Chapter: 418
Thanks to the "Joker" potion... He silently breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the whistle clean, and blew hard.
Without a sound, the huge messenger disintegrated into hazy white bones, and got into the floor.

The Tussock River runs through Backlund, leaving many docks here.
Alger Wilson, wearing the priest's robes of the Church of the Storm, walked slowly off the passenger ship.
He saw people coming and going on the pier, countless porters were sweating, and the scene was lively and noisy.
"It's been a long time, Backlund." Argel murmured silently to himself.
After leaving Azik's house, Klein returned to Daffodil Street in a public carriage.
Click, he took out the key to open the door, and suddenly saw a figure sitting in the dining room.
Klein subconsciously clenched the cane in his hand, but soon realized that it was not the thief, but the maid Bella.
Bella was concentrating on reading the newspapers spread out on the table. When she heard the sound of the door opening, she was also startled. She stood up and stammered to explain: "I, I just finished my work in the morning. Waiting, waiting for the water to boil to eat, to eat bread."
Sure enough, I haven't gotten used to the sudden addition of a maid at home... Klein laughed at himself, took off his hat, and nodded slightly: "Reading is a good habit, and being able to persist in reading after busy work is encouraged by the goddess."
He was afraid that the other party would think he was mocking him, so he used the name of Evernight Goddess.
But in fact, only the God of Knowledge and Wisdom puts reading in a lofty position... Of course, no matter which church, it advocates learning... Well, at the age of seventeen or eighteen, I believe in the Goddess of the Night, which shows that I was influenced by my parents , and such parents, as long as they are not completely helpless, will definitely let their daughter receive education. Public elementary schools cannot afford it, and free church schools are still fine. Words, being able to read newspapers... Klein put away his cane thoughtfully, and walked into the living room.
For Bella, his impression is quite good.
Although the little girl seemed immature and clumsy in the kitchen, she showed an attitude of being willing to learn and working hard.
Bella lowered her hands and said with a little embarrassment: "I haven't read newspapers much before, and the landlord doesn't allow us to buy old newspapers to paste the walls... I just picked it up and wiped the coffee table. I took a careful look at it and thought, I found it very interesting."
Poor girl, when I traveled here, the newspapers were at the bottom of the interesting list... Klein slandered, smiled, followed the silver watch chain, took out his pocket watch, snapped it open, and said casually: "As long as you have finished your work and done it well, you can arrange other time freely without being nervous. Of course, if I am chatting with Benson and Melissa, you'd better stay in your room. I give you permission to use the gas lamp inside, and bring in some old newspapers."
"Well, you knock on my bedroom door at one o'clock in the afternoon, and then prepare me a cup of Xibo black tea, two soft white breads, a piece of oatmeal toast, and a small dish of cream."
In order to celebrate his promotion to Sequence 8, Klein decided to spend a little extravagance and eat the white bread that Benson planned to enjoy on weekends in advance.
Well, I will buy another 8 pounds and come back, and the staple food will be changed from oat bread to white bread in the future! Extraordinary of Sequence 8, the weekly salary will definitely increase... The captain didn't mention this before... He forgot again! Klein was taken aback for a moment, and decided to ask about it tomorrow.
"Okay, okay." Bella responded with surprise.
Then, she asked back with some uncertainty: "Mr. Klein, is it Xibo black tea for entertaining guests?"
Because the whole family is Moretti, she honors them by their first names.
"Yes, that will be the usual tea from now on." Klein waved his hand and walked towards the stairs.
After becoming a "clown", he suddenly found that his financial situation has become very good.
This is because there are no additional and large expenses for the time being, so the daily fixed 2 soli rent-a-carriage fee for the red chimney house and occasional material supplements are checked, and the latter can be reimbursed in many cases.
The second is because Klein's unregistered account is quietly holding 300 gold pounds. You know, fields and pastures in the countryside only cost 5 to .5 soli per hectare, which means that he can buy 920 gold pounds. Up to 200 hectares of rural fields or pastures, which is roughly equivalent to 37 to 79 acres on the earth, or 23 to 30 acres. In addition, this money can also allow him to buy a house on Narcissus Street with a lease term for 5 years .
If all of it is replaced by land, the land rent income is about 23 to 3 pounds per year...not bad, but there is no need for this at the moment, the 300 pounds have to be kept for emergencies... Phew, I have to find a chance to tell my real weekly salary in these two days Benson and Melissa are out! Klein entered his bedroom while thinking.
After locking the door, Klein sat on the bed and began to meditate again. In this way, he slowly controlled the small amount of power overflowing from the potion, and was very careful. JrNovels.com
