Chapter 3: New Members

Early in the morning, Hobert left the room and went to the dining room on the first floor, where his sister and brother were already having breakfast.

Adoptive father, Kristen Jeffrey, was a brigadier general, but he didn't seem to be very used.

But even if he is no longer in high demand, the brigadier general is a high-ranking general, a high-ranking figure in Beckland, with a spacious two-story villa and a small garden in Queens.

In addition, the adopted son Hobert, the daughter Donna, who is one year younger than Hobert, and the son Tyron, who is three years younger than Hobert, can all attend Beckland's first-class public elementary and secondary schools, and can easily be admitted to Beckland University, which is known as the "No. 1 University in Rune".

It's just that it's still far from the residence and treatment of those nobles.

The reason why Hobert judged that his adoptive father, Christine, was not valued because his adoptive parents' family was not very wealthy, and he remembered that Emilius, who was also a general, seemed to be very rich.

And Hobert's private money saved recently is only 15 pounds, which is probably not more than a fraction of Miss "Justice's" pocket money.

However, compared to Mr. Ke, Hobert's start was much better, and he remembered that Mr. Ke's start-up capital seemed to be only about 1 pound, which also included the food expenses of the three of their brothers and sisters.

Donna, with some naturally curly blond hair, guarded the milk and sweet bread rolls in front of her and said, "Hobert, you don't seem to be in good spirits. ”

Hobert sat down at the table and said casually, "I had insomnia last night. ”

The maid served Hobert breakfast, with salad and omelette, which was very hearty.

Hobert glanced at the black tea and said, "Let's get me a glass of milk." ”

After crossing over for so long, he was still a little unaccustomed to drinking tea and coffee in the morning.

But he quickly got used to being served for breakfast.

Just as the three of them were about to finish breakfast, Hobert's adoptive mother, Lisa Mon, appeared on the second floor: "Hobert, go home early in the afternoon, your father came back today, and he said that he had something important to talk to you about." ”

Hobart got up and said, "Yes, Mother. ”

Donna said happily, "Daddy is coming back today?" I don't know what gift I was brought. ”

"Oh, dear, how can you still hope for your father's gift?" Meng Lisa cupped her forehead: "Believe me, I have been married to your father for so many years, and I have not received a satisfactory gift. ”

Donna laughed, "That's because Dad doesn't have a good valet." ”

During the chat, the three siblings finished breakfast, then went back to change their clothes, brought their school supplies, and took the family carriage to their respective schools.

Hobert, who studied law at the University of Beckland, secretly skipped class in the afternoon and found a remote equipment room to prepare for the next tarot meeting.

As soon as three o'clock came, Hobart seemed to suddenly enter an impenetrable gray-white mist, and then he sketched before his eyes the magnificent hall and the long bronze table.

Miss "Justice" Audrey saluted: "Good afternoon, Mr. Fool." It's a pity that there is no good wine here...... Otherwise, you'll have a toast to your attempt to succeed. ”

She and the "Hanged Man" had just tried to pray to Mr. Fool with the three-stage honorific name of "Fool" just the previous week, and they both received a response from the Fool.

This made them refresh their understanding of the Fool's strength, but what they didn't know was that a new member repeatedly used a three-stage honorific name to disturb the Fool's good sleep.

The pause in the middle of "Justice" is due to the discovery of a new member, so she begins to observe habitually as she speaks.

The new member is a male, not very old, looks very energetic, and should be a young man who likes sports very much. He seemed calm, without the nervousness and surprise of his first arrival at the Tarot Society. His clothes are a little blurry, but you can probably tell that the materials are elegant, the style is fashionable, and there is a clear style of the Kingdom of Rune.

"Justice" concludes: he should have been born in Rune's high society, probably living in Beckland, and although he was young, he seemed calm and calm.

"Justice" lived in a whole level of privilege than Hobert, and she and her two older brothers invited teachers to teach at home, and did not need to go to grammar school or university at all.

The illegitimate son of Earl Hall, or the child of a member of the family who did not inherit the title, would enjoy the same level of education as Hobart.

Because of this, she couldn't immediately guess that Hobert was a college student.

On the other side of the long table, Alger, the "hanged man", also praised Mr. Fool: "You are far more powerful than we imagined. ”

He also saw the new member, which made him frown, although Mr. Fool is very powerful, but before joining the new member, he should be notified to "Justice".

If he hadn't just seen the power of the "fool", he would definitely have protested.

The "fool" said: "Very well, this shows that we are on a fruitful path, and if you have something to do in the future, and you can't get out of it on Monday afternoon, then hold a ceremony in advance and let me know." ”

He added, "As you can see, there will be new members in the Tarot. ”

Then the "Fool" began to introduce: "This is Miss Justice, this is Mr. Hanged Man, and the new member is Mr. Emperor." ”

"Good afternoon, Mr. Emperor." "Justice" greeted with a smile.

This Mr. Emperor is likely to be a member of Rune's high society, which makes "Justice" somewhat intimate with him.

"Good afternoon," said Hobert, "it's an honor to be here with you." ”

The "Hanged Man" did not say hello, but only observed Hobart for a moment.

The party officially began, and "Justice" first gave "Fool" a page of Russell the Great's diary, and she kindly reminded Hobert: "The notes written by Russell the Great in special symbols turned out to be his diary, and Mr. Fool is very interested in these diaries, you can collect those diaries and trade with Mr. Fool." ”

Hobert said politely, "Thanks for the reminder." ”

He said in his heart: I still know this, Chinese Simplified! But then again, "justice" is really warm-hearted.

As soon as he thought of this, he found that there was something wrong with the atmosphere in the main hall, and the "Justice" and "Hanged Man" and even the "Fool" were staring at him tightly, as if they were treating him as a monster.

Worst!

Hobert thought in hindsight that I didn't show enough surprise when I heard Russell the Great's diary, even a little bit of surprise.

What now? Do you want to explain it quickly, or do you pretend that "the backstage is hard"?

He soon realizes that whether he explains or not, the final result seems to be the same: his identity will be mysterious.

Then don't explain it, let them make up for it themselves.
