Mystery: Lucky One

Chapter 157 Chapter 31 “A particularly lucky moment”

Alice suddenly woke up.

Without time to think about it, she almost instinctively struggled to get out of the dream.

The priest did not stop her, but kept looking in her direction with a gentle smile until the whole dream was shattered into pieces.

In the dark bedroom, Alice suddenly sat up from the bed, covering her chest to calm her breathing.

...damn it!
Is it possible to discover prophetic dreams?

I don't know how much time passed before Alice got up from the bed, put on her clothes, turned on the light, and recalled the details of her dream.

First of all, the location must be in Backlund... Judging from the economic situation of the last people and the surrounding buildings and streets, it should be in the East District.

...A heavy fog brought a plague?

So, the woman in the center of the fog is the source of the fog?
Alice couldn't see the lady clearly in her dream, but just because of spreading the plague, she naturally thought of the witch.

Alice blinked blankly, but the exchange with Amon suddenly came to mind.

Alice murmured, recalling the last scene of her dream again.

This really fits the stereotype of the witch left for her.

The priest, who looked extremely ordinary, seemed to be the most dazzling presence, fixing her eyes firmly on him.

Alice murmured, thinking of the two gods symbolized by the cross.

It was only now, when Alice wanted to recall the furnishings in the room, that she realized that this part of her memory was blank.

But what does the priest at the end represent?

One is the evil god believed in by the now well-known terrorist organization Aurora Club, the "True Creator".

The nameless "writer" and the ordinary priest who seemed to have focused all the attention completely overlapped at this moment.

"Adam?" Alice seemed to be talking to herself, but also seemed to be asking, and she glanced around the room blankly.

"No, no, I overlooked one thing..."

"Interesting idea, but not something a 'writer' would have."

"If I were a 'writer'..."

Is this part of the revelation?

Very good, it looks like no one is hiding in the air just yet...

"cross……"

Alice comforted herself, turned off the light, took off her clothes, got into the quilt and continued to sleep.

Alice sat upright suddenly.

Everything is silent, including spirituality.

"Leaving traces deliberately is something only a 'provocateur' would do."

One is Amon's father, the ancient sun god, the "god" who is also suspected to come from before the first era.

……

In the early morning, Alice poked her head out of the quilt sleepily, and then retracted into the quilt because of the cold air.

"It's getting colder and colder..." Alice muttered and stretched out an arm to fumble, trying to stuff her clothes into the quilt and warm them up before wearing them.

…Next time, let’s put it in before going to bed.

Alice thought as she felt the temperature of her bed getting lower and lower, and then painfully started to get up.

After taking out the newspapers and letters from the mailbox, Alice fell into deep thought.

Evelin's letter didn't surprise her. Alice would be surprised if she didn't receive Evelin's letter one day, but...why does this Gray Linte hold banquets every day?

Alice was so shocked that she threw the invitation aside and read the newspaper while eating breakfast.

Go to church, come back and draw the manuscript, eat after drawing... wait a minute. Layers of gray fog appeared in front of Alice, and she heard Klein's voice:

"'The Hanged Man' has found you a buyer for the 'Accessories for Fortune'.

"Your supporting materials are also ready."

"!" Alice suddenly became energetic.

It should be a joy to have two recent major events being resolved, but Alice is quickly reminded of a disturbing anomaly in her recent "wealth accessories."

Do you really want to sell it?
Alice took out the "getting rich accessories" that she had thrown into the drawer out of anger yesterday, tilted her head and said, "I found the seller."

There’s still no movement on “Accessories for Fortune”.

Alice thought about it seriously, and then remembered the 200 pounds she owed Klein.

Uh, forget it, sell it first.

Alice happily made up her mind and sacrificed the "wealth accessory" to the courier Mr. Fool.

"It shouldn't have anything to do with me if it's sold..." Alice muttered to herself, tidied up the scene, and then made a move, "Wait a minute, why don't I just change it to a ritual of asking for a gift?"

She looked blankly at the room that had been tidied up, closed her eyes, and felt the spiritual touch.

She is clearly in a "lucky enough moment" and has always been in a "lucky enough moment".

So why?

Alice blinked blankly, familiar memories dancing before her eyes.

She was sitting in front of a square table with a pair of mahjong in front of it.

Lanterns, Spring Festival couplets, dumplings...it's New Year!
Alice suddenly realized her situation. She saw her shuffling the cards with three people whose faces they couldn't see clearly, grabbing cards, and starting the first game of mahjong.

There is no doubt that she won, touching herself.

Then she became the bookmaker.

In the second game, she touched herself again without question.

Hmm...that's normal...

In the third game, she continued to sit on the bank and then touched herself...

The fourth game, the fifth game, the sixth game...

Seeing herself playing twelve games quickly in her memory, Alice was already lost in thought.

ah? no? Wait a minute?
In this case, she and Amon were cheating when playing cards...

Alice watched blankly as she finished drawing the cards in the picture, and then fell into deep thought.

No, wait, this seems to be... Tianhu! Note①

Sure enough, Alice heard herself say cautiously: "Um, I, I seem to be confused..."

She saw that she had knocked down the cards, and what followed was like the most common story. Some people came to check her cards in disbelief, trying to find faults in them. Some people lamented her luck, shook their heads and started shuffling the cards, and others... …

Someone else kicked her off the table.

...This man can’t afford to lose!
Alice withdrew from her memory blankly and said thoughtfully:
"In other words, although I have been in a 'lucky enough moment', can I wait for a 'particularly lucky moment'?
"So, when is this 'particularly lucky moment'?"

——The answer seems obvious.

Even if the relationship between Adam and the plague is uncertain, we can judge from the scope of the plague that the plague was definitely not simple.

Alice could almost conclude that that "particularly lucky moment" was inseparable from the plague.

Alice's first idea was to discuss it with Klein.

"But if you tell Klein, he will want to stop this plague, right?"
