Inside the luxury villa of the Hall family in Beckland, Queens.

Audrey had just tried out the three evening dresses she had chosen for the day, and was sitting on an upholstered chair thinking about what accessories to wear with each of them, which plan she preferred, and what her mother's opinion would be.

At this moment, an endless gray mist and a blurred figure looking down on everything from above suddenly appeared in front of her.

Immediately afterward, she saw another figure—a prayer figure shrouded in gray mist, and the corresponding words echoed in her ears.

In this regard, Audrey was not surprised, because there was no tarot gathering today, and her heart was slightly uneasy and worried.

Well, Mr. "World" really has psychological problems, he must have been under a lot of pressure recently, no wonder he had to make an appointment before...... Audrey sighed for a moment, and then thought about when she was free.

In her deep groan, her gaze swept over the busy maids in the room, and swept over Susie, the big golden retriever dog squatting in the doorway.

The corners of Audrey's mouth turned up a little uncontrollably, lowered her head, and answered with a covert prayer:

“...... Tell me Mr. 'World' that I have been free lately, and that he will determine the time and place, well, not more than a few towns west of Beckland, as long as it is not at night......"

At this time, Susie, the golden retriever dog who was observing the maids' work, seemed to feel an inexplicable gaze, and turned her head suspiciously to look at Audrey's location, but did not find any problems.

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

Above the gray mist, inside the palace like the abode of giants.

Always available...... A time period that is convenient for going out...... Locations that don't move far from familiar areas...... Crane rubbed his forehead and deciphered Miss Justice's answer.

His first reaction was that it would be best for the other party to determine the location today or tomorrow, and then use the "wriggling hunger" to directly "teleport" to the past, but he immediately thought of a question:

That is, Dawn Dantès is in the scope of the "night watchman" investigation, and it is likely that he is being monitored, and it is very easy to expose the problem by "traveling" rashly.

Wait a few days, or ...... Klein thought about it for a moment, and asked the embodied "world" Gelman Sparrow to pray again:

“...... Please tell Miss Justice, today, above the gray fog. ”

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

Audrey's eyes widened, and she felt that Mr. "World" had given her more than she had expected.

This also makes her find Susie as a stand-in!

Moreover, in the palace of Mr. "Fool", there are many details that I cannot see clearly or feel, which is seriously lacking in conditions for the treatment of psychological problems...... Audrey calmed down her surprise and raised her doubts from the point of view of feasibility, asking Mr. "Fool" to convey them to "the world".

It didn't take long for her to get another reply:

“...... I will ask Mr. 'Fool' to lift this restriction and use another method to disguise the true appearance of both sides......"

Is this the special treatment of Mr. "Fool"? Well, our continuous communication is equivalent to direct communication, which is too troublesome for Mr. "Fool", and he is almost conniving...... Audrey's mind turned, and she didn't look for a reason:

“...... Ok, ...... between 11.30pm and 12.30pm today."

She doesn't think she'll have room for herself until the birthday ball is over.

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

At the same time, inside the house at 39 Berklund Street.

Hazel looked boredly at the evening dress she had picked out, listening to her mother's repeated admonitions.

She was going to accompany her father and mother to Miss Audrey Hall's birthday ball tonight.

Just as Hazel's thoughts drifted away and her mind went blank, she saw a gray-white mouse appear in the doorway, waving its paws a little anxiously.

This...... Hazel listened patiently to her mother's story, made an excuse, and went straight back to the bedroom.

When she closed and locked the door of the house, the gray-white mouse sprang out of nowhere, came to her feet, and squatted down very comically:

"I noticed something was wrong around the neighborhood!"

This rat shook the air and spat out!

Hazel was not surprised by this, and asked in confusion:

"What's wrong?"

The gray-white mouse raised his right front paw, pointed out the window, and said:

"There's an extraordinary person from the Church of the Night scouting this neighborhood, and it's pretty high-spec. ”

"What are they looking for?" said Hazel with a slight frown.

The gray-white mouse took a slow breath and said:

"How do I know? But it's definitely a very serious matter.

That way, they're likely to find out about your problem. ”

Hazel asked, a little worried and a little puzzled:

"How did they find out? Didn't the clues in the sewers have been blown up? Haven't the corresponding problems been dealt with?"

The gray-white mouse didn't know what to say for a moment, and only after a few seconds did he vaguely respond:

"There are a number of strange but useful investigative methods of the official extraordinary...... Anyway, I'm going to deal with your dreams, which are the most exposed places. ”

Hazel looked down at the rat on the ground, his brow furrowed a little and then stretched out:

"Okay. ”

Don't look reluctant, I've managed to regain a little strength, and now it's a waste again! Is this neighborhood cursed? First came a witch in a very strange state, then there was a "grand thief" Black Emperor, and now there was an inexplicable thing that made the "Night Watchman" pay so much attention! The gray-white mouse squeaked twice in annoyance.

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

At 7:30 p.m., Hazel accompanied his father, Councillor Macht, and his mother, Mrs. Liana, to Queens and entered the house of Earl Hall.

Because it was a birthday ball, she did not meet Miss Audrey Hall directly, but quietly listened to her parents and the greetings between Earl Hall, Mrs. Caitlin, Lord Hibbert Hall, and others.

In her eyes, these noble nobles and commoners are essentially the same, so they do not behave particularly restrained, and their behavior and words are quite generous.

If it weren't for her mother, Madame Liana, who had emphasized it over and over again, Hazel would have considered the villa's magnificent dance floor, artistic frescoes, and elegant statues more worthy of respect.

Smiling and greeting people she didn't know, Hazel finally waited for the ball to begin, and saw the protagonist of the night, Miss Audrey Hall, holding the Count and the Countess by the arm, out of the second-floor room and onto the railing facing the dance floor.

As soon as Hazel's gaze swept away, she habitually skipped the other person's face and examined her dress style and accessories.

However, she could not take her eyes off, and on the huge crystal chandelier hanging high, the light of whale oil candles shone on Audrey, who had just turned 18, with dreamy colors, making her emerald eyes, pure and indescribable face, and long hair as if she were shining like gold, making the evening dress and various accessories lose their color.

Hazel was in a trance for a moment, unable to hear what Count Hall was saying, until the melodious melody was played, and Audrey Hall and her Count's father danced the opening dance.

She had always been proud, but suddenly felt a little inferior, thinking that such a dazzling young lady would not be inferior to herself even if she did not have supernatural powers.

Hazel pursed her lips and glanced left and right, and found that everyone's eyes were involuntarily attracted, but they felt differently.

Call...... Hazel exhaled inexplicably.

At the dance that night, she didn't act so arrogant anymore, but every minute she wanted to get out of here, return home, and get busy with her own business to gain more magical and powerful power.

Finally, as the ball came to an end, the Hazel family said goodbye to their hosts and walked to the door.

As she was leaving, Hazel couldn't help but glance back, only to see Miss Audrey standing on the edge of the dance floor, greeting the guests as they prepared to leave, with a faint and beautiful smile.

She still seemed to be directly below the light.

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

After the birthday ball, Audrey removes her accessories, puts on a nightdress, and enters the bathroom.

Looking at the white mist of the water and the bathrobe placed next to her, Audrey did not rush to take a bath, but sat down next to her and prayed to Mr. "Fool" to indicate that she was ready.

After ten or so seconds, she saw a tide of crimson light pouring out, drowning herself.

Above the gray mist, Audrey appeared on the side of the bronze table.

This time, she didn't see Mr. "Fool" shrouded in gray mist, only an old "confessional" on the side—a large brown box half a man high, with a door in the front and back, and a wooden partition in the middle.

I thought that Mr. "World" would ask Mr. "Fool" to embody a wall, and he and I were on both sides, each leaning against the wall...... Now the essence is the same, but the confessional is small and dark, and he really doesn't think about the lady's feelings at all! Well, if Mr. "World" thinks about it, I will be surprised...... With a slight smile, Audrey walked to the door of the "confessional" that had not yet been closed, bent down and slipped in, and sat on her knees.

Closing the wooden door, Audrey, who was treating a patient for the first time in the real sense, suddenly became a little excited.

Surrounded by darkness, she let go of many rules she usually obeyed due to the environment and emotions, raised the corners of her mouth slightly, flexed her fingers, and tapped the wooden board of the partition and said:

"Hey~ Is Mr. 'World' here?"

Klein, who was sitting across from him, was infected by Miss "Justice's cheerful tone", and said with a slight relaxation:

"You can get started. ”

This time, instead of covering himself with gray fog, he took on the form of Gelman Sparrow.

Indeed, Mr. "World" is not in a very good mental state, too tense and too anxious...... Audrey sensed first, and then used the "reassurance" of the "psychiatrist".

The soft invisible fluctuations spread, and Klein suddenly felt like he was getting up early in the hot summer and blowing the cool wind in the early morning, and the heat and turmoil in his heart suddenly disappeared.

Seeing that Mr. "World" had obviously recovered, Audrey secretly breathed a sigh of relief and asked softly:

"Have you had any nightmares lately?"
