Chapter 195: Behind the Scenes

You don't have to be so wary, we met at the Nightwatcher headquarters in the afternoon, didn't we? At this point, Dai Li continued in an ethereal voice, "Hehe, you really don't want to seal the room? Personally, I don't mind being misunderstood by your brother and sister. ”

Crane nodded, but instead of approaching the desk, he took out a ceremonial silver knife from the bedside cabinet.

After quickly building the spiritual wall, he did not shy away from the lady in front of him, holding the revolver in his right hand, and flexibly untying the spiritual pendulum in the cuff with his left hand, holding it in one hand, and then silently reciting the divination sentence:

"The man in front of me is Dalie Simone herself, the Night Watchman."

Seven times later, he saw the citrine pendant spinning clockwise.

That's for sure!

Klein put down his hand to raise the gun, pondered for a moment, and repeated the previous question: "Ma'am, why did you come to me in the middle of the night?" ”

“…… You are truly a professional soothsayer. Dai Li first sighed, then sat down on the chair in front of the desk unceremoniously, and asked, "Do you remember what you said in Dunn's office before?" ”

"What I said to the captain...... Ma'am, what do you mean...... The 'Code of Fortune Teller' that I have summarized in the 'code of soothsayers' following the maxim of 'do as you please, but do no harm'? Crane asked tentatively.

"Yes, I heard you claim that 'it has effectively helped you to master potions, so that you don't have to hear sounds that you shouldn't hear, and you don't see pictures that you shouldn'......" said Lady Daly, looking at him with a smirk, and then said with great certainty:

"You're just fooling Dunn with that...... I'm pretty sure you're not as ignorant as you say you are, hehe, Mr. Moretti, I think you've figured it out! ”

"That's what you're here for?" Klein asked rhetorically neither affirmatively nor negatively.

Dai Li has clearly known the "way to play"...... He calmly judged in his heart.

"Yes." Dai Li nodded casually, then put away a slightly playful smile and said solemnly:

"I think we should be honest with each other about this matter, I know that you have summed up the method of acting, and you must also know that I have mastered the method of acting, hey, the unpleasant thing is that it took me nearly two years to clearly realize that you have only been an extraordinary person for a month and a half......"

Hearing Daly's words, Klein hesitated for a moment, then smiled calmly:

"It's because you're my role model."

He wanted to say "I'm just standing on the shoulders of giants", but in the end he decided not to give Russell the Great a chance to appear in his ears again.

"Even if you get inspiration from the aphorisms of voyeurs and determine your ideas from my experiences and performances, it only takes a little more than a month to clearly understand the 'play' and summarize your own 'soothsayer's code', which is enough to prove that you have outstanding wisdom and open thinking! Compared to some of the obtused detectives who are widely praised, I think you're even better. Dali chuckled.

"Slow Detective? Are you talking about that 'hero detective'? Crane asked as if unintentionally.

"You know Detective Brian, too? Has his fame spread to Tingen? Dai Li asked, a little surprised.

"I've heard the captain tell you about killing the Witch of Pain with Detective Brian......" Crane said, briefly mentioning Daly about yesterday's battle with the Witch.

"So you also encountered a witch...... I also suffered a curse......" Dai Li's face was a little solemn, but she quickly adjusted her mood, smiled again, and answered the previous question:

"Actually, I didn't help, the Witch of Pain died at the hands of Detective Blaine."

Detective Brian is so good? Can you kill Sequence 5 solo? He is indeed Mr. "Tower"!

However, the detective should only be his identity on the surface, and I don't know which organization he relies on behind him to be able to enter and exit that dangerous place similar to a dream, and he still has such profound knowledge......

While Klein was speculating, Ms. Daly returned to her previous topic, and she sighed:

"Once the Church notices that you have mastered the act, make a promise in front of the goddess's relics, make a vow, and not tell anyone about the play.

"So now I can only talk to someone like you who also has the ability to act, and your own state has already told me the answer before you answered, so I dare to say that term."

"You want me to reveal the 'trick' to the captains?" Klein thought for a moment, he had basically guessed what Ms. Daly meant.

"That's right, I didn't have a very clear idea of this before I made my vows and was told what exactly 'acting' meant, so I couldn't tell Dunn exactly what they were."

When Ms. Dai Li said this, there was an obvious entanglement in her tone, and it took a long time before she let out a sigh of relief and continued: "Dunn, he was a little evasive of me, I didn't understand why before, and I thought he was worried about some of my previous behavior...... But when I came back to Tingen this time, I opened my heart to him, only to find that he actually thought that he was not worthy of me......"

Ma'am, you don't have to talk to me about this, I'm not a late-night emotional show host. The corners of Klein's mouth twitched slightly, and he forcibly resisted the urge to complain.

"He thinks that I have become the 'necromancer' of Sequence 6 at this age, and that I have a bright future ahead of me, and that I will meet better men in the future...... It's ridiculous that such a glowing person should feel inferior in front of me...... "Lady Dai Li said to herself.

Madam, if you say such a thing, it means that you are also inferior...... What is this? Are you greedy and afraid of each other's light, but dare not embrace each other?

Although I have roughly guessed what the problem is...... But I'm really not a late-night emotional anchor...... Please forgive me for not being able to do anything!

The corners of Klein's mouth twitched again, trying to turn the subject back to the way it was, so he solemnly promised:

"I originally planned to use the special application to remind the captain of the existence of the 'acting law', and with your explanation, ma'am, I don't need to worry about anything."

Since Ms. Dai Li did not deny the "bright future" in her words, it shows that the matter of "acting method" itself will not be feared or excluded by the Night Church.

Dai Li noticed her gaffe at this time, quickly adjusted her tone, nodded with a smile and said, "Very good, you are really a kind guy!" I guess when Dunn is also promoted quickly, he won't turn a blind eye to my hints, right? ”

Ma'am, dare you say that 'take the initiative to open your heart' is just a hint to the captain?

As a "keyboard powerhouse", Klein secretly expressed disdain for this kind of guts behavior.

"I won't let you help in vain, if you have any questions, or if you need help, you can write to me, wait for me, hehe, wait for me to become an archbishop or a senior deacon, and learn why the church hides the secret of the 'playing law', and I will hint at some clues to you."

After Dali finished speaking, she told Crane how to summon her messenger. After that, seeing that the time had exceeded two o'clock, she took the initiative to say goodbye.

After seeing Dai Li's figure being carried away from his home by a strange spirit, Klein breathed a sigh of relief and said to himself silently, "The Necromantic Master is really powerful! I don't know what my ability in Sequence 6 will be in the future, and what special ...... it will be."

……

In a hotel on Iron Cross Street, Stewart, the "Mystic Master" sent by the Storm Church to investigate the traces of the Esoteric Order, suddenly opened his eyes, his originally frowning eyebrows relaxed, and he thought to himself:

"It turns out that the spirit that flew over before was controlled by Lady Dali...... Hehe, a night watchman who summed up the 'playing method' by himself? The logical ability is really strong, and it's a pity that I didn't go through the path of 'reader'.

"But since I know it, I still have to write it in the report, and submit it a day or two later at most...... I'm so sorry. ”

Thinking of this, he checked the feedback results of another "secret technique" used for reconnaissance......

"There is a clue to the Esoteric Order so soon...... Could it be too much of a coincidence? ”

……

On the outskirts of Tingen, in a house with a dark red chimney, a quill stopped writing in a notebook.

In the crimson light, the words in the pages of the book can be faintly seen:

"'Witch' Triss, dissatisfied with the interference of the Tingen Nightwatchers with her revenge, arranged a ritual that cursed Klein Moretti, Dunn Smith, and Leonard Mitchell for being defenseless......"

(One line of text is erased)

"Incredibly, Triss failed, none of the three Nightwatchers died under the curse, and Crane Moretti and Leonard Mitchell were all unscathed! Only Dunn Smith was affected by the curse, and the spirit that had been recovered for unknown reasons deteriorated again, even to the verge of losing control. ”

"Klein. Moretti summed up the way to play and wanted to reveal it to Dunn, but fortunately, Dalie. The arrival of Simone and an occult mentor left him unfinished. ”

"Dalie Simone approached Klein Moretti at night, hoping that he would tell Dunn Smith the full story of the cosplay, but this was learned by Stuart, the secret mentor who came to Tingen with Dalie Simone, and he decided to include it in the daily report of the joint investigation team."

"Ince Zangwill, who did not want the joint investigation team to stay in Tingen for long, took the initiative to release some information about the Esoteric Order, but this move seems to have aroused Stewart's suspicions......"
