The Old Pick Laundry on the coastal street was bustling like a tavern.
"I'm Michael Tesla, you can call me Mike or Tesla. Old Pique has told us about you..." In a corner of the laundry, Tesla, wearing a top hat and having set down his cane, introduced himself to Lu Li opposite him.
Lu Li across the round table handed over the token given to him by the figure in the Crow Mask.
Lu Li's consciousness drifted in a dreamscape composed of memories, observing the past — something he could do after becoming familiar with the power of the Dreamwalker.
"What is the name of the person who gave it to you?"
"We had little communication; I only know they wore a Bird Beak Mask."
"Is it her... I heard she was recently in the Shadow Swamp evaluating an Apprentice Investigator. Did you meet her there?"
"Yes."
