Chapter 2610 The Skilled Time Traveler
“Wait a moment.”
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 that Shad transformed into is very small, even smaller than little Mia. Therefore, when faced with Winslet, he turned into a cat. The cat looks even smaller.
There was no comparison before. When both of them turned into cats, the “Cat Witch” immediately noticed this and subconsciously stretched out her paws 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 arrived at Old Hank Lane near Lovegood Lane one after another, and then broke into the seemingly uninhabited Old Hank Lane together. No.9.
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 string of footprints finally 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 have an effect:
“Echoes from the past!”
He returned to his adult form and cast the spell again, followed by an extremely confusing sound, but someone 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 return 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, could 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.”
Xia De said while continuing to look at the room:
“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. What I just heard The groaning sound may be the deepening of the curse caused by such violation of time travel.
But did the baron actually notice this pattern? ”
“We can ask again after we find him. The question now is, how do we find him? When did he go?”
Shad 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 tell how long it was connected during the unstable period in the past.
The investigation seemed to have interrupted the clues, but after the owl flew back to the Accordion Hotel with the silver cat in hand, Baron Cumming actually appeared again.
Shadow was having lunch with the two ladies at that time, and Miss Denister was very happy that they could come 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 be completely unnecessary. Relying on the tree hole, which does not 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 the Morris mansion, so it’s only natural that his return location would be next to “Opening the Forest Door: 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? When Daniste and I were trapped in the winter of 1763, we waited for a full It took many months for the cabinet to be sent back to us.”
“Opening the Forest Door: Our Animal Companions” has been passed down in the Cumming family for at least three generations for half a century, starting with Erica Cumming and ending with James Cumming today. What’s the result of the research?”
??????55.??????
Xia De guessed:
“Anyway, we have found the person, and we have plenty of ways to find out the truth.”
Then he asked Miss Xiang Bell:
“What did the Baron do after he came back?”
“He went out alone again, and the girls had 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 rode a carriage to the north of the city, and then left the city alone with a shovel. Our people watched him dig out a box in the woodland outside the city, and then he returned to the city again with the box. It should now be Just returned to Morris House.”
“It can’t be something that was worthless in that era but is very valuable now, right? He has the status of a baron, why does he need to make money like this?”
Xia De sighed and put down the teacup in his hand:
“We must see him this time. Why did he steal his wife, give the book to his son, and do this again now?”
“Then let’s go.”
Miss Winslet turned into an owl again and jumped on Shade’s shoulder:
“Charlotte, you have had a hard day too. Shade and I will just go and do this. You can sit down and have afternoon tea with Professor Danister.”
“Okay, miss.”
So the young black-haired girl and the even younger red-haired girl watched the owl grab the cat and fly out of the window. This scene was like a predatory bird of prey snatching away the weak pet, leaving the cat Looks very pitiful.
Miss Danister held the tea cup and looked at the somewhat reserved Charlotte Bell:
“Speaking of which, has your teacher ever had such a strong interest in anyone before?”
She asked. The witch apprentice didn’t know how to answer for a moment, but it was obviously rude not to answer:
“No Mr. Hamilton is like anyone else.”
“Flora and I have known and lived together for just over a month. You must know her better than I do. Tell me, what do you think Flora’s attitude towards Shade is now?”
Although her tone was very relaxed, the brunette, who is naturally good at sensing people’s emotions, still realized the danger in this question.
She hesitantly reached for the biscuits on the table and thought of a perfect answer:
“Probably similar to my attitude towards Rhodes cards.”
The red-haired girl tilted her head and looked at her:
“What do you mean?”
“If I encounter a precious special rule card, without violating my own moral bottom line, I can get that card in my hand and play with it carefully, which will make me happy for a long time.”
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 man and acting 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 hair color of the animals you turned into was the same as your hair color.”
“A black rat is really ugly. My aesthetics makes me resist looking like that.”
The witch said this, and then urged Shade to quickly carry out the task.
Baroness Cumming and James Cumming are neither at home now, but Baron Cumming is alone in the study on the third floor of the mansion.
The curtains were closed tightly and the door was locked. The ugly-looking middle-aged man casually placed the box he brought back from outside the city on the table, then sat behind the desk and covered his face without speaking for a long time.
For this reason, when a hand suddenly pressed on his shoulder from behind, he was so frightened that he almost jumped.
The more reason why he didn’t jump up was actually that Shade, who entered the room using “Raglai’s Jump”, forced him down on the chair.
“Who is it?”
After the initial panic, Baron Cumming could still pretend to be calm and asked:
“The transaction place does not seem to be my home. But I have brought the box you asked me to bring. I have completed this task across fifty years. You should let me go.”
Shad behind him raised his eyebrows and failed to give an immediate answer, while the Baron, who was sitting with his back to him, also reacted in the silence:
“Are you not that person?”
“Who asked you to do what?”
This time Shade really asked, but he didn’t expect that the Baron’s body suddenly shook after a moment of silence, and then his whole body began to become transparent.
“What?”
Xia De never thought that an ordinary person could escape from his hands. When he turned around to see who the baron was behind him, what surprised him most was not that he didn’t recognize the person behind him, but that he was behind him. The man’s right hand actually became transparent along with his body.
Shadow is following him.
[Outlander, you are heading to the sixth era of the present world, 1802. If you go back to the past in this way, time will be cursed]
