Mystery: Lucky

When Klein finished "A Letter to Parents" and came to talk to Alice, Alice was holding a book called The Life and Lies of Russell Gustav and hesitating about where to start. Better.

"I didn't cause any trouble!" Above the gray fog, after learning of Klein's intention, Alice slapped the table and emphasized.

"I know." Klein reached out and pinched his eyebrows.

Edwina told him exactly how Alice behaved that day. To be honest, in terms of severity, it was not as bad as what he experienced when he played Admiral Amilius.

She has obviously restrained herself a lot.

I’m just not sure whether it will be temporarily restrained or whether it can be maintained forever...

With this in mind, Klein glanced at Alice and encouraged her: "You're doing well, keep up the good work!"

He didn't even expect Alice to improve.

Although she didn't hear the connotation of Klein's words, Alice subconsciously frowned at this sentence: "Why do I always feel like you are coaxing a child..."

"...Aren't you?" Klein asked somewhat puzzlingly.

Alice was lost in thought.

If the person speaking was Edwina, she would definitely emphasize that she has lived for thousands of years, but Klein... If Klein existed from before the First Epoch to today, in fact, he should be much older than her. Bar……

After staring at Klein and thinking seriously for more than ten seconds, she suddenly realized:

"Immortal."

"?" Klein stared at her.

Alice blinked innocently twice and ran away quickly - although permission was required to enter Source Castle, it was not required to escape.

Returning to the real world, the first thing Alice saw was the book The Life and Lies of Russell Gustave.

She immediately remembered her previous plan, picked up the book, and after thinking for a moment, she opened her mouth at the corner of the book.

…

Alice was awakened by a knock on the door. She opened the door sleepily and saw Edwina outside the door.

"Morning..." She greeted inarticulately, and then she fell towards Edwina as if she had no bones.

Edwina subconsciously stretched out her hand to support her. Although she understood how unrealistic this question was, she still couldn't help asking hesitantly: "You... didn't sleep well?"

"No," Alice shook her head, "I mainly don't want to get up."

As she spoke, she shook her head hard twice, her eyes quickly became clear, then she stood up straight and said seriously:

"As we all know, people are iron, food is steel, and beds are magnets."

After a pause, she seemed to remember something, and added fiercely:

"Don't say I'm not human!"

"...Okay." Edwina responded after a moment of silence.

Alice then became happy. She looked around and asked, "Shall we go have breakfast!"

"Yes." Edwina nodded calmly.

"Okay!" Alice cheered a little, and then looked at Edwina with an expectant look.

She quickly came to the restaurant under the guidance of Edwina and enjoyed a hearty breakfast.

After breakfast, it is the most difficult time of the day for the crew of the "Golden Dream".

At this time, Edwina will check the crew's mastery of yesterday's knowledge, using methods including but not limited to questions, homework, and exams.

The pirate ship has changed from a free ship to a prison on the sea. Alice secretly glanced at everyone's test papers and homework and found that the knowledge they learned was far more advanced than she thought.

Edwina seems to be really serious about teaching the crew about occult knowledge.

Of course, the most important thing is that Alice discovered that these homework and test papers were not unified, that is to say, everyone's learning progress was not exactly the same. Edwina was probably teaching in batches...

She is really good at being a teacher.

But this gives Alice an idea, for example - if everyone's progress is different, is it possible for her to get the test papers and answers for the next exam in advance...

Ah, speaking of which, can she divine the answer? Even anti-divination would be of no use to her...

Alice was lost in thought.

Before she could figure out the result, her morning study time was over. Because there was a bonfire party tonight, Edwina decided to give everyone a day off.

After hearing the news, everyone except Daniz looked at Alice with a mixture of emotion and joy, as if she was the benefactor of the entire ship.

Only Daniz's indignant voice stood out: "Don't all of you be deceived by her!"

The effect of these words is not strong. After all, until now, Alice's image on the "Golden Dream" is still a little girl with a bit of an eccentric personality. Although she seems to like pranks, but... isn't there Daniz? ?

Except for Edwina and Daniz, no one has yet realized how human-like Alice is.

Even except for Edwina, no one has yet discovered that Alice, who eats and sleeps on time, is actually an angel.

After discovering that Alice had adapted well to this atmosphere and had no intention of speaking out, Edwina did not intend to tell anyone else about it.

It's useless to say it anyway, it will only make everyone nervous.

Edwina shook her head and motioned for Alice, who was watching the excitement, to follow her.

Alice, who was thinking about cheating methods, didn't refute at all, and followed Edwina's pace with a guilty conscience.

"Have you read the book I gave you yesterday? How do you feel about it?" Edwina asked as she walked.

Alice did not seem to feel guilty about this question. She nodded habitually, and then found that Edwina did not look back at her, so she cleared her throat and said:

"I have read it.

"I read the life and lies of Russell Gustav. The content is very interesting, but some things... some things are too subjective.

"It shouldn't be true, right? It feels like some of the content is deliberately discrediting Russell. The author should not have a good impression of Russell... Well, actually this can be seen from the name.

"Then, the book tastes a bit sour, and a bit damp and moldy. It feels like it has been on the boat for a long time, and the taste is soft. Don't you usually take it out to dry it? "

Past experience has helped Alice change some of her outspoken habits. She did not say that she could read Russell's diary, nor did she add a statement such as "He didn't write that in his diary."

But she overlooked another key point.

Edwina stopped at the end of her words, turned back hesitantly, and asked with hesitation and confusion in her voice:

"Taste? Taste?" (End of this chapter)
