Chapter 116 My Brother the Fortune Teller

Chapter 116 My Brother the Fortune Teller

Klein wrapped the topaz around his hand and put on his hat again. He thought with some annoyance, "Maybe I can put a piece of paper on the wall and write 'Don't love Eve, it will be fruitless' on it."

He imagined the scene, a group of people gathered around, discussing the contents of the paper. In that case, Eve's reputation would probably spread beyond Tingen Technical College and into Tingen, but it was unknown what kind of reputation it would be.

With his thoughts racing, Klein stood up, walked out of the Citrine Room, and prepared to pour himself a cup of coffee.

"Da! Da! Da!"

The cane kept hitting the ground as Klein moved, again and again, but suddenly it disappeared.

A familiar voice unexpectedly entered Klein's ears.

"Mr. Moretti?"

Oh my god! Melissa!

Klein quickly identified the owner of the voice. He raised his cane to prevent it from making any sound and quietly approached the reception desk.

It really is Melissa!

Klein's mind suddenly went blank. He had no thoughts in his head. His body fled back to the Citrine Room before his mind did. He locked the door.

Klein!

Melissa stared at the name on the paper in amazement, and for a moment she even doubted her own eyes.

Klein actually knows divination?

Could it be that his teacher taught him this?

"Ms. Angelica," Melissa tugged at her dress uncomfortably, "Is Klein a member of the Fortune Teller Club?"

"Miss, do you know Mr. Klein?"

Angelica asked casually, not surprised at all. Klein was considered a relatively famous fortune teller.

"Yes," Melissa nodded, pursed her lips, and said after two seconds of consideration: "He is my brother."

Angelica looked at Melissa in surprise, with a hint of surprise in her eyes.

"I really didn't expect that... Oh, wait, do you need me to help you find Mr. Klein? Mr. Klein was just doing divination for someone, and it's over now."

"No, not now," Melissa said immediately. The girl looked around and asked uncomfortably, "I want to ask how to join the Fortune Teller Club. Do I need to pay a membership fee?"

Angelica nodded and said:

"Miss Moretti, do you want to join the club? You can join the Fortune Teller Club by paying the membership fee. The first time you become a member, you need to pay 5 pounds, and then 1 pound per year. Members can use the club's meeting room and various fortune telling rooms and tools for free, enjoy the coffee and tea we provide for free, read the newspapers and magazines we subscribe for free, and buy lunch, dinner, alcoholic beverages and some fortune telling teaching materials and materials at cost price."

"Also, we will invite at least one famous fortune teller to give lectures every month to answer questions. Hmm... this may not be of much use to Ms. Moretti, after all, you have a brother who is a real fortune teller."

"The most important thing is that your brother is here too, and you can find a group of friends with the same interests and exchange experiences with each other."

5 pounds!

Melissa was shocked by the high cost. This was almost Klein's weekly salary!

Too luxurious!

"No, I have no intention of joining the club," Melissa said firmly, "I am not interested in divination."

"It's really surprising," Angelica opened her mouth slightly. "After all, your brother is a real fortune teller. I thought his family would be... Your brother is really amazing. Even people who are not interested in fortune telling would find it hard to show any interest after meeting Mr. Klein."

Klein's divination ability seems to be very strong... Ms. Angelica has been saying that Klein is a true fortune teller...

Melissa lowered her head and looked at the words "Klein Moretti, 8 pence" on the paper. She was silent for a few seconds and then said, "Ms. Angelica, how do you set your price?"

Angelica followed Melissa's gaze and saw "Klein Moretti, 8 pence" on the paper. She chuckled and explained, "Our price is set by the fortune teller himself. We will take one-eighth of the total price."

"In fact, with Mr. Klein's level, he can charge 1 soli or even 2 soli, but you can't insult a real fortune teller with money."

Ah?

Melissa's eyes were filled with shock and confusion. She couldn't insult a real fortune teller with money... What did that mean?

An industry taboo?

But when did Klein become a fortune teller? Benson and I had no idea. We didn't even know when he started liking fortune telling or when he joined the Fortune Teller Club.

"When did Klein join the club?" Melissa asked with a serious and inquiring expression as she looked up at Angelica.

Mr. Klein seems to be... hiding something from his family?

Angelica hesitated for a few seconds, and finally said tentatively: "Mr. Klein has not been a member for long..."

She observed Melissa's expression, which was still the same as before.

It seems... that's right...

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Angelica continued, "I joined in early July..."

Early July? At that time, Klein had not yet been promoted and his weekly salary was only 3 pounds!

Where did he get the 5-pound membership fee?

"This Mr. Moretti is really a fortune teller with noble character," Eve said, holding her fist to her chin and thinking seriously, "Few people can refuse money."

"Teacher Eve?"

Melissa was stunned for a moment. She had no idea when Teacher Eve came back. But when she thought of Eve's strange presence, it made sense.

When the girl heard Eve's praise, she felt her face getting hot. She looked away embarrassedly and changed the subject: "What does Kolbe want to talk to the teacher about?"

Even if others don't know, doesn't she know...

Klein must have had some compelling reason to set the price so low.

"Nothing," Eve said with a smile, "I lost a pen and Kolbe happened to pick it up."

Eve had encountered this kind of thing countless times over the past thousand years, both men and women, attracted by the beauty and charm of high-ranking witches. He had long been accustomed to it and did not care.

Many pursuers think that they love passionately and deeply, but most of them end up getting married, having children and living a normal life.

Melissa nodded and said nothing. She looked at the list, then looked at Eve, bit her lower lip nervously, and felt a little hesitant and embarrassed for a moment.

I wonder when Teacher Eve came. Did she hear that Klein was my brother?

"Let's choose this fortune teller," Eve pointed to "Klein Moretti, 8 pence" on the list and said, "The price is very affordable, and he is quite capable."

Melissa's eyes revealed a hint of embarrassment. She really wanted to rush in, grab Klein, and question him.

But that wasn't possible. There were so many people here, and her teacher and Klein's...colleagues were all here. Both Klein and she had to behave respectably.

"Teacher Eve, go ahead," Melissa said, tilting her head slightly and staring at the wooden table in front of Angelica, "I'll be waiting for the teacher here."

I hope Klein can give me a reason that can convince me when I get home.

Chapter 117 Extraordinary Publicity

"Ms. Eve, please wait here for a while. It will only take a short while."

Angelica walked out from behind the table and explained, "Mr. Klein was just fortune-telling for a gentleman. He is the gentleman who just left. He should be in the lounge or another room now. I will go look for him."

After saying that, Angelica smiled at the two ladies and left in a hurry.

Walking through the long corridor, a familiar figure suddenly came into view.

"Mr. Klein?"

Klein glanced behind Angelica without leaving any trace, and breathed a sigh of relief. On the surface, he put on his usual charlatan look and asked Angelica with a smile, "Ms. Angelica, which lady wants divination?"

Angelica showed a bit of surprise on her face, but then she remembered that Mr. Klein was a truly magical fortune teller, and nodded, "It's Miss Eve, uh..."

She didn't know how much Mr. Klein knew, or whether he knew the two young ladies outside. After thinking for two seconds, Angelica dutifully introduced them, "There are two young ladies outside. The one who wants divination is Miss Eve, and the other is Mr. Klein's sister. Miss Eve is Miss Melissa's teacher."

Klein nodded and said to Angelica, "Could you trouble Ms. Angelica to take Miss Eve to the Citrine Room?"

Angelica nodded, turned back to the reception hall, and said to Eve, "Ms. Eve, Mr. Klein is in the Citrine Room. I'll take you there."

Eve turned to Melissa and said "Wait a moment" before standing up, nodding to Angelica, and following the beautiful lady through the corridor to the Citrine Room.

"Mr. Klein."

Angelica knocked on the door, then opened it and moved sideways, leaving a clear passage for entry and exit.

In the room, Klein sat in front of a wooden table, with a yellow crystal pendulum wrapped around his left hand and a faint smile on his face. There were some divination tools on the table, silently creating a sense of mystery.

Eve tilted her head and looked into the room, and suddenly felt like laughing. He suppressed his smile and walked into the room with a dignified manner.

After Eve entered the room, Angelica closed the door.

After Ms. Angelica left, Klein suddenly lost his mysterious look. He immediately stood up and ran towards Eve.

"What are you doing?" Klein asked with a bit of gritted teeth in his tone.

"Don't be angry yet, listen to my explanation."

Eve said calmly, "Remember when I told you that Melissa would become an Extraordinary in the future?"

"I remember," Klein said in a bad mood, "Are you still thinking about this?"

"You can't say that," Eve walked around Klein and walked to the desk and sat down on a chair. "Let me tell you this. In the future, Feifan will be semi-public or even public. The reason is inconvenient to tell you. You just need to know that this is happening."

"In the future, extraordinary events will increase significantly. It will be safer for Melissa and Benson to know some extraordinary knowledge or even become extraordinary people."

"And through you, it is the safest way for Melissa to get in touch with the Extraordinary, and an official Extraordinary at that."

At this point, Eve curled her lips, with a sly smile, "Melissa is already suspicious of your income, and she may ask to visit your company. I'm just taking the first step, and it's up to you to decide whether to go on the rest of the way."

Extraordinary openness!

Klein's pupils shrank. This information was too shocking for him to react. He was stunned for a few seconds, and his eyes gradually came back to his senses. His brain began to process the sudden information.

After a long while, Klein's lips moved and he said, "So, you brought Melissa here specially."

"Not really. I just happened to come here while shopping, and then I had this idea," Eve said with her arms folded across her chest. "Okay, I admit that I wanted to have some fun."

The news was so devastating that Klein completely lost the desire to complain. He didn't think about the flaws in Eve's excuses, and he also ignored the sudden rain he would have to face when he got home.

The brown-eyed young man lowered his head in silence for a long time. He raised his head and looked at Eve. His lips moved a few times and he said, "Thank you for your kindness to Melissa and Benson..."

Klein paused, pursed his lips, and uttered the remaining words, "...care."

He discovered early on that Eve's care for Melissa and Benson could not be called concern, but more like a care based on responsibility and "Zhou Mingrui".

Otherwise, Eve would have planned to let them come into contact with the Extraordinary from the very beginning, just like He had told him from the very beginning, when He was still Sequence Nine, that He wanted to become an angel.

Klein guessed that Eve's desire to have fun played a big role in the cause of this incident. However, if there was no benefit of "allowing Melissa to safely come into contact with the Extraordinary", He probably wouldn't have done it. After all, he was really angry at the beginning.

But it's enough for now, things will get better in the future...

Well, it's going to get better.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Klein pondered in his mind and silently encouraged himself.

"Since Feifan will reveal the truth in the future, there's no point in hiding it now." Klein turned around and walked back to the desk, sitting back in his chair.

"Actually, you don't have to worry so much." Eve tapped the table a few times to draw Klein's attention. "It's just a low-sequence potion. Considering Melissa and Benson's ages, as long as they don't drink the potion in a serious negative state, they won't get out of control."

"Okay, now, help me with the divination."

Klein was stunned for a moment. "Do you really want to tell fortunes?"

"Of course," Eve said matter-of-factly, "I paid eight pence."

"No, you haven't paid yet," Klein corrected expressionlessly. In the Fortune Teller Club, people pay after fortune telling. He stroked the yellow crystal pendulum wrapped around his left hand and said, "And what if the pendulum breaks while I'm fortune telling you? It's more than eight pence. If you see something you shouldn't see and your eyes are broken, it's even worse."

Eve said, "Tsk, I won't hurt you, how could those things happen?"

Klein glanced at Eve and said, "You are harming me by showing up here with Melissa."

"The benefits outweigh the disadvantages," Eve waved her hand and smiled, "How can you say it's harmful?"

Klein's eyes revealed a bit of disdain, and he asked resignedly, "What do you want to calculate? What divination method do you choose?"

"Hmm..." Eve raised her head slightly, thought for a moment, and asked, "What did you divine today?"

Hearing this, Klein paused and looked up at Eve with a complicated look in his eyes.

(End of this chapter)Chapter 118 Divination Content

Chapter 118 Divination Content

Eve's sea-blue eyes moved up and down, revealing a hint of smile. "He" had already guessed what Klein was divining.

"He" leaned forward and patted Klein's shoulder. He placed his hand on Klein's shoulder and comforted him with a smile, "Don't worry. I have encountered this kind of thing so many times in the past three thousand years that I can't even count it. It happened to both men and women. I'm used to it."

Male male... female female?

Klein's eyes widened immediately. This... was just a casual remark...

He slowly raised his head, his eyes flickered across Eve's face, and fell silent.

A few seconds later, Klein grabbed Eve's wrist and pushed her back slowly and forcefully. He said with some disdain, "You can be their ancestor, yet you still flirt with them."

Eve sat back in her chair, raised her hands and shouted that she was innocent.

Klein pretended to be deaf and dumb and ignored Eve's wailing. He stroked the yellow crystal pendulum and said, "Hurry up and do the divination. Melissa is still waiting for you outside."

Eve withdrew her hand, sat up straight, put her hands on the table, and asked, "What do you want to predict?"

"That's my line," Klein complained. He looked up at Eve, then looked away.

Eve was indeed beautiful. He was a little dazed when he first saw her. However, any one of the three points, "Eve used to be a man", "Eve used to be his brother", and "Eve is now his sister", would make Klein lose his special thoughts, let alone all three at the same time.

He took off the yellow crystal pendulum on his left hand, held it up in the air by the silver chain, waited for the pendulum to be still, sighed and said, "I don't think I can tell your fortune with my level."

Normally, the divination method is chosen by the customer, but He just wanted to have some fun and was not interested in how Klein did the divination, as long as he did it.

Klein guessed that if his sister asked him to tell fortunes, she would probably ask some simple questions that could be told using a pendulum.

Eve laughed, leaned forward, stretched out her hand and grasped the pendulum in Klein's hand. With a slight force, she took it out of Klein's hand.

The yellow crystal pendulum that had just been still began to shake again, and Eve raised the pendulum in front of Klein.

Klein was stunned for a moment, his eyes shifted slightly, swept across Eve, then retracted his gaze and stared at the yellow crystal pendulum again.

The originally swinging pendulum immediately paused for a moment, and then slowly rotated in a clockwise direction.

Eve raised her hand, and the yellow crystal was pulled up by the silver chain, drawing an arc and falling into her palm.

The girl smiled slightly and threw the pendulum towards Klein.

Klein immediately stretched out his hands and caught the pendulum steadily.

"Let's do some divination," Eve half leaned against the backrest and said with a smile, "I'll tell you what to do. The divination method is up to you."

Klein's eyes revealed a hint of surprise. He wrapped the topaz pendulum around his left hand with a puzzled look on his face, but he still seriously thought about what divination method to use.

Dream divination is the most suitable... Klein thought to himself and pulled out a piece of white paper and wrote "Contents of Eve's divination" on it.

After checking that everything was correct, he held it in his hand.

"Do you need me to leave?" Eve asked, pointing at the door.

Klein shook his head, half-lying in the chair, and quickly fell asleep with the help of meditation.

In a trance, Klein saw a table of delicious food in an unfamiliar room, including cheese steak, lamb stewed with tender peas, and beef stewed with potatoes...

The scene lasted only a moment. Klein woke up from his dream, rubbed his brow, and said hesitantly, "Uh... dinner?"

Eve burst out laughing. She said nothing. She took out eight pennies from her wallet and handed it to Klein.

"No," Klein waved his hand and refused, "I think my divination was wrong."

From Eve's reaction, it was clear that the result of his divination was absolutely far from the actual situation, and he was embarrassed to accept the money.

"Even if the divination result is wrong, you still have to pay, right?" Eve said with a hint of teasing in her tone.

Klein immediately realized that Eve was probably talking about him asking Gracis to do divination.

At that time, he asked Mr. Glacis to predict whether the Antigonus family notes had been picked up by someone. Mr. Glacis gave the result that no, but in fact, it had already been taken away by Riel Biber.

"And you're not wrong." Eve said with a smile: "8 pence, only 8 pence, this is a respect for divination."

Klein showed a bit of embarrassment on his face, and was suddenly speechless due to embarrassment.

"I'm leaving now. You should think about how to explain to Melissa."

Eve stood up and walked out of the room slowly.

Klein felt a headache when he thought about the sudden rain he would face when he got home.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Klein got home later than usual tonight, but he still hurried back before Benson got home.

After opening the door, the only person who greeted him was Melissa, who was sitting on the sofa and looked unhappy.

Melissa gave Bella a day off and waited for Klein at home alone.

"Melissa, I'm back."

Klein tried his best to imitate his usual tone and pretend to be ignorant.

"Klein," Melissa immediately stood up from the sofa after hearing Klein's voice and said with a serious expression, "I need to talk to you about something."

Klein appropriately showed some confusion and surprise, nodded and said, "Okay."

"Klein," Melissa took a deep breath and walked up to Klein. "I went to the Fortune Teller Club in Howls today. The receptionist there said that you are a real fortune teller."

"Klein, although I don't know when you became interested in divination, it is a hobby, a reasonable hobby. Although it is surprising that you are a real fortune teller, I will still support you."

"But Klein, you have to explain to me…" Melissa's expression became more serious. She clutched the hem of her skirt with both hands and asked, "Your membership fee is 5 pounds. Where does this income come from?"

"Also, is there really a company in Klein that would give a history consultant who has just been employed for a few weeks a promotion and a raise? Does the profession of history consultant really require learning martial arts?"

Klein showed a bit of surprise on his face, as if he had not expected Melissa to ask this. He said in a panic, "Melissa, my income is all legal income."

"Of course I know," Melissa said seriously, "I'm worried that you've been deceived by that company."

really...

Klein's expression eased a little, but he was thinking about how to deepen the misunderstanding.

Only when Melissa starts to doubt herself will she continue to explore and finally unearth something extraordinary.

(End of this chapter)Chapter 119 Bad Mood

Chapter 119: Bad Mood

"Although these do sound incredible, the truth is always magical, Melissa," Klein explained seriously, but his eyes were a little evasive. "That security company has cooperation with the government and is definitely a formal company. In addition to collecting and protecting ancient artifacts, it also accepts some commissions. Some of these commissions are private commissions, but more are official commissions. Those who complete the commissions can get a certain commission, and the 5 pounds comes from the commission."

Melissa frowned and looked at Klein. She always felt that Klein was hiding something from them. "I want to go to your workplace to take a look. Is that okay?"

"Well..."

"No?" Melissa frowned and asked, "I'm not going there as a family member. Doesn't that security company also accept private commissions? I'm going there as a client."

"You don't have any commissions, and this is a lot of unnecessary expenses..."

Under Melissa's gaze, Klein's voice became lower and lower, and finally he just shut his mouth.

"I will control my expenses," Melissa said. Then, as if she had thought of something, a look of distress appeared on her face. "In terms of unnecessary expenses, Klein, you spent a full five pounds."

Klein fell silent and immediately agreed, "It's just too late now... You don't have time during school hours. Let's go next Sunday."

Melissa pursed her lips and stared at her brother with a sharp gaze. Klein seemed a little uncomfortable being stared at, and took the initiative to look away, staring closely at the sofa behind Melissa, as if there was something unusual about the sofa.

After a long while, Melissa opened her mouth and asked, "Klein, are you hiding something from us?"

Klein's body froze for a moment, and he didn't know how to answer.

This was the result of his guidance, and he knew exactly what Melissa was referring to.

Seeing Klein's reaction, Melissa knew that she had guessed correctly. She lowered her voice and advised him soothingly, "Klein, we are family. You don't need to hide it from us. No matter what happens, we will face it together with you."

No, Melissa, you don't know… A feeling of helplessness and sadness surged into Klein's heart. He raised his head and moved his eyes slowly like a rusty machine.

The girl's brown skirt appeared in his sight. Due to long-term washing, the long skirt had faded a little, and white traces could be seen on the fabric. Although Klein already had a considerable income and could buy Melissa many beautiful and fashionable skirts, Melissa was reluctant to part with them and always wore old clothes.

Klein's gaze paused after it touched the hem of her skirt. He lowered his head, looked away again, and stared at the sofa again, silently expressing his response.

Melissa frowned. She was not angry, but she always felt depressed, as if something was blocking her heart.

"Okay, Klein, since you don't want to talk, I won't continue asking," Melissa suppressed the annoyance in her heart and said, "You are acting strange today. Is it because of something you are hiding?"

Without waiting for Klein to answer, Melissa whispered again, "Take me to your company next Sunday."

"Now, we need to get dinner ready before Benson gets home."

After she finished speaking, Melissa walked past Klein and headed towards the kitchen.

Klein turned around and looked at the girl's back. He silently put down his cane and hat, took off his coat and hung it on the sofa, and followed her into the kitchen.

Benson was the last one to return home among the Moretti siblings. When he got home, he saw mouth-watering food on the table and a weird atmosphere among his younger siblings around the table.

Hearing the door open, Melissa and Klein simultaneously raised their heads to look at their brother at the door, smiled, and then lowered their heads.

Benson's heart skipped a beat, and he felt that there was something really strange about his home.

"Ahem..." Benson cleared his throat twice, took off his coat and asked, "Where is Bella?"

Normally, the maid would appear at the door as soon as the master entered the house and take away the clothes that the master took off.

"Bella is taking a day off today." Melissa replied. Benson vaguely felt that there was something wrong with Melissa's tone.

Melissa and Klein...had a fight?

An incredible idea suddenly popped up in Benson's mind. Because of family reasons, even though Benson worked hard so that his younger brothers and sisters would not have to worry about the family, Klein and Melissa were still precocious since childhood and had never quarreled.

As soon as this thought came to him, Benson thought about it carefully for two seconds. He felt that it was more and more possible. He suddenly felt a little amused and happy about the changes in Klein and Melissa.

Benson put his coat away, acted like a brother, cleared his throat twice, and asked, "What's wrong with you?"

"nothing."

Klein and Melissa answered in unison.

Benson smiled like a kind father, "I'm not a curly-haired baboon. It's not like there's nothing going on between you two."

Klein and Melissa didn't answer.

"Okay, okay," Benson touched his forehead with a look of confusion, "It seems I have to add some parenting books to the reading list. It's not too late to learn now. After all, you just learned how to quarrel."

"No quarrel," Klein sat up straight and replied in a muffled voice, "I won't quarrel with Melissa."

Melissa nodded. They really didn't have a fight, they were just in a bad mood.

"There's nothing wrong with quarreling," Benson sat on a chair and said to his two younger brothers and sisters, "Emperor Roselle once said that fighting is a manifestation of intimacy, and quarreling is a manifestation of deep love."

"We really didn't quarrel," Melissa shook her head. "It's just that something happened that made us feel very bad."

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

"Is that so..." Benson said with disappointment and relief. He looked at his depressed brother and sister and suddenly said, "Let's go traveling during the New Year holiday. Traveling can make people happy."

Klein was stunned and lowered his head in silence.

"We are just in a bad mood," Melissa frowned and said, "We can recover tomorrow. There is no need to travel at all, and it is still several months before the New Year."

"Why not take a trip? We really need a trip," Benson recalled the contents of the magazine, with a look of yearning in his eyes. "Jianhai County is warm even in the cold winter, and Bansi Port is known as the 'Weather Museum'... There are many, many places worth traveling, Melissa. We can't spend our whole lives in Tingen."

"We didn't have the ability before, but now we have it. I want to take you and Klein to see many places. Let's go to Jianhai County for the first time."

Klein felt his eyes getting sore. He closed them tightly, took a few deep breaths, and used his clown abilities to cover up the abnormality.

"But Benson," Klein said, "you need to prepare for the future government employee recruitment exam, and the exam will be around the New Year."

Benson was stunned for a moment, and said with some embarrassment: "Is that so? Then we can only do it next year. What do you think?"

Melissa quietly grasped the hem of her skirt with both hands under the table, her expression full of longing and hesitation.

If I travel, it will probably cost a lot...

Benson saw Melissa's hesitation at a glance and said, "Melissa, this is a normal middle-class life. If you don't have the experience of traveling, you will be laughed at."

After saying that, Benson glanced at Klein, hoping that Klein would cooperate with him like before.

Klein received Benson's message. He opened his mouth, but then closed it again. Nothing came out between his lips.

Benson, who had waited a long time for help, looked up and glanced at Klein in surprise.

"Yes." Seeing Benson's look, Klein pursed his lips and said, "And we can keep our expenses within an affordable range."

Klein and Benson worked together as tacitly as usual and convinced Melissa.

"It's settled," Benson raised his beer and said in celebration, "We'll travel during the New Year holiday next year."

(End of this chapter)Chapter 120 Another Member

Chapter 120 Another Member

"Mr. Fool, you don't look well."

Eve supported her face with her right hand and spoke while half leaning against the long table.

Klein reluctantly raised his eyes. He was in no mood to dwell on Eve's name. He leaned back in the bronze chair in a somewhat decadent manner.

He felt like a student before his graduation exams, afraid and expectant at the same time, wanting that day to come soon but also wanting it to come slowly, conflicted and helpless. Every minute and every second he felt like ants were crawling in his heart, and he counted the countdown in agony.

"It's not a bad thing actually. At least you have one more time point that's favorable to you, right?" Eve said with her hands clasped together and her chin supported.

Time node... This was the argument Klein had used to convince himself.

Klein turned his head and looked at Eve. He did not tell Eve his specific thoughts at the time, nor did he tell her what happened last night, but he seemed to know everything.

"You really didn't use divination?"

Klein turned his head and looked at the endless dome. The dark red stars were flowing in the gray mist.

"I watched it last night," Eve replied.

"What did you predict yesterday?"

"you guess."

Hearing this, Klein turned his head and looked at Eve. He was silent for a few seconds and finally said nothing.

He felt that the content of Eve's divination should not be as simple as "dinner", but Klein was not a person who liked to dig into the details, and this truth had no appeal to him at the moment.

Klein silently took out his pocket watch, opened the cover, calculated the time in his mind, and pulled Derek into the Sefirah Castle.

Derrick looked a little awkward when he appeared at his seat, sitting upright on the bronze chair.

Then, two red lights emerged, and "Justice" and "The Hanged Man" also arrived above Sefirah Castle.

"Good afternoon, Mr. Fool."

Audrey's cheerful voice rang out in the ancient palace. The girl looked up and immediately saw the figure next to the "Hanged Man".

New member!

Audrey and Alger immediately noticed Derrick's presence.

"This is 'Sun'." Eve introduced.

Alger frowned slightly, then relaxed his brows in an instant, as if nothing had happened.

Does the Queen know about the new members? Or is the Queen present when the new members join?

If it is the latter, then it means that after the Tarot Club ends, The Fool will leave The Queen alone.

Great, we've grown a step further, Mr. Fool is really awesome... Audrey thought optimistically.

After introducing Derrick, Eve dutifully introduced Alger and Audrey to Derrick.

What language is this?

Derrick thought in confusion, a language he had never heard before, but he could understand it.

Is it because of Mr. Fool?

As soon as this thought came to mind, it quickly occupied Derrick's mind. He lowered his head humbly, becoming more respectful.

"Mr. Fool, I found another page of Roselle's diary," Audrey said happily, "I will imagine the contents right away."

"Roselle's diary?" Derrick repeated with some confusion. This was something completely unfamiliar to him.

Hmm?

What language is this?

As soon as Derrick opened his mouth, Audrey immediately noticed something was wrong.

Although she had never come into contact with it, she could understand it... Audrey quietly raised her head and glanced at the Fool, and in her heart she marveled at Mr. Fool's strength and wisdom.

This seems to be Giant language...

Does anyone still speak Giant language now... Alger frowned and thought. He didn't think it was surprising that The Fool could speak Giant language and that they could understand Giant language. A god-like existence must be powerful and wise.

"Well, maybe if I call it something else, you'll be more familiar with it," Audrey said, "Emperor Roselle's Notes."

"I'm sorry," Derrick said confusedly, "I don't know."

Audrey was surprised for a moment, and said incredulously: "Do you know Emperor Roselle?"

Derrick still shook his head. "Is he a famous person? But he is not mentioned in the history books of the City of Silver."

"Silver City? I've never heard of this place... where is it?" Audrey asked tentatively. Like Derrick, "Silver City" was also an unfamiliar word to Audrey.

Alger remained silent, but listened carefully to the conversation between the two.

"Aren't you from the City of Silver?" This was the first time Derrick saw people from outside the City of Silver. He immediately asked, "Which city-state are you from? Where is your location?"

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Audrey was stunned for a moment, and nothing came out of her lips.

"Justice" and "The Hanged Man" did not know the origin of "The Sun" and misunderstood his meaning.

Derrick immediately realized that this was a gathering where the identities of the members were hidden, and they couldn't possibly tell him the answer.

Although he was a little disappointed, Derrick chose to respect the rules here and cherish this opportunity.

"I'm sorry," Audrey said apologetically, "I didn't mean to find out your address. I was just curious..."

Derrick shook his head, indicating that he didn't care.

Audrey heaved a sigh of relief and stopped talking about the previous topic. She began to concentrate on recalling the contents of Russell's diary and copying it onto paper.

Klein waved his hand, and Roselle's diary came into his hands.

Although it was only one page, Klein was very satisfied.

"It's December 20th, and the new year is about to begin, but the feedback I've received one after another has left me very confused and embarrassed."

"There is no oil in this world! There is no oil in this world!"

No oil? Or was it not found for some reason?

Klein's pupils shrank as he pondered doubtfully. If there was no oil, the world's industrial development might have taken a different path.

This shattered some of Klein's beautiful fantasies.

Fortunately, there are electricity and magnetism in this world, so I can focus on investing in these areas in the future... Klein continued reading while searching for a solution in his mind.

"December 21st..."

"On December 22, the environment in the old town of Lishe was so dirty that it was unacceptable... rubber trees."

"December 23rd, maybe I should consider that suggestion and leave a way out for myself outside the Church of the God of Craftsmen. For example, join that ancient, secretive organization that secretly influences the world situation?"

An ancient, secretive organization that secretly influences world affairs?

Sounds impressive... Klein continued reading, hoping to learn the name of the organization.

"December 24th, oh my god! I can't accept it! Eve was actually a man before! He was a man! A man! Is this reasonable! Is this reasonable!"

"Damn it! Such a beautiful face!"
