Chapter 252 Bernadette's Outfit (Additional Chapter for Your Monthly Votes)
After finishing the business, Hobert and Klein said goodbye to each other like other gentlemen.
Continuing the tour, Hobert passed by the living area when he left. A woman with long chestnut hair and a very well-proportioned figure attracted Hobert's attention.
Her eyebrows were very distinctive, stretching all the way to the tip of her eyebrows, adding some majesty to her temperament, making her look very capable, like the leader of a large department.
In addition to her own beautiful appearance and outstanding temperament, her clothes were out of tune with the surroundings. She wore a pair of beige trousers that were easy to move, and a pair of long black leather boots. She wore a light brown knee-length skirt on her upper body, which was very different from the conservative dressing style of the Kingdom of Loen.
Even Xiou sighed that such a combination of trousers and leather boots should be very convenient for movement.
In Backlund, women with middle and upper incomes basically wear various skirts. The only relatively light clothing is the knight's suit that Xiou wears.
Hobert remembered that Xio had many similar knight costumes. It was not that she liked them so much, but only this kind of clothes was convenient to move in Backlund.
Ladies all felt that trousers were not ladylike enough, so there was no market for women's trousers in the whole of Loen.
The woman with outstanding temperament and dress seemed to feel the gaze of Hobert and others.
She only glanced at Hobert and others with her peripheral vision, and continued to look at the building blocks in the living area.
After leaving the exhibition hall, Hobert realized that it could not be "Huang Beibei"?
It was not that Hobert was slow to react, but in his concept, Bernadette was the daughter of "Huang Tao", and her "Uncle Zhou" was only about 24 or 25 years old even if he had a beard.
So in Hobert's subconscious, Bernadette should be about the same age as Donna, or even younger than Donna.
After all, Hobert is also an "uncle". He is only 23 years old this year. When he imagined Bernadette, he always thought she was about 20 years old.
When he saw the 27-8-year-old lady in the living area with a mature temperament, he didn't think of Bernadette at all.
But when he thought about it, with chestnut hair, a very well-proportioned body, and avant-garde and unique outfit, who else could it be but Bernadette?
"Hubert, we're leaving first!" Hugh, who stepped onto the public carriage, said to Hubert, who was obviously absent-minded.
Hubert came back to his senses: "See you tonight, oh, no, I have a social event tonight, so I don't need to prepare my dinner. See you tomorrow!"
Watching the public carriage leave, Hubert smiled and shook his head.
Even if he recognized Bernadette, he would probably be beaten up as a rogue if he approached her now.
Bernadette definitely has such strength.
Hubert thought about it, even if he racked his brains to successfully chat with Bernadette, it would be impossible to borrow the "Lamp God" immediately.
It's better to wait for a chance to interact with her naturally in the future, Hubert thought: lest Bernadette have a bad impression of him, which would affect the process of borrowing the "Lamp God" later.
After watching a memorial exhibition at noon, Hobert returned to the law firm to continue working in the afternoon.
At three or four o'clock, Hobert received a reply from Elizabeth, saying that she and Selina, as well as Melissa and Benson brothers and sisters, would come to Backlund together this weekend.
The letter did not mention anything else, so Hobert unfolded the letter and wrote a short reply. He basically said that he knew and asked Elizabeth to send him a telegram after buying the ticket so that he could pick up the car at the station.
After work, Hobert and Jessica took a carriage to her and Kelly's residence.
Kelly was packing her things in the studio. Jessica went to the restaurant to buy three simple meals. After the three of them finished eating, they found a rented carriage to go to the suburbs.
It was already dark on the way. When they arrived at the agreed abandoned workshop, a layer of mist had appeared in the cold air of early winter.
The other party had arrived first. As Kelly described, there were four of them, and they were all extraordinary people.
The four people looked at Hobert almost at the same time. Obviously, they didn't expect Kelly to bring other people.
The workshop was very empty, with some waste piled in the corner. There was only a table and an oil lamp in the middle. The four of them had already sat on the inner side.
Jessica, who was walking at the end, closed the door. Hobert and the other three sat on the side near the door. Hobert deliberately sat on the left side and gave the middle seat to Kelly.
"I didn't expect you to bring other people. This is against the rules." John, the leader of the other party, said.
In the carriage, Kelly introduced Hobert to the leader of the other party. His name was John, Sequence 7 was called Alex, and Kelly didn't know the names of the two Sequence 8s.
As for names like John and Alex, they sounded like pseudonyms.
"You have four people, and we only have two." Jessica explained for Kelly: "With one more person, we can feel more at ease."
"Okay." John, who was in his forties, tall and strong, said with a smile: "I hope this friend can keep it secret."
Only the dead can really keep secrets. No, in the mysterious world, the dead may not be able to keep secrets. You have to remember to deal with the body.
John had already made up his mind that whether Kelly was willing or not, he would make her a member of the organization today.
Kelly came to refuse to join their organization, so the conversation was deadlocked at the beginning.
John soon lost his patience. He sneered at Kelly and said, "You don't think that you have the confidence to reject us just because you found a pretty boy?"
Hobert finally said, "Theoretically, yes."
John smiled and shook his head, "Okay, okay, whatever you say."
He no longer concealed, "Kelly must join us today. As for the two of you, you can also join us. If you don't join, hehe~"
John had already done some research. Although Kelly has Sequence 6, she is not good at fighting, and Jessica is only Sequence 9.
As for the helpers they found, they are most likely Sequence 7, or at most Sequence 6.
Among wild Beyonders, it is difficult to find helpers of Sequence 6, of course, except for "craftsmen". After all, when they encounter difficulties, everyone wants to help. If they have a relationship, they can entrust "craftsmen" to make weapons for themselves in the future.
But even if this helper is Sequence 6, John is not afraid. They have four people and rich combat experience.
Even if they were not sure of killing this helper, they were sure of defeating or driving him away. By the time this helper found more helpers, they would have already left Backlund with Kelly.
Hobert asked, "Is there no room for negotiation?"
"No!" John said firmly.
Hobert smiled and said, "That's easy. I just happened to be short of money recently, and you guys came to my door. I want to thank you!"
Before John could say anything, he heard two "provocateurs" in Sequence 8 say to another Sequence 8, "Mary must be blind to fall for a fool like you. I want to rescue her from you!"
Another Sequence 8 was not to be outdone and said, "I wanted to dig out your eyes a long time ago. Do you think I didn't notice the disgusting look in your eyes when you faced Mary?"
For half a second, John wanted to scold his two subordinates. He didn't even look at the time. Aren't you afraid of being embarrassed for your little thing?
But then he reacted and quickly jumped off the table. The offensive of this "little white face" had already begun!
Everyone's monthly votes are very powerful, so the author's additional chapters must be equally powerful╰(*°▽°*)╯
In order to write this additional chapter, the author got up at around 6 o'clock in the morning. It feels good to write in the early morning, but I have to take a nap after lunch (*￣(エ)￣)
