"Cuffs?"

Listening to the literal meaning, Eve thought it was probably referring to something that could tie the sleeve. But what exactly that thing is used for, and what it looks like, Eve doesn't know.

"These two things, that cufflink, can be regarded as an ornament. Because men are generally not suitable to wear too much jewelry, especially those in the upper class, they pay more attention to taste and status, even if it is expensive jewelry, wearing it is not solemn and formal enough. ”

Eve thought about it, as if she had never seen those high-status and older men on this earth wearing necklaces, earrings and the like, let alone other bells and whistles jewelry.

Of course, Eve knew what kind of person Lévy was talking about. She thinks of politicians from various countries who are often seen on the news on TV, and some rich people who also often appear in the news.

As for celebrities in another sense that can also be seen on TV, that is, those stars who are also very rich, seem to have a lot of status, and are more sought after by people, they often dress up how they are special, and there is absolutely no taboo as Levy said.

It's just that even Eve, who makes people feel that she doesn't understand this or that, knows very well that those star idols who seem to be more sought after by ordinary people can't compare their status with those rich people who are behind them in the first place, let alone those who hold more power than money.

The most common commissions Eve received when she was a killer in the past were those who targeted the rich and politicians. At the beginning, she was still a very simple little girl, and she only thought that the gangster bullies who usually looked evil were the worst people. But later, she gradually came into contact with more commissions, and she realized that sometimes those good people who were kind and kind on the surface were hiding deeper and heavier sins.

"It's not dignified to wear jewelry, but there are always men who want to dress up. So in addition to everyone's neat dressing, those people can only use their brains in some places on their bodies that are not very conspicuous and do not feel strange to look at. ”

"Like buttons or something?"

Eve understood what Lévy meant.

"Buttons, ties, tie clips, and so on. When these things first appeared, they may have had their own role in their own right. But now those original roles are no longer important, and no one cares about it. The meaning of the existence of these things now is the ornament of those men of status and taste who pay attention to seriousness and solemnity. It's like the watches you've seen in the store that sell more expensive than a car or a house. People who buy them don't care how accurately the technology applied in those watches can make the watch run accurately, they just want an ornament that doesn't make people gossip. People who really care about the accuracy of the watch can just buy those electronic watches, no matter how ingenious the mechanical things are, they can't be more accurate than the electronically controlled things. ”

Eve nodded as she listened. Of course, she remembered the malls that Lévy had taken her to, and the sky-high watches she had seen with a long list of numbers marked on them. At that time, Lévy also explained to her how powerful the technology used in those watches was. Eve, she admits that it is ingenious to be able to design a mechanism that defends gravity with a purely mechanical structure. But just to make a watch more accurate every day for less than a second, but it takes so much effort and so much more money, for a girl with the most advanced technology crystallization in her body, those are obviously a very meaningless waste.

Now listening to Levi's explanation, Eve finally understands the meaning of the existence of those things. Although she still can't understand that kind of psychology, she does know that some people have that need. The need for material things to satisfy oneself is not even for others to see, or simply for self-satisfaction.

"That's, that'...... Sleeve...... Is that the same way?"

Eve furrowed her eyebrows, a little unsure if that was what Levi had just said. 'Receiving' so much 'knowledge' at once, it makes the girl seem to be a little malabsorbed.

In fact, it stands to reason that the romance novels that Eve often reads, because they are specifically aimed at female readers, often describe a lot of scenes of petty bourgeois life that are close to fashion and high quality of life, right?

Girls who generally like to read romance novels generally give people the feeling that they are more literary and sentimental, and their daily dresses are not necessarily fashionable, but they often at least conform to their own taste and style.

But although Eve also reads novels every day, it feels completely different from the style of that kind of petty bourgeois girl. Is this because the books she reads every day are actually carefully selected by herself, and it just so happens that she doesn't like the content of books that cater to that type of girl, or is it because Eve is actually a 'fast read' who likes to skip over content that she is not interested in?

But then again, Eve's interest in reading seems to have suddenly waned a lot lately. In the past, every day after dinner at home, Eve and Yuki Nagato could be seen sitting side by side reading a book like two 'guardian saints', as if it hadn't been seen in the living room of McDowell's house for several days.

"The armbands? huh...... Anyway, there are similarities and differences. ”

Levi subconsciously touched his arm, he naturally didn't have the habit of wearing that kind of thing. In fact, he hardly had the habit of wearing any superfluous ornaments. Whether it's jewelry that gentlemen disdain, or tie clips and cuffs that some young people think are the embodiment of sullenness, Lévy never has anything on him.

The most common combination of a light-colored shirt and dark trousers is Levy's logo. Except in the colder season, he will add a jacket like his colleagues at the right time, so as not to make himself too eye-catching. Levy's image can be said to have changed almost nothing throughout the year.

"Armbands are something that is functional for some people. For example, civil servants in Western countries, such as police officers, and school teachers, have some habits of using that thing. They wear armbands to facilitate the prevention of sleeves from falling off. ”

Lévy stretched out his arm and gave Eve two strokes to make her understand.

"It's not convenient to work in long-sleeved clothes, but I don't want to wear short-sleeved clothes, so I use those things?"
