Mystery: Higher-Dimensional Overlookers

Chapter 543: To the New World (4)

"It seems like a lot of things have happened. I can't even imagine what our family would have been like without you."

Benson listened to Klein's account of what he had experienced in the past few years and why Klein gave up the interview on the eve of the interview.

Only then did they realize that since that time, their brother had already experienced death quietly.

Melissa rubbed her eyes and finally managed to control her emotions. She said to the two Kleins in front of her:

“Klein, you…you all have worked so hard.”

Melissa didn't know how to express her thoughts. Moretti shook his head and said softly to his sister:

"On our journey, we have encountered pain and also gained something, but at least the ending is good, and we don't have to sit by someone else's grave and reminisce about the past."

"When I died because of the Antigonus family's notes, he came here and merged with the remaining part of my soul, and finally became completely one with me."

Moretti said with a sigh, "The moment I was resurrected, I became an angel. I haven't experienced much. And Klein... Zhou Mingrui, he was promoted slowly from Sequence Nine upwards."

Having said that, he changed the subject and said to Melissa in front of him in a different tone:

"In fact, I haven't been through as much as he has. Now everything is settled. If I remember correctly, Klein has also secretly married a beautiful lady."

Are you trying to change the subject? You don't want to talk about serious things, so you're shifting your focus to me? Zhou Mingrui opened his mouth, but he no longer felt uncomfortable.

But as expected, the next moment he saw Melissa turned her head and said to him:

"Really, Klein? Do you really have a lady you like now?"

Melissa's eyes sparkled as she spoke to Zhou Mingrui. Zhou Mingrui saw his sister like this and immediately found it difficult to refute her. He couldn't bear to disturb her excitement.

He could only smile helplessly: "Yes, I and a friend and comrade who fought side by side with me have decided to get married."

"Wow..." Melissa shouted in applause, her eyes gleaming with excitement, as if waiting for Zhou Mingrui's follow-up. Zhou Mingrui coughed:
"I came back this time for two purposes. The first is to reunite with you after a long time, and the other is to visit her parents formally and marry her in front of a few friends."

"That's great." Melissa looked at Zhou Mingrui in front of her for a few seconds, then slowly let out a long breath: "Who is the lady you like?"

"Audrey Hall." Zhou Mingrui smiled and said to his sister:
"Speaking of which, I'm going to visit other members of the Hall family in two days. Do you want to come with me?"

“Okay… But, Klein, that’s a big family, right? If we go there, will we be a little…” Melissa suddenly became worried.

Zhou Mingrui immediately laughed and said to Melissa in a humorous tone:
"In fact, Melissa, our family can now be called the 'Angel Family'. Think about it, 'Klein Moretti' is now a real angel walking on the earth. Those ordinary nobles are not nobler than you."

"Now I can even say that the Moretti family name is superior to all the Beyonder families on this continent."

——Except for real creators.

"Moreover, after we survive the apocalypse, the extraordinary power may decline. The next era will be the era of ordinary people, and now Loen has become a republic. Of course, the old nobles no longer exist."

Benson laughed at the side:

"You're right, Klein. After all, we are family. I think it's necessary for us to go with you in this matter. When are you going to go?"

"Probably in the next two days."

Zhou Mingrui said solemnly to Benson and Melissa, and he touched his chin:

"But after I go back tomorrow, I will contact my family in 'that world' and invite them to come here to attend my wedding."

The family members Zhou Mingrui mentioned were his parents on the old Earth. Melissa, who was sitting opposite Zhou Mingrui, showed some understanding on her face:
"Klein has already told me. Well, I understand. Are they your father and mother from that ancient era?"

Even though Moretti had spoken to both of them about what might have happened in the olden days, and now that they had rebuilt the Earth from the olden days.

But for them, even though they already possessed a gift equivalent to Sequence Seven, they still found this kind of thing a little hard to believe.

If they had not received a better education and had not had a deeper understanding of the universe and the gods, it would have been more difficult for them to accept these things.

Zhou Mingrui smiled: "Yes."

Benson thought for a moment and tapped the table in front of him:

"Perhaps we should go with you, too. At least let your parents know that their son has family on another Earth."

"Klein, no, Zhou Mingrui. I think we should call you by your real name."

"Although you appeared to us as Klein for a long time in the past, after knowing your identity in the past few days, I regarded you as a substitute for Klein for a while, but this still cannot change the fact that we are a family."

Can two people with the same memories and shared experiences be called the same person?

This is a philosophical question, but for Zhou Mingrui and Klein who have each other's souls, Benson is willing to believe that they are both his brothers.

At least, when Benson was thinking deeply all night, he also remembered the sincerity that Zhou Mingrui had given to his brother and sister after Klein's death. The same was true for Melissa, which was why Melissa and Benson didn't care about Zhou Mingrui's identity and regarded him as an important family member.

Melissa nodded her head to show that she agreed with what Benson said. Zhou Mingrui touched his chin:

"Then I will explain the existence of this world to my parents over there. As you know, there were no extraordinary beings in the old days. This is a concept that is a little difficult for them to understand."

“I’ll go with you then. Who knows how your mother will react when she sees her two sons standing in front of them.” Klein smiled and said to Zhou Mingrui.

Zhou Mingrui imagined the reactions of his two selves appearing at home, and sighed inexplicably: "Maybe it will be double the nagging..."

At this time, Melissa became inexplicably nervous: "So, Ke... Zhou Mingrui, do we need to prepare anything?"

"Maybe you need to prepare yourself the same way you would before going out. For example, put on some nice clothes and put on some makeup."

Zhou Mingrui smiled and replied to Melissa: "I will go back to that world tonight, and then pick you up tomorrow to set the date for the wedding."

Having said this, Zhou Mingrui paused for a moment, then looked at Klein beside him meaningfully.

Klein's heart skipped a beat and he wanted to stop him, but before he could say anything, he heard Zhou Mingrui speak.

Zhou Mingrui seemed to just mention it casually:
"Come to think of it, Klein doesn't seem to have any intention of getting married yet. Melissa, aren't you worried?"

Seeing Melissa looking at him, Klein’s heart skipped a beat. He quickly waved his hand: “Actually…”

He paused for a moment. He wanted to use Benson as an example, but when he thought about how Benson was already married and he was the only one in his family who was being urged to get married, he could only laugh helplessly.
"Okay, I'll try my best, but I think it'll be hard for me to meet a girl who can impress me..."

He looked at Zhou Mingrui, who had disappeared into the room after chatting, and sighed silently.

He didn't dare to urge Melissa to get married. He didn't want his sister to marry someone else so early.

……

Zhou Mingrui returned to the old Earth exhausted. Of course, before leaving, he specifically asked Audrey if she wanted to go back with him.

After getting the answer that Audrey wanted to stay with her parents for a while longer, Zhou Mingrui "opened the door" and came back alone.

It was already late at night when he returned. Zhou Mingrui walked towards home bathed in the night.

When Zhou Mingrui opened the door, he saw his father sitting in front of the door, looking at him with a serious face.

His heart skipped a beat, and then he smiled at his father, only to see his dad pat his thigh and ask Zhou Mingrui to sit next to him.

"I thought you weren't coming back tonight, Mingrui. I can see that you seem to be hiding something in your heart. Do you want to talk to your dad? Don't worry, I know you're afraid your mom will worry, so I didn't tell her. I'll be waiting for you here."

Seeing his father speaking to him earnestly, Zhou Mingrui suddenly had an idea and said to his father:
"Dad, do you know about time travel?"

Unexpectedly, Zhou's father squinted his eyes and said, "Don't change the subject here. Tell me what happened in detail. You suddenly resigned from the company. Is it related to Miss Audrey? Have you been wronged in the company?"

"That's not the case - but I'm serious about what I'm saying to you. Just wait and see."

Zhou Mingrui knew that it would be difficult to convince his father with words that he had been "away" for three years, so he closed his mouth and pressed his fingers on the teacup in front of his father.

As Zhou Mingrui touched the teapot, a little golden light suddenly began to spread outward from the place where Zhou Mingrui's fingertips touched the enamel teapot, turning the entire enamel teapot golden.

Zhou Mingrui "fooled" the rules and turned the cup into pure gold!

Zhou Mingrui raised his head and wanted to say something to his father in front of him, but his head was gently patted by his father:
"You rebellious son, what have you done? This thing is an old item..."

Father Zhou touched his enamel teacup with some distress, but when he weighed his treasure, he found that the teacup suddenly became much heavier - it was even difficult for Father Zhou to lift it with one hand. It seemed that it had really turned into a teacup made of gold!

"Hey... this isn't really magic?"

Father Zhou opened his mouth and bit the golden cup in his hand gently. After discovering that it seemed to be genuine gold, he suddenly showed some disbelief in his eyes and said to Zhou Mingrui:
"You bastard, tell me again what you just said?"

Zhou Mingrui explained his story about time travel with some helplessness. During his narration, Father Zhou's brows were furrowed.

"I really traveled through time..."

"That's right. I was wondering why you brought back such a pretty girl... So, you saved the world while traveling back in time? How come your experience is so similar to that of a protagonist in a novel? All the good things happened to you?"

This is what Zhou Mingrui said to his father.

"I guess so... Anyway, Dad, I'm getting married."

Zhou Mingrui said to his father seriously: "My family over there, my brother and sister, and another me, they will come to visit us tomorrow."

After hearing Zhou Mingrui's words, Zhou Mingrui's father took out a cigarette from the side and lit it with a slightly trembling right hand:

"Have you ever thought about how you will get your marriage certificate after you bring the girl from another world back? How will you register your household registration?"

"Zhou Mingrui, tell me the truth. You really didn't lie to me, did you?"

Zhou Mingrui thought for a moment: "Dad, this may not be a problem."

"Actually... in addition to saving the world once in that world, I can also influence the world here... at least, modifying the marriage certificate shouldn't be a problem."

Zhou Mingrui said to his father seriously. At this moment, the phone in Zhou Mingrui's pocket suddenly rang:
"Old Zhou! Help me!"

"If I don't explain myself clearly, my father will kick me out and arrest me on the spot!"

Ah? Zhou Mingrui was stunned for a moment. He looked at his father who was in deep thought, added a "secret" state to himself, then quietly moved away and returned to his room.

He picked up the phone and said to Huang Tao, who was speaking anxiously:
"So, what happened? Is it still because of the relationship between Bonois and Bernadette?"
-
In the living room, Zhou's father put down the heavy "filial piety" in his hand and was about to speak, but found that Zhou Mingrui had disappeared.

He cursed in a low voice:
"You bastard, you didn't even tell me about this big thing."
