Mystery: Lucky

Alice couldn't stand it anymore.

Although she doesn't know Isilant and is not very familiar with the 'Psychological Alchemy Society', in her opinion, it's not strange that Isilant is wary of this honorable name - "True Creator", it's quite normal. .

Alice believes that any normal person who knows something about the "True Creator" and the "Aurora Society" will be wary when hearing this name.

But this is something that cannot be studied in detail. Alice can see that Allen is about to tell the truth - facing a "psychiatrist", even if Esilante's methods are gentle, Allen cannot resist for long .

I should probably help him...

Alice's thoughts moved, and Allen immediately woke up and recalled the things that were wrong that he had ignored.

What does she want to find out? She sounded like she knew something... For a while, Allen couldn't think of much content. He just became vigilant and said as happily as possible:

"Can you help translate the content of the honorary name? That would be great! Is this difficult? How long will it take? I am willing to pay you, and the tuition will be paid as normal..."

Esilante gradually frowned.

Of course she could see Allen's change. In fact, she had found it a bit strange before - Allen's determination was seriously inconsistent with his appearance.

Of course, this is not too strange, and Esilante is a little concerned about it, but there are too many possibilities. Her final decision is to continue to test, on the one hand out of concern for her friends, on the other hand...

If she discovers anything, she will report it to the organization and get a reward.

Now it seems that she thinks there is no need to test it anymore, because Allen has obviously changed his attitude, but she is unaware of the reason behind it.

Esilante was not a newcomer, and she was not lucky enough to find the magic potion needed for promotion in her family's treasure house. The situation in front of her was obviously beyond her ability, and the key information was revealed. As a test, this is enough.

"No, it's nothing," Islant said with a smile, "But I seem to have seen this honorary name somewhere... I originally wanted to go back and check the information."

Allen nodded in understanding and asked again: "So, how do you say it in Hermes?"

Esilante's expression did not change. She looked at the time and said with a smile:

"Well, it seems it's still early...

"This is not difficult. The grammar of Hermes is not very different from that of Loen. Let's list the corresponding words first..."

Alan began to listen attentively.

Islant did not directly pronounce this honorable name in Hermes. She wrote it to Allen word by word as if teaching, and taught Allen the pronunciation of these words one by one, and then told Allen the meaning of these words. I led Alan to read it through the order of combination. Of course, there were a lot of meaningless words inserted in the middle.

After teaching Allen the pronunciation of this honorable name, Islant stood up to leave, but Alice did not retract her gaze. Instead, she shifted her "eyesight" quite offensively - she went to see Velma.

Could Will Asceptin be aware of Alice's gaze? Of course, at least that's what Alice thinks, but Will may not necessarily be in the mood to care about Alice's provocation.

When Alice found Will's ward, Velma was curled up on the bed in pain. Selina stood up anxiously and shook the bell beside the bed.

——The hospitals in this period did not have the convenient paging as Alice remembered. They called the nurses and caregivers through the bell hanging beside the bed. This means that when the sound insulation effect is too good or the corridor is too noisy, there may be Can't hear the ringtone.

For example, now.

Selina's legs still couldn't move freely, at least she couldn't get out of bed by herself, so she could only shake the bell vigorously, hoping that someone would hear it. As for Velma...

She appeared to be incapacitated.

Will Auceptin should have noticed the truth. Alice felt that he glared at her - it was probably like this, similar to a warning, it was not painful or itchy, and then there was no time to pay attention to Alice. .

Alice was not sure what Will was doing. She looked at Velma and had a vague premonition. She sent a message to Allen with two minds:

"It seems your wife is going to give birth."

The sudden sound startled Alan, but he quickly calmed down, then panicked again, and Alice saw him rushing to the hospital.

Things progressed slower than Alice imagined. Until the evening, when Klein asked Alice if she wanted to go to the banquet to eat ice cream, Will Auceptin had not been successfully born.

But Velma did look like she was in pain.

Alice, who always felt that things would take a long time, didn't read any more. She accepted an invitation from Klein and entered Klein's house at around seven o'clock in the evening.

Rich man Dawn Dantès was greeting guests in the foyer with his butler Walter and valet Richardson. When Alice entered, she clearly saw the doubts on the faces of Walter and Richardson.

Their psychological quality was very good. When Alice looked over, all her doubts had disappeared. Klein smiled and greeted her:

"Good evening, Alice."

"Good evening." Alice stepped over the threshold, waved to Klein, and then walked in naturally.

Walter frowned, but he didn't say anything. He only looked at his master. Klein didn't think there was anything wrong and said to Walter:

"You take this lady to the dessert area."

Walter showed visible surprise this time. Alice thought he would ask something, but he didn't say anything. He just bowed and stretched out his hand to signal Alice to follow him.

Alice followed and exclaimed in amazement: "No wonder he praised you like that."

This was not a polite word. When they were chatting, Alice asked a few questions about the servants in Klein's house. Walter, the butler, was one of the few people mentioned by Klein. Klein's evaluation of him was "a man who will make his master... Very worry-free housekeeper.”

Klein also seriously recommended Walter to Alice if she needed a housekeeper one day in the future. After all, Klein was worried that Dwayne Dantès would become a wanted criminal one day in the future, causing the housekeeper to lose his job.

Thinking about it, being a housekeeper for a wanted criminal was not an honorable resume. Klein thought for a moment and thought that it might be a good career to recommend to Alice.

He also seriously considered Walter's mental health problem, but after careful consideration, Klein felt that Alice should not play with the butler like she played with other people, because the butler is a reliable tool, not a toy.

Obviously, tools will be more comfortable if you are used to them.

Walter frowned again, as if he was recalling some exchange between them that he was not present at, but he kept his doubts in his heart and just said:

"It's my pleasure."

Alice paused for a moment, realizing that this was an answer that left no room for conversation. She opened her mouth but couldn't find a new topic, so she could only follow Walter silently.

Walter took her to the dessert area, and then returned to the foyer. Alice sat depressed, looking around, looking for ice cream.

She suddenly heard a harsh breaking sound, turned her head in confusion, and saw Winfried Grigori beckoning to a maid, pushing out a plate and saying:

"I accidentally broke it, sorry."

Alice looked at the knife on the plate, then at the plate that was broken in half, and felt a chill down her spine for no reason.

She stopped looking and looked away at the foyer. Guests walked in one after another. Most of them were unfamiliar to Alice. A few of them looked familiar to Alice, such as Bishop Electra.

"Mr. Bishop!" She raised her hands high and shouted with her butt slightly off the seat.

For a moment, many guests in the hall looked this way. Bishop Electra paused and also looked this way.

Alice saw him smiling and nodding, and then walked over with another young woman next to him freely.

This is a girl who still has some baby fat on her face, that is, she is in her early twenties. She is looking around curiously. She seems to be full of energy, but she also has a unique charm about her.

Alice's curious eyes fell on her, so she smiled kindly at Alice. Alice blinked, her eyes returned to Bishop Electra, and she remembered Arrodes' words.

"Is this your wife?" she asked Bishop Electra, who had come closer.

“That’s right,” Bishop Elektra nodded and introduced the two of them, “This is my wife, Shauna Johnson, and this is the child of one of my bosses, Miss Alice Kingsley. "

Shawna Johnson seemed to remember something immediately and smiled at Alice:

"It's you... You probably don't know that Al mentioned you to me." Note ①

With that said, Shawna Johnson sat down next to her, and Bishop Elektra also sat down here as if she had no other choice.

This sentence surprised Alice. She looked at Xiaona curiously and asked her:

"How did you mention it?"

Shauna glanced at Elektra as if teasingly, smiled and said to Alice:

"He hopes our children won't be like you in the future."

Alice turned to look at Bishop Electra expressionlessly.

Mr. Bishop seemed to be in a rather complicated mood. He chuckled and replied awkwardly:

"I hope our child won't be as active as you, then I will have to take care of two children at the same time."

Alice suddenly felt a sweet and greasy taste in her throat. She looked at the desserts around her, stood up and said:

"I'm going to get some ice cream."

Shawna and Bishop Elektra said goodbye to her, and then Alice went to a little distance to get some ice cream, took a bite, and spat it back.

She looked around and sharply saw Walter leading Congressman Macht and his family of three in, so she immediately stepped forward, ignoring Hazel who became restless for a moment, and handed Walter the cup of ice cream.

Walter looked confused. He paused, subconsciously took it, and asked with a slight hesitation:

"...What are you doing?"

"It's too sweet." She frowned and said to Walter.

Walter looked confused and hesitant to speak. Hazel didn't feel anything about it, but Congressman Macht and Liana were really surprised. Finally, Congressman Macht said to Walter:

"Looks like you have some things to take care of, go ahead."

Walter looked at Representative Macht gratefully and wanted to say something, but Hazel didn't know what he thought of at the moment, so he pulled Representative Macht and insisted on leaving.

So Representative Macht smiled apologetically and was pulled away, leaving Walter and Alice standing there.

Walter began to hesitate whether he should say goodbye or leave directly. After they looked at each other for a few seconds, Alice pointed to a position slightly in the middle and said:

"If you want to block the way, it might be better to stand there."

This sincere suggestion made Walter really don't know what to say. He lowered his head to look at the cup of ice cream in his hand, and suddenly felt extremely happy. He raised his head and said:

"Thanks, but I think I should take care of the ice cream first."

Alice nodded.

So Walter took the cup of ice cream and left. When he returned to the foyer, Klein also saw the cup of ice cream, and his confused gaze fell on it.

So, while Richardson was leading the next guest in, Walter took two steps forward and said to Klein:

"That Miss Kingsley thought the ice cream was too sweet and gave it to me."

It took Klein a while to realize that Miss Kingsley was referring to Alice. The corners of his mouth twitched twice, and he looked at the ice cream that showed slight signs of melting but still had a clear shape, and picked it up under Walter's stunned eyes. The spoon tasted it.

No, the sweetness she had before was not much different... A few seconds later, he frowned and shook his head at Walter:

"Don't worry about it."

She probably doesn't really think it's too sweet, otherwise she would tell me herself... Oh wait, it doesn't seem to be necessarily the case, but it shouldn't be like this anyway...

Klein glanced at Walter, who seemed to be in very good physical and mental health.

Walter wanted to say something else, but at this moment, a rather charming lady with blond hair in a bun came over, so he could only close his mouth and watch Klein chatting with others, and then the lady looked at Walter smiled and said:

"It seems that your housekeeper's benefits are pretty good."

This lady's name is O'Lolly. She is a widow and a well-known socialite in upper class society. She has quite good friendships with several upper class people in Backlund. On the contrary, she is very unpopular with women. Anyone who has some status looks down upon her.

This was Walter's choice for Dwayne Dantès to dance with for the first time.

Walter glanced at the ice cream in his hand and explained silently:

"No, this was given to me by a customer just now..." (End of Chapter)
