Chapter 415 Surprise and Worry
Melissa and Freya walked along the stairs to the second floor. After arriving at the ballroom and looking around, the latter easily found the location of Eitris's mother, Mrs. Farthing, and smiled at each other. Go.
The former was surprised to find that her brother Benson was chatting with a beautiful lady.
This is quite an incredible thing... You know, Melissa had a lot of headaches for Benson's marriage. She hinted her brother more than once to hang out with the neighbor, Viscount Abner Bryan, so that he could learn from that person. The "romantic detective" learns how to interact with girls.
Unfortunately, Benson seemed to have misunderstood, and instead persuaded her to go less often next door... which made her sulky for a while.
But now, what did she see? Her brother actually got enlightened?
Melissa couldn't help but smile "gratified".
At this time, Benson also spotted Melissa with his peripheral vision, so he called her closer and introduced the lady with whom he was chatting happily: "Ruth, this is my sister Melissa."
After saying that, he turned to Melissa and said, "This is Miss Ruth Brooke. She is my... um, colleague and good friend."
It seems that it is right for you to have more contact with Abner Brain. Look, isn't this a "good friend"? Feeling inexplicably excited, Melissa greeted the other party very politely on the surface.
Ms. Ruth returned the favor with a smile, and then after chatting with their siblings for a few more words, she returned to her parents.
Seeing Benson's eyes still following his retreating figure, Melissa couldn't help coughing and said: "Benson, will this Miss Ruth be my sister-in-law in the future?"
"Yes..." Benson replied subconsciously before reacting. Then he carefully observed Ruth in the distance for a few times. After confirming that she had not heard, he finally breathed a sigh of relief and turned back to face his sister's burning eyes. He hesitated and said, "Melissa, I'm still working hard."
"Then do you know her family situation, her criteria for choosing a mate, her personal preferences, her values... Of course, the most important thing is, does she have feelings for you?" Melissa thought about Wall. The lady continued to ask about the content of her love story.
"This..." Benson was speechless after being asked, because apart from knowing something about Ruth's family situation, he didn't know much about anything else.
Seeing this, Melissa shook her head helplessly and whispered: "Benson, I once again suggest that you go and learn from our neighbor Viscount Abner Brain... If you can learn one-tenth of his skills, Maybe you can successfully catch Miss Ruth."
Benson smiled bitterly. He wanted to learn, but he was now a viscount and rarely held banquets and dances. How could he have the nerve to always visit her?
Besides, it’s too late to study temporarily, right?
Melissa also guessed a little bit about her brother's troubles, so she decided to use extraordinary items to enter the lady's dream tonight and inquire about it, so as to help her stupid brother.
——Although the "Nightmare Badge" that Klein sent her has expired, her brother's colleague, "Nighthawk" Leonard, later gave her a similar item, but it has a limit on the number of times it can be used.
…
October 1st, Saturday morning.
When Melissa compiled the results of last night's dream exploration into a booklet and handed it to Benson, the airship finally arrived at the destination of the trip, the "Film and Television City" Beldan, after a night's flight.
From a distance, you can see a row of huge white letters on the top of a high mountain in the western suburbs of the city, which together form the Loen word "Beldan".
Next, there are theme parks in the city. Various buildings and many man-made wonders also came into view one by one on the airship, causing waves of exclamations.
At this moment, Melissa Benson did not discuss Miss Ruth anymore, but was enjoying the breakfast provided by the airship while admiring the fairy tale world-like Beldan City below through the porthole.
"Daisy, look! That's the 'Ghost Castle' you filled in in the 'Dream' column of the questionnaire, right? Wow! Viscount Braine actually brought it to reality!"
"Yes, Freya... Look, that's the Great Pyramid of Kru on the Southern Continent that you filled in... It's also been moved here!"
Listening to the exclamations of the sisters at the next table, Benson also smiled and pointed to a robot statue about ten meters high, and said to his sister: "Is that the 'Optimus Prime' you want to see? I didn't expect Emperor Russell The main character in the story was also moved to Beldan.”
"Yes... but it's a little different from what I imagined..." Melissa frowned as she looked at it, "Where is its boiler? Isn't there a chimney designed? Although Rosselli said it uses It is an energy block, but after it transforms into a vehicle, how can it run without a steam engine?
"But Viscount Abner Brain will definitely not make such an obvious mistake... Is that something I overlooked?"
Um...Melissa, I don't understand what you're talking about... Benson closed his mouth and did not disturb Melissa who was deep in thought. He turned to open the small book about Miss Ruth's hobbies that his sister had given him before. The booklet was studied carefully.
It is said that Melissa found out this from many people last night, but she doesn’t know whether it is accurate or not.
…
At the same time, on the platform of the Beldan City train station, Xio helped a middle-aged lady who looked to be about forty years old to step out of the carriage, followed by a handsome young man.
The middle-aged lady looked similar to Xio, but her face was much more mature and haggard, and her temples were even stained with some white silk.
The young man wore narrow-rimmed glasses and had short, slightly fluffy hair similar to Xio's.
They are Hugh's mother, Mrs. Carly, and brother, Lo Dilcha.
"Hugh, after we come to Beldan, will we not be hunted again?" Mrs. Carly asked again as she walked carefully on the platform.
"Of course, this is Abner's fiefdom. It's very safe. You don't have to worry at all." Xio explained patiently.
Listening to her daughter's proud tone when talking about Viscount Bertin, Mrs. Carly couldn't help but sigh deeply.
In her opinion, the reason why the viscount was willing to protect their family must be because his daughter paid an unimaginable price. She did not believe Xio's statement that it was because they were friends.
Friends... Her husband had many friends at the time, but none of them were willing to accept their family... From this point of view, this "Viscount Bertin" is a person who values friendship... but his reputation is not very good.
Xio didn't care what her mother was thinking. She first took the two of them for a good tour of Beldan City, and then arrived at the Viscount's Mansion before lunch.
And when she saw a group of witch maids coming out of the mansion, Mrs. Carly began to worry about her daughter again.
Because no matter how you look at it, the appearance of this team of maids is no worse than that of my daughter, but their figure is better than hers, and they intuitively know that none of them are simple goods.
