Chapter 48: Tracking
It was easy for Lanlius to help Sirius find all the journals he needed.
This is because he had long decided to create a large iron mine in the Hornachis Mountains to carry out a large-scale fraud.
This can not only solve the shortage of money for his subsequent promotion, but also allow him to greatly digest the "cheater" potion in his body, which can be called killing two birds with one stone.
To this end, he made a lot of preliminary preparations.
Before the fraud really began, he came to the Deville Library to look through the iron ore materials and eliminate possible minor flaws and flaws in the narrative.
Holding a few periodicals, Siris went to the counter to check them out.
After a long period of comfortable life, this open-faced old cloth merchant, who was actually a member of the Aurora Society, almost lost his vigilance, and left his real address and name in a big way.
】
By the time he left the Deville Library, he and Lanlius looked like old friends who had known each other for years.
Lanrius values his status as a cloth merchant in Siris, intending to include him in his deception;
Originally, Siris just wanted to get more information about the main peak of Honaches, but after a long conversation, he noticed the young man's hidden madness and cunning, and felt that the other party was very suitable to become the lamb of the Lord and become a member of the Aurora Society.
It just so happened that Lanerus rented at 62 Howles Street, which was very close to his house at No. 19, and there were more opportunities for contact in the future.
He planned to make a few more contacts, and then find an opportunity to covertly reveal the ritual of praying for the 'true Creator' to descend an heir to Lanerus.
His idea was simple: after praying to the Lord, Ranlius would surely become his new companion.
……
The days were longer in the summer, and when Ebys arrived in Tingen, the sun had not yet set in the west.
After a brief divination in the bathroom at the steam train station, she decided to take a horse-drawn carriage to the East End.
Because, the divination results show that there are two main locations for items related to Sharon, which are in the east and north.
On the East End, after Abis found a hotel and settled in, it was already dark.
This is just the right way for her to move.
She disappeared and used Lady Sharon's blood beads to locate her, gradually approaching Olsna Street in the East End.
Eventually, she found Sharon's room in a single-family house with a garden.
Beyond the fence and through the garden, Abis came to the side of the house and leaped lightly onto one of the windowsills on the second floor.
She untied the invisible threads wrapped around her body, maneuvered them through the cracks in the window, and pulled the latch of the bulging belly window from the inside.
Then Abis opened the window and entered Mrs. Sharon's spacious, extravagant, and sumptuous bedroom.
Even after a month, the room was still filled with a surging fragrance.
Smelling this, the corners of Abis's mouth twitched, revealing a slightly mocking smile.
The scent has an aphrodisiac ingredient in it.
Abiss, who had been promoted to the Witch of Pain several years earlier, seemed to have forgotten that she used to use similar incense.
After a brief observation, Abis began to rummage through the room.
She had previously confirmed through newspapers and rumors, and found that Lady Sharon's identity as an extraordinary person did not appear to have been revealed, and that she had been buried in the Raphael Cemetery on the outskirts of the North End.
As a result, there may be some forbidden items hidden in this room that have not been dealt with.
After some time, Abis discovered a mezzanine through the invisible thread in the large safe in the corner of the room, near the wall.
A meter-high, heavy, iron-gray safe stood there, the door open and the inside empty.
Abis took a few steps closer and lifted the safe directly, carefully moving it out for some distance.
The mezzanine space was immediately exposed to her.
On the walls were small dark grids, with items such as ointments, incense, and herbal powders, as well as a statue of a god made of white bones.
The statue was the size of a palm, vaguely a beautiful woman, with very long hair that reached to the ankles, and the roots were clear and thick like a viper, and at the top of each hair there was an eye carved into it, which was closed or opened, densely packed.
"Respectfully, 'primordial'."
Abis bowed to the idol, picked it up with both hands, and took it into her arms.
Then, she packed up her other belongings, put the large safe back in its place, re-incorpodied, and left through the window.
After a long while, a man in a black trench coat who looked to be about thirty years old suddenly appeared in the room.
Around him, there were circles of invisible ripples.
He is the captain of the Nightnight Squad in Tingen, Dunn Smith.
As a "Dream Demon", Dunn Smith can freely enter and leave the dreams of every sleeping person throughout the city of Tingen at home or within Blackthorn Security.
He muttered as he stared in the direction of the red-haired lady who had broken into the room earlier in the direction of departure.
"Another mid-sequence witch."
"Sure enough, Leonard was right, the picture of the man in the safe was Mrs. Sharon herself, and she was indeed a member of the Witch Sect."
As he spoke, Dunn's body vanished again in circles of invisible ripples.
……
The next morning, the Fortune Tellers' Club.
Angelica, who had long brown and yellow hair elegantly coiled, put down the "Storm Villa" in her hand and greeted the red-haired lady who had just entered the door:
"Hello ma'am, would you like to do divination, or would you like to join our club?"
Abis, who wore a dark purple court dress and a black mesh hat, smiled and showed a sketch that was fairly good, "I want to ask this lady to help me with divination." ”
Angelica leaned out of the front desk, tilted her head left and right to look carefully for a moment, smiled apologetically, and replied:
"Sorry ma'am, we don't have such a soothsayer in our club."
Abis frowned.
This answer was unexpected.
After thinking about it, she changed her question, "In that case, I would like to ask the most powerful female soothsayer in your club to do a divination for me." ”
"Oh," Angelica nodded abruptly, "so you're looking for Miss Valyla Kaldwin. ”
"That portrait is quite a bit worse, and it bears only three points of resemblance to Miss Valera herself."
Abis listened to this, and remembered the name, and replied with a smile:
"Yes, I'm just looking for her divination."
Angelica smiled and shook her head, "I'm sorry, Miss Valilla said hello, she won't be coming to our club again for a while." ”
"Otherwise, I'll recommend you another good soothsayer, Lady Olinka Hayes."
"She's very good at tarot divination."
"No need." Abis grimaced and turned to leave.
