Personality V: I will save everything
Chapter 659: Big misunderstanding.
Jack was always troubled by the last smile of the manor owner, and always felt that there was some unknown malice hidden in it. As expected, as time went by, the facts gradually proved how accurate his intuition was.
Looking back, when the manor owner introduced the next world to them, he said: "Oh, the next world... Karl has been very busy lately, and I don't think there's anything particularly important to do. You might as well just treat it as a vacation. (^_^)"
However, it was these seemingly lighthearted words and the faint smile on the manor owner's face that made Jack suspicious. If it weren't for that strange smile, Jack might have trusted the manor owner's words a little more.
.................................................. ........................
If the above only made Jack feel a little bit suspicious, then what happened next really left him speechless.
Including himself, there were three people who came to the New World: Jack, Joseph, and Claude.
By the way, it is unexpected that after growing up, Claude has unexpectedly chosen Joseph's current appearance and age as his own appearance.
Joseph also cooperated with him and dyed his hair golden.
This means that if both of them let their hair hang naturally and Joseph covered his right eye, then from the outside it would be like looking in a mirror, and it would be impossible to tell who was who.
Even more frustrating, Jack couldn't help but wonder: Why was he supposed to be hanging around like a lackey while the two brothers played? Was one of them still a child? Standing there, he felt like an extra third wheel. It was so awkward!
Jack even began to seriously suspect that the two of them called him over just to ask him to help carry the bags.
This is definitely not an exaggeration or scare tactic. Just look at the piles of bags on Jack's body and you will know that what he said is true.
At this moment, Jack seriously suspected that in the eyes of passers-by, he was no longer a living person, but a pile of shopping bags that could move by themselves.
However, having said that, Jack didn't actually have many complaints about helping them carry their things.
After all, these things were all carefully planned by Joseph in advance, and they were all gifts that he would bring back to the manor and give to other people.
In order to buy these things, Joseph started planning three days in advance.
This was because he had heard from the owner of the manor that the level of technology in this world was slightly more advanced than where they were.
So, Joseph thought about bringing back some more interesting things so that everyone could broaden their horizons.
Especially for the children in the manor, he wanted to bring them some special gifts.
Looking at Joseph and Claude, they were also carrying a lot of shopping bags, and they didn't let Jack carry all the things (even though Jack had 60% of the shopping bags).
.................................................. ........................
“Alas—ah—”
Jack sat down on a chair at the door of the dessert shop like a deflated ball, and threw the shopping bags on his body to the ground with a heavy "bang", as if they were not just a few light bags, but a heavy burden.
He was breathing heavily, his chest heaving like a bellows, and beads of sweat the size of beans on his forehead slid down his cheeks, soaking his collar.
"Haha, it seems that you really lack exercise, Jack." Joseph stood aside with a playful smile on his face, and teased slowly.
Hearing this, Jack suddenly raised his head, glared at Joseph fiercely, and retorted angrily: "How dare you say that! It's obviously you who threw more than half of the things to me, do you two have the nerve?!"
If looks could kill, Joseph would have been torn into pieces by Jack several times, but unfortunately, if the two of them really fought, Joseph could guarantee that he would never be at a disadvantage.
"Where's Claude?"
After he had a tantrum, Jack suddenly realized that Claude was missing.
As for why Jack knew that the man in front of him, with his hair loose and covering his right eye, was Joseph and not Claude, it was because Claude would never be as "cheap" as Joseph. (﹁“﹁)
Joseph glanced towards the dessert shop. It seemed that Claude had gone to order food. He was much more conscientious than Joseph.
"You don't have any dietary restrictions, right?" Joseph asked in advance just in case.
"No."
That's true. Although he was the one who asked the question first, Joseph really felt that he was redundant. What taboos could he have about Jack's tongue? -_-||
After all, he's probably the only one in the entire estate, and even the entire world, who can eat carbon as a main course.
.................................................. ........................
A beautiful day starts from the early morning~~~
Today is really a perfect day. There is no mess to deal with. Miss Truth and Bai are particularly quiet. Mr. Reasoning feels that he will definitely have a quiet day today.
However, all the above fantasies disappeared instantly when Mr. Reasoning opened the window.
My goodness, he almost fell out of the second-floor window. Is he blind? Tuberose?! And DM??!!
"Reasoning, what's wrong with you today?"
At this moment, Miss Truth happened to open the door and saw Mr. Reasoning with half of his body leaning out and almost falling downstairs.
Mr. Reasoning closed the window reflexively and pulled up the curtains.
"Nothing, I just tripped and almost fell."
The excuse was so lame that even Mr. Reasoning himself found it ridiculous. He believed that Miss Truth must have discovered that he was lying, but at the same time he also believed that Miss Truth would be able to figure it out.
Since she lied, it proved that she could not interfere in this matter for the time being.
"Okay, reasoning, but remember not to be too dangerous. If anything goes wrong, be sure to tell me."
.................................................. ........................
Jack slumped in his chair. He didn't understand why it took so long to order dessert for three people, even Joseph went in to urge them to finish it.
He was already tired from carrying a bunch of shopping bags, and his waist and legs ached. Now, under the warm sun, he felt like he was about to fall asleep.
Jack's eyes closed as he thought about it, but he couldn't sleep yet. He wasn't old enough to do that, was he? Besides, he was getting a little impatient waiting. He was curious. Did this shop get its ingredients from the farm? Otherwise, why was it so slow?
Jack just opened his eyes and wanted to go in and urge the shop owner, but what he saw was Naib's head close to him.
"Ah ah ah ah ah!!!"
Even though he is someone you are very familiar with, you will still be scared when he suddenly appears in front of you, okay?
The result was that Jack fell on his butt.
.................................................. ........................
Mr. Reasoning also found it strange. He originally just wanted to stand across the street and watch from afar. It was not until DM entered the store that he dared to slowly approach Tuberose, who seemed to have collapsed on the chair and fallen asleep.
Are they suddenly doing some mass hair dyeing thing?
Tuberose dyed her own white hair the same black.
DM that guy also, inexplicably dyed his black and white hair into a greedy color
But then again, when Mr. Reasoner saw Tuberose's appearance under the mask for the first time, he felt it was quite novel, because almost every time he saw that guy, he was wearing a mask, and he thought the other person had a scar on his face.
But... he looked at the large and small shopping bags on the ground. What kind of sudden idea did DM come up with? He has so many servants, but he doesn't let them go out to buy things, and he runs out to work himself to buy things?
I really don’t understand what these rich people are thinking, but maybe I can take a sneak peek at the contents of the shopping bag. Maybe there are guns or contraband hidden underneath.
But before Mr. Reasoning could take any action, Tulip opened her eyes.
"Ah ah ah ah ah!!!"
.................................................. ........................
On the other side, Miss Zhenxiang on the second floor of the detective agency found a telescope from somewhere and was silently watching every move of the dessert shop across the street!
After seeing the night-blooming jasmine with dyed hair fall to the ground, Miss Truth silently applauded Mr. Reasoning in her heart.
Well done, Mr. Reasoner, you've got him pinned down!
At the same time, Miss Truth was extremely glad that she had just called the police with their old friend Sheriff Jose.
She had the same idea as Mr. Reasoning. She didn't believe that the reason for the big boss and his most capable assistant to go out together was just to buy things. There must be something shady hidden in the bags.
Call the police in advance and you will definitely catch them in the act!
.................................................. ........................
Jack fell to the ground, holding his chest and breathing heavily.
"Naib, why are you here too? You..." Jack tried Naib's clothes up and down, "What are you wearing?"
Jack's disgusted expression was exposed clearly, but it was not his fault. After all, Holmes in the previous world seemed to dress like this, just in a different color. What happened in the previous world (especially the last kiss) almost gave him PTSD. Now when he saw this outfit, his eyes twitched.
However, to Jack's surprise, Naib in front of him just replied curiously,
"Who?"
No, wait a minute.
Tuberose's reaction confused Mr. Reasoning. Is this really Tuberose? Or is it just the body shape that looks a bit similar?
Although Mr. Reasoning has a 99% chance of saying that the person in front of him is Tuberose, what if he is that 1% possibility?
But he was clearly with the DM just now. Although that DM also dyed his hair blonde, it still looked like him no matter how you looked at him, right?
.................................................. ........................
"Jack, don't tell me you fell asleep on the chair and fell to the floor. And Naib, why are you here?"
Joseph walked out of the dessert shop with two pies in his hands.
Joseph cursed inwardly. This dessert shop was a joke. It would be better for everyone if it closed down sooner rather than later. He couldn't understand how such an unreliable shop could exist. They were already open until noon, and they'd just discovered they were out of cream for making ice cream. This was outrageous!
He couldn't help but think of Claude, who never came out after he went in. It turned out that the clerk had gone out to buy new cream.
The more Joseph thought about it, the angrier he became. Couldn't these shop assistants prepare the ingredients in advance?
However, the store owner still had some conscience and, as an apology, gave the three customers who were forced to wait some free citrus pies.
Joseph looked at the citrus pies, but he was not happy at all. This was not a bribe at all. They had wasted so much time!
Moreover, as a dessert shop, they didn’t even know that the ingredients were out of stock and still made the customers wait. How can this be called illegal?
Joseph felt that the management of this store was too chaotic. How could it retain customers with such service quality?
However, after coming out with the pie in his hand, Joseph was stunned for a moment. Why did Naib come here without greeting them in advance? If he wanted to come, wouldn’t it be better for the four of them to go together?
