Mystery: Start with the Reader

"There was a rumor that someone at the party at night wanted to exchange the 'blood of the deep sea marlin' for the 'Fighter's' potion formula..."

“Now there are people who want to exchange ‘Fighter’ for extraordinary items that assist divination…

"But I don't have such an item in my hand...

“It’s hard to find even if you look for it temporarily!”

Alger frowned, thought seriously for a moment, and finally decided to pray to Mr. Fool to ask him to ask people from "Tower", "Judgement", and "World" on his behalf if they had similar items in their hands.

"Miss Magician, there's only so much I can do to help you. If you don't find it in the end, I can only say 'sorry'."

While thinking this in his mind, Alger sealed the room with his spirituality and assumed a praying posture.

…

Backlund, a small lecture was being held in a house in the Jowood District.

A man stood on the stage in the center of the hall, preaching his ideas eloquently and bringing a certain product into the audience's sight without leaving any trace.

The vast majority of the audience sitting in the living room are housewives, and their economic conditions are not bad. They are almost all hostesses of middle-class families or families of skilled workers.

Only in the corner of the living room, a girl wearing long gloves and a bearded man beside her seemed out of place with the entire environment... But strangely, the man speaking on the stage seemed to turn a blind eye to these two people.

"Detective Moriarty, do you think this person is cheating?" Hazel asked strangely with her eyes widened.

"What do you think he is doing?" Sherlock Moriarty, also known as Klein, asked with a smile.

"Isn't he telling others what is good for their bodies?" Hazel asked in confusion.

"Look, even you believe it... He succeeded, didn't he?" Klein smiled, picked up a box similar to facial cream, and continued, "But this thing doesn't have the slightest effect he said."

"This...that's the data he just said?" Hazel suddenly asked, her eyes widening.

"Of course it's all made up, and so are the so-called 'industry certificates'." Klein shook his head, and then they saw a group of police officers suddenly burst in. The man who was talking endlessly was so frightened that he wanted to go through the back door. He escaped, but was caught by Sheriff Fassin who had already been blocked there.

After the women were shocked by the sudden change, most of them secretly hid a few bottles of facial cream on their bodies...

"So this is a fraud!" Hazel felt a lot for a moment, and felt that it would be difficult for her to play this role well.

"This is just a form of fraud."

After giving a casual answer, Klein looked at his watch, then used the "Roselle's Grip" to lift the "prohibition" on "light" being received by human eyes around him and Hazel, and prepared to take her to the next place. At the scene of "fraud".

In order to earn these 50 pounds, he worked hard.

Fortunately, he met Sheriff Fassin and his son Iris at Harvest Church before, which solved his problem of calling the police.

But at this moment, Klein's ears suddenly heard an illusory layer of prayers.

He glanced at Hazel, whose face was thoughtful, bowed slightly and said:

"I'm going to the bathroom."

The latter nodded lightly and let him do what he wanted.

After entering the bathroom, Klein locked the door, walked four steps backward, and arrived above the gray mist.

Sitting in the seat of "The Fool" and taking a glance, Klein saw that the crimson stars of "The Hanged Man" were shrinking and expanding.

Spreading his spirituality, he soon figured out what the Hanged Man's needs were.

He couldn't help but laugh at himself:

"An item that assists divination? Isn't that what I am? It's just a bit of a loss to exchange it for the main material of a 'Master of Magic'..."

Then, Klein, who was "cold" by his own humor, shook his head, "forgot" his own ridicule, and thought seriously:

"No need to ask about 'The World', I'm sure it doesn't exist... Even if Miss Temperance can get it, it will take a while, I'm afraid she won't be able to catch up...

"Miss 'Judgement' seems to be still performing her mission. According to her previous report, she seems to be surrounded by high-sequence experts. She may even be absent from next week's Tarot meeting... It's better not to disturb her.

"So, is it only the 'tower' that's most likely?"

While thinking this in his mind, Klein threw the image of the "Hanged Man" praying into the crimson stars of the "Tower".

…

In the underground workshop of Aroma Manor, after several failures, Abner finally succeeded in giving the ability of "spiritual piercing" to a spiritual material by praying to the "unknown place" behind the "Pure White Eye". , and based on it, an extraordinary object was created.

It was a beautifully shaped silver-white necklace, and its main body was one of the gifts that Miss Audrey had chosen.

——Karen asked Abner to help him choose a gift for Lydia, and Abner subcontracted this matter to Audrey, who packed a package of jewelry, pendants, The hat was given to Abner together and allowed him to choose.

Abner removed the gems inlaid on one of the necklaces, replaced them with spiritual materials that gave him the power, and used his "artisan" ability to process them a second time before finally finalizing them.

Of course, Elaine also played a key role in this. Without her to continue to boil water, the steam machinery would have no power, and it would be difficult to polish spiritual materials into the appearance of gems.

“Although the ‘spiritual piercing’ ability contained in this necklace is weaker than normal due to the problem of the carrier, it is still sufficient...

"In addition, due to the influence of the 'amplification' ability, the effective time of this item has been increased to about 8 months... Alas, it is still a bit short, and the price will definitely not be raised. I wonder if Miss Gwen will do it if I price it at 400 pounds. Buy it..."

Just when he wanted to test the power of the necklace and give it a name that would make people want to buy it, he suddenly found that his eyes became illusory, showing a thick gray-white mist.

Immediately afterwards, the image of the "Hanged Man" with his hands clasped in prayer came into his eyes.

"'Items that assist divination'?

"Change to the 'Fighter' formula?

"Used to purchase the 'blood of deep sea fish'?"

After listening to "The Hanged Man"'s request, Abner, who subconsciously praised Mr. "Fool", had a slightly subtle expression and thought:

“Although I don’t have any extraordinary items to assist in divination, I still have time to make one now…

"But the reason why 'The Hanged Man' wants it is because he wants to exchange it for the 'Fighter' formula from Miss Gwen, then exchange the 'Fighter' formula for 'Deep Sea Fish Blood', and finally exchange the 'Deep Sea Fish Blood' 'Sold to Fors...

“In that case, why don’t I just use the ‘Fighter’ formula to buy ‘Deep Sea Fish Blood’? Wouldn’t it reduce a lot of processes?

"Hmm... However, the operation of 'The Hanged Man' also has benefits. At least the transaction volume of my extraordinary party will definitely increase, and the needs of more people will be met...

"This way everyone will be satisfied, and my trade fair will benefit from this... It's worth helping him..."

Abner, who had a small calculation in his mind, quickly got back to work again.

And Elaine also silently drank a bottle of spiritual restoration potion prepared by her employer...

…

At seven o'clock in the evening, Alger touched a small mirror in his arms and walked into the secret door of the "Fragrant Leaf Bar".
