Mystery: Lucky One

Chapter 3 Chapter 3 People who can’t see

This is the first day that Alice officially begins her occult course.

"Good morning, Sister Roxanne!" She finally got rid of the annoying general education classes and no longer had to learn the troublesome Hermes and Ancient Hermes every day. She happily greeted Roxanne at the door, "You Have you seen the captain?"

"Good morning, Alice." Roxanne yawned. When she saw it was Alice, she responded with a smile, "The captain is in the office...ah, you look really energetic."

Alice doesn't come to the underground very often, or in other words, she has only been down there a few times in the past three years. In fact, she and Roxanne met by chance in the church - and then she was surprised to find that Roxanne was doing clerical work here.

"Because I'm very happy - I finally don't have to go to class! Oh no, I still have to take the occult course... but it must be different from the general class, and the damn Hermes and Ancient Hermes, yes Bar?"

Roxanne looked at Alice quite speechlessly. After becoming familiar with her, what Roxanne heard most from Alice was complaints about learning the language. It can be seen that Alice is really not good at learning languages.

Alice, who did not receive confirmation, retracted her pleading eyes in disappointment, and let out a long sigh, pretending to be sad - and then she couldn't help but laugh in the middle of the sigh.

"Okay, I'm going to find the captain, Sister Luo Shan, bye~"

"Bye-Bye……"

Roxanne's feeble response came from behind, and Alice did not look back. She knew that Roxanne would make a cup of coffee next, and then...

In a flash, Alice saw a vague male figure in formal clothes pushing the door open and walking in. Roxanne was making coffee. She heard the man greeting Roxanne - "Good morning, Miss Roxanne."

Alice blinked and the screen disappeared. As if she hadn't seen anything, she knocked on the door of the office of Dunn Smith, the gray-eyed police officer she first met.

"Come in." Dunn's voice and tone were low and gentle.

Alice pushed the door open and walked in. Dunn was sitting at the table. Alice could clearly see that Dunn's body was covered with a deep, rich black, as if it was about to engulf him. She knew it was a harbinger of death.

Alice smiled nonchalantly, as bright and cheerful as she did in front of Roxanne. She met Dunn's deep eyes with a smile. Just when she was about to speak, a picture suddenly appeared.

The man with a vague face just now stood in front of the desk, and she heard a solemn response - "Yes, I have made a choice."

...But, why is his face blurry when he appears twice?
After waiting for the scene to disappear, Alice stopped her smile and said to Dunn: "Captain, do you have any other guests this morning?"

"...Did you see it?" Seeing Alice's sudden change in expression, Dunn, who understood the characteristics of the monster's path, realized something.

"Um...I can..." Alice frowned to formulate her words, "Can I come back to you later?"

"why?"

"Maybe I shouldn't see him."

"...a revelation?"

"I'm not sure, I..."

"Tuk, duh." A gentle knock on the door came, and Alice closed her eyes subconsciously.

Dunn frowned and glanced at Alice, who had her eyes closed, and then said, "Come in." Alice heard footsteps approaching her, and then a suspicious gaze fell on her body - and her spiritual premonition, He was screaming not to open his eyes.

The insubstantial noise gave Alice a headache. She moved a few steps to her side, held onto the wall, and stretched out her hands to rub her temples.

"Now I know for sure that I really can't see him - or I might die."

Dunn looked at this scene with some surprise. He didn't know what kind of guess he made. In short, he introduced the two people.

"This is Crane Moretti, he's the most recent civilian addition, remember?"

Alice nodded.

"This is Alice Kingsley, a lucky one. Roxanne was supposed to have told you about her?"

"...Is she the one, the 'lucky one'?"

"Am I so famous?"

Even though Alice closed her eyes and didn't dare to look at him, Klein could hear the liveliness and curiosity in Alice's tone. It wasn't until Dunn knocked on the table twice as a warning that Alice restrained herself and returned to the weak posture of holding her head.

"I originally wanted you to go find Old Neil together...Okay," Dunn looked at this scene and sighed helplessly, "Alice, you go back first...come back in the afternoon."

"Okay!" Alice turned around quickly and walked away as if she was afraid that Dunn would regret it. At the same time, after passing the source of her sight, she opened her eyes.

"Cline Moretti...I always feel like I've heard this name somewhere else..." This whisper that everyone could hear made the other two people present hesitate to speak - but they soon stopped. Need to worry.

Alice's movements paused again, and Bai Wu, whom she hadn't seen for three years, strangely reappeared. In front of her was still the girl holding her arm and talking.

But this time the girl's voice was not clear. She could only see the girl's lips opening and closing, and then she could make out an unclear name among the chaotic murmurs.

"Zhou, Ming, Rui."

"boom--!"

The loud noise woke Alice up, and the insane scream prevented her from turning back at first. She heard a still-shocked Chinese voice coming from behind her: "You...?"

That seemed to contain a lot of questions, and the forced stop made Alice realize that this person might have heard of that name.

Even just one word of that well-spoken Chinese character is enough to be evidence in Alice's eyes. Maybe for others, it's hard to tell whether it's Chinese because there's only one word, but Alice's intuition has already figured it out in advance. The answer was told to her.

For Alice, she currently has three main goals - one is to find Huanhuan's past, the other is to find her own past, and the third is to find the sender of the gift.

The discovery that this involved one of the main objectives certainly merited her response. So Alice closed her eyes, turned her body in the direction of the sound, and responded in Runeese: "Maybe I should invite you to lunch, even if eating with your eyes closed is not a good idea... I mean, you can Find me in church.”

Then, she turned around and left, not caring at all how much trouble what happened just now would cause to Klein—of course she would leave explaining such troublesome matters to Dunn to others.
