Karen opened his mouth and wanted to speak, but he couldn't make a sound for a while. He could only take a deep breath and blinked a few times to prevent tears from pooling in his eyes.

"Hi, hello, this is Inmeles Funeral Society."

On the other end of the phone, Uncle Mason repeated it again.

Karen's eyes lingered on the portraits hanging on the wall of the study room. There was a kind of feeling called closeness to homeland. If it was just writing letters, it would be fine, but after hearing the voice, the face of the person on the other end of the phone, his whole body People, the people around him, the living room, the yard, the kitchen on the second floor and the bedroom on the third floor, etc., all the emotions and scenes come to mind in an instant;

Before that, Karen had never felt that he was a sentimental person. He liked to solve and organize his life calmly. It could even be said that he was somewhat repelled by letting his emotions affect his rationality, but the facts told him , he is not the special one.

At this time,

Uncle Mason, who has not been able to get a reply from Karen, seemed to have sensed something. He lowered his voice and asked with clear excitement in his tone:

"Karen, is that you?"

Karen gritted her teeth,

Finally he spoke:

"uncle."

"Oh, Karen, you're okay, you're okay, hahaha, you're okay, you're okay!"

Uncle Mason almost screamed on the other end of the phone, and the sound of leather shoes bouncing on the floor could be heard from the microphone.

"Uncle, I'm fine, I'm fine," Karen said.

"Karen, are you in Wayne now? Well, look at me asking, you must be in Wayne, you..."

"Hello, Karen?"

Aunt Mary's voice came from the phone,

"Karen, is it really Karen?"

"It's me, Auntie, Auntie, your health is fine..."

"You heartless bastard, why did you think of calling home now, your conscience has been gnawed by maggots!!"

Aunt Mary cursed directly on the other end of the phone;

Karen smiled and listened to the scolding coming from the microphone.

"It's okay, it's okay, it's okay." Uncle Mason's voice came, "Ask about the child's life in Wayne."

"Karen, how are you doing in Wayne?"

"Uncle and aunt, there was an accident on the passenger ship before, we were rescued ashore, and encountered some problems, so I have been unable to contact my family, but now I am fine, I have settled down, and my life is on the right track.

In two days I plan to go to see the house. "

Karen omits a lot.

When the uncle and aunt on the other end of the phone heard "planning to see the house", they also tacitly stopped asking about the process, because they could "make up" by themselves.

Alas, poor child, he must have not been treated well at the "fiancée's house", and he must have been looked down upon there, that's why he planned to buy a house to live in by himself.

Uncle and aunt did not intentionally ask about Karen's "scar".

"You should deal with the matter of the house as soon as possible. Oh, by the way, you said something happened to the passenger ship. Are your documents not lost?"

"No, they are all kept by my side. The loan contract, passbook and cash are all there."

"Huh, that's good, that's good. If you have money in your hand, you don't have to be afraid of anything. I'll ask your uncle to remit some money to your account tomorrow."

"Auntie, I have enough money on me."

"It's definitely not enough, how can it be possible, you want to save face, I know."

"Is the family okay? Your body?"

"Grandpa is still in a coma, but his breathing has been steady." Aunt Mary said, "Your Aunt Winnie went to the nursing home to discuss cooperation, and Mina and the others are not at home, so they can't answer the phone and talk to you."

"It's okay, I'll call back after I've settled the house and installed the phone," Karen said.

"Well, when you tell us the address, we can write some letters, send some photos and packages."

"And canned herring, Karen!" cried Uncle Mason.

"Okay, Auntie."

"Is there anything else you want to say?" This is what my aunt is asking my uncle.

The uncle took the microphone and said, "Karen."

"uncle."

"Believe in yourself, have faith in yourself."

Karen froze for a moment, then realized that it was his uncle comforting him who was kicked out by his fiancée's family, so he could only smile and say:

"Okay, uncle."

On the other end of the phone, Uncle Mason shouted courageously:

"Remember, our Inmeles men: they may lack money, they may lack careers, but they can never lack women!

Ouch! ! "

The uncle should have been pinched severely by the aunt.

"Karen." Aunt Mary took the receiver.

"Auntie."

"Your uncle was right."

"Ouch..." Aunt Mary said that what Uncle said was right, and slapped Uncle's soft waist again.

"I don't advise you to come back now. You definitely want to make another breakthrough in Wayne. I support you, and you have to believe that you will definitely find someone who understands you and appreciates you."

"I've always believed it," Karen said.

"Okay, you should pay attention to rest there and pay attention to safety."

"Auntie, you should also pay attention to your health."

Phone, hang up.

Alfred delivered a hot towel, Karen reached out to take it, and wiped his face.

"Master, when I went to the door to pick up the towels that Borg had prepared, I saw Mr. Bede outside."

"Well, let him in."

"Yes, master."

Alfred walked to the door of the study, opened the door, and ushered Mr. Bede in. Alfred hesitated for a while, but stood against the door of the study without leaving the study.

"Master Cullen." Mr. Bede called out, and he pulled up a chair consciously and sat down.

"Things are doing very well." Karen commented, "Actually, Mr. Bede, you have always been very capable."

Mr. Bede said with a smile: "Thank you for your praise, but in fact, my ability is indeed limited, especially for this family, oh no, I'm talking about what I can do for this previous family, really not much."

Karen nodded. In the previous Allen family, it is no longer that changing the wise patriarch can solve the family crisis;

Whether it is the Rafael family's pressing step by step or the "Black Seed" plan calculated by the Gloria family, what is needed is absolutely tyrannical combat power, but Mr. Bede can do anything else, but he can't fight. .

Patriarch Raphael was killed by Diss, and Gloria IX was dealt with by Earl Recar. Although they were both suspected of shooting mosquitoes with cannonballs, these two mosquitoes, Mr. Bader, were completely helpless.

And on the basis of powerlessness, there may be some predictive ability, so you can only choose to be negative.

"I'm moving into Yorktown in two days."

Since you are leaving, you must say hello to the host before you leave.

"If Master Karen wants to live in the city, then I will sort out the family's real estate list in York City later, and send it to the young master, so that the young master can choose it himself."

"No, before coming to Wien, my uncle and aunt helped me prepare the house purchase loan contract from the Wien National Bank, and I can afford a house with a loan."

Mr. Bede didn't know how to answer this sentence for a moment, especially when he saw Karen still smiling and saying this sentence confidently.

But he immediately figured out the joint,

Smiled:

"I understand, then I sincerely wish that Master Karen can choose the most cost-effective house that satisfies him, and the Allen Consortium will not interfere."

"Thanks to Allen Manor for taking care of me these days."

"No, it's Allen Manor who thanks you for your care, young master." Mr. Bede stood up and said seriously.

"Well, there is no need to be so polite between our two families."

"Master Karen gave me a warning last time. I need to catch the breath of the earth. Now, after hearing what Master Karen has arranged for me, I seem to have gained a new understanding of this sentence."

"What harvest?" Karen asked curiously.

My "prospective father-in-law" is someone who can sit down and chat with Diss face to face. He has many obvious shortcomings, but his strengths must be extremely outstanding.

Not to mention anything else, just the picture he drew for himself, a person who can figure out his inner thoughts after a few words and draw them intuitively, you have to marvel at his talent in that respect.

"The Wall God Sect has always been obsessed with painting murals for gods, and believes that this is the highest pursuit of art."

"Um."

"I'm beginning to doubt this pursuit now. Master Karen, you must have considered this aspect when you chose to leave Allen Manor this time, right?"

"I am a servant of God... Oh no, I am a revelation;

I think at this stage, what I need to do is to think more and observe more. Allen Manor is very comfortable to live in, but it is not a good observation window. In other words, I have not yet reached the stage where I need to observe. It is said that it has not reached the stage of observation. "

"Master Cullen wants to observe city life?"

"Yes, the point is to observe people."

"I understand. This is also a question that I am repeatedly weighing in my heart. I vaguely feel that it is a kind of extreme misunderstanding to pursue the aesthetics and height of murals?"

"It's not a mistake."

"It doesn't count?" Bede was a little surprised, surprised that Karen actually gave a negative.

"I have learned some of the teachings of the Wall God Sect. In my opinion, the pursuit of the Wall God Sect is to record and inherit the history of the last era and even the last era or even longer history in the form of murals. .

You are contemporary artists, but at the same time, you are observers and recorders of history. "

"Yes, that's right, your description, young master, is very accurate."

"So I think there is nothing wrong with your approach."

"There is nothing wrong with the method?" Mr. Bede heard the implication, "Then what is wrong?"

"I think it may be because of the fact that Raliersa was suppressed by the God of Order, which has brought so many years of paranoia and extreme emotions to the Wall God Cult. You mistakenly think that this is the real beauty.

A kind of loyalty, fearlessness and dedication to art that is not afraid of power, but also portrays the picture.

But it may also be precisely because of this paranoia that your vision becomes narrow in the pursuit of art. "

"Narrow?"

"You are too obsessed with recording history with 'God's murals'."

"However, if the murals don't record with the theme of 'God', what should they use?"

"people."

"people?"

"People, and only people, are the driving force behind the creation of history."

…

Two days passed, and during these two days, Karen gave Eunice two more foot massages, one time she was wearing black silk and the other time she was wearing white silk.

Perhaps it was because she knew that her boyfriend was leaving soon, so Eunice seemed more proactive.

In addition, Karen also had a formal farewell dinner with the members of the Allen family. At the dinner, he stated the reason why he wanted to move out of the Allen Manor temporarily. He said that he wanted to go to the crowded streets in the city. walk more and see more;

But it may be because this reason is too real, so real that everyone present except Mr. Bede thinks it is fake.

They prefer to believe that Karen has other reasons to leave, or that the Inmeles house has other arrangements.

Karen didn't bother to explain too much about this. During the meeting, he agreed to the old Anderson's request to keep in touch with Allen Manor, and would also take time to visit the manor frequently.

…

This morning, before leaving the Allen Manor, Karen once again came to the cemetery of Allen's ancestors to pay homage.

Looking at the restored tombstone of the pirate ship, with a smile on the corner of Karen's mouth, he stretched out his hand to gently stroke it.

In fact, Karen has always been curious about one thing, that is, the reason why he can wake up Count Recar is because his ability has really reached that level, or is it because of Count Recar's own personality that his corpse is more likely to be awakened?

After all, at that time, he was going to wake up an ordinary ancestor of the Allen family to try his hand, and he didn't want to pick a famous one in history, because being famous often means that he is stronger.

Therefore, it is true that I awakened Count Recar to solve the crisis in Allen Manor, but did Count Recar with the "flammable physique" also help me accumulate experience?

For example, when I woke up, the iron chain under my feet turned red.

In layman's terms, any skill requires "proficiency";

Just like practicing the technique of "Punishment Gun" repeatedly, you have to succeed once before you can effectively reflect, summarize and improve. If you don't succeed all the time, you will fall into an endless loop of self-doubt.

Also because of this, are you and Earl Recar achieving each other?

or,

Is it because we are destined?

Karen brought two bouquets of flowers today. After placing one bouquet in front of Earl Recar's tombstone, he placed the other bouquet in front of ancestor Allen's tombstone. The rest of the ancestors' tombstones had no share.

Therefore, don't expect that it will be over with one kick of your legs, because if you don't mix up your personal appearance in life, you will be treated differently after death.

After the worship, when Karen was about to get in the car, he found Mrs. Jenny standing by the car door.

"Master Karen." Mrs. Jenny took the initiative to speak.

"lady."

"Eunice..." Mrs. Jenny took a deep breath and continued, "Eunice, how do you plan to arrange it?"

Actually, this question should be asked by her husband, but Mrs. Jenny found that her husband has been talking all day long these days, and his mental state is not very good, so she can only do it for herself as a mother. My daughter asked.

"She is waking up now, and I think she can get better care if she stays at home."

"After that, what I want to ask is that in the future, I asked Lisa, and Lisa said that it will improve obviously in two or three months, and it will not be so lethargic. It will be completely improved in half a year at most."

"I will go back to the manor to see her every month."

"Well, what then?"

"After she recovers completely, I will pick her up and leave together. She promised me, and I promised her too."

"Karen, should I trust you?"

"You should trust the tutor of the Inmeles family."

Karen bowed slightly to Mrs. Jenny, and Alfred opened the car door for him and sat in.

The car parked behind the castle, and the Allen family saw Karen off with the etiquette of entertaining the royal family.

Alfred sat in the passenger seat, and the driver was from the Allen family;

Pu'er jumped onto Karen's lap, just now the wind blowing outside, his hands were a little cold, Karen put his hands into Pu'er's fur to cover his hands.

Seeing this, the golden retriever also leaned towards Karen, meaning that its fur is denser than that of a cat, which is more suitable for keeping warm, but Karen chose to ignore it even though it kept wagging its tail.

Karen leaned back and leaned against the back of the leather chair:

"lets go."

"yes."

The driver started the car and walked around the castle to the main entrance. Old Anderson and the rest of the family stood there to watch him off.

Karen didn't roll down the car window to greet them for the last time, but out of the corner of his eye, he still saw two short people standing by the window of the study on the third floor through the car window.

One is Judea, the other Borg;

Pu'er's tail raised up, and was stroked down by Karen again;

When the car passed the auditorium, Alfred said:

"Master, you said that it is the most suitable place for mourning."

Unfortunately, there was only one funeral for Prince Henry.

"There is still a chance in the future." Karen said, "I think it will be useful here again, but the guests can no longer be as low-end as Prince Henry."

After a while, Karen added another sentence:

"The most important thing is that you can no longer pay for it yourself."

At this time, Alfred said again:

"Master, when we enter the suburbs, we will get off the car and let him drive back, and we will take a taxi to the hotel.

I've already made an appointment with a housing agency. In the afternoon, I'll take a look at the suitable houses he listed. You can rest at the hotel first, master. "

"No rest, let's go and see together."

"Okay, master."

"Remember our housing loan limit, don't exceed it."

"Of course, master, there is one unfortunate thing I want to tell you. I don't know when I lost the savings passbook I brought to Wayne, so we can only rely on the money you have in hand, young master. And relying on your family's loan line to buy a house."

"hehe."

Karen showed a smile on his face and said:

"good."

The car continued to drive on the highway ~lightnovelpub.net~ and the Allen Manor behind him drifted away.

Alfred turned on the car radio, and after a while of debugging, a country pastoral song with a cheerful and relaxed rhythm came out on the radio—"Girls from Hometown, Wait for Me to Come Back".

At this time, the golden retriever took the initiative to pat Karen's knee with his paw.

Karen lowered his head and found that the golden retriever was holding a playing card in his mouth. He reached out and took it. It was an ace of spades.

rolled down the window,

Karen threw out the Ace of Spades,

The Ace of Spades spins rapidly in the air,

Finally, it fits into the gap in the middle of the road;

This is,

New beginning.
