Mystery: Lucky

Enmart Street, Mapel Grocery Store.

"Hello," Alice said with a smile after looking around the layout of the store, "I want to buy a dice."

The owner was a kind elderly lady. After looking Alice up and down for a few times, she said: "The dice you need is worth 1 pound." Note ①

Alice paused for a moment, and a sentence very similar to this sentence suddenly popped up in her mind: "The price of the shirt is 9 pounds and 15 pence, so you choose option C..." Note ②

Alice shook her head, threw away the voice in her mind, then took out a 1 pound note and handed it over, and in her heart she once again sighed about the "Life School" of fate.

—— Uniqueness is placed in a grocery store and only sold for 1 pound. Isn't it that the destined person gets it?

In this way, perhaps I can also be regarded as a kind of protagonist... While waiting, Alice suddenly remembered her protagonist theory. This idea came up inexplicably, she smiled, and the smile quickly disappeared.

——Whether they are the protagonist or the supporting role, they are just characters living in other people's writings. There is nothing to be happy about.

Alice sighed, took the ring box she had seen in her dream from the store owner, and turned to leave the grocery store.

"How is it?" Klein, who was waiting outside, asked after seeing her.

Alice raised the ring box in her hand and said, "I haven't opened it yet - I think, judging from the situation when I saw the potion before, it is not a good idea to open it here."

Klein nodded, then asked, "Do you want to go back to the hotel to open it?"

Alice blinked blankly, reached out and touched her stomach, and asked hesitantly, "Can't I have a meal first?"

It was too reasonable, Klein could not refute it, he could only take Alice to eat.

When he saw Alice throw the ring box aside and pick up the menu to order food, Klein finally understood why people in the "fate" path would throw uniqueness to the grocery store.

...This must be influenced by the upper class, right? !

Alice didn't pay attention to what Klein was thinking. After reading it carefully, she asked a question that was crucial to both of them: "Are you treating me?"

This made Klein, who had not intended to let Alice pay, silent for a moment, and asked tactfully: "Perhaps, have you heard of AA?"

Alice pondered for a moment and asked: "Then have you heard of AAB?"

"What does it mean?" Klein asked in confusion.

Alice put down the menu, scanned the surrounding environment, and chose Chinese, which was more convenient to express:

"If there are only two of us, maybe it should be called AB system."

"You treat me, and I eat with a shameless face."

After more than ten seconds of silence, Klein hit back at her with what she had just said to Danitz: "Girls should not say dirty words."

Alice was choked, then looked at Klein and said seriously: "Actually, I have an idea."

"What? "Klein suddenly had a bad feeling and frowned.

Alice blinked twice and said eagerly: "There must be many Storm Lord churches in Bayam..."

After more than ten seconds of silence, Klein showed the kind expression of an elder and said: "Alice, let's talk about your enrollment."

Alice lowered her head, pretending that she didn't hear anything, picked up the menu and started ordering.

Klein reached out and took the menu away, keeping a smile and said:

"I'm serious.

"I suspect that if you continue like this, the goddess will tie you up and take you to class."

Alice's body stiffened slightly, she seriously reflected on her mistakes, then raised her head and said:

"Maybe I should steal the 'Aurora Society'... Uh, do they really have money?

"The Eternal Sun and the God of Knowledge and Wisdom don't have churches in Backlund...

"Maybe you can try the 'Witch Sect'? Well, you can also consider other secret organizations...

"But in fact, if we talk about money, the God of Steam and Machinery is richer, right? After all, a ‘craftsman’…

“But the money in their donation box may not be much—or rather, it should be about the same, right? The Steam Church mainly has many extraordinary items…

“You, why do you have that expression?”

Klein glanced at Alice, who didn’t think there was anything wrong with her at all. He didn’t want to chat with her, so he picked up the menu and went to call the waiter.

After the dishes were served, Alice pushed the ring box farther away and started eating attentively. This scene made Klein confused for a moment.

The meal time passed quickly, and even though Alice ate very slowly, or enjoyed it very much, it didn’t bring any changes.

When they finally finished dinner and paid by AB system, Alice stood up and prepared to leave the restaurant, not realizing that she had forgotten anything.

Klein felt a little confused. He reached out and pulled Alice back, gritted his teeth and asked, “Do you feel like you forgot something? "

Alice blinked blankly.

Klein couldn't bear it anymore and turned the ring box out from the corner, letting it see the light of day again. Alice suddenly realized it and patted her head in confusion:

"Strange..."

...

Velma was having dinner with Allen at home. Suddenly, Velma covered her lower abdomen with her hand, and a painful expression appeared on her face.

Alan instantly became nervous. He knew what was in Wilma's stomach. He walked forward and tried to support Wilma, but Wilma suddenly recovered as if nothing had happened.

"It's okay," Wilma smiled at Alan soothingly, "It was just the baby that kicked me."

Alan then forced a smile and sat back to eat restlessly.

The good news was that until they finished eating, Wilma didn't show any abnormality. It wasn't until dinner was over and he came out after washing the dishes that he heard Wilma's painful voice again:

"Ugh...

"It hurts..."

At this moment, Wilma was curled up on the sofa, her wrinkled features telling of great pain.

...

Absent-mindedly holding the ring box and returning to the hotel, Alice asked Klein to take good care of herself and not let herself eat anything. Then she sat on the bed and opened the ring box.

Alice lost the ability to think almost the moment she opened the box. She looked over absentmindedly. Inside the ring box was a milky white six-sided dice, just as she had seen in her dream.

The number on the dice was not 4 in the dream, but 6. The blood-red concave dots fell on the milky white dice, as if narrating some unknown omen. Story.

——For example, now.

The spirit was madly shouting about hunger. Alice used her only rationality to control herself from swallowing the ring box and reaching out to touch the dice.

The dice disappeared.

Suddenly, a huge fear enveloped Klein. His hair stood up, and every cell was shouting to escape, but his body stayed in place, unable to move, unable to even scream, and even forgot to breathe.

——This is the most instinctive reaction of life when facing fear beyond the limit of endurance.

He could only sit stiffly in the chair, watching Alice sitting there in a daze. Time seemed to have stopped suddenly. It was not until he felt suffocated that he saw Alice slowly raise her head, her eyes filled with confusion.

He heard the voice that he was very familiar with asked:

"Is this what it feels like to have a human body?

"I'm not used to it." (End of this chapter)
