Chapter 191 Benson and Melissa finally arrived in Bay City
Thursday, Backlund, Sherlock Office.
Early in the morning, Klein sent a letter to Sharon and Maric. The content of the letter was naturally a reply to the matter of hunting members of the Rose School.
After careful consideration and divination on the gray fog, Klein decided to participate in this operation.
As for the reward, Klein plans to discuss it the next time he meets Sharon and Maric.
"I don't have a shortage of magical items now, but adding too many negative effects would be bad. Lin Ruo also left me enough books on occult knowledge. I don't even have time to study on my own...Do I need a gold list? Well, I'm really lacking recently.
Money." Klein muttered, straightening his collar in front of the mirror, looking at his bookish face in the mirror, and smiled.
He was about to go out, not to do any commission, but to pick up someone at the station.
Benson and Melissa will arrive in Backlund this morning.
This is the result of Klein's divination.
"It's inconvenient to not have a mobile phone. Without divination, I wouldn't even know when to pick someone up." Klein walked out of Sherlock Office while missing the convenience that had come from mobile phones.
He walked to the street, called a trackless carriage, reported the address of Backlund Station, and sat in the carriage to think about how he would confess to Benson and Melissa when he received them later, and how he would explain to them the extraordinary
The matter of the person.
To be honest, given Klein's eloquence, this was not a difficult task, but Klein still felt a little nervous.
He was afraid that Benson and Melissa would blame him for hiding it and not understand his choice. He was also afraid that Benson and Melissa would understand him, support him, encourage him, but secretly worry about him because of his choice.
"But I have no way out..." Thinking of the mysterious gray fog and some of the information revealed in Lin Ruo's few words, Klein sighed.
"Benson and Melissa must also have the strength to protect themselves..."
He thought of Lin Ruo's words about war again, and for a moment he was full of worries about the future.
"Deng-deng-deng——"
The carriage drove through streets and soon arrived at Backlund Station. After paying, Klein got off the car, followed the crowd into the platform, and began to wait.
"Woo——"
Not long after, the sound of the steam train rang in Klein's ears, and then a steam train that looked very mechanically beautiful drove into the train and slowly stopped.
"Click——"
All the doors on the carriages opened with a clear sound, and Klein, who had been prepared, stepped into one of the carriages. As expected, after a while, he saw a familiar figure.
Benson was still wearing a formal suit, but it could be seen that the clothes were probably newly bought. He was holding a black luggage bag in one hand and loosening his collar with the other hand. It could be seen that he seemed a little nervous and embarrassed.
Melissa was wearing a white dress, carrying no luggage, and was looking around curiously. Soon she seemed to see something, and she showed an expression of surprise and surprise, "Klein?"
"Well, it's me." Klein went up to him and gave Melissa, who was a little excited and a little happy, a hug. Then he looked at Benson and said with a smile, "Give me the luggage."
"No, no, I can just carry it, it's not heavy anyway." Benson shook his head and rejected his brother's request. At the same time, he took care of Klein's complexion and seemed to be slightly relieved, "It seems that you have been doing well recently.
"
Although he has not yet seen Klein's living environment, whether a person is living well or not can be directly observed through his complexion. Benson knows that if Klein's life in Backlund is poor, he will definitely not have such a good complexion.
"Actually, I've been doing really well recently." Klein raised the corner of his mouth slightly, looked at his brother and sister in front of him, and said with a smile: "Benson, Melissa, welcome to Backlund, I'll take you there first
My house, let’s make some plans on how you want to go around in the future.”
Benson and Melissa naturally have no objection to this.
The three of them immediately walked out of the station. At this time, Melissa also recovered from the joy of seeing Klein. She thought of something and asked curiously and doubtfully: "Klein, my letter only said that it was probably here.
When the two came to Backlund, how did you know that we were on the steam train this morning? I originally planned to go directly to your house with Benson."
Melissa really didn't expect Klein to come to the station to pick someone up at first.
In the past, Klein might have fooled him out of it, but now that he has decided to confess to Benson and Melissa about the Beyonders, Klein decided to lay the groundwork first.
So he showed a slightly mysterious smile and said: "This is what divination told me."
"Divination?" Melissa was stunned for a moment. As a person who loves machines, she doesn't really believe in these mysterious things. But she couldn't help but have a best friend who loves occultism, so she was more or less interested in divination.
I have some understanding of things like that.
But understanding is understanding, and she never expected that one day, she would hear her brother say this to her in such a serious way. This made Melissa stunned for a moment, then she laughed and said: "Klain, you still have to
So humorous.”
Obviously, Melissa thought what Klein just said was a joke.
No, sister, this is not humorous, I am stating the facts.
Klein cursed in his heart, but did not directly refute it.
After all, we are still outside now. If we really want to give Benson and Melissa some extraordinary knowledge, we have to wait until we get home.
Soon, the three of them left the station. Klein fought against all odds (mainly to convince Melissa) and then called a trackless carriage. Soon, Klein brought his brother and sister to their current residence.
"Goddess, Klein, you, you actually live in a place like this?" Melissa stood in front of the door of No. 15 Minsk Street, looking at the single-family house in front of her in shock.
"How much does the rent for this house cost..."
She doesn't blame her for this. After all, although the place where Klein lives is not that good in Backlund, it is definitely not bad. It is much better than the house that the Moretti family rented in Tingen.
"Uh, Klein, are you sharing a house with someone else?" Benson mentally estimated the house in front of him and the possible rent. No matter how much he calculated, he thought it was sky-high.
In fact, the annual rent of 50 pounds was indeed a sky-high price for the original Moretti family.
"No, I usually live alone. Occasionally, my friends will come to stay for a few days." Klein shook his head and continued: "Go in, I will show you my new home, which will also be your new home in the future."
After speaking, Klein took the still surprised Benson and Melissa into the house.
If it wasn't shocking enough outside the house, after walking around inside the house, Melissa looked at Klein and her eyes changed to "What the hell did this prodigal kid rent?"
She was shocked. After being shocked, she estimated the possible rent, and Melissa felt her heart bleed.
Melissa, who has always been used to being frugal and eager to spend every penny, looked at Klein with a heartbroken and helpless look, and asked: "Klain, how much is the annual rent for this house?"
