Chapter 554
On the evening of Friday, Xifa returned to Tingen City using the "Traveler's History", first took the diary and returned it to Mr. Hardy, and then met with Carvin and Nefer in the evening, and made an appointment with them on Monday morning Meet at "Pritz Harbor Ticketing Company" in the White Rose area.
On Saturday morning, Xifa took the steam train to Backlund. There were a lot of passengers on this train, and they arrived in Backlund with countless hopeful people.
When we arrived at the station, the fog was thin and the sun was faintly visible.
The gas lamps hanging on the platform had already been extinguished, and the passengers coming and going formed a dense flow of people. Sifa held his wallet tightly with experience, and Levtor carried the suitcase, followed the crowd, and slowly walked out of the steam train station.
While waiting for a taxi on the street, Sifa suddenly moved aside, leaving a person who was looking into his pocket missing.
“It seems that there are more pickpockets”
Sifa put on his top hat, got into a rental carriage, and left this chaotic and complicated area.
When they came to Boklund Street, the number of pedestrians decreased significantly, and the number of carriages increased. Soon, Xifa saw the house rented by Byson.
He tipped the coachman 2 soules more, got off the carriage amidst the smiles and blessings of the other party, and walked into the gate.
As soon as he came to the hall, Xifa's eyes blurred, and he was already blocked by Harri Bell and Chaum, who was still holding Pasha, the baron's adopted daughter.
The little girl seemed to be forcibly pulled over by Qiao Mu, and she seemed a little at a loss, her little hands were nowhere to rest, and her eyes flickered.
Harribell crossed her waist and said, "Brother Xifa, where did you go to play without saying a word!"
This is Xingshi's questioning, and Xifa laughed dryly. On Monday, he just said hello to his mother. He originally thought that he would be back in a day or two, so he didn't tell his younger brothers and sisters that he would be away for a few days.
"I went to Tingen City, as you know, I stayed there for a while and made some friends there, so I wanted to visit them during the New Year's holiday." Fortunately, when Xifa came back, he had already made up his mind. made an excuse.
Heri Belle winked at Jom, and the little boy pulled Pasha forward, stretched out his hand and said, "What about the presents? Brother Xifa went to Tingen to play, and he will definitely bring us gifts, don't you think so?" Pasha"
Pasha said in a panic: "I, I don't want it."
Chaum said anxiously: "Have you forgotten what Belle said? Brother Xifa left us to go out to play by himself, and we want to settle accounts with him."
Holly Belle immediately rolled her eyes: "Jom, you little idiot, don't sell me too."
Xifa laughed: "Don't worry, I have already prepared your presents."
He stretched out his hand, and Lev Tol brought a paper bag over, and Sifa threw the paper bag to his younger siblings: "You can share the contents here."
After speaking, he took Levtor and left.
Chaum excitedly opened the paper bag, thinking it would be something fun, but when he saw it, it turned out to be Dixie pies one by one.
In the hall, the dissatisfied voices of the little devils suddenly sounded, and Sifa smiled. It was given to him by Mr. Hardy last night, and it was indeed a gift from Tingen City.
After lunch, Xifa was called to the study by Byson.
Since the trouble with Bison that night, Xifa didn't talk much to the baron, but today, Bison seemed to have forgotten what happened that day, his face was flushed and he was smiling.
"I have good news for you, child."
"I found an investment consultant for us. I want to hand over your bank account to the investment consultant. They promise that we can get up to 20% of the annual income."
"what do you think?"
Sifer narrowed his eyes slightly, and his intuition told him that the Baron did this to shrink his control over him. Fortunately, his large deposits were either placed in an unregistered account or kept in cash in the 'spiritual world treasure chest'.
His bank account contained only the annuity he had originally received as the son of the Baron, and the monthly salary that the Navy paid into his account.
Since Xifa joined the 'Black Sail' and was a second lieutenant in the camp, according to the salary of a lieutenant in the Kingdom of Loen, he can get a salary of 10 pounds per week. Coupled with the allowance from the special department, Xifa could have received 18 pounds a week.
Now promoted to major, his weekly salary and allowance have almost doubled, and now his weekly salary has risen to 30 pounds.
After a month, he can get 120 pounds, and his monthly income is more than 100 pounds. This is already considered a wealthy middle class in Ruen and Backlund.
"Father, I will leave my bank account to you." Xifa smiled slightly and did not refuse.
Bai Sen nodded with satisfaction: "I guarantee that when you come back, there will be an extra sum of money in the account."
"I am looking forward."
Leaving the study and returning to his own room, Xifa picked up the newspaper and flipped through it.
If the Extraordinary party in the 'Brave Bar' is held, the convener will advertise in the newspaper, which is the information obtained from the memory of that 'devil'.
Xifa wanted to see if there were Extraordinary gatherings in the past few days, but he didn't see the advertisement, but saw a 'missing person notice'.
The reason why he was attracted was because of a name.
"Ebrio?"
Cifer remembered the name, he had a dream. In the dream, he became another person, and there was a beautiful girl who called that person 'Ebrio'.
And now, someone is looking for Abrio!
"this"
Xifa pondered: "This is a coincidence. In mysticism, coincidence often means that there is a lot to it."
He closed the newspaper.
He wrote down the contact address in the missing person notice.
Saturday noon.
Hat Trick Hotel, 22 Hope Road, Jorwood District.
The waiter in charge of reception at the front desk had just had time to take a sip of water when he saw a lady coming in at the door. The lady has long, straight black hair and wears this year's most popular long dress with lots of lace and ruffles.
The lady with a pair of tinted glass glasses on her nose said with an exotic accent: "I want to visit Mr. Cato Chang El in Room 2012."
"Okay, according to the latest management law, we need to register the names of visitors, and please show your identification." The waiter said with a smile.
"Marilyn Monroe, as for the identity certificate, you have already seen it, haven't you?" The lady's voice suddenly became dark.
The waiter's eyes lost focus slightly, but quickly returned to normal: "Indeed, please follow me, ma'am."
Guided by the waiter to the stairs, the black-haired lady said in a voice that she could only hear: "What's the name Marilyn Monroe? When that guy gave me this name, I always felt that he was not pregnant kindness."
When passing by a window in the corridor, a strong gust of wind suddenly blew up the lady's skirt, and she quickly reached out to hold it down so as not to lose it all.
