Mystery: Who has seen my brother?

Chapter 157 There is a problem

The Red Gloves' training was very strict, causing Klein to once again experience the pain he had felt in the combat class.

However, Klein possessed a wealth of extraordinary knowledge and had already mastered the Red Gloves Extraordinary Knowledge course, which was his easiest course. Therefore, the theory course became Klein's favorite.

In the evening, Klein dragged his exhausted body back to 18 Minsk Street. He opened the mailbox in the yard and confirmed that there was no mail before entering the house.

There were still pirates to hunt... Klein thought wearily... He just wanted to lie down on the bed and sleep immediately.

Eve was lying on the sofa, reading Stormwind Heights. When she heard the noise at the door, she looked up at Klein and said, "Dinner is ready."

"Thank you," Klein said weakly, "but I have no appetite."

"Look up first."

Klein was a little confused, but he still raised his head and looked at the dining table.

Chinese food!

Klein looked at the table full of Chinese food in disbelief, as if in a dream. He wanted to rub his eyes in disbelief, but he didn't do it.

His appetite came back immediately. He took two quick steps and came to the table. It was a very ordinary home-cooked meal, two dishes and a soup: hot and sour shredded potatoes, stewed potatoes with meat, and tomato egg drop soup. The staple food was steamed buns.

The poor food in Loen made him miserable, but now seeing Chinese food, which was quite good even in the world with abundant food in his previous life, how could he not be happy?

What’s more, this is hometown food!
When Klein thought of the delicious food he had never eaten in his previous life, he felt a pang of heartache. Only when he lost something did he realize how precious it was.

Moreover, Klein would not be able to eat it for a long time. After all, in his previous life, both Eve and he relied on takeout to survive and were not good at cooking.

Klein pulled out a chair and sat down. He impatiently picked up his chopsticks and turned around to ask, "Aren't you going to eat?"

"Of course I ate it," Eve closed the book, supported herself on the sofa and sat up. She walked to the dining table and placed Stormwind Heights on the table. "Of course I have to eat the food I cooked."

Eve pulled out a chair, sat down, and picked up the chopsticks.

Klein glanced at Eve and noticed that the book in her hand was Stormwind Heights. He was immediately puzzled. "Stormwind Heights? Didn't you just finish reading it last month? Are you reading it for the second time so soon?"

Eve picked up Stormwind Heights, turned to the title page, and showed it to Klein.

"Fors Wall" was written in beautiful handwriting on the light brown title page.

"Rarity brought it."

Klein understood immediately, then noticed that Ruirui was not at home and immediately asked, "Ruirui is not home?"

"Yes." Eve nodded. "She is a vampire cat. Although she can eat normal food, it cannot satisfy her hunger. She must suck blood."

"If she were to eat at home, it would have a strong smell of blood, which I wouldn't mind, but you might not be able to eat your dinner, so I put her in the mirror world."

Klein was stunned for a moment and asked hesitantly:
"The blood Ruirui sucked..."

"It's mainly plasma from hospitals, purchased through various channels."

Eve replied before Klein finished speaking.

Hearing this, Klein breathed a sigh of relief, picked up his chopsticks, and began to enjoy the food.

Because of the seasoning, the taste was slightly different from his previous life, but Klein was already very content.

Eve touched her stomach. Mythical creatures don't need to eat. Although she ate a lot, she didn't feel full.

Klein leaned back in his chair, his hand resting on his abdomen. He hadn't eaten in a while, so he'd accidentally eaten a bit too much, leaving his stomach feeling uncomfortable.

He rubbed his stomach quietly, relaxed for a while, and when he felt better, he stood up and cleaned up the dishes.

After cleaning up, Klein returned to the living room and saw that Ruirui had also returned.

Klein curled his lips, took two steps forward, and held Rarity in his arms, occasionally stroking her fur and scratching her chin, making Rarity purr in comfort. "I met Megose today," Klein said as he stroked Rarity. "She's fine now. If she continues as she is, she'll be back in Tingen in two weeks."

"That's great news." Eve said with a smile.

Although Eve didn't say it, Klein could infer that it was Eve who saved Megose, so Klein told Eve in detail about his conversation with Megose.

"Baron Edgar is problematic," Eve said after a pause. "But he certainly didn't participate in the Evil God's Offspring incident. He's an uninformed gentleman."

As she spoke, Eve set out the tea set, took out some Earl Grey tea leaves, and brewed two cups of black tea.

Klein was stunned for a moment. He hadn't expected such a turn of events. "What's the problem?"

"For some reason, I was assigned the task of investigating Baron Edgar's company. I didn't find anything unusual at the time, but Mickey seemed to have discovered something and has been investigating it in depth." Eve stirred the tea and said lightly.

Klein was immediately shocked. What kind of thing could have caused an Angel King to send people to investigate him?
Seeing the undisguised surprise on Klein's face, Eve took a sip of tea and said, "You're overthinking it. He's just one of the group."

So that's how it is... Klein was immediately relieved... Things weren't that serious yet.

"What's the problem with Baron Edgar?" Klein asked. He didn't ask Eve why she was investigating others. When Eve said "a certain reason", he knew he couldn't get the truth from her.

"You can go investigate," Eve replied.

Klein was stunned for a moment, then reacted and nodded.

Eve had told him that He would give him only two things: a net and a ladder. The ladder would help him climb up, while the net would prevent him from falling into the abyss.

The last time Eve was willing to help was because that matter was far beyond Klein's capabilities, but this time...

Klein guessed that this matter should be within his ability, or within his ability in the early to middle stages.

He shook his head and found that he was subconsciously leaning on his sister. This was really not a good habit.

Klein exhaled, calmed himself, and changed the subject, "Is Miss Megose really okay?"

"Yes, the contamination has been removed from her."

"That's good, but Miss Megose's life won't be peaceful because she joined the Nighthawks." Thinking of the mastermind who nearly killed so many innocent people, Klein said angrily, "That audience member is such a jerk."

"Hmm... To be more precise, it should be said that Ince Zangwill is a real bastard. After all, he wrote the script." Eve pondered for a moment, touched her chin and said.

"Ince Zangwill! The wanted criminal!" Klein's eyes suddenly widened, and he looked at Eve in disbelief. "Wait, so that means another existence, that high-ranking spectator..."

"It's 0-08."

Eve's tone was calm, but it sounded like thunder to Klein's ears.

"Do you have 0-08?" Klein asked immediately.

"No."

"So, it's in the hands of the being who killed Ince Zangwill?" Klein suddenly felt a headache. His intuition told him that the person who killed Ince Zangwill in front of Eve was definitely a high-ranking being.

"Yes," Eve added, as if she could read minds, "and you can never get it back."

Klein closed his mouth again after opening it. He really wanted to ask this question. Although he knew the hope was slim, that was the Level Zero Seal of the Church of Evernight. He had to try his best no matter what.

"Don't worry," Eve patted Klein's shoulder and comforted him, "Dark Night doesn't necessarily want you to recover 0-08."

Klein was stunned and looked at Eve blankly, "What..."

"It's just a guess," Eve retracted her hand, smiled, and pointed to the window. "It's completely dark now. Let's go. Your bounty is still waiting for you."

Klein followed Eve's finger and looked over. The curtains tightly blocked his view of the outside world.
