Chapter 187: Recognition

At this time, Leonard suddenly snorted, and asked, "Witch? Captain, what do you mean by that, that the lady who escaped just now is Tris? She turned into a woman?"

Speaking of this, he suddenly paused, and then suddenly realized: "So, this can perfectly explain the sudden disappearance of the 'instigator' Tris, and it is also in line with the characteristics that the upper echelons of the Witch Sect are all women."

"What?" The "Corpse Collector" Frye blurted out in surprise, as if he didn't understand what Leonard was saying.

Klein, who was still thinking about how to reasonably tell the information obtained from the Tarot Club, was taken aback for a moment, and then looked at Captain Dunn, wanting to hear what he had to say. If there is anything incomplete, Make excuses for yourself.

It's like when I wanted to answer Miss "Justice"'s question at the Tarot meeting, but was preempted by "Tower" or "The Hanged Man".

"According to Daly, after becoming a Sequence 7, the Extraordinary of the Witch Path will indeed become a woman." Dunn nodded first, approved Leonard's guess, then pointed to the puppets with names on them and said, " But I can't confirm whether it's Terry... Triss, after all, it may be other Witch Sect members who did this."

"Potions can do this kind of thing!" Frye still sighed in disbelief.

"Combined with the cursed person on the puppet, I think she should be right. After all, the three of us destroyed her plan to instigate Joyce to kill people. It is reasonable for her to want revenge on us." Leonard judged it as a matter of course .

"Don't jump to conclusions without definite evidence..." After Dunn criticized Leonard's frivolity, he solemnly said to Klein, "I leave it to you."

Hearing the trust in the captain's tone, Klein nodded. After thinking for a moment, he quickly arranged the ceremony and placed a full-length mirror that was shattered by the witch's "mirror substitute method" in front of him. Then, with Hermes Chanting in language:

"...I pray that this mirror will be temporarily restored, that it will reflect all the people it has reflected in the past month."

...

As the mantra was read out, a gloomy brilliance floated on the mirror, and then a figure was reflected.

It was a young girl with soft black hair, a round face, and a gentle and sweet temperament.

"Sure enough, she looks very similar to 'Instigator' Tris, so she must be right." Leonard said with a smile when he saw this scene.

Dunn also nodded solemnly,

Looking sideways at Klein, he said, "Try divination about the target's current location."

"Okay." Klein put the cane on the clothes that Triss hadn't had time to destroy, then recalled the target's appearance and corresponding information, and silently recited the divination sentence:

"Tris, no, the whereabouts of Triss".

After seven times, the black cane inlaid with silver was actually wobbly, unable to fall down, but stabilized in place.

Divination was disturbed.

...

In the deep night, Klein and Leonard walked about 500 meters before seeing the stagecoach stop.

After waiting for a while, they returned to Iron Cross Street. One went to the nearby police station to ask for assistance in blocking the pier and train station, and the other went directly to their home on Narcissus Street.

After parting with Klein, Leonard looked at his colleague's back, pretended to be listening, and then said to himself:

"Is it impossible to hold a ceremony using that severely damaged mirror as a medium to present the figure so clearly?

"Klein seems to have secretly used some techniques that have been passed down within the blood race?

"Sure enough, like me, he is the 'protagonist' hiding a secret!"

...

After returning to the townhouse at No. 2 Narcissus Street, Klein quickly ran to the second floor and entered the bedroom.

After locking the door of the house and sealing the room with a spiritual wall, he calmed down and took four steps counterclockwise, and then appeared in the majestic palace above the gray fog again amidst crazy ravings.

Sitting on the high-back chair that belonged to the Fool, Klein was going to respond to the reliable companion recommended by Mr. "Tower" first, and let the matter enter the "examination process".

He reached out and pointed towards the circle of light that was constantly rippling because Xio chanted his real name, in order to establish a connection.

Immediately afterwards, the mysterious space above the entire gray fog trembled slightly for a few seconds. And when everything subsided, a blurred figure appeared on the edge of the long bronze table.

Xio opened his eyes drowsily, and saw the boundless gray fog, an old high-backed chair, and the black shadow looking down at him.

Klein looked at Xio carefully, and then cut off the contact as planned.

The petite figure with hazy face disappeared, but there was a group of crimson illusory stars in the gray mist.

Looking at this scene, Klein frowned slightly, because he seemed to feel that the other party was inexplicably familiar.

Facing the "inexplicable sense of familiarity", other Extraordinary of Sequence 9 may try their best to recall, or may ignore and forget, but Seer is different. Klein directly manifests pen and paper, and writes down the divination statement:

"The source of the familiarity just now."

Immediately afterwards, he took the paper, leaned back, and silently recited the divination sentences.

After seven times, his eyes darkened and he fell into a deep sleep.

In the blurred and distorted world, Klein saw a petite girl shoot Tris the "Instigator" who was about to retreat into the shadows, killing her on the spot.

Beside the girl was a young man wearing a uniform similar to an officer, wearing a three-cornered hat, and a pair of copper-rimmed glasses on his nose.

...

This is the scene that seemed to hide something terrible when I divined Joyce's dream before?

Mr. "Tower"'s reliable friend is the girl who killed Triss in the dream?

So, in the picture just now, the young man next to the girl...could it be "Ta" himself?

This is very possible! Being able to take risks together in such a magical place shows that their relationship is close!

However, if that young man is really "Tower", then he should have made a certain disguise every time he participated in the Tarot Club? At least he has never worn glasses since he came above the gray mist...

Hehe, the lively thoughts of "Tower" I observed are indeed all disguised. He didn't trust "The Fool" as much as he appeared on the surface at first!

For some reason, Klein heaved a sigh of relief after reaching this conclusion.

…………

Jorwood District, in the garden villa at No. 28 Kingston Street.

After the banquet ended, Xio, who had been staying here overnight, slumped and sat up suddenly.

She had been worrying about the hidden dangers of chanting the honorable name of "The Fool". Not long after she fell asleep, she dreamed of a mysterious space, and dreamed of a gray foggy figure looking down at her.

The dream was so clear that it made her feel scared again

——Before she felt that Abner's attitude was not serious, she had already relaxed a lot.

Xio got up and put on her clothes, put on the "Ring of Prediction", and held the triangular thorn in her hand, as if this would bring her courage.

However, she still thought tremblingly:

"Is it a nightmare caused by fear, or is it haunted by evil spirits because of the gaze of a hidden existence?

"Will there be monsters taking advantage of the night to attack?

"Hmm... Do you want to go to Abner to exorcise the evil spirit now? Don't wait for the ceremony, let him help directly simulate the 'Holy Light' first?

"But it's so late...it doesn't seem very good..."

Xio struggled for a few seconds, looked at Forsi who was sleeping soundly next to him, and thought: She can still sleep so soundly, it means that she didn't see the mysterious space and the gray mist figure... In other words, only I was "watched" "It's...

After thinking about this, Xio was slightly relieved, but this also strengthened her determination to find Abner to exorcise the evil spirits.

At least tonight, you can't sleep with Fors, otherwise you might hurt her.

...

In the master bedroom on the third floor, although it was almost midnight, the gas lamp was still on.

Abner was originally feeling overwhelmed by the ridicule from Mike the reporter and other friends after the banquet, but suddenly felt spiritually touched, he quickly turned on his spiritual vision, and immediately saw an illusory monster coming out of the void.

Its whole body is made of white bones, with black flames flickering in its eye sockets, and its height is close to four meters.

This is Jane's messenger, suspected to be one of the inheritances inherited in that tomb of her ancestors.

Moreover, the appearance of this courier is very similar to the description of Mr. Azik's courier in the original book.

The Bone Messenger looked down at Abner, then took out a mirror and handed it to him.

Abner took the mirror in doubt, and then heard Jane's voice coming from inside:

"Abner? This mirror can share my vision, but not for communication...

"Well, the time is just right, a sea battle that may be recorded in history is about to begin."
