"What color are my underwear today?"

Officer, there's a pervert!

Elisa listened to the audio twice in disbelief, even rubbing her ears in between.

Is this even a question a human being should ask?! The most outrageous harassment I've ever seen in the archipelago is nothing compared to yours!

Are you flirting with your beloved teacher?

No, Elisa tapped her head. The servant didn't know I was on the other side of the mirror. If we're talking about flirting, he was flirting with the mirror.

Miss Golden Retriever quickly opened "Simon's Log" and said, "Let me see what's going on!"

Simon posed an extremely private question to the Magic Mirror, testing the knowledge boundaries of the Magic Mirror's question-and-answer system.

Another test!

Miss Elisa was deflated. There was no way to proceed with the test. Although the servant's question was a bit strange, it wasn't inappropriate as a test; supernatural items wouldn't care about that.

Thinking about it carefully, this test is necessary. If it were me, I would also give a little test, but I would never ask such a weird question!

Simon waited a long time, but the Magic Mirror didn't reply. It seems the other party either doesn't know or can't answer this question.

Simon then asked a second question: 'What kind of man does Miss Susanna like?'

"...?"

Who is Susanna... Oh right, she's the busty college student at the picnic, the one who led to the East Side murder case.

You bastard, what's your purpose in asking this kind of question?

What do you want to do to the innocent Miss Susanna!

"The magic mirror still didn't respond, so Simon asked some more trivial questions about daily life, but the magic mirror still didn't answer."

Simon deduced that the Magic Mirror would only answer questions about general knowledge, not specific information about reality.

What he couldn't be sure of was whether the Magic Mirror was unwilling to answer questions about real-world information, or whether it simply had no answer.

I don't want to answer, and I have no answer!

Ask me some serious questions!

Chapter 49 Let's increase our intimacy!

"The test is over," Simon asked, "is there any way to speed up my training, increase my strength, and that I can use?"

Finally, a normal question appeared! Elisa was so moved she almost cried.

The long string of trivial intelligence questions I had before were polluting my eyes and brain, but I couldn't avoid them either; it was incredibly torturous!

She raised her hand and wrote the price on the mirror.

15 pounds.

Gold coins quickly fell from the mirror; the male servant's recharge was very convenient.

After counting the gold coins, Elisa happily put them away and wrote a "meditation" ritual on the mirror.

The cultivation of extraordinary individuals relies primarily on "meditation." Meditation strengthens the connection between oneself and the technique, allowing one to draw upon more of the technique's power. Therefore, to accelerate cultivation, one must enhance the effects of meditation. Generally, there are two methods: "potions" and "rituals."

The ingredients for the potion are hard to find and the preparation is also troublesome, while the ingredients for the ritual are easier to collect, making it perfect for male servants.

Simon noted down the ritual on the mirror and decided to try it again tomorrow. It was almost dawn, and he needed to rest for a while.

"Before ending the Magic Mirror Q&A session, a sudden inspiration flashed through his mind."

Simon wanted to use a logic puzzle to test whether the magic mirror was a curly-haired baboon.

What, another test?

Elisa took a closer look and realized it was just a logic puzzle, so she relaxed.

I'm from the archipelago, and I did go to university, even if I only audited some courses. Logical questions are a piece of cake for me!

Elisa opened the bedside table, took out paper and pen, and prepared to do calculations.

Simon asked: "Suppose that in a village, everyone's eyes are either red or blue."

"This village is cursed. Once a villager realizes that he or she has blue eyes, he or she will die at midnight that same day. So the villagers don't talk about their eye colors, nor do they look at the color of their own eyes."

One day, a villain came to the village and said in front of everyone: "I saw at least one person with blue eyes."

"There are actually four blue-eyed people in the village. On which day will they die?"

Simon awaits the Magic Mirror's reaction.

The magic mirror didn't react, and Miss Elisa stared blankly at the pages. The problem wasn't complicated; I understood everything in it, but putting it all together, why was my mind completely blank?

What kind of logic puzzle is this?! Isn't a normal logic puzzle like the one about wolves, sheep, and vegetables crossing a river? How did it get involved with eye color and curses? They didn't even tell me how many people are in the village!

How could this possibly be done!

Elisa reluctantly listed the known conditions, but the more she thought about it, the more confused she became. Frustrated, she threw down her pen and crawled into bed.

"The Magic Mirror isn't responding. This question doesn't involve real-world information, so it shouldn't be unanswerable. Simon's initial conclusion is that the Magic Mirror is just a library, a knowledge base, and has no intelligence of its own."

Who are you calling unintelligent!

Elisa kicked off the blanket, picked up a pen and paper, and was determined to prove herself.

……

Simon lay in bed, "Miss Elisa's Late Night Class" not started, while Miss Elisa was tackling logic problems.

Ah, this is the price I pay for losing 15 pounds.

Simon closed his eyes and slept for three hours. When he woke up, he found that the "classroom" was still quiet. His Miss Elisa was still struggling with logic problems.

That's normal. Although Miss Elisa claims to be an adult, she is actually still a minor and has a naive arrogance.

Although the story elements of Elisa's storyline seem very similar to those of The Count of Monte Cristo, the Count of Monte Cristo was already over 40 years old when he began his revenge.

Elisa was the same age the Count of Monte Cristo was when he was framed and imprisoned. In some ways, Elisa had already surpassed him, at least she hadn't gone to jail.

In his previous life, Simon had asked a friend in the planning team if the story of Elisa's route was based more on the famous Avengers from the well-known manga "Naruto".

The same family was wiped out, the same person turned to the dark side later on, and even the reason for the family's annihilation was the same: a conspiracy that the family was brewing.

After arriving at the archipelago, Elisa experienced many things and worked as an adventurer for several years, but like that famous avenger, her experiences were only under the protection of the village and her teacher.

The one who was better off was Elisa, who was only three years old when her family was in trouble. She didn't have many memories of it, and her emotions were rather vague, so she wasn't as obsessive. Her revenge was more out of a sense of duty.

With proper guidance, a young girl will not become that tyrannical queen.

Simon pulled back the covers and started editing his journal.

Simon woke up and recalled his dream. There was no nightmare, nor any sudden knowledge. His teacher had probably really gone on a long journey and hadn't even had time to teach yesterday's dream lesson.

What?! It's dawn!

Elisa looked up blankly, the pen slipping from her hand. The paper still only contained the known conditions; she couldn't find any solution.

……

Simon enjoyed a delicious breakfast, and his sense of belonging to the estate increased.

"Intimacy +2"

"Intimacy Level: 98"

Note: Reaching a friendship level of 100 will unlock additional features.

A week has passed since the East District murder. Miss Elisa's life is peaceful. She attended another neighborhood gathering, but this time the gathering was fruitless. The attendees were just ordinary wealthy businessmen and senior employees.

The servant's logic puzzle was forgotten in the closet, and Eleanor and Mabel seemed to have forgotten about the East End as well, and did not organize any further exploration.

Had it not been for Eleanor sending an invitation to a small party, Elisa would have thought that her two allies had forgotten about her.

This afternoon is the time for the gathering. According to the letter, it is a private party that Eleanor and Mabel have invited to a few close friends.

Attending such a party signifies that Miss Elisa, the wealthy businesswoman, has officially entered the social circles of Eleanor and Mabel.

It's just unknown how high up Eleanor and Mabel's social circle really is.

Thinking about this, Elisa felt a headache coming on.

In the old days, one could know a family's power by their titles and official positions, but that's no longer the case.

Power is no longer tied to titles; the emerging bourgeoisie has gained unimaginable status. While bureaucrats manage specific affairs, those who issue decrees and formulate plans are now members of parliament.

The Mabel family were aristocrats and also part of the emerging bourgeoisie. Her father was a member of parliament and had considerable wealth. Mabel could easily put out £100,000 to establish a workers' compensation fund.

On the military side, nobles have almost disappeared, and what remains are professional soldiers without titles. To guard against assassination, officers pay great attention to their privacy, making it even more difficult to judge power.

I wonder how much influence the Eleanor family has in the military, and if they have any generals among them.

To influence the investigation of extraordinary cases, one must be at least at the school level!

Thinking about it this way, I can't compare to either Eleanor or Mabel.

However, if I reveal my true identity as the youngest fifth-tier transcendent being in the new century, coupled with my status as a student of the Moon Sage, the situation will be different.

Elisa regained her confidence and ate her breakfast with satisfaction.

Before heading to the party, she had one more thing to do.
