"Please come in."

Opening the door, Crane stepped aside, bent down and raised his hand, inviting Angel in like a waiter at the door of a hotel.

"Thank you."

Angel was not polite, it was not the first time she had come to Klein's home.

Angel has visited the neighborhood several times since the last celebration of the Moretti family's housewarming, and basically met Klein's sister Melissa Moretti after work, and was warmly invited by her to come to Klein's house for a chat.

But unlike the previous times, this time Angel took the initiative to ask for the door.

Entering the living room, Angel walked straight to the single sofa next to the convex belly window, and sat down directly as if he were back at home.

Nos. 2, 4 and 6 Daffodil Street have almost the same internal structure, and the living room, study, kitchen, and bathroom on the first floor are all located in the same location as her own home, especially the same single sofa next to the bay belly window facing the street.

She stretched out on the couch and watched Klein head to the kitchen, busy for a moment, serving two steaming cups of coffee.

"Melissa hasn't finished school yet, I thought you were coming to her."

Putting the coffee on the table, Klein sat on the sofa opposite Angel, stretched his hands and feet, and said with a tired face.

Today, the two of them patrolled the area with the senior night watchman, and used their free time in the afternoon to search for the "red chimney" building that Klein divined in the city, and they were very tired after a day of traveling.

But Angel thought of Ms. Daly's letter last night, and still insisted on coming to Klein's house to talk about "private matters".

"I'm not looking for her this time, I'm looking for you," Angel said, staring at the steaming cup of coffee, "Ms. Daly wrote to me last night, and she mentioned the 'special request' again. ”

"Again?"

Klein keenly captured the word.

Angel then remembered that she hadn't told her about Daly's first visit.

"That's ......"

From the time Daly came to Tingen at night, communicating with her with the help of a translucent face, until last night when he handed the reply to the messenger who grabbed the letter with his tongue, Angel told Klein the full content of the exchange with Daly in the past two days.

Well, except for the anger of Dai Li when he "instigated", and the matter of asking the other party to find potion materials.

"I see, Ms. Dai Li has indeed mastered the 'acting method', no wonder she has been promoted so quickly...... But why did the Church prohibit the spread of such a safe way to digest potions? Even someone who wants to know swears not to divulge relevant information? ”

Crane muttered, lost in thought, picked up the coffee cup and took a sip, only to grin at the scalding coffee.

"The reason for this may not be known until you are promoted to the upper echelons of the church, at least in Ms. Daly's Sequence 6, which is still unknown."

Angel was also puzzled by this, but the highest number of church insiders she knew at the moment was Ms. Dalie, and since she didn't know or couldn't say it, there was no other source of information.

"That aside, she also said let's submit a special request as soon as possible, my 'soothsayer' potion has been digested, but what about you? If you need to take the potion on the spot......"

Angel knew that Crane had somehow learned that he was already the "instigator" of Sequence 8, which is why he had this question.

"Ms. Dai Li specifically mentioned that the church does not have the recipe for the 'Instigator' potion, and after the examination, you may be asked to configure the potion on the spot for promotion, and I'm afraid I can only figure it out on my own, which is a pity."

There was no regret in her expression, but a hint of a smile.

Crane on the other side also breathed a sigh of relief.

"Then that's no problem, we can go to the captain tomorrow and submit a special request."

He seemed to let go of a concern, and his face was smiling.

"After submitting the application, I also have to find an opportunity to tell the other team members about the 'coping method'. Well...... The captain is already playing and I'm sure he'll have a good time coming to fruition......"

At this, Klein frowned, as if remembering something not very pleasant.

“…… As for the others, Leonard is likely to know this method as well, or at least have a similar summary, we can tell Dalie, the way the captain plays the captain, not too directly, it will seem deliberate, so that the examiner thinks that we know in advance that we need to make an oath, and it will get Ms. Dali in trouble......"

Angel sipped her hot coffee, bathed in the sunset that spilled into the living room outside the window, and watched Klein rack her brains and plan how to "reveal" the play rationally tomorrow, and for a while, she felt that this moment of peace and tranquility would last until the end of time.

"Well, what's wrong?"

Crane was gushing about his plan when he felt Angel's gaze and looked up at the other party.

"No, it's okay, you keep ......"

Whoop -

There was the sound of a key inserting the keyhole in the doorway, followed by Melissa's self-talk:

"I'll be back."

With a schoolbag in one hand and bread and vegetables in a paper bag in the other, she opened the door with her knees and walked into the living room.

"Hey, Crane, you're so early today...... Miss Angel, you're here too! ”

Melissa found that the two were in the corner of the living room, and cried out in surprise, and then her eyes swept back and forth between Angel and Crane, and suddenly asked:

"Miss Angel, are you going to have dinner with us today?"

——————

"Braised lamb, this is my brother's specialty."

Bringing the last plate to the table, Melissa proudly introduced.

I didn't expect Klein to make such a "hard dish", Angel, who had only been stewed in one pot for two lifetimes, blushed a little, she lifted the lid of the plate, driven by her pride, and tried to pick a thorn, but she was lost in the aroma that burst out in an instant.

“…… Well, it's really fragrant......"

She had to admit.

As Klein, who had finished distributing the plates, also sat down, Angel saw that the two were ready to eat, and asked curiously:

"Don't you need to wait for Mr. Benson to come back?"

Melissa handed the bread to Klein, then creamed her own piece, and replied:

"Ban...... The company where my brother works has been working lately late, and he used to have to travel a lot to Port Prietz and even to Dieceshire. Fortunately, he has been able to push off those heavy tasks lately, because ......"

She looked at Crane, who was breaking bread, and smiled without saying a word.

Angel knew that Crane became a night watchman and obtained this high income, which was a great help to the Moretti family, who were originally supported by Mr. Benson alone.

Their eldest brother, who was so busy that his hairline receded frequently, didn't need to work overtime as often for that extra income, and Melissa ......

Within a month of knowing Melissa, Angel could clearly see that the girl's facial skin was gradually rosy, the subcutaneous fat was slowly filled, and even the long black hair was getting shinier.

It is conceivable that before this, she had not been able to get enough nutrients at this age.

No wonder Crane worked so hard to get promoted, to gain a foothold among the Nightwatch......

Looking at the "soothsayer" Crane who was smearing cream on the bread beside her, Angel had a smile on the corner of her mouth, and she hurriedly took a bite of the fluffy bread to hide her expression.

Well, maybe after a while, he won't be a "soothsayer", anyway, what is the name of the potion's sequence 8 of the soothsayer?

While thinking about it, Melissa opposite her thought of something again, her eyes lit up, and she said:

"And, Benson... My brother has been studying in his spare time recently, preparing for the kingdom's public examination next year, and if he can be admitted to the government employee, everything will be fine. ”

By the way, Miss Justice mentioned at the tarot meeting that the proposal to recruit administrative officers through public examinations early next year will enter the implementation stage, and for a diligent staff like Mr. Bensen, if it can be ......

Hey, but how did the Moretti family, such an ordinary family, know about this proposal, which has not even passed the upper and lower houses of parliament?

Angel's mind popped up with this question, and she looked up at Melissa, seeing that she was immersed in the imagination of a better life in the future, and then turned to Klein.

The latter was looking at him, but then looked away again.

Why can't I change the chapter name after uploading?
