Chapter 154 Preparations Before Leaving

After thinking about it for a while, Klein, who already had a corresponding plan, sorted out his thoughts smoothly, and determined the next few things to do.

Snapped! He shook the letter paper with his right hand, and in the rising crimson flame, he looked up at Reinette Tinekerr opposite, and was about to take out a Loen gold coin from his pocket to pay for the postage.

However, Miss Messenger has already left, and there is no "person" opposite him.

"No more money?" Klein was taken aback for a moment, and then had various associations, wondering if Reinette Tinekerr, who habitually took gold coins from non-contractors, took the initiative to ask for postage.

Maybe Miss Messenger didn't say anything, just looked at Leonard with four heads and eight eyes at the same time, waiting for him to pay the gold coins, but this guy couldn't comprehend at all, and tried to forcefully end the summoning, but was pinched and broke his neck... Ke Ryan hissed, and took advantage of the opportunity to do a divination with the gold coin he just took out, and got the result that Leonard Mitchell was alive and well.

He breathed a sigh of relief, put away the gold coins, and shouted to the door:

"Richardson."

The door of the half-open room opened back without any movement, and his valet Richardson walked in quickly and asked respectfully:

"Sir, is there anything I can do for you?"

"Mr. Housekeeper, please come over here." Klein ordered and sighed in his heart. He was really corrupted by the extravagant life. Even if he was looking for someone at home, he would not move half a step, and he would do it through the personal servant.

Well, this is the need for acting... he said silently to himself.

After a few minutes, Walter, wearing white gloves, went up to the third floor, naturally lowered his arms, and stood in front of Dwayne Dantès with a standard posture, waiting for his employer to speak.

Klein had already considered his language, and said slowly:

"Go to Congressman Macht's house and tell him that I have prepared the upfront payment.

"Also, prepare the carriage, I'm going to the 'Charity Scholarship Fund' in the morning and return at noon.

"If Congressman Macht doesn't let me set aside time in the afternoon, then you go to Dr. Alan Kress's house again and say that I will make a visit in the afternoon."

Klein had already withdrawn 10,000 pounds in cash from above the gray fog, put it into a small suitcase, and was waiting for the right time to complete the preliminary work of the arms deal.

And in order to disperse the smell of gray fog on the banknotes, he deliberately "teleported" to the sea to feed "squirming hunger" - he was afraid that Amon, who knew the existence of gray fog, would be able to "smell" in the same city. "Exude that specific taste, or use it to sense where the desired treasure is.

"Okay, sir." The housekeeper Walter didn't ask where the employer raised the upfront money. In his impression, Dawn Dantès had hardly been to the bank during this period.

Of course, this is not a matter of too much concern. Many rich men who came to Backlund from other places, especially from Disi Bay and Jianhai County, would always prepare a large amount of cash in a box in advance.

…………

No. 22 Pacefield Street, the headquarters of the "Luen Charity and Student Fund".

Klein passed the gate, entered inside, went up to the second floor, and found the reception room provided for the directors.

——As an honorary director who only occasionally participates in certain affairs, he does not have an office here, but he can use the reception room.

He clenched his right hand into a fist, pressed it against his mouth, coughed twice on purpose, then walked into the reception room, found a sofa and sat down.

After waiting for a while, he stood up again, and said to Richardson, the personal servant standing beside him:

"I'm going to the bathroom."

After buttoning up his clothes, Klein stepped out of the reception room, just in time to see Audrey the Justice coming out of his office.

The skirt this noble lady is wearing today is relatively simple, with a white base and dark green embellishments. The cuffs and collar are mainly ruffles, and there are bow-tie flowers interlaced with layers of lace on the chest.

She didn't even wear jewelry, and she wore a belt that couldn't be seen to be good or bad. It was only on the left arm. When the wind blew, the clothes bulged slightly when they were attached to the skin.

"Good morning, Miss Audrey." Klein made an expression of surprise when he met him by chance.

Audrey looked at Dawn Dantès, who was in good shape with gray sideburns, and responded with a slight smile:

"Good morning, Monsieur Dantès."

She wanted to say "Long time no see" briskly, to make fun of the fact that the other party hadn't come to the Charity Fund for a few days since the establishment ceremony, but considering that the superficial relationship between the two could only be regarded as acquaintances, He forcibly held back the corresponding words.

Klein rubbed his forehead, smiled wryly and shook his head, saying:

"Sorry I didn't come here until today.

"I've been really busy recently. It is foreseeable that I will be even busier next time. I may have to go to the Southern Continent to deal with certain things."

The reason why he made a special trip to tell Miss Justice that he was going to leave Backlund for a period of time was to show his sincerity, and hoped that this noble girl could help keep the Foundation in check and make it run normally—for Klein He said that he sincerely hoped that this "charity student fund" could help more poor people in need.

"Going to the Southern Continent?" Audrey understood the sincerity of Dwayne Dantès, and asked back in a little astonishment.

Klein smiled and said:

"For a business."

At this moment, the first thought that came to Audrey's mind was: Which Sequence 5 is going to lose his life?

Sensing that Miss Justice seemed to have made a bad association, Klein added another sentence:

"There is cooperation with the military to sell some necessities."

What's the point? Is the identity of Dwayne Dantès used to spy on military intelligence? Audrey was taken aback, raised her right hand, tapped four times clockwise, and said with a clear smile:

"May the Goddess bless you all the best."

After habitually saying this sentence, she noticed the incongruity, and she actually said to a benefactor of Mister Fool, may the goddess bless him!

This is probably closer to a curse... Will Mr. Gehrman Sparrow be angry? No, he is actually a gentle person at heart, and I didn't harbor any malice just now... This time I went to the Southern Continent and came back again, the one who plays Dawn Dantès should be another favored person, right? Could it be a demigod? Audrey's thoughts spread unconsciously.

Klein smiled helplessly, and also skillfully drew the crimson moon on his chest:

"May the Goddess bless us."

Instead of sending down divine punishment... he added silently in his heart.

Then, he chatted as if he really just met on the road:

"Did you go to school to promote it during this time?"

"Yes." When it came to this matter, Audrey's face seemed to be glowing, and she was proud and happy that she had finally done something practical.

After she nodded slightly but slightly, her emerald green eyes gradually revealed a look of pity:

"I went to several public elementary schools, and many of the children there were really pitiful. In order to save money, they brought their own black bread for lunch and a glass of water."

Speaking of this, she looked up at Dwayne Dantès, and said with a little embarrassment:

"I know they won't take me to night school and Sunday school for a while, and I won't see anything worse.

"But I can imagine, I can imagine, like those workers who enter the factory and can only live for a few years..."

This was something that "The World" Gehrman Sparrow once told her, which made her know the real situation at the bottom of Backlund for the first time, but things that she hadn't seen with her own eyes still had to rely on imagination.

Klein sighed silently:

"Probably worse than you think.

"Don't worry, when you show your ability, the ability worthy of their trust, you can truly become one of them."

"Yes." Audrey nodded, as if she was already thinking about how to behave better.

Klein didn't talk any more. After all, this was only the third time the two had met, and they had only spoken a few words before. Now they talked too much at once, and it was easy to be suspected.

He pointed in the direction of the bathroom, apologized, and walked over.

Audrey looked at Dawn Dantès' back, was silent for a few seconds, and whispered spontaneously:

"What would be worse..."

…………

After receiving a reply from Councilor Macht inviting him to the "East Balam Veterans Club" in the evening, Klein followed the scheduled plan and visited Dr. Alan Kress at 4 pm.

"Mr. Dantès, your housekeeper didn't tell me what's going on with you." Because his wife was only a month away from giving birth, Dr. Allen recently put down a lot of work and always stayed at home.

He was quite puzzled about the sudden visit of Dawn Dantès, who was not very familiar with him, and he was not very sociable, so he asked the question directly after exchanging pleasantries.

Klein smiled and said:

"It's like this, I may have to go to the Southern Continent next, you know, the weather there is hot and humid, there are all kinds of bugs and diseases, I want to prepare some medicines in advance to prevent accidents, I don't know you Do you have any suggestions? I am really ashamed, you are the only excellent doctor I know."

Dr. Allen accepted his explanation, began to think seriously and gave the name of the drug.

In the end, Klein, who had written a note full of notes, found a reason for his stomachache and entered the bathroom on the first floor.

The washing mirror there suddenly became darker, as if it had been completely covered by a thick shadow, and in the shadow, a black baby carriage slowly approached, and a fuzzy child wrapped in silver silk lay inside.

"What's the matter this time?" Will Auceptin asked in a clear voice.

Klein coughed dryly twice, smiled and said:

"You should have heard that I am going to the Southern Continent.

"I don't want to miss your birth, so I would like to ask when do you plan to celebrate your birthday?"

Will Auceptin sucked his thumb and said:

"I have no idea."

"Even angels can't control when they will be born?" Klein asked in a little astonishment.

Will Auceptin replied hesitantly:

"You don't understand... I've been optimistic about three birthdays. They all have unique meanings in destiny, but I haven't confirmed them yet, and I still see them vaguely. Maybe when that time comes, I will suddenly understand what to do. "

This is a difficult choice, and it also has a strong temperament of a magic stick... Klein clasped his hands, rubbed them invisibly and said:

"Then how should I know in time, and come back in time to complete the deal with you? Uh, that Thousand Paper Crane is no longer available."

PS: Ask for a monthly pass on the last day of June~
