Seeing Klein's astonished expression, Angelica suddenly felt a bit unsure:
"Not really? Mr. Grassis said that you could tell he had hidden illness in his lungs just by observing him..."
She spoke more and more softly, eventually closing her mouth.
Observation? Dark eyebrows? Klein suddenly understood and shook his head with a wry smile:
"I think Mr. Grassis misunderstood."
He had intended to just say this and move on, but suddenly thought that yesterday afternoon no one had asked him for a divination, which made the process of playing the "diviner" very unsuccessful. So his mind raced and he slightly explained:
"This is actually a form of divination."
"Divination? But Mr. Grassis only mentioned that you observed his face, could this also be considered divination?" Angelica asked again, surprised and puzzled.
Klein smiled calmly:
"As a member of the Divination Club, you should know about palm reading, right?"
Palm reading is not exclusive to the Big Food Empire. Even on Earth, India and old Europe have developed their own theories, not to mention that it's a world with extraordinary power now.
"Know it, but... you didn't show it to him? You secretly observed him?" Angelica asked curiously.
"I observed his face," Klein lied, "Its principle is not fundamentally different from palm reading."
"Really?" Angelica's eyes were filled with disbelief.
For the development of his "diviner" career, Klein chuckled and pretended to be thinking, raising his hand and tapping his brow twice.
Looking intently, Angelica's aura appeared in his eyes. Her head was purple, her hands and feet were red, and her throat was blue... There was no problem with her health, but the colors were slightly dim. This was a normal state of fatigue.
Looking at the other person's emotions, he saw that the orange was mixed with a little red and blue, that is, warmth with a bit of excitement and a bit of thinking.
Fortunately... Discovering this normal situation without any abnormalities, Klein intended to turn off his clairvoyance. Just then, he suddenly saw a deep, thick darkness hidden in the color of Angelica's emotions.
"And she also lacks a little bit of positive white... " Klein thought to himself with a thoughtful nod.
"Mr. Moretti, are you looking at my face?" Seeing the young gentleman in black formal attire suddenly become silent and carefully examine himself, Angelica sensed something and asked half curiously and half worriedly.
Klein didn't answer immediately and tapped his brow again, looking at it with concentration.
Just as Angelica felt uneasy, he gently spoke:
"Ms. Angelica, there are some sadness and some pain. Don't seal them inside your heart."
Angelica's eyes widened suddenly, her mouth opened, but she couldn't say anything.
Looking at Klein, who wore a half-high hat with a distinct scholarly air, and hearing him say in a low, soothing, and warm voice:
"You need a mountain climbing, a tennis match, or a sad drama. Let your body get tired from exercise, let your tears flow without being concealed, then cry, shout, and completely release those emotions."
"This is also very helpful for your physical health."
The words were so soothing that Angelica seemed to become a statue, standing there motionless.
She blinked hard, lowered her head in a panic, and muttered:
"Thank you for your advice..."
"Today seems to have many members?" Klein didn't say more. Just like he hadn't done any divination earlier, he turned sideways and looked towards the meeting room at the end of the corridor.
"Sunday afternoon... At least 50 members..." Angelica's voice was still a little hoarse, and her description was just a few key words.
She paused, and her speaking speed gradually returned to normal:
"Do you want black tea or coffee?"
"Turkish black tea." Klein nodded slightly, took off his hat politely, and then slowly walked towards the meeting room. It was not until he disappeared behind the door that Angelica slowly let out a breath. ......
The meeting room of the Divination Club was very large, almost twice the size of a classroom at Klein High School.
Usually, there were only five or six members here, making it very empty. At this moment, dozens of "diviners" were sitting in groups at various positions, filling up most of the space.
Sunlight streamed in through several convex windows. The members were either whispering to each other, or gathering around Harnas Vanzant to ask questions, or concentrating on practicing and attempting divination, or simply drinking coffee and reading newspapers.
This scene reminded Klein of his student days on Earth, only then was it more lively and noisy, without this sense of tranquility.
He looked around but didn't see Grassis and Edward Steve, so he casually took a public divination textbook and found a corner to leisurely flip through it.
After a while, Angelica came in with a cup of black tea and placed it on the table in front of Klein.
She was about to leave quietly when she suddenly saw Mr. Moretti unfastening a uniquely shaped silver chain from the inside of his left sleeve, with a pure yellow crystal hanging from it.
What is he going to do? Angelica unconsciously slowed down and gazed at Klein.
Klein held the silver chain in his left hand and let the yellow crystal fall straight onto the cup of tin black tea, just a little away from the liquid surface, ready to make contact.
He closed his eyes peacefully and half-shut them, and the atmosphere around him suddenly became quiet.
The pure yellow crystal moved slightly, rotating clockwise along with the uniquely shaped silver chain.
Seeing this scene, Angelica felt that Mr. Moretti was extremely mysterious.
"Your black tea is quite good," Klein opened his eyes and murmured with a smile.
His previous actions were deliberately done, to show it to Angelica!
To quickly have someone come for divination, Angelica, who was responsible for reception and recommendation, was actually a very crucial factor!
Since he wanted to play the role of a "diviner", Klein no longer had any concerns and truly devoted himself to this role. "... "Yes, Mr. VanNaas is very particular about the quality of black tea." Angelica said, her expression frozen for a moment.
At this point, Klein withdrew the spirit pendulum, re-tied it, and then picked up the white-patterned porcelain cup, smiling and raising it to salute the other person. ......
Angelica returned to the reception area and no longer felt like reading the magazine. She sat there, staring blankly, not knowing what she was thinking about.
It wasn't until a knock on the door sounded that she suddenly woke up, hurriedly looking towards the entrance, and saw a young lady in a light blue dress.
The lady removed the veil with a pink ribbon and had a calm and melancholic expression.
"Good afternoon, dear lady. Do you want to join the club or have a divination?" Angelica greeted her familiarly.
"I want a divination," the pretty-eyed but melancholic lady bit her lip and said.
Angelica first invited the other person to sit on the sofa, and then detailed the situation of the membership divination.
She took out a booklet and handed it over, saying:
"You can choose any one of them."
The depressed lady carefully turned through the booklet, because there were so many members in the club today, and there were too many options available, which made her feel confused.
"Could you recommend one? From these pages." She pointed to the middle part of the booklet, omitting the diviners with prices above 2 sols and below 4 pence.
Angelica took back the booklet and looked at it for a few minutes, considering before saying:
"I recommend this gentleman."
The lady with hidden unease focused her gaze, and found that it was a diviner named "Klein. Moretti". "... Mr. Moretti has just joined the club... Is his level trustworthy?" She asked doubtfully.
Angelica nodded affirmatively and replied:
"I and a member can both confirm that Mr. Moretti is an excellent seer. If it weren't for his recent joining of the club, he wouldn't charge such a low fee."
"I understand." The melancholic lady nodded and said, "Then I'll ask Mr. Moretti to do the divination."
"OK, wait a moment." Angelica picked up the book and stood up to walk towards the meeting room.
She came to Klein's side and lowered her voice, saying:
"Mr. Moretti, someone has asked you to do a divination. Which divination room would you like to use?"
The effect was good. The first "business" came in... Klein put down his cup of black tea and nodded calmly.
"Yellow crystal room."
"OK." Angelica walked slowly in front and led the way, and opened the wooden door of the yellow crystal room.
Klein sat behind the table with many divination tools, waiting for several dozen seconds. Then he saw a woman in a light blue dress, with a low and melancholic mood, enter.
Taking advantage of the moment when she closed the door behind her, he lightly tapped his temples twice.
"The yellow in the stomach is a little dim... The dark color of the emotions is very heavy, mainly worry and unease..." Klein carefully looked at it and leaned back, closing the vision with his hand.
"Hello, Mr. Moretti." The woman in the light blue dress sat down.
"Good afternoon. How should I address you?" Klein politely asked, without having any certain expectations of getting an answer.
As a keyboard expert, he knew that many people were reluctant to use their real names when doing divination.
"You can call me Anna." The woman in the light blue dress put the veil aside and looked at Klein expectantly yet with many doubts, "I want to do a divination about my fiancé's situation. He went to the South Continent for a business in March. On the 3rd of last month, he sent a telegram to me and his family, saying that he was about to set sail back. However, twenty days have passed, and he still hasn't returned. At first, I thought it was due to the violent weather of the South Sea, but today, more than a month has passed, and the 'Osgood' ship he was on still hasn't reached the Enmat Port."
The ocean separating the North Continent and the South Continent is called the Violent Sea. It is famous for its numerous natural disasters and dangerous currents. If it weren't for the fact that Emperor Rosel sent people to explore several relatively safe routes, the countries in the North Continent might not have been able to enter the colonial era until today, let alone lay submarine cables and complete the wired telegraph system.
Klein looked at his first client in the true sense of his "divinationist" career and asked cautiously:
"Which divination method do you want to use?"
