After leaving Ards's home, Klein returned to Narcissus Flower Street on public carriage.
crack, he took out the key to open the door, and suddenly saw a figure sitting in the restaurant.
Klein subconsciously squeezed the cane in his palm, but he immediately realized that it was not a thief, but a maid Bella.
Bella is reading the newspaper spread out on the table attentively. Hearing the sound of opening the door, he was startled, brushed up, and stuttered to explain:
"I, I have just finished my morning work, I am waiting, waiting for the water to boil and eat, and eat bread."
Sure enough I did n’t get used to it and suddenly there was a maid ... Klein laughed at himself, took off his hat and nodded slightly:
"Reading is a good habit, and it is encouraged by Goddess to keep reading after busy work."
He was afraid that the other party thought he was mocking, so he used the name Goddess of the Night.
But in fact, only God of Knowledge and Wisdom puts reading in the lofty position ... Of course, no matter which church, it advocates learning ... Well, 17-18 age, faith Goddess of the Night, indicating that it is affected by parents, and such Parents, as long as it is not completely impossible, they will definitely allow their daughters to receive education. Public elementary schools ca n’t afford it. church's free school is still no problem. At most, it will take some time ... Therefore, Bella is not illiterate, knows words, and can read newspapers ... Klein put his cane thoughtfully and walked into the living room.
For Bella, his impression is quite good.
Although the little girl seemed unsuitable and clumsy in the kitchen, she showed a willingness to study hard.
Bella dropped his hands and said slightly embarrassedly:
"I haven't read newspapers before, and the landlord didn't allow us to buy old newspapers to paste the wall ... I just picked it up and wiped the coffee table, I glanced at it accidentally, I feel, I feel very Interesting. "
Poor girl, when I came here with cross over, the newspapers were at the bottom of the interesting rankings ... Klein sullen, smiled, followed the silver watch chain, took out the pocket watch, snapped it open and glanced, casually Said:
"As long as you have completed your work and done well, you can freely arrange it at other times without tension. Of course, if I am chatting with Benson and Melissa, you better stay in your room. I allow you to use the gas lamp inside and bring some old newspapers in. "
"Well, you knock on the door of my bedroom at one o'clock in the afternoon, and then prepare a cup of Sibe black tea, two fluffy white bread, a piece of oat toast, and a small sauce of cream."
In order to celebrate his promotion to Sequence Eight, Klein decided to spend a little extravagance and eat the white bread that Benson intends to enjoy on the weekend.
Well, I will buy back another 8 pounds. The staple food will be changed from oat bread to white bread! Weekly salary of Extraordinary of Sequence Eight will definitely rise ... captain did not mention this before ... he forgot again! Klein was startled, and decided to ask clearly tomorrow.
"Okay, okay." Bella responded with surprise.
Next, she asked somewhat uncertainly:
"Mister Klein, is Sibe black tea serving guests?"
Because the family is Moretti, she is honored by her name.
"Yes, it will be the tea I usually drink in the future." Klein waved his hand and walked towards the stairwell.
After becoming Clown, he suddenly found his financial situation became very good.
This is due to the fact that there is no additional and large expenses for the time being, so the daily fixed 2shilling rented carriage cost of the red chimney house and occasional material supplements are checked, and the latter is often reimbursable.
The second reason is that the Klein's anonymous account is lying quietly with 300gold pound. You know, the fields and pastures in the country only need 5 to 6.5shilling per acre, that is, he can buy 920 to 1200. An acre of rural fields or pastures is slightly equal to 137 to 179 acres on the earth, or 23 to 30 acres. In addition, the money will allow him to buy a house in Narcissus Flower Street for 15 years in the form of leasehold.
If all is replaced by land, the rent income is about 23 to 31 pounds per year ... Not bad, but there is no need for this at present, this 300 pounds must be kept in emergency ... Huh, I have to find an opportunity to make my real life these two days. Weekly salary tells Benson and Melissa! Klein wanted to enter his bedroom while thinking.
Anti-lock the door of the house, Klein sits on the bed, and starts meditation again. In this way, he slowly controls the little power of magical medicine spill, very careful, very careful.
For him, loss of control was originally a verbal noun, until it encountered the Justice Enforcer.
However, he did not know the Justice Enforcer, nor did he know what happened to the other party before that. He only subconsciously thought that it was a special case, which was rarely repeated.
It's like seeing from the news that a homicide occurred in another city, the normal person sighs at most, and turns around and forgets.
But the events of Old Neil brought a great shock to Klein, let him clearly understand that the runaway is around and around, and the runaway may come in unexpected ways at any time!
What a **** lesson ... Klein ends meditation, opens his eyes and mutters to himself silently.
During this time, he often dreamed of the scene that day, often waking up in the middle of the night, and sweating.
He is both saddened by the death of Old Neil and worried about his future. If there is meditation to help him fall asleep, he believes that he will certainly not be able to sleep recently.
"In addition to digesting magical medicine, we must try to control our emotions and desires, so that they are within a reasonable range, and will not be corroded by them ..." Klein exhaled, lying down, and quickly fell into a deep sleep status.
On the day of Old Neil ’s death, Dunn ’s performance and words gave him a great touch, letting him take a serious look at the responsibility of Night Watcher for the first time, and wanted to pick up his own burden as soon as possible to help captain and teammates.
Therefore, he does not intend to waste his afternoon time, and the fighting practice class will continue as usual.
…………
At three in the afternoon, in the humble driving range.
Gawain frown looks at Klein's with short blond hair and mottled movement gradually changed from jerky to cooked, and from cooked to become a trainee knight who has been trained for half a year.
And all this happened in just forty minutes!
He shouted to stop practicing, looked up and down at each other, and could n’t help but ask:
"What happened?"
Klein has long thought about a set of rhetoric, ready to push his performance to scientific research, but Gawain's voice just fell, he immediately added, pondering:
"If it is not convenient to answer, you do not need to answer."
It seems that the corresponding personnel of the police department has long communicated with teacher Gawain ... also, he occasionally trains to Extraordinary, how could he not remind in advance ... Klein relaxed, he said:
"Teacher, how long do you think it will take me to participate in actual combat?"
Gawain put his hands around him and gave him a serious look, his voice replied slightly dumbly:
"Two or three days."
"But this is not enough!"
He explained as if thinking:
"Able to participate in actual combat does not mean mastering combat, the latter will probably take two or three weeks."
"In addition, you must master cold weapons that are easy to carry, such as canes, whips, daggers, and Sanleng Thorn!"
...... There are so many projects? Klein dumbfounded.
Gawain glanced at him steadily:
"You have to remember that every drop of sweat you shed here may save your life in the future."
"Yes, teacher!" Klein responded with a spirit.
…………
On Saturday morning, Klein entered Black Thorns Security Company and knocked on the door of captain's office again.
It seems that Dunn Smith has been prepared for a long time, just looked up and said to himself:
"I forgot to inform you yesterday. After you were promoted to Sequence Eight, your position in the police department naturally changed from trainee supervisor to inspector. I will let them replace your ID and uniform badge as soon as possible."
"Your weekly salary will be increased from 6 pounds to 10 pounds. church and Police Department each bear half of this, which reaches the level of senior Night Watcher. Of course, I mean the kind of Sequence Nine."
... captain, did you make a draft? Klein was stunned for a moment, immediately raised his eyebrows, and responded slightly with the corners of his mouth:
"This is more than I expected."
He thought that his weekly salary only rose to 8 pounds.
Dunn picked up the coffee and took a sip:
“Night Watcher salary growth is based on the length of service, the second is the contribution made, the third is the rank of the self, and the third point is often closely related to the contribution.”
Also, without merit, even if magical medicine is digested and the promotion standard is met, there is no way to apply for formula and materials ... Klein nods thoughtfully.
Weekly salary of 10 pounds, including bonuses, almost 540 pounds per year. Without the need to pay taxes, such income is also very good in the middle class, second only to great lawyer, famous architects, senior surgeons and the government Senior employees and other occupations that are close to celebrities.
Ruen Kingdom The Deputy Director of the Finance Department of the Ministry of Finance has an annual salary of only 700 pounds, and it is still before tax, after tax at most 640 pounds, um, less than a little ... According to the introduction, Beckland western district and Hillston District in the newspaper, a good building The asking price of the house is about 2500 pounds. If I and Benson and Melissa can maintain the current expenses, I can buy it in 7-8 ... I can buy it on my own in only 7-8 in the center of the Imperial City and Modu A house, this salary really makes people feel happy ... Klein got up and said goodbye, stepped into the ground briskly, taking turns Chanis Gate.
Not before ten, he suddenly heard someone approaching the duty room.
Soon, Dunn appeared at the door and said grayly and sullenly:
"There is a case that needs your help."
"Involving extraordinary cases?" Klein asked subconsciously.
"No, Mr. Maynard, a city councillor, was found dead at home this morning. The Thengen City police station was under a lot of pressure. I hope we can use spiritism to help them lock down the murderer as soon as possible. Well, currently only you in the team can spiritism. "Dunn explained a sentence, and then added," Sacred Hall will dispatch a Inquisitor of Secrets to join us next week. In fact, this should have been done before, but you just joined and chose Divinator. "
