"Behind-the-Scenes Manipulation"

"Delilah Leroy is the daughter of a gem merchant. She is married and has a son and a daughter. She likes Opera, drama and literature. After the last incident, she was still active in Opera District, so she was discovered by my informant in less than a week... She does not have the habit of bringing bodyguards. She only goes out with her personal Maid and a valet who does odd jobs..."

Sitting in a window box in a street cafe, Janna recalled the integrated intelligence while watching the elegant lady with makeup get out of her carriage and enter Trier's prestigious Bonny's Department Store on Boulevard Street.

Jenna withdrew his gaze, nodded to Anthony·Reid diagonally opposite and said, "That's her."

"The question now is..." Franca, who was on the same side as Jenna, said thoughtfully, "Is she in Fishing or Fishing? If she is just surprised by her own induction and actually doesn't know anything, then I We may not get any valuable clues from her. If she still listens to Opera and watches dramas in a high-profile manner even though she knows that she has resonated with 'Mirror World Fragment', it is reasonable to think that she or the people behind her want to fish out the owner of 'Mirror World Fragment'."

After analyzing a lot, Franca came to the conclusion:

"It is very dangerous to deal with Delilah rashly or come into contact with her."

"But 'Magic Mirror Divination' said our actions today are safe." Jenna raised an objection.

Franca smiled slightly and said, "Don't be superstitious about Divination. Moreover, it is not necessarily dangerous. It may also be that rash contact with Delilah will lead to interruption of subsequent clues."

"Then we just watch like this? Wait a month or two until the other party relaxes before taking action?" Jenna suddenly thought about it, straightened his back slightly and said, "I have a way!"

"What can I do?" Franca was very curious.

Jenna pursed his lips and smiled:

"Use Mystical Item, use that 'Power Broker’s Black Box', and ask it to give us a brief opportunity to contact Delilah without anyone watching or seeing it.

"That way, if the problem comes from the person behind Delilah, he will have no way of knowing about the contact, and the clues will not be cut off. But if the problem comes from Delilah, we can immediately switch to contact control."

Franca thought carefully for a few seconds:

"It's not impossible...

"I actually want to try out how to use that 'Power Broker’s Black Box'. Don't fight with me. I, Sequence, am taller than you and have better life-saving ability than you. If there are evil creatures like Devil seeking a deal, I can also ask 'Judgement' Lady, the powerful 'Arbiter', to be a witness!"

This "Pleasure Witch" looks eager to try.

Jenna was silent for a few seconds and said, "Okay."

Anthony then said, "Leave the opportunity of brief contact to me. If you want to leave no clues or traces for the people behind Delilah to discover, 'Hypnotist' is the best choice."

"No problem." Franca was not polite, and then looked at Jenna, waiting for her to take out "Dark Box of the powerful person".

Jenna, like many Women mercenaries, wears Gray-White-colored clothes with brown Leather Armor inlaid on key parts, and carries a brown leather backpack.

She took the small Wooden Box, which was painted with dark paint and had leather curtains on each side, out of her backpack and placed it on the table in Café's box.

Franca considered the words of the request and the price of Bribery's "authority", lifted up Lady’s shirt's sleeves, and held a small cloth bag containing one hundred Gold Louis with his right hand, starting from Wooden Box A leather membrane curtain on the side extends in - although the "Instructions for Use" did not say that Banknotes cannot be used, Franca based on its rich experience with Mysticism, chose Gold Coin, which is more universal.

The next second, she touched the wrinkled and wet skin, and felt five fingers closing together to hold the cloth bag containing Gold Coin.

Enduring the sudden nausea, Franca deliberately expressed his request in Hermetic:

"I want my friend Anthony Reed, who is sitting across from me now, and Delilah, who comes from the gem merchant Leroy's family in the nearby Bonney's department store, to have an uninterrupted, unwatched, very private, face-to-face opportunity that lasts for more than three minutes."

Franca added a lot of qualifiers to ensure that the two parties meeting and the way of meeting are precise enough and not be confused by Distortion.

The wrinkled and wet palm-like thing lifted up the cloth bag containing Gold Coin and retracted it.

This means "Power Broker’s Black Box" agreed.

Franca withdrew his right hand, took out a white handkerchief and wiped the touched area, and kept licking his lips.

"Where can I wait for the chance to meet?" Anthony asked.

Franca put away the handkerchief, smiled and said, "Only two people appeared in the request, one is you and the other is That One Delilah Leroy, so you can only wait for the chance to meet her by following her.

"Well..."

Speaking of this, Franca took out the dazzling string of "Seven-Stone Bracelet" from "Traveler’s Bag" and handed it to Anthony:

"If something goes wrong, immediately 'Teleportation' escape."

Seeing that "Pleasure Witch" had a serious expression on his face, Anthony swallowed back his polite words and reached out to take "Seven-Stone Bracelet".

Franca considered it and added, "If you can trust me, I can also use your blood and hair to make a 'Mirror Substitute' for you."

Anthony was silent for a few seconds and said, "Okay."

Within Bonnie Department Store.

As "Hypnotist" who is good at observation, it didn't take long for Anthony to find Delilah Leroy.

This Lady is standing in the center of the first floor with Maid and the maid, watching the lively performance of Magician invited by the department store.

At this time, Magician's assistant pushed up a Natural-Wood-Colored Box that could accommodate three or four people. That One Magician took off his hat, raised his head and said, "Next, please two lucky Spectators to cooperate with me in performing."

"This Lady, I wonder if you can come on stage to help?"

He was referring to none other than Delilah Leroy.

Delilah was not too happy and showed obvious hesitation, but could not refuse the words, so he finally walked up to the Wooden Stage that was set up to perform magic.

Personality is relatively weak and is not very good at rejecting others... It may also be the influence of "Powerful One’s Dark Box"... Anthony vaguely guessed the opportunity to meet, and while evaluating Delilah's Personality, he took the initiative to take a step forward.

Then Magician really saw him:

"This man please come up too."

Anthony deliberately showed reluctance and walked onto the stage coquettishly.

Magician pointed at the Wooden Box and said, "You guys sit in."

Delilah pursed his lips, exhaled, and got into Wooden Box under the urging of the hecklers Spectator.

Anthony sat farthest away from her, and while there was still light, he smiled and said, "Actually, I'm quite embarrassed too."

These words were plain and kind, making Delilah's tense mood suddenly relax.

Anthony then said, "Don't believe it? You can look into my eyes."

He pointed to his eyes.

Delilah subconsciously looked at Past and saw the pair of Deep Brown colors Eyes that reflected his figure.

My figure...Delilah was suddenly startled, and his eyes seemed to be caught in the circle of Whirlpool going downwards.

At this time, Magician closed Wooden Box, and it was dark inside.

Anthony immediately seized the opportunity and asked, "A week ago, did you have a special feeling in Opera District?"

"Yes." Delilah, who felt that the other party was very trustworthy, answered truthfully.

"What kind of feeling is that?" Anthony asked while listening to Magician outside speaking the prepared lines.

"My heartbeat is speeding up and my blood is boiling." Delilah described the feeling at that time.

"Do you know what that means?" Anthony asked further.

Delilah shook his head in the darkness:

"I don't know, but my real father told me that if I have a similar feeling, I need to report it to him as soon as possible."

"The real father?" Anthony guessed.

Delilah laughed at himself and said, "The biological father, he is my mother's Lover, the current government's Minister of Ministry of Industry, Moran Avni."

Moran Avni...Anthony felt that Magician started to try on Wooden Box, and quickly asked the last question:

"Did he say anything when he found out you had similar feelings?"

"Let me not worry and live my life as usual." Delilah is actually still a little worried.

Anthony said "hmm":

"Beautiful Lady, I am very happy to perform this magic with you. Can you give me some commemorative items?

"For example, a few strands of hair."

His voice was low and magnetic, making Delilah think this was a very normal request.

So, she pulled out several hairs and handed them to Anthony.

After touching the hair follicles of those few hairs, Anthony breathed a sigh of relief and still said in a low voice, "I don't want this to destroy your family. After this Wooden Box, when you hear the snap of my fingers, you will forget our relationship here..."

As the magnetic voice echoed, Delilah's thoughts became a little blurry again.

Snap!

Wooden Box opened it, only Anthony was left inside, and Delilah was pulled out from the curtain behind the performance stage by Magician.

Spectators applauded happily.

When the applause subsided a little, Magician pressed his hand on his chest and bent down to thank him. Anthony didn't look at Delilah and quietly snapped his fingers.

Delilah Originally wanted to chat with this man who made her feel close to him. After hearing the snapping sound, his body trembled slightly and his eyes were a little confused at first, but he soon regained consciousness.

She turned around and walked down Wooden Stage, returning to the space between Maid and the male servant.

Anthony left slowly and disappeared into the crowd.

Within Memorial Hall District, 9 Orosei Street, Apartment 702.

Franca smeared the ashes of Delilah's hair burned with Black Flame onto the surface of Vanity Mirror, and recited the Descriptive Phrase of the most commonly used "Magic Mirror Divination" object.

Amidst the sound of rushing water and the luster of Gloom, Franca asked, "Is the owner of these hairs 'Person in the Mirror'?"

The old voice answered:

"No."
