Ian, a supporting character in the original work with limited screen time, but in a sense, one cannot say he is unimportant.

It was his existence that led Klein to become involved in the "Helmosuin Manuscript" incident, indirectly leading the original Klein to commission Justice Audrey to kill the Intis ambassador for self-preservation, and later join forces with Miss Sharron to eliminate Rosago, who took the initiative to come to his door and attempt to silence him, allowing Klein to obtain subsequent formulas and contribute to the birth of "The World."

Clearly just a Sequence 5 Marionettist, yet he charged in like a member of the Tyrant Pathway—Master Luo ended up becoming the classic cautionary tale for the Seer Pathway. He was repeatedly dragged out and ridiculed by readers, not only throughout the entire comment section of the book, but even in Cuttlefish's next novel, where he continued to be mentioned from time to time. It was truly enough to bring tears to the eyes of those who saw it and sorrow to those who heard it.

Although back then, I was also one of those who beat the corpse… sigh, everything about this world is great—except there's no internet. I can't post chapter comments while reading, and that takes away more than half the fun… Speaking of which, it's almost the full moon. I wonder how that salted-fish Fors's new book is coming along. Should I go bug her about it later?

Lin Ruo thought aimlessly, lounging lazily on the sofa. Right beside him, Klein was busy receiving guests.

Lin Ruo thought aimlessly, lazily sitting on the sofa, next to Klein who was receiving guests.

And Ian, across from him, was a little restrained because of the appearance of Lin Ruo, this "assistant," but because Lin Ruo herself looked very deceptive, the kind that made people think she was a good person at first glance, with a high level of affinity, he still half-truthfully told about his encounters, that is, after he worked for Detective Zreal, he was being followed, and Detective Zreal was suspected of having an accident.

Finally, Ian stated the content of the commission:

"I want to commission you to investigate Mr. Zreal and confirm his situation, just confirm his situation is enough."

Seeing this, although Klein guessed that Ian was hiding something, because Ian himself was the kind of person who worked for detectives and had many channels, which was the kind of talent Klein needed to befriend now, and Klein himself was confident enough, he naturally accepted the commission.

Lin Ruo, who was watching from the sidelines, naturally had no intention of stopping him. After all, Ian's appearance here could be said to be a coincidence, but it really couldn't be said that it had nothing to do with him.

The convergence of the world line may be one of the reasons, but if you say that Ian still chose Sherlock Moriarty from the vast sea of people this time, and it has nothing to do with Lin Ruo's previous writing of [Rosago will meet Klein] with the Truth for Klein's subsequent advancement materials and for the birth of "The World," Lin Ruo doesn't believe it either.

Well, it's not necessarily entirely the effect of Truth. After all, the "Helmosuin Manuscript" involves the Orange Light. As everyone knows, the Seven Lights of the Spirit World are all licking dogs of the Lord of the Sefirah Castle and have a great connection with the Sefirah Castle. Although they are definitely not as loyal as the Little Mirror Arrodes, it is not surprising that this incident will involve Klein, the Lord of the Sefirah Castle, under the guidance of fate.

And Rosago, as a Mid-Sequence of the Seer pathway, would meet Klein because of the attraction of the Sefirah Castle, which is even more normal.

Lin Ruo thought this way, watching Ian, who had completed the commission and agreed on the reward with Klein, leave the office.

However... perhaps he could try to weave a conspiracy based on this matter?

It's just that letting the "Helmosuin Manuscript" fall into the hands of MI9 feels a bit unwilling...

Lin Ruo narrowed his eyes, various thoughts flashed through his mind, and he saw Klein next to him tossing his usual gold coin, and then, as expected, he was greeted with a divination failure.

"It seems that Ian is hiding more than I thought..." Klein picked up the coin that had fallen on the ground and looked at Lin Ruo, who was leisurely drinking tea next to him, "What do you think?"

"He is indeed hiding a lot of things..." Lin Ruo nodded, not intending to hide anything in this matter. After all, given Klein's current situation, it is actually difficult for the development of the matter to follow the original work. Since this is the case, it is better to open up some things at the beginning and take the initiative to grasp the development of the matter next.

Passive waiting has never been Lin Ruo's style.

So Lin Ruo immediately said: "According to the information I know, the Detective Zreal in his mouth is a Feysac Empire spy."

"Cough..." Klein, who had just picked up the tea on the table and took a sip, was immediately choked. He looked at Lin Ruo and asked incredulously: "A Feysac Empire spy?"

Although he had guessed that Ian was hiding something just now, Klein really didn't expect that this matter would directly involve a Feysac Empire spy.

This is simply a big international case!

"Calm down! What is this, you're getting excited too early." Saying that, Lin Ruo smiled and took a sip of tea before continuing: "Not only is that Detective Zreal a Feysac Empire spy, but the Ian you just received is actually half a spy. He is an orphan adopted by Zreal, specializing in collecting various information."

"And if my information is correct, the reason why that Detective Zreal and this Ian got into trouble is because Ian accidentally discovered a clue to something very important. Unfortunately, among the superiors of that Detective Zreal, or the people around his superiors, there are Intis spies, so after knowing about this, they killed Zreal and started to capture Ian."

"Of course, the Intis side doesn't dare to make too much noise, after all, this is Backlund. If it's really too much, it will be troublesome for them if the people from MI9 find out."

"By the way, let me mention that the Intis spy behind the scenes is that Intis ambassador, surprise, surprise?"

After roughly explaining the context of the matter, Lin Ruo looked at Klein, smiling more and more brightly.

Klein: …

Klein didn't know what to say anymore. After holding back for a long time, he finally couldn't help but blurt out:

"So I just accepted a five-pound commission and got involved in a big event involving three countries?"

"Nice!" Lin Ruo expressed affirmation, and also gave Klein a thumbs up, sincerely praising: "Klein, in terms of being a troublemaker, I would call you the strongest!"

Klein: …

Thank you, I don't really want this praise!

Although he was speechless to the extreme, it's not like he was too flustered. After all, he is not the poor cat in the original work who had nowhere to go after dying once. Now Klein has the backing of the Evernight Church and Lin Ruo, the goddess's favored one, as his teacher.

Not to mention that he is only touching the edge of this matter now, and it doesn't really count as being involved. Even if he is really involved, Klein is not very worried.

He just thought of another thing based on the series of information Lin Ruo just gave:

"Lin Ruo, are you investigating this matter?"
