Alice silently withdrew her gaze. She doesn't care too much about the subsequent progress of the matter. The big deal is that the "Mechanical Heart" discovers that the note left by her - so what? That's not even as exciting as Mr. Fool's discovery that she continued to write Russell's diary. Anyway, the only clues could not deduce the secret of "Cassandra". Alice thought for a moment and chose to eat ice cream and go to sleep. The Tarot Society came as scheduled on Monday afternoon. After "Justice" Audrey completed her routine greeting mission, "The Hanged Man" Alger raised his hand for the first time in a long time: "Mr. Fool, I collected two pages of Russell's diary." Alice swallowed back her prepared words for the time being. Watching the two pages of the diary being passed to Klein, she suddenly felt an ominous premonition in her heart. ...Why do I think I should run away now? Alice lowered her head in thought, but Mr. Fool, who was sitting at the head of the long bronze table, knocked on the table twice and said in a mixed tone: "Destiny, come and see."
Two pages of the diary appeared in front of Alice. The Tarot Club members with different thoughts suddenly felt that the atmosphere had become depressing. Of course, Alice was also keenly aware of the change in Mr. Fool's pressure. She reached out and picked up the diary in confusion. "April 4th, the Iron-Blooded Knight tastes really good." ...? Alice felt that she seemed to understand why Klein's mood was not good. She glanced at Klein cautiously, then gritted her teeth and cursed in her heart. Damn "Joker". ——Her muscle control down to micro-expressions made her lose the ability to analyze Klein's emotions through summed up experience. Of course, Alice can still tell a little bit. She can be sure that Klein's mood must not be good, because Klein will not act in front of her if it is not necessary. Alice closed her eyes as if facing a trial, took a deep breath and then opened them again, looking at the next page of the diary. "March 4th, Faceless Man tastes really good." "Fuck!" She cursed on the spot. Now, Alice was deeply aware of what a wrong decision it was to continue writing the diary. She did not dare to look at Klein's face, but turned her head towards Alger with a resentful expression. The calm expression disappeared from Alger's face. Alice saw his body trembling, and then asked cautiously: "Miss Destiny, are there any problems with these two pages of the diary?" Frankly speaking, Alice felt at a certain moment that this was all Alger's fault - it was him who saw these two pages of the diary and dedicated them to Klein. Of course it was his fault! But the pressure from Klein's gaze followed her like a shadow, and Alice had to start self-reflection. I still didn’t think carefully at the time. It would have been too easy for Klein to discover this. I must be careful in the future... Alice gave herself a warning, then she sighed deeply and explained to Alger: “No problem at all. "There is no other problem except that these two pages of the diary were written by me."
……Who wrote it? Alger was stunned for a moment, and instantly understood the origin of Alice's strange expression. No wonder... Alger was not the only one who suddenly realized what he said. Apparently, the members of the Tarot Club understood the origin of today's farce, and then cast sympathetic eyes on Alger. Normally, Miss Destiny would probably think that this was Mr. "The Hanged Man's" fault... Such thoughts flashed through the minds of "Justice" Audrey and "Hermit" Cattleya, and they were surprised to find that it seemed it's not true. "Logically speaking, you should bear the losses caused by buying fake goods..." Alice was muttering in a low voice. It took Alger some time to figure out the reason for this sentence. He realized that Alice didn't care about the Oolong Diary, but was just emphasizing that she should not be responsible for the money. Is this change in personality... is it because of Mr. Fool? Alger looked at Alice, then at Klein in the gray fog, lowered his head and cautiously said to Alice: "Of course, I misidentified the diary, and I should bear the loss." Alice glanced at him, looked down at the diary in her hand, and muttered softly: "Actually, it's probably normal that you bought it by mistake..." ——The diary that Alger presented was not the original version written by Alice, but a transcribed version that had been reprinted by unknown hands. Such a diary is impossible to recognize unless there are many pages put together and perhaps a closer look, or someone who knows Chinese. This really can't be said to be Alger's fault. In the final analysis, Alice would not have been able to do what she did today if she had not continued writing the diary, so...she swallowed back more words, raised her head and held her chest high and said: "This is what you said! "Buying this kind of diary is because you are not discerning enough, and you are unlucky!" ——It has nothing to do with me at all. Klein saw Alice's idea of solving the problem. He thought for a moment and chose to let it go. She seemed to already know she was wrong, and there was no point in scolding her. Besides, I really shouldn’t bear this loss... Mr. Fool, who had escaped a reward, was very happy and chuckled: "It won't happen again." Alice, who was still proud one second, shrank her neck and lowered her head the next second. After thinking about it, she took another peek at Alger who was taking the blame. Alger seemed to be very skilled in this business and he seemed to have no complaints about it. But Mr. Hanged Man would lose money this way... Alice looked at Alger thoughtfully and made a suggestion: "Regarding the money you spent on the diary... You can pray to me after you go back, and then go to the casino to play a few rounds." This is not what Alice would say in the past. Alger raised his head in surprise for a moment, and when he met Alice's gaze, he lowered his head again. ——He would not change his code of conduct because of Alice's slight change, but Alice's changed attitude and the sense of security brought by Mr. Fool made Alger decide to follow Alice's advice. "Thank you for your concern, Miss Fate," he said, "I will try it after I go back." He decided to try to pray to Alice first.
His courage came from many aspects, Alice's changed attitude was one, the sense of security brought by Mr. Fool was the second, and there was actually a third point that was unknown to the public. ——He heard a very strange rumor in Bayam, saying that the crazy adventurer Gehrman Sparrow was the lover of the blonde girl. Oh, yes, after Alice had a tantrum, the priorities in this rumor were changed.
