"Well, work hard. I believe you can be as good as your uncle. Okay, you can leave now. Don't forget that I have to go out later."
The Kaiser nodded and said to him.
"Yes, His Majesty the Emperor."
Lin Shangzhou looked up at Alexandrine. He wasn't sure how he performed, but judging from Alexandrine's appearance, there shouldn't be any problem. He took two steps back, turned around and walked out of the room.
After Lin Shangzhou left, Alexandrine turned to look at her sister and asked, "Liya, what do you think of him?"
"How can I tell what kind of person he is when we meet for the first time? Sister, you are too hard on me. I have received the "divine revelation", but that doesn't mean I can read minds."
Cecilia pouted as she spoke while pinching Alexandrine's face. After pinching for a while, Alexandrine frowned slightly and pulled her sister's hand away with her hand. It seemed that Cecilia hurt her.
"I don't know how he compares to Uncle Forle."
Alexandrine said as she looked at the closed door. Cecilia behind her stopped what she was doing, handed the comb to the maid, walked aside and sat on another chair, looking at the Kaiser and said:
"He has just started working, don't ask too much of him, sister."
"Well, I know that, of course. I hope he can tell stories like Uncle Ful..."
Alexandrine nodded.
"hope so."
Looking at her sister, Cecilia sighed softly, and at the same time she hoped that Fritz could tell a good story like his uncle.
After meeting the German Emperor, Lin Shangzhou understood why the soldiers were so polite to him. His Majesty the Emperor and his sister affectionately called their uncle "Uncle Fore", which showed that his uncle had a good relationship with them.
In other words, Lin Yangyu, or rather, Vollandon Hipper is a popular figure around the Emperor, and it is reasonable for them to be friendly to him.
After returning to his lounge, Lin Shangzhou picked up his notebook and started reading. He would have to go to work in a while, so he quickly checked the notebook to see if there was anything his uncle had told him to remember before they set out.
After browsing for a while, he found some useful information: the little queen liked listening to stories and reading novels.
(I like listening to stories and reading novels)
Lin Shangzhou folded the notebook on his legs, leaned against the sofa and looked up at the ceiling.
“I like listening to stories…”
He guessed that his uncle would tell stories to the Kaiser while driving, and might even take time out to tell her stories. So what would he tell her while driving next?
Generally speaking, the most famous Chinese novels of this era are the four great classics, such as "Journey to the West" and "Water Margin", but should I tell her about these four great classics?
Lin Shangzhou shook his head. Even if his uncle finished telling her about the four famous novels, he might have to change to something else, and he might not be able to tell them well.
(If I change to something else, what should I change?)
Like "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio" and "Classic of Mountains and Seas"?
He thought of novels of strange stories. He felt that it should be possible as the stories were quite interesting. However, whether he could tell them well was another matter. He could still roughly retell the general contents of the Four Great Classics, but he really couldn't think of anything to tell about these strange stories for a while.
"Mr. Hipper, may I come in?"
Cecilia's voice was heard outside the door. Lin Shangzhou put away his notebook, stood up and walked to the door to open it for her.
"Please come in."
Cecilia walked into the room and sat on the sofa. Lin Shangzhou poured her a cup of tea and added some water to his own cup.
"Thank you."
"You're welcome."
Sitting opposite Cecilia, Lin Shangzhou looked at her and said, "Miss Cecilia, are you here to tell me about Emperor William?"
"Ah."
Cecilia looked at Lin Shangzhou with a strange look and nodded. Her look made Lin Shangzhou feel that it was really abnormal that he didn't know about William II.
"Five years ago, in May of 1925, my grandfather, Emperor Wilhelm, took all the Hohenzollern family members in other countries out for a trip on an airship, except for my sister and me. What no one expected was that the airship exploded shortly after takeoff, killing all the staff and passengers on the airship. My sister and I became the only two direct relatives of my grandfather left. Not long after that, Alexandrine, who was only ten years old at the time, succeeded to become the emperor of the German Empire."
There was sadness in Cecilia's eyes. Seeing her sad look, Lin Shangzhou wondered if he should not let her tell him about William II's experience.
"I'm sorry for reminding you of sad things."
"Ah, it's okay, I've gotten over the sadness a long time ago."
Cecilia waved her hands gently to calm herself down.
Looking at Cecilia sitting opposite him, Lin Shangzhou thought of his past, but before he had time to recall it a few more times, he realized a more serious problem.
Cecilia said that Alexandrine was only ten years old when she succeeded to the throne, and she was Alexandrine's sister. Now Alexandrine is 15 years old, and Cecilia...
Lin Shangzhou glanced at Cecilia's pair of breasts wrapped in military uniform and exclaimed in his heart, "Oh my god!"
This girl must be under 15 years old now. Girls of this age are called "girls", but her figure does not look like that of a girl at all. She looks completely well-developed.
He thought of the current German Emperor. The German Emperor looked like a little girl, which made her feel even more outrageous. What was wrong with this pair of sisters? The elder sister seemed to have no development at the age of 15, but the younger sister was too developed.
"Miss Cecilia, may I ask, how old are you?"
"I?"
Cecilia looked at Lin Shangzhou. She seemed to know why Lin Shangzhou asked this question, so she covered her mouth and smiled and said, "I'm 13 years old this year."
13 years old….
WTF….
Lin Shangzhou was so surprised that he was speechless. Although this was not uncommon in the two-dimensional world, seeing it with his own eyes still made him feel extremely outrageous. Besides, this was not the two-dimensional world!
"Are you really that surprised? I have received divine revelation, so it is normal for my body to grow rapidly."
Compared to Lin Shangzhou who was extremely surprised, Cecilia had no opinion on her body which was totally inconsistent with her age.
Now there is another word that makes Lin Shangzhou feel overwhelmed: Divine revelation, what is this? Is there such a magical thing in the world of KR? No, right?
After struggling for several seconds, Lin Shangzhou asked Cecilia:
"Um...Excuse me, what is "divine revelation"?"
As for why he was so conflicted, the reason was simple. He felt that this "divine revelation" should be common sense, and it was embarrassing for him to ask Cecilia common sense questions.
Hearing Lin Shangzhou's question, Cecilia looked at him in shock, with the same expression as when he asked what happened to William II not long ago. If it weren't for his identity, Lin Shangzhou felt that Cecilia would have wanted to call him an idiot.
His guess was not wrong. Cecilia did curse him in her heart, but she didn't call him an idiot, but a "fool" which was a lower level.
The gray-haired girl sitting opposite her was speechless, covering her face with her hands and sighing.
"Although I heard Uncle Forle say that you pay little attention to the outside world, I never thought that you didn't even know about 'divine revelation'. Even if you didn't hear about it when you were in China, you should have heard about it after coming to Germany... Oh, forget it, I'll explain it to you."
"Um...thank you."
Lin Shangzhou scratched his head embarrassedly and thanked her with a silly smile.
"You know the magic army..."
Cecilia stopped talking halfway and looked at Lin Shangzhou doubtfully. Lin Shangzhou shook his head at her. He didn't know anything about magic troops.
"I really don't know...Oh my God, how have you lived for the past twenty years? I've never met anyone like you."
Cecilia covered her face with her hands in shock. She really couldn't hold it in any longer. Now her evaluation of Lin Shangzhou in her mind rose to a higher level from a fool to an "idiot". She wanted to curse him out directly, but she held back because of her upbringing.
What could Lin Shangzhou say when he saw Cecilia's speechless and shocked expression? He looked at Cecilia embarrassedly. It was his fault that he really knew nothing.
It took Cecilia a long time to come out of her state of shock. She wiped the sweat from her forehead with her hand, picked up the teacup and took a big sip of water, then looked at Lin Shangzhou and slowly said:
"I don't know why you don't even know about the magic force, but never mind, I'll tell you about it."
"I'm all ears."
Lin Shangzhou cheered himself up and looked serious.
"First of all, the magic troop is a special force formed by selecting people with magic talents and training them. I won't go into details about the past. The current magic troop is mainly responsible for aerial reconnaissance, ground support and intercepting enemy magic troop. If necessary, we will also execute orders to intercept aircraft.
(The magic troop... is really becoming magical.)
Listening to Cecilia's words, Lin Shangzhou complained in his heart.
"So the magic force is the same as the air force?"
"Air Force? You mean the flying corps?"
Cecilia paused for a moment before realizing what Lin Shangzhou was talking about.
"No, no, no, we are different from the flying troops. They are responsible for high-altitude operations, and we are low-altitude operations."
Lin Shangzhou nodded, not quite understanding, but wondering in his heart, didn't Germany have an air force? He remembered that Germany established an air force during World War I.
He soon figured out what was going on. With the presence of the magic forces, the establishment of the Air Force would be hindered, after all, it would compete with the magic forces for resources.
"What about 'divine revelation'?"
"'Divine revelation' means that people with magical talents have awakened more power. Because the acceptance of 'Divine revelation' is completely passive and represents a large amount of energy, the body and mind of those who are too young to receive 'Divine revelation' will develop quickly to the level of being able to receive 'Divine revelation' before receiving 'Divine revelation'. Regardless of age, as long as they receive 'Divine revelation', they can become the best among the best."
Cecilia raised her chin proudly and said, "Take me for example."
"Okay, that's all about the magic force and divine revelation. Is there anything else you want to ask?"
Lin Shangzhou thought for a moment and said, "No, thank you for your answer."
"You're welcome."
Then Cecilia left. Before leaving, she asked Lin Shangzhou to pay attention to the time because it was almost time for the German Emperor to go out.

Chapter 5 The Kaiser Who Loved to Listen to Stories
He looked up at the clock on the wall: 9:25. After confirming the time, Lin Shangzhou got up and left his lounge and went to the car outside. His uncle's notes said that the Kaiser was going to the library in downtown Berlin at this time, and she would read books there until nearly 12 o'clock before leaving.
Lin Shangzhou himself didn't know how to get to the library, but his uncle's notes clearly stated which route to take, so he didn't worry about taking the wrong path.
Sitting in the car, Lin Shangzhou quietly waited for the arrival of the German Emperor. His hands in white gloves were placed on the steering wheel. He looked at his hands and suddenly felt that he would be on the battlefield in the next second.
"How could the Kaiser's driver be sent to the battlefield? Besides, it's a peaceful time now."
He chuckled twice and threw away his previous thoughts. He knew that the closest war to Germany in the KR world was the German Civil War in 7, seven years later, and this war might not necessarily happen.
Lin Shangzhou calmed down and waited for the arrival of the German Emperor. More than ten minutes later, he heard crisp footsteps outside. He turned his head and saw German Emperor Alexandrine, who was wearing a gray and black formal dress, walking towards the car accompanied by Cecilia.
The German Emperor's formal dress added some majesty to the Empress who looked no more than fifteen years old, but the Empress, who looked childish and no more than 1.5 meters tall, was far inferior to Cecilia beside her.
Lin Shangzhou consciously opened the door and walked to the other side of the car to open the door for the German Emperor. After all, the German Emperor was only accompanied by Cecilia and no other servants.
"Thanks.
Alexandrine stood in front of the car door and said to Lin Shangzhou that this was something he had not expected. He did not expect the German Emperor to thank him. However, before he could react, the German Emperor got into the car, followed closely by Cecilia.
After closing the car door, Lin Shangzhou got into the driver's seat, started the car and prepared to set off for the library in Berlin.
The car was driving smoothly on the road outside the Wuyou Palace. Lin Shangzhou, who was sitting in the driver's seat, glanced at the German Emperor and Cecilia in the back seat through the rearview mirror. The German Emperor was looking out the window boredly, while Cecilia was looking at Lin Shangzhou's eyes in the rearview mirror, which made him quickly look away.
Seeing Lin Shangzhou immediately shifting his gaze after making eye contact with her, Cecilia raised the corners of her mouth slightly and smiled silently.
Lin Shangzhou thought of the bored German Emperor he had just seen. He remembered that his uncle's notes said that his uncle would tell the German Emperor stories to relieve her boredom while driving. Since his uncle did that, it was reasonable for him to do the same.
But what did he say?
Since he really had no idea what he was going to tell, he decided to let the Kaiser choose the content of the story.
After hesitating for a while, Lin Shangzhou said:
"Your Majesty, please forgive me for being so presumptuous, but could you tell me what kind of story you want to hear?"
Alexandrine in the back seat became interested when she heard Lin Shangzhou say he wanted to tell her a story. Cecilia on the side found Lin Shangzhou's respectful attitude funny. She forgot to tell Lin Shangzhou not to be overly respectful.
Of course, this is based on the fact that Lin Shangzhou is Lin Yangyu's nephew.
“What kind of story do I want to hear?”
Alexandrine thought for a few seconds and then said to Lin Shangzhou, "I have read all of the four great Chinese classics except Dream of the Red Chamber. I am not interested in that book. I like the adventure stories like the one about Tang Monk and his four disciples in Journey to the West the most."
When the German Emperor mentioned the title of the book, she used quite standard Chinese, which made Lin Shangzhou secretly complain in his heart. It seemed that she really liked these books since she could speak so standardly.
"You like adventure stories..."
After getting the correct answer, Lin Shangzhou began to search for stories related to adventure in his mind.
The first thing that came to his mind was Don Quixote, so he asked, "Your Majesty, have you ever read Don Quixote?"
"Don Quixote, that's the novel written by that Spaniard, of course I've read it, you can change to something else."
