Part 2 the faceless man chapter 32 confirmation
At 15 Minsk Street, back at home, Klein didn’t rush off to Divination Above the Gray Mist, pretending that nothing had happened as he looked at the newspaper.
In the process, he heard an illusory cascade of supplications, which he vaguely recognized as coming from the Lady.
After the ravages of the ravings of the “real Creator”, I seem to have improved my ability in this area a little …… Klein thoughtfully flipped the newspaper, and steadily half-sitting, half-reclining in the easy chair did not move.
It was not until the hands of his pocket watch approached ten o’clock that he put down what he was holding and went to the second-floor lavatory to clean himself up.
Entering the bedroom and drawing the curtains, Klein skillfully came to the gray fog, and saw the crimson star symbolizing “justice” expanding and contracting, and bringing up the echo of a prayer.
Klein spread out the spirit, contact and immediately appeared in front of the light white silk nightgown “justice” lady.
Her image was still blurry, and she seemed to be lying on the bed.
After chanting her name, Audrey cut to the chase:
”Ambassador Beckland is a ‘Hunter’ pathway serial 6 ‘conspirator’ with a suspected serial 5 assistant …… ”
”After I got the detailed information, I got someone to question Mr. A. He agreed to take over the task of assassinating Ambassador Beckrand, but on the condition of 10,000 gold pounds, or the ‘Dark One’ or the ‘Disaster Officiant’, ‘Prophet’ and ‘Manipulator’ one of the magic potion formulas, which doesn’t need to be complete, just a part of it.”
”I chose the former, paying 2000 pounds in advance, honorable Mr. ‘Fool’, did I make the right decision?”
10,000 gold pounds …… Klein’s mouth moved for a moment, then he forced himself to turn his thoughts in another direction:
Sequence 5’s assistant, should be that “soothsayer” path of the infiltrator, right?
First of all, take it as a yes, expect the enemy from the leniency ……
Does Mr. A have the ability to do that, and does he get paid not to do it ……
”Disaster Priest”, “Seer”, “Manipulator” and “No Dark One” are all part of the sequence. 4, which is the threshold for a high sequence. ……
Mr. A is most likely one of the 22 Divine Ambassadors of the Aurora Society. To be stationed in Bekrand, the capital of all the capitals, means that his status is second only to the top five saints, and he is the best among the Divine Ambassadors. ……
The “Aurora Society” holds the “Secret Prayer Man” pathway, which is a direct path to the “True Creator”, and as a divine messenger, he is most likely an extraordinary person in this sequence chain, based on his position in Birkeland. Based on Beckland’s position, we can initially judge that he has Sequence 5, and that he is a “Shepherd”, of course, he may also be a lower “Bishop of the Roses”, but in other aspects, such as his mind, he is even more outstanding… …
Miss Justice must be warned not to have too much contact with Mr. A. The extraordinary people of the “Secret Prayer Man” pathway are either madmen who have already demonstrated their abnormality, or madmen who are very well hidden, with few exceptions… …The Sequence 8 “Listeners” of this pathway often hear the voice of the “True Creator”… ……
Well, only a madman would be bold enough to take on the task of assassinating Ambassador Intis and have the courage to do it ……
I have a partial recipe for the “No Dark One” potion and the corresponding ritual, which could save Ms. Justice 10,000 gold pounds. ……
Why does Mr. A. only want the recipes for the Dark One, the Disaster Priest, the Seer and the Manipulator? Why do you only need the recipes for Darknessless, Catastrophe, Seer and Manipulator? Is this a path that can be exchanged with the “Secret Prayer Man” pathway in the High Sequence? That’s a lot of paths. There are five of them. ……
”The Dark One is the Eternal Sun’s, and the Disaster Priestess sounds like the Storm Lord or the Goddess of the Night. …… I’ve previously judged the paths of the Eternal Sun, Storm Lord, and the God of Knowledge and Wisdom to be similar. The God of Knowledge and Wisdom, each of their paths belongs to a similar sequence, so the K’s are hostile to each other, so it seems that the “Disaster Priest” belongs to the Lord of Storms, which is the sequence 4 of the “Sailor” path, and the “Seer” is the sequence 4 of the “Knowledge and Wisdom” path. “Seer” is the God of Knowledge and Wisdom. ……
Which path is the “Manipulator”?
It’s interesting that they’re all interchangeable with their “True Creator” counterparts ……
Well, …… can’t give Mr. A the formula for “No Dark One”, not even partially. The members of the Aurora Society are the kind of crazy people who are always looking for a chance to take revenge on the world and jeopardize public safety, so you can’t trade strategic things to them… …It’s not just about the bottom line, it’s also about their own safety. Those lunatics in the Aurora Club could really sacrifice an entire city when the time comes. ……
Let Ms. Justice spend the 10,000 pounds, which is her scheduled payout to my dependents, and I can compensate her with knowledge for the rest …… Klein reached up and pinched his cheek.
He didn’t respond to “justice” for the moment, but instead manifested a pen and paper and prepared for divination.
Maric’s friend, Klein had no knowledge at all, and could only judge from the pronoun “she” that she was a woman, so if he wanted to directly divine whether or not the other party was reliable, failure would be the inevitable result.
However, Klein can indirectly divine, with his own safety indirect divination, so the success rate will be much higher.
As for whether it would be interfered with and how accurate the results would be, because of the gray fog’s barrier, he wasn’t worried at all.
After deliberating for more than ten seconds, Klein put pen to paper and wrote:
”It’s risky for me to hire that friend of Maric’s as a bodyguard for three days.”
Putting the pen down and unclasping the spirit pendulum, Klein gathered his spirit and quickly did the divination.
When he opened his eyes, he saw the citrine pendant spinning clockwise, though minimally and slowly.
There was some risk, but it was fairly low …… reliable …… Klein nodded gently and switched to divining Mr. A instead.
Again, he had no direct contact with Mr. A. All his understanding was based on paraphrase and inference, and it was difficult to get an answer to confirm whether he was capable and willing to keep his word, so he could only start from another aspect, indirect divination.
As an excellent “soothsayer”, Klein quickly determined the direction, that is, divination Beckland ambassador!
This ambassador had quite a lot of involvement with him, and the corresponding information was even more detailed, even what the other party was involved in, Klein also knew very well, so there was no problem to use it as a divination target.
After thinking for a while, Klein wrote:
”Beclan Jean Madan will be under a deadly threat from Mr. A.”
In this divination with little certainty, he tried to blur the statement as much as possible, not presupposing a definite result, lest he fail.
This time, Klein saw that the pendulum was still doing a clockwise rotation, but it became faster and wider.
It meant that Mr. A would go through with the task, and there was a good chance of success……. Klein exhaled slowly and began to answer Ms. Justice’s prayers:
”Yes.”
”No problem with your decision.”
”Definitely don’t go out on your own.”
”My favored one would like a thousand pounds for the event, the same way as before, preferably by tomorrow.”
”This will offset the formula for the ‘Praying Light Man’ and you won’t need to gather any more information on the Mithraic Order, but I will trade with you if you can additionally obtain the appropriate information.”
After realizing that the infiltrator was an extraordinary person from the “Diviner” pathway, Klein’s need for information about the Cistercians was less urgent.
Originally, he wanted more than 1,000 pounds, but considering that Ms. Justice would have to pay 10,000 pounds for the assassination of the ambassador, her financial situation would surely be stretched, so she could only give the bottom line.
After all this, Klein did not stay long, immediately returned to the real world.
……
Audrey was holding a sheet of music, humming the melody lightly as the red moon loomed outside the window.
Suddenly, a thick gray fog appeared in front of her eyes, and there was a figure perched on an ancient chair, looking down and speaking in a low voice.
After hearing the response of Mr. “Fool”, Audrey was relieved and no longer so apprehensive.
1000 pounds …… My debt to Mr. Fool is nearly paid off …… I feel so much more relaxed… …Audrey thought as she rested the sheet music against her chest, dimples appearing.
Although her pocket money for a long time afterward was only 1,000 pounds per month, which was very embarrassing, but biting her teeth, squeezing a 1,000 pounds out was still no problem.
Borrow a little more from Grelint, the number of installments is more …… Audrey has a good tutor in this regard, after all, her father is the big banker behind the scenes.
……
At noon on Thursday, Klein heard another illusory prayer, and it was confirmed that Ms. Justice had deposited the money into the anonymous account.
The reconciliation and clearing of the bank accounts within Birkeland was completed on the same day, which meant that Klein could withdraw the cash from every Birkeland bank branch in the city from Friday onwards.
After lunch, Klein met Mary Gale once again, and she led him outside the Kraig Club, where two members were waiting.
One was Alan Krebs, a well-known surgeon, and the other was Talim Dumont, the nobleman’s equestrian teacher.
After greeting each other, Allen, a tall, thin, more aloof surgeon wearing gold-rimmed glasses, entered the club first, while Talim, an equestrian teacher with short, curly brown hair, laughed as he walked:
”If Mary hadn’t mentioned you, I wouldn’t have known that Bakerland had an additional excellent detective, and I’ll be looking for you in the future if there’s anything I need to delegate.”
”Then I thank you here in advance.” Klein responded with a smile.
According to Mary’s introduction in the car, he knew that Talim was originally a nobleman’s son, with an ancestor who had the title of Viscount, but unfortunately, all of his family’s wealth was squandered by his grandfather, and for that reason, his father had nearly ten brothers, as well as more than six sisters, and as a landed aristocrat, the hereditary title was lowered when the land owned fell below the standard line, but it also depended on the king’s mood.
Talim can not like other noble children, in adulthood to get a considerable amount of money in business, also due to the reputation of the grandfather, there is no channel to enter the government as an employee, or go to other noble families as a steward, but can only play to the strengths of a number of noblemen in the equestrian teacher, the income is still generous, four hundred pounds a year up and down.
”Alas, divorce is a poor thing.” Talim didn’t know whether he was alluding to what happened to Mary Gale or thinking of his grandfather who was more of an Intis.
Crane couldn’t pick up on it, so he had to follow the other man into the Cragg Club and saw a large, brightly lit hall.
