Mysteries: Arcana Wars

Electronic ghost Kewawu.

The appearance of this character really caught Klein by surprise. In the programmer's online legend, Kowawu was a mischievous prankster who appeared and disappeared at random. In the intelligence analysis during this period, Kowawu did not seem to have any contact with other people, and there would be no conversations. He was always a secretive guy.

In his contact with Geraldine, Kowawu only sent intelligence information to the reporter unilaterally, and then disappeared without a trace. Although it was on Geraldine's intelligence network list, there was no contact information.

In Angel's narration, the hacker who called himself Kovau seemed to have a good chat with Angel, and was even willing to introduce "appraisers" to Angel and share his connections. This seemed to be somewhat different from the image in Klein's memory.

"Kewawu...Have you heard of the legend of the electronic ghost?"

Klein asked.

Angel shook his head. As a clerk, he was not interested in such Internet tales. The story of the electronic ghost was more widely spread among programmers.

Klein briefly introduced the relevant legends, but Angel was still a little skeptical. He was more inclined to believe that this was a hacker under the name of Electronic Ghost who was contacting him.

“Although I also believe that the person who contacted you is not a real electronic ghost, I still want to remind you.” Klein said seriously, “If you continue investigating, you will definitely come into contact with supernatural phenomena of varying degrees. You must be mentally prepared.”

The adventurer was somewhat dissatisfied with some of Angel's attitudes.

"Since you are ready to sacrifice everything, you must allow anything to happen."

Angel's expression changed, and finally he nodded.

Strong will can be described as perseverance at best and stubbornness at worst, and both forms are evident in Ingres.

That’s all I have to say. There is no point in saying more.

In Klein's intelligence network, the only person who had real contact with Kowawu was Geraldine. Klein felt that he still needed to do a double confirmation. Between divination and inquiry, he chose the latter and used the secret doll to send a message to Leonard to find Geraldine to verify whether this guy was the real Kowawu.

The name "Field Moretti" appeared on this Angell, and Klein believed that the blessing of this name was taking effect. By asking Geraldine, he could also indirectly inform Gloria about Angell's case.

Driven by this name, this senior deacon might play an unexpected role. But Klein didn't know what that role would be, so he could only wait and see.

Since this hacker is a fake Kowau, it is not ruled out that this person has ulterior motives in contacting Angel.

"I think this hacker contacted you for more than just a business purpose."

Klein pondered.

"We must be vigilant and not become its pawns, being led by the nose and doing something that you will regret for the rest of your life."

Angel drank his beer in silence. As the adventurer told his story, he realized that he had been rushing around recklessly for the past two years.

"Then if what you said is true, if those legendary miracles are not exclusive to gods, but are powers that mortals can touch..."

Angel carefully handed Klein a chip.

"So these traces... could they really be... related to those mysterious powers?"

Klein read the chip, which contained photos of all the building scars in the missing warehouse. He arranged them according to the spatial location, but found nothing. They seemed to be ordinary traces of construction and use.

...No...wait...

What if we change our perspective?

When we saw the name "Field Moretti", we assumed that Angell was of great importance to the case and would be related to us without knowing the truth. This is obviously a method of judgment based on a pattern and even specious reasoning.

So, what if this method is used... in this case?

Klein immediately reorganized these traces, no longer relying on space, but assuming several magic arrays in advance to piece them together.

It is no longer about using clues to infer results, but about using the results directly to forcibly organize the clues.

This absolutely goes against normal detective logic, but with the appearance of the indicator "Field Moretti", normal logical reasoning becomes meaningless.

After several attempts, Klein showed Angel several highly incomplete magic arrays.

"This is a ritual magic, but it is seriously incomplete. The user probably took away some of the objects engraved with the magic circle after the ritual. The remaining magic circle on the building may have been seriously displaced due to the effect of the ritual.

“Also, this array may have existed for a long time, and the effect of the passage of time may also be part of the magic of this ritual.

"No matter what, you should have contacted the Church of Evernight as soon as possible."

Ingres covered his face with his hands, looking ashen.

“No, since this matter involves mysterious forces, why didn’t Sivellaus contact the Church of Evernight back then?

"...Yes, those guys must be afraid of trouble. If they really contact the Church of Evernight to join, it will increase their workload...

"Damn it, if I had been...back then..."

The regret for his clumsiness in the past and the hesitation about the development of events at that time lingered in Angel's mind, causing his emotions to become extremely confused.

"No matter what happened, take care of the present first."

Klein held out his hand.

"Give me the identification sheet of the material composition."

In addition to the giant crocodile scale powder, Klein also found several animal products on the list.

Rorsted is also rich in biological resources, and these rare animals are also found there, which means that Bayam will never lack poachers.

Suspicion and speculation had already arisen, and Klein took immediate action.

Klein had expected that the divination at Cecilia's warehouse would not yield any valuable results. After all, the success rate of divinations not conducted in a safe house would be lower.

However, Klein was not without a solution. He directly divined the possible trading locations of the poachers and made a list of places where giant-tailed crocodile scale powder had been traded recently or would be traded in the near future - or near these places.

"Meradas Casino, Marigold Pier, and Ypsilon Hotel are the three places where there will be transactions involving the Light Scale Fantasy Giant Tailed Crocodile. It may have happened in the past, or it may be about to happen; it may be around a certain building, or it may be inside a certain building. For this matter, everything is possible."

Klein conjured three slips of paper out of thin air and handed them to Angel. Now it was time for field investigation. Angel drew a lot and placed it on the table.

“Meradas Casino.

"It's time to find out for myself."

Casinos are where church dealers hang out the most. Klein prefers this place. He hopes to have some contact with the Lost Church of the God of Confusion in the Meradas Casino and get in touch with their church dealers.

After explaining the relevant matters, Klein said goodbye and left. Angel stood up to see him off, but stopped with a "hiss".

“Ah, it’s okay, it’s just that although the winter in Bayam isn’t cold, the humidity here is too high.”

Ingres rubbed his knees, looking bitter.

"Arthritis is acting up."
