Mystery: Start with the Reader

In the bathroom, Klein locked the door and thought about what the silver mirror named "Arrodes" had just secretly shown to him:

“‘Your faithful and humble servant Arrodes is at your service’?

"What's going on? This mirror was ruthlessly toying with Deacon Ikanser of the 'Church of Steam' just now...how did it become like this in the blink of an eye?"

Klein was funny and confused, as if he was talking to himself or to someone.

As his words fell, the image in the half-length mirror in front of the sink suddenly swayed and transformed into a woman wearing a black palace dress, who was Miss Sharon.

She held her chin and thought for a moment before saying succinctly: "You are the favored one."

What you mean is that the silver mirror seems to have a certain relationship with the spiritual world... and the mysterious space above the gray fog also seems to be involved with the spiritual world. As a favored person of "The Fool", I have gray fog on my body. Was his aura detected by the mirror named Arrods?

After Klein "translated" Sharon's words, he felt that it was not unreasonable, and it also happened to be an "excuse"...

With this in mind, he said to Sharon: "Take care of me, and I'll report this to..."

"Okay." Sharon nodded lightly, and then she saw Sherlock reciting Mr. Fool's honorable name in a barely audible voice, then took four steps backwards, and then became motionless.

"Those four steps...are they a ritual to please Mr. Fool?" Sharon emerged from the mirror and thought thoughtfully.

…

In the mysterious space above the gray fog, Klein, who was sitting in the position of "The Fool", first spread his spirituality and listened to Miss Justice's request.

——The reason why he entered the bathroom and above the gray mist was because he heard the cry of "justice".

The content of "Justice"'s request was not what Klein expected. It was that the other party had finally passed a series of preliminary inspections of the "Psychological Alchemy Society", and tonight she was about to face the final test, which required Mr. Fool's help. Bless.

Klein was already very familiar with the process of "Paper Angel" blessing, so he started the operation step by step, and soon shook out a paper man whose cutting skills had improved but was still rough.

No accident, the paper man gathered the power stirred by the "Black Emperor" card above the gray mist, and turned into a huge angel with twelve pairs of black wings, surrounding Miss Justice through the crimson stars.

After doing this, Klein looked at the expanding and shrinking crimson stars on the other side, which belonged to Mr. "Tower".

It doesn't seem like he's in a hurry, he should just leave a message... Well, does he have a way to save Talim?

With this thought in his mind, Klein clicked on the message in Crimson Star. After listening to it, he couldn't help but frown.

"There is actually a curse on Talim that can only be broken by angels?

"And Mr. Tower really asked an 'angel' to help?

"What is his origin...could he really be the favored one of the Mother Goddess of the Earth?"

Sharon told him this last point, but even Sharon herself was not sure.

The more Klein thought about it, the more he felt overwhelmed. This was not because of Mr. "Tower"'s background. After all, he still trusted this "erudite" gentleman after spending so long in the Tarot Club...

But the difficulty of rescuing Talim was far beyond his imagination. This was not something that could be exchanged for just a little bit of information about "Baron Larry"...

Although Mr. "Tower" didn't mention the extra compensation, he even asked for his help to hide it from Miss "Judgement"...

But "The World" can't really pretend to be stupid and say nothing. After all, this goes against the principle of "equivalent exchange" set by Mr. "Fool".

The only question now is, what should "the world" offer to compensate for the favor of an angel?

Alas, I can only wait until the next Tarot meeting and have a private chat with Mr. "Tarot" to ask... I hope he needs some high-end knowledge that I know.

Thinking of this, Klein exhaled and let his spirit body fall back to reality.

Seeing Sharon's blue eyes looking over, Klein coughed and said, "Mr. Fool said, don't worry about that mirror."

Because it’s useless to care…

Sharon nodded gently, and her figure gradually faded and disappeared.

Klein returned to the living room after washing his hands, looking at the bullet holes in the wall and lost in thought:

Should I hang a cheap oil painting to cover it up, or should I repair it or paint it?

Or ask Mr. "Tower"'s teacher to ask "Mechanical Heart" if he can reimburse the decoration costs? After all, this can barely be considered the result of their ambush...

…

Hillston District, Seventh Avenue, the home of Island, a member of the "Inner Alchemy Society".

Relying on the "angel blessing" given by Mr. Fool, Audrey successfully passed the final inspection of the two men in front of her and became a formal member of the "Psychological Alchemy Society".

——One of the two men was the psychologist Hilbert Alucard who was introduced to Audrey by Emma’s mother, Mrs. Norma, the sister of Duchess Negan, and the other was convened by a previous psychological seminar. By Stephen Hampres.

They are all the backbone of the "Psychological Alchemy Society".

Afterwards, the two men popularized the origins and propositions of the "Psychic Alchemy Society" for Audrey, mentioned Hermes and the "Psychic Dragon", and finally gave her a "Mind Reader" potion.

But what no one noticed was that when they mentioned those two names, something quietly sneaked into the island of their own souls.

After leaving Esilante's house with the potion, Audrey was quiet all the way and didn't say much until she entered the room and briefly dismissed the maid Anne and others. Then she turned her head and smiled at the big golden retriever Susie:

"You have your magic potion~"

Susie looked at the bottle of "Mind Reader" potion and wagged her tail happily.

"When you become a 'mind reader', I have another gift to give you." Audrey looked at the gold-rimmed glasses hanging around its neck and said with a smile.

"Audrey, what gift?" Susie asked curiously, tilting her head.

"A pair of earrings called 'Dragon Eyes'."

After buying this item from Miss Judgment, Audrey has worn it a few times. However, since it is an outdated style, she only wears it at home. If she goes out, Anne will not allow her to wear it. ’s... After all, it may make others think that the Hall family is experiencing a financial crisis, which may lead to misunderstanding.

But what's the use of wearing extraordinary items at home? So after thinking about it, Audrey decided to leave it to Susie for safekeeping temporarily.

"Earrings? What's the use of them?" Susie asked puzzledly.

Audrey thought for a moment, and then replied affirmatively: "Wearing them, those wild dogs that are courting you will not dare to approach!"

After all, it is "Longwei"...

When Susie heard this, her tail wagged even more cheerfully.

…

At two o'clock in the morning, in the lounge of "Dream Maze Tower".

Abner, who also received a pair of earrings, transformed into a beautiful lady with curly black hair and blue eyes under Hugh's gaze.

"Tracy?" Hugh had seen Lieutenant General Disease during the deepest period of "Daniel's Labyrinth", so he remembered her appearance.

"Yes...since Talim's matter involves the curse of the 'witch', then I will simply change into another witch with a backstage to save her. In the future, even if the other party relies on special means to investigate something, they will point the finger at the special one." Lacey.

"If they mess up, they will make a profit..."

Abner explained with a smile.

This smile made Xio stunned. She tilted her head slightly and asked, "You seem to have arranged 'teleportation' altars in two places, but you only showed me the one outside the city... because Can that part of the city be used only once?”

"That place in the Jowood District is destined to be abandoned! I have also made arrangements that will self-destruct once used... After all, 'teleporting' in the city of Backlund is still too dangerous... Moreover, those who are chasing Tully Mu's people may also be found there.

"And the place outside the city is what I need to use when I return...and it's in a good location and can be used for a long time." Abner said as he changed into the clothes commonly worn by pirates.

This is Tracy's style... but it might be a little cold after going out. After all, Backlund is in the middle of winter.

"Where do you want to take him?" Xio controlled his gaze and asked curiously.

"Send it to Edwina's ship...I have already made an agreement with her.

"She was also satisfied with Talim's academic qualifications."
