Chapter 110: Confirmation

After thinking for a moment, Klein decided to go home first and confirm one thing.

And he believes that if the Doom Puppet's actions last night were not deliberately to let him see the pattern on the paper, then the captain and their follow-up inspection would definitely find clues, and whether they report it or not will not affect the overall situation.

Otherwise, it is worth considering.

That's what Klein wants to confirm next.

He rode back to Daffodil Street in a trackless carriage, and when he returned home, his brother Benson and sister Melissa, who were in a Sunday state, had not yet gotten up, and the living room was quiet and dim.

Crane boiled a pot of water, threw some tea leaves, and ate a loaf of oatmeal bread before walking up the stairs with his coat, hat, and cane.

He subconsciously slowed down his steps and did not make any noticeable noise.

As soon as he reached the second floor, he saw the door of the bathroom suddenly open, and Melissa, dressed in an old cloth dress, came out with a sleepy-eyed appearance.

"You're back......" Melissa rubbed her eyes a little confused.

Crane covered his mouth, yawned, and said:

"Yes, I need a good dream, don't wake me up before lunch. ”

Melissa let out an "um", and suddenly said as if she remembered something:

"Benson and I are going to St. Selena's Church in the morning for prayer and Mass, and lunch may be a little late. ”

As not too devout believers in the Goddess of the Night, she and Benson went to church once every two weeks, and Crane, who was a night watchman, never entered the church except for that time when he was followed by a member of the Esoteric Order.

No, I'm in church every day, it's just the underground of the church...... Klein subconsciously defended himself in his heart.

He was currently very worried that the goddess would abandon him as a hypocrite, and if the ritual magic did not get a response at the critical moment, it would be a big joke......

But think about old Neil, the goddess is quite tolerant of the night watcher, well, that's right!,Crane puffed himself up.

These divergent thoughts flashed, and he looked at Melissa, smiled and nodded:

"No problem, I can sleep longer. ”

Passing Melissa, he entered his bedroom and locked the door with his backhand.

Immediately afterward, he took out the ceremonial silver dagger and created a sealed spiritual wall.

Then, Crane took four steps backwards, silently reciting the incantation, fending off the frenzied screams, and entered the gray mist.

He is the only living creature in this illusory and infinite world, sitting at the head of an ancient mottled bronze table.

After a few dozen seconds of calm, Crane took out the parchment and wrote the divination incantation:

"The Doom Muppet showcased that pattern. ”

At that moment last night, although Klein could see the mysterious pattern on the paper clearly, due to nervousness and haste, he only remembered the approximate and could not recall the specific details, but this was not a problem, for the soothsayer, as long as he saw it and remembered such a thing, he could reproduce it!

- According to occult theory, spirits remember everything they see, and if they do it in the right way, they can re-enact a scene at a particular moment.

At this point, Klein even thinks that the theory of psychological alchemy described by the "psychic" Dai Li has some truth, and human memories are only islands exposed on the surface of the sea and cannot carry too much, so most of the information remembered by spirits has become the subconscious, becoming the main body of the island underwater.

And spirituality itself, if not the entire ocean, encompasses the entire sea around the island.

After reciting the divination incantation, Crane leaned back and fell asleep in meditation.

In the hazy, distorted, fragmented world, he saw Zaza's open Chanis Gate again, and heard a heavy grinding sound.

The puppet in a black classical court dress clung to the open half of the door and unfolded the paper in his hand.

On the paper, there are numerous mysterious symbols, which together form a vertical eye.

Klein looked at the pattern deeply, took the initiative to withdraw from the dream, and then expressed the memory that had not yet faded with the help of the special above the gray mist:

On the brown parchment, the vertical eyes "look up" upward, evil and mysterious.

Klein thought for a moment, and wrote underneath this eye:

"This is the key to the treasure left behind by the House of Antigonus. ”

Placing the pen, he untied the silver chain wrapped around his cuff and held it in his left hand until the citrine pendant hung steadily over the divination statement and the mysterious vertical eye, and there was no longer a noticeable shaking.

Crane closed his eyes and silently recited the words in an ethereal and calm manner.

Seven times later, he opened his eyes and saw the citrine pendant spinning slightly clockwise with a silver chain.

And this is affirmed in the spiritual pendulum method.

"The vertical eye pattern is really the key to the treasure left behind by the Antigonus family......" Crane nodded slightly as if in thought.

His fingers tapped slowly on the edge of the long bronze table, and he muttered to himself silently:

"Because of the death of Riel Bieber and the severance of the descendants of the House of Antigonus, that note regards me, the 'soothsayer' who came into contact with it and is still alive, as the inheritor?"

"It affects 3-0625, leaving the key to the treasure so that the other party can show me when I take the turn of Chanisgate?"

"There is nothing wrong with this logic, but it still doesn't convince me. ”

"How does that note confirm that the blood descendants of the House of Antigonus are extinct?"

"And I'm a completely irrelevant person...... If I had the blood of the Antigonus family, the original owner would not have committed suicide in the first place. ”

"Well, it doesn't matter if you don't tell the captain about this matter, I'll look into it. ”

Crane then divined the location of the Antigonus family's treasure, but no doubt did not get the details, the only thing that was certain was that, as Siris's letter to Mr. Z had guessed, the treasure was related to the main peak of the Honakis Mountains, the ancient land of night.

After divining these things, Crane noticed that the crimson star with the sound of prayer had made a faint fluctuation again.

He touched the illusory star in response to the pleading, and saw the brown-and-yellow haired boy in a distinctive black tight-fitting suit again.

The boy was still on his knees, still facing the pure crystal ball, still muttering something in a low voice.

At this time, Crane, who had learned a small amount of dragon language, finally barely understood one of the sentences:

"Pray...... Save...... Father and mother. ”

What a dragon's language...... Where else is the dragon language spoken? It's all antiques in millennia...... It's a pity, I, the mysterious master above the gray mist, is just an empty shelf, and I can't save it if I want to...... Crane shook his head and sighed, deciding to observe for a while.

I'll wait until I know enough words in the dragon language to understand what happened to his father and mother...... Klein retracted his spirituality, wrapped himself around, and plummeted downward.

Back in the bedroom, he lifted the spiritual wall, changed into old but comfortable clothes, lay down on the bed, and began to make up for sleep.

Klein slept until half past twelve, until Melissa, who had prepared lunch, knocked on the door.

After a rather hearty lunch, he saw Melissa take the gauze hat that matched the new dress, and looked like she was going out.

"What else do you have to do this afternoon?" Klein asked in confusion.

Sitting on the sofa, frowning and studying grammar books, Benson replied without raising his head:

Mrs. Shore next door told Melissa that there was a lecture on family matters in the afternoon in the municipal hall, and that Melissa was going to listen to it and learn how to deal with the daily problems of the family. ”

Melissa nodded and said:

"I asked Selena and Elizabeth to accompany me. ”

"Yes, I want the lecturer to tell you that a family like ours needs to hire at least one handyman. Klein said with a smile.

Seeing that Melissa wanted to open her mouth to refute, he immediately added:

"We want to invest our limited time in something more valuable. ”

Melissa was stunned for a moment, and it took a long time before she pursed her lips, put on her gauze hat, and opened the door to go out.

............

At two o'clock in the afternoon, Klein reappeared at Black Thorn Security.

"Didn't you go back to rest?" asked Roseanne and Dunn Smith, who happened to be in the reception hall, at the same time.

Klein smiled and said:

"I was going to go to the Divination Club, but I always remembered last night's events, so I came here first, is there any reply from the Templar?"

Dunn glanced at Rothanne, turned silently, walked to the partition, and walked into his office.

Roshan grimaced at his back and whispered fiercely:

"The captain is really ......"

Well done!" Klein complimented, and followed Dunn into his office with a smile.

Seeing the door close, Dunn sniffed his pipe and said:

"The Templar has confirmed that it was the Antigonus family notebook and repositioned it as a 'Level 1' seal, but unfortunately, you won't be able to read it enough to be secrecy. ”

Level "1", a high danger level, only the Bishop and the Night Watch Team Leader above the level know what is going on, which means that the Captain can't figure out what's going on...... Highly dangerous, no wonder...... Klein thought with a little regret and a lot of relief.

Dunn glanced at him and continued:

"The Templar has also asked us to check if there are any other items behind the Chanis Gate that have been infected with this note, and after confirmation, only '3-0625' is anomalous, and we have replaced its sealing procedures. ”

"Anything else to discover?" Klein asked, pretending to be surprised.

Dunn shook his head:

"Nope. ”

Crane didn't talk much about this topic after a few pleasantries, and then left to go to the divination club to continue his "digestion journey".

............

Inside the municipal chapel.

Melissa, Selena, and Elizabeth, three best friends, sat near the door, waiting for the lecture to begin.

"If she doesn't speak well, we'll slip out. Selena suggested with gusto.

Elizabeth immediately agreed:

"Go to Harrods. ”
