Dorian closed the curtains, causing the office to become groggy, and sat down.

He held the crystal ball in his left hand, touched the top with his right palm, stroked it back and forth, and whispered in his mouth, as if whispering.

Gradually, the dots of light in the crystal ball became brighter and more obvious, as if the reflection of the stars was cast in the night sky.

The stars that are often used to determine the direction of destiny and the trajectory of life emerge one after another, forming a three-dimensional astrolabe, mixed with many spiritual revelations that are suspected of symbolism.

Dorian Gray finally stopped and looked at it.

"Didn't lie...... The trajectory of things is indeed like this...... She seems to be able to bring some change to the Abraham family, optimistic change...... "The light of the crystal ball faded, and Dorian stood up, already having a decision in his heart.

Lunchtime, inside the Four-winged Bird Restaurant.

In front of Furth was a fried fish sprinkled with rosemary, its skin crispy, its flesh delicious, without fine spines, quite delicious, the only problem was that the chef's aesthetic was very strange, he kept two bulging fish eyes, and relied on the plating technique to make them look up at the same time, as if to tell the unwilling to die.

...... Foirth pushed the head of the fish and cut off the tail, covering the eye facing upwards.

At this time, Dorian Gray moved his knife and fork and said casually:

"Lisa is very fond of the occult and has done some research in this area, did you see any books, notes, or objects when you finally packed up her belongings?"

"There were some notes and books. "I became a lover of the occult because of this, but unfortunately I couldn't understand some of the contents. ”

For example, the book "Spiritual Experience" is not only absurd, but also logically chaotic, and cannot reach the meaning, even if you can force yourself to read it and calm your anxiety regularly, it is difficult to remember the content in it, and you will forget it after reading it, let alone understand it...... Furth added in his mind.

Dorian bowed his head slightly, and laughed:

"Then you can ask me, I'm also a lover of occultism, the kind that is relatively proficient. ”

"Really? That's great!" said Firth in agreement.

Seeing that she was indeed interested, Dorian immediately directed the topic to the occult, sometimes mentioning the spirit world, sometimes talking about his own experience of meditation - when he entered the restaurant, he deliberately chose a remote and quiet location, not afraid that the content of the conversation between the two would be heard by the customers around him.

At the end of lunch, Dorian offered to offer:

"I didn't know how to express my gratitude, but now I don't have to worry about it, hehe, although Lawrence paid you, I don't think it's enough to match your kindness, kindness, and trustworthiness.

"Ms. Wall, you can write to me if you have any questions in the field of occultism, and this is my insignificant thanks. ”

"That's exactly what I was hoping for. Furth didn't refuse.

From the exchange she had just had, it was clear to her that Dorian Gray possessed a solid and systematic knowledge of the occult, worthy of being a member of the ancient Abrahamic family.

Although she has mastered a lot of common knowledge of the extraordinary world, it comes from a few books and notes that are not very in-depth, as well as the scattered words that she heard and experienced in various encounters at various parties, which are not comprehensive, unsystematic, and flawed.

Hearing the other party's answer, Dorian raised his glass and smiled:

"Hopefully, one day, we too will have mysterious and extraordinary abilities. ”

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

Beckland North End, St. Samuel's Church.

A group of men in black trench coats and red gloves entered the underground area, led by a man in his forties, with soft facial features and deep hair on his temples.

Wearing a pompous standard hat and carrying a straight black staff inlaid with gold, he quietly followed the night watchman leading the way, and entered a rather spacious room.

There were bookshelves in the room, and many files were placed, and a woman with a bewitching beauty in a black robe, blue eyeshadow and blush, sat leisurely in a high-backed chair, and did not get up to greet her, it was the former "psychic" Dai Li.

"Sost, all the information you need is there. Daly pointed to the table by the door.

The middle-aged man known as Sost smiled and said:

"Daly, how did you get to guard here? You should be in charge of something more important. ”

"No, it's my own idea, I need to settle down and read more information. Dai Li chuckled, "This is to better move forward, humans are fragile creatures that need a certain period of calm, and no one can always be at the top of the mountain, enjoying the excitement and pleasure all the time." ”

“...... Your style has really not changed, but unfortunately, you never gave me a chance. Thorst burst into laughter.

Dai Li shook her head seriously and said:

"Obviously, you don't know me, my hobby is more curious now, and if you can turn yourself into a rotting corpse, or expose Bai Sensen's bones, then I'll be interested in you. ”

She turned to look at one of the "Red Gloves" standing behind Sost: "Leonard, how did you choose to join his team?" This guy is arrogant and arrogant and has no guts, always fantasizing that the lady he likes will take the initiative to lie down on the bed and wait for him, and frankly, maybe this is the characteristic of 'nightmares'?"

Speaking of the nightmare, Daly paused visibly.

Leonard reluctantly responded:

"Ms. Dali, this is Your Excellency Sesima's arrangement. ”

"That's right...... I can see you agree with me about Sost. Daly said with a slightly hoarse voice.

...... Leonard didn't know how to explain it for a moment.

Fortunately, the "Requiem" Sost didn't care about Dali's statement, so he walked to the table full of materials, picked up a file and looked through it, and Leonard and others immediately surrounded him, imitating his own deacon.

In the long sound of the paper turning, Sost asked casually:

"What's new in Beckland lately? ”

Dai Li's eyes moved slightly, and she thought for a while:

"Several of the extraordinary people we have worked with have passed on the news that many people have been looking for an organization that believes in the 'Fool' recently, and have given them the corresponding honorific names......"

After describing the honorific name of "The Fool" in Rune, she chuckled and said:

"I seem to have seen the birth of a new cult, perhaps the embodiment of an old friend, of course.

"Sost, what do you think?"

Sost thought for a moment and said:

"No, I've never heard of anything like it. ”

At this moment, Leonard raised his head from the file and said in a deep voice:

"Could this have something to do with the two tarot ceremonies we're tracking?

"'Fool' is the beginning of the tarot card, and it is the most important main card!"

Dai Li was stunned for a second, then nodded thoughtfully:

"That's an interesting idea......

But there is no evidence for this, it is pure speculation, not even reasoning. Sost said disapprovingly.

Leonard smiled and said:

"Russell the Great said, make bold assumptions, and be careful to verify. ”

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

Hilston District, Cragg Club.

As soon as Klein, who had left the Harvest Chapel and had gone straight to the place, he saw the equestrian teacher Talim Dumont sitting in a secluded place, not knowing what to think.

Seeing that he would have to wait a while for lunch, Klein leaned over and said hello with a smile:

"Good afternoon, Talim, you seem to have another problem?"

Talim woke up suddenly, and quickly shook his head and said:

"No, no. ”

Klein muttered, sat down, and smiled:

"It's a pity Alan and Mike weren't there, otherwise we would have had another nice afternoon. ”

Talim then smiled:

"They're all busy and have very little to spare. ”

Without waiting for Klein to speak, he looked around and said:

"Sherlock, a big man is interested in you after hearing me mention your deeds, and wants to meet you, would you like to?

"Frankly, it's something I envy, it's a very rare opportunity. ”

Wait, what can I do? Help Mrs. Mary catch the adulterer, accompany Mike to the brothel with the reporter, and even if I go to the East End a few times, I don't do anything extraordinary...... At best, you know that I have contributed to the serial murder case and helped Dr. Allen solve the nightmare problem by providing consultation...... Klein was confused.

After two seconds, he suddenly understood why.

It must have been that big guy who asked Talim if he knew any good detectives, and he could only think of me, so he took the initiative to help me add some descriptions that sounded very powerful, such as the real solver behind the scenes, the real solver behind the scenes, and the case of Mrs. Mary's ex-husband and sympathetic wife transferring the property of Coim's company, the big detective with strong action, keen sense of smell, and accurate shots...... This is business blowing each other...... Klein sighed secretly.

He pondered the following words:

"Tallim, I'm sorry, as a detective, I have my own rule, which is to try not to mix things involving big people, maybe just a small sneeze friction on the upper stage is likely to bring me unbearable disaster.

"I'm not going to label myself, so I'm not going to meet the big guy. ”

This is actually a precaution that Klein thought before he became a detective.

Once he is involved in high society, it is easy to be investigated, and he doesn't want to take such a risk before he becomes a "faceless person".

“...... You're sane. Talim groaned, "The big man expected this reaction and thought that such a detective was more trustworthy, so he wanted you to take a commission that would not involve high society." ”

"What commission?" Klein asked.

Talim laughed:

"It's the Gapin incident that you and Mike discussed last time, and the big guy is very interested in the organization that uses tarot cards as symbols, and he said that there is more than one similar case, and he wants you to find the corresponding clues. ”
