Mystery: Lucky One

Chapter 4 Chapter 4 Have you heard of The Fool?

Eating lunch with your eyes closed is obviously not a wise choice.

Sitting opposite Klein, Alice, who had wrapped a cloth around her eyes to prevent herself from accidentally opening them, began to regret her decision for countless times.

What troubled her most about this matter was not that she couldn't find food - for some reason, she was almost very good at moving with her eyes closed.

In fact, what Alice hates most is not being able to see the appearance of the food. Even if frankly speaking, Loen is not a country rich in delicious food, but Alice still believes that at least half of the appetite comes from the appearance of the food.

...Speaking of which, as far as Roen's food level is concerned, even opening his eyes will only affect his mood for eating, right?
Of course, this did not prevent Alice from being angry about this, so she used the same attitude towards her enemies and viciously tore off a piece of bread, just like tearing off a piece of meat from her enemy.

It is undeniable that this formalistic act of revenge did scare Klein to a certain extent, so he stopped talking several times, but it was a pity that it was a wink to the blind man - who let Alice block her eyes?

"I thought you had something to tell me." Alice, who once again tore off a piece of bread, couldn't help but speak first.

Klein was obviously disturbed by the name Alice blurted out. He had been thinking about this question almost all morning. At this moment, of course, he did not hesitate to ask the wording he had organized all morning: "That name... Where have you heard of it?"

"I don't know," Alice said, tearing off another piece of bread.

This answer made the scene freeze. Klein was not sure whether he should continue asking. He could only stiffly make the sound that people most often make when they are confused: "...Huh?"

"You must have heard that I lost my memory, right?" Alice gave up fighting with the bread and looked at Klein with her covered eyes - of course she couldn't see anything.

"Then why..." Klein looked at Alice in confusion. Of course he had heard that this lucky lady had lost her memory about the past, but there was no way that there was someone named Zhou Mingrui in Luen. She She must have learned the name somewhere else—what if she could remember it?

"In my last...or first memory," Alice put down the bread and sat up straight, showing a rare serious attitude, "there was a sportsman wearing that kind of ugly and baggy shirt with the school emblem on it. The girl in the service called me 'Huanhuan'... I remember we should be classmates." (Words in quotation marks are in Chinese, the same below)
"...'Huanhuan'?" Klein was stunned, and a guess emerged from the bottom of his heart - after all, this was obviously not a Loen-style name.

"Yes, and she seems to be speaking another language..." Alice made a thinking expression, "a language completely different from Rune's language system."

"'Chinese'?" Klein couldn't bear it anymore and decided to show off his cards first - after all, the amnesiac Miss Lucky One probably couldn't remember much, and from the description, he suspected that the Miss Lucky One was not very old.

"As expected, you know," the corner of Alice's mouth curled up in pleasure. Even if she couldn't see her eyes, she could still feel her happiness. "You must have something to do with that place... So, can you tell me who 'Zhou Mingrui' is?" Who?"

"...It's me." Klein reluctantly admitted.

"!" Alice felt even more excited, "Then have you heard of 'car'? Have you heard of 'neon light'? Have you heard of 'Internet'? Have you heard of..."

"I've heard of it all." Klein interrupted Alice. He finally realized the purpose of Miss Lucky—she was like a duckweed looking for a fixed point. The world in her memory was different from Runen's, but she couldn't remember the people or things related to it - maybe she even forgot her own name.

How much better am I than her? Klein laughed at himself, shook his head, and said to Alice, "Maybe we come from the same place, a place called 'Earth'."

"'Earth'," Alice repeated the word, and then subconsciously recited a string of words, "'is the third planet 1.5 million kilometers away from the sun, and is also the only celestial body known to mankind that breeds and supports life... …'”

Then this recitation was ruthlessly interrupted by Klein: "Stop!"

Alice paused.

"Do you still remember how you traveled through time... uh, you know... do you still remember what traveling through time means?" Klein tried to bring the topic back on track. "I can't remember, but I can imagine," Alice replied, "If I remember correctly, I should be dead? Well... I remember I was talking to the girl who called me 'Huanhuan', and then she Suddenly he acted frightened and screamed at me to be careful, and then I just felt a sharp pain..."

Remembering death was obviously not a pleasant experience. The pain that penetrated so deeply into her soul that Alice could not even discern a spiritual warning from it, so she stopped and did not continue.

Klein also realized that there was something wrong with the way he asked. It was obviously inappropriate to ask this question. He changed the way he asked: "I mean, have you encountered anything special?"

"Can you be more specific?" Alice asked confused. Although she most likely couldn't remember it, what if she remembered it as soon as she was reminded.

"That is, something that seems to be related to the occult? For example, a strange spell or ritual or something... maybe an item?"

"..." Alice frowned and began to think.

"One thing...I'm not sure."

"what?"

"I...the last thing I heard her say was that she said I looked like a born monster."

"A born monster?"

"...The lucky one's Sequence 9 is called a monster."

Klein didn't make a sound for a long time - he really didn't know what he should say. Alice's words made him feel cold all over, and he didn't dare to think about it at all.

Alice also didn't choose to break this embarrassment, or in other words, she didn't have the energy to do it now.

"The fool who does not belong to this era,
"The mysterious master above the gray fog,

"The king of yellow and black who controls good luck,

"I beg you to hear me,

"I pray for your attention..."

In the thick white mist, the familiar girl was folding her hands and reciting this passage in a rather artificial pious gesture and tone - of course, it was still in Chinese.

She seemed to be setting an example for me.

Alice quickly realized the situation, but when she was about to continue thinking, indistinguishable murmurs and murmurs broke into the white fog, making her face pale, and the fog dissipated.

"Have you ever heard of... The Fool?" She turned her face towards Klein blankly and asked in an ethereal voice.

　In fact, this book came from my excitement when I couldn't sleep in the middle of the night. When I woke up yesterday and found out that it had been reviewed, I regretted it and wanted to delete my account and run away... But I found out that some people actually read it (tactical backtracking), huh Anyway, since some people have read it, I will try my best to write...
