"He said he got the news from a liaison within the Ahowa County Police Department, but I can't confirm the authenticity, maybe he's covering it up?"

At No. 6 Daffodil Street in the night, Angel, dressed in a light nightdress after bathing, was sitting in front of the desk in the study, muttering with a pen, and many sentences had been written in the notebook in front of her.

"The soothsayer of Sequence 9, but the old Neil, who is skilled in divination and can also divination, has a very high opinion of him."

"There are some secrets hidden on his body, and the seal '2-049' that restricts his movement does not seem to be effective for him, or can the effect be lifted by him on his own?"

"Familiar with the 'play method', and has digested the potion of Sequence 9 in a short period of time, and plans to promote Sequence 8 in the near future."

"Know that I've been promoted to Sequence 8, the source is unknown, maybe it's divination?"

"There is some kind of information channel that can get high-level information about the kingdom that has not yet been made public."

The last line is what she just added.

Looking at these "suspicions" of neighbors, teammates and friends, Angel's face was a little hesitant, but soon his expression became calm.

She folded her hands to her forehead, rested her elbows on the table, and whispered with her eyes closed:

"O fool who does not belong to this era, you are the mysterious lord above the gray mist, and you are the king of yellow and black who rules good fortune."

"I pray for your gaze, for your hearing ......"

It's a simplified version of ritual magic, without the need to prepare four local staples in advance, or an elaborate altar of essential oils and sandalwood candles, just to recite the prayer to the "fool" in its entirety.

After successfully establishing a bond with the Fool using the full ritual magic, several members of the Tarot Order received a simplified version of the ritual from the Fool to take time off work if they were unable to attend.

"Dear Mr. Fool, I have found a 'suitable person' who may be suitable to join the Tarot Society, his name is Klein Moretti......"

Angel makes Klein a 'soothsayer' and joins the Night Watchman, who has a great talent for divination and is about to advance to the next sequence, briefly informing the Fool through prayer.

“…… Decide if you want him to join. ”

Worried that Mr. Fool did not "answer" in time, she repeated it again before slowly opening her eyes.

Also, Mr. Fool must be a busy man, how can he have time to answer prayers at any time, remember that the last time he used full ritual magic to pray, he only answered the next day.

Thinking of this, she let go of her clenched hands and was about to get up from her chair.

Suddenly, a mist formed out of thin air surrounded Angel, and in front of her eyes, an ancient high-backed chair appeared in the gray mist, on which sat the mysterious existence of the Tarot Society whose face could never be seen.

It was Mr. Fool who answered the prayer!

Angel was overjoyed, feeling the fool's gaze linger on her, and then heard a familiar low voice:

"I'll do an investigation, and until then, don't let him know about the existence of the Tarot Society."

Before she could respond, the gray mist and the hazy image in it quickly vanished without a trace, as it had come.

——————

"Good morning, Angel, hey, Klein is here too, good morning to you."

The next morning, Angel and Klein arrived on the second floor of the Black Thorn Security Company, where they were greeted by Miss Roshan's energetic greeting.

"Good morning, Roshan, is the captain in the office?"

After receiving an affirmative answer, the two looked at each other and walked towards Dunn's office.

Leaving a surprised and gossip soul burning Roshan, her face changed, as if she wanted to follow and eavesdrop, but she struggled with secrecy, and finally sat on the sofa with a broken face.

……

"Captain, I think I've mastered the 'soothsayer' potion, I think...... I would like to submit a 'Special Application' now. ”

As soon as Klein entered the door, he put on an excited expression, but mixed with a hint of solemnity and a hint of hesitation.

Dunn Smith was sitting behind the table, holding a pen and thinking about something, when he heard Klein's words, he raised his head, raised his eyebrows, and did not answer the other party, but glanced at Angel next to him.

"What about you?"

"I ......" Angel wanted to pretend to be Crane's complicated expression of excitement and hesitation, but gave up after some deliberation, "...... Me too. ”

"How are you sure, well, that you've mastered potions thoroughly? Are you more proficient in the use of extraordinary abilities, or do you just think you've reached this stage? ”

Dunn's brow furrowed, as if asking the two of them, as if asking himself.

Angel looked sideways at Klein, saw that the other party nodded, and then replied: "Captain, I feel that when I have completely mastered the potion, I have a special feeling, as if something in my mind has shattered and fused into my body, and at that moment, I knew that I had completely mastered the potion. ”

This was a pre-negotiated rhetoric between the two, and it was part of a plan to reveal the role to Dunn.

"Special Feeling ......"

Dunn was lost in thought, as if he had understood.

But isn't he already Sequence 7? Should have experienced the complete digestion of potions...... Could it be that the previous two promotions were made when the potions were not fully digested? That's too dangerous, isn't it......

Angel speculated to herself.

"Sure enough......" Dunn's brows furrowed, looking up at the two of them, "Maybe you do have the potion, but is it too early to submit an application at this time?" ”

Is he suggesting that we continue to consolidate potions, or does he think it will attract attention from within the church?

She was about to answer, but Crane had already taken the lead and said:

"I had planned to apply next year, but I had been on the night watch for two months, and I had too many things, too many coincidences, an ordinary kidnapping, and I met Antigonus Notes, and then found Rare Bieber through it; Investigate the suspect in the library, but directly encounter the target, meet the member of the Aurora Society, and divinate the follow-up clues from him......"

Klein gushed about the many events that took place in less than two months after he joined the night watch, all the "coincidences", some of which Angel had not even heard of, and it seemed that the "wonderful life" of this colleague was no less than hers.

"Listening to Neil Sr., there have been more major and extraordinary events in these two months than in the previous year. I don't know what the reason is, but I feel very uneasy and want to do my best to improve myself......"

“…… Also, I want to protect my family and my friends now. ”

Dunn was moved a little by the last sentence, and he pursed his lips, his gaze lingering on Klein for a moment, then wandering between the two of them.

After a few minutes of silence, he nodded slowly, and said in a deep voice:

"Go ahead, show me first after you write it, it's best to pass it at one time, and let the examiner bring the recipe and materials of the 'Joker' potion and directly promote it."

Angel could hear Crane beside him breathe a sigh of relief, and replied with a smile, "Okay." ”

Dunn looked at Angel again:

"You too, but I can't make sure the church has the potion recipe for the 'instigator', maybe you'll have to find something else on your own, well, as is customary, they should provide some financial support."

"I'm mentally prepared for that."

Angel replied.

Rather, she expects such a situation to occur.

Bidding farewell to Dunn, who continued to ponder, after leaving the office, the two stood still in the hallway, their eyes looking at each other with uncontrollable delight.

Convincing the captain to agree was the hardest step they had ever imagined, and they didn't expect to pass so easily.

"I'm going to go next door and draft it, huh...... The captain had to look at it first, and the telegram had to be sent by the captain...... By the way, you have to use a typewriter to type out the original manuscript. ”

Klein put away his smile and said with a straight face, but some of the preambles didn't match the afterword, and his mood was far less calm than it seemed.

"No problem, you go first, I can refer to your text later," Angel smiled slyly, "By the way, the soothsayer's sequence 8 was originally called 'Joker'?" ”

Crane's excited expression froze.
