As for whether this process would bring danger?
Rosago, already Sequence 5, casually performed a divination, and after confirming that there was no danger in this trip, he sneered and walked towards the location of a certain detective agency.
However, he didn't notice that in a corner behind him, which wouldn't be noticed by people due to mystical reasons, Lin Ruo, who had already taken off Ian's disguise, dispersed the pen in his hand with a beaming smile.
The golden words in the air at this moment had already faded, leaving only a few traces:
[After Rosago discovers that the "Helmosuin Manuscript" is fake, he will, driven by anger, go to silence Sherlock Moriarty, the detective.]
"This takes effect so quickly. Could it be that Master Luo is truly a Folk of Rage?" Watching Rosago's back disappear, Lin Ruo hooked the corner of his mouth, his smile a bit strange.
What happened tonight was naturally all within Lin Ruo's plan. First, he disguised himself as Ian to lure the people from Intis and MI9 to a fierce battle in the abandoned warehouse. Then, he let Rosago snatch away the forged "Helmosuin Manuscript." Taking advantage of the fact that both sides were in a fierce battle and no one had time to pay attention to the small fry "Ian," he logically ran away, then relied on the Concealment Badge to transform into a hidden state and sneak back, quietly following behind Rosago.
— In fact, Lin Ruo originally planned to let MI9 snatch the forged manuscript. However, at the crucial moment, he suddenly changed his mind.
Because compared to the original plan of letting everyone know that the manuscript was fake, making everyone think that this was a conspiracy against Intis, Lin Ruo wanted to shift the blame onto Rosago.
After all, the former would make everyone realize that this was a conspiracy, which would bring some risks to Klein, who had already been exposed to MI9, and would also leave many flaws in his departure as "Ian."
As for the latter, as long as Rosago disappeared with the fake manuscript, it would create a certain chemical reaction in a short period of time.
No one would know that the manuscript Rosago took away was fake. In this regard, Lin Ruo had done enough interference. Unless someone like Rosago directly obtained the fake manuscript and performed a divination to confirm it, even a Sequence 4 Trickster would not be able to detect this.
And as long as no one knew that the manuscript was fake, what would be the impression given to others when Rosago disappeared without notifying anyone—if they divined Rosago's death, they would think that a mysterious third party was involved in this matter.
If they didn't divine this matter, then everything would probably point in another direction:
Rosago was suspected of being a spy and ran away with the manuscript.
Of course, MI9 might not divine this aspect, and might not have the conditions to divine it, so they would most likely think that Intis had won this manuscript battle, and thus, part of the blame would be placed on Intis's head.
As for Intis, whether they thought that a third party was involved or that Rosago was a spy in the aftermath, it was acceptable to Lin Ruo.
Lin Ruo would also appropriately use [Truth] to guide things towards the outcome he wanted.
"If most people don't realize that this is a conspiracy, but are manipulated by me to act, completing the script I've woven, so that my purpose can be achieved… When things are over, will this bring better digestion results? Or the opposite?" Lin Ruo pinched his chin, thinking with a smile.
He was still very curious whether the act of weaving conspiracies itself, whether it was more beneficial for potion digestion to hide behind the scenes from beginning to end, even making people unaware that a conspiracy had occurred, or whether it was better to make people aware that a conspiracy had already occurred but be helpless against the culprit.
This was related to his summary of the Conspirer acting principle.
"Forget it, let's go to Klein's side first…" Lazily stretching, Lin Ruo then skillfully switched his simulated ability to the Traveler state, and then used Travel to teleport himself to Klein's side.
At this moment, Klein was naturally staying in Sherlock's detective agency, ostensibly reading the newspaper, but in reality, "Creeping Hunger" was already in place on his hand, "Slow" was at his waist, and in the hand in his pocket was his only high-level talisman.
Without a doubt, Klein had also been notified in advance by Lin Ruo that the manuscript battle would end today, and that Rosago would come to his door to carry out the extermination.
"Don't be so nervous. It's just a Marionettist without a Marionette, and one who has just experienced a fierce battle. Don't say that I'm here, even if I'm not, you have a very good chance of winning with this equipment." Seeing Klein on high alert, as if he would explode at any moment, Lin Ruo couldn't help but say with a smile.
Because he had noticed Lin Ruo the first moment he arrived, Klein was naturally not startled by his sudden voice, but his tense mood did ease a little, and he said, "Is it over there?"
"Yes, it's almost over. Rosago is already on his way here. The Intis ambassador, Bakerland Jean Madan, will also be killed by Mr. A tonight. Once you kill Rosago, this matter will be over."
Lin Ruo said with a smile, paused, and then reminded, "I don't recommend you use the Flaring Sun Charm. The commotion it brings is too great, which will cause unnecessary attention and damage your residence. Moreover, the Flaring Sun Charm itself can cause considerable damage even to high sequences. It's a pity to use it on Rosago."
"…I wasn't necessarily going to use it, I'm just a little worried." Klein released the hand that was tightly holding the Flaring Sun Charm. He was indeed a little nervous. After all, even though he had fought many times at sea before, he had never really fought a Sequence 5, and a powerful Sequence 5 like a Marionettist at that.
Under such circumstances, anyone would feel nervous except for the lunatics of the Aurora Order.
"So, do you want me to help you control him?" Lin Ruo suggested with a bright smile.
He originally intended to let Klein solve Rosago alone, after all, with Klein's current equipment, the chances of winning were not small. But considering that once Klein fought Rosago, and couldn't quickly resolve the opponent, it was likely to cause unnecessary attention, Lin Ruo decided to do a small favor.
Anyway, there will be many opportunities to train in the future, and this one doesn't matter.
"Huh?" Klein was stunned for a moment, obviously a little surprised, but in the end, he nodded and said, "Yes!"
He was actually worried that the commotion caused by fighting Rosago would be too great, which would cause unnecessary attention, and even damage the house, causing some bad results.
It would be best if Lin Ruo was willing to help.
Klein was not the kind of person who would pretentiously refuse when a big shot was willing to help.
So, when Rosago, disguised as a sheriff, entered Sherlock's detective agency, he had just sat down on the sofa when he felt his thinking become sluggish.
Not good… Marionettist…
How could… I clearly didn't… divined… any danger…
