Chapter 166: Imitation
For a moment, Yvonne really followed Brimer's words.
She knew that Dr. Kraft had come to Westminburg from Comfort Harbour for what was called a "scholarly gathering".
The phrase "free travel with meals and travel expenses" does not prevent the value of this in action. Even if you don't understand the specific meaning, it's easy to understand that it can only be more important to let go of the work you are focusing on and waste your precious time on a monthly journey.
Needless to say, the smooth running of this matter must be ensured. Unfortunately, at Yvonne's level of enriching the thesaurus, it is indeed difficult to understand their world, and there is no way to judge.
This made her feel frustrated again, and her efforts were of no use in the short term, unlike the practical power that could intuitively swing the weapon and have an immediate effect.
It seems that the best thing to do now is to let this person who claims to be able to help take over, and there is only one chance. But there was always an inexplicable sense of familiarity that reminded her that there might be something wrong within.
This is a clearly inducing multiple-choice question, which is often encountered when my father first fell ill. Claiming that the condition is serious and needs to be treated as soon as possible, but the person who can be treated or the medicine has expired, it is easy to agree to the proposed conditions in anxiety.
However, they did not succeed a few times, because those who demanded money could not get anything out of their embarrassing lives, and those who followed the clues in the mouths of the speechless were doomed to be in vain. And she was soon forced to become familiar with this routine.
So is there the same thing here?
Not very sure. Because the fabric of the person in front of him was delicate, and the precious metal badge on his chest was similar to the one that Kraft brought back, the gift he shot was beautifully wrapped and looked very status.
In the entanglement, her silence may be regarded as incomprehensible, and Brimmer also felt that for a child, the previous statement was a little incomprehensible.
"Miss, you must have seen a musical and dance show, right? Those performances in the theater. We have to know which scene we are playing in order to arrange the stage. Xiaomutai can't play "Holy Marriage". In order to eliminate the barrier, he specially selected the classic emotional drama that he knew that little girls of his age usually watched as an example, hoping to open up the topic.
Yvonne blinked. Of course she hadn't seen it, but she understood that the man was claiming to be helping Kraft with something he couldn't delay, and therefore wanted to borrow something that wasn't usually a good place to borrow.
"Sorry...... I can't decide. She tilted her face to the usual unwavering expression.
Refusal, but not really refusal, she observed the reaction of the black-robed man, if the other party showed no nostalgia and turned away, it means that the possibility of deception will be less.
She'll regret it before Bremer disappears from sight, and no one will bother with her anyway, will she?
"Okay." Brimmer straightened her back and condescendingly shoved the gift into the girl's hand, "That would only hold off Professor Kraft's report, I wish he would come back sooner." ”
He should have shown regret, and in Yvonne's eyes, this kind of words and actions were more of a soft threat, and it became more and more obvious because of the lack of progress.
I've seen enough in the past, and this is not the obscure kind. And in the face of younger people, they will be more inclined to stronger expressions, especially to little girls, so that intentions will not be well hidden.
He turned away, one step, two steps, and Yvonne speculated that he might be wondering why the girl hadn't gone back on with trepidation and accepted the advice.
Life is indeed the best teacher, if you throw people into the ocean of life, as long as you don't drown, whether you want to or not, you will learn something with unimaginable efficiency, and children are quite good at and love to imitate.
"Mr. Brimer." When Brimurdo walked some distance and unconsciously slowed down, she called out to him.
He seemed to be relieved that a little trick had finally worked.
"Don't worry too much, Mr. Kraft said that if they don't have what they want there, they can return in a week or so." Yvonne poked his head out of the half-open door and pressed his fingers to calculate, "That is, tomorrow or the day after tomorrow?" ”
"Huh?"
As she wished, she observed Brimer's unnatural mood changes, from a pretended calm turn, to a moment of stunned speech, and then to a return to that patient communication appearance. As expected.
"That's ...... That's great. He said this, pressing his hand to his chest as if he were slapping again. I couldn't hear anything "good" in the tone.
Brimmer squeezed out a self-righteous smile and quickly adjusted, "I'll wait here for two more days, but it's best to let us know what Professor Kraft needs as soon as possible, time waits for no one." ”
"I understand." Yvonne nodded, but didn't bother to open the door, and watched him walk out of sight and disappear around the corner downstairs.
The so-called "professor" doesn't seem to want Kraft back, and is eager to get the manuscript before then, and is very insistent. Yvonne didn't understand or care why, she just needed to know that she had successfully confirmed that this was a routine that was no different from what she had done before.
Now that it's confirmed, just refuse.
This almost makes people feel a little bored in addition to disgust and rejection, and using the people and things that are important to them, and then creating an unexpected sense of urgency, can cause the other party to panic and make mistakes, so as to achieve the goal. It seems that there is no difference here either.
Thinking so, she left the delicately wrapped box on the table untouched, and read the pamphlet for a while, but she could not calm down after being disturbed, so she decided to go to the workshop to check on the progress of what Kraft had asked for, while there were fewer troublesome full-body armor patrolmen at noon.
It's also a serious matter, and by the way, you can listen to new small talk content.
After finding a valid reason, with the potential idea of rewarding himself, he locked the door and went out, following the route he had memorized to the workshop.
The jeweller is still closed, and it is said that he has barely made a prototype of a hollow tube wrapped in a thin sheet of silver, but it is still far from the needs of the workmanship, and the other work does not require the craftsmen and apprentices to do the work in their hands, while continuing to talk endlessly.
There were also knights and servants who couldn't stand the midday sun and hid under the eaves and joined them in the conversation.
The dishes for lunch、Who tasted the strange taste; subcutaneous fat distribution of young new cooks; The nobleman with a rich private life had no heirs because he had suffered an assassinate wound in his early years of fighting that was inconvenient for him to export; about the possible identity of a knight's private meeting that everyone is curious about; There are also rumors of hauntings everywhere that are indispensable to the classics.
Upon discovering Yvonne's presence, the knights deliberately began to control the topic, pretending not to talk about something that was not appropriate for the young lady to talk about.
Then, they realized that if they didn't cover the waist at all, there was really only a limit to what would interest everyone.
The atmosphere cooled down for a while, and finally someone came up with a brilliant idea, a ghost story.
It's the same principle as watching a horror movie, and it's a great way to seduce curiosity and show your bravery and gain favor.
Cemetery ghosts, headless dead people, wandering in the corridors. In their mouths, the castle and the surrounding hills were hell on earth at night, with more ghosts than people, trying to scare Yvonne.
But when they finished their emotional remarks and looked at the girl, the latter was mesmerized, and urged with his eyes to come another.
Age-old rumours have all but been looted, and those who are used to night patrols have had to dig for horror stories from their daily experiences, such as hearing noises when passing through an uninhabited storage area.
The bizarre thing is that among the people who just competed to perform and tear each other down, there were actually people who echoed this low-quality story that was neither wonderful nor scary.
It was a knight leaning against the corner, and when he heard someone mention it, he confirmed its authenticity, saying that the incident had been heard as an auditory hallucination when passing by during the night patrol, and that it came from the same section of the road.
As a fortress, many areas of Westminburg are vacant when they are not in a state of war call-up, and it is not uncommon for small animals to live in. Immediately, some people laughed at them, they were scared by the rats, and they didn't even go in to see with their own eyes.
The person who could get circumstantial evidence insisted that it could not be caused by rats, and after several rounds of unsuccessful arguments, he finally reluctantly announced that he had indeed not searched for the source.
"Weird, isn't it? Speaking of which, this young lady, won't you be afraid? ”
"No, not at all, can you borrow a lamp as usual, it seems to be getting dark, I have to go back quickly."
"Of course, beautiful young lady, willing to serve."
