Seeing his sister ’s puzzled eyes, Klein suddenly felt that this was an opportunity. He looked at each other a few times and said with a serious expression:
"Melissa, you don't have enough respect for today's dinner."
"What?" Melissa looked puzzled.
Klein pointed to her neck and said:
"As a lady, you still lack a necklace embellishing here."
While waiting for his sister to speak, he laughed and pulled out a silver protective talisman surrounded by angel feather from his pocket:
"Fortunately, I have prepared it for you."
"..." Melissa was stunned for a moment, then immediately blurted out and asked, "How much is it?"
Sister, the focus of your concern is not right ... Klein said silently and explained with a smile:
"Actually, it is not expensive, because it was only a semi-finished product at first. I copied the relics I saw before and carved the blessing spell and beautiful patterns."
"Did you sculpt?" Melissa was really distracted.
"How is it? How about my craft?" Klein handed over protective talisman to his sister.
Melissa looked over and over for several times, and bit her lip lightly:
"I like the angel feather around me."
I think the engraved mantras and symbols I sculpted are very ugly, so I do n’t need to hide them ... protective talisman mainly sees the effect! Klein's mouth was slightly twitched, and just waiting to persuade his sister to accept it, he saw Melissa with a "breathless" expression, put a silver necklace on his neck, and carefully positioned protective talisman.
"Perfect." Klein glanced over and praised exaggeratedly.
Melissa glanced at him, looked down at looks at protective talisman, and said sullenly:
"Klein, you weren't like this before, like this ..."
"Perhaps because of a good job and a good income, the whole person becomes confident." Klein interrupted the sister's words and explained first.
Hey, although I received the memory fragments of original self, there is no problem in large aspects, but in some details, I still habitually present a true character ... especially after getting more and more natural with Benson and Melissa ... Sighed.
Melissa seems to agree with his reasons, pursed his lips and said:
"You are so good now, really good ..."
After the brothers and sisters chatted for a while, Benson changed their clothes and went downstairs. White shirts, black vests, tuxedos, black bow ties and straight trousers gave him a whole new look. person.
The hairline is also very similar ... Klein smiled secretly.
"Excellent, Benson, you are suitable for this." He spread his hand with a broad smile.
Melissa also nodded his head seriously.
"Facts have proved that clothes are more important than me." Benson ridiculed himself.
Klein took the opportunity to take out the remaining protective talisman, repeated the previous remarks, and finally said:
"I also made one for you."
"Not bad, I will carry it with me." Benson accepts frankly and quipped, "Klein, even if you suddenly get a haircut, make clothes, repair clocks, and feed hairy baboon, I am not surprised. "
"Life is always full of surprises and surprises." Klein replied with a smile.
Next, the three brothers and sisters picked themselves up, walked out of the gate, and took the trackless public carriage to the northern district Fania Street where the Selina family is located.
Wood family is also a townhouse, but unlike Klein, it has a porch and a small lawn in front of it, which is more elegant.
After pulling the doorbell, Klein, Benson and Melissa only waited more than ten seconds to see today's protagonist Selina Wood.
The girl with long burgundy hair happily gave Melissa a hug:
"I like your skirt, it makes you look very beautiful."
Selina is next to her father, Mr. Old Wood, a senior employee of the Thengen branch of Beckland Bank.
"Welcome to you, our respectable brother, welcome to you, our young historian." He therefore greeted Benson and Klein exaggeratedly.
Young historian ... Why not add the description of "conscience" ... Klein abdomen, take off the hat, smile and respond:
"Mr. Wood, you are more spiritual and younger than I thought."
His compliment style unwittingly favored the big food empire.
Benson reached out and shook Old Wood:
"I know a lot of bank employees, but they are all as proud and stiff as the latest models of machines. None of them is as elegant as you."
"If you saw me in the bank, maybe you would not say so." Old Wood smiled very happy.
After the greeting, the Selina in the new long skirt led the three siblings inward slightly, sometimes speaking at a normal volume, "Elizabeth has arrived", and sometimes lowering his voice to Melissa, "You two brothers are more handsome than I imagined ".
Hey, my hearing is good ... although you are saying praise ... Klein two sixteen-year-old girls walking side by side in front of looks at helplessly.
That ’s not right, I still have a short distance from being handsome like this ... Hey, Miss Selina, how ugly did you think of me and Benson before? A restrained, gloomy, untrimmed, pale face, ignorant eyes, a sparse hair, premature aging? Klein squeezed his eyebrows and practiced "spirit vision" diligently.
Miss Selina, healthy body, excited, very happy ... Mr. Old Wood ’s lungs have a little problem, yes, I saw his pipe ... Klein glanced at everyone present in a good mood.
"Elizabeth, Melissa is here." At this moment, Selina greeted briskly towards the front.
A girl wearing a blue lace dress came over. She had long curly brown hair and cute baby fat.
Klein was taken aback for a moment, because he knew the girl.
In the underground trading market, he also helped each other to select protective talisman!
Elizabeth first greeted Melissa, then looked at Benson and Klein.
She was stunned, her brow furrowed slightly, as if thinking about something.
Soon, Elizabeth smiled and said hello politely.
Klein also pretended not to recognize each other. Under the guidance of old Wood, he came to the living room sofa area and was given introduction to Selina's brother Chris and other guests.
looks at Benson took Mr. Schoder next door as his topic, and had a very pleasant chat with Solicitor such as Chris. Klein couldn't help but envy.
I have no such communicative skills ... He picked up a glass of pre-dinner wine from the corner table, listened quietly, nodded from time to time, and echoed with laughter.
It did n’t take long for the guests to arrive and the dinner officially began.
Because there are too many guests invited, Wood family ’s dining table ca n’t afford it, so the dinner was opened in buffet style. The maid put steaks, grilled chicken, fried fish, mashed potatoes and other food on a plate and put them on different tables On top, the maid is responsible for cutting, making the weight suitable for access.
Klein saw those elegant enamel dinner plates and silver-made cutlery, and could n’t help but secretly feel that just the middle class Wood family is too extravagant.
"Since it's so rich, why should Chris prepare for a few more years for the wedding?" He wondered what his sister had said, "Well, maybe it's just to accumulate such utensils. Years, decentness is very important for such a family! "
Thinking, Klein picked up a porcelain plate and came to the dining table, fork a honey-coated barbecue.
At this moment, Elizabeth with a cute baby fat face came close, looked at the food, and whispered:
"It turns out that you are the brother of Melissa ... Thank you, Selina likes the protective talisman I gave, saying that I feel healthy as soon as I wear it."
Selina ... protective talisman ... Klein suddenly remembered the reason why the girl next to him chose protective talisman:
Give a friend who likes mysticism a birthday present!
That friend is Selina? Selina likes something in the mysterious realm? Klein frowned slightly and smiled politely:
"That may just be the placebo effect."
After finishing this sentence, he began to wait for the other party to praise Mister Russell Great Emperor.
But the reaction of Elizabeth is a ignorant face:
"What is a placebo?"
"It is purely psychological. Sometimes, we firmly believe that we will get better, but we will really get better." Klein roughly explained.
"No, she said it was different from the protective talisman she had bought before, and it felt different." Elizabeth emphasized.
She glanced at Klein sideways and said curiously:
"I did not expect that Melissa's brother turned out to be an mysticism expert."
"You know, I study history, and I will always be exposed to similar things." Klein passed the topic without trace, and instead asked, "Are you also at Thengen City technical school?" >
"No, I was a classmate with Selina and Melissa before, and then they went to a technical school, and I was at the nearby Ivos Public School." Elizabeth explained seriously.
Public school is not a public school, but a school for public enrollment. It evolved from a good grammar middle school. The goal is to train graduates who can enter the university. The tuition is quite expensive, and it will examine the family background of the students. Even the average middle class is unbearable.
She didn't talk much, and after choosing good food, she returned to Selina.
Congratulations to the protagonist ’s happy birthday today, the dinner is coming to an end, Klein and Benson are invited to join the ranks of Texas hold 'em poker, small blind half-penny, big blind 1p, and friends such as Melissa and Elizabeth, Selina went second floor, I don't know if it's a chat or another game.
Klein is out of luck today. After playing for twenty or so, he never got a good hand. He can only keep watching and discarding cards to act as a watcher.
He raised the corner of the card again and found that it was Red Heart 2 and Spade 5.
"Do you want to bluff?" Klein thought for a moment, but still failed to sum up the courage, and restrained the urge to cheat with divination.
He covered the cards, knocked on the table, beckoned not to call, and then got up and left the long table to go to the bathroom.
Mister Russell is also a person with obsessive-compulsive disorder. He even found a strange reason to continue to name this play style as Texas hold 'em ... Klein while shaking his head.
At this moment, he suddenly stopped and his eyes narrowed.
His spiritual sense told him that there were strange fluctuations upstairs!
