Chapter 51: Encounter

"Who, then, is the Lord?" The little girl spoke a little timidly, and her voice trembled: "I have never heard from my brothers and sisters what you said about the Lord, are we abandoned?" ”

"Nope." Mr. A said solemnly, "The Lord will never abandon you, you are only trapped by evil gods and demons. The Lord called me to come, and he sent up the sword of the land. ”

"We believe in an all-knowing and all-powerful God, the Creator of all."

……

"Look, this guy is in a hurry. Hehe, I got started before I even entered the alley. A young man let out a sinister smile, only thinking that the little girl whose name they didn't remember was touched by this man before she exclaimed: "Boss, it seems that this time she has never been to the Southern Continent, you have to use it well!" ”

"You're right." A scar-faced man smiled gloomily: "Look at his appearance, if you dare to come here, you will only be a sheep to be slaughtered, and you will be neat later, don't leave a handle." ”

"Got it!" The young man next to him was eager to try.

They watched as Mr. A and the little girl walked into the alley, surrounded by them like human hunting animals. They blocked the exit of the alley, ready to kill the two inside. After all, the little girl they threw out was also a target for their "hunt".

What these guys don't know, however, is that when they begin to prepare to close the encirclement on their prey, they have quietly closed their mouths and smiled at them as the "prey" that is already lying on the chopping board.

If there is a question of how to fight the wicked, then having another wicked person deal with it is obviously the most effective way, provided of course, that these two wicked people do not join forces against you. And these sneaky and criminal fledglings are like a small drop compared to Mr. A, a famous national-level wanted criminal in the past.

What they want, what their purpose is, and what they are ready to do. These things can be seen through by the experienced Mr. A at a glance. Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the young man who was slowly approaching, and gently grasped the little girl's hand holding the knife with his somewhat rough hand.

"You hesitated." Mr. A said suspiciously: "Little lamb, why don't you stab the knife in your hand into my body?" ”

……

"Okay, students, that's all for today. So let's get out of class now. With a ceremonial smile on his face, Klein Moretti nodded lightly to end the day. He is still in his apprenticeship and is paid 2 gold pounds and 10 soles a week.

By the end of the month, he would be able to become a full professor, and by that time, Klein's weekly salary would have doubled, or even more.

Moreover, the professors' main source of income is not their salary.

A history professor in a university is a profession that can quickly make connections, and the sons and ladies of the aristocracy do not go to the university to study, and it would be unseemly to mingle with the commoners. More often than not, they invite lecturers and professors from universities to teach their children one-on-one in their estates and castles.

The most important thing is that this job is really easy compared to the previous work of night watchers. Klein only had two classes today, and the rest of the time he stayed in his office with plenty of time to read a variety of books.

"Professor Moriarty, are you going back?"

As Klein walked out of the classroom and was about to go back to the office to pack his things home, he suddenly heard a gentle voice.

Klein looked back and saw that it was a middle-aged man in a formal suit. This man is a mechanical technology lecturer here, and his rank is lower than that of a full professor after he became a regular professor. His surname is Mitchell, and although he is only a lecturer, the faculty here generally refer to each other as a sign of respect.

Klein nodded slightly:

"Yes, Professor Mitchell, I'm done with today's class, and I'm going to get some exercise. You know, the body is the capital of the revolution. ”

"yes, I know." Professor Mitchell said naturally: "This is a famous quote from Russell the Great - I admire Russell the Great, he is not only talented, but also very modest. He has made so many great inventions, and he also said that he is just 'standing on the shoulders of giants', tsk, what a humble genius! ”

Klein: "......"

"Ah, yes." Seeing Klein's somewhat helpless expression, the male professor touched his head and smiled awkwardly: "You still have something, then you go slowly." It is estimated that I will be the only one to come to the transfer procedures for new students today. ”

"Freshmen?" Klein was a little puzzled, "Isn't it supposed to be school already early?" Why are there still new students enrolled? ”

"You don't know that, do you?" Professor Mitchell smiled slightly: "I heard that a girl was directly introduced by the school board and arranged for her as a transfer student. Even Beckland University will have such a situation. That's not to mention us here. ”

"That's right......" Crane suddenly became interested and said to Professor Mitchell, "Professor Mitchell, can I help you?" After all, I just came here and want to learn more about our school's admissions process. ”

"Professor Moriarty." Professor Mitchell suddenly shook Klein's hands with emotion: "I knew you were a helpful, friendly, and honest young man. Since you said so, then I will give you this task with pain...... I'll take you over now and tell you about the process of transferring new students. ”

Klein was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly, and suddenly had a feeling of being tricked.

He probably knew why Professor Mitchell was reluctant to handle the transfer of new studentsβ€”most of the students who were directly assigned by the school board were either rich or noble, if not the children of minor nobles or the sons of merchants. And this freshman transfer process will take more than an hour to complete.

For most professors, this is a thankless task. But since he has taken over the job, Klein will naturally complete this transfer well.

He sighed and reached out to push open the door to the reception hall in front of him. Klein pushed open the door and said to the girl sitting inside, "Hello, I'm the professor in charge of your freshman transfer. Pls ...... now"

Crane stopped suddenly, and a suffocating feeling gradually came over him. He looked at the quiet girl sitting on the sofa in a daze, and the words that had been typed and ready to be spoken stopped for a while.

- This freshman is Melissa Moretti.

Melissa heard the voice coming from the doorway abruptly stopped, and looked up a little confused. But in the next moment, Melissa's hand shook and she couldn't help but cover her mouth. There was a crisp cracking sound, and the cup she was holding fell to the ground, and the hot tea in it splashed everywhere.

That face Melissa was very familiar with, and for the past ten years, Melissa has seen this face every day. Even with a beard, a change of hairstyle, and even a monocle, Melissa could still recognize him.

"Can we start now...... Klein said a little dryly, "My name is Sherlock Moriarty." ”

Melissa took a deep breath, looked at Klein in front of her, and tried her best to calm herself. But even so, the words that came out of her mouth couldn't help but carry some crying:

"Please help me with the transfer process, Professor Moriarty. I've been waiting here for a long time. ”

She and Benson had been waiting for a long time.

Ever since they came to Beckland, they had been afraid that it was just a dream, that Klein's friends had created a dream full of hope for them. They were afraid, afraid that Crane was actually sleeping underground.

But when Melissa saw Klein's disguised face, all her fears vanished. What appeared in her heart was a sweet and reassuring feeling, as if she had returned home, whether it was the fear of coming to the metropolis or the worry of Klein, it had quietly melted here.

"Yes, Miss Melissa. Please go this way. ”

The corners of Klein's mouth curled up a little exaggeratedly, like a happy clown.

He pushed the door open and led Melissa towards his office.
