There was danger, but not high, nor low... This meant that Mrs. Sharon was still in the house and had not fled... Klein was stunned for a moment, then he understood the reason: He had used the method of "summoning" himself to transform into a rather peculiar spirit to search the safe and the hidden compartment inside it. He had not forcibly opened the lock or triggered any hidden mechanical devices or anything else, so it was normal that Mrs. Sharon had not noticed that the secret had been discovered. She would only think that some thief had broken in to steal or that some private detective had been hired to investigate but had found nothing. Under these circumstances, it was reasonable and logical for her to remain in the house without being overly vigilant. Reacting too hastily and giving an over-the-top response was not like the Mrs. Sharon Klein knew. She was a courtesan who could calmly pretend to be frightened and pitiful, and she was a member of the Hermetic Order who had hidden her extraordinary identity for many years. If the telephone had already been invented, Mrs. Sharon would surely have called one of her lovers to complain about the security situation in Tingen and subtly imply that it was Mrs. Maynard... Klein imagined a scene and told Dunn and Cohen-Li about his divination results and guesses. "This is the most realistic deduction," Dunn pressed down his half-high silk hat and looked at Mrs. Sharon's two-story house with his gray eyes, "Let's not rush in." "Why?" Cohen-Li, who was holding the Sealed Object "3-0217", asked subconsciously. He was very afraid of the "Medium Mirror" in his hand and always worried that something unexpected might happen to this Sealed Object. Dunn put on his black gloves and looked at Klein, saying: "Do you remember the incident of capturing 'the Inciter' Triss?" "Remember," Klein thought for a few seconds and said, "It seemed that she had detected our approach in advance and thus managed to escape in time." I still remember when I answered the captain's question after the incident, I proposed the plan of covering the area with fire. That was the safest and most reliable method, but it won't work this time. We can't use it because there are still many innocent servants in Mrs. Sharon's house... If we notify them in advance and let them evacuate in time, it will surely alert Mrs. Sharon. And according to Leonard, Triss could become invisible, so we must assume that Mrs. Sharon also has a similar extraordinary ability... Klein thought of many things at once. Dunn looked up at the crimson moon in the sky and said: "Very good, your answer is very good. Your intuition in this situation is quite sharp." "We can't approach rashly and alert Mrs. Sharon. I'll try to drag her into a dream from a distance. If it succeeds, you and Cohen-Li go in and subdue her. Um... You can decide whether to kill her or not. If you can't control her, eliminate her. Your own safety is the most important thing." Captain, your thinking is always so clear at critical moments! I was waiting for you to say this! Klein praised him in his heart. During the two months they had spent together, he had more or less figured out the characteristics of each of Dunn, Leonard, and Fry's extraordinary abilities through casual conversations. Among them, as a "Nightmare", Dunn Smith could freely enter the dreams of every sleeping person in Tingen within his home or the Black Thorn Security Company. How exactly this was done involved the secrets of their respective sequences, so Klein didn't inquire further. As for the situation of directly dragging someone into a dream, there were range limitations and it usually only occurred in direct confrontations. But Klein had heard the captain mention that it wasn't necessary to be face-to-face to attempt this extraordinary ability. Within a hundred meters, it could still have some effect, but it required time and a process and couldn't be done in an instant, just like lulling a child to sleep. At this moment, Dunn was about to "remotely" lull Mrs. Sharon into a dream bit by bit, achieving initial control and creating the best situation for Klein and Cohen. "Good." Cohen also agreed with the captain's plan. Without further ado, Dunn leaned against a corner, closed his eyes, clenched his hands, and lowered his head. His black knee-length windbreaker and half-high silk top hat seemed to blend into the night. ... In the luxurious and sumptuous bedroom, Mrs. Sharon lay on a comfortable rocking chair, completely naked, her fair and outstanding figure exposed to the air. She would sometimes turn her head to the full-length mirror and admire her own seductive self. As she gazed, her cheeks turned rosy, and her eyes seemed to be brimming with tears, her expression dazed yet strangely tender. On the table beside her was the white bone idol, and her thick, snake-like hair seemed to soften in the warm light and pink atmosphere. Gradually, Mrs. Sharon looked at the full-length mirror less and less frequently, her head nodding, and her eyelids drooping uncontrollably. ... As time passed by second by second, Klein suddenly thought of something. That was, after the captain dragged Mrs. Sharon into the dream, how could he be informed in time and how could he inform Cohen Li? As long as he got out of the "nightmare" state, Mrs. Sharon would wake up and be alert that something was happening... He wondered if the captain could give them signals while dreaming. Klein looked at Cohen Li, who was pacing back and forth and not calm, and planned to discuss this matter with him to divert his attention. Just then, his mind suddenly became hazy. He saw a huge crimson moon, saw Captain Dunn Smith in a black knee-length windbreaker below the moon, and saw Cohen Li, who was dazed and short. Klein suddenly realized that he was dreaming! I was dragged into the dream by the captain... So this is how we can be informed... He wanted to cover his face, but he could only remain in a dazed and confused dreamwalking state and said stupidly: "Captain?" Dunn nodded slightly and said: "Mrs. Sharon has entered the dream. You can act now." After saying that, he emphasized again: "Remember, you must be careful enough. Don't be rash... It's better to miss than to take risks." As soon as he finished speaking, what Klein saw in front of him shattered piece by piece, and his vision once again showed Dunn Smith, who was leaning against the corner, burying his head and tightly holding his fists. On the other side, Cohen Li, who had stopped pacing at some point, also opened his eyes. The two looked at each other, nodded to each other, and simultaneously entered the state of carrying out the mission. Although this was the first time Cohen Li had encountered a relatively dangerous mission, compared to Klein, he was still more experienced and had participated in many formal operations. He quickly adjusted himself and became calm and sharp. Of course, this was also due to the bonus effect of the night on the "Sleepless Ones", which was one of the reasons why Dunn chose Cohen Li instead of Fry to come along. "Let's go." As the 8th sequence, Klein took the lead and signaled his teammate to follow him. Cohen Li didn't object. He firmly held the mirror wrapped in thick black cloth, walked lightly, and began to follow. Klein led him to the previous wall-climbing position, stretched out his hands, grabbed the gaps and protrusions, and climbed to the top of the wall in just a few moves. He maintained an exaggerated balance, turned his body, bent over, and firmly caught the "Medium's Mirror" that Cohen Li threw up. As soon as he touched it, Klein's inspiration tightened suddenly, as if the black cloth inside was not a mirror but a door leading to a dangerous and strange world. Sure enough, every magical item that needs to be sealed has a sinister side... Klein sighed to himself and watched as Cohen Li climbed up using his hands and feet. To facilitate the operation, Cohen Li placed his cane beside Dunn, and Klein didn't dwell on this. They crossed the garden and reached the side of the house. Just like before, Klein climbed up to the second-floor balcony along the water pipe. Then, almost instinctively, he hung his feet and turned upside down, catching the sealed object "3-0271" once again. Cohen Li looked at him with a hint of surprise, then nodded in understanding. At this moment, Klein himself was startled. He used his waist and back to push off, and with his left hand, he easily flipped back up. "What just happened? Why could I make such a move? It felt like an instinct... Could this be the ability of the "Jester"? " He reflected on what had just happened and felt that in practice, he had better demonstrated the characteristics of the "Jester". When Cohen Li also climbed up easily, Klein returned the "Medium's Mirror" to him and pulled open the unlocked balcony door. Cohen Li carefully untied the black cloth wrapped around the sealed object "3-0271", placing it mirror-side down on the floor tiles. One of the rules for using the "Seer's Mirror" is not to aim it at oneself or one's teammates! Cohen Li followed Klein, stuffing a black cloth into his pocket and pulling out his revolver. They moved silently down the corridor and reached Mrs. Sharon's bedroom door. Klein held the revolver with the cylinder adjusted, activating his Spirit Vision and reaching out with his left hand to grasp the doorknob. He remembered the previous divination result indicating danger, so he was extremely cautious. The reason he didn't do a quick divination on the spot was that he knew there was that strange primordial goddess statue inside the room. At such a close distance, he would definitely be disturbed and couldn't get a correct and clear answer without the barrier of the gray fog. Moreover, Cohen Li was right beside him, preventing him from entering that mysterious space. The door creaked open silently, and the warm glow of the gas lamp filled Klein and Cohen Li's eyes. Then, they saw Mrs. Sharon on the chaise longue, her alluring figure exposed. Mrs. Sharon wasn't asleep. She was leaning there, a slight smile on her lips, looking at the two unexpected visitors. Subconsciously, Cohen Li turned his palm over and aimed the "Seer's Mirror" at Mrs. Sharon. Klein was taken aback for a moment and then blurted out: "Don't!" He clearly remembered that there should have been a full-length mirror on the other side of the chaise longue, but now he didn't see it! In the blink of an eye, the "Seer's Mirror" had locked onto Mrs. Sharon. But the Mrs. Sharon in the mirror suddenly became blurry and transformed into a full-length mirror. Cohen Li saw himself in the mirror and also saw the Sealed Artifact "3-0271" reflecting him. A figure instantly emerged within the "Seer's Mirror", it was the expressionless and coldly silent Cohen Li himself! At the same time, Klein's hands and feet tightened as if bound by countless invisible threads. The elegant outline of Mrs. Sharon in her nightgown gradually emerged beside the full-length mirror. She glanced at the two of them and said with a light laugh: "If it weren't for the statue being right beside me, I would still be asleep, waiting for you to kiss me awake." Just then, Klein suddenly spoke in a low voice, uttering a word in Ancient Hermes: "Crimson!" His left hand, which he had slipped into his pocket at some point, moved nimbly, and he gently pushed out the "Sleeping Spell".
