Chapter 2558: Newspaper that Travels Through Time
"You can't leave a certain area? That's just as I guessed. Although your method of traveling through time is not a time key, it is similar to the time key adventure."
Xia De had the most experience in this area, and he asked again:
"Then Miss Danister, have you tried to leave clues for us in this era? For example, find some people and instruct their descendants to go to a certain place on a certain date; or bury a note or notebook in an inconspicuous place."
Miss Danister had certainly thought of this:
"I had this thought, and I did it. I didn't know how many days after I disappeared you or anyone else would come to this place, so I told the townspeople to come to this hotel to look for me a week after I disappeared."
The corners of her mouth curled up slightly to reveal a smile, and her rose-red eyes looked at Xia De:
"But apparently you came faster than I thought."
"So is there something buried? Although it is now certain that you have indeed traveled to the past, I think we still need to dig out the buried things to prove this thoroughly. After all, there are other possibilities, right?"
"I buried it in the woods to prevent it from being dug out when the town is expanded and renovated. No, Shad, sit down. You don't have to go. I dug it out last night."
She shook the silver and ruby ring on her hand at Xia De:
"This is an alchemical ring I made myself. It cannot be counterfeited. If you are still worried, you can ask the descendants of the townspeople I left messages for. Of course, the premise is that they really abide by my requirements and are still willing to carry out those actions."
Shade shook his head:
"There's nothing to doubt about traveling through time, but this way, there's no clue as to how to lift the time curse."
"This curse has been mentioned in past documents, but I have never seen anyone who defied time, so I have always regarded it as an ancient legend."
The sorceress raised her hand and touched her face:
"Since the problem originated in Ximu Town, I believe the answer will also be here. I am definitely not the only outsider who has just arrived in this town. I suspect that someone here knows the secret of time travel.
At the time point of 1763, the rumor of the "time traveler" in the town might be true. The biggest gain from my more than one month in the past was that I saw a copy of the 1852 "Voice of Music" newspaper in the town at that time. The place of discovery was in the woods outside the town, and it might have been blown there by the wind. "
Xia De looked at her in surprise, but then felt that it was nothing.
Judging from the notebook found in Fat Owl’s room, there were as many as seven suspected “time travelers” in this hotel’s past.
"If there were other time travelers in the past, and the cupboard is now placed so casually in the broom closet instead of in a hidden secret room, it means that there may be more than one time channel in this area."
Xia De analyzed, and Miss Danister nodded slightly, sighed and put down the teacup:
"So, now we can try to find other time travelers. Maybe some people are forever stuck in a time that doesn't belong to them, but I believe there must be people who have returned to their own time point like me.
The time curse will not only curse me. If I find other people cursed by time, I will always find a way to expel the curse."
This is also what Shade thought. If there are really many "twisted tree holes" in this woodland, then this woodland must have special properties that they have not yet discovered.
Whether it's to help Miss Danister or to find a way to bring the witch from the past to the "present", Shade will not ignore this matter.
"After I went back last night, I actually thought about how to remove the curse from you."
After talking about Miss Danister's experience, Shade talked about this matter:
"This curse originates from time, so it will take time to resolve it. For example, the origin of the curse is related to your illegal travel through time. In this case, can the curse be purified through the method of 'atonement'?"
This method was actually thought of by Shade for long-haired Luvia a long time ago.
The eighteen-year-old sorceress asked:
"But I went to the past illegally, and now I'm back. Do you want me to go back a hundred years again?"
"No, no, it's about catching other people who have destroyed the time continuity but have not been punished. In other words, catch other illegal time travelers. Unfortunately, it's not easy to find them. The only one I know of is Envy Edwards, the eldest son of the third generation of the Edwards family, but he has left."
Miss Danister nodded in understanding:
"This method may indeed be useful, but we still need to search in Vista City. Behind this city, I mean behind the long time, there must be secrets that we cannot imagine. Do you want to see that 1852 Creekwood Morning Post? There is only half of it, but fortunately it is a half that has time."
Shade shook his head:
"Let's wait and see. I have a second idea for the solution to the time curse."
He then pulled a glass jar pendant from his pocket and wiped it with his handkerchief, and it turned into a real jar filled with yellow-brown preservative.
The two umbilical cords, entangled with each other, floated in the preservative. Shade handed the jar to Miss Danister:
"Try it, this thing can stabilize time."
The latter took the jar with a little surprise, and immediately felt the ancient miracle element:
"This is... Oh!"
She turned her head and looked at the life ring that appeared automatically behind her with Shade and the round-faced owl. The original thirteen-ring life ring had indeed become seven rings, and as she hugged the umbilical cord, the seven-ring life ring began to transform in the depths of the steam mist while spinning rapidly until it became twelve rings.
Xia De immediately looked at her face again, only to find that the sorceress in front of him was still as young and beautiful as an eighteen-year-old:
"It looks like it's feasible, but it's a pity that it didn't recover to the thirteenth ring, and your appearance still hasn't changed."
Miss Danister nodded, not at all disappointed:
"The curse has not disappeared, but has been partially offset by the thing you took out. This is enough, which shows that this curse is not completely unbreakable."
She returned the jar to Shade, and as her face suddenly turned pale, the twelve-ring life ring turned back to seven rings. Not only that, she then covered her mouth and coughed twice, and then Shade saw the blood in her palm:
"It seems that I can't do this often. The curse seems to have become more severe. As expected, taking shortcuts won't work."
"Oh, don't talk yet - sunlight therapy!"
The golden sunlight sprinkled down from the raised fist, and the weak sorceress asked doubtfully:
"Where did you learn the magic of the Church of the Sun?"
Fortunately, she only suffered internal injuries due to the fluctuations of the curse power. After resting for a while, she was able to continue chatting with Xia De:
"Shad, can you tell me who these two umbilical cords belong to?"
If the fat owl wasn't here right now, Shade wouldn't mind explaining it briefly. But he didn't trust the new witch yet, and didn't want to disturb the two princes' ordinary lives starting from scratch, so he just shook his head.
Miss Danister didn't ask any further questions. She stood up and wanted to get the newspaper she brought back from the past, but Shad asked her to sit on the sofa and rest, so he stood up to help her get it.
The crumpled half of the newspaper was the front page, and the headline on the front page today was the news that King Lion Ryan reorganized the Parliament of the Kingdom of Carsenrick and reappointed the Speaker. Because the newspaper was only half a copy, the news and the photo of His Majesty the King were only on the top half.
It is worth mentioning that the Marquis Hussein, who took office as Speaker in 1852, still serves as Speaker of the United Kingdom. Moreover, he is Margaret's uncle, the Queen's younger brother.
Then Shade continued to talk to Miss Danister about what she had seen a hundred years ago. The winter of 1763 sounded particularly cold. Those who were eager to go home were waiting for their students to arrive in the almost deserted mansion, and for the townspeople who knew nothing, it was just another ordinary winter.
Although Shade did not ask about the owl right away, as the conversation continued, he inevitably asked about the owl's origins:
"Well, I'm still curious about it. Is it your pet?"
"You know what? I've been waiting for you to ask questions since you walked in. Shade, you're more patient than I thought. This is a compliment, you don't have to explain."
The young red-haired sorceress said, motioning for Shade to look at the owl.
The owl on the bird stand also flapped its wings and flew towards the sofa, but it was shrouded in a gray mist in mid-air. As the gray mist spread, a figure wearing black leather shoes walked out of the mist.
The long gray hair was mixed with black hair, and the ends of the hair even reached past the waist. No other lady around the outsider had hair as long as this.
With her left hand on her chin, her face was indeed very small, making her look no more than twenty years old.
But her clothes were simple and exquisite. The upper body was a white lace blouse with cuffs that were as eye-catching as her slender waist. The black long skirt was neat and fitted, making her figure look even slimmer. She was not as tall as Miss Carina and Miss Aurora, but she was at least 1.7 meters tall.
The warm autumn sun shone through the window, casting a soft shadow on her face, and the autumn morning breeze blowing in from the window made her long hair sway slightly. Her golden eyes looked at Shade with an elusive smile, which at least showed that her attitude was not hostile.
A little bit arrogant, but like a lazy cat basking in the sun, this was Shad's first impression of Flora Winslet.
"Hello, who are you?"
Shade asked suspiciously.
