Without afternoon tea, Klein decided to go to St. Samuel's Church to pray to show his piety.

Of course, he did not forget to stop and admire the white pigeons in the square, making himself appear leisurely and calm.

After entering the church and passing through the murals illuminated by the sunlight, Klein arrived at the dark and deep prayer hall.

Unlike other churches, this one is not ornately decorated, dazzling, and visually shocking, but it is gentle and peaceful, making people feel tranquil from the bottom of their hearts. The pure light like bright stars in the front exudes a strong sense of sacredness and solemnity.

Klein took off his hat and handed it and his cane to his valet Richardson, then walked forward along the aisle.

At this time, two figures in the front row stood up, turned around and walked towards the exit. One of them had black hair and green eyes, and his movements were elegant and his hairstyle was unruly. It was Leonard Mitchell.

Almost at the same time, Leonard Mitchell also saw the middle-aged man with gray hair at the temples and deep blue eyes.

Dwayne Dantès...his mind tensed up, and his body stiffened slightly.

Klein looked at Leonard and nodded with a smile, his expression friendly and his gesture casual.

...Leonard forced a slight smile and nodded slightly with some difficulty.

Then, he turned sideways, cleared the way, and passed by Dwayne Dantès.

This allowed Klein to see clearly who was behind him. It was also someone he knew, Daly, who was wearing a black psychic robe.

The lady still wore blue eyeshadow and blush, giving her a bewitching beauty.

Daly glanced at the middle-aged gentleman passing by, her expression suddenly dazed for a moment, then she retracted her gaze and approached the exit in silence.

No way, I just imitated the deep feeling of the captain's eyes. Even the color is different. How can Ms. Daly feel familiar? Women's intuition is really scary... Klein noticed Daly's brief abnormality and had some vague guesses in his mind.

A long time ago, in his straight male cognition, Ms. Daly had a crush on the captain, otherwise she would not have taken the risk to rush to Tingen and let Klein find an opportunity to teach Dunn Smith the acting method.

As for the captain's attitude in this regard, Klein couldn't be sure. After all, during that period, Dunn Smith often couldn't distinguish between reality and dreams, and his memory was quite bad. Perhaps he had unknowingly forgotten certain things in his heart.

However, the captain did often mention Ms. Daly, always using her as an example to educate us. He was so familiar with how many years it took her to be promoted and what kind of talents she had that he seemed to be able to recite them backwards. This was a bit contradictory to his poor memory at the time... Well, when the captain talked about these things, he would occasionally add that it took him nine years to go from "Midnight Poet" to "Nightmare"... When he faced Ms. Daly, did he feel a little inferior in his heart... inferior... Klein recalled the past and suddenly felt a little depressed.

He found that he didn't really know Dunn Smith that well, and didn't know how much this man was hiding in his heart.

Besides, Ms. Daly was much younger than him, and she was very open-minded and didn't care about marriage... Klein sighed silently, collected his thoughts, found a seat by the side, lowered his head, closed his eyes and prayed.

Outside the prayer hall, Leonard had adjusted his condition and met up with Daly and the members of his Red Gloves team.

They waited for a while, and Sost, who had become a "spiritual wizard", came out from the other side, looked around and said:

"Our mission this time is to find the official members of the Spiritual Cult hiding in Backlund based on the various clues found in the previous explosion of the Black Skull Party headquarters.

"Ms. Daly is a Beyonder of the Path of the Corpse Collector and has a deep understanding of the Spiritual Order, so Saint Anthony asked her to assist us."

…………

At night, after sending away his personal valet Richardson, Klein took four steps backwards and entered the gray fog. He manifested the "world" Gehrman Sparrow and made him pray with a blurry figure:

"...Please tell Miss Magician that she needs to book a hotel room in the East End by Friday night, preferably away from where Mr. X is calling for the party...

"...Give me the stone and the magic book in advance. I need to make some preparations...

"…On Friday night, she had to stop the friend who was at Mr. X's party from presenting her disguised appearance to me…

"If there is anything else, I will let you know in time."

The assassination of Mr. X was to be carried out in two days. Klein undoubtedly had to make some preparations in advance. However, Dwayne Dantès was unable to handle many of the tasks involved, so he could only rely on Miss Magician to do them.

His initial plan was to use the ability of the "Faceless Man" to disguise himself as a friend attending Mr. X's party, learn the secret code, enter directly, and then adopt different plans for different situations.

Based on his experience of fighting with people and manipulating puppets during this period, Klein increasingly felt that the rules of the "Master of Secret Puppetry" should include "try to hide behind the scenes and secretly direct a drama."

Unless there is really no other way, the "Master of Secret Arts" should avoid direct combat with others!

"The most troublesome thing right now is that Mr. X's party is at 8 o'clock, and Dwayne Dantès is obviously still awake at this time. He can't get rid of the attention of the butler and servants for a long time and go to the East District secretly... Of course, this can also create evidence of his absence, but the problem is, how can he hide it from everyone in this house... It would be great if there was an accomplice of the Faceless Man, who could pretend to be Dwayne Dantès... Miss Justice's necklace can do it, but she is not in Backlund..." Klein leaned back in his chair and rubbed his forehead with his hand.

He even wanted to summon himself directly, respond to himself, and act under the identity of the thief "Black Emperor", but this would make him lose the ability to change his body's appearance, making it difficult for him to possess others and disguise himself as the friend of "Magician" Fors to attend Mr. X's party.

Unless Miss Magician's friend becomes an accomplice and allows me to possess her... This won't work either. First, it will expose some of the Tarot Club's secrets. Second, Mr. X may have a way to discover the "ghost". Of course, he can use a series of seals such as gold coins, paper angels, and iron cigarette boxes to hide the traces... Klein thought for a while and finally decided to use a method that he was quite skilled in in his previous life.

That's pretending to be sick!

I will be "sick" starting tomorrow. I will eat very little every day and go to bed before 8 o'clock... This way, the housekeeper and servants will not disturb me... But if there is an emergency here and Walter and the others come to knock on the door, what should I do? The illusion created by the "magician" can only deceive the eyes, not artificial intelligence... artificial intelligence... Oh, I can fix the illusion on the mirror and make it look like Dwayne Dantes, and then let the "magic mirror" Arrodes remotely control the questions and answers! Thinking about it, Klein's mind suddenly became clear.

I have to say, this guy Arrodes is quite useful sometimes... Klein sighed and returned to the real world. He walked to the desk, found a pen and paper, and drew a mixed pattern that combined secret and voyeur symbols.

As soon as he put down the last stroke, the light in the room suddenly dimmed a little. The full-length mirror first turned dark, and then a silver-white light emerged, outlining one Loenese word after another:

"Great Master, your humble and loyal servant Arrodes has heard your call. Am I late?"

There are always new tricks... Klein shook his head amusedly and said:

"No."

"This is your tolerance towards me, great master. You may ask questions now." The words appeared on the mirror in an orderly manner.

Klein thought for a moment and said:

"I plan to eliminate Mr. X, the messenger of the Aurora Society. What suggestions do you have?"

The words on the full-length mirror froze for a few seconds before changing:

"You'd better put your plans after Thursday."

It matches my previous divination...On Thursday and tonight, Mr. X might be near the "Angel of Destiny" Ouroboros or one of the saints of the Aurora Society...Klein smiled and said:

"Arrodes, I need your help with something."

"This, this is my honor! This is the opportunity you gave me!" Words popped up quickly, fully expressing what excitement and joy are. "Excuse me, what is the task?"

Klein nodded and said:

“This Friday night, I will use a mirror as an illusion prop and transform it into my current identity… If something urgent happens, you will be responsible for manipulating the mirror, answering questions, and preventing anyone from noticing anything unusual.

"Can you do that?"

The air around the full-length mirror suddenly moved, and a very flattering voice belonging to Dwayne Dantès rang out:

"Great Master, I will do my best to complete whatever you ask.

“Although this cannot be maintained for too long and is not in line with my habits, it is enough to handle everyone here.

"I can simulate any sound if you want!"

More versatile than I thought... It's not easy to be a mirror these days... But, the last sentence always feels weird... Klein's facial muscles moved and he said:

"When dealing with it, conceal the nature of the quiz game so that no one can find out."

Arrodes immediately displayed new words on the full-length mirror:

"I will play your role well!"

“Very good.” Klein nodded slightly.

He was indeed worried that Arrodes would ask embarrassing questions to the butler Walter and the valet Richardson, such as whether he had any fantasies when facing a lady who shouldn't be impulsive, and who he was thinking about when he was solving problems by himself in the dead of night.

He believed that given the integrity of the “Magic Mirror”, if it was not warned in advance, it might really do so. Danitz was almost broken by it at that time.

Without further ado, Klein said:

"That's all for today. I'll contact you on Friday night."

"Yes, great master, your humble servant can't wait to serve you!" "Magic Mirror" Arrodes first materialized a line of words, and then made a simple drawing of a waving hand.
