Lessons brought experience

Jenna reflexively wanted to turn her head back to the picture book, fearing that the spirit Patient suspected of "I Have a Friend" would notice her gaze.

But almost at the same time, she remembered her mentality and behavior when she was close to Hugh Artois, so she controlled her neck and slowly and naturally withdrew her gaze.

She remained calm enough, followed her original rhythm, and walked out of the gray-blue building step by step under the light of Sunlight outside the window, putting on a light brown straw hat tied with fabric flowers.

It wasn't until he completely left Delta Asylum and returned to the street where he met the little boy that Jenna breathed a sigh of relief.

Her expression remained unchanged as she boarded the Public Carriage leading to Market District.

In the evening, within No. 3 White Coat Street, Apartment 601.

Lumian, who was called here by Jenna, listened to her findings.

Lumian did not hide his surprise and suspicion:

"Really?

"Are you sure you read it correctly?"

Is this too much of a coincidence?

Jenna only saw the portrait of "I Have a Friend" in the morning. In the afternoon, he found the target at Delta Asylum, which he had only visited twice so far. Regardless of Lumian, Franca, or Major Arcana and Minor Arcana at Trier, there was no gain!

This coincidence made Lumian smell the smell of conspiracy and arrangement, so that it lacked substantial joy.

"Yeah, what a coincidence..." This was the attitude of Franca before Lumian arrived.

She murmured, "Although it is quite a classic setting for a guy with anti-human tendencies and a high IQ to hide himself in Asylum, and he can also have close contact with Doctor, but he is not unlucky enough to be bumped into by a visitor who has seen his 'wanted portrait', right? There will not be more than fifty people who have seen his 'wanted portrait' in the entire Trier!"

This includes Anthony·Reid and other Licensed Beyonder's inquiries today.

"How come I didn't know there was such a classic setting..." Jenna muttered, "But I really encountered it, and I definitely didn't admit it. Maybe it's because I've had better luck recently?"

After she finished speaking, she saw disbelief written all over the faces of Lumian and Franca.

Lumian, who was deeply affected by coincidence and had enough experience, asked thoughtfully, "Start thinking about it when you get up this morning and see if there are any coincidences or anything different from usual."

Jenna, who was sitting on Armchair, fell into deep thought.

After nearly a quarter of an hour, she said "fuck": "It's no different than usual!"

"Well, there's something I've never encountered before..."

She recounted in detail how she met a lost little boy, treated him to a drink of Vanilla Ice Cream, and asked the police to take care of him. Finally, she asked a little unconfidently, "There shouldn't be anything unusual about this, right?"

Franca said to himself, "That little boy said you will get good luck?"

Lumian focuses on another detail:

"He said he was brought by Lady who loves to drink?"

"Yes." Jenna answered two questions with Vocabulary.

Lumian suddenly felt suspicious.

Except for some dancers, he only knew two Lady who loved drinking, and the others could only be regarded as casual tastes and social activities.

That one is "Hella" Lady, and the other is "Magician" Lady.

The former always carries multiple pots of spirits with him, while the latter likes to taste different flavors of alcoholic beverages, and can even drink a glass of wine directly from the void.

Based on the public mission of "Tarot Club" to find "I Have a Friend", and "Hella" Lady has not been notified about it, Lumian cautiously judged that the little boy was "Magician" Lady who brought Trier.

Combined with Franca's concern for the phrase "getting good luck", Lumian believed that the little boy should have a very special ability and could give others good luck. Jenna, who got good luck, was naturally lucky enough to meet "I Have a Friend".

Seeing that Lumian and Franca both fell silent and did not speak for dozens of seconds, Jenna became more and more uneasy:

"Is there really a problem with this matter?"

Lumian looked at his companion and said thoughtfully, "Maybe your luck is good enough today, starting from the time you bought Ice Cream for that little boy."

This trick of giving and receiving is also very common in the Fate field, just like "Fortune-Transfer Ritual". The target must voluntarily take away the media, take advantage of what should not be taken, and have the subjective will to do so, in order to complete the transfer.

Therefore, Lumian reasonably suspects that the little boy is "Monster" Pathway, which is the Beyonder of "Destiny" Pathway. He made Jenna meet "I Have a Friend" through a hidden transaction of asking for Ice Cream and giving good luck.

What's "I don't know how to help, I can only wait here", what's "Please give me a Ice Cream, you will get good luck", it's so mysterious Domain of Fate!

"Yeah..." Franca obviously also thought of this possibility.

Jenna understood immediately:

"You mean, that little boy is a very powerful Beyonder, and he gave me enough good luck?

"But other than meeting 'I Have a Friend', I didn't feel anything. I didn't pick up any money, nor did I encounter any free items."

"You probably spent all your good luck meeting 'I Have a Friend'." Franca sighed with emotion.

Lumian stood up:

"I'll go check it out."

He then walked into Franca's bedroom and closed the door.

"How to confirm?" Jenna asked Franca curiously.

Franca guessed and replied, "Write a letter."

"To 'Hella' Lady?" Jenna currently only knows that That One Lady has Messenger.

"Other Lady." Franca It's hard to explain clearly.

In her bedroom, Lumian, who had cleaned up Altar, quickly received a reply from "Magician" Lady:

"So this is how to find 'I Have a Friend'. As a Astrologer, I think this is awesome.

"There is no doubt that it was indeed the help we hired, and it cost a lot of favors and a lot of Ice Cream.

"Now that you have the result, take action. I will keep an eye on it and help you prevent accidents."

Sure enough...Lumian had a smile on his face.

From the words of "Magician" Lady, he inferred that the little boy was not a member of "Tarot Club", so he would not participate in public tasks for free, and it would cost favors and Ice Cream.

What the hell is Ice Cream? Could such a powerful Beyonder be impressed by Ice Cream? Lumian thought it was absurd and funny at first, and then thought of Godson from Baron Brignais. That silly guy was obviously unusual, and he might be bribed by delicious food.

This made him wonder if Beyonder, which looks like a little boy, had such a "weakness".

Lumian pushed the door open and returned to the living room.

Jenna stood up a little nervously and asked, "Are you sure?"

"He is a helper who is specially here to give you good luck, but when he encounters you belonging to Destiny's arrangement, and you treat him to Ice Cream, it means you have chosen the correct Fate Branch." Lumian replied with a sense of magic.

As Beyonder who also has the ability in Fate's field, he still has a certain say in Destiny.

"Huh..." Jenna breathed a sigh of relief without hiding it. Just now she was worried that she had fallen into a trap.

Seeing Franca also stood up, Lumian took out Silver-White's "Lie" ear clip, raised the corner of his mouth and said, "Let's go to Asylum now, I can't wait."

"Okay." Franca responded while lamenting in his heart.

Ever since Charles came, I have to fight with people every now and then.

It's only been Past a few days since "Loki" attacked!

Go to Four-Wheeled, Four-Seater Hired Carriage at Spa District.

Lumian looked at the black street light pole outside the window and suddenly frowned.

He wondered to himself, "Is what Jenna saw really 'I Have a Friend'?"

Franca and Jenna looked sideways at him and thought of one thing at the same time:

When Hunting Parish Priest Guillaume·Béné, they discovered two stand-ins, and the real Guillaume·Béné was a big dog squatting aside!

"Do you suspect that's a stand-in?" Franca asked in a low voice.

It is a good thing to gain a little more knowledge after experiencing a lesson. After witnessing the wonderful performance of Parish Priest, if you are not careful about this possibility, it can only mean that "Hunter" and "Witch" Pathway are not suitable.

Lumian considered and whispered, "When the problem is exposed and it is likely to be hunted down, will 'I Have a Friend' worry that the 'pranks' in the previous months will become hidden dangers?"

"If I were him, since I couldn't erase the corresponding traces, I would have to leave Trier quickly and come back after a while, but he didn't do that.

"This shows that he either has enough confidence that we can't find him, or there are very important things that must be left at Trier. In that case, hiding himself in the dark and putting his substitute in the open is a good choice."

"Does he also have 'Lie' or the 'Substitution' you mentioned?" Jenna asked in confusion.

Lumian laughed:

"He may not have 'Lie', but the That One Evil God he believes in controls the field of 'Seer' and is one of the most powerful 'Faceless's. As long as he masters the corresponding Ritual Magic, he can completely request him to change the appearance of a specific target."

This is just like "Tarot Club" members can summon Spirit World Creature in the name of Mr. "The Fool".

"Through Ritual Magic related to 'Faceless', a stand-in was created, and I was secretly monitoring it... But why didn't he just change his appearance directly and have to get a stand-in? Then we wouldn't be able to find him at all!" Franca thought of a dangerous possibility.

Lumian nodded:

"If Delta Asylum is really a stand-in, it means that he represents a trap, deliberately used to catch us, and 'I Have a Friend' will definitely pay close attention to the final result.

"So, either the double contains a great danger that will not only drag the pursuer to death, but also cause a lot of noise, or the two are very close or have Mysticism connection.

"Don't worry about the previous situation. There is a powerful Lady to guard against accidents. For the following possibilities, we have to rely on you Franca..."

If Asylum That One is "I Have a Friend", the problem is simpler.

On the third floor of Late Night and Delta Asylum, in the room of Annex Building on the east side.

A pair of Gold-Rimmed Glasses is placed on the bedside table, reflecting the little moonlight that penetrates into the room, while Patient is sleeping deeply on the bed.

Suddenly, a black figure opened the heavy door with iron bars and windows and walked in silently.

He held Handle politely and closed the door gently, blocking out all movement.

The entire interior space seems to be enclosed.
