Mystery: I Married the Queen of Mystery.

Chapter 68 The potion finally begins to digest

Odysseus smiled somewhat helplessly when he heard Bernadette's question. "I was always in your sight yesterday. You should have a clear judgment. Everything that happened to me was completely accidental."

This answer was very cunning. Instead of saying "I don't know" or "I'm not sure", he described what happened yesterday.

He was telling the truth, his nose certainly didn't get longer.

It’s just that Odysseus didn’t explicitly say “I don’t know who the thief 'Black Emperor' is”, because he not only knew who the thief "Black Emperor" was, but also knew all the details about him, such as that he had a sister who liked to study machinery.

Bernadette frowned, her brows furrowed in a somewhat heroic manner: "I can sense that this 'royal thief' Black Emperor is the one who stole the bookmark from the Kingdom Museum earlier.

"You've already met him twice in a month. From an occult perspective, this is very unusual."

Odysseus was slightly taken aback. He had never thought of this idea before, but he immediately responded: "Have you ever thought about whether you have some connection with him?"

He took off his mask, revealing a rather handsome face. "Theoretically, I'm a 'Low Sequence'. The connection between you and him should be greater than the connection between me and him, right?"

Bernadette nodded slowly: "That's right..."

Odysseus simply changed the subject and said with a feigned impatience, "I was interrogated the entire night yesterday, and I didn't expect you to interrogate me as soon as we met.

"I took the risk to get information about the bookmark for you yesterday."

Bernadette came back to her senses and said with a smile: "Sorry, I just have some questions in my mind."

Then she asked, "What information did you get?"

"Please buy me lunch."

"No problem." Bernadette said immediately.

"It is said that it is a special item left by Emperor Roselle." Odysseus said carefully, "It also has the ability to counter divination, and it seems that a special spell is needed to activate it.

"Normally it's just an ordinary bookmark, but when it's opened, it seems to record some very important information."

"Start the spell?" Bernadette immediately recalled the two strangely pronounced symbols her father had taught her.

Odysseus took off the hooded cloak worn by the "leader" and waited quietly for more than ten seconds before Bernadette came back to her senses: "Sorry, I thought of something else."

She forced a smile and asked, "Where are you going to eat lunch?"

"Nanmu Ballroom."

"Okay, see you at noon."

"See you at noon."

After confirming the time and place for lunch, Bernadette was once again covered by two huge wings and eventually disappeared into the basement.

It can be seen that the conversation just now reminded Bernadette of her father.

Odysseus took a deep breath, straightened his clothes in front of the mirror, and then left the basement, which was already 77 Hilton Avenue, and took a rented carriage back to the herbal medicine shop.

Kena had long been accustomed to Odysseus's occasional absences. Everything was going smoothly under his care. As he dusted the shop, he said, "Mr. Simon came by and said there's a match on Sunday night. He'll come back tomorrow afternoon to report what he's learned."

Odysseus nodded: "Yes."

He picked up the newspaper and took a look. When he saw the report about the "thief" who stole all of Kapin's belongings, he smiled slightly. At that time, he had also thought about the problem of the safe.

If he could find the safe and throw it directly into the "wilderness of knowledge", he would become rich.

But the villa was on fire, making it difficult to search for a safe in places like the study. Furthermore, the official Beyonder demigods could arrive at any moment, leaving no time to search for a safe. Finally, Odysseus sighed inwardly: What a pity! All that money went to the Backlund police.

There was nothing else to do today, so Odysseus took a short rest and first used the "teleportation array" to go to the laboratory in the suburbs and put the "Wisdom Helmet" into the "Knowledge Wilderness".

Then he cleaned up the laboratory and the one-hour "cooling-off time" of the "teleportation array" had passed.

Back at the herbalist's shop, Odysseus paced in front of the desk in the lounge, thinking about writing "Outline of Fighting".

After thinking for a while, he finally began to write, starting with a description of the fight and the outline of the entire book.

Here he borrowed some relevant theories of "Chinese Kung Fu", explaining that the essence of fighting is first to strengthen the body, prevent harm to oneself or family members, and to punish the evil deeds of others when help is needed, promote the meaning of kindness, and does not advocate fighting.

After writing thousands of words, Odysseus felt that the magic potion in his body showed signs of loosening.

He smiled slightly: The previous idea was correct. No matter how the "fighting scholar" fights, he must summarize and study it in the end. If he can have his own unique insights into fighting, he will definitely be able to digest the potion.

He then began to explain some basic theories of fighting and describe the points of force.

This outline was only half finished, and Odysseus could already clearly feel the potion being digested.

Just as he was feeling proud, a voice suddenly rang out from behind him: "No one has dared to stand me up for years."

Oops!

Odysseus quickly took out his pocket watch. It was already past one in the afternoon. "Sorry, sorry. I was too engrossed in writing just now."

"Take what you wrote."

Odysseus quickly picked up the half-written draft, and suddenly, an illusory pumpkin-shaped carriage appeared in front of him.

Two fat horses with rat heads were standing right on the test bench, but they did not touch any objects in the real world.

"Get in the car." Bernadette's voice sounded again.

Odysseus opened the car door and saw the pink seats inside and some girlish decorations.

He stepped into the carriage and just closed the door when the scene outside suddenly became colorful, and then became unreal, making it impossible to tell the direction and time.

The carriage is pulling Odysseus through the spiritual world!

About ten seconds later, the scene outside became colorful again, the carriage stopped, and Odysseus saw that he was already in the private room of the "Nanmu Restaurant".

The illusory carriage disappeared, and Odysseus completely returned to the real world.

Bernadette sat on one of the chairs and held out her hand to Odysseus: "Let me see what you were busy with."

Odysseus handed her the manuscript and asked, "Have you ordered?"

"You order the food." Bernadette said as she looked at the manuscript.

Originally, Odysseus wanted to rip off Bernadette, but because he was late, he didn't want to overcharge her, so he ordered two set meals at 1 pounds each and a bottle of wine at 6 pounds, which totaled more than 2 pounds.

After Bernadette finished reading the manuscript, she looked up at Odysseus and asked, "Did you write this?"

"Yes."

"The handwriting is ugly," Bernadette commented. "Besides, you should be able to digest the potion quickly!"
