Chapter 971: Back to school

The day after Harry Kaufman's escape from prison, the first day of June, Joan received a regrettable message.
Affected by the recent case, the wedding of Mr. Kaufman and Mrs. Josephine was forced to be postponed. The exact wedding time cannot be determined yet.
Joan and his mentor came to Baden Hot Springs in the name of attending the wedding. Now that their wedding has been postponed, their respective research work has been completed, and there is no reason to continue to stay.
The day after receiving the wedding extension notice, on the morning of June 2nd, Joan ended his two-week vacation trip, and as he arrived, took the "Phantom Carriage" summoned by his instructor to return to Midgard City.
On the way back to the city, Qiao An was holding his spell book and studying intently. It was not until the carriage entered the outskirts of the city that he was awakened by the sudden sound of horseshoes behind him.
Looking back, he couldn't help but stunned.
A horse immediately followed the "Phantom Carriage", so it hung so close, the knight on the horse was wearing a large black cloak, the hood was pressed very low, the shadow covered the face, it seemed to be Observe the four phantom foals in the towing carriage.
"Phantom Horse" is like smoke and fog, with only a blurry horse-shaped silhouette, it is indeed easy to arouse curiosity from passersby, and along the way, "turning rate" is so high that Joan has become accustomed to it.
However, the black-robed knight who followed the horse body looked even weirder than Phantom Horse!
In this hot summer afternoon, normal people are unlikely to use a thick cloak to wrap themselves tightly from head to toe.
Joan had to suspect that this man in black robe was deliberately hiding his identity, rather risking heat stroke, rather than being seen by passers-by.
However, after all, his dress that violates the seasonal seasons... is more striking. Is it really counterproductive if he really hides his identity?
Could it be said that the purpose of this person is not to hide his identity, but to simply fear the sun?
Joan couldn't help but start...
Just when he was full of doubts, the man in black robe suddenly shook his reins and drove the horse up, keeping the momentum with the "Phantom Carriage", and waved at Professor Moriarty in the carriage.
Professor Moriarty also noticed the strange man's behavior, turned his head to look at the man, raised his brim, and nodded slightly to return the gift.
When the two sides met, they did not say hello, but just communicated with each other.
Just a few seconds later, the man in black robe urged the horse to gallop, and in a blink of an eye, he left the "Phantom Carriage" behind him, and his back quickly disappeared at the end of the dusty avenue.
"Tutor, do you recognize that person just now?" Joan couldn't help asking.
"I can't see my face clearly, but my figure is a little familiar, and I can't remember who for a while." Professor Moriarty yawned lazily, and seemed not to care much about the inexplicable encounter in the Dao just now, "Since the other party Wrapped so tightly, I wouldn’t want to show my face, so I didn’t bother to guess his identity."
Is this really the case?
Joan was a little suspicious of the tutor's indifferent attitude.
If you meet such a weird person who greets you actively on the journey, even if you don’t recognize who the other person was at the time, I am afraid that you will have to search afterwards. You have to understand the identity and intention of this person to be at ease.
Suddenly the black robe came and went suddenly, leaving Joan full of question marks, unable to calm down to read the book, simply enjoy the roadside scenery, and relax his tired brain.
As we approached the gate of the city, passing through a forest, Professor Moriarty whistled suddenly, and the four "Phantom Horses" slowed down, and the carriage slowed down, and finally stopped on the side of the road.
"Joan, when I think about it, an old friend of mine lived on the outskirts of the city, and I just went down to visit. You don't have to wait for me to enter the city yourself."
Professor Moriarty said a few words, then he jumped off the carriage, carried his cane, and walked straight into the shade of the roadside.
The professor's steps seemed laid-back, but extremely brisk, and the slender figure gradually blurred in the dense forest.
Qiao An looked at the instructor's back, frowned, and his doubts continued to grow.
If the instructor really intends to visit friends temporarily, then according to his usual style, he should bring Joan with him as a guest. Why not send his students away without asking?
Judging from the unconventional behavior of the tutor, Joan suspected that he was intentionally avoiding himself, and then he reminisced about the black-robed knight who met recently. The friend the tutor was going to visit, could it be this person?
If this is the case, the so-called "stop by the way" is probably just a pretext. When the black-robed knight greeted Professor Moriarty before, the two parties may have reached a tacit agreement and agreed to meet alone in the suburban forest to discuss certain Untold confidential topic.
Of course, all these speculations were based on unfounded illusions. Joan himself felt bored, and shook his head to dispel misunderstandings. He was about to recite the mantra taught by the instructor, and ordered "Phantom Horse" to move on. The seat next to him suddenly shuddered slightly, and it seemed that something was suddenly pressed down, but it was invisible.
Suddenly, the sudden movements beside him made Joe An stunned, his muscles tightened, and he entered the alert state subconsciously.
