Chapter 33: The Mechanical Pack
"Welcome to my secret garden, where you are the first and only guest"
"If you can, please"
"Alan! Allan! Thorpe happily ran to find Alan, only to find him still sitting in a daze.
"Thorpe?"
"What are you doing?! The ceremony is over! Thorpe pulled him up from the stool: "Mother said she wanted to see you, let me ask you if you have time to have lunch together today." β
I don't know if my uncle will go back immediately, but Alan said to Thorpe, "I'll contact my uncle first, and I'll get back to you right away." β
He turned on the terminal and sent out a communication request, and soon got the pass, Rolf appeared on the holographic screen, and Alan quickly asked, "Have you already gone back?" β
"No," Rolf glanced at the tall boy behind his nephew, and said to Allen, "I still have some things to attend to, if you have other arrangements now, you can go first, and in two hours, I'll come to you." β
"Got it!" Ending the correspondence, Alan patted Thorpe on the shoulder: "Alright, let's go." β
The young man who had just been seen by Major General Rolf was standing upright immediately unfolded a simple (silly) and thick (angry) smile, and hooked his hand to Allen's neck: "Your uncle is so imposing, I especially admire such a soldier, so handsome!" β
Alan showed an expression of pride, but he didn't forget to push the other party's big head away: "You should be so handsome in the future, hurry up, don't make Mrs. Catherine wait for a long time." β
Sitting in a cafeteria in the academy, Catherine looked at the boy in front of her gently: "I haven't seen you for a long time, it looks like I've grown a little taller." I heard Thorpe say that you got a good score in the exam, but I didn't have a chance to congratulate you in person. β
"Thank you." In front of such a kind elder, Alan, who had never dealt with a woman of this age in his life except for Daisy, smiled shyly.
Catherine carefully observed Alan's expression, although she knew about this teenager in the past, but she cared about her son Thorpe, and she also liked Alan very much, so she was a little worried that what happened some time ago would affect the friendship between the two.
This time she came in person and found that a qiΔ was as usual, and she could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
However, the things that should be explained must be explained clearly face to face, misunderstanding this kind of thing is caused by "I don't say I think you know, but you don't know".
"This kid heard that I was not adapted, so he rushed back without a head, and he didn't know how to use his brain at all, who would go to a place for a few months before he suddenly appeared unadaptable?" Thinking of this, Lady Catherine looked gracefully at her son, who had a long head and no heart.
Alan also glanced at the young man who was criticized by his mother as "headless and brainless" and didn't dare to refute, and felt a little funny in his heart, but he controlled his expression very well, and comforted Mrs. Catherine and said, "If it were me, I would definitely rush back immediately." β
The unhappy thing finally passed, and Catherine didn't want to interrupt the joy of reunion after a long absence, so she brought up another topic: "Sure enough, it's worthy of the Royal Academy, it looks so big!" Uncle Thorpe's butler sent him here last time, and this is my first time here, so I'll be sure to take a good stroll around and see the grandeur of the Royal Academy. β
Since experiencing the "house arrest" of himself and the "deception" of Thorpe, the McAdam family has been very attentive to their mother and son recently, and has a posture of making amends.
The head of the family, Adrien, even came to attend Thorpe's entrance ceremony in person to show his closeness, and allowed Mrs. Catherine to spend half a day at the school and reunite with her son.
McAdam was innocent and suffered a lot of losses this time, but Catherine knew that Adrien was actually in a good mood - his brother and nephew, who were staring at his seat, could solve it all at once, and anyone would be happy.
Adrian's wife, Enid, had recently been extremely "intimate" to Catherine, taking her in and out of various social occasions, and at a private tea party, they also ran into Madame Leonie, the wife of Major General Rolf and Ellen's aunt.
After chatting lukewarmly, Enid vaguely and scribbly apologized, but the other party didn't know whether he didn't understand or pretended to be stupid, so he didn't accept this apology that might not be sincere.
Enid also advised Catherine more than once, keeping Thorpe and Allen at arm's length, of course, on the grounds that the other party's qualifications were too poor and there was no need to be friends.
Catherine was very confused at first.
It stands to reason that McAdam was obviously at fault in this matter, and he also offended Adrington fiercely. If you look at it with normal thinking, you should try your best to mend the relationship between the two families, after all, the other party is also a famous nobleman.
But the reality is the opposite, they have not taken any remedial measures.
Catherine was keenly aware that perhaps the MacAdams had a dislike for Adrington, and did not wish to improve their relationship at all!
However, she had not heard of any superficial conflicts between the two before, and it had always been that the well water did not interfere with the river water, and Adrien had now transferred to a civilian position because of a genetic defect, and he was not in the same legion as Rolf, let alone competent.
So, what is the purpose of this unprovoked alienation?
Adrington has long been a loyal supporter of the royal family of Hereward, and the previous head of the family, Randall, even died trying to rescue Prince Salvin. Adrington has kept a low profile in recent years, but with his usual family tradition, the head of the family, Rolf, is extremely upright, and should still be pro-Royal.
And at the moment McAdam is clearly not close to him, right?
Lady Catherine cleared some of her thoughts, and for a moment she was both worried and a little helpless, but she secretly swore in her heart that she must not let her Thorpe get involved in the family infighting, let alone let him fall into a bigger scheme!
She looked at the two teenagers in front of her lovingly.
- I wish they were growing up soon enough to protect themselves, their families and friends!

After having eaten with Madame Catherine and meeting her uncle again, it was late afternoon when Alan hurried back to the main castle of Sharman, where Prince Salvin was about to leave Franche and take the little tiger back to the Serentu Palace.
The little guy also realized that the time of separation was coming, and he was usually making a fuss about playing games at this time, but now he was motionless in Alan's arms, with his little head against his chest, very pitiful.
Alan hugged the heavy little tiger and whispered comfort, and then Prince Salvin, who was ready, walked in. He took over the sullen youngest son and said to Allen, "Let Kyle bring the cubs to Franche again after a while." β
The little tiger's drooping little ears moved, huh? Brother cub play!
It grasped the point obediently, raised its little head, and whined at Prince Salvin.
Alan couldn't understand what the little tiger was saying, but the child's father could still understand its "bargaining". Salvin slapped its little ass amusefully and said to Kyle, who walked in, "If you're okay next weekend, come and pick it up." β
Boarding the prince's special warship, His Royal Highness Salvin sat on the sofa with his young son in his arms, looked out the window, and couldn't help but think of someone's previous audience.
"Thank you very much for taking care of Alan, but it's very important to have a good relationship with your classmates, and if possible, I still want him to stay in his dorm."
His Highness Salvin and the cubs had already left, and Alan naturally no longer stayed in the main castle, and he returned to the dormitory that night.
As a result of the previous incident, Pei Ji was also affected, and the college booked a round-trip ferry ticket for his parents and arranged a special guest house on campus so that they could go to Emperor Star to attend his son's entrance ceremony as compensation.
Pei Ji accompanied his parents in the guest house and did not go back to the dormitory, Alan ate dinner alone, returned to the room, and connected to Daisy's terminal.
Daisy, as usual, took the lop-eared rabbit in her arms and asked it to greet Alan.
The little guy was holding a huge potato, and when he found the owner's face on the screen, he was very excited, and took a big bite of the potato with his pink three-petal mouth, and chewed it happily.
ββLooking at the owner's face, the baby eats deliciously! It turns out that this is called beautiful and delicious! (Fog)
"How's it going, it's going to be lively today, right?" Daisy couldn't lift the little fat man anymore, so she had to put it on her lap: "Madame was in a very good mood when she came back, Miss Elena took the first exam, and I heard that the college issued a certificate today, Madame immediately found someone to frame it, hung it on the wall of the living room, and looked at it all night." β
Daisy looked at Alan expectantly and asked him, "Didn't you also get seventh?" What about certificates? β
When Alan shook her head, she was disappointed and angry: "These are all ranked, how can the academy treat them differently?!" β
Alan looked at Daisy, who was upset about herself, and his heart was warm, and he comforted her softly: "When I get the first in the exam, I must give the certificate to Daisy, and Daisy will also help me frame it and hang it on the wall of the room at that time." β
Daisy listened to his words, as if she saw the walls full of certificates, and she was very happy.
Seeing that she was feeling better, Alan said to her: "I submitted a written application to the dormitory before, and with a reply today, I can bring Qiuqiu to Franche for an examination this week, and if it is okay, I can bring Qiuqiu into the dormitory." β
"There will be no problem, where can I find such a clean and healthy bunny?" Daisy lifted the lop-eared rabbit.
The potato had already entered the little one's belly, and it was wiping its mouth and washing its face with its front paws, and when it saw that Daisy and Alan were looking at it, it immediately shook its little paws up and down
Two days later, before the lop-eared rabbit was sent to Franche, the random task of making the secondary medicinal plant extractor in the system was also carried out, and Alan completed the routine call with the little tiger before entering the system space.
If the first time he overused his spiritual power, he suddenly "opened his mind", then this time, under the dual blessing of the sixth-level medicinal plant syntheticizer and the Ebubi crystal, Allen's spiritual power seemed to be on the express line, and it became more and more smooth to use!
As the prompt for the completion of the system task sounded, Alan wiped the sweat from his head and clicked on the system panel.
The system had been upgraded to level twelve, and the seeds of the two medicinal plants had entered the warehouse compartment, and he couldn't believe his eyes when he opened the long-awaited mechanical gift bag.
