Mystery: Lucky

"I'm looking at what you're looking at," Alice replied matter-of-factly.

Cattleya didn't know what to say, so the scene became quiet again. She wanted to start the topic several times, but when she turned her head and saw Alice's focused attitude, she gave up again.

It would be bad if it draws her attention away...

Thinking of Frank Lee, Cattleya thought it would be a good idea to let Alice stand in a daze for a while.

Alice was not a patient person. After staring intently at the unchanging sea surface for a few minutes, she began to feel bored. At this time, she suddenly remembered the "Key of Light" given to her as a birthday gift.

Alice guessed that she was probably very similar to him. Maybe she was influenced to be like him - obviously, maybe her own personality was very similar to him - the age of "Huanhuan" in her memory seemed to be only single digits.

But in any case, if she is really similar to him, it can be expected that the "Key of Light" probably doesn't like boredom very much.

What does He like?

Alice didn't know, but Alice was sure that she liked change and unpredictable changes.

If it were prey, she would prefer the one that she couldn't catch, the one that seemed to be infallible but suddenly broke free...

Perhaps, the "Key of Light" hopes that He will lose in his own game more than I do...

Maybe, He himself doesn’t know that He has such thoughts, because He is confident that He will not lose, just like me before...

——Alice must admit that although that birthday gift made her extremely angry, it did arouse her little fighting spirit.

Well, it was aroused.

But the absurd idea that just arose did not disappear with Alice's random thoughts. It took root in Alice's mind and began to grow like a weed.

"If that's the case..." She slightly curved her lips, "This is my chance."

Cattleya's hesitant eyes fell on Alice. She was debating whether she should say something to match Alice's performance. On the distant sea, a cluster of pirate ships gradually appeared.

Before Cattleya could react, Alice excitedly grabbed her loose robe, put her head towards her and asked:

"Are we going to fight?"

At that moment, the appearance of a worldly master disappeared completely.

Cattleya lowered her head subconsciously, and her eyes fell on Alice's hand holding her robe. After a pause, Alice retracted her hand, as fast as if she had done something wrong.

...?

Cattleya seriously began to consider the possibility of taking off her robe for inspection.

Alice looked at the window with a guilty conscience, and found that the pirate ships had fled to the surroundings as nimbly as swimming fish, avoiding the huge stone "Future".

Alice's mood was as sad as that of a fisherman who finally saw hope after waiting for a long time and then found that the school of fish was scattered by a stone falling from the sky.

But Alice soon noticed that the "Future" began to slow down for some reason. Alice turned her head in surprise and asked:

"Something happened?"

She was happy again.

"...No," Cattleya denied Alice's words, took out a pair of thick glasses and put them on, "There are ruins from the Fourth Age nearby. I plan to stop by and take a look."

With that said, she walked towards the door, opened it, and found Gehrman Sparrow who was about to knock on the door.

"Relics of the Fourth Age?" Alice stepped forward at this moment and asked, "Is it the giant deep-sea well?"

A giant well in the deep sea? Klein's doubtful gaze fell on Cattleya.

Cattleya nodded in reply to Alice, and then, while walking outside, she repeated what she had said to Alice.

Although he was not as excited as Alice, Klein was also curious about the giant deep-sea well. He followed their footsteps without further questioning.

They walked to the deck, where Frank Lee was waiting there. He was still wearing yesterday's clothes, with his sleeves rolled up, and Alice saw a little dirt on his arms with her sharp eyes.

"Good morning, Hermann!" Frank Lee greeted the two guests. "Good morning, Alice!"

Alice waved to him and was about to say something when she suddenly heard Klein coughing.

"Sick?" Frank Lee said enthusiastically, "You can wait a moment, I-"

His voice stopped suddenly, and he saw that Alice just reached out and patted Gehrman Sparrow, making the adventurer glow.

Frank Lee looked at Alice in surprise.

——Among the extraordinary abilities he knew, there was no one that could cure diseases so easily.

Alice didn't notice anything was wrong. She looked back in confusion and asked curiously: "What did you want to say just now?"

Frank Lee instantly forgot his doubts and said happily:

“I originally wanted him to wait.

"This way, after I show you this great invention, I can show you another invention - but it doesn't seem to be useful now."

Saying this, Frank Lee raised the other hand he was holding and spread out his palm. There was a fat and fat fish inside.

Alice suddenly remembered the scene she saw in the "Future" cafeteria, and she asked hesitantly:

"What did this fish get hybridized with?"

Klein took half a step closer to Alice, then thought about it and moved back.

Frank Lee didn't notice their weird attitude. He pulled out a dagger from his waist and stabbed the poor fish, saying excitedly:

"This is definitely the most popular thing on the sea!"

His dagger cut a hole in the fish, and blood flowed out of the fish's body and fell accurately into the large beer glass on the deck.

Alice realized that the blood didn't smell bloody. She smelled a scent of wine in the air, which seemed to be the smell of red wine.

...Huh?

It's a bit strange, but...

The spirit didn't alarm. Alice thought for a while, picked up the wine glass on the ground, and did something that no one expected - she drank a sip.

At worst, restart... Damn, it's red wine!

Alice opened her eyes in horror and found that everyone was looking at her.

"Ha!" Frank Lee seemed to be the only one who was happy at the scene, "You are really different from others! How is it? You are the first taster of the finished product, this is a fish with red wine as its blood!"

"Hmm..." Alice carefully tasted the wine aroma in her mouth, "I don't like drinking... Can you try sweet iced tea next time? No, forget it, it's far from good, maybe you can try grape juice..." (End of this chapter)
