Chapter 2611: Skilled Time Traveler

Chapter 2610 Skilled Time Traveler

"Hold on."

The debris in the alley was enough to obscure the view from the alley entrance. Shade jumped up and turned into a silver cat and jumped onto the wall.

Somehow, even though Shad's height is above the average for his age, the cat Shad transformed into is very small, even smaller than little Mia. Therefore, when faced with the cat Winslet turned into, It becomes even smaller when the time comes.

There was no comparison before, but when both of them turned into cats, the "Cat Witch" immediately noticed this and subconsciously stretched out her paw to pat Shade's head, but was blocked by Shade.

The gray-black cat was not embarrassed. It turned around on the wall with its tail swung gracefully, and then jumped off the wall with the silver cat.

The traces of Sir Cumming she captured did not go far. The two cats came to Old Hank Lane adjacent to Lovegood Lane one after another, and then broke into the seemingly uninhabited No. 9 Old Hank Lane together.

This is also an old two-story building. The door is locked from the inside, and there is almost no furniture inside. The floors and walls were all moldy, and it was obvious that they had not been used for many years, but there were clearly clear footprints on the dust on the ground.

The series of footprints eventually led the two cats to the small bedroom on the second floor, and then the footprints suddenly disappeared at the door of the room. No one has come to this house for a long time, so no one will talk. This time it is finally Shade's turn to use his magic:

"Echoes from the past!"

He returned to his human form and cast the spell again, followed by an extremely chaotic sound, but he could barely hear someone moaning in pain, and the sound was very much like Baron Cumming:

"There is interference here, and the thaumaturgy [Echoes of the Past] does not work well where the power of time has acted."

"The power of time? Is there a tree hole here too?"

The gray-black cat did not change back to its human form, but jumped on Shade's shoulder again, and then watched as Shade took out the canvas for testing. But the few wooden objects in the empty room, namely the rotten floor and door, can be turned into toys.

"This is strange. The footprints stop immediately when they reach the door. Could it be that Baron Cumming is not an ordinary person?"

The cat wondered, then poked Shade's neck with its furry tail:

"Tell me, can it be?"

"The first rule of time travel: If time travelers appear in a place where they have stayed for a long time in the past, they will spontaneously be attracted to that time again."

Shade continued to look at the room and said:

"The book passed down by the Cumming family is still in the hands of James Cumming, so if the Baron wants to travel through, unless he finds another tree hole, he will most likely use this method. The groan I heard just now, It is possible that the curse caused by such violation of time travel is deepening.

But did the baron actually notice this pattern? "

"Once we find him, we can ask again. The question now is, how do we find him? When did he go?"

Shade really has no way to answer this question. If Baron Cumming had only been to 1809 when his wife was stolen when she was one year old, then he would most likely be in 1809 now. But if the Baron had been there for more time, then things were uncertain.

Although the current book "Opening the Forest Door: Our Animal Companions" is only connected to 1802, no one can say how long it was connected during the unstable period in the past.

The investigation seemed to have interrupted the clues, but when the owl flew back to the Accordion Hotel with the silver cat in hand, Baron Cumming actually appeared again.

Shade was having lunch with the two ladies at that time, and Miss Denister was pleased that they were able to get back so quickly. Just as Miss Winslet was spreading "Carsonrick spice knowledge" to the other two people, Miss Bell knocked on the door and came in:

"Miss, the team responsible for monitoring the Morris Mansion sent back information that Baron Cumming appeared in his home, but the girls did not notice when he entered the house."

The two ladies at the table looked at Shade again, and Shade immediately understood:

"Resonance is two-way. If he was attracted to the past in 1854, then he can also be attracted to the present in the past. No, no, this attraction is probably one-way. Otherwise, his time travel would not need to rely on tree holes at all. Yes, this doesn’t conform to the rules of time travel. He found the book "Opening the Forest Door: Our Animal Companions" in the past? "

“That book is now at Morris House, so it’s only natural that his return location would be next to Opening the Forest: Our Animal Companions.”

The red-haired sorceress nodded, and the witch asked:

"But in this case, has he mastered the method of opening a fixed time channel at a fixed point without using a time key? Daniste and I were trapped in the winter of 1763, but after waiting for more than a month, we still couldn't They didn’t wait until the cabinet came before sending us back.”

""Opening the Forest Door: Our Animal Companions" has been passed down to the Cumming family for at least three generations for a total of half a century, starting with Erica Cumming and ending with James Cumming today. They may have really researched it. What."

??????55.??????

Shade guessed:

"Anyway, we have found the person, and we have plenty of ways to find out the truth."

Then he asked Miss Bell:

"What did the Baron do after he came back?"

"He went out alone again, and the girls have followed him."

It was already two o'clock in the afternoon when the news came again, and it was still Miss Bell who brought them the news:

"Baron Cumming took a carriage to the north of the city, and then left the city alone with a shovel. Our people saw him dig out a box in the woods outside the city, and then he took the box back to the city again, and he should have just returned to Morris Mansion now."

"Could it be something that was worthless in that era but is very valuable now? He has the status of a baron, so why does he need to make money like this?"

Shad sighed and put down the teacup in his hand:

"This time it must be I want to see him. Why did he steal his wife, give the book to his son, and now do this kind of thing? "

"Let's go."

Miss Winslet turned into an owl again and jumped on Shad's shoulder:

"Charlotte, you have worked hard all day. Shad and I will do this. You sit down and have afternoon tea with Professor Danister."

"Okay, Miss."

So the young black-haired girl and the younger red-haired girl watched the owl catch the cat and fly out of the window. This scene was like a predatory bird of prey taking away a weak pet, making the cat look very pitiful.

Miss Danister held the teacup and looked at Charlotte Bell, who was a little reserved:

"Speaking of which, has your teacher ever had such a strong interest in anyone before?"

She asked, and the witch apprentice didn't know how to answer for a moment, but it would be impolite not to answer:

"No, Mr. Hamilton is different from others."

"Flora and I have only known and lived together for more than a month, and you must know her better than me. Tell me, what do you think Flora's attitude towards Shade is now?"

Although her tone was relaxed, the black-haired girl, who was naturally good at sensing people's emotions, still felt the danger in this question.

She hesitantly reached out to take the biscuits on the table, and thought of a perfect answer:

"It's probably similar to my attitude towards the Rhodes card."

The red-haired girl tilted her head and looked at her:

"What do you mean?"

"If I encounter a precious special rule card, I will be happy for a while if I get the card in my hand and play with it carefully without violating my moral bottom line."

Riding the "Round-faced Owl Flying Vehicle", Shade soon appeared in the remote and quiet Morris Mansion. Miss Winslet still had no idea of ​​turning into a human to act with Shade. This time she didn't even turn into a cat, but turned into a white mouse and got into Shade's pocket.

"I thought the color of your hair when you turned into an animal was the same as your hair color."

"Black mice are really ugly, and my aesthetics make me resist turning into that."

The witch said this, and then urged Shade to carry out the task quickly.

Baroness Cumming and James Cumming are not at home now, and Baron Cumming is alone in the study on the third floor of the mansion.

The curtains were closed, the door was locked, and the middle-aged man with a very ugly face put the box he brought back from outside the city on the table, then sat behind the desk, covering his face for a long time without saying anything.

Therefore, when a hand suddenly pressed on his shoulder from behind him, he was so scared that he almost jumped up.

The more reason why he didn't jump up was that Shade, who entered the room with "Raglai's Leap", pressed him down on the chair.

"Excuse me, who is it?"

After the initial panic, Baron Cumming was still able to pretend to be calm and asked:

"The transaction location does not seem to be my home. But I have brought the box you asked me to bring. I have completed this task after fifty years. You should let me go."

Shade behind him raised his eyebrows and failed to give an immediate answer, and the baron who was sitting with his back to him also reacted in this silence:

"You are not that person?"

"Who asked you to do what?"

Only then did Shade really ask out loud, but he didn't expect that the baron's body suddenly shook after a moment of silence, and then he began to become transparent.

"What?"

Shade had never thought that an ordinary person could escape from his hands, and when he turned around to see who the baron behind him was, he was most surprised not that he did not recognize the person behind him, but that the right hand of the person behind him was also becoming transparent along with his body.

Shade followed him closely.

[Stranger, you are heading to the sixth era of the present world, 1802. If you go back to the past in this way, time curse]
