Faced with the "inexplicable familiarity", other Sequence 9 Beyonders might try their best to recall it, or might ignore it and forget it, but the fortune teller was different. Klein ended the ceremony directly, removed the spiritual wall, dug out a piece of paper, and wrote down the divination statement:

"The source of the familiar feeling just now."

Then he sat down on the edge of the bed in the bedroom, holding the paper and reciting the sentence silently.

After reciting it seven times, his eyes turned darker and with the help of meditation, he fell into a deep sleep and “talked” to his own spirit.

In the blurry and distorted world, Klein saw a carriage and a young lady in a gray and white dress.

The girl had smooth black hair, a round face, a gentle and sweet temperament, and her body was shaking abnormally.

The screen flickered, and Klein saw the beautiful young girl again. She was in an underground market, squatting and talking rudely with someone.

The dream faded quickly, and Klein woke up. He understood why he felt familiar with the image in the mirror.

He has met the other person in real life!

"The first time we met was on Daffodil Street, which is near Iron Cross Street. That night, the captain and his men were hunting down the 'instigator' Tris on Lower Iron Cross Street... There does seem to be a certain connection between the two..." Klein pondered for dozens of seconds, then arranged a ceremony and prayed to the goddess, depicting the image of the enemy in his mind.

Dunn and the others had been waiting quietly without making any comments until this moment, when they came closer and examined the portrait.

"Have you ever seen her?" Dunn asked.

Klein nodded slightly and answered concisely:

"Yes. I met her at the public coach station in Daffodil Street, near Iron Cross Street, on the night you were hunting down the 'instigator.'"

"Then she is most likely the enemy just now, an accomplice of the instigator." Dunn nodded as if he was thinking.

At this time, Leonard suddenly said:

"Don't you think the portrait is familiar? She looks a lot like Tris the Instigator!"

Klein was stunned for a moment, then immediately turned his gaze to the paper and re-examined the portrait of the young lady.

"Well, they are indeed very similar. The face is rounder, the eyes are narrow, and the temperament is gentle..." The more he looked, the more he felt that Leonard's words made sense. However, the facial features of the "instigator" Tris were still ordinary, while the young lady was beautiful enough.

Klein raised his head and glanced at Leonard, only to find that he raised his eyebrows to hint at him.

What does that mean? He was confused and bewildered.

Dunn Smith thought and guessed:

"Perhaps she is the sister of the 'Instigator' and has also joined the Gnosis Society, or the Witch Cult."

Seeing that Klein and he had no tacit understanding, Leonard sighed secretly and said seriously:

"I have a bold idea."

"What's the idea?" Dunn asked.

Leonard stated it very directly:

"I suspect this person is the 'instigator' Tris!"

"What?" Frye blurted out in surprise.

Dunn frowned slightly and said:

"You mean, the 'instigator' Tris is actually a woman, or the one just now is a man pretending to be a woman. No, from the contact in the dream, I confirm that she is a woman."

After all, Klein had seen too many wild ideas and all kinds of bizarre plots. After taking another look at the portrait, he immediately had another guess:

"Could it be that the 'instigator' Tris has turned into a female?"

In this way, many details can be explained, such as why Tris's clues suddenly stopped. Even if divination is used, there is no trace, because the target object has undergone a fundamental change! The only question is, how can he suddenly become a woman, and it seems quite easy... The "cross-dressing man" looks pretty good after the transformation. No, to be honest, it is quite good... Klein thought divergently.

Leonard nodded with relief and said, "Yes, that's what I thought. This can perfectly explain the sudden disappearance of the 'instigator' Tris. It also fits the fact that the upper echelons of the Witch Cult are all women."

"..." Dunn and Frye were speechless for a moment.

Even though they had seen many monsters and many magical things, this was the first time they had encountered such a change!

"You mean, there are many ladies in the upper echelons of the Witch Cult who were once men?" Dunn asked back. Without waiting for an answer, he continued, "It is indeed possible... This may be the characteristic of them, no, their sequence potions."

Klein felt a chill in his lower body after hearing this, and felt that the witch sequence potion was simply too bad!

"I hope the 'Fortune Teller' sequence doesn't have this kind of crappy potion... No, it definitely won't. One is the Witch Path, and I know it's not right just by the name... But, I don't know what the Sequence 1 corresponding to the 'Fortune Teller' is..." He subconsciously prayed to the goddess.

"Can potions accomplish this kind of thing?" Frye asked, still a little unconvinced.

Leonard spread his hands and smiled:

"Even low- to medium-sequence potions can bring about miraculous changes in people. After all, they all originated from the Creator."

At this time, Dunn turned his head and looked at Klein: "Try to divine the target's current location."

“Okay.” Klein came to the pile of messy skirts and took one with complicated feelings and spread it on the carpet.

He placed his cane on it, recalling the target's features and relevant information, and silently recited the divination sentence:

"Tris, no, Tris's whereabouts."

"Triss's whereabouts."

…

After seven times, Klein's eyes turned from brown to black, and wind suddenly swirled around him.

His left hand left the top of the cane, causing the black cane inlaid with silver to shake.

Despite the swaying, the walking stick did not fall down and remained stable in its original place.

“There is interference…” Klein said in a deep voice.

The presence of interference means that your direction is correct!

The lady just now is most likely the "instigator" Tris, no, Triss!

Seeing this, Dunn nodded slightly and said:

"As expected, this is a witch sect that has been active on the continent since the last era..."

Because Tris had become Triss, he judged that the other party was not a member of the Gnosis Society, but belonged to the Witch Cult.

Looking around, Dunn sighed and said, "We can trace it from other places, such as the source of these dresses, such as the owner of this house, and have the police department send people to check the steam train station and the dock."

These can indeed provide clues, but that way, Triss will have plenty of time to get away from Tingen... Well, let's go home and try again above the gray fog... Klein is wary of people like Triss who would commit mass murders at the slightest disagreement, and he wishes he could find her immediately and execute her on the spot.

"Leonard, go to the police department and gather some people to handle the aftermath. Klein, you can go home and rest..." At this point, Dunn rubbed his temple, paused for a few seconds, and looked at Klein half-examining and half-instructing, "If you were in charge, how would you handle what happened just now? Suppose your team includes me, Leonard, and Frye."

Klein frowned and thought for more than ten seconds before saying:

"I will first use divination to confirm whether the ritual will take effect in a short period of time. If the answer is no, I will monitor it first and stay away from it. Then I will send someone to notify the police and the nearby garrison troops to mobilize at least five artillery pieces to bombard the house and flatten the altar and the place where Triss is hiding."

"She can either hide inside and get blown to death, or escape under the gunfire, which will easily expose her whereabouts. I will ask you captains to guard different positions in advance..."

The more he talked about it, the more excited he became. He felt that this method was simple and effective, rough and straightforward, very safe and very reliable!

Dunn, Leonard, and Frye were all stunned, and no one spoke for a long time.

“Um, Captain, isn’t this a good idea?” Klein was excited when he saw the other party’s reaction, and his heart suddenly began to falter.

Dunn was silent for a few seconds and said:

"No, this method is very good, but it requires an additional premise, which is to confirm whether the violent destruction of the altar will cause more serious consequences... Hey, we have been night watchers for a long time, and we are used to relying on ourselves, relying on extraordinary abilities, relying on corresponding firearms, and we are also used to not letting ordinary people come into contact with extraordinary events..."

Well, I have always been a staunch supporter of fire coverage... Klein added silently in his mind.

…………

In the deep night, Klein and Leonard walked about 500 meters before they saw the public carriage stop.

After waiting for a while, they returned to Iron Cross Street, one went to the nearby police station, and the other headed towards Daffodil Street.

After arriving outside his home, Klein straightened his clothes and made sure there was nothing strange before taking out his key and opening the door.

In the living room, Melissa and Benson were doing homework and reading a book under the still bright light of the gas lamp. It was quiet and warm.

Benson was exhausted after running around outside during the day, but he still insisted on studying when he got home. He is such a determined person... I can't do that. I just want to lie down now... Klein glanced at his brother, raised his hand with a smile, and greeted him silently.

Benson smiled and said:

“I now understand that a good salary comes at a price.”

“Everything in this world has a price. If you gain something, you have to pay for it.” Klein said as he placed his cane on the rack by the door.

“Emperor Roselle seemed to have said this?” Melissa put down her pen and raised her head.

Unlike universities and public schools, the Technical College in Tingen only has a two-week summer vacation in late July and early August. Classes resume immediately after the hottest period is over.

"Really? I don't know..." Klein answered with a slightly stiff expression.

He took off his hat and walked towards the stairs, intending to go above the gray fog as soon as possible to divine Triss's whereabouts.

Suddenly, he heard his stomach growling and felt an intense hunger.

"Oh, yes. I haven't had dinner yet... But the note I left behind said that the security company would provide working meals, so there was no need to save any food for me... Captain, you really forgot about this..." Klein's expression changed several times, trying to pretend that he was full.

At this moment, Melissa turned her head to look at him, pointed to the kitchen and said:

"I left you a lamb chop, a vegetable soup, and several loaves of bread."

After saying that, she lowered her head, turned her gaze back to the textbook, and whispered to herself:

"I feel like the work meal won't be very good. It will make people lose their appetite..."
