Even after the strange events on Bansey Island last night, Esther's waking time remained unwavering.

Esther's migraines had tormented her from time to time since she had expanded the circulating space last night, but thankfully, the pain in her mind had completely subsided after the night had passed.

The servant's room that Esther had chosen was also one with a small window, and at this moment golden flecks of light poured into the cabin through the window, and she smiled and looked out, the sky was gradually clearing, and there were moving figures on the docks, and everything seemed to be back on track.

But Bansey Island hides such a sinister anomaly, and this life is probably over.

Esther gave up thinking and walked out of the door just as Klein walked into the room, still holding a black wooden box in his hand.

Esther also saw Donna and Denton, who were following Klein, and greeted the two children:

"Good morning, you two got up so early."

Donna stretched out her hand behind her back and put what she was holding on the table:

"Sister Hamel! Uncle Sparrow! This is what my father, my mother, and Uncle Cleves, well, and Uncle Dimurdo's family asked me to pass on to you, one hundred and fifty pounds! ”

"Huh, that's so much!? Is that really good? Asther was a little surprised, and casually clicked on the stack of gold pounds, and quickly put them back on the table.

Donna's smile was excited: "They said it wasn't enough to show their gratitude, just to replenish your consumption!" ”

Crane said expressionlessly, "It's okay. ”

Since Klein had no opinion, of course Esther would not push out the gold pounds sent to the door, she randomly ordered thirty gold pounds and handed the rest to Crane.

Klein gave her a questioning look, and Esther shrugged indifferently, "For me, as long as I have money for food." If someone else gives me something to eat, I just want to run along. ”

It took a lot of effort for Crane to hold back his laughter and not let the characters collapse in front of Donna and Denton.

The two children looked at each other and couldn't wait to ask Klein about the situation last night, and the barrage of questions made Crane's head dazed.

Esther was still snickering beside her, but the next second Donna turned to her: "Sister Hamel, are those you used last night also magic?" You really have fireflies in your hair! Are all the adventures you're talking about true? ”

Klein gave Esther a look, and Esther understood, but pretended not to understand: "Yes, those adventure stories are all true, and Uncle Sparrow's past of fighting evil is extremely heroic!" ”

Klein was taking off his coat's arm when he sensed some kind of mockery with a voiceover.

His luck at the Fight the Evil table never looked good!

Klein couldn't help but explain, and briefly said a few words about "extraordinary abilities", so as not to make Esther's nonsense cause the two children to have a worse misunderstanding.

Donna couldn't help but ask, "Can we, too, become like you through rituals and potions?" ”

Esther subconsciously touched her right eyebrow: "This is not a good thing, everything has a price." If you want to be extraordinary, you may be forgotten by your family, hunted down by the people of the church, and there is no one to rely on or trust, are you still willing? ”

The two children had a blank look on their faces, and Denton looked at Klein, "But didn't Sister Hamel act with Uncle Sparrow?" ”

Klein's next move was beyond Esther's expectations.

He said in a deep voice:

"As long as you choose this path, you will always be accompanied by danger and madness. You can win them a hundred, a thousand times, but lose them once and you'll be like that fallen bishop. ”

Crane rolled up the sleeves of his shirt, revealing a shriveled and shrunken old arm, and another arm with transparent skin that could see directly into all the vascular muscles.

Dense sprouts of flesh suddenly appeared on his face, writhing like worms, and frightened the two children back to the door.

"Do you see clearly? That's it, madness. ”

Esther didn't stop Klein.

This kind of deterrence is actually for the good of those two children.

After Donna and Denton stormed into the hallway in fright, she stepped forward and closed the door:

"Is that good? Actually, I could have stolen their ideas directly. ”

Crane shook his head at her: "They have the right to choose their own lives after they know the truth, and you can't take that power away." ”

"That's right. I'm always trying to make it convenient, and habitually stealing these troubles...... It seems to be getting more and more like a 'thief'. Esther pressed her temples with her knuckles and said no more.

"Acting has worked on you too?" Klein asked.

"I don't need to digest potions, but it could be reversed......" Esther frowned and stopped talking abruptly.

Daniz's door was opened, and he yawned out of the room, "What just happened?" I seem to have heard an exclamation before. ”

As a result, a bloodstained cane flew over, and Daniz hurriedly caught it, and as soon as he looked up again, he met the cold expression under Gelman's gold-rimmed glasses:

"Wash it up."

Daniz's face instantly fell again.

Shit! I should have slept until noon!

——

"I've always wondered how you and Gelman met." Daniz asked.

Walking into the first-class dining room, the two of them ordered breakfast with the waiter, and were seated in a position where the morning sun was softer. Because Daniz had been delayed by the handwashing stick, there were already a lot of people getting up at this time, and many of the guests sitting at the table for breakfast.

Esther drank two sips of apple juice from the waiter and leaned lazily against the handrail: "That's how we met, at first it was just a colleague." ”

Colleague relationships? Sure enough, these two people used to be bounty hunters, and they gradually became acquainted after joining forces on some kind of mission. Daniz thought about the strange tacit understanding between the two people, and immediately came to a conclusion in his heart.

Esther cut the waffle into small portions and dipped it in jam and put it in her mouth, knowing that Daniz had misunderstood without looking at her.

But what she said was the truth.

"Judging by the abilities of the two of you, you should have mixed well before, right? How did you think of going to sea. Daniz picked up a piece of grilled sausage, still trying to find out about the past of the two men.

"Chances, of course there are more opportunities at sea," Esther glanced at Daniz, "like you?" ”

"me! I thought Gelman was a pretty good kid that night, but who knows......"

Daniz chewed the sausage viciously, clearly spilling off his food.

Esther glared at him in surprise: "Have you ever thought about Lagelman joining the gang?" Why, it's not going to be joining your team, is it? ”

If it weren't for the fact that he was in the first-class restaurant, Daniz would have slammed it on the table: "How did I know he was such a madman!" ”

"Don't speak ill of people behind your back, you might be heard."

Esther reminded Daniz with a smile.

Daniz looked around in horror, but did not see Gelman's figure, and immediately regained his arrogant demeanor: "How is it possible? He couldn't hear us again...... You're not going to tell him, are you? ”

"No, after all, he doesn't care if you say to his face, because he is like that." Esther retouched Klein's character from the side.

"I'm not that stupid! Say it to your face? I'm afraid that if he gets excited, I'll let me eat the bullet. ”

Daniz was indeed a little apprehensive, and he remembered that Gelman was proficient in divination, but after considering Hamel's words, he felt that what she said did make sense.

Esther shook the apple juice in her glass and looked out the window at the sparkling sea, "I'm curious about your team." Your captain can make you admire like this, he should also be a powerful extraordinary? ”

As soon as Daniz mentioned the topic of "Lieutenant General of the Iceberg", he seemed very energetic: "Of course! Our captain is super awesome and very smart! Otherwise, we wouldn't have followed her! ”

"Then you can introduce me to it."

"That's fine, you-you're not going to be lying to me again, are you?"

Esther didn't speak, just kept a big smile.

Just let Daniz go with his thoughts.

Esther has plans to go to sea, and Daniz's character is quite different from the murderous pirate in Cleves's story. Esther speculated that this had something to do with the style of the pirate group itself, and that the idea of the "Lieutenant General of the Iceberg" might not be so difficult for her to accept.

But all of this has to wait for the right opportunity to witness it with your own eyes.

——

Klein slept until lunchtime, his clean cane already leaning against the edge of the coat rack.

Esther and Daniz were drawing on a notebook on the table, and when Klein walked over, he found Esther playing "Russell the Great's Gomoku" with Daniz.

On the torn scratch paper next to him, you can see at a glance that the battle of Kuroko is fierce, and in the ongoing chess game, Daniz is holding his hair with one hand and gesturing around Shiroko with the other, still undeciding where to drop Kuroko.

It's miserable. Klein sighed in his heart, playing this kind of brain-using game with the way of "decryption scholars", you don't have to think about it to know that there is no chance of winning.

Out of the corner of her eye, Esther noticed Klein coming out of the house, and immediately persuaded, "Daniz, or forget it." It's time for lunch. ”

"I don't believe it, can't I win a single game!? Damn it! Daniz cursed and shouted, "I can't see anyone so much light!" ”

Then he looked up and looked at German with an emotionless look.

There were quite a few seconds of silence that suffocated Daniz.

Klein was already about to make smiling a daily role, he glanced coldly at the two of them, and put on his double-breasted long dress: "Go to the restaurant." ”

Even on the way to the restaurant, Daniz argued with Esther:

"Almost! I'm going to win in two more moves, and it's up to you to lose! ”

Esther smiled at the corners of her mouth: "If you don't believe me, wait until we're done eating and then go back and continue?" ”

"I know it all if you don't have to continue! This must be ......."

Klein couldn't help but sigh in his heart, where did Danitz get his courage, it was really admirable.
