Chapter 175 Speculation

Ranius? The criminal who cheated money and sex? He actually has a certain connection with Hood Eugen of the "Psychological Alchemist Association"... Klein was taken aback when he heard that, and immediately remembered the meaning of the name Lanrus.

This is the scammer who took away more than 10,000 gold pounds!

This is 10 pounds for providing clues, and helping to catch the mobile vault for 100 pounds!

This is scum that cheated innocent women's bodies and emotions!

And he actually knew Hood Eugen, and visited him in the madhouse three times. Does this mean that he has come into contact with the circle of Extraordinary people, or that he is an Extraordinary himself? Thinking of this, Klein suddenly remembered the name of a potion:

Sequence 8 of the "Thief" pathway, "Trickster"!

Such Extraordinary people often take pleasure in defrauding others!

Probably! Klein nodded thoughtfully, controlled his facial expressions and body language, and asked casually, pretending not to care:

"When was the last time that Mr. Lanerus visited Hood Eugene?"

"At the beginning of July, what day is it? I have to go back to the madhouse to look through the corresponding registration form to find out." Dust Guderian replied after pondering for a few seconds.

At the beginning of July, at that time, Lanerwusi's scam hadn't gone bankrupt, and he hadn't escaped from Tingen... Klein turned to ask:

"Has Hood Eugene mentioned this gentleman?"

"No, you should know that it is impossible for a Sequence 7 'psychiatrist' to accidentally leak certain things. Every word they say is carefully considered in their hearts, unless they have other purposes , otherwise it would be difficult to find out the secret from them, and I also took advantage of the opportunity of Hood Eugen's madness to get the formula of 'Mind Reader', by the way, have you confirmed the authenticity of that formula?" Daxter hid his pride in his sequence well.

Klein smiled and said:

"It's true. When you need to be promoted, you can safely prepare potions according to it. If the "Psychological Alchemy Association" fails to provide materials, we can help. Well, how is your recent state?"

"It's not bad. Except for being more anxious about Hood Eugen, the whole person has been relaxed, and there is no sign of split personality anymore. In this matter, you really helped me a lot." Daxter Sincerely said with emotion.

Klein made a humble expression and said:

"This is what I should do."

"Let's go back to the topic just now. Since you said that the 'psychiatrist' will carefully consider every word he will say and not easily reveal secrets, why did Hood Eugene tell you that El is Lanerus? Is he hinting at something, or reminding you of something?"

Daxter was stunned for a long time before he frowned and said:

"It's really weird, I didn't pay attention at all...But other than that, Hood Eugen didn't mention anything... Could it be that his purpose is that if there is something wrong with him, I can tell the people in the meeting The higher-ups relayed the name Lanrus?"

"The actual situation is also a bit problematic. After I reported the matter of Hood Eugen's madness, a liaison officer did come over. After I explained every detail in detail,

Including Lan Erwusi's name, the higher-ups didn't respond anymore, like a stone thrown into the sea. Does this mean that they guessed something? "

"A very reasonable guess." Klein took out the demon hunting bullets, stuffed them into the wheel one by one, and tried to aim at the target.

"Based on this conjecture, Hood Eugen may have expected that he would really go crazy or die directly... and this has something to do with Lanwusi? But, since he has already predicted it, why didn't he report it to the higher-ups in advance? Help?" Daxter looked forward without focus, thinking hard, "It's a pity that he is crazy now and can't communicate effectively."

"Maybe a certain temptation made him choose to take risks." Klein made a guess.

At the same time, he was regretting that Hood Eugene had really become a mental patient, which cut off many clues.

Hey, even a dead person is better than a lunatic. I can use a psychic method to make a dead person speak. What should a lunatic do? Ah yes, Ms. Daly once tried to use spiritism to awaken my lost memories, and the theory she used came from the "Psychological Alchemy Society"... This shows that "psychic rituals" can also be used on living people to create a direct relationship between spirits and spirits. The communication situation... In this state, I don't know if Hood Eugene is still crazy...

It's a pity, I'm not professional enough in this field, I probably can't do it... well, I'll call the messenger first, write to Ms. Daly to see what skills she can provide, if she thinks that only she can do it, then tell Captain, ask him to send a telegram to Backlund Diocese, requesting assistance...

I definitely didn't go around in circles just to learn some skills and try the ritual of summoning the messenger...

Thoughts flashed through Klein's mind, and he gradually came up with a solution to the problem.

Daxter quite agrees with his guess:

"Greed always makes people ignorant. Even if you clearly know that there is an abyss ahead, try to get close to the boundary and take a peek."

This is called crazy probing on the verge of death... Klein slandered, thought for a while and said:

"After you return to the lunatic asylum, try to treat Hood Eugen as much as possible, try to make him awake for a while, and give him a hint."

"Also, don't hide your worries and anxieties, contact more people from the 'Psychological Alchemists', and urge them to solve Hood Eugen's problem. This is the most normal and reasonable reaction."

Daxter nodded solemnly and said:

"I try to do it."

Klein didn't say any more, and asked another question after deliberation:

"Has there been any abnormalities in Hood Eugen's body recently? For example, some parts have fine scales."

"Half-crazy", "truly crazy" and "out of control" are descriptions of different degrees when extraordinary people really have problems. The mild ones are just changes in the three views, like a different person, but they can think rationally and act normally, which belongs to "half-crazy" , the more serious ones will lose logic, become chaotic and insane, and have difficulty communicating, which is called "true madness".

And at some point, if the existing problems are not solved in time, the madness may be out of control.

Previously, in order not to expose the informants lurking inside the "Psychological Alchemy Association", Dunn ordered the nighthawks not to immediately control Hood Eugene, but to adopt monitoring and investigation to prevent accidents. Signs must be dealt with decisively.

Daxter shook his head and smiled wryly:

"No, you can rest assured on this point. I am also very afraid that Hood Eugen will lose control and will not miss any details. After all, I am in the madhouse six days a week."

After a few more conversations, the two left the range ten minutes apart.

Klein endured the intense sleepiness and took the public carriage all the way back to Narcissus Street.

He opened the door and saw his younger sister sitting on the sofa in the living room, neither reading a book nor tinkering with parts and machinery, just staring at the front in a daze, looking like she had lost her soul.

Tapping his teeth and turning on his spirit vision, Klein asked doubtfully:

"Melissa, what happened?"

Judging from the color of the aura, the body is very healthy... not as malnourished as before...

Melissa withdrew her gaze, pursed her lower lip, looked at the kitchen where the voice came from, and said blankly:

"Bella has been recommending her family's unique breakfast recipe and said it is very delicious. I promised to let her try it this morning."

"What to do?" Klein vaguely had a bad feeling.

"Put the leftovers from last night together and cook, then add water and bread..." Melissa repeated in a low and erratic voice.

This, this is a standard dark dish... Klein stretched out his hand and pinched his forehead:

"so?"

"You can't waste food..." Melissa bit her lip and nodded seriously.

Sister, I feel that you are doubting life... Klein cleared his throat, suppressed his smile, and asked instead:

"Where's Benson?"

"He's in the bathroom." Melissa finally got rid of her confusion, and her eyes regained their brilliance.

At this moment, there was the sound of water being pumped from the bathroom on the first floor. Benson held a newspaper, opened the door and said:

"Dear Klein, would you like some breakfast?"

"No, I've already eaten." Klein shook his head resolutely, and was extremely thankful that he made an appointment with Dust this morning, otherwise he wouldn't have asked Roseanne to bring breakfast in advance.

"It's a pity, otherwise you would have changed your mind about my cooking skills and become full of confidence." Benson laughed at himself.

At this time, Melissa noticed something, rolled her eyes, looked at Klein and said:

"You came back late today."

Sister, be naive, be lively, don't worry all the time... You were in a good state just now! Klein immediately smiled and said:

"There is good news."

"You have passed the assessment of the Police Agency, so you can receive extra salary?" Melissa asked back without thinking.

Benson also smiled and nodded in agreement.

"..." Klein stood on the edge of the living room with his hat in his hand, and said amusedly, "How can I surprise you?"

Then, with a dry cough, he added:

"Yes, my weekly salary has doubled."

He hid his just-increased £4 a week, intending to build up a small coffers for the future. After all, he couldn't just rely on the money in the bearer account, and the double was enough to scare his brother and sister.

"6 pounds?" Melissa blurted out, both surprised and shocked.

"I really need to change my job." Benson touched his hairline and said.

With the information provided by Klein, his self-study during this period was quite assiduous.

Before Klein could speak, Melissa showed a joyful expression and said:

"In this way, excluding normal expenses, you will be able to accumulate enough wealth within two or three years to meet the minimum standard for a gentleman to get married. Well, the standard is what Elizabeth told me."

"..." Klein laughed dumbly, "This is a long time later, shouldn't we celebrate now? I announce that from today onwards, our staple food will be white bread. When I finish my work, we will Just go to a different restaurant and taste the food."

Melissa glanced at him, and said without hearing anything:

"Benson and I are going to attend Mass at St. Selina Church, are you going?"

I praise the goddess every day... Klein laughed and said:

"I have to catch up on sleep."

This time, he slept until half past twelve, and after having lunch with Benson and Melissa, he continued the task of checking houses with red chimneys.

In the dead of night, he sealed the bedroom spiritually, preparing to try the messenger summoning ritual provided by "Necromancer" Daly.
