Chapter 229 Who changed my script
evening.
Jack Manor.
In the fourth-floor attic, Maggie put down a bottle of tan potion in her hand and leaned down to observe carefully.
The strange viscous liquid contained in the bottle was bubbling and even trembling slightly.
"Well...the thirst-strengthening potion enhancement experiment has some results, but now we can't find a suitable tester for a while. The group of undead strangers have gone to nowhere in the past few days..."
< br>
Maggie looked troubled.
She suddenly had an idea, and the expression on her face turned into one of anticipation.
"Go find Noah! As the only flesh-and-blood faction transcendent in the circus, he is the most suitable!"
Maggie hammered her palms and did as she said. She immediately turned around and went out without even clearing up the messy tabletop.
She went straight to the third floor, found Noah's room, and banged the door hard.
Dong Dong Dong...!
After a while, no one responded.
Maggie continued banging, then pacing from side to side.
"Not there?"
She tried to twist the door handle, found that the door was unlocked, and opened the door directly.
"Hey...it seems like he really went out."
Maggie glanced around the room and found it empty.
She was a little disappointed, and when she was about to close the door and leave, her eyes were attracted by the paintings in the corner of the room.
They were all covered with white cloth, and you couldn't see what was painted at all. This strongly aroused Maggie's curiosity.
She looked around and found that there was no one in the aisle on the third floor, so she sneaked in sneakily.
He quietly locked the door, went straight to the picture frame in the corner, and then suddenly opened the white cloth on a picture.
Wow——
Maggie's face suddenly showed a stunned expression.
The next second, her cheeks turned red and her eyes showed excitement.
"This...?!"
Maggie took a step forward, bent down, and kept moving her hands to lift off all the other white cloths.
When she stood up straight and glanced over, her whole face turned red.
"Oh my God! So exciting..."
Maggie was suddenly startled, and found that her nose was a little warm, and when she touched it with her hand, it actually bled.
"Huh?"

The next day.
Early in the morning, Connie and Maggie were sitting in the living room looking at a painting.
The little white cat Bib also joined in the fun, sticking his little head out from between the two of them, admiring the painting together.
In the oil painting, it is Mr. Jack, but he is not wearing the black hat or clothes. He has white wings on his back, his arms are spread out in the shape of a cross, and he is floating in the sky.
Fortunately, there was a piece of white silk cloth surrounding his torso, just covering the key parts.
In the painting, Jack gently raised his head, his eyes were closed, and his exposed muscles were clear. He looked like the most perfect sculpture, shining in the sun.
"Hey...how are you, Connie?"
Maggie elbowed Connie next to her, who was blushing and her mouth was slightly open.
"This...is this Mr. Jack? Good...good..."
She stammered, wanting to say something about her perfect body, but she felt she wasn't ladylike enough.
Maggie raised her eyebrows. This painting was actually the only one in Noah's room that was not naked. If Connie saw the other paintings, she might be frightened.
The little white cat Bib blinked, showing a strange expression.
"I said Connie, why are you so shy? We call this admiration... By the way, have you never been in love?"
Maggie said with a chuckle.
"No... Miss Maggie, what about you? You know so much, you must be very experienced, right?"
Connie asked curiously.
Maggie coughed and wanted to say something, but suddenly shut up.
At this moment, a figure silently came to the two of them. His white hands pressed down on the painting, then turned it over and held it in his arms.
Maggie and Connie looked up and were startled.
"Miss Floy!"
Floy's face was expressionless, and after "staring" at the two of them for a while, she spoke softly:
"Don't do this in the future. It will affect Mr. Jack's prestige. Do you understand?"
"I'm sorry, Miss Floy, I won't peek again!"
Connie immediately apologized nervously. Although Floy was usually gentle to her, this time he was unusually cold and looked a little angry, which made her a little scared.
"Um..."
When Maggie saw Floy turning his head to "look" at her, her heart skipped a beat and she said a little guiltily:
"Haha, I got it, I got it, Mr. Leader's paintings were all found in Noah's room, and there are many without clothes..."
Floy turned around and left holding the painting.
Maggie secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She didn't know why, but Floy could put a lot of pressure on her, even more exaggerated than the leader.
"Miss Maggie, if you say so...Miss Floy will definitely go to trouble Mr. Noah..."
Connie said worriedly.
Maggie slumped back, leaned on the sofa and waved her hands, saying indifferently:
"It's okay, it's okay, why are you causing trouble... She will definitely hide the painting secretly, hehe."

Afternoon is approaching evening.
Mrs. Caroline comes to visit.
She was holding a small potted plant with several bunches of flowers of various colors on it. At her feet, there was also a black and white border collie, it was Babu.
"Mrs. Caroline, welcome."
After Chen Lun heard Connie's announcement, he personally took Floy to the door to greet him.
He took off his hat, bent slightly and hugged Mrs. Caroline, who kissed him twice on the cheek very affectionately.
Floy took the potted plant and said hello to Mrs. Caroline.
"I'm so lonely in the apartment alone, so I came to visit. I won't disturb you, little Jack?"
said Mrs. Caroline with a kind look on her face.
"How could it be? Mrs. Caroline can come to the manor at any time to play. When we first came to Amber City, we received a lot of care from you."
Chen Lun touched Babu's dog head and said softly.
Babu hadn't seen Chen Lun for a long time, and he seemed very excited and kept licking his palm.
"You are still such a gentleman, little Jack."
Mrs. Caroline smiled and followed Chen Lun into the manor.
While walking, Mrs. Caroline looked around at the huge and beautiful environment and praised:
"It's great to plant so many flowers."
"Floy took care of it all personally. Maybe I was influenced by you when I was at No. 7 Denton Street..."
Chen Lun said jokingly.
Soon, they led Mrs. Caroline to the living room of the villa to sit down.
Floy went to work in the kitchen and said that she would make a special afternoon tea for Mrs. Caroline.
Chen Lun looked at her back and chuckled.
"Mrs. Caroline, are you getting used to living in the inner city these days?"
He poured two cups of tea and asked casually.
"Alas..."
Mrs. Caroline took a sip from her teacup.
"Although the inner city is far more prosperous than the outer city, the people here are not as easy to get along with as there... Fortunately, I still have Bab with me, and the Pompeii family will occasionally come to visit me."
Chen Lun nodded and listened silently.
"Mr. Taut has not woken up since he was injured last time. I am very worried."
Mrs. Caroline's face showed concern.
"Don't worry, Mrs. Caroline. Doctor Maggie diagnosed him last time. He was just in a deep lethargy. I believe he will wake up soon."
Chen Lun comforted.
Mrs. Caroline forced a smile.
The two chatted for a while, and then Floy came over with a plate.
"Mrs. Caroline, this is a rose wine cake that I developed based on your cooking manual and some of my own experiments."
There were two plates of red cakes carved with cream on the plate, which were very exquisite. They were also paired with two cups of specially blended milk tea.
"Oh, it's so beautiful! Little Floy, your craftsmanship is beyond my expectation!"
Mrs. Caroline praised.
She picked up the dinner plate, scooped out a corner with a spoon, and put it in her mouth. The wrinkles at the corners of her eyes widened.
“Tastes great!”
She sighed.
Chen Lun looked at the plate of cakes in front of him, then turned to look at Floy, who smiled at him.
"You should eat some too."
he said.
Floy shook his head slightly.
Chen Lun stopped talking, but took a spoonful and handed it to Floy's mouth.
Floy was stunned for a moment, then her cheeks turned red and she opened her mouth.
After she finished the bite, Chen Lun started to taste it.
Mrs. Caroline nodded when she saw this scene, and the smile on her face became even bigger.
"The relationship between you brothers and sisters is still so good."
"Of course."
Chen Lun did not explain, but chuckled and echoed.
On the other hand, Floy next to her had a deeper blush on her face.
Beside the sofa.
The border shepherd Babu seemed to notice something. He suddenly changed from lying down to squatting, his nose twitched and he smelled the smell.
It turned around and saw a little white cat walking slowly over.
Babu seemed to have found something interesting. He rushed to the little white cat with great interest, grinned at the cat in a frightening manner, and let out a low growl.
But the little white cat glanced at it, jumped up on the spot, kicked it on the head, and flew to the armrest of the sofa.
The border shepherd Babu was stunned for a moment, and then he wanted to bite the little white cat on the butt unconvinced. Unexpectedly, the white cat seemed to have the ability to predict things. hand.
Hit the dog's head hard for a dozen times, instantly knocking it out of sight.
Chen Lun glanced at it, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes. Babu was a dog that he fed a mysterious substance, how could he be bullied by a little white cat.
At this time, the little white cat jumped into his arms and meowed at the cake in his hand.
Chen Lun's eyes were deep, then he smiled and placed the cake in front of it.
The little white cat Bib sniffed it and began to lick it, purring with pleasure.

Yanbang Fossil City.
Asylum building.
In the office of Chief Adjudicator Rudolf Teka.
The blond middle-aged man was sitting on a chair, flipping through a large book.
The dark blue handwriting on the page is elegant, and the lines are filled with words.
He turned the page.
Wow——
"——After Brother Jerome of the Red Apple Church was ordered to do something in danger, he felt that the archbishop valued him and decided to complete the mission to the death... He came to the Gemstone Kingdom with the church's [B-level trick - Plague in a Bottle], Disease factor released
The plague spread very quickly, far beyond Jerome's expectation. He completed this task perfectly and restrained the empire's energy in the Gem State, freeing up his hands to carry out the secret operation assigned to him by the Archbishop - to capture the Black Knight Bayer. Si's soul.
But Jerome overlooked one thing. The power of [Plague in a Bottle] was simply not enough to cause a disaster that swept the entire city. The reason why the disease spread quickly was because... (crossed out), it was because of a secret The cult organization's 'disaster memorial service'.
Their establishment originated from an accident. An ignorant but sad person picked up a mythical book, which recorded the deeds and honorary name of the evil god "Lord of Disease", so they prayed to God for no disasters and no disease...
But this cult, which was outside the incident, after completing their mission, was quickly caught by the shelter, uprooted, and completely destroyed...
The source of the clues came from what Jack saw in a hospital outside Amber City..."
Tuk tuk tuk...
At this time there was a knock on the door.
Howard didn't even raise his head and said softly:
"Please come in."
The door opened immediately.
A heroic short-haired woman walked in, it was Meng Na.
"Teacher."
She touched her chest, saluted, and called out respectfully.
"Please take a seat, Mona."
Howard gave a gentle smile.
"Yes, teacher."
Meng Na sat down at the desk and handed over what she was holding.
"This is a mysterious book "The Secret Record of Bitterness" that we confiscated after we secretly eradicated the cult organization 'Memorial Meeting'. It records the existence of an evil god named 'Lord of Disease'... Please let the teacher decide how to deal with it. .”
"Well, thank you for your hard work, Mona."
After Howard took the old book, he put it aside.
"Are you confused as to why you were called back suddenly and urgently?"
He did not answer Meng Na's words, but changed the topic and asked.
Meng Na was stunned for a moment, and then a trace of confusion appeared on her face, but in the end she took a deep breath and looked directly into the eyes of the blond man.
"Yes, teacher! Now Amber City is facing a tense situation. A team of executioners was first intercepted by Byers, and the team of executioners who arrived later were ready to start a roundup... If I don't take charge, I'm afraid there will be trouble."< br>
"The 'Lamp Keeper' team from the Church of the Sun and the 'Purple Moonlight' team from the Moon Church will arrive in Amber City soon. Join them and the three elite teams of extraordinary beings will take care of everything. You can stay here with peace of mind. < br>
And don’t underestimate Ralph, he is also my student, you must trust him. ”
Howard smiled softly.
"You have gone out to train for so long, and it's time for you to come back... The empire needs you to do more things, instead of just staying in an ordinary city and wasting your time."
"But...teacher!"
Mona was a little anxious.
"You go down first and get familiar with the affairs here. Maybe you won't go back to Amber City in the future..."
Howard waved his hand gently.
Meng Na stood up and wanted to say something to fight for it, but suddenly she saw the teacher's blue eyes, plain and deep.
Her heart skipped a beat.
Although the teacher had always taken good care of her and had a gentle attitude, for some reason, Meng Na was still in awe of her subconsciously.
"Yes, I understand, teacher."
Meng Na sighed secretly, turned and left in a depressed mood.
Click!
The door is closed.
Howard picked up the "Secret Book of Misery and Weakness", stood up and walked to the bookshelf nearby, inserted it in, and murmured:
"Well, we're back again."
He closed the cabinet door, returned to the desk, sat down, and continued reading the script.
But Howard was slightly startled.
He saw——
On the page of the script, all the names "Jerome" began to blur out among the words written there.
As if going back in time, dark blue ink seeped out, flowed, and then destroyed the entire page.
Howard gently closed the script and read "A Plague Tale" on the cover.
He lit a cigarette, walked slowly to the window and looked out. On his expressionless face, those eyes were frighteningly calm.
"Huh..."
A puff of smoke was exhaled.
A deep voice echoed in the room:
"Who changed my script? Was it you? Maggie..."
