Part 2 Faceless Man Chapter 162: The Troublesome Operations of the “Evil God”
”1,2,3,4,5 …… It seems to have the appearance of twelve pairs of wings …… According to the descriptions of the major church canons, this is the highest order of angels…” Voorhees tried to recall the image he saw while half asleep, and then he was half awake. … “Forsyth tried to recall the images he saw in his half-awake sleep, shocked and not so shocked, as if he had encountered a shocking thing that he had taken for granted but had never been able to encounter before.
”That Mr. “Fool” was attended by angels was not surprising, judging from the fact that Miss Justice and Mr. Hangman occasionally used the “k” in place of the “k”. It is not surprising that Mr. “Fool” has an angel in his service, as can be imagined from the fact that Ms. “Justice” and Mr. “Hanged Man” occasionally use “k” to refer to Mr. “Fool”, and from the fact that Mr. “k” is able to isolate himself from the effects of the full moon’s ravings, it can be inferred from the fact that Mr. “Fool” has an angel in his service, as can be expected. Or is this a routine operation for k?
Erm, one more question, why are the feathers on the angel’s wings black? Does it mean fall or death? “What is Mr. Fool’s true identity? What great being is he? The “God of Death” who was rumored to have fallen in the “Pale Years”, and who was going to resurrect himself through the Tarot Gathering? Forsyth suddenly took a breath and stopped worrying that Mr. Lawrence would find something wrong with her through divination.
She thought about the fact that she had joined the Tarot Gathering, smiled bitterly, and whispered wordlessly:
”One can only take one step and see what happens, as Rossel the Great said ……”
Collecting her thoughts, Voorhees once again humbly thanked Mr. “Fool”, and then followed the normal procedure of the ceremony, extinguishing the flames of the three candles and disposing of the altar filled with various items.
……
Above the gray mist, Klein temporarily put the matter of the Abrahams family to the back of his mind.
According to the original plan, he materialized a pen and paper and wrote down a divination statement:
”Daisy’s current situation.”
Putting the pen away, Klein folded Daisy’s word book and the paper with the divination statement on it together and held it in his left hand.
Then he leaned back in his chair and entered a meditative state while reciting “Daisy’s current situation” over and over again.
After seven times, Klein fell asleep, his eyes first black and red, and then gray.
Images flashed, some coherent, some jumpy, some illogical.
Klein saw the youngest daughter of Liv, the washerwoman, the thirteen or fourteen year old girl who had been repeatedly burned by the steam but insisted on ironing her clothes, being dragged by force into the fork of an isolated alleyway by a man in a heavy jacket and a gray and black cap, who had covered her mouth with a handkerchief from behind.
Another man dressed in the same way took hold of her legs and lifted her up with his companion, walking as fast as he could.
The target of their forward movement was the carriage parked outside the alley.
The whole process was over in less than two minutes, and by the time Daisy’s sister Freya returned to look for the place, the carriage had already driven off.
……
In the middle of the carriage, a muddled Daisy had a cold, sharp dagger pressed against her face and dirty, threatening words in her ears.
……
The carriage drove into the luxurious villa of Capin.
……
Daisy was in a small, dark room, where female cries, screams, and curses echoed from time to time.
……
Daisy came to her senses and cried out for help, only to be kicked through the door and kicked over in pain.
She was in tears and whispering words like “Mommy” and “Freya”.
……
Klein opened his eyes and realized that the paper he held in his left palm had somehow crumpled into a tight ball.
He was already sure that Capin was the one leading the many cases of missing teenage girls, sure that he was the boss of a crime syndicate.
But the problem was that this kind of case shouldn’t and couldn’t involve too much extraordinary power, at most a few money-hungry Sequence 7s or Sequence 8s or 9s helping out wouldn’t make Klein feel a strong danger through his spiritual intuition just as he approached the villa.
Could it be that Karpin himself was a Sequence 6, or even Sequence 5 Extraordinary? But this level of extraordinary person want to make money is not difficult, there is no need to do this kind of dirty and cumbersome things, directly to the various gangs to find, one by one to collect protection money, are easier than this simple and easy, but also will not dirty their hands …… Could it be that Kapin trafficking in human beings this thing also hides what plans? Klein pondered while using the power of the gray mist to restore Daisy’s word book to a flat and neat appearance.
After a few seconds of silence, he materialized a piece of parchment again and wrote down a new divination statement:
”Saving Daisy is dangerous business.”
After reading it carefully twice, Krynn removed the spirit pendulum from his left wrist and let the citrine pendant dangle down onto the paper, near enough to touch the line of words.
After a few seconds of calm and quiet, he closed his eyes and silently recited the divination statement he had just written.
When the sound stopped, Klein opened his eyes and looked at the spirit pendulum held in his left hand.
The citrine pendant was making a clockwise rotation, quite fast and large!
This signaled certainty, indicating that saving Daisy was a rather risky endeavor!
But it wasn’t all hopeless, there was still a possibility, a chance, if only it could be grasped …… Klein interpreted the revelation given by the “Pendulum Method”.
He leaned back, closed his eyes and smiled to himself:
”Isn’t it looking for the opportunity to perform on your own initiative?
”This is!
”As a magician, one must challenge a little bit of difficult things after all, otherwise one should be called a master juggler, not a magician.
”Accomplishing the seemingly impossible, even if the result is false, this is the image of a magician in my heart, as to whether it is one of the codes, to be confirmed ……”
Klein tapped his fingers on the edge of the long ancient table and made a quick decision.
Saving Daisy and dealing with the matter of Karpin was the most difficult thing for him at the moment, completely not knowing the other party, not knowing how many extraordinary people were inside that villa, which pathway and which sequence they belonged to.
This makes it impossible for Klein to make targeted preparations.
For the “magician”, the first rule is, “do not do unprepared performance”!
–Many seemingly impromptu performances actually have some preparation, such as long-time practice, for example, in-depth mastery of distraction.
”In the name of the Favored Ones, ask Miss ‘Justice’ to help inquire about Karpin’s background?” Klein seriously considered a solution to the problem.
But then he quickly dismissed the thought:
”No, this won’t get detailed information, although Kapin is a rich man who is involved with many big shots, but he is never able to get on the stage, Miss ‘Justice’ can at most find out which nobles, which parliamentarians and which government employees he is very close to, but she won’t be able to figure out how many Extraordinary Ones are in his villa, what traps have been set up, and what the layout is like. What kind of traps, how the pattern is ……
”Following these connections these clues, Ms. ‘Justice’ might be able to inquire about what I want to know in a few weeks, but it’s too slow, saving lives is like putting out fires, one delay and a tragedy can happen.”
Klein’s gaze swept across the surface of the long bronze table, over the corners where the clutter was piled, and ideas were gradually taking shape in his mind:
”On the one hand, let Ms. ‘Magician’ and her friend Ms. Hugh investigate Kapin’s background, figure out which extraordinary people he is involved with, they have good connections in the East District, in many gangs, and in quite a few circles of extraordinary people, and on the other hand, I’ll take matters into my own hands, and get what I want from the servants or bodyguards who come out of Kapin’s villa. servants or bodyguards to get the desired information, using the ‘psychic’ method.”
Having finalized his plan, Klein didn’t rush to ask Miss Magician to help him, and decided to try it himself first, so that he could target her to find out certain things.
In an instant, his figure disappeared into the majestic palace above the gray mist.
……
After lunch, a man wearing a gray and black duck-tongued hat and a thick cotton jacket carefully left the back door of Villa Karpin, making his way to the intersection and getting into a rental carriage.
”East End.” He touched the dark red birthmark on his face and instructed the carriage driver.
As the carriage began to move, the man looked out the window in boredom, admiring the beautifully dressed ladies and young ladies on the street.
”If only I could kidnap them ……” the man floated around with a regretful expression.
After moving away from Iris Street, he suddenly shivered and his eyes became slightly demented.
He knocked on the wall of the compartment and said to the coachman:
”Stop, stop! I forgot a thing, and here it is.”
The coachman dared not rebuke the fierce man, and without even muttering stopped the carriage in the street and allowed him to alight.
After paying the 6p fare, the man backed up a few dozen meters and entered a cheap inn.
No identification was required, and he paid for a room.
Once inside, he simply closed the door without locking it.
Immediately, the man sat on the edge of the bed with an expressionless face, and a transparent and illusory figure suddenly separated from his body!
This was none other than Klein, who was dressed as a laborer!
He had summoned himself as a spirit and attached himself to the man, allowing him to walk to a convenient place for the “psychic”!
After knocking out the man, the spirit Klein disappeared into the room, and not long after, the door was pushed open, and he re-entered in flesh and blood.
Sealing off the place with a wall of spirituality, Kraven quickly set up a “psychic” ritual, letting the “Amanda” pure dew, “Spirit’s Eye” potion ethereal and enchanting smells waft around the surroundings.
After making the preparations, he was about to start the “séance” when he suddenly eeped and stopped.
He realized that the spirit body of the man unconscious on the bed was subject to mysterious and unknown restrictions, if he forced himself to “psychic”, although the probability of success, but it will touch the seal, so that a certain extraordinary person will be aware of it!
This will alert the snake!
Very strange extraordinary ability …… very cautious, very careful …… Capin involved in the matter is really not simple ah …… Klein paced a few steps, his eyebrows slightly wrinkled.
He glanced at the unconscious man and suddenly gave a heave:
”You think that’s going to be hard for me?”
He quickly interrupted the psychic ritual and once again summoned himself and responded to himself.
A few seconds later, the spirit form flew out of the candlelight and floated around the room once more.
Without any hesitation, the psychic Klein surged forward and possessed the unconscious man.
The man rolled over and sat up with a start, opening his eyes with a rather dazed expression.
He stood up straight and took a step to the front of the altar, then chanted in a low voice:
”O fool who does not belong to this age;”
”You are the mysterious lord above the gray mist;”
”You are the Yellow and Black King who reigns over good fortune.”
