Chapter 33: An Extraordinary Gathering
So why did it turn out like this?
In the living room at 15 Minsk Street, Leonard, the new Red Glove and Nightmare, sat at the coffee table, lost in thought.
He was holding a hand of cards with a white note on his face, and on the couch across from Leonard were two people, Crane and Lynn Sotos, who had also drawn a hand.
It's just that compared to Leonard's face that was almost covered with notes, among the two people opposite, Crane and Leonard were about the same, and there were many notes on their faces, but Lynn Sotos's face was clean, and there was almost no note.
After successfully advancing to Sequence 7 and familiarizing himself with the abilities to ensure that he would not have the tragedy of rolling down the stairs again, Leonard excitedly planned to discuss with Klein about the next secret mission.
Who knew that Leonard had just arrived at Klein's new address and learned that he had become Crane's temporary assistant, with whom he was to protect Lynn Sothos until the end of Helmosio's manuscript.
It wasn't a big deal, after all, Klein had already told him that Lynn Sothos was related to the angel they were looking for, and Leonard was happy to come into contact with such a clue person.
And it was too boring for the three big men to sit together and wait for danger to appear, so Leonard, after sitting for a while, brought up whether he wanted to play cards together.
And then that's what it is now.
Lynn Sotos's luck was unreasonable, and both Leonard and Klein were stupid.
After watching the bombs and straights released one after another on the opposite side, and easily playing out the cards in his hand, Leonard finally couldn't help but ask, "Mr. Sotos, has your luck been so good?" ”
"It's okay, it's just good luck when you play cards." Lynn spread his hands, his luck when playing cards has indeed been very good, and he belongs to the kind that can be blacklisted by others.
"That's also enviable." Klein said sincerely.
Although the name has a description of "the yellow and black king who is in charge of good luck", our Mr. Fool card luck is obviously not particularly good.
"You have reminded me of a way that is said to be particularly lucky...... "Leonard muttered, because both knew the identity of the other's extraordinary beings, so in some ways he naturally had no scruples about speaking.
"I also envy the extraordinary people of the monster path, but it's a pity that I'm already a voyeur, otherwise I might really take that path." Lynn said half-jokingly.
"After all, who doesn't want to be one of the lucky ones?" Klein also nodded in agreement, although given another chance, he would also choose a soothsayer, but the lucky way is indeed enviable.
The three of them immediately glanced at each other, and while reaching a consensus, the relationship also narrowed a little.
Lynn then took out her pocket watch and looked at it, and suddenly seemed to remember something, showing a hesitant expression.
"What's wrong, what's the matter?" Crane naturally noticed the change in Lynn's expression and immediately asked.
"Well, in fact I have a gathering of extraordinary people this evening...... I wasn't going to participate, but now that you're protecting me, I'm wondering if I'll be able to buy what I want. Lynn replied, "Like the extraordinary materials or the right weapons for my promotion to Sequence 8." ”
He wasn't lying, Lynn Sothos, as a member of the Morse Ascetic Society and a famous detective in Beckland, did participate in many gatherings of the extraordinary, including the party hosted by Mr. A that Lihugh and Firth attended in the original book, and which he planned to attend tonight.
Lynn's move didn't mean anything else, just to see if she could sell some of the recipes in her hand smoothly.
It's definitely not out of some desire to let Mr. Fool know the bad taste of future Tarot members in advance!
Lynn: Seriously. JPG
A party of the extraordinary?
Klein and Leonard's eyes lit up suddenly, and they were worried about how the two of them who naturally blended into the circle of Beckland Extraordinary would let go of such an opportunity, and after glancing at each other, Klein suddenly spoke:
"If you're just going to a gathering of the extraordinary, you shouldn't have a problem. And if you can buy the right extraordinary weapons or promotion materials in the Extraordinaire Gathering, it will also be good for dealing with danger in the future. ”
"That's right, although we will definitely protect you, if something really happens, your strength will be stronger, and you will have more hope of surviving the danger." Leonard chimed in.
"Actually, that's what I thought." Lynn seemed to be moved by what the two said, and glanced at Klein and Leonard respectively, and said, "If you want to go to the party, you have to disguise it now, otherwise I'm afraid it's too late." ”
"Speaking of which, do you know how to wear makeup? If you don't, I can help you too......" Lynn showed an eager expression, at this moment he was like a rookie who was obviously very vegetable but still addicted, without the slightest intuition that he was a rookie.
Ahem, you really don't have any self-knowledge, Mr. Sototh...... Crane almost couldn't control his expression, and then he tore the note off his face with his hand and said, "No, I'll put on makeup." ”
"Oh......" Lynn suddenly looked disappointed, and looked at Leonard expectantly.
"Uh, g...... Sherlock will help me with my makeup. Leonard was stunned for a moment, and the word "Klein" almost popped out of his mouth, but fortunately he restrained it in time.
"Yes, I'll help Watson in disguise." Klein nodded, Leonard's fake identity is now James Watson.
That's right, the name came from Klein's kind recommendation.
……
"In this way, my makeup rookie character should be ingrained, right? But Leonard is really the first person to expose himself to the vest, but if I am really a detective who doesn't know anything, maybe I will be suspicious. ”
In the second period, beside the burning campfire, Lynn muttered a low word while roasting the flesh of an unknown bird creature in her hand.
He then looked up and saw that they were in a woods that seemed unremarkable, but were in fact shrouded in shadows, and Medici was struggling with a pot of soup of indescribable color, a little greenish, a little blue, and a little purple.
Judging by the color and smell alone, Lynn was 100% sure that it was a dark dish.
Sasriel sat quietly not far away, smiling at the two little ones tossing. As angels, they don't actually have too high food needs, and the reason why there is such a barbecue and a soup situation is entirely because Lynn proposed that life should have a sense of ritual.
Although Saslier felt that Lynn might just be just trying to toss Medici.
