Chapter 85: Urgency

Strange, distorted, vague fluctuations flickered away, so fast that Crane almost suspected that he was hallucinating.

If he hadn't mastered inspiration well, he would have probably overlooked the anomaly at this point.

Thinking of his sister upstairs, Crane frowned, clenched his cane, and walked around the bathroom to the stairs of Wood's house.

He walked briskly up, following the inspiration's grasp of the remnants, to the door of the living room near the balcony.

It should be here...... Crane whispered, raised his hand and tapped his eyebrows twice.

One by one, the "aura" came into his eyes through the walls and wooden gates, most of which were normal in color and blurred in outline.

But there is one of them, the surface is rippling with an evil black and green, slowly eroding inward black and green.

"Sure enough, there was a problem. Crane's expression became extremely serious, and he reached out with his right hand to untie the silver chain wrapped around his left wrist.

He held the silver chain in his left hand, allowing the citrine pendant to hang naturally in front of him.

When the swing subsided, he sketched the ball of light and said silently in his heart:

"There is an extraordinary danger in the room in front of me. ”

- Normally, the "pendulum method" is only suitable for divination of things related to oneself and objective situations in a small area, so Klein's description is quite particular: "danger" will cause oneself to be affected, and "room" is in front of you.

......

"There is an extraordinary danger in the room in front of me. ”

Over and over again, after seven times, Crane opened his eyes and saw that the citrine pendant was turning clockwise, and quite fast.

This shows that there is indeed a danger caused by the extraordinary in the room, and the level of danger is not low!

Selena is a lover of the occult, and she took her friends to play a ritual that went terribly wrong?What should I do?Crane rubbed his brow, re-wrapped the citrine pendant, and reached out and knocked on the door.

Knock knock!

He knocked it three times in a rhythmic manner, a kind smile on his face.

With a creak, the door opened, and Melissa, dressed in a new dress, appeared in front of Klein's eyes.

"Klein, what's the matter?" the girl was surprised when she didn't expect her brother to come.

Klein replied with a smile that did not look a little gloomy:

"I've heard you're having a great time, and I'm a little curious. ”

"Sorry for the noise. Melissa bowed her head embarrassedly and apologized, "We're playing Magic Mirror divination, Selena knows a lot, it's fun." ”

Magic Mirror Divination...... Sister, why don't you go and play with the pen fairy and the disc fairy?" Crane shook his head angrily and amusefully.

His gaze looked beyond Melissa to the living room, where he saw Selena smiling and sunny, with deep dimples.

However, in his vision, the long, burgundy girl with the silver-plated mirror was further eroded by the evil black and green.

With his thoughts racing, Klein pondered his words and said:

"Oh, I won't bother with your game, ah yes, what about Elizabeth? I just talked to her about the grammar of the ancient Forsak, and she said she wanted to ask me a question. ”

"Elizabeth?" said Melissa, glancing her brother up and down, emphasizing in a strange tone, "She's only sixteen years old. ”

Hey, what do you think!Klein immediately explained:

"It's a normal academic discussion, Elizabeth is interested in history, in ancient languages. ”

Melissa gave her brother another deep look, and then said:

"She's inside, and I let her out. ”

"Okay. Klein stepped back and left the position of the gate.

Seeing his sister turn around, he breathed a sigh of relief that was not too kind, glad that it was not Melissa who was in danger.

He only waited for more than ten seconds, and Elizabeth, who looked confused, walked out and asked suspiciously:

"Mr. Moretti, what the hell is going on with you? I didn't say I was interested in history and ancient languages......

At this moment, her words were interrupted by Crane's serious and solemn expression, and her whole person was tense, as if she also smelled something bad.

Klein took a few diagonal steps and motioned for Elizabeth to come behind the half-hidden door.

The girl with cute baby fat on her cheeks was affected by the solemn atmosphere that suddenly descended, and she unconsciously followed.

"You know, I'm a lover of the occult. Klein stopped, turned to his body, and said bluntly.

Elizabeth replied with a gentle bow:

"Yes, I even think you're an occult expert. ”

"No, I'm just a hobbyist, but that doesn't stop me from discovering something wrong with your Magic Mirror divination. Crane said in a solemn tone.

"Something went wrong?" Elizabeth almost raised her voice, reaching out to cover her mouth.

Klein thought for a moment and said:

"I know it's hard to believe mere words, so go back to the living room and peek at the front of the mirror that she never shows you, while Selena isn't looking. ”

"How do you know she doesn't show us the front of the mirror?" Elizabeth blurted out.

According to our internal records of the Night Watchman, a similar situation occurs in more than 90% of cases involving evil "Magic Mirror Divination...... Klein smiled slightly:

"Common sense. ”

When Elizabeth, who was confused and frightened, re-entered the room, his calm and calm smile disappeared at once, and his face was full of worry:

Although they are all in the North End, it is at least a 15-minute public carriage ride from Fania Street to Zotland Street, and by the time the captain and the captain come over, I am afraid that things have deteriorated beyond control...... If only Benson and Melissa weren't here...... But I can't deal with those secret, unknown beings...... Is there a way to curb it for a while...... By the way, Selena is a lover of the occult, and there should be no shortage of items such as hydrosols, essential oils, and herbs in her room......

While Crane was trying to think of a countermeasure, Elizabeth made a random excuse to discuss something and sat down next to Selena.

"When will I meet a romantic, handsome gentleman this time for divination?" said a young girl on the other side, taking a sip of wine, blushing and plucking up courage in the eyes of everyone.

Selena coughed lightly twice, rubbed the back of the mirror seriously, and said:

"The Magic Mirror tells me, when will the gentleman in Yunina's mind appear?"

After saying it three times, she picked up the mirror and leaned in front of her.

Seizing this opportunity, Elizabeth jerked sideways and glanced at her.

As expected, she felt like she would see Selena's face in the mirror, half of her own face.

However, only Selena caught her eye.

There was only Selena in that small mirror, and Selena appeared all over her body!

It was pitch black inside the mirror, and in the center stood Selena with a cold expression!

Elizabeth shuddered, Huo Ran leaned back, leaned on the back of the sofa, and forgot to breathe for a short time.

She shuddered uncontrollably, and without making excuses, she slammed to her feet and stumbled to the door, not daring to look back at the smiling Selena.

"Yunina's gentleman will appear on the second Sunday in half a year......"

In a playful voice, Elizabeth opened the door and saw Crane, dressed in a tuxedo and wearing a half-height silk top hat, standing in the shadow of a wall lamp.

"Mr. Moretti, I, I ......," she stammered, speechless.

Crane laughed calmly:

"Don't disturb the ladies and ladies inside. ”

Infected by his smile, Elizabeth calmed down a little, reached out and pulled the door, and walked quickly to the wall lamp.

"I saw it, I saw that there was only Selena in the mirror, the demonic Selena......" she said in a low voice.

Really...... Klein was a little more solemn and asked in a deep voice:

"Do you know where Selena's bedroom is, where her occult items are?"

"Right there, and the occult items are there. Without hesitation, Elizabeth pointed diagonally to the opposite room.

Crane walked over with a cane, unscrewed the unlocked wooden door, opened the valve by the light of the street lamp outside the window and the crimson moonlight in the sky, and lit the gas lamp.

In the dim light, he swept his eyes and saw bottles of hydrosol and flower essence, boxes of herbal powder, candles, and amulets.

These items are either placed on a desk or neatly arranged in a shelf, and they are labeled with a name.

After confirming, Klein said to Elizabeth, who was following behind:

"Do you want to save Selena?"

"Yes!" Elizabeth nodded subconsciously and then asked in a daze, "Is it dangerous?"

"There's a certain danger, after all, I'm just a lover of the occult. Klein replied calmly.

"Definitely dangerous...... Elizabeth pursed her lips for a few seconds, "what do you need me to do?"

Klein smiled and gently reassured:

"Don't be nervous, you just have to pretend that nothing happened and go back to the living room, go back to Selena, and after five minutes, remember, five minutes later, under the pretext of surprising Selena, you bring her here, knock on the door, one long and two short, and then, um, I'll give it to me next. ”

Elizabeth thought about it silently, and said solemnly:

"Okay. ”

Watching her return to the living room, Crane glanced at his pocket watch, closed the door to Selena's bedroom, and quickly cleared the desk with his hands and feet, picking out the items he needed and placing them in the chair.

Immediately afterward, he picked up two candles with a faint fragrance and placed them in the upper left and upper right corners of his desk.

This is the symbol of the "Crimson Lord" and "Empress of Doom and Fear".

Klein is going to perform a ritual here, using the power of the Goddess of the Night to fight against the mysterious, unknown, and influencing existence of Selena!

Since he is only in Sequence 9, the ritual magic he has mastered is not powerful enough, and if he wants to succeed, he must have Elizabeth introduce Selena into the "Sealing Ring" and into the "Altar" range!

Therefore, it is necessary to take into account the situation that the other party perceives and resists!

Based on the above factors, Klein is ready to adopt the "interrupted" ritual magic.
