Chapter 415: Surprise and Worry

Melissa and Freya made their way up the stairs to the second floor, and when they reached the ballroom and looked around, the latter easily found the location of Edith's mother, Mrs. Fassin, and walked towards each other with a smile.

The former, on the other hand, was surprised to find that her brother Benson was chatting with a beautiful lady.

It's a pretty incredible thing...... You know, for Benson's marriage, Melissa has a lot of headaches, and more than once hints that her brother walks around with the neighbor's Viscount Abner Blaine, so that he can learn from the "Merry Detective" how to socialize with girls.

Unfortunately, Benson seemed to be mistaken and persuaded her to go next door less...... It made her sulk for a while.

But now, what did she see? Her brother is really enlightened?

Melissa couldn't help but smile "relieved".

At this time, Benson also spotted Melissa in his spare eye, so he called her to the front and introduced to the lady with whom he had a good conversation, "Ruth, this is my sister Melissa. ”

After saying that, he turned to Melissa again and said, "This is Miss Ruth Brooke, it's mine...... Well, colleague, and good friends. ”

It seems that it is right for you to go and contact Abner Bryando, look, isn't this a "good friend"? Inexplicably excited, Melissa still greeted each other very politely on the surface.

The lady smiled back, and after a few more words with their siblings, she returned to her parents.

Seeing that Benson's gaze was still following the other party's distant figure, Melissa couldn't help coughing and said, "Benson, will this Miss Ruth be my sister-in-law in the future?" ”

"Will ......" Benson subconsciously replied before reacting, and then carefully observed Ruth in the distance a few times, and after confirming that she didn't hear it, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, turned his head to meet his sister's burning eyes, and said hesitantly, "Melissa, I'm still trying." ”

"Then you know her family situation, her criteria for choosing a mate, her personal preferences, her values...... And most importantly, of course, does she have feelings for you at all? Melissa asked as she thought back to one of Miss Wall's loves.

"This ......," Benson was speechless when asked, for nothing else was clear except for something about Ruth's family situation.

Seeing this, Melissa shook her head helplessly and whispered, "Benson, I suggest that you go and study with our neighbor, Viscount Abner Blayn...... If you can learn a tenth of him, maybe you'll be able to catch up with Miss Ruth. ”

Benson smiled wryly, he wanted to learn, but now that he was a viscount, and he rarely held banquets and balls, how could he be embarrassed to always visit?

Besides, it's too late to study temporarily, right?

Melissa also guessed a little about her brother's distress, so she decided to use the extraordinary item to enter the lady's dream tonight and ask about it, which can be regarded as a help for her stupid brother.

- Although the "Nightmare Badge" that Klein sent her has expired, her brother's colleague, Leonard the Night Watcher, later gave her a similar item, but with a limit on the number of times it can be used.

……

October 1st, early Saturday morning.

When Melissa compiled the results of last night's dream exploration into a booklet and handed it to Benson, the airship finally arrived at the destination of the trip, Beldan, the "City of Film and Television", after a night of flight.

In the distance, a row of huge white letters was erected on the top of a high hill on the western outskirts of the city, which together formed the word "Berdan" in Rune.

Immediately after, the theme park in the city. Various buildings and many man-made wonders also caught the eyes of the passengers on the airship, attracting a burst of exclamations.

At this moment, Benson Melissa did not discuss Miss Ruth's affairs anymore, but used the breakfast provided by the airship while admiring the fairytale-like city of Beldin below through the porthole.

"Daisy, look! That's the 'ghost castle' you filled in the 'Dreams' section of the survey, right? Wow! Viscount Bryan actually brought it to life! ”

"Yes, Freya...... You see, that's the Great Pyramid of Crewe in the Southern Continent that you filled out...... It's been moved too! ”

Listening to the exclamations of the sisters at the next table, Benson also smiled and pointed to a robot statue about ten meters tall, and said to his sister, "That's the 'Optimus Prime' you want to see, right?" Unexpectedly, the protagonist in the story of Russell the Great was also moved to Berdan. ”

"Right...... But it's not quite what I imagined......" Melissa looked at it and frowned, "where is its boiler?" Didn't design the chimney? Although Rosselley says that it uses energy blocks, how can it run without a steam engine after it transforms into a vehicle?

"But Viscount Abner Blaine certainly wouldn't have made such an obvious mistake...... Is that something I'm overlooking? ”

Forehead...... Melissa, I don't understand what you're talking about...... Benson closed his mouth, and did not disturb Melissa, who was lost in thought, but opened the pamphlet that his sister had handed him about Miss Ruth's hobbies, and began to study it carefully.

It is said that Melissa asked many people last night to inquire, and I don't know if it is accurate.

……

At the same time, on the platform of the train station in Beldan, Hugh helped a middle-aged lady who looked to be about forty years old out of the carriage, followed by a handsome young man.

The middle-aged lady looked five or six points similar to Hugh, except that her face was much more mature and haggard, and her temples were even dyed with a little white silk.

The boy wore narrow-rimmed glasses and had short, slightly fluffy hair similar to that of Hugh.

They were none other than Hugh's mother, Lady Carly, and her brother, Lo Dilcha.

"Hugh, when we come to Beldan, won't we be hunted again?" Lady Carly, who was walking carefully on the platform, asked again.

"Of course, this is Abner's fiefdom, it's very safe, you don't have to worry about it at all." Hugh took the trouble to explain.

Listening to her daughter's proud tone when she spoke of the Viscount Beldan, Lady Carly couldn't help but sigh deeply.

It seemed to her that the Viscount was willing to shelter the family because of the unimaginable price paid by his daughter, so she did not believe Hugh's statement that they were friends.

Friend...... At first, her husband had many friends, but none of them were willing to accept their family...... From this point of view, this "Viscount Berdan" is a person of affection...... It's just that the reviews are not very good.

Hugh didn't care what her mother was thinking, she took the two of them on a good tour of Beldin City, and then arrived at the Viscount's mansion before lunch.

And when she saw a group of witch maids coming out of the mansion, Mrs. Carly's heart once again worried about her daughter.

Because no matter how you look at it, this team of maids is no worse than her daughter, but she has a better figure, and she intuitively knows that none of them are simple goods.
