"I'm sorry, I'm going to the bathroom."

When everyone finished the dessert after the meal and the chat was coming to an end, Klein, who was next to Angel, stood up with the hem of his dress, said hello to the waiter on the side, pushed open the door and left the box.

The direction he left was the front desk of the restaurant, was it an excuse to go to the bathroom, but actually went to pay the bill......

Watching Crane leave quickly, Angel guessed.

Retracting her gaze, she picked up the spoon and scooped up the last bit of creamy mushroom soup in front of her and put it into her mouth.

The warmth of the hot soup went down from the pharynx to the stomach, relieving the cramping pain in the lower abdomen a little.

Counting the decades of her life in her previous life, even if she added Cole Granger's memories of more than 20 years, she never thought that she would one day have a period, and even menstrual cramps!

Fortunately, Cole has a little experience in taking care of his sister Lily Granger in his memory, and he was in the Internet age in his last life, and he was also exposed to relevant knowledge, and even guessed and hurried, and finally spent these two days safely.

But for ice cream, a delicious food, she can only tearfully refuse at present.

It's not that she has any taboos, but it's a summary of her experience these days.

Looking at the strawberry jam ice cream in front of Melissa across the table, Angel could only swallow the mushroom-flavored saliva in her mouth and force herself to look away.

As if sensing the resentful look in her eyes, Melissa also looked up, then smiled slyly and pulled at Benson beside her.

"We'll too, well, go to the bathroom, Miss Granger, Mr. Eggers, you can rest for a while, have some after-dinner tea, and my brother will be back soon."

With that, she pulled Benson out of the box with a puzzled expression.

The waiter in the box had also been called away by Klein before, so that now only Angel and Azik were left, the latter also felt the emptiness of the room, and his gaze, which was originally focused on the red wine in front of him, looked around, and finally fell on Angel.

Angel had only heard Klein mention the history faculty member of Hoy University once before today, and she remembered it because she was described as having a bronze complexion that was common only in the Southern Continent, and the name seemed familiar.

When the other party raised his head and looked at each other, she noticed that there was a black mole under Azik's right ear that could only be found on closer inspection.

Just as she was thinking about what topic to choose to break the embarrassment in the room, Azik hesitated and spoke first.

"Miss Granger, you should be like Crane, too...... Well, something extraordinary? ”

Like Klein, supernatural abilities?

Angel felt a chill down her spine.

He saw that I was extraordinary, could he be too......

The university lecturer, who had a bronzed complexion and soft facial features, didn't seem to see Angel's surprise, and didn't wait for the other party's answer, but continued to his own thoughts:

"When Klein met me at Hoy last week, I could tell that he and I, like you, were 'not normal' anymore."

"There shouldn't be many people like this, but it's not rare, when I heard him introduce you to work with him just now, I guessed that you should all belong to an official organization, maybe a certain department of the police, just like the few police officers I met before......"

Listening to the other party's calm explanation, Angel's hanging heart relaxed.

She carefully pondered the words and took over in a way that did not reveal additional information.

"That's right, Klein and I both chose to join this industry because we were exposed to some otherworldly events."

"He told me that that incident led to the death of two of my students......," Azik sighed, a hint of sadness in his brown eyes, "but luckily, you're already in this circle, so you shouldn't worry too much if you take it one step at a time." ”

"I'm different, I'm used to teaching young students, having long and fulfilling winter and summer vacations, and making friends who share common topics."

"I don't have the courage anymore, and I don't want to touch the unknown and go deep into danger."

There was an age-appropriate vicissitudes in his tone.

But then, Azik changed his tune.

"Sorry, there seems to be too much lyricism, and my students always complain that I like to talk about things outside of class when I teach."

His brown eyes fixed on Angel, causing the latter to sit up straight and his face became serious.

"I see in you the incongruity of fate."

The ...... of Destiny Incongruous?

Listening to the funny words that seemed to be street gods soliciting customers, Angel couldn't laugh at all.

The other party can see at a glance that he is extraordinary, either his own sequence is not low, or he has some special ability to perceive extraordinary powers.

Whatever kind of Mr. Azik he is, he can't take his words as a joke.

"What kind of incongruity is it, and how can I deal with it?"

She leaned forward slightly and asked reverently.

"I can only see some of the irrationalities, but what kind of ...... Have you come across something that seems to be a 'coincidence' recently? Or is it something that seems to be interfering or guiding? ”

A recent coincidence, or a feeling of being guided?

For example, in the port of Enmat, he happened to bump into the traitor Tomats of the "Heart of Machines" and was about to kill the craftsman Kaveh?

For example, while tracking down Antigonus's notes, you encounter a wanted "assassin" again?

Or maybe Mrs. Sharon happened to take the initiative and attack Zotland Street when the night watchmen went to capture her?

Thinking about it like this, Angel suddenly found that there were really a lot of similar things happening in him, and there was a sense of "coincidence".

She nodded.

"That's right, if it's only once or twice, it's still normal, but if the coincidences occur too often, you have to think about whether there are other factors that guide you."

"The same is true of Klein, in fact, the first thing I noticed was the sense of incongruity in his fate, I reminded him then, and I remind you now, that the 'coincidence' you have experienced may have come from the same force."

"I can't see the deeper reason, but I believe that your fate is connected, and I hope you can find out the truth of the matter together, so that I don't lose another promising student or make him heartbroken."

After saying his words in one breath, Azik picked up the wine glass again, drank the remaining half of the red wine, and let out a sip of wine.

Looking at this university lecturer, who sometimes exudes a sense of history and sometimes shows a childlike liveliness, Angel can't help but smile.

"Thank you for your teachings, Professor Eggers."

Azk was stunned, put down his glass, and shook his head.

"No, I'm just a lecturer, Klein's real mentor, Quentin Cohen is a professor, huh...... For the time being, he is a senior associate professor, and he may have to wait a few years before he becomes a full-time professor, after all, he has to be ranked by seniority now. ”

He winked his eyes and corrected half-jokingly.

Quentin Cohen...... ...... Azik Eggers

The two names crossed her mind, and Angel suddenly remembered where she had seen their names.

Cole Granger failed to be promoted, and on the night he "crossed", Mrs. Sharon handed her a badge that was said to receive a 200-pound bounty, with their names engraved on it.

The badge that quickly aged after bringing itself into the "Tarot Society" and disappeared like the wind!

Could this be what Azik said, "coincidence"?
