Chapter 154: Preparing for Departure (Asking for a Monthly Pass)

After thinking about it for a while, Klein, who already had a corresponding plan, successfully sorted out his thoughts and determined the next few things to do.

He shook the letter in his right hand, and in the rising red flames, he looked up at Renette Tinicol opposite, ready to pull out a gold rune coin from his coat pocket to pay for the postage.

However, Miss Courier was long gone, and there was no "man" on his side.

"No more money?" Klein was stunned for a moment, and then had various associations, wondering if Renette Tinicole, who habitually took gold coins from non-contractors, took the initiative to ask for postage.

Maybe Miss Courier didn't say anything, just four heads and eight eyes looked at Leonard at the same time, waiting for him to pay the gold coins, but this guy couldn't understand it at all, and wanted to forcibly end the summons, and was pinched off his neck...... Crane hissed, and took advantage of the situation to do a divination with the gold coin he had just taken out, and the result was that Leonard Mitchell was alive and well.

He breathed a sigh of relief, put away the gold coins, and shouted out the door:

"Richardson. ”

The door of the semi-open room opened back without making a sound, and his valet Richardson walked in briskly, and asked in a respectful voice:

"Sir, is there anything I can do for you?"

"Mr. Butler, please. Klein sighed in his heart while commanding, he was really corrupted by the extravagant life, even if he was looking for someone at home, he would not move half a step, and he had to do it through a personal valet.

Well, that's what it takes to play...... He said to himself silently.

After a few minutes, Walter, dressed in white gloves, went up to the third floor, bowed his arms and stood in front of Dawn Dantès's side in a standard position, waiting for his employer to speak.

Klein had already considered his words, and said unhurriedly:

"Go to Councillor Makht's house and tell him that I have prepared the money for the first time.

"Also, prepare the carriage, I will go to the 'Charity Scholarship Fund' in the morning and return at noon.

"If Councillor Macht doesn't spare me time for the afternoon, then you can go back to Dr. Alan Krees' house and say I'll have a visit in the afternoon. ”

Klein had already withdrawn £10,000 in cash from the grey fog and put it in a small suitcase, just waiting for the right time to complete the preliminary work of the arms deal.

In order to dissipate the smell of gray fog on the banknotes, he deliberately "teleported" to the sea, and foraged for the "wriggling hunger" by the way—he was afraid that Amun, who knew the existence of the gray fog, would be able to "smell" that particular smell in the same city, or sense the location of the longed-for treasure.

"Yes, sir. Walter, the butler, did not ask his employer where he had raised the money upfront, and he had the impression that Dawn Dantès had hardly been to the bank during this time.

Of course, this is not a big concern, and many wealthy people who come to Beckland from other places, especially from Desy Bay and Mahai County, always have a large amount of cash in advance and pack it in a box.

............

22 Pesfield Street, Headquarters of the "Rune Charitable Scholarship Fund".

Klein passed through the door, entered, and went up to the second floor to find the reception room for the board members.

- As an honorary director who only occasionally participates in certain matters, he does not have an office here, but he has access to the reception room.

He clenched his right hand into a fist, pressed it to his mouth, coughed lightly twice, and then walked into the reception room and found a sofa to sit down.

After a short wait, he stood up again and said to Richardson, the valet standing beside him:

"I'll go to the bathroom. ”

Buttoning up his clothes, Klein stepped out of the reception room, just in time to see Audrey the "Justice" coming out of his office.

The skirt worn by this aristocratic lady today is relatively simple, with a white background and dark green embellishments, and the cuffs and collar are mainly ruffles, and only the chest has layers of lace interlaced into bow-tie flowers.

She didn't even wear jewelry, she wore a belt that couldn't be seen as good or bad, only her left arm, and her clothes were slightly bulging when the wind blew against her skin.

"Good morning, Miss Audrey. Klein made a look of surprise at the chance encounter.

Audrey glanced at Dawn Dantès, who had gray sideburns and a good appearance, and responded with a light smile:

"Good morning, Mr. Dantès. ”

She wanted to say "long time no see" briskly, to make fun of the fact that the other party hadn't come to the charity fund for a few days since the establishment ceremony, but considering that the apparent relationship between the two could only be regarded as acquaintances, she forcibly held back the corresponding words.

Klein rubbed the corners of his forehead, shook his head with a wry smile, and said:

"I'm sorry I didn't come here until today.

"I've been too busy lately, and it's foreseeable that I'll be even busier next, and I may have to go to the Southern Continent to deal with certain things. ”

The reason why he made a special trip to inform Miss "Justice" about his departure from Beckland for a while was to show his sincerity, hoping that the aristocratic girl could help keep an eye on the foundation and make it work properly - for Klein, he sincerely hoped that this "charity scholarship fund" would help more poor people in need.

"To the Southern Continent?" Audrey asked with a slight sense of dismay, retorting with a slight sense of dismay.

Klein smiled and said:

"For business. ”

At this moment, the first thought that came to Audrey's mind turned out to be: Which Sequence 5 is going to lose his life?

Sensing that Miss "Justice" seemed to be making bad associations, Klein added:

"There is cooperation with the military, selling some necessities. ”

What is the significance of this? The identity of Dawn Dantès is used to spy on military intelligence? Audrey suddenly raised her right hand, tapped it four times clockwise, and said with a clear smile:

"May the Goddess bless you with all the best. ”

After habitually saying this, she tasted the incongruity, and she was actually saying to a person who was a "fool" gentleman, may the goddess bless him!

This is probably closer to a curse...... Could Mr. Gelman Sparrow be angry? No, he is a gentle man at heart, and I didn't mean anything about it...... This time I went to the Southern Continent and came back, and the one who played Dawn Dantès should be another person, right? Could it be a demigod? Audrey's thoughts unconsciously diverged.

Crane smiled helplessly, and equally skillfully drew the crimson moon on his chest:

"May the Goddess bless us. ”

Instead of divine punishment...... He silently added in his heart.

Then, as if it were really just a chance encounter on the road, he said:

"Have you been to school during this time?"

"Yes. At the mention of this, Audrey's face seemed to glow, and she was proud and happy that she had finally done something practical.

After nodding her head a little forcefully but slightly, a look of pity gradually appeared in her green eyes:

"I went to a few public primary schools, and many of the children in them were really pitiful, and in order to save money, they brought their own black bread for lunch with a glass of water. ”

At this point, she looked up at Daun Dantès, and said with a little embarrassment:

"I know they're not going to take me to night school and Sunday school for a while, and they're not going to let me see anything worse.

"But I can imagine, I can imagine, like those workers who only live for a few years in the factory......"

This is what Gelman Sparrow once told her about the "world", which made her know the real situation at the bottom of Beckland for the first time, but what she has not seen with her own eyes can still only rely on imagination.

Crane sighed silently and said:

"Probably worse than you think.

"Don't worry, when you show what you're capable of, what they can believe in, you can really be one of them. ”

"Hmm. Audrey nodded, as if she was already thinking about how to behave better.

Klein didn't talk much more, after all, this was only the third time the two had met, and they had only spoken a few words before, but now they talked too much at once, and it was easy to be suspicious.

He pointed in the direction of the bathroom, said sorry, stepped along, and walked over.

Audrey looked at the back of Dawn Dantès, was silent for a few seconds, and whispered:

"What would it be like to be worse......"

............

After receiving a reply from Congressman Macht inviting him to the "East Byron Veterans Club" in the evening, Klein went to visit Dr. Alan Krees at 4 p.m., as planned.

"Mr. Dantès, your butler didn't tell me anything about you. With his wife only a month away from giving birth, Dr. Allen has recently given off a lot of work and is always staying at home.

He was quite puzzled by the sudden visit of Dawn Dantès, who was not too familiar, and he was not too sociable, so after greeting him, he directly asked questions.

Klein smiled and said:

"That's right, I may have to go to the Southern Continent next, you know, the weather is hot and humid, there are all kinds of bugs and diseases, I want to prepare some medicine in advance to prevent accidents, I don't know if you have any suggestions? I'm a little ashamed, you are the only good doctor I know. ”

Dr. Allen accepted his explanation, began to think seriously and gave the name of the drug.

In the end, Klein, who had a lot of sticky notes, found a reason for his stomach ache and went into the bathroom on the first floor.

The toiletry mirror there darkened, as if it had been completely shrouded in thick shadows, and in the shadows, a black stroller slowly approached, and a vague child wrapped in silver silk lay inside.

"What's the matter this time?" asked Will Ansettin in a clear voice.

Klein coughed dryly twice, and said with a smile:

"You should have heard it, I'm going to the Southern Continent.

"I don't want to miss your birth, so I'd like to ask you what day you're going to use for your birthday?"

Will Onsetin snorted his thumb and said:

"I don't know. ”

"Can't even angels control when they're born?" asked Crane, slightly stunned.

Will Ansettin replied hesitantly:

"You don't understand...... I've already looked at three birthdays, and they all have unique meanings in terms of fate, but I'm not sure yet, and I'm still vaguely looking at them, maybe when that time comes, I will understand what to do at once. ”

This is a difficult choice, and there is also a strong temperament of a god...... Klein clasped his hands, rubbed them together imperceptibly, and said:

"Then how am I going to find out in time to get back in time to complete the deal with you? ”

PS: Ask for a monthly pass on the last day of June~
