The familiar mockery and the expression without any emptiness made Jane immediately understand that this Ciel was real.
"Oh! Can't you speak properly?" Jian Na waved the rag in her hand and cursed.
Lumian closed the door with his backhand and said with a smile:
"I'm quite energetic, I'm not afraid to cry."
Jane cautiously looked back out the window, confirming that the figures emitting the glimmer were long gone.
She resisted the urge to scold Lumian and asked without wasting any time:
"Why did you come in too?"
While speaking, she kept telling herself in her heart:
As an adult woman with rich life experience and many setbacks, she cannot argue with such an immature minor at such a critical time!
Lumian's gaze swept over Franka, who was tasting red wine at the window, sat down on the sofa, leaned back comfortably, and said:
"Let's talk about how you got in first."
To be honest, he didn't know why he suddenly came to this strange place where the "hostel" was located.
Jane Na still stood by the coffee table, making sure she could enter the dummy state at any time.
She completely recounted how she was inspired by a dream to deliver mission items underground and obtain lucky gold coins.
Lumian didn't interrupt, listened intently, and laughed:
"Now I can answer your question.
"I was sent here by Mr. 'Fool' to save you."
He probably understood the reason why he appeared in room 207 of the fake Golden Rooster Hotel after waking up.
"Is it really Mr. 'Fool' who sent you? I don't even know Him, His complete name, just holding a lucky gold coin, and praying for success?" Although Jane Na had been so suspicious before, it didn't prevent her from still feeling incredible.
"Of course it's true." Lumian was very sincere.
What he is currently wondering about is another thing:
Why did Mr. "Fool" send himself and not Ms. "Magician"?
If it was the "magician" lady who was pulled into the "hostel", then the problem has been easily solved!
This can be explained by the fact that he has the seal of the "Fool" on him, but Ms. "Magician" is a major arcana card and can participate in the core members of the "Tarot Society" who can participate in the pre-god meeting.
I'm afraid there is something else I don't understand...... Lumian thought for a moment, focusing his attention on Jenna's description of the world.
He asked in confirmation.
"From the outside, the only difference between this place and reality is the Breeze Ballroom?"
Previously, Saffari and Gabriel only mentioned that there was a black hole on Market Avenue, through which there was hope to leave, but it was also very dangerous, and did not specify where it was.
"I only explored a few nearby streets and less than a fifth of the market avenue." Jane replied very cautiously, lest Ciel misjudge.
She then said:
"And there are many differences inside, like here, just the room layout, large furniture and reality, and other details are different.
"I doubt, I doubt ......."
Lumian looked at Jane Na and said before her:
"The world in the painting."
"Yes, the world in the painting!" Jane finally made that vague idea clear.
Combining the "Painter" sequence with the paints and brushes she found from the mutant monks, she felt that this was an oil painting that only copied some streets of the market area and had some supernatural powers, called "Hostel"!
This made Jane both worried and worried, and she felt very magical.
Drawing a picture is like creating a world!
"I'm glad you also have this understanding, it's not easy." Lumian teased and said, "The world in this painting is not high-end, and the oil painting created by the angel of the 'painter' path may really be a world with living beings."
Unlike the current one, many places are fake.
And what purpose does such a painting that is not too high-level want to achieve?
Without waiting for Jane to respond, Lumian instructed her:
"Go and touch that Franka's hidden bag to see if there is a classical silver mirror."
"Why don't you search for it yourself? You know better than me what that ancient mirror looks like." Jian Na suddenly laughed softly, "Isn't it shy?"
Lumian said with an indifferent face:
"If you're not here, then I'll search it myself, but since I can tell you, why should I work myself?"
Jane grinded her teeth, not daring to waste time, and walked to the window and flipped through the different pockets of the fake Franka.
She quickly came to a conclusion:
"Without ancient mirrors, many hidden pockets have not been painted."
Lumian nodded slowly, crossing out Plan 7 in his mind.
He turned to Janna and said:
"Try the 'Magic Mirror Divination' to see if it can be successful."
Knowing that Lumian wanted to confirm whether the world in the painting was connected to the spirit world, so as to judge whether his "teleportation" could succeed and help the two get out of here, she took out a makeup mirror from her hidden pocket and prayed to one of the safer people Franca had given her.
Not long after, the pre-completion of the "Magic Mirror Divination" was completed, and the palm-sized mirror became gray, but there was no water.
"Failed, but there was a bit of extraordinary phenomenon." Jian Na said with a slight confusion.
Lumian nodded lightly and said:
"It should be that there is a false spirit world here, if you turn on the 'spiritual vision', you may be able to see a few remnant souls, but this is not connected to the real spirit world, so you can't find the existence you are trying to ask."
That is, he can "teleport" within the world of the painting, but cannot leave here.
Lumian reached into his pocket, took out Mr. K's finger, and threw it in front of his eyes.
There was no reaction and no change in the slightest.
"What is this?" Jane was startled.
Ciel actually carried a blood-stained human finger with him!
"A magical item that I couldn't get in touch with the outside world." Lumian explained perfunctorily.
At the same time, he sighed in his heart:
Mr. K's fingers seem beautiful, but they always fail to play a complete role.
Most of the time, Lumian doesn't need it, and when he needs it, he often has a special environment and can't use the connection between it and the main body to summon Mr. K. over.
Jian Na didn't ask, pursed her lips and said:
"What next?"
She really couldn't think of any other way out of here, so she could only consider the situation of the black hole in the Breeze Ballroom, the edge of the world in the painting, and the two fake churches.
Lumian smiled:
"Don't worry, I still have five, six, seven, or eight plans that I haven't tried.
"But before we can try them, we need to go to Market Avenue and get a closer look at the black hole in Breeze Hall."
"Where do you want to leave?" Jian Na frowned and asked.
That would seem dangerous.
"This is the last choice, but it is also a necessary preparation, I don't want to try other plans here without success, be discovered by the fairies, blocked by the tenants of the 'hostel', want to fight, but can't get close to the Breeze Ballroom." Lumian stood up and walked to the door of Apartment 601.
Jian Na looked out the window again, only to see that the sun was in the west, and the servants of the elves had not returned.
She quickly followed Lumian down the stairs.
On the way, she asked inquisitively:
"What are those evil god believers doing in such a pictured world to hide the guests of the 'hostel'?"
Lumian replied thoughtfully:
"I think it's an incidental purpose, and overall, it's more of a ritual.
"Think about it, this is like a fake market area, there should be only one place like Breeze Ballroom left uncorresponding, and I told you before that there are old bones from the Quaternary period underground in the ground of Breeze Ballroom, which is secretly related to the old cemetery of St. Robles Church.
"I also think that's the core of the problem." Jane instinctively wanted to prove that she was not stupid and had similar guesses.
Lumian said while thinking as he went down:
"When the mutation really happens, is it possible that such a picture-painted world will temporarily replace some streets in the market area of reality, and only the Breeze Dance Hall will remain the same?
"This is to confuse whom and what is confused......
"In the occult, this represents the application of the 'law of similarity', which is similar to a certain extent, and the operation of fakes can reflect reality......
"Wouldn't they want to solve the secrets of the underground of the Breeze Ballroom and find those old bones of the Quaternary Age?
"No, it shouldn't just be for the old bones...... Do they want to open the entrance to Trier in the Quaternary Age?
"It's not that simple, the entire sealing system has not been destroyed or weakened yet......"
Lumian gradually had an idea, feeling that he was getting closer and closer to the core plan of this disaster.
If he can finally grasp the truth, it will be an excellent example of the "conspirator's" ability to see insight.
Jane Na nodded slightly when she heard this, thinking that Lumian's guess was very reasonable.
The two exchanged fake White Jacket Street No. 3, and their eyes suddenly froze.
On the diagonally opposite road, a woman wearing a loose white dress with suspender straps was looking at them!
The woman had a beautiful face, slightly curly black hair draped over her shoulders, and her blue eyes were quite empty, and her whole person was both detached and real.
A similar temperament, a similar feeling, Lumian and Jane had seen it in another person.
That is mannequin Saffari, room 12 of the "hostel"!
This is another room in the "hostel", another mannequin? Why did she appear here, like waiting for me and Jane? Lumian's spirit instantly tightened, and he instinctively reached out his right hand and grabbed Jana's shoulder.
At the same time, the woman with a beautiful face laughed in a wandering voice:
"Fate destined us to meet.
"Aggregation always happens inadvertently."
