"Dear Benjamin,

Well, I'm guessing you got goosebumps all over your body when you saw me by that name. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoActually, you can understand me as your teacher. (I've never confiscated students.) ）

Closer to home, your performance today was a real eye-opener. It's a big improvement from your last performance. At least there has been a lot of improvement in your skills, and when you're fine, you should have practiced a lot, right?

Of course, in return, I can tell you a location. On the outskirts of Cairo, the capital of Egypt, there is a grassland. Locals call it the Land of Thorns. Once there, you'll be able to meet the lich.

Don't thank me! There will be many opportunities for us to cooperate in the future. ”

Benjamin looked at the blank paper several times, then lit a fire from his hand and burned it.

"What did he say?" asked Lucien, curiously on the side, "why did you burn that piece of paper?" ”

"Something inconsequential. Benjamin didn't want to say, "I'll go first, Merry Christmas!"

Before Lucien could react, Benjamin had disappeared from his sight.

Back in the box, Daphne was in a daze.

However, the robot cat, now named David, is also missing. Benjamin thought for a moment, and then speculated that it must have disappeared with Leonardo da Vinci.

Patting Daphne on the shoulder, Benjamin smiled and asked, "What are you thinking?"

"Me!" Daphne said, looking away a little shyly, "I was thinking of something related to magic. By the way, you haven't mentioned it to me before, and you can play the piano. ”

"Really?" asked Benjamin, pretending to be surprised, "I thought I had mentioned it to you! What do you think of my performance?"

Daphne looked around uncomfortably before speaking to Benjamin. "Well, that's it! I don't know anything about music anyway, so who knows if you can play it well or not. ”

Benjamin chuckled, then said to Daphne, "Well, it seems that I will have a chance to give you more lessons in the future to popularize music knowledge." ”

After the show, Benjamin and Daphne got into the bus for the return trip. The driver of the Ludwig family has been waiting outside for a long time. When he saw Benjamin and Daphne come out, he rubbed his hands together excitedly, and then immediately opened the car door.

Benjamin and Daphne sat in the back seat of the car, and Benjamin tilted his head and said to Daphne, "Are you going back tonight?"

Daphne looked at the falling snow outside the car window, and her mood was a little depressed for some reason.

It wasn't until Benjamin asked the question again that Daphne reacted.

She looked at Benjamin with some embarrassment and whispered, "Well, I, I'm definitely going home." Otherwise, my mother would have gone berserk. ”

After Daphne finished speaking, she suddenly lowered her head, and a pair of big eyes full of aura stared at her legs.

"Okay. Benjamin didn't interfere too much, he lifted up and said to the driver in front of him, "Let's take Daphne home first." ”

Daphne didn't pretentiously refuse, but just said thank you to the driver and Benjamin.

When the driver parked the car in front of Greengrass Manor, Daphne stopped Benjamin, who was about to get out of the car.

"When my mother saw it, she would have been nagging for a long time. I'm very happy today, and your performance is really good. Daphne looked at Benjamin earnestly, and when she saw the little boy's face turned slightly red, Daphne suddenly felt better. She pulled out another newspaper from her bag.

"By the way, this newspaper you see if there is anything that can be improved. If not, it's the final version. ”

Benjamin took the newspaper and nodded. "Are you going to release it after school starts?"

"That's right, I'm planning to release it at Hogwarts first and see the feedback. Daphne replied with a smile.

At this time, an unfriendly urging suddenly sounded in the manor behind Daphne.

"Why don't you come home yet!

Daphne grimaced at Benjamin and hurried away.

"Miss Greengrass is a good girl. The driver sat in the front and said coldly.

"Oh," Benjamin said, surprised, "I know. What's the matter?"

"It's nothing," the driver looked very calm, but from his slightly playful eyes, it could be seen that he was an old driver. "I was just thinking, young master, you must not miss Miss Greengrass. ”

"I'm young. Benjamin said that, and closed his eyes cleanly.

He rubbed his head and sighed inwardly.

He didn't have much time to think about it right now.

Leonardo da Vinci's unexpected disappearance made Benjamin a little surprised, but also a little worried.

This kind of goodbye is often due to unexpected circumstances. What is it that threatens Leonardo da Vinci?

When she returned home, Mrs. Ludwig was sitting on the couch and watching television.

She took her wand and patted her skin, which was about the same delicate as that of an eighteen-year-old girl.

Benjamin knew that it was supposed to be a magic that would make it difficult for the skin to age.

"Coming back?" Mrs. Ludwig glanced at Benjamin and asked casually, "Is tonight's concert good?"

"Well," Benjamin said mercilessly, after a moment's thought, "what a disaster. I didn't expect Catherine to be so talentless. ”

"Benjamin, you won't make girls like you when you say that!" said Mrs. Ludwig, joking, "but I'm glad I didn't buy a ticket to the concert!"

"Really?" said Benjamin, shrugging his shoulders, "I went up and put on a performance! Offstage, a lot of the female audience looked like crazy." I think they still like me!"

Mrs. Ludwig shook her head, "You're getting better at talking now. Sure enough, I grew up. By the way, there are snacks left for you in the kitchen, and you must be hungry when you come back so late. ”

Benjamin's heart warmed, and he realized that he had unknowingly regarded Mr. and Mrs. Ludwig as if they were his real parents.

It's just that if they knew who they really were, they would hate themselves to death, right?" Benjamin thought to himself, and then immediately dismissed the idea.

He couldn't tell the Ludwigs the truth, at least not now, because he didn't have the capacity to live with the consequences.
