Under the light of the fireworks, a smile appeared on his face. Although this table is not luxurious, it gives Klein a quite familiar feeling.
At this time, he seemed to have returned to the time when he was still in Tingen City. No one needed to use all kinds of strange objects to plot against him, and he did not need to worry that he would be killed by someone or Amon at any unwary moment. attack.
Klein knew that his life had changed a lot compared to before. But he is still willing to indulge in this now, indulge in the short-term happiness, and turn into the cold and crazy adventurer Gehrman Sparrow after leaving here.
No matter who I play, I am still myself... Klein, who had played Sherlock Moriarty before, suddenly felt enlightened. He sat at the table, feeling a little more enlightened.
Perhaps this is one of the rules for playing the Faceless Man... Klein picked up the chopsticks next to him, with a smile on his face.
Ever since Zhou Mingrui came to this world, he has actually been pretending to be someone else, a phantom once called Klein Moretti. If you want to play the "faceless man" perfectly, this code is essential.
If you regard yourself as someone else in the changes, or you are addicted to the person you play as a more perfect person than yourself. Then you will eventually lose your anchoring to yourself and gradually move towards the abyss of losing control.
Therefore, I must always remember who I am. I am Zhou Mingrui, and I am also Klein... Klein secretly warned himself what he should pay attention to, and then looked at the table in front of him.
Just taking a glance at it, Klein couldn't help but be surprised by the dishes on it. Compared to people in this world, they prefer the Chinese cuisine style before they traveled through time.
Thinking of this, Klein felt a little more moved in his heart. While listening to the sound of fireworks outside the window, Klein looked at Gao Wei in front of him.
"This is an elf-style dish. Klein and I like it very much. I hope you will like it too." Gao Wei introduced it to the three people in front of him with a smile on his face - mainly to Benson and Mei. Lisa introduced the two.
This is so that Benson and Melissa, brother and sister, will not notice Klein's familiarity and nostalgia for these dishes. With this said, even if the two of them knew that Klein was familiar with these dishes, they would not have much reaction.
"Gao Wei, can you tell us what these are called?" Benson said to Gao Wei in front of him quite relaxedly. For him, he and his sister have now arrived in the Southern Continent, and Gao Wei has also arranged a house equivalent to a single-family villa for him.
Although the population of the Southern Continent is smaller in some places and the price of houses is far lower than that of Loen, this is enough to prove the friendliness of Gao Wei himself.
Of course, Benson knew about the relationship between his brother and Gao Wei, and he also made up his mind to continue working in Gao Wei's company and create more profits for him.
This can be regarded as some small tacit understanding between people. A person's quality is generally linked to his living conditions. After basic life is guaranteed, Benson has the time to think about other things.
"Of course." Gao Wei smiled and looked at the dish in front of him: "This is tomato beef brisket soup. Klein told me that when he made this dish for you before, there was no rice here. "
"But even if it is eaten with bread, the tomato oxtail soup that Klein made before left a deep impression on us. It was really delicious." Melissa puffed her mouth and tried clumsily with the chopsticks in her hand. Picked up some rice, but failed in the end.
"Come on, Melissa, you can try this." Klein also tried using chopsticks several times on his sister, and Melissa finally succeeded after many attempts.
Just when she was excitedly picking up a piece of beef brisket and preparing to put it into her mouth, she found that her brother Klein had already picked up the spoon next to him and scooped up a large spoonful of beef with soup and tomatoes, and "snapped" it. Covered the rice in his bowl.
This... After comparing the amount of food between the two, Melissa was stunned here. Then she said angrily to Klein opposite her:
"Klein is so cunning!"
"Haha..." Klein smiled awkwardly and quickly argued: "This is called being good at using tools, Melissa... ahem, come and try this, you should like it."
The direction that Klein pointed with his chopsticks was a tenderloin topped with sweet and sour sauce and sprinkled with white sesame seeds, which looked quite appetizing. The tenderloin here seems to be covered with a layer of sugar shell, but if you look closely, you will find that the golden fat and sweet and sour sauce are mixed together to form a thick layer of sauce.
"Sweet and sour pork, a sweet and sour dish, I think you will like it."
"Klein, you don't want to see me make a fool of myself again, do you?" Melissa looked at her brother with some suspicion. She vaguely felt that since Klein became an extraordinary person, he has become a little more affectionate. It was a prank.
"How could this happen?" Klein asked a little aggrievedly. He directly stretched out his chopsticks to pick up a piece of tenderloin that was shiny under the light, and put it into his mouth.
Klein closed his eyes, chewed it with some enjoyment, and swallowed it. Melissa hesitated for a moment, and finally picked it up with her chopsticks. Before she could start eating, she found her other brother Benson next to her reaching for a fork and inserting a large piece of meat.
"Benson?"
Melissa looked at her other brother in disbelief. Benson also smiled awkwardly and said to his sister:
"Klein is right, I think we still need to be good at using tools. Ahem - I haven't learned how to use this tool yet, so I can only rely on the methods I'm used to before."
"..." Melissa was stunned for a moment, decided not to argue with the two men, and continued to eat the rice in her bowl.
Looking at her two brothers who were "bullying" her at the table in front of her, Melissa suddenly felt that Gao Wei, who was quietly eating the "New Year's Eve dinner" with chopsticks next to her, was quite pleasing to the eye.
…
So delicious.
Feeling a bit self-indulgent, Melissa took a fork and stabbed a piece of fish that was arranged in an arch next to it, and Melissa sighed.
Klein looked at Gao Wei beside him and said a few words to Gao Wei beside him as if he suddenly remembered something. Hearing Klein's words, Gao Wei nodded slightly and snapped his fingers.
…………
In the dim cabin, waves of seawater lapped at the shell of the ghost ship. Leonard, who had just sorted his things into categories and placed them in his room, wiped the sweat from his forehead and sat on the bed, thinking a little.
What is Klein doing now? Are you looking at a chart, or thinking about how to avoid pirates?
Listening to the sound of the waves in his ears, Leonard's spirit gradually sank into the darkness. At this moment, he remembered the mission he had received before leaving. In order to chase the culprit who caused direct losses in the Backlund smog, as well as Ince Zangwill who was hidden behind the scenes, he and Klein embarked on a journey to the sea. journey.
Suddenly, the door in front of him opened with a bang. A shadow twisted in front of him, and a little green flame burned along both sides of the narrow corridor, seeming to guide Leonard in the direction.
"Is this?" Leonard said in confusion, and the door on the opposite side also opened, and Maric and Leonard looked at each other.
"It - this ship seems to want to guide us somewhere." Maric said gloomily. He glanced at Leonard beside him: "Aren't you the first mate here? You should know what this ship wants to do. What does it mean?"
"Um..." Leonard thought for a moment, "Let's follow it forward."
"..." Maric was silent for two seconds: "Isn't this your first time on this ship?"
"……Um."
Leonard nodded: "Captain Sparrow brought me here."
"Okay..." Maric's voice deepened, and he looked keenly at a group of wriggling shadows in front of him.
"Be careful, I don't know if this ship itself has abnormal tendencies - some things are very dangerous, even if they are used by us." Maric whispered, preparing to fight with Leonard on the side Prepare.
Although the ship belonged to their two captains, he still felt that there might be unknown dangers lurking on it.
However, the expected abnormality did not occur. Set off by the green flames, a wriggling shadow held two suspended lunch boxes in its hands and handed them to Leonard and Maric in front of them.
He murmured:
"New Year's Eve dinner, eat, New Year's Eve dinner, eat..."
His intelligence level seems to be very low.
Under the urging of the shadow, the two subconsciously took the lunch box, and saw the squirming shadow completely disappearing in place with a blank look on their faces. Leonard and Maric looked at each other for a moment, and both of them could see the confusion in each other's eyes.
"...I think we can still trust Captain Sparrow." Maric said seriously to Leonard beside him. Leonard also nodded slightly:
"really."
"..."
After saying these words, the corridor of the "Lost Home" fell into a long silence. Leonard coughed slightly and said to Maric in front of him:
"That's it for now, let's eat first."
…………
"Melissa, remember to take care of yourself." Klein touched Melissa's head opposite him, with some tenderness in his eyes. Melissa pursed her lips and said to Klein:
"Klein, I will live a good life in the Southern Continent. Gao Wei told me that I might be able to be a teacher here. In the future, Miskatonic University will also open a charitable branch here, and I can teach there. General education courses.”
"The Southern Continent might be a little dangerous."
Klein solemnly told his sister: "Don't force yourself when you are in danger. You must escape in time and don't put yourself in danger. Some extraordinary people can use something on you, or you The remaining blood will curse you remotely, and you and Benson must be careful not to leave too many traces."
"I understand, Klein." Melissa raised her head and looked at her brother: "I am now a Sequence 8 'Ranger', and my physical strength is much better than before. I will never run like before again. A situation of immobility.”
"This is a good thing, but you must also be careful about your extraordinary characteristics. Remember, you are just pretending - there is also madness in the potion." When Klein said this, he suddenly sighed: "Unfortunately, this The world ultimately belongs to the extraordinary, and if you don’t have strong strength, you may still be affected..."
The innocent people who died one after another in the Backlund smog shocked Klein's heart. They didn't do anything wrong, and they didn't take the initiative to provoke those terrible opponents, but they just died, dead worthless, and no one cared about them.
Because those who cared about them died almost as well, and the spirit at the center of the storm paid no attention to the mediocre anchor. In Backlund, all the "people" who could empathize almost died without any resistance in that disaster.
Those might be their family members, they might be their friends.
"I know." Melissa stood up on her toes and looked into Klein's eyes: "Klein, I know you have great talent on the path to extraordinary, but you don't feel burdened by your talent. Yes. For us, the most important thing is that you can live well and live well."
"I know."
The corners of Klein's mouth turned up slightly. He looked at his sister and touched her head tenderly: "It's the same for me, Melissa."
Why doesn't he want to live an ordinary life? But he knew that the end was approaching. If he didn't improve his order, who could he rely on to help them resist the terrible end? Klein knew that the purpose of gaining power was to enable himself and those important to him to survive the apocalypse.
Having carried that "gray fog" on my back, I naturally shouldered the fate of that gray fog. Amon will hunt him down because of this, and those disasters that will cause the doomsday will also become hostile to him. Under the memory seal of "Origin Castle", this is the limit of Klein's understanding of the starry sky.
He had no choice. He had to provide himself with enough strength to resist Amon's pursuit before Amon found him, and he had to kill Ince Zangwill before he made a bigger plan. I will teach you how to obey the law in the dark night.
Klein stood up and walked in the direction he came from. As he walked, the expression on his face became colder. As the muscles on his face squirmed, Klein transformed into "Gehrman Sparrow".
