With the plan in place, Zhou Mingrui had a heart, and the fear, embarrassment and insecurity were huddled in the corner.

It was not until this time that he was in a mood to carefully examine the memory fragments left by Klein.

Zhou Mingrui habitually stood up, closed the pipe valve, watched the wall lamp slowly dim, until it went out, he sat down again, while unconsciously rubbing the brass wheel of the pistol, while holding the head side, dyed with red Quietly “aftertaste” in the dark, like the most dedicated audience in the cinema.

Perhaps influenced by the bullets, Klein's memory is like a broken glass, not only loses coherence, but also obviously lacks content in many places, such as where the exquisite revolver comes from, suicide or homicide, on the notebook The phrase "everyone will die, including me" means exactly what happened in the past two days before the incident.

Not only are these specific memories become fragmented, they are fragmented, and even the knowledge acquired is the same. In the current state, Zhou Mingrui believes that if Klein returns to university, he will not be able to do business, even if he actually leaves the campus. For a few days, and no relaxation for myself.

"After two days, I will attend an interview with the History Department of the University of Tingen..."

“The University of the Kingdom of Rou has a tradition of not directly staying in school... The instructor gave a copy of the University of Timing, a letter of recommendation from the University of Beckland...”

......

Zhou Mingrui silently "watched", the red moon outside the window slanted, gradually sinking, until the east has a shimmer, the horizon is stained with gold.

At this time, the room inside was moving and moving, and soon, the footsteps leaned against the isolation door.

"Melissa woke up... she was as punctual as ever." Zhou Mingrui smiled slightly, and influenced by Klein's memory, she felt that she had a feeling of seeing her own sister.

However, I didn't have a sister... he immediately spit.

Melissa is different from Benson and Klein. The enlightenment education was not completed at the Sunday School of the Goddess Church. When she was studying, the Kingdom of Lun enacted the Primary Education Act and established the Low and Middle Education Committee. And specifically provided funding and increased investment.

However, in the three years, under the premise of incorporating many church schools, many public primary schools have been established, strictly maintaining the principle of religious neutrality, and not involving the storm master, the goddess of the night and the church of steam and mechanical gods.

Compared with the Sunday school with only one copper penny a week, the public primary school’s three pennies per week seems to be quite expensive, but the former only learns one day a week on Sunday, while the latter has a full six days a week. Look, the price is almost free.

Unlike most girls, Melissa likes gears, clockwork, bearings, etc., and is determined to be a steam mechanic.

The elder brother Benson, who has suffered from cultural losses and understands the importance of education, supports the dream of his sister just as he supports Klein. After all, the Tingen technical school can only be regarded as a secondary education, and there is no need for a law school or a public school. Do accumulation.

In July last year, the 15-year-old Melissa passed the entrance exam and became a member of the Steam and Mechanical Department of the Tingen Technical School. The weekly tuition fee was raised to nine pence.

At the same time, the import and export company that Benson worked for was affected by the situation in the South China. Both the profit and the business volume were greatly reduced. More than one-third of the employees had to be laid off. In order to keep the job and maintain life, Banson only Can accept more arduous tasks, must work overtime, or go to a bad place to travel, just like these days.

Klein didn't think about helping his brother, but he was born by a civilian, and he was admitted to the ordinary grammar school. When he entered the university, he felt strongly about his own shortcomings, such as Guvsak, the source language of all countries in the North. For the children of the nobles, for the children of the rich class, it was the content that had to be learned since childhood, and he did not come to the university for the first time.

There are many similar aspects. Klein has almost exhausted all his strengths. He often stays up late and gets up early, barely catches up with others and graduates with a medium grade.

The memory of the elder brother and sister jumped in Zhou Mingrui's mind, and the handle turned, and the door of the room opened. He woke up and remembered that he was holding a revolver in his palm.

This is a semi-regulated item!

Will scare children!

Also, there is a wound on my head!

Seeing that Melissa was about to come out, Zhou Mingrui, while holding the temple, hurriedly opened the desk drawer and threw the revolver into it, making a bang.

"What happened?" Melissa heard the movement and looked over in confusion.

She is at the most youthful stage, even if she can't eat anything good, her face is thin, slightly pale, and her skin is still full of luster, exuding the girl's breath.

Seeing the sister's brown eyelids, Wang Mingrui made a calm, picked up the things near his hand, and then closed the drawers to cover the existence of the revolver. The touch of the other hand in the temple allowed him to determine the wound. Has healed!

He took out a silver-white pocket watch with vine leaves and leaves from the drawer. The top of the lid was lightly pressed and the lid popped open.

It is the father of the three brothers and sisters, the most valuable item left by the Royal Army sergeant, but second-hand goods are second-hand goods after all. In recent years, problems have arisen from time to time, even if it is repaired by watchmakers, it is the same. Banson, who raised his identity, repeatedly went out and was simply left at home.

I have to say that Melissa may have a mechanical talent. After mastering the theoretical knowledge, she began to use the tools of the technical school to slap the pocket watch. Recently, she claimed to fix it!

Zhou Mingrui looked at the cover and bounced open, saw the second hand pause, and subconsciously turned the top, intending to wind the pocket watch.

However, he twisted a few laps, but the sound of the clockwork was not heard, and the second hand remained motionless.

"It seems to be broken again." He looked at his sister without saying anything.

Melissa glanced at him without expression, and quickly came over and took the pocket watch.

She stood in the same place, first pulled up the button at the top of the pocket watch, and only turned a few laps, then a stunned second hand walked out.

Normally, shouldn't it be time to adjust? Zhou Mingrui's expression suddenly becomes sluggish.

It was at this time that the bells of the cathedral in the distance came from the Dangdang, six times in a row, long and ethereal.

After Melissa listened to her ears, she pulled up the button at the top of the pocket watch and then twisted it continuously. It was a good time.

"Okay." She said shortly without a little emotion, then pressed back to the top and returned the pocket watch to Zhou Mingrui.

Zhou Mingrui smiled back and politely.

Melissa took a deep look at her brother, turned to the cabinet, took a toothbrush, towel, etc., and pulled out the door to the public bathroom.

"How did her expression just have a sense of disappointment and helplessness."

"Caring for the eyes of my mentally retarded brother?"

Zhou Mingrui shook his head and smiled. He slammed the cover and slammed it.

Repeating such an action, he thought of a problem in a divergent way.

Without a silencer, Klein committed suicide. Well, suicide for the time being. His suicide was absolutely not small. Melissa, who was separated by a wall, was not aware of it.

Is she sleeping too well? Or is it that Klein’s suicide is full of surprises?

Hey, open, squat, close... Melissa washes back and sees the unconscious movement of the brother who keeps opening and closing the lid of the pocket watch.

Her gaze was once again mixed with helplessness, and her voice said sweetly:

"Klein, you take out the rest of the bread, remember to buy new ones today, and meat and peas, you are going to the interview, I will give you pea stewed lamb."

During the conversation, she moved the stove out of the corner and cooked a pot of hot water by burning charcoal.

Before the water opened, she opened the bottom drawer of the cabinet, and took out a can of inferior tea, and sprinkled a dozen pieces into the pot, pretending that it was real tea.

One person fell two cups, Melissa and Zhou Mingrui shared tea with two rye breads.

There is no mixed wood chips, not too much gluten, but it is still not good... Zhou Mingrui is now weak, hungry, relying on tea, and forcibly swallowing the bread.

After a few minutes, Melissa finished, and gathered the black hair hanging down to the vest, looking at Zhou Mingrui:

"Remember to buy new bread, as long as eight pounds, the weather is hot, too much is easy to break, and lamb and peas, remember!"

Sure enough, care for the nerdy brother, but also stressed it again... Zhou Mingrui smiled and nodded:

"Ok."

On the pound of the kingdom of Lun, according to Klein's meat-measured memory and his own comparison, Zhou Mingrui thinks that it is close to the pound of its own habit, which is 0.5 kilograms.

Melissa didn't say much more. She got up and packed up. She packed the last piece of bread for lunch, put on the worn-out gown hat left by her mother, and picked up her own stuffed book stationery bag, ready to go out.

Today is not Sunday, she has to take a full day class.

It takes about 50 minutes to walk from this apartment to the Tingen Technical School. There is a public carriage, one kilometer and one penny. The city has a ceiling of 4 pence and 6 pence in the suburbs. Melissa goes out in advance to save money. .

Just opened the door, she paused and turned to the body:

"Klein, lamb and peas don't buy much, and Banson may have to come back on Sunday, um, remember that the bread is only eight pounds."

"Good, good." Zhou Mingrui had no choice but to answer.

At the same time, he meditation on the word "Sunday" several times.

In the Northern Continent, the year is also divided into twelve months, ranging from 365 days to 366 days per year, and seven days a week.

The front is the result of astronomy, which makes Zhou Mingrui suspect that this is a parallel world, while the latter comes from religion, because the orthodox gods of the northern continent have seven: the eternal sun, the master of the storm, the **** of knowledge and wisdom, the goddess of the night, the earth Goddess of Goddess, God of War, steam and machinery.

Watching her sister close and leave, Zhou Mingrui sighed and quickly moved his mind to the transshipment ceremony.

Sorry, I really want to go home...
