Originally planning to stay at Minsk Street until night, but was frightened by Sherlock's sudden remarks and fled. Angel rode a hired carriage and drove westward to Sun. I came to the private Detective agency near North Borough's Backlund Technical College and met Mr. Detective Raymond, who I have been working with for more than half a month.
The latter looked like Already Got Used To It's day-and-night, continuous surveillance operation. Although his expression was a little bad, he was still in good spirits. When his employer arrived, he took out a file bag from the desk drawer and handed it to Angel.
"After many days of tracking, we finally made a new discovery the night before yesterday. The man you are looking for secretly came to the target building at night, pried open the window on the first floor, threw in a letter and escaped," Raymond introduced the gains of the past few days. "We tracked him, found his residence, and conducted an identity investigation to determine the identity of this person."
"Kaliwa Dupont, 39 years old, single, lecturer of Backlund Technical College Department of Mechanical Engineering?"
Looking at the information collected and investigated by Detective, Angel was a little surprised. She did not expect that the person who sent many threatening letters to Lily Granger was actually her teacher. This older bachelor was well-dressed and teaching in the college during the day. At night, he sneaked to the door of the student's house, pried open the window and stuffed threatening letters inside?
If the content of the letter were changed, it would become a bloody love story... She cursed in her heart and glanced at Kaliva's address. It was also at North Borough, two streets away and could be reached within ten minutes' walk.
"Thank you, Raymond Detective. As agreed, I will pay an additional 5 pounds to purchase this information, and this commission is over."
Angel collected the information, paid the final payment, and left the Detective agency.
It's not that she doesn't want the Detectives to continue to stare at Lily's house and find more clues, but there are several Nighthawkss who are also following her. If there are private Detectives that appear near Lily's home for a long time, it will easily attract the attention of these Beyonders, which will be counterproductive.
On the way, she bought Dixie Pie and Sweet Iced Tea for lunch. She quickly found the originator of the threatening letter and the residence of Kaliwa Dupont. The lecturer of Technical College had a decent income. Kaliva was also a bachelor, so the residence was a three-story building. It was unknown whether it was rented or owned.
After a brief divination in the back alley and confirming that Kaliva was not at home, Angel directly pried open the back door and entered the small building from the kitchen.
The furnishings on the first floor were quite simple, and she did not find many useful clues. She only knew that the lecturer Department of Mechanical Engineering was a pottery enthusiast in private. There were many crudely made pottery pots stacked in the basement. Only the exquisitely made rolling machine in the living room proved his proficiency in mechanics.
On the second floor, Angel quickly found several threatening letters in the study that could prove the other party's private behavior. The handwriting was the same as the one she found in Lily's home. They were all written by her non-dominant hand, and the contents were similar.
With the letters found in the Caliva Family, he was able to report to the police and reveal the true identity of this duplicitous lecturer. However, Angel was still a little curious. What was the real purpose of the other party?
The other party is the family member of the deceased soul in the hands of Cole Granger, and is he planning to take revenge on Lily? Or maybe the lecturer has some bad thoughts towards his students and is ready to threaten first and then appease them in order to gain Lily's favor?
Several possibilities flashed through his mind, and Angel denied them one by one.
Since you can't think of an answer, let's use the "external brain"...
She casually took a pen, put several threatening letters together, took out Magic Mirror and performed a Magic Mirror Divination directly in the study.
"Magic Mirror Magic Mirror tell me the real reason why Kaliwa Dupont threatened Lily Granger."
After injecting Spirituality and reciting the divination word, Gray Fog quickly appeared on the surface of Magic Mirror, displaying several brief scenes.
Almost all of them were clips of Kaliva's daily life at home and school, some giving lectures on the podium, doing pottery in the living room, and even clips of writing threatening letters, but the content she needed was not found in them.
"The divination results are completely irrelevant to my needs... This is probably due to some kind of interference. It does not directly interrupt the divination, but shows some false results?"
Looking at the dressing mirror that reflected her face again, Angel pondered.
After being promoted to Witch, she has performed Magic Mirror Divination many times, but this is the first time that this situation has occurred. There must be someone Beyonder who is proficient in divination and Anti-Divination behind Kaliva to protect him.
But I once used the threatening letter to conduct divination at Lily's house, and actually tracked the lecturer, without being disturbed at that time...
No, was it really the "real divination result" at that time?
Angel suddenly realized that perhaps the first divination result might have been misled or interfered with.
She remembered Sherlock's words. "If you rely too much on divination, you can easily put yourself in danger."
At that time, the two of them had just solved a problem, Devil Dog, who was deceived by the divination results and came to their door...
At this moment, Angel felt that the slanting sunlight outside the study window seemed a little dim, and the furnishings in the study returned to normal after a moment of blur, as if the focus was lost due to a moment of absent-mindedness.
But the cold Hidden Holy Emblem on her wrist made her react immediately.
He was pulled directly from his waking state into a dream!
She subconsciously looked out the window and glanced at the door. She didn't see anyone entering the study, but she knew that even Nightmare had the ability to pull Dream Invasion remotely. Assuming that the attacker was a "Soul Assurer", he could do all this even from a hundred meters away without putting himself at risk.
But simply pulling me Dream Invasion is useless. He must have the cooperation of other teammates, such as taking advantage of my sleep to approach me in reality and arrest me...
This is how Team Nighthawks operates!
Angel's heart beat a little faster. She didn't expect that she would become the target of Nighthawks's attack.
Could it be the team that monitors and protects Lily? But how did they find it here?
Without thinking about it, she held Hidden Holy Emblem with her right hand. With a thought, she immediately returned to reality from the dream. This process was extremely simple. She believed that even without the help of the Holy Emblem, she would soon find herself in a dream and get rid of these shackles.
The other party may only have Sequence 7...
With this thought in mind, she opened her eyes. The sun was still shining brightly outside the window, and there were several threatening letters she found on the table in the study. Everything seemed unchanged.
But there were already fast, chaotic footsteps outside the door, and more than one person was going upstairs and approaching the study.
The next second, Angel's figure disappeared into the study. At the same moment, the door was kicked open. Lorotta, who had black hair and a black trench coat, kicked open the door. Borgia, who had knife marks on his face, passed her by and rushed into the study. He aimed the revolver everywhere, but could not find anyone.
"Escaped? No, maybe invisible!"
Borgia glanced at the study like a falcon, raised the revolver without hesitation, quickly cocked the hammer, turned the magazine, skipped two bullets, and then fired a shot at the ground.
"Bang——"
Among the Phantom Phosphor Powder flying in the sky, an outline outlined by a white halo appeared in the corner of the study.
Angel never dreamed that the "Phantom Phosphor Eruption" that Tingen City worked so hard to produce and handed over to Church of the Evernight Goddess would one day be used on him.
