Subconsciously, Lynn turned her head and stared at Giuseppe, who was sitting on the sofa, clutching his wound and looking at her silently in pain.

"That's strange, none of these four guys are traitors or moles..."

Lynn frowned, secretly marveling.

But since he was entrusted to communicate with spirits, he had to say or do something before he could accept the commission fee.

"Mr. Giuseppe, Mr. Alessandro, I need to make some ceremonial preparations. Do you have an open space here?"

"I also need my partner to bring my ritual items from the car. You also need to prepare 5 thick white candles, a whole white cowhide, an unopened bottle of tequila, and a bowl of spring water."

That's right. In order to maintain his sacred image in front of the gang, he still planned to go all out and make sure the ceremony was complete.

After all, he made such a big fuss in Carlos, and now he's just telling the truth after only one glance. There's no way anyone would believe him!

They might even feel like they're just giving them the runaround, and they'd just drag them out and execute them!

After all, these people aren't exactly saints; they're gangsters!

"Do as Mr. Wuyi says, there is a lawn behind the building."

10 minutes later.

On the not-so-wide lawn behind the apartment building.

The henchmen of the 18th Street Gang had already used a lawnmower to draw a circle with a diameter of 10 meters, as Lynn had requested. The center of the circle was decorated with the serpentine rune of Danbala, and an inscribed pentagram was drawn inside the circle.

Each vertex of the pentagram was adorned with sugared apples that Lynn had brought along, and a thick white candle was lit atop each of them. A snow-white leather sheet lay in the center, while Lynn held spring water and tequila in his hands.

The four underlings, who were suspected by both sides, were ordered to kneel on the cowhide in the center of the five-pointed star.

Lynn walked to the center of the formation, first picked up the spring water, raised his hand and sprinkled it into the air, chanting incantations in a low but rhythmic voice...

The process was the same as it had been with Carlos's gang, just in case there were people on both sides who knew each other but knew different procedures, and then I realized I had been fooling them.

After the ten-minute witch doctor ritual was completed, Lynn spoke to Giuseppe and Alessandro, who were waiting there:

"After speaking with D'Ambaranoa, he told me that Lorenzo, Matteo, Diego, and José are all loyal to their respective gangs and have not done anything to betray or report on anyone."

"None of them are traitors, that's impossible!"

Giuseppe had largely recovered by this point, and his deep-set eyes and high cheekbones made his anger look even more frightening!

"Mr. Witch Doctor, are you mistaken? For security reasons, we've given these four people complete control over the time, place, and method of the transaction. Even my boss and I aren't allowed to know!"

He pointed angrily at the four people kneeling in the middle of the five-pointed star, his spittle almost spraying onto Lynn's face.

While Alessandro wasn't as agitated, his gaze toward Lynn was filled with suspicion.

I heard from people who know Carlos Ban that this witch doctor is very reliable. He immediately identified the traitor and cured Kalib's poison with his magical witchcraft.

Could it be that they fabricated miracles to save face?

"It's true, Mr. Giuseppe. Cabanoan told me personally that all four of them are loyal to the gang and have never betrayed any information."

"Heh, witch doctor, that's impossible! Or perhaps you simply lack the ability to discern who the real traitor is, and your sorcery is just a fabrication?"

"Let me tell you, if we can't identify the real traitor among them today, hmph..."

Giuseppe's gaze toward Lynn was already extremely fierce. Lynn could even tell from his expression that if he didn't go along with him and point out that those people were indeed traitors, he might not be able to leave this apartment building alive!

"It may sound unbelievable, but since they believed me and invited me here, why don't they accept my conclusion? I've never met these four people before, yet I can name them off the top of my head. Doesn't that prove the truth of my words?"

"This guy... seems a bit strange!"

Lynn frowned, his sixth sense starting to kick in.

He subconsciously used an opening skill on Giuseppe as well.

The cunning and greedy forest troll Giuseppe was gloating over his scheme with the Stratholme skeleton guards to stage a false alarm. He had secretly hidden a small listening device in Lorenzo's glasses to overhear their discussion of the deal, then provided the information to Lorenzo so they could be caught red-handed. A closer look at the listening device revealed Giuseppe's fingerprints.

"???"

What Lynn saw gave her quite a fright!

So, you, who caused the most trouble, were the traitor all along!

No wonder you were unhappy when I said none of those people were suspects, and even threatened me!

So you wanted me to use you as a tool to kill someone!

Lynn's scalp was tingling.

He felt that he had encountered the same predicament that Di Ting in Journey to the West faced.

I could definitely tell who the fake Sun Wukong was.

But dare I say that?

I am currently in the headquarters of the 18th Street Gang.

If I dared to reveal this information, do you think these gang members would believe their leader or me, an outsider?

When he looked into Giuseppe's eyes again, the other man's gaze had changed.

It seemed to be a warning to him to quickly find someone here, even if it was a traitor.

Otherwise, you'll be sorry.

"..."

Lynn pursed her lips, frantically racking her brains for a solution.

"Hey, hey, everyone, my respected friends from the 18th Street Gang, you should trust my friend. He's an incredibly skilled and professional witch doctor, and the Carlos Gang can attest to that!"

Mike, who was standing nearby and unaware of the situation, saw them staring at Lynn with such unfriendly expressions and quickly explained loudly on his behalf.

"Sandro, it seems the witch doctor you found is not living up to his reputation, huh..."

Giuseppe grinned and spoke menacingly to his nephew standing beside him.

Meanwhile, Lynn was rapidly calculating his chances of survival if he were to turn hostile on the spot.

"First, use Shadow Arrow to knock the gun out of Giuseppe's hand and cripple his hand."

"Then, both Weakness and Corruption were upgraded to level 2. The former could make him so weak that he couldn't even stand up, while the latter could deal 80 damage in 12 seconds. Before the two spells even finished ticking, it was enough to kill Giuseppe."

"But what happens after that? This place is full of their gang members. Do you expect them to politely and safely escort me out the door after I kill him?"
