Mystery: Lucky One

Chapter 110 Chapter 72 Mr. "World" is not really a nanny, right?
Audrey remembered what Alice said at the Tarot meeting on Monday.

What is destiny?

Alice's voice continued to sound:

"When I just woke up, a Sequence 7 'lucky person' fell to death in front of me. By chance, I swallowed his extraordinary characteristics.

"Just by hearing the name, you should know that this is a sequence that changes luck - but he was unlucky enough to fall to his death.

"Later, it was the person who was pregnant with the heir of the 'True Creator' - she fell to the ground, and the bone knife that her arm turned into cut herself off...

"Later, it was the devil dog...well, it was not dead. Maybe it was keenly aware of the hidden danger and escaped.

"And now..."

Alice didn't finish her words, but Audrey already thought of Charlie: King, who was said to be met by chance. She asked hesitantly: "Do you think he will suddenly fall to death in front of you or one of us?"

"No," Alice shook her head, "Although I think he will definitely die inexplicably...but to be honest, fate shouldn't be so uncreative that it keeps letting people fall to death, right?"

Looking at Alice complaining about her lack of creativity in fate, Audrey suddenly didn't know what to say.

In her silence, Alice pushed the empty cup out again and looked at her longingly.

Audrey was silent for a moment and asked, "Didn't you really come here just to eat ice cream?"

"It's really not this time..." Alice replied quietly.

"...So it will be next time?" Audrey heard the subtext in Alice's words.

Alice raised her head and began to study the patterns on the ceiling.

Audrey asked the maid to get the third ice cream with a headache, and then asked: "Actually, I'm a little curious...how old are you?"

"This body should look like that of a fifteen or sixteen year old." Alice said, looking in the direction of the door longingly.

"This body?" Alice's words once again aroused Audrey's alert.

Alice blinked and began to play dumb.

Viscount Graylint walked in with the maid. He said to Audrey: "I'm sorry to disturb you, Audrey, but this is the third ice cream you have asked for."

"She ate it." Audrey pointed at Alice who was looking at the maid longingly.

Viscount Grayling looked at Alice hesitantly, and Alice had to reluctantly look away and asked doubtfully: "So I can't eat the third portion?"

"..." Viscount Graylingt couldn't help but have the same doubt as Audrey - this girl must have come here specifically to eat ice cream!
"Let her eat, Gray Linte," Audrey sighed helplessly, "She...she is that kind of person too."

Viscount Graylint's pupils shrank. He asked the maid to put down the ice cream and go out. Then he looked at Audrey excitedly. When he was about to ask for confirmation, he heard Alice's emotionless voice:
"I didn't allow you to tell anything about me, Audrey."

Alice's eyes fell softly on Audrey. Although there was no pressure on her, Audrey felt that the atmosphere in the room suddenly became stagnant, and she subconsciously held her breath.

Viscount Grayling's performance was not much better. Although he was not Alice's main focus, the spiritual warning still made him turn pale.

At this moment, Audrey finally accepted from her heart the hypothesis that Alice might be a powerful extraordinary person or even a god. When Audrey felt like she was going to be out of breath, Alice finally withdrew her gaze, scooped up a scoop of ice cream and stuffed it into her mouth, showing a happy smile.

Audrey breathed a sigh of relief, adjusted her somewhat stiff sitting posture, and tentatively asked Alice:

"Sorry? Well, I mean, now that I've told him, how are we going to handle this?"

Alice raised her head, licked her lips and asked, "Do you know what the protagonists in ordinary novels would say?"

Audrey shook her head.

Alice glanced at Gray Lint, who was afraid to speak, then glanced at the ice cream in her hand, tilted her head and said, "Forget it, it doesn't seem good to scare the host of the banquet like this."

Gray Lint was silent for a moment, then opened the door and said to the maid outside: "Have someone send you another ice cream."

Alice then also sweetly said to Viscount Gray Lint: "Thank you∽"

After a pause, Alice asked again: "Can you invite me to the next party?"

Viscount Gray Lint looked at Audrey hesitantly.

Audrey was silent for a moment and said, "She probably just wants to eat ice cream."

Viscount Graylingt opened his mouth, closed it again, and organized his words several times before replying dryly: "No problem."

"Okay!" Alice was excited for a moment, and then added as if she remembered something, "By the way, don't tell anyone about me."

Although Alice acted like she mentioned it casually, as someone who had just faced the pressure, Audrey still kept it in mind.

Viscount Graylingt also quickly expressed his understanding, and then he left the room that left a psychological shadow on him, using the excuse that he could not leave the table for a long time as the host.

Now, only Alice and Audrey were left in the room again.

——It’s just that, after what she had just experienced, Audrey could no longer chat with Alice without the same psychological burden as she did at the beginning.

"Now," Alice turned her head and decided to provide some psychological counseling to Audrey, "I think I should look much kinder than Mr. Fool, right?"

Audrey looked at Alice hesitantly - the innocence of a child does make her seem more kind, but if you think of her as a resurrected god, her childishness will also make people think of moodiness.

"Audrey," Alice narrowed her eyes and looked at her and said softly, "I like the feeling of living as a human being."

……

When Alice finished her fourth serving of ice cream and looked at her with pitiful eyes, Audrey's attitude when facing Alice finally changed from awe to being a naughty child.

She firmly refused Alice's request for a fifth ice cream, dragging Alice out of the room and watching her the entire time to prevent her from eating any more ice cream.

When Alice left gloomily, Audrey even had the urge to send her back to prevent her from buying another ice cream on the way - otherwise she really suspected that Alice would end up in the hospital!

...So Mr. "World" couldn't really have been sent by Mr. Fool to take care of the children, right?
Of course, Audrey definitely didn't ask this question. She just exchanged addresses with Alice and repeatedly promised to invite Alice over when she could hold a banquet.
