Chapter 30: Catching the Adulterer

Wednesday morning, Joe Wood District, across from Coim. [with _ dream]ā

Crane sat on a wooden bench outside the door of the Kirdret department store, clutching a paper bag containing the most famous Sim Kee Dixi pie in one hand and a cup of sweet iced tea in the other.

Next to him, a homeless man curled up on the other side of the bench to sleep, but was woken up by the mall's security personnel after ten minutes and chased away.

Crane wore gold-rimmed glasses of modest prescription on the bridge of his nose and a half-height silk top hat, indistinguishable from most of the gentlemen in the neighborhood.

He leisurely looked at the Coim company across the road, raised his right hand, and took a hard bite of the Xin Ji Dixi pie, only to feel that the meat was fragrant and full of aftertaste.

The reason why this pie from Dixi Bay can stand out among many pies in the south is that it is willing to put oil and use fatty meat, but it is very chopped, fat and thin are mixed, and it will not be greasy.

The juice with a strong meaty aroma is immersed in the outer layer of the crust, neutralizing the dryness, making up for the shortcomings, and making the wheat aroma clearly presented, while the small pieces of chopped apples with it stimulate the appetite and dissolve the oily taste with a slightly sour and sweet taste.

It's OK...... Although the weather in Beckland is bad and the pollution is serious, it is far better than Tingen in other aspects, you can find different styles of food in different places, all kinds of operas and plays, as long as you are not afraid of spending money, you can see it...... Although you may not be able to eat or see, at least you have the right to choose, and this is the benefit of being a metropolis...... Klein picked up the sweet iced tea and took a sip of it comfortably.

He never took his eyes off the door of Coim's company, and for the sake of the £0 income, he sat here at 8 o'clock, and bought breakfast on the way.

Of course, for most private investigators, a single commission can earn 0 pounds is definitely an enviable deal, which is equivalent to about 3 weeks' salary of a normal middle class!

According to Marie Gale, her husband is currently the first manager of the Coim Company and is Luke Sommer's boss, but their shares in the Coim Company originate from Mary's father and are her inheritance.

One of the immediate reasons for her suspicion that her husband had a mistress was that an employee in the company had revealed to her that Doragu Gale would leave alone every Wednesday and Friday morning and would not return until the afternoon, and that he would leave work early two days a week, and that Mary had never seen her husband enter the house before seven o'clock.

After breakfast, Klein waited for more than an hour before finally seeing the target walk out of Coim's company.

He wears a black top hat, a double-breasted coat made of tweed, a standard bow tie, a slightly chubby figure, pale yellow sideburns, slightly brown eyes, and a somewhat long face.

Doragu Gael...... Crane silently read his target's name, brushed the ground to his feet, grabbed his cane and the heavy portable camera, and walked to the other side.

Instead of having his own coachman pick him up, Doragu stood on the side of the road, looking around for a horse-drawn carriage.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Crane crossed the road, came to his side, pretended to be careless, and collided with the other party.

"I'm sorry, I'm looking for my way. Crane bowed his head and apologized.

Doragus frowned for a moment, but remained silent and waved his hand to indicate that it was nothing.

Crane hurriedly bent over, bowed, and walked down the street.

He hit Dorag just now, not to steal the other party's belongings, so that he could easily complete the tracking with the "divination staff method", which was too easy to be discovered and detected.

At the moment of the collision, Klein only did one thing, and that was to quietly tuck the spare buttons of his double-breasted long dress into one of the decorative pockets of his target with the agility of the "Joker".

Turning the street, he stopped, looked back, and saw Doragu boarding a cab.

Klein was not in a hurry to follow, and waited patiently for a few minutes before slowly getting into another carriage and saying to the coachman:

"Follow my instructions and go to the end of this street first. ”

"Good. The driver didn't ask why.

Inside the carriage, Crane pestle his cane and began divination.

However, instead of pointing to Doracul Gale, his divination statement becomes "the whereabouts of the spare buttons of my dress"!

The original and most practical use of the "Divination Staff" was to find objects, and only the "Fortune Teller" could use it to find people, and Klein restored it to its original appearance this time.

And the most convenient and easiest items to find are the ones that belong to them!

Along the way, Klein kept asking the driver to adjust his direction, and finally arrived at a house on the street in the Hillston district, and as he walked around, he noticed that there was a garden and lawn behind it, which was different from ordinary houses.

His "Divination Staff" told him that Doragu Gale was in this house.

After paying the 2 soles, Klein walked to the door with the marble statue and saw two men in black-and-white checkered uniforms who seemed to imitate police officers.

"I don't know you, what about your membership certificate?" One of the brown-skinned men of Southern Continent blood reached out to stop Klein.

"Membership certificates?" Crane asked rhetorically, tucking his heavy camera behind him and frowning slightly.

The man with brown skin suddenly froze his face:

"This is the Kragg Club, which is only accessible to our members and guests brought by the members, limited to one. ”

Klein snorted:

"How do I join your club?"

"You can only join if you have been recommended by two members. The brown-skinned man did not drive away roughly, but patiently answered the other party's questions.

There is no guarantee that the other party will turn around and join the club.

"Okay. Klein twitched the corners of his mouth and decided to activate Plan B.

He found a hotel near the Kragg Club and asked for a short four-hour stay.

Then he locked the door, drew the curtains, and stepped into the gray mist, revealing tawny parchment and a round-bellied pen in front of him.

Taking a breath, Klein wrote down the exact same divination sentence as before:...

"The whereabouts of the spare buttons of my dress. ”

This time, it's no longer the "Divination Method", but the "Dream Divination Method"!

The reason why it is not carried out in the outside world is because Klein feels that the so-called Crag Club looks quite high-end, and suspects that there may be more powerful extraordinaires in it, so in order not to waste time, he simply put it in place at one time.

In the gray dream world, Crane first saw Dorag's black coat made of tweed, hanging from a coat rack, and in front of him was a round table on the carpet.

The picture stretches, and Klein's eyes are met by the tumbling men and women, the male is none other than Doragu Gale, and the female is bronde, young and young, quite in her early twenties.

Her wrinkling expression of anguish was quite charming...... Why do I always see this kind of image...... Crane covered his eyes and woke up.

The fact that Doragu has a mistress should be certain...... It's how to get the evidence...... But this is limited to self-acquisition, only by sketching, not by camera...... I can't draw a picture with my bare hands, can I? It looks like I can't do it today, wait until I follow the woman and figure out her address and name, I don't believe it, they are in the cragg club every date...... Detective Klein quickly had the next idea.

Just as he was about to leave this mysterious space above the gray mist, something else suddenly came to mind.

That is, whether to do another divination by the way, to confirm whether the iron-black nematode that infiltrated his room was manipulated by the extraordinary person of the "soothsayer" pathway.

He didn't do this before, because he felt that the corresponding news was too lacking, it was difficult to make something out of nothing, and there would definitely be a result of failed divination, even above the gray fog, plus the first few times he came in, they all had important things, and he really didn't have time to take care of other problems, so he didn't care about it, and now, being idle is also idle, and divination will not die.

As for the question of whether it is risky to contact Azik, he has been divining it for a long time, and the answer is yes, it is risky, and it is not small, and it can only be used as the last last resort.

After writing the corresponding divination statement, Crane untied the silver chain in his cuffs and let the citrine pendant hang from the paper.

"The iron-black nematode that infiltrated my room earlier was manipulated by the extraordinaries of the 'Fortune Teller' pathway. ”

......

After meditating seven times, Crane opened his eyes and saw that the pendulum was turning clockwise, with a speed and amplitude.

Sure...... The answer is yes!

Isn't it supposed to fail? Crane didn't expect to get such an answer, and according to his soothsayer's instincts, such a divination would most likely fail.

Why? He frowned, thought about it for a while, and decided to change the divination method and change the divination target.

He wants to divinate the manipulator directly, using the "dream divination method"!

This time, Crane saw nothing in his dream, and could not receive the corresponding revelation from the extraordinary person of the "soothsayer" path.

"That's right......" he whispered, looking back at his previous divination, lost in thought.

If the conditions are lacking and the divination fails, it will be the same as the later one...... Could it be, could it be that this mysterious space has made up for itself with the necessary conditions? It contains some of the things of the "soothsayer" path? Klein suddenly had a flash of inspiration and a bold idea!

Perhaps, this mysterious space above the gray fog has something to do with the "soothsayer" path!

Well...... Crane tapped the edge of the old long table, but after thinking about it, he couldn't find any other proof, so he could only press the matter for the time being, ready to return to the real world.

"In any case, at least one thing is certain, and that is that the ambassador has a middle-order extraordinaire with the 'soothsayer' path, and whether he is a member of the Esoteric Order or not is not important...... This might be my chance to get Sequence 7, or even Sequence Potions Formula!" Crane spread his spirituality, enveloping himself, and falling into the gray mist.

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

At the same time, in the study of Viscount Glerinte's house.

Audrey asked her master to guard the door outside, looked at Hugh and Furth herself, and muttered for a few seconds:

"I have a mission that I need your help with. ”

"What task?" Hugh's eyes lit up, and he seemed to smell the ink of the banknotes.

Audrey smiled ceremoniously:

"Assassinate the ambassador of Intis to the Kingdom, Bekron Jean Madan. ”
