Chapter 1 Persecution Never Ends

Monday, Tingen——

When Klein woke up, the hands on his pocket watch already pointed to two o'clock in the afternoon.

He sat up in a daze, and it took several seconds before he finally woke up and yawned again.

Klein actually didn't get enough sleep because he had been writing a 5,000-word review since Saturday's special training.

Because there is no Internet in this era, and you cannot Baidu review templates and copy answers, Klein has to write every word of his review himself. And considering Lin Ruo's character, if he fools him, he will probably be beaten back and rewritten. Klein

The more I write, the more I consider every word, and the progress becomes even slower.

After finally staying up late to write out two thousand words, and getting an accommodation from Lin Ruo on Sunday, "I'll come back tomorrow to collect the review, and if you haven't finished writing by then, I'll have to wait for 20,000 words." Klein finished his theory class and was working on it.

I was about to rush for a review, but Blackthorn Security Company came in with another mission that was suspected of being an extraordinary incident.

Because Klein was still one personal mission away from becoming an official Nighthawk, Dunn naturally handed over the mission to him. Klein couldn't refuse, so he worked hard on the mission all afternoon.

In the end, the task was solved, and Klein himself successfully transferred from a civilian employee to an official night watcher. However, the day of the weekend passed like this. When reviewing the remaining 3,000 words, Klein did not write a single word.

There was no other way, so Klein could only spend the rest of the time frantically rushing forward with the manuscript, fully realizing what it means to have a pen, a lamp, a night, and a miracle.

In the end, he stayed up all night writing the review without even sleeping, so he went to the Blackthorn Security Company and handed the review to Lin Ruo.

However, due to his poor condition, Lin Ruo temporarily canceled Monday's special training and asked Dunn for a day off so that he could go back and catch up on his sleep.

Klein slept like this from morning until now.

Hmm... Klein touched his slightly shriveled stomach because he didn't have lunch, and silently came to the kitchen.

He first found last night's leftovers, heated them up, and ate a loaf of oatmeal bread without being picky, filling his stomach.

After eating and drinking, Klein opened the curtains. Because it was June, the sunshine outside the window was very bright, with scorching heat.

Klein looked through the window at the pedestrians with old and tattered clothes on the street below. After looking at them for a while, he let out a long breath.

Yesterday, he personally went to the East District of Tingen because of a mission. It must be said that this gave Klein a deeper understanding of the cruelty of the world and how bad the lives of the people at the bottom really are.

This is really a world where people's lives are like nothing... Klein thought in a trance, and his mood was inevitably a little heavy.

But he soon shook his head and suppressed this feeling. After all, he knew that he had to eat one bite at a time. With his current strength, even if he really wanted to do something to change society, he couldn't do it.

.

It’s better to study hard and think about how to improve the sequence...

With this thought in mind, Klein sat down at the desk, picked up the giant language textbook that he had already read for a while, and soon the time came to two-fifty.

Conan once again climbed onto the vague, boundless, gray, and empty mist, and sat on the high-backed chair at the top of the ancient mottled bronze long table.

Klein leaned back on his chair, waited for a while, and then stretched out his hand to point at the crimson stars symbolizing "Justice", "The Hanged Man" and "Chariot".



Backlund, Queens.

After once again discovering that she was being secretly observed by Susie, Justice Audrey sighed, and finally couldn't help but start educating her pet who was not good at acting:

"Susie, what you're doing is wrong. You're peeping. The audience should watch from their own position and openly..."

As for her education, Susie is now fully able to understand human language, but she has not yet learned to speak human language. She looked up at her master and wagged her tail in cooperation, which was quite a face-saving gesture.

After teaching the golden retriever a few words, and seeing that three o'clock was approaching, Audrey did not dare to waste any more time. She walked into the bedroom, read a few newspapers, put herself in the audience's state, and began to wait.



Sea of ​​Sonia, aboard the Blue Avenger.

Alger Wilson, the Hanged Man, had already sat in the captain's cabin in advance. He picked up the almost transparent glass of liquor in front of him and drank it down in one gulp.

This calmed his slightly trembling mood just now because he thought about the gathering that was about to begin, the response he got after chanting his name, and the mysterious fool.

Soon, he regained his usual calmness and composure.



Backlund, Lin Ruo's office.

After writing another letter to Xianyu and stating in the letter that he would return to his hometown in the near future to pick up the ancient book containing the rumors about the Abraham family, Lin Ruo finally received a reply from Xianyu Forsi.

Taking the letter, he returned to the desk in the room and sat down. Lin Ruo was not in a hurry to read the letter. He just took out his pocket watch and took a look. After confirming that it was about three o'clock in the afternoon, he put the letter on the desk and took a look at the other items on the table.

After reading the review written by Klein, I began to adjust my state.

Soon, crimson erupted from his body, swallowing him whole.

Accompanied by the familiar suddenness, when Lin Ruo opened his eyes again, he was already above the gray fog.

Lin Ruo glanced at Audrey the Righteous and Alger the Hanged Man who appeared next to the long bronze table at almost the same time as him. Finally, his eyes stayed on Klein the Fool for a second, then withdrew his gaze, stood up and saluted.

, smiled and said:

"Good afternoon, Mr. Fool! Your power is beyond our imagination. Although you may not need applause, I still want to celebrate your success here and praise your greatness."

Although Lin Ruo and Klein the Fool knew the details, in the eyes of Justice Audrey and Alth the Hanged Man, Mr. Chariot would naturally try to use the Fool's honorable name to perform ritual magic like them.

And since he was going to act, Lin Ruo would naturally perform the whole thing and persecute a certain fool in a small way.

Justice Audrey, who was originally planning to say hello to Mr. Fool and express her congratulations when she saw this, her original words were immediately swallowed, and in the end she could only echo Lin Ruo and express her praise for Mr. Fool.

The same goes for Alger the Hanged Man.

Here we go again, this guy... Although Klein has long been used to being persecuted like this by Lin Ruo, he is no longer as embarrassed as he was at the beginning, wanting to kick him out of the three rooms and one living room.

But at this moment, listening to Lin Ruo's words and looking at the Tarot Club members who expressed their praise for Mr. Fool one by one under his guidance, Klein was still a little helpless. However, as a powerful actor, on the surface, Klein still maintained his integrity.

Image of oneself as a fool:

"Very good. This shows that we are indeed on the right path. If you have something to do and are unable to attend the Tarot meeting in the future, please hold a ceremony to inform me in advance. Well, you only need to add the words 'Pray for a good dream' etc. in the incantation.

The content is modified with specific reasons.”

"OK."

All members of the Tarot Society naturally follow the good advice and have no objections to Mr. Fool’s proposal.

After a small interlude, it was naturally time to present Emperor Russell's diary to Mr. Fool. As expected, Justice Audrey collected a page of the diary. Alth the Hanged Man found nothing and had long wanted to

Okay, Lin Ruoze, who should provide Klein with a diary this week, also presented a page of his diary.

So it’s time for our Mr. Fool’s daily reading again.
