my cthulhu game

Chapter 178

Qin Yixian took Chen Qiang and others to the living room, while Mr. Beethoven, who was feeling tired, returned directly to the room with Bai Shaobao.

[Beethoven's Listening Check 7/79 succeeded]

[Bai Shaobao failed the listening test 83/61]

Even though he was still suffering from ear problems, Mr. Beethoven, who had recovered part of his hearing, was still more sensitive than ordinary people.

[Beethoven's agility check was successful 51/75]

The old musician caught Bai Shaobao in time - Bai Shaobao, who was looking around, almost bumped into the guests coming from the other side of the corner.

"Sorry." Bai Shaobao continued, and after realizing that the opposite was a white woman, he immediately switched to English.

"Ah...it's okay." The woman spoke fluent Chinese.She was about 30 years old, with a thick, dictionary-like book under her arm.

Her amber eyes rested on the great musician for a moment.

"Excuse me, are you German?" (German)

The old musician hesitated for a few seconds.He is very clear that his current identity is the art director of "Fortress of Sanity", the Austrian Bedorf.

"Austria," he held out his hand to the woman in a friendly manner, "I am surprised that such German can still be heard in this day and age. I thought I would never hear it again." (German)

Contemporary German has changed slightly from Beethoven's "living" time, but the woman's spoken language has a sense of the past.

"The universe and everything in it is temporary, from the short life of the firefly, to the short life of man, to the short life of the sun," the woman gently shook hands with the great musician, "and so is language." (German. )

[Beethoven's Psychology Test 33/90 success]

The woman must be an occultist, he thought.She behaved appropriately, like the nobles the old musician knew.The old musicians thought that in this new era, such aristocracy no longer existed.

There is no affectation in women's speech.And the old musician also intends to treat each other with sincerity.

"Perhaps," replied the old musician, who, though rebellious, knew how to talk to a well-bred nobleman, "you are right. In terms of the finiteness of life, fireflies, men, and the sun are also good." , language, class, and country, they all have something in common. But who said that a limited life cannot focus on higher things? Keep going, maybe we will encounter miracles.” (German)

"Afterwards we can talk about time slowly," the woman said. "It must have been very rewarding to chat with you. But now, I'm going to meet your friends." (German)

The women leave.After all the vicissitudes, Mr. Beethoven, who was familiar with everything that happened, went straight back to his room, leaving only Bai Shaobao who could not understand a word of German and was at a loss for the mysterious topics between the two parties.

"Mr. Chen..." Bai Shaobao quickly edited a text message to Chen Qiang.

……

In the restaurant of "Annex".

Everyone sits around a long table.Erika Fujiwara, Qin Yixian's fiancée, took Qin Lingxue and Sayoko to prepare dinner, Bai Shaobao and the old musician went to rest first, and only Chen Qiang, Sai Xilu, Gu Shiyin and Isi remained in the fortress of reason.

Finally the German-speaking woman came, and Qin Yixian closed the door.

"It seems that everyone is here," Qin Yixian said, "The guests of the 'Oath Project' will wait until after midnight. Chen Qiang, let me introduce you first."

Qin Yixian pointed to the man sitting on the sofa in the distance: "Attorney Robin Selman, you already know him. He represents 'Golden Dawn'."

"Ms. Virginia Megan from N Network." Qin Yixian cast his eyes on the old lady sitting opposite Chen Qiang. Her face was wrinkled, but her eyes were piercing.

"This is..." Qin Yixian suddenly realized that he did not know this woman representing the "Theosophical Society".

"Ms. Petrovna," the old lady Megan from N Network cleared her throat, she has much more knowledge than Qin Yixian, "I have long heard that the 'Theosophical Society' will send important figures, but I didn't expect you to do it yourself .”

Qin Yixian swallowed and spat.He has never seen it before, but he has heard the name before.

"Miss Petrovna," Qin Yixian said in a slightly softer voice as there were two bosses present, "she was the main contributor to the revival of the 'Theosophical Society' in India 15 years ago. It was her leadership that made the 'Theosophical Society' shine." newborn."

"I'm just following in the footsteps of Madame Blavatsky." The woman smiled.

"It's your turn!" Qin Yixian touched Chen Qiang.

"I, Chen Qiang," Chen Qiang said succinctly, "the boss of 'Fortress of Sanity'."

The old lady Megan frowned. "Petrovna" looked indifferent.

"Although I'm rude, let me ask," Chen Qiang said in English, "Before I came in, I noticed that there was at least one creature that didn't belong to this world hidden in this house, as well as some mysterious objects. They are Did the two bring it? If not, then the house is no longer safe and we may need to move."

"It seems that you also have your own secret." Fujiwara Erika clicked her tongue in surprise as she brought the plate into the room.

"If you're talking about the Byakhee," Madam Megan said calmly, "yes, I'm using it. I don't like being known by the secular world, so I use it as a means of transportation. Just set the coordinates, You can move quickly. About this, Qin Yixian can testify for me."

"Yes," Qin Yixian continued, since Mrs. Meghan doesn't mind saying it, he doesn't care. "When Mr. Robin Selman went to the airport, I measured the moving coordinates of Hokkaido for Mrs. Meghan .”

The Byaki clan mainly serves Hastur, but magicians can also easily use these "interstellar bat monsters" with summoning and binding spells.Byakki can take his master through space, and he is also a brave and capable guardian.

"I will also use those little bats as guards," Mrs. Megan said. "They will sound an alarm when an enemy approaches. Any questions?"

"No, that's good." Chen Qiang fiddled with his cane.

"The other things you see may be my book and crystal ball," Petrovna said, pointing to the big book she put on the dining table. "This book contains some dangerous knowledge. I don't want to I interrupted my research because of some trivial things."

"So you can put down your weapon." Mrs. Meghan glanced at the sword that Chen Qiang was holding tightly.

"Oh, of course. Please allow me to express my sincere apologies." Chen Qiang said, leaning slightly, and the cane disappeared out of thin air in his hand.

[Chen Qiang charm check 12/53 success]

Mrs. Meghan and Miss Petrovna raised their eyebrows at the same time: Chen Qiang's "inadvertently" revealing hand successfully caught their attention.

Chen Qiang secretly planned in his heart.These people are different from the investigators so far. They are stronger and, in a sense, more "cunning".
