Mystery: Lucky

"I know," Bernadette replied, and then, as if she remembered something, she asked, "Can you read his diary?"

"I can read it," Alice said softly, "well, not necessarily all of us, but at least quite a few of us should be able to read it, I mean, if there are really many of us like us."

"Have you seen other 'people like you'? Are those symbols used to communicate?" Bernadette asked immediately.

"I have seen them," Alice nodded, "that... that is not a symbol."

"Not a symbol?" Bernadette repeated with a frown.

"That is a kind of writing," Alice looked at Bernadette's shrinking pupils and said softly, "It is a kind of writing that has evolved for thousands of years and has become a system. It is... the mother tongue of some of us."

"Mother, language?" Bernadette's voice became dry, and she stared at Alice intently, asking word by word.

"We... come from a civilization that no longer exists in this era," Alice said softly, "His inventions, his poems and novels, most of his famous quotes... and many other things, all of these are the legacy of that civilization."

Alice looked at Bernadette, whose shrunken pupils contained complex emotions, the most obvious of which was shock.

Bernadette was indeed very shocked.

If every word the girl said was true, she could almost imagine the glory of that civilization-only the fertile soil of food, clothing and peace could develop enough technology and art.

And, and, it sounds like that civilization has more than one language, that is, more than one country...

But...rather than considering whether to believe that the father in her memory is actually a shameful copyright thief, Bernadette is more concerned about another thing: "But he is obviously an Intis!"

-Emperor Roselle, who was born in the Gustav family of Intis, has obvious traces of growth throughout his life, and everything can be traced, and there is no trace of a civilization that has disappeared.

"But I'm obviously from Loen, too." Alice replied calmly.

Bernadette was stunned.

"I don't know why we are here, and I don't know how we got here," Alice looked at her and said, "If you want to ask this, you can give up, because my companions and I are also looking for answers."

"Who is your companion?" Bernadette finally noticed this thing she had overlooked.

"...The Fool." Alice paused for a moment and decided to report this more high-profile identity - after all, it would be too immoral to expose Klein, who was just Sequence 7!

"The Fool?" Bernadette repeated the word in confusion.

"If you are curious, you can pray to Him." Alice blinked.

"He?" Bernadette repeated the word with an inexplicable look.

"There is not only Him, but He is the only one who can tell you." Alice shrugged.

Bernadette, who didn't have the habit of praying to a great being she had never heard of like Alice, changed the subject without hesitation: "I want to know what's written in his diary."

Alice looked at Bernadette with hesitation, thinking that Emperor Roselle might not want his daughter to know about this.

"Any questions?" Bernadette frowned at Alice's expression.

"You know... there are some things in private diaries that you don't want others to see, right?" Alice looked at Bernadette and said.

"..."Bernadette obviously accepted this statement, and she asked, "Then do you know he... is he still alive? Why did he do those things in the end? He..."

"Wait," Alice had to reach out to interrupt the other party's question, "I think it's necessary to remind you of something."

"What is it?" Bernadette stopped asking questions.

"My current body is probably only 15 or 16 years old this year, and I'm definitely not an adult." Alice held her forehead and reminded the other party of her actual age helplessly.

Bernadette, realizing that she was too impatient, calmed down a little. She thought about it and decided to ask a question that Alice must know: "Then... can you tell me about the civilization you mentioned?"

"That civilization..." Alice's expression softened, "It is a civilization without extraordinary beings."

"No extraordinary beings?" Bernadette repeated, looking at Alice suspiciously and asked, "Could it be that you don't know that there are extraordinary powers?"

"Absolutely impossible," Alice said firmly, "In that civilization, there is absolutely no unknown extraordinary being."

"Why are you so sure?" Bernadette looked at Alice with a firm tone and asked puzzledly.

Alice was not surprised by Bernadette's suspicion. After all, people who have never seen the Internet cannot imagine such a society. She explained: "If something happens in Loen, it will spread throughout Loen within a few minutes, and even to Intis, Lunburg and other places... In such a civilization, do you think there may be hidden extraordinary beings?"

"How is that possible!" Bernadette immediately showed an incredible expression.

"So, explaining the 'Internet' to someone who has only seen the telegraph is really a hassle..." Alice showed a distressed expression.

'Internet'? What is that? From what she meant, it seemed to be a communication tool... Bernadette keenly perceived the core of the whole thing and hurriedly asked: "What is 'internet'?"

"... Let's start from the beginning." Alice showed a very painful expression.

Bernadette began to listen carefully.

Alice pinched her eyebrows and put forward her final bottom line: "Okay, first of all, I won't use word formation to turn these nouns into Loenese. I will say it in my native language. Is that okay?"

Bernadette nodded.

Alice pondered and began to introduce the changes in communication:

"Okay, let's start with the telegraph... The next stage of this inconvenient communication tool is the 'telephone'.

"The 'telephone' was first installed in every household. Each 'telephone' has a corresponding number... Probably something like a number? In short, people can connect two different 'telephones' by entering a number and communicate.

"The next stage of the telephone is the 'mobile phone'. The first 'mobile phone' was just a 'phone' that you can carry with you.

"Later, the 'mobile phone' had many new functions, such as taking pictures, and for example, the 'mobile phone' can connect to the 'Internet'.

"The 'Internet'... introduce it in a language you can understand. It is similar to a large platform. Everyone can pass on their own photos, daily thoughts, etc. to others, even if..."

Alice's voice suddenly stopped, and even Bernadette became stiff. They held their breath and stopped talking.

A pair of eyelashless, dark eyes appeared in front of them, staring at them without emotion.
