Mystery: I can change things in books

Chapter 256 Return to the Club

Chris's steps became more brisk, and before he knew it, he had reached Halls Block and was near the Divination Club.

Walking on the familiar streets, he followed his memory and walked into the Divination Club.

It is now Friday morning, and there are fewer people in the divination club than on weekends, but not too few.

Angelica was busy copying customer information, when she heard footsteps outside the door, she glanced up at Chris and asked:

"Sir, are you here for fortune telling? Or do you want to join the club?"

Chris knew that his appearance had returned to before, and before that he talked to Angelica with the appearance of "Graxel Mir", it was normal for her not to recognize him.

He thought about it and asked:
"I want to divination."

Upon hearing that the other party wanted to divine, Angelica immediately opened the roster on the table, looked at it, and said:
"Today, Friday, there are quite a lot of people in the club. Well... there are now Mr. Quinlan Dempsey, Ms. Lori Rooney, Ms. Ava Ferrante and Mr. Franco Bain in the club. Mr. Edward Steve and Mr. Glacis, six fortune-tellers in total. Which fortune-teller are you familiar with?"

Glacis?Is he still in the divination club?Even after Heinus Vincent died and Klein didn't come for a long time, he still insisted on doing divination here...

Oh, by the way, he was defrauded of 50 pounds by Lanerwus, so it’s normal to make extra money here to make up for the loss...

But why didn't you listen to Klein's advice?

Chris cursed.

Seeing that the other party didn't speak, Angelica reminded:
“If you don’t know who to talk to, I can recommend one or two to you.”

Chris smiled and nodded and said:

"I want to ask Mr. Glacis for a divination. By the way, has Mrs. Christina been here recently?"

"Christina……"

Angelica looked down at the record book. After a while, she shook her head and said:

"Mrs. Christina hasn't been here for a long time."

"Which fortune teller did she like to find for fortune telling before?" Chris asked.

"Mr. Klein Moretti." Angelica gave the answer immediately without thinking.

But with a look of disappointment on her face, she quickly added:
"But Mr. Klein hasn't come to the Divination Club for a long time."

Of course, Klein had already finished digesting the "Soothsayer" potion.

Chris smiled secretly and said nothing.

"Then let me take you to Mr. Glacis. He is in the conference room."

Angelica left the front desk and walked in front of Chris to lead the way.

Chris followed her through a short corridor, opened the door, and entered the conference room.

The conference room is large, the same size as the largest lecture hall at Hoy University, but without the slope.

At this time, there were more than a dozen people in the conference room. They were in groups, sitting in different positions, chatting quietly.

It's a bit deserted...

Chris said silently, there are fewer people in the conference room now than on weekends. It's not like weekends when dozens of people are crowded here, just like in a vegetable market.

"You sit here for a while, and I'll call Mr. Glacis."

Angelica pointed to the table next to her, and then walked towards a group of people.

She walked over and said something, and among the crowd, a man with a dark complexion wearing a white shirt and a black vest stood up and walked towards here.

Chris raised his left eyebrow slightly and turned on his spiritual vision, observing Gracis.

There is no major problem with his lungs, but his mood is dark, and it seems that he is still worried about being deceived by Lanerus...

No, I came to him for "divination", but now I'm observing him...

Chris smiled and shook his head, and Glacis had already walked in front of him.

"Sir, do you need me to divine for you?" Glacis looked serious.

Chris nodded: "Yes. How about we go to the topaz room?" Hearing this, Glacis was a little surprised, because he had never met Chris before, and the other party knew the 'topitrine' room, which meant he was right. The club has a certain understanding.

He also realized that Chris was not someone who knew nothing about divination.

Gracis came back to his senses and said:

"Okay, please come with me."

He walked ahead and entered the "Topaz" room first.

"So you've been to the club before..." Angelica chuckled.

Chris nodded with a smile, but did not answer.

The light in the "citrine" room is very dim, and the curtains have occult patterns.

On the table were two tarot cards, a star map, and other small items related to divination.

Glacis crossed the long table and sat at the back, crossing his hands:
"Sir, I don't know your name yet."

A pair of monocles hung on his chest, and Chris's heart throbbed as he looked at it.

It's just a coincidence, the monocle is not exclusive to that existence...

Chris thought to himself, calmed down, and said:

"You don't need to know my name."

"Sir, this is how divination works. First of all, you have to..."

Chris waved his hand to interrupt Gracis, took out the triangular badge symbolizing "Machine Heart" from his pocket, and placed it on the table.

"This is……"

Glacis didn't know why: "Are you a steam believer?"

Chris crossed his arms and said in a higher tone:

"Have you been defrauded of money by a man named Lanerwus before?"

"Yes!" Glacis suddenly left his identity as a "divineer" and continued excitedly, "Can you help me get the money back?"

Glacis asked because he knew Chris was not a victim of fraud.

With this attitude, if I asked him to give me twenty pounds to help him get back the money he was defrauded, he would believe it, right?

Moreover, two months later, he is still so excited. It seems that the 50 pounds he was defrauded is indeed very important to him...

Due to his own special circumstances, Chris does not have a very real understanding of money.

After all, he was almost never short of money.

"It might be difficult to get it back, and that's not why I came to you this time," Chris said, "Do you know someone named Christina?"

Glacis nodded:
"Yes, she also believes in the God of Steam and Machinery... Wait, are you looking for me to look for her?"

"That's right," Chris said.

He took out a 10-pound note from his pocket, put it on the table, and then said:

"Tell me where Christina lives and you can get the ten pounds."

Gracis's breathing gradually became heavier. He stared at the banknotes on the table. After a long time, he raised his head and asked solemnly:
"who are you?"

"Secret Police." Chris babbled.

Thinking that Glacis didn't know the existence of the extraordinary world, and he couldn't directly say that he was a "mechanical heart", he might not even know what it was.

Glacis looked at him suspiciously.

"You have to believe me," Chris shrugged, "I have something important to do with Christina."

He said and pushed the banknotes forward. Glacis hesitated for a long time, finally took the money and put it in his pocket.
