【043】Let Me Think Of A Chapter Name
As a result of the exchange between the mother and daughter on the way home, an elderly woman with gray hair and a straight figure rang the doorbell of Si Chen's residence the next morning.
"Who are you……?"
"Mr. Keos, this is our first meeting. My name is Penalope, and I am the steward of Teresa's family." The old woman bowed slightly and introduced herself: "Miss Lilith asked me to send this letter to your hand."
While speaking, she handed an envelope to Si Chen.
Lilith?
Si Chen took the letter, opened it and read it.
The letter is purely handwritten, and there are not many words in it. It roughly means that the little girl had a good chat with him at the banquet last night. I hope the two of you can make an appointment to meet and see if I can translate it for her.
She will be paid accordingly.
Regardless of whether Si Chen agrees or refuses, I trouble him to inform Steward Penelope of his decision—
The butler did not stay away after handing the letter to Si Chen, but asked the accompanying maid to drive the carriage to the corner of the street where it would not interfere with normal pedestrians. where to see.
"Logically, it barely makes sense. It's normal for a girl in her teens to think about it. It's just that this kind of operation that just uses the other side's good side to open the topic... Hey, the visual sense seems a little strong? "
Si Chen raised his eyebrows.
After folding the letter paper and stuffing it back into the envelope, he walked towards the butler.
Lilith had already explained some things to the steward before she came, so the discussion between the two parties about the time soon came to a conclusion.
Si Chen’s daily life on the bright side, apart from going to the museum once every three days to hand over work, is to stay at home and translate ancient characters, and the time is relatively flexible;
Lilith's schedule is relatively full. Although she didn't go to school, Mrs. Teresa hired a lot of tutors for her, including female gentlemen who taught her aristocratic etiquette, and female scholars who taught her literature and art. These are only courses related to the world of watches. With the situation of Teresa's family, there must be many courses in the other world.
In the end, the two sides agreed to meet tomorrow afternoon at the Ian City Library.
...
In the Theresa family's estate.
After informing Lilith of the time and place, Butler Penelope came to the living room again and reported the situation to Mrs. Teresa.
"You have met the person, tell me how you feel?"
"Okay." Butler Penelope nodded and recalled: "The first impression that Mr. Keos left on me was that he was young. He was misdiagnosed by the doctor at the time, and after taking the wrong medicine, his appearance has remained in that age group.
"During the communication, I could feel that the gentleman seemed a bit uncommunicative. Combined with the information from the imperial capital, it should be that he gradually closed himself off during his studies at the Royal Academy due to the problem of his fixed appearance. Focused on the study of ancient linguistics, rarely interacting with people.
"As for whether he lives in the outer world or the inner world...
"The doctor who closed the clinic shortly after the misdiagnosis and disappeared without a trace should be a wizard, but I can't be sure whether he deliberately took Mr. Keos to test the medicine or he was a half-assed person.
"And Mr. Keos... I didn't feel the fluctuation of magic power on him, and his residence didn't show any signs of rituals from the outside. Besides, we didn't find Ke in the wizard market. During the period after Mr. Oss came to Ian City, there were newcomers whose identities could not be determined in the market.
"Based on the above, Mr. Keos should be just an ordinary person who doesn't know the existence of the other world."
Of course, there is another possibility.
If that Mr. Keos is an existence above himself like Mrs. Teresa, and he is so confident that even if he does not make any decorations in his residence, he will not encounter danger in Ian City.
Then before he took the initiative to reveal his identity, it was impossible for the housekeeper to see through his true face.
It's just that there is no need for the butler to remind me of this point. Mrs. Teresa knows a lot more about matters related to the other world than her.
"So the meeting between him and Lilith was really just a coincidence?"
Madame Teresa pondered slightly.
The butler didn't speak.
Although she had served the Teresa family before Mrs. Teresa was born and the head of the house was still the elder of the wife, it was precisely because of this that she knew better that unless the lady or the lady had clearly stated that she was allowed to speak Otherwise, don't take the master's words casually.
"Forget it, let's wait until he meets Lilith and Bechymos tomorrow to make a decision." Shaking her head, Mrs. Teresa stopped the topic.
...
the next day.
Arriving at the library a few minutes earlier than the agreed time, Si Chen found that the blonde girl was already at the door.
"Come so early?"
"After all, I invited Mr. Keos this time." Lilith replied with a smile: "I can't ask you to wait for me here, can I?"
"Are you alone...walking here?"
When he came close, Si Chen looked around, but he didn't find a carriage with the Teresa family emblem parked nearby, so he asked curiously.
It stands to reason that a young lady like Lilith should have a maid by her side, ready to help her with some things at any time. The dinner that day was a special case, and usually only the host arranged to serve the guests at this kind of banquet. servant appeared.
"One is looking for a place to park the carriage, and the other one I asked her to go up and help us find a place, otherwise she will follow, standing at the door of this library seems a bit noticeable."
"..."
Be confident, that is, you still have the breath-holding state on your body, otherwise it will make no difference to you whether you have a maid or not.
Unlike the gorgeous dress at the dinner party the day before yesterday, today Lilith is only wearing casual clothes, but the casual clothes are really only reflected in the convenience of movement.
Although the ankle-length skirt does not have as many decorations as the dress, it is exquisite in materials and workmanship that can be seen by the naked eye.
In line with the aristocratic temperament that the little girl has cultivated since childhood.
As long as the breath is lifted, it will become the focus of attention of the people around in minutes.
"Let's go, don't stand at the door, let's talk inside."
Holding Behemoth, who became restless after Si Chen appeared in one hand, and shaking the book with the other hand, Lilith greeted.
