MTL - Examination of the Imperial Examination-Chapter 49 telegraph

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

Tingen, 2nd floor, 36 Zoetland Street.

I didn't find Antignus's notes at Riel Bieber's house. I saw Klein and Old Neil and the others. They pushed open the door and just entered.

"Klein has your letter." Susan's energetic voice came.

"My?" Klein, who had just entered the door, was taken aback for a moment, and asked uncertainly.

"It's the owner of the Hound Bar, sent by Wright."

Alvin walked out of the alley and looked up at the sky, feeling that the sun's rays are particularly strong today.

He bought a newspaper at the corner of the street and found a rental carriage. Since his new home was too far from the Backlund Bank, he decided to take out all the money in the account for future use.

The last time I bought a spell, I had 144 pounds left, and the bank had 70 pounds. I bought 3 pounds of meat for the penalty person this morning and earned 300 pounds. I spent 4 pounds in the past two days, and I carried a huge sum of 510 pounds. Tell the driver to go to the new home in the North District

On the carriage, Alvin opened the newspaper and saw it on the fifth page, a familiar one went. All surviving crew members of the "Clover" were released yesterday in the port of Enmatt.

"Looks like our little witch will return to Tingen in the next two days."

Twenty minutes later, the carriage stopped in front of a single-family house at No. 3, Nicholas Street, North District.

Alvin took the suitcase and walked out of the carriage with Yuumi. Looking at the single-family house in front of him, he took out the key from his pocket and walked in.

There are two floors, six rooms upstairs, three bathrooms, two large balconies, a dining room downstairs, a living room, a kitchen, two bathrooms, two guest rooms, and a basement storage room... Outside, there is a private lawn of 1 are in front, and a small garden in the back, surrounded by a circle of wooden fences as high as one person.

On the second floor, Alvin stood on the balcony, pointed around, and said to the curious Yuumi on his shoulder, "This will be our new home from now on."

Yuumi's eyes lit up when she heard that, and she jumped off her shoulders and looked around.

Alvin looked at the happy Yuumi, smiled, and began to look around.

Then he walked to the living room on the first floor and said to Yuumi who was standing on the sofa:

"The place is a bit big. It seems necessary to hire two sweeping maids."

Yuumi flicked her tail, ignoring it, and walked out of the door to inspect the outside.

Alvin returned to the second floor, took out the daily necessities from the suitcase, chose a bedroom in Xiangyang to arrange the things, and then took out his pen, ink, paper and inkstone and went to the study to sort them one by one.

"I have a study myself." After finishing the work, Alvin smiled when he looked at his study and the empty bookshelves.

"In ancient times, half of the Analects of Confucius ruled the world, but today I firmly say that there is a book that can be read all over the world." He took out "Tragedy on Earth", flipped through it, and put it in his pocket.

Walking to the door, Alvin called to Yuumi, "Yumi is gone, go to the teacher's house."

The new home is not too far from the teacher's house. After walking for about 10 minutes, I came to the teacher's two-story hut on the street.

"Meow"

Yuumi looked at the garden in front of her, then looked back at the direction she came from, and let out a soft cry.

"You can come to the teacher's place to play by yourself in the future." Alvin said softly to Yuumi with his head turned sideways.

Yuumi on the shoulder mountain shook her ears, jumped off his shoulder, trotted all the way, and skillfully passed through the iron fence.

After a while, Mr. Geralt's exclamation came from the small garden. He shook his head and smiled, walked to the gate of the iron fence, and pushed the gate.

"How did you feel in the first actual combat?"

Geralt took a pot of freshly boiled black tea, brought himself a cup, and sat comfortably in the rocking chair, looking at Alvin who was stooping to work.

"Well, I learned a lot."

He moved the gardener's hat on his head, but did not confide in the extraordinary incident to the teacher.

"Yumi also helped a lot. It likes the dried fish you made, teacher, but I lost its animal skin bag." Afraid that the teacher would ask for details, he quickly changed the subject.

"Haha, isn't it?" Geralt smiled and turned to look at the little guy who was lowering his body to attack Alvin.

"Meow"

Yuumi jumped on the table and replied with her head raised.

Just when Alvin was finishing his work and preparing to pack up, the gardener's hat on his head was knocked off, and he saw Yuumi, tail cocked, walking past him.

He was accustomed to Yuumi's sneak attack, bent down to pick up his hat, saw a delicate little animal skin bag hanging around Yuumi's neck, and the corner of his mouth twitched.

This guy is here to show off, and by the way, to avenge himself for using up his bag last night.

"Teacher, you spoiled it so much, did you forget that it spoiled your flowers? No wonder the past life forums said that cats, respecting the old and loving the young, catching the middle and going to death."

"Teacher, I've moved. It's right in front of No. 3 Nicholas Street." After packing up the tools, he walked to the small table, picked up the kettle, and got himself a glass of water.

"Moving? Yes, if you have a vision, I would say that the environment in the north is the best. That guy old William is not willing to move over and stick to his bar." Geralt took a sip of black tea and said with a smile.

"Hehe, teacher, you and Mr. Williams are really a natural match."

Alvin smiled and didn't speak.

"Oh, by the way, there's a letter from you on the table in the room this morning." Geralt put down the glass and continued.

"Letter? Is there any news from lawyer Benoy?"

He quickly got up and walked to the hut, found the letter, and opened the envelope.

Pulling out the items inside, the first thing that caught his eye was a piece of paper, which was used by ordinary people in the telegraph office.

The above reads: It's done, come quickly, Hillston, Townsend Street, Red Roof Inn.

"It's done, there is hope for my second ceremony." Alvin waved his arms excitedly.

"Leave tomorrow and go to Backlund."

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

July 8, Sunday.

Woo! Woo!

The sound of the whistle echoed in every corner of the platform, and the huge monster-like steam train pulled more than 20 carriages and slowly stopped.

Wearing a formal tuxedo, Alvin took Yuumi on his shoulders and stepped steadily on the ground of Backlund, the capital of the Loen Kingdom.

This city is diagonally divided into two parts by the Tussock River that flows to the southeast, and is connected by the Backlund Bridge and the ferry. With a population of more than five million, it is the most prosperous city in the North and South Continents.

As far as the eye can see, there is light yellow fog everywhere, and the visibility is extremely poor. The gas lamps hanging on the platform were lit one by one earlier, dispelling the gloom and darkness.

6:50...Alvin opened his pocket watch and glanced at the time. Following the crowd, he slowly walked out of the steam train station.

He stopped in a place where there were relatively few people, and rubbed his nose to relieve the sudden discomfort.

Yuumi on his shoulders kept sneezing~www.novelbuddy.com~ was a little depressed, and it was even more difficult for him to adapt with a keen sense of smell.

Suddenly, I felt that someone bumped into me, and then I smelled the damp smell that I haven't showered for a long time and then stayed in a humid place for a long time. I was about to speak.

"Sorry sir." The man walked away with his head down.

The corners of Alvin's mouth were slightly raised, and he saw the man's hand coming out of his suit pocket, still pinching his wallet, the last one pinching the wrist that was about to be retracted, and twisting it slightly.

"Ah." The man cried out in pain and turned around.

At this time, I could also see the man's appearance clearly. I didn't know how long it had been washing his hair, his clothes were torn, and there was a sour smell.

"This gentleman, taking other people's things without saying hello is not a gentleman's behavior."

He smiled, took a slight step back, took back the wallet from the other party's hand, and released his palm.

"Give it to me, kid, I'm a member of the Zimang party, if you don't want to cause trouble."

The thief looked at the wallet that Alvin took back, recalled the thickness he felt when his fingers touched the wallet just now, swallowed his saliva, and said fiercely with his eyes wide open.

"Zimange Party?" Alvin frowned, always feeling that the name was somewhat familiar.

"Don't be afraid. If you don't want to cause trouble, give it to me."

When the thief saw Alvin's appearance, he thought that the other party was afraid, and his tone became more and more arrogant.

"The members of the Zimange Party are all from the plateau and never recruit outsiders." At this moment, a slightly green voice came from the side.

Thank you "Omachi Kai" for the reward.
