"boom!"

Kevin pushed open the study door, rushed in with Pu'er, and stood up facing Karen who was sitting behind the desk, the first two dog legs were lifted, and the last two dog legs supported.

Pu'er's right paw grasped the small red sword and swung it, while his left hand grasped the hair on Kevin's neck and stayed firmly on Kevin's body.

"Oh, my dear little Karen, if you encounter any formidable opponents in the future, please don't be afraid, as long as you call out religiously, the great evil knight Pall will come!"

"Wang Wang Wang!"

Karen watched this scene and was really worried that Pu'er, who had accidentally burned Kevin's head bald, would accidentally cut off Kevin's tail again.

"It looks like those supplements are working."

"Yes, the effect is obvious, my hair is noticeably brighter than before."

"After that, when I'm not at home, I'll leave it to you to guard it."

"Huh?" Pu'er didn't joke about serious business, "I think it will take me a while to be competent for this job. Ah, yes, I want to apply for some coupons and let the radio goblin go to the black market to find a church and secretly pick it up. Private blacksmith, forge me a small sword about the same size as this one."

"Can."

"Well, because it is similar to your Arius sword, I need to smelt some fire-type spar materials in my little sword."

"so what?"

Pu'er blinked: "So there will be some little expensive."

"OK."

"Oh, my dear little Karen, you are so kind. I will allow you to touch the puppet of mine stored in the coffin in the warehouse."

Karen's eyes narrowed.

"Hey, I'm joking." Pu'er continued to wave his red sword, "Stupid dog, let's go patrol!"

"Wang!"

Kevin ran out of the study with Pu'er, and it didn't forget to use its tail to help Karen close the study door.

Karen shook her head helplessly. Kevin has always tolerated Pu'er's bullying. It feels like a big brother accompanying his little sister.

Ok?

If it is really based on age, Pu'er, who is almost 200 years old, is really a little sister in front of Kevin.

"Jingle Bell……"

The phone rang at this point, and Karen picked up the receiver.

"Hey, I'm looking for Captain Karen."

It was Ashley's voice on the other end of the phone.

"it's me."

"Captain, what's the matter with you recently?"

"No."

"My parents want to invite you to my house for dinner."

"I have something to do."

"..." Ashley.

"Aisley, pass on my regards to your parents for me, my cat is doing well on the medicine they prescribed."

"Okay, Captain, when they asked me to invite you, I guessed that you don't like to attend such occasions, although you behaved more naturally than us at the gala dinner that day."

"Have a good rest, it won't be long before we go to Dinge Region."

"Well, but, I have one more thing."

"Go ahead."

"My parents like to read the "Order Weekly" when they have nothing to do. This is their hobby, and although their research institute has been concentrating on their own department's affairs, they also have a mail room, which is full of documents released by the Holy See every now and then. …”

"Aisley, if I set up a Whip of Order squad, would you like to come to my squad?"

"And then... eh? Ah! I do, Captain!"

"Okay, that's for sure."

"Mmmm! I'm fine, Captain, you are busy, oh no, you are not busy, ah no, hang up!"

"Okay, bye."

Karen hangs up.

Coincidentally, as soon as the microphone was put back, it rang again.

Karen picked up the microphone again, and Bart's voice came through the microphone.

"Captain, my parents have always liked to read "Order Weekly" and..."

The opening lines used are the same.

Karen could even imagine that their parents were sitting on the sofa next to Bart when she called and when Ashley called.

It is indeed a blessing to have such an elder by their side to guide and support them, which often enables them to catch the wind direction in advance, step on the beat, and make arrangements.

"Bart."

"Well, Captain?"

"If I set up a Whip of Order squad, would you be willing to join?"

"I will, captain, you will convince me."

"Okay, that's it."

After the second call hung up, Karen took out the phone book and dialed the Ventura home that Alfred had recorded on it.

Soon, the call was answered, it was Ventura himself.

"It's me, Karen."

"team leader!"

"It seems that a new batch of Whiplash of Order teams will be established. I would like to ask if you are interested in joining my team at that time."

"Of course, Captain, there is no need for doubt and consideration!"

"Okay, that's it."

These three in York City Region have been finalized. As for Maas and Blanche, Cullen did not have a way to directly contact them, but it is not urgent, because there will be training and reincarnation gate trials next, and there is plenty of time. , the experience is also very rich, the two of them have long been in their own bowls.

Karen stretched, checked the time, and when it was lunchtime, she got up and walked out of the study to the kitchen.

Hillie had just prepared her lunch, four dishes and one soup to Karen's taste.

The attentive maid will prepare a green vegetable dish for the young master at every meal. She knows that, in the young master's opinion, it seems that only green dishes are called vegetables.

Alfred came over to have lunch together, and Karen said: "Mr. Dashan, take time to investigate her recent situation."

"Yes, sir."

"I'm going to Guman's house in the afternoon, and then I'll take a look at the Lemar Ceramics Museum."

I went to Guman's house to see Richard and my grandmother. Before the exam, my grandmother gave me soup.

I went to the pottery museum to see Serena. After all, Lemar once took the initiative to ask him. Although he handed it over to the captain, the captain temporarily handed it over to Mr. Eisen, but no matter what, he had to show up when he was free. face.

Karen will keep in mind those who are kind to himself and who have helped him. He is very afraid of trouble, but some troubles cannot be avoided or ignored.

"Are you going with me, my subordinate?"

"No, you are busy with your business first. If you investigate anything, just tell me. If there is nothing abnormal, it's not a big deal."

"Yes, my subordinates know."

After lunch, Karen drove the second-hand Pens alone to the outside of the Guman's villa.

As soon as he stopped the car, he saw a man leaning against the car in front, with a cigarette in his hand, smoking very desolately.

Karen knew him, his name was Duck, Richard's little uncle and his own little uncle.

As a judge, he married Judge Shu as his wife, and faced with a family of judges like Guman, he was always under a lot of pressure. Every time he came to the door, he needed to do a long time of psychological construction.

Karen closed the car door and walked towards him.

"Master Duck?"

Dak turned his head, looked at Karen, immediately threw away the cigarette butt, and said with a smile: "Don't call me sire, just call me Dak, I have read the newspaper, Karen, you got a place to enter the gate of reincarnation, Well done, congratulations Karen."

"thanks."

Cullen stood beside him, and Mr. Dark took a cigarette case from his pocket and handed it to Cullen.

"I don't smoke." Karen reached out and pushed the cigarette case back gently, "Is there something wrong at home today?"

"Oh, it's okay, it's mainly because my wife's father and mother have moved back here, so my wife will come to see them often, and I have to..." Mr. Duck stretched out **** and made a "walk" "Hey, you know, every time I come here, I feel like I'm in the prison of the Whip of Order."

"You have worked hard."

Mr. Dark shrugged: "No way, who told me to be so mediocre?"

The last time I contacted Mr. Duck, Duck has been deliberately disguising a kind of closeness to the Guman family in front of Karen, and regarded himself as a member of the Guman family. This time, Duck did not hide his true situation at all. .

Probably because he used to think that Karen was a young man and a junior, and he needed to hold his identity in front of Karen. Now, he regards Karen as a peer, or even a little higher.

Once the relationship is equal, everything can be said. Anyway, he and Karen are outsiders.

"You're just trying to make your wife happy."

Hearing this, Mr. Duck was stunned for a moment, with a smile on his face, and said, "You are right, as long as Lucy is happy, everything is worth it."

Speaking, Mr. Duck reached out and patted Karen's shoulder: "Come on, let's go in."

Karen and Duck walked into the garden and went up the steps. Just as they were about to knock on the door, the door was opened from the inside, and Mrs. Tang Li was standing at the door.

The old lady glared at her son-in-law with anger; Gu Xi

Mr. Duck shuddered and was confused.

Karen smiled, grandma, are you not pretending at all?

Probably when she drove over, her grandmother had already noticed her and was ready to open the door to greet her, but she and Mr. Duck were chatting outside for a while, delaying the time, making the old lady anxious.

"Yo Karen, here comes my little Karen, let Grandma see."

Mrs. Tang Li took the initiative to walk to Karen, reached out and touched Karen's face,

"Isn't it hurt? Are you not hurt mentally or spiritually?"

Obviously, the old lady is worried about what price her grandson paid in the final selection process.

"It's all right, ma'am."

"Call grandma, I said it last time, call grandma!"

"Okay, grandma, I'm fine, it's just a selection."

"Hehe, hehe, hehe!"

Hearing this, Mrs. Tang Li smiled implicitly at first, but she couldn't stop it, and she couldn't stop laughing normally, and finally burst out laughing.

This is her grandson, this young man has his own blood, he is very good, and not ordinary!

Even if there is a blood relationship, the elders may not like every junior, but if the elder has no problem with his mind, he will definitely like the outstanding juniors. This is human nature.

In addition, in addition to being excellent, Karen's temperament, conversation, taste and cooking skills are all in line with Mrs. Tang Li's taste.

Mr. Duck wanted to cough a few times, and signaled that Mrs. Tang Li, her son-in-law, would also come to the door, but after hesitating for a while, he still didn't dare.

After entering the door, Kai Xi and Lucy both congratulated Karen. Mr. Delong hasn't come home yet. Oh, there is another one who is not at home, Mr. Eisen, but the family seems to be used to his indirect disappearance. .

"Karen!"

Someone was calling him on the second floor. Karen looked up and saw Richard sitting at the head of the stairs. Well, he was in a wheelchair.

Karen walked upstairs, came to Richard, and smiled: "The wheelchair is not bad, it's very delicate."

"Then do you want one?" Richard asked.

"Wait until I'm a hundred years old."

Li looked at the family below, then turned his wheelchair and walked to the bedroom, Karen following.

The bed in the bedroom was piled high with books, and Karen glanced at it to find ancient books and notes.

"Pretend?"

"Hey, I'm really working hard!"

Karen pulled over a chair and sat down. Mrs. Kaixi walked in with the fruit and drinks and put the things down. Mrs. Kaixi smiled and said:

"You talk, don't bother you anymore."

After speaking, Mrs. Kaixi kindly helped to close the door.

Mothers naturally like to play with their sons and good peers.

"By the way, there is something I want to give you. Didn't you ask me to give you the key to the Rubik's Cube last time? You can't use that. I stole a copy from my grandpa's study that he taught to his close students. A type of Rubik's Cube key, but a low-end version."

With that said, Richard stretched his finger to the bookshelf next to him, and a white thread shot out from his wrist. After sticking to a book, he pulled it out and dropped it into his hand.

"Is it the ability of that bug?"

"Yes, you may not believe it. Every time I get beaten by my dad, I can clearly sense that the fusion between me and the bug is improving significantly. The harder the beating, the more obvious the improvement."

"It's very good. Being beaten can also improve your strength. If others have this kind of treatment, they will wake up laughing when they dream."

"Heh, heh."

Richard handed the book to Karen, Karen took it and said, "Thank you."

"You're welcome."

"By the way, I have something to tell you in advance. This final selection is in the form of groups."

"I know, I've read the newspaper. This morning, I kept poking my finger at your photo in the newspaper. I poked so much that I accidentally poked a hole."

"Next, there will be new trends above. I am going to form my own whip of order team. The five members of my team who participated in the final selection will all join my team without any accident."

"Hmm, then what?"

"Come on too, you are a non-staff member, and you don't account for the Hound's team. In theory, it can be easily recruited."

Hearing this, Richard took a deep breath and let it out slowly, saying, "Actually, my grandfather told me about this last night, and my mother told me again this morning. They want me to join you. This Whip of Order team will definitely attract attention and even become an ace, and entering it will be of great benefit to future personal development.”

What Ashley and Bart's parents know, it makes no sense that the Gumans don't.

"So, are you waiting for me to say it?"

Richard shook his head,

road:

"No, I didn't intend to tell you that, Karen, I don't want to be a burden to you anymore. I'm lazy and face-saving, not only like to talk big, but also get a little bit of morality from time to time.

As a brother, you should help me once and I should help you once, instead of me being carried on your shoulders all the time, this is not right. "

Karen looked at Richard, the catalog musing.

Richard thought it was his own words that touched Karen, but in fact Karen was thinking, how can I get your dad in if you don't join the team?

No matter which Whiplash of Order team would refuse to join the Lord Judge, that is, Captain Neo, who was very polite every time he spoke to Memphis.

"Richard, I never saw you as a burden to me."

"I know you don't see me that way."

"But there's nothing you can do about it, you probably won't be able to be as good as me in your life."

Richard: "..."

"In this life, I'll probably have to help you, and you can rarely help me because you don't have the ability."

Richard: "..."

"So, either join the team or stop being brothers."

"Are you kidnapping me morally?"

"I don't need to kidnap you morally, because before I came to your house, I met your father, and your father has already agreed to this matter. I believe that if you reject me now, it will not be long before you see your dear old father. at your bedroom door."

Richard shuddered.

"Karen, how can you do this, I'm brothers with you, and you even contacted my dad secretly, preferring my dad."

"I'm not biased, I'm just neutral."

"You know that I can't beat my dad, but you remain neutral by the side, which is actually favoring my dad."

"Join in, don't be hypocritical."

"Then I'll be in charge of logistics?"

"it is good."

"Okay, I'll join in."

Richard opened his arms to Karen, looking for a hug.

Karen got up, went to the cabinet, picked up a glass of juice, took a sip, and frowned,

"Does your mother like to put sugar in juice?"

"Yes, she also likes to watch me drink happily. I have to cooperate every time to satisfy her self-motivation of showing motherly love."

At this time, a black crow flew in through the window.

"My dad's crow." Richard raised his arm to stop the crow, but the crow flew past him and stopped on Karen's shoulder, "Hey, is it looking for you?"

"It seems that your father came to ask me if you have agreed to join the team."

Karen grabbed the crow and read the message:

"Here comes from the pottery museum."

Karen folded the crow paper, but found that the paper already had traces of two folds;

But Karen didn't look into this, maybe Mr. Eisen felt that the first one was not perfect, so he folded it again.

"Richard, I have something to do. I have to go first."

...

"It's here~lightnovelpub.net~ I've been waiting for you to come and find me since last time."

Inside the car, the fat man sitting in the driver's seat looked back at the girl who was dozing off in the back seat, and said:

"This time, we will definitely be able to get the Yilmaz Knife!"

Philomena opened her eyes slightly, turned her head to look at the pottery museum, and saw Memphis standing up from the glass door and walking towards the door.

"Ugh."

Philomena sighed,

Reaching out and grabbing the neck of the fat man in the driver's seat,

With a "click" sound, it was directly twisted off.

Then her figure turned into a black mist,

escape.

——

Also at night.
