of the hair, or the traces of the clothes because of sitting down, they were all too realistic, and the face of the stone statue The expression is too real. I can't even imagine this expression of regret, relief, and pilgrimage. When I first came to Randall Valley, I didn't know about the crazy land, so I didn't guess it was Stone statues made of living people."
"I can't divine it, it's not a corpse at all, it's a stone."
Luvia frowned:
"If you directly divine the source of the stone, the only result you can get is the earth. Your guess may also be correct, but I prefer to investigate it as a real statue."
"You mean, the Randall Valley Stonemasons' Guild?"
Luvia nodded:
"Investigate it as a corpse. We have no clues for the next step. If you are interested in this, you might as well go to the local stonemason association for information. If such a realistic and perfect stone statue is the work of local stonemasons, it will definitely not be unrecorded of."
Xia De also agrees with this view, besides, he himself has a plan to go to the Stonemasons Association.Margaret was dealing with the decades-long debt dispute between the Stonemasons Association and the Anjou family. There was also a strange legend that the Stonemasons Association could make "moving stone figures".Since the clues about "Thomas Granger" have been suspended for the time being, it is better to go to the Stonemasons Guild to investigate, at least it will not be a complete waste of time.
The sitting stone statue was almost completely integrated with the stone chair under the body, and Shad didn't want to destroy either of them, nor did he want to move the stone statue, which might be a corpse, out of the church.So, he proposed to rent a camera, and after taking pictures of the stone statue, he would take the photo to the Stonemasons Association to inquire.
The use of cameras in this era is far more complicated than the "fool style" used by foreigners in their hometown.Not only the flash light bulbs of magnesium lamps are disposable, but also the replacement of light bulbs should be considered when setting up the flash light. The most troublesome thing is actually the focusing of the lens.
Now there is no auto-focus technology. Cameramen need to adjust the focus behind the black cloth, squinting at the lens, which requires quite professional craftsmanship.
In order to ensure safety and concealment, Shad intends to rent a camera from Tobesk.He took pictures by himself, and he didn't need great skills, as long as he could take pictures of the statue's general appearance.
So Xia De took Mia back to Tobesk, and made an appointment with Luvia to see you at two o'clock in the afternoon.
After returning to Tobesk, I originally planned to go directly to the photo studio to inquire about the rental, but after I went out, I thought of other ways, so I went to Quill Street to find Dorothy.
"You want to rent a camera from the Daily Steambird?"
Ms. Writer's "Hamilton's Detective Stories Collection" is serialized and distributed through the channel of "Steambird Daily", not to mention her father, Professor Louisa, is also one of the shareholders of "Steambird Daily".
She originally planned to finish writing the manuscript for next week's serial at home this morning. Since Xia De rarely came to ask for help, Dorothy was also happy to take Xia De to the newspaper office of "Steambird Daily".
Now she is the most important contributor to the "Steam Bird Daily" newspaper. After coming to the door, she took Xia De directly to the editor-in-chief of the newspaper. She is half-bald and looks like a middle-aged man in his 40s, Mr. Newcastleman.
After explaining his purpose, Mr. Newcastle behind the desk enthusiastically expressed that he could help:
"Detective Hamilton, instead of renting a camera, it is better to buy one. The newspaper office has some obsolete old cameras. Although they can still be used, they are too old and are rejected by our reporters. Since Mr. Hamilton rented the camera for investigation , maybe it will be used in the future. How about buying an old one from us, I can give you a very cheap price."
Although there is suspicion of cleaning up the inventory for the newspaper, Xia De feels that this proposal is not bad.He and Dorothy then went to the warehouse to check the condition of the old cameras.Although they are all old models, there is no problem in using them.
So Xia De made up his mind to buy it, but developing the film still required a darkroom and chemicals.So after negotiating the price, Shade bought the York II camera produced in 15 at the lowest price of 1845 pounds, and got three extra rolls of film and a box of replacement spotlight bulbs.
In addition, he can go to the "Steam Bird Daily" newspaper office to purchase camera consumables at any time, and he can learn camera technology and film developing technology here today.The latter was the cooking skill of photographers, but for Dorothy's sake, Shad was allowed to learn it.
