Chapter One Hundred Twenty-FourWrapping Up Hidden in the shadow of a building dozens of meters away, Klein kept staring toward the target house concealed in darkness. He vaguely heard a violent rush of wind and clearly distinguished the bang, bang, bang of gunshots. “If the enemy flees toward where I am, should I draw my gun and put on an act, or pretend I never saw anything?” His body trembled slightly. Sweat seeped from his palms as that thought crossed his mind. A Beyonder capable of…-

Chapter One Hundred Twenty-ThreeBeyonder Battle Beyond the glass window, vines grew wild in the garden, ruined and gloomy. The river flowed darkly in silence, reflecting flecks of starlight. Nearby houses, by contrast, shone with warm, cozy radiance. Everything was quiet to the extreme, as though welcoming the arrival of night. Tris, whose features were not particularly exquisite when taken separately, yet combined into a startling beauty, withdrew her gaze and quickly walked to the coat rack.…

Chapter One Hundred Twenty-TwoThe Target Building Number 2, Daffodil Street. Inside the living room dyed in the colors of dusk. With his back to the oriel window, Klein addressed Frye and Leonard. “I obtained a result from the divination. In the dream, I saw a two-story grayish-blue house. Every window on the first floor was shut tight and covered with curtains. Within several meters around it, the soil was dark brown. Not a single blade of grass grew there, and not a single flower was planted.…

Chapter One Hundred Twenty-OneLeonard’s “Guess” Hearing Klein and Frye’s conjecture, Leonard tugged at the collar of his shirt and paced back and forth several times. “Then we would have to investigate everyone Sols came into contact with inside the workhouse, as well as every person he met after going bankrupt and being driven from his home. That will be very troublesome… For now, let us hurry and do a quick check here separately, then head straight to the third death incident in the…

Chapter One Hundred TwentyThe Workhouse “Extraordinary factors exist…” Klein’s eyes returned to normal. He turned his head and looked toward Leonard and Frye. Leonard suddenly laughed. “Very professional. Worthy of a Seer.” You sound as if you are hinting at something… Klein muttered soundlessly. Frye opened his suitcase and took out a silver knife and other objects. After pausing for a few seconds, he said, “The corpse tells me that she truly died from sudden heart…

Chapter One Hundred NineteenThe Real Lower Street Tingen City, Number 2, Daffodil Street. Having left behind a note, Klein locked the front door and hurried toward Leonard Mitchell, who waited by the roadside. Leonard’s black short hair was a little longer than it had been last month, and because he neglected to care for it, it looked extremely messy. Yet even like this, paired with his decent looks, emerald-green eyes, and poet-like temperament, it still carried a kind of alternative…

Chapter One Hundred EighteenAugust Time flowed peacefully onward. Tingen saw off the tail end of summer and entered mid-August, the temperature holding steady at twenty-six or twenty-seven degrees Celsius. Splash! Klein abruptly stood up from the bathtub and stepped out, scattering droplets of water over the floor. He stood there naked, lowering his head to look at his own abdomen. With a slight exertion, clear lines of muscle appeared. This was the result of the training he had persisted in…

Chapter One Hundred SeventeenContact “Daxter Guderian. A doctor at Greenhull Asylum…” Klein silently repeated Detective Henry’s words, beginning to consider how he should approach this doctor who was suspected to be a Spectator and possibly a member of the Psychology Alchemists. In this matter, he did not wish to take too great a risk. He did not wish to let the Nighthawks discover something was wrong with him, nor did he wish to lose his current life over intelligence and resources that…

Chapter One Hundred SixteenLanevus’s Child Christina did not notice the diviner’s momentary blankness. She glanced toward the reception desk where Angelica stood, lowered her voice, and said, “I mean Lanevus’s child.” She pointed toward the young woman beside her, the one wearing a lotus-leaf hat. “This is my niece, Megose. Her mother is my elder sister. I am deeply regretful and terribly sorry. Back then, I truly believed Lanevus was an outstanding, remarkable young man, and so I…

Chapter One Hundred FifteenThe Fraudster “Without my permission, my name must not be spoken.” … Even several minutes after the gathering ended, even after Audrey and Alger had returned to their own bedroom and captain’s cabin, the Fool’s words still seemed to echo beside their ears. In their impression, the mysterious and powerful Mr. Fool was usually relaxed and leisurely, calm and indifferent, or difficult to fathom. Rarely did He display that solemn, lofty attitude. And…
