"Since that's the case, I'll go find the captain, you go to the police station, we'll meet at the police station." Kenley stood up and said, "See you in a bit."
Walking out the door, Kenley returned to the squad's garrison, walked straight into Captain Dunn's office.
"Captain, I have something to report."
"You mean, there might be Extraordinaries on that ship 'Clover', and the few surviving witnesses are communicating with Klein?" Dunn put down the "Tingen City Family Weekly" in his hands, which was precisely the news of the "Clover" returning to port.
"Mm, according to the witness's account, he saw the appearance of 'King of the Five Seas' Nast, Klein and I are very curious." Kenley chuckled, "Although we didn't see it with our own eyes, seeing it in a dream seems to also make up for a bit of regret."
The corner of Dunn's mouth slightly twisted, "Since you're willing to sacrifice your rest time, I'll go with you once. I need to tell you in advance, the Cathedral people will arrive here tomorrow afternoon, the evening might be very busy."
"I know they'll bring a 'Sealed Artifact' over, what is it?"
Kenley asked with feigned curiosity.
"Sealed Artifact '2-049' can detect people who possess Antigonus blood, it's a very targeted sealed artifact with very little danger." Dunn stood up and took his coat, "Do I need to prepare anything else? Do you just need to see Nast's appearance, or do you need an autograph that can't be brought out of the dream?"
Forget about that, it's mainly to satisfy Klein's curiosity.
"By the way, captain, I have another request." Kenley said.
"Let Klein try using charms, this is fine." Captain Dunn agreed without hesitation, "Fill out a reimbursement form tomorrow, you don't know charm studies yet, let Old Neil prepare some backup supplies for you."
The two came to the police station, Klein was sitting face to face with Joyce Meyer in the interrogation room on the basement level. Seeing Kenley and Captain Dunn walk in, both sides shook hands.
"Inspector, you're really an inspector?" Joyce looked at the three people simultaneously pulling out their inspector certificates, one third-level inspector plus two trainee inspectors' certificates stamped with the police station's unique steel seal, he looked at Klein in disbelief.
"This, half an hour ago you were still divining fate for me..."
"The two are not equivalent." Dunn's calm voice came from across the table, "We equally pursue pure knowledge, in the club we are happy to help others, but possessing police badges we also won't let any criminal's whereabouts slip by."
Joyce nodded, "I will help you, what do you need me to do?"
"You need to relax, let Mr. Klein enter your dream, recall starting from encountering the 'King of the Five Seas'." After Dunn finished speaking, he nodded to Klein, "You can begin now."
"Please relax, we can bring you out at any time." Klein softly comforted Joyce, took out a charm from his pocket, and said in Hermes, "Night..."
Joyce felt dizzy and disoriented, before his eyes appeared rings of black and white circles of different sizes nested within each other, his whole person seemed to have lost footing and fallen into a bottomless giant hole, continuously exploring downward...
"Alright." Klein supported Joyce, he was surprised to find himself once again back on the "Clover", more than ten guys wearing pirate headscarves had all the crew and passengers' hands tied behind their backs with rope, dragged to a corner of the first deck to sit properly.
"Hey, that's me..." Joyce looked at "himself" being tied up, looked at Klein in horror, pointed at himself, "Inspector Klein, what's going on?"
"This is a replay of your dream, we are just observers." Klein noticed from the corner of his eye that at one side of the ship's rail, waves were inadvertently fluctuating, seemingly drawn by Joyce's emotions.
"You can imagine that at this moment you are a unique actor, appreciating a comedy that only you know from under the stage." Kenley walked over from the side, Captain Dunn stood behind him.
"Don't let your emotions fluctuate too much, otherwise we won't be able to see too many things." Kenley patted Joyce's shoulder, "You are very safe now, this is your dream, you can go out at any time."
Dunn nodded approvingly, this kind of psychological suggestion was very important for the dream's dominant person, Kenley seemed to have already mastered the ability to become a "guide" on his first time entering someone else's dream.
"Everyone, I am 'King of the Five Seas' Nast Solomon."
The enormous voice enveloped the entire "Clover", the four people turned around and saw a huge five-masted sailing ship slowly approaching, those pirates who had finished their work knelt on one knee, offering their loyalty to the black throne at the bow.
On the deck of the "Black Emperor", against the ship's cabin stood a mottled stone chair two to three meters high, on the chair sat a colossal being comparable to ancient giants.
He had black beard just past his neck, wore a high pointed tower crown, was draped in gorgeous robes with black base and silver edges, his face had hard and deep lines, full of majesty, making people subconsciously want to lower their heads.
Since Joyce was just an ordinary person, he couldn't feel the soul pressure that only Extraordinaries could experience, now he was just curiously watching, truly observing everything as a bystander.
"How strong is the opponent?" Klein moved close to Dunn's side and asked in a low voice.
"I can't sense it." Dunn looked at Klein with both annoyance and amusement, "This is after all just an ordinary person's..."
Solomon's head slightly looked toward their direction, Dunn felt a shock in his heart, large pieces of spatial fragments appeared between him and Solomon, he gripped his hands tightly, forcibly using the "Nightmare's" power to stabilize Joyce's dream.
"Praise the Goddess." Dunn drew the symbol representing the Goddess on his chest, Kenley and Klein followed suit.
"What happened?" Klein asked, still shaken.
"Nothing." Captain Dunn smiled, "Our curiosity drew the opponent's attention, this time you can satisfy your wish."
"'King of the Five Seas' Nast Solomon remembered our appearance."
Klein: ...
I was just curious...
"The dream continues, don't forget our original intention." Dunn put his hands behind his back, "If there are problems, I will use the 'Nightmare's' power to forcibly take over this dream, until we know all the details."
This sentence rang in Klein and Kenley's ears, the two slightly nodded, following behind Joyce to see all the developments.
It was that round-faced Tris youth, pure as a child, who made the move, causing the massacre on the "Clover".
