"The moon will be full again in two days..." Valeera sighed softly.
Wearing a light blue loose two-piece pajamas, she stood on the inside of the balcony of the master bedroom, facing the cool breeze blowing against her face, looking up at the nearly full red moon in the night sky, feeling lost in thought.
She was thinking about Klein.
Judging from the situation of the "Tarot Club" in the past few days, Klein's recent experience should not have been affected too much... Then, he should pull Xio, who had recited the name of "The Fool", to the gray mist at night. to build strong connections and tomorrow to invest in inventor Leppard’s bicycle project.
According to the original description, Klein’s life was not very peaceful in the next few days——
Because Detective Zerrell entrusted by Ian Wright disappeared, he was involved in the fight for the third-generation Difference Engine manuscript.
Because of his insistence on keeping secrets, Klein was first ambushed at home by "Hunter" Meursault, and then was controlled by "Puppet Master" Rosago to invade the house with wireworms. His life safety was seriously threatened.
Because of this, he went to the "Brave Bar" recommended by Yin En, joined the Extraordinary gathering there, got in touch with Maric and Sharon, and invited Sharon to be his bodyguard for three days.
It was precisely because of this that he issued the mission of "Assassinating Ambassador Intis" in the "Tarot Club", so that he could obtain the subsequent magic potion formula of the "Soothsayer" path after counter-killing "Secret Puppet Master" Rosago.
That's not all.
While dealing with these crises, Klein also completed Mary's commission to capture women, explored the underground ruins on Williams Street, saw the statues of the six righteous gods, and came into contact with the "three-in-one" red Angel Evil Soren Einhorn Medici.
It’s hard to imagine that this was just his experience for one week.
Valeera wasn't sure whether reality would be consistent with the description in the original book, but she hoped it would be.
Of course, it's not absolute.
She hopes that the details of some things will change slightly according to her own arrangements and wishes, so that she can achieve her goals——
Meet Crane.
When Klein was just resurrected, she actually expressed her wish to meet on the gray mist, but as the "Fool" at that time, Klein did not respond directly.
Klein, Klein, it's so hard to meet you... Valeera felt angry when she thought of the mysterious look on her face when "The Fool" rejected her.
For Valeela, after the Tingen incident is over, the sooner she and Klein meet, the better.
This not only allows her to more accurately grasp the deviation between reality and the description in the original work, so that she can make timely corrections; more importantly, it is also time for their relationship to advance to a new stage.
The arrangements that need to be made have been completed, and all that is left is to wait.
Of course, because Klein's divination was so powerful that it was unreasonable, Valeela only dared to make some end-to-end arrangements to prevent any flaws from being discovered.
I hope I left a deep enough impression on Mary... Valeela laughed, shook her head, and turned back indoors.
…
After a good night's sleep, Valeela had a relaxing weekend.
There was no job and no danger of being attacked.
If I had to find one thing that needed to be dealt with, it would probably only be a visit during tea time on Sunday——
On Friday morning, Valeela received the first prize of the "Creative Collection Activity" and an invitation to visit that was said to be handwritten by Professor Portland Momont.
For Valeera, this is not just a visit, but an important meeting that must be attended.
Saturday's schedule is empty.
Valeera took a walk, played with the dog, read a book, played the piano, sang, and danced. The day passed so easily——
This kind of life is also the norm for ordinary noble ladies. When it comes to social occasions such as balls, they will communicate with each other and talk about related topics, showing and competing with each other about their elegant sentiments.
After experiencing and resolving several embarrassing situations, both big and small, Valeela had no choice but to learn from Lydia.
You have some knowledge in this area, you don’t need to be very proficient, you just need to be able to follow the topic.
After all, not all of those aristocratic ladies and ladies are truly talented.
On Sunday afternoon, Valeera took a carriage to Boklund Street in the North District——
Professor Portland Mormont lives at 100 Burklund Street, and his private laboratory is located underground in his garden.
Valeera estimated that it might also be his "workshop" where he made magical items.
It is a long journey from the West End to the North End, and it takes about two hours to pass through the entire Hillston District.
Of course, the basic requirement for a good coachman is to be able to control the driving speed to ensure that the carriage can reach its destination at the right time.
At half past three, tea time, more than a dozen carriages arrived within a few minutes.
These were faculty and staff whose creativity was recognized, across departments and ranks, and Valeela only knew a small number of them.
Professor Portland Mormont is an old man with a loud voice, a tall stature, and a rosy face. He looks about sixty years old. His hair is still thick, but it is completely white. His facial features are very typical of ordinary Loen people. There is nothing wrong with him. Features.
He greeted guests in the foyer with a smile, and he seemed like a very easy-to-get-to person.
During the pleasant afternoon tea time, the guests and hosts had a great time. Everyone let their minds wander and spoke freely on topics related to construction machinery, and even made a few small amateur jokes.
When everyone's conversation subsided, Professor Portland laughed and said:
"After chatting for so long, I think it's time to satisfy everyone's curiosity and take you to my private laboratory.
"There are a few ideas, relatively small ones. I have actually made the first version of the prototype. You can guess what they are.
"The entrance is near the garden, everyone follow me."
With that said, Professor Portland stood up from the single sofa and led the way out of the living room with steady steps. More than a dozen guests were talking to each other and followed him in a slightly chaotic manner.
Valeela purposely came last.
After walking a few steps and just exiting the hall, Professor Portland's daughter Sasha came to her side as if by accident. Amidst the conversations of people around her, she said in a voice as thin as a gnat:
"The private laboratory is divided into two parts. The main part outside is normal, and the small studio inside is my father's "workshop."
"He will select a guest to visit later by asking questions. The answer is..."
After listening to this very fast prompt, Valeela glanced at her and nodded to show that she heard clearly.
The group of people walked along the stone path in the courtyard.
While walking through the garden, Valeela noticed that there were several flowers that were still blooming in the midsummer season. With her extraordinary eyesight, she saw that there were inconspicuous smoke exhaust vents in those places, which were similar to the streets above the subway. Similar to the one set up in the street garden.
At this time, Professor Portland's hearty voice sounded not far ahead:
"This is it.
"Welcome to my private laboratory."

(PS: The following is not included in the number of charged words.)
The recent plot was conceived like walking through a maze.
It is the latest chapter, the end point is the plot point I want, and the original plot is the wall of the maze.
I needed to spend a lot of time and energy to determine whether several possible directions could be followed. To this end, I read the second volume of the original work many times with questions.
Although many people may not believe it, I still want to say:
I really don't know how to be a eunuch!
It’s not like I’m being lazy!
I'm really stuck and can't code... I want to resume the update rhythm more than my book friends!
