Mystery: Higher-Dimensional Overlookers

Chapter 15 "Hometown Cuisine"

Klein stretched, quickly put on his clothes, and ended this morning's catch-up sleep time.Last night when he was guarding the Chanis Gate, the puppet holding a sheet with strange symbols on it scared Klein enough.As Klein gradually regained consciousness, his five senses became sharp again.He moved his ears, but he heard a lot of movement outside. He heard that his brother Benson seemed to be chatting with a male voice that sounded somewhat familiar.

Benson's colleague?Or Benson's friend?Klein pushed open the door with some doubts, and saw Benson in the living room outside the door talking to the person opposite him with a smile on his face, and sitting opposite Benson was a man named "Gaowei" whom he had seen on the street before. "A man of the line of Abraham.Thinking of this gentleman's financial resources, Klein suddenly wondered why this businessman would come to his house as a guest.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, the two turned their heads and saw Klein who was in a daze at the door.

"Hi, you are Benson's younger brother Klein, right? Benson and I mentioned you and said you are a nice young man." Before Klein could speak, Gao Wei said to Klein with a smile in his eyes.Holding the cane in his hand, he tapped the ground lightly.The cane made a soft sound on the ground, and Gao Wei continued:

"I took the liberty to come to visit today, but it happened that I had nothing to do, and I reached a previous deal with Benson. I was planning to go out with Benson to celebrate, but I didn't want to take up too much of his rare rest day—hmm , according to the customs in my hometown, generally speaking, when a good deed is done, it is celebrated with a meal."

Does this world also have such a custom? It's a bit like the tradition of doing things at the dinner table in the foodie empire... Wait, it won't be like Emperor Roselle, the ancestor of the Abraham family also had time travelers, right?Speaking of which, this surname seems to be those surnames in the Bible, which is too coincidental, there really is no "senior time traveler" in this family!

Klein was thinking wildly, completely oblivious to the strange look on Gao Wei's face.

"Gaowei, you are joking, we are friends." Benson smiled, and he had a great impression of this generous gentleman who could chat with him, "It stands to reason that I should go out to dinner with you Yes, if it wasn't for my own personal affairs, you wouldn't have to wait here for so long—Klein, go clean yourself up, and get ready to eat when Melissa comes back."

Klein responded and walked towards the bathroom.A kind smile appeared on Gao Wei's face, and he said to Benson, "It's okay, idle is idle, and being able to chat with a humorous man like you is just enough to pass the time. I am a painter, and businessmen are just me. sideline business. Today I got a lot of inspiration from your words, and this trip is worthwhile."

After all, Gao Wei said in a joking tone: "You know, Benson. The atmosphere in Backlund is not suitable for art, and the arrogant officials there want all the painters to work. In fact, even curly-haired Baboons also know that when they are bored, they should draw something to cultivate their sentiments."

"That's right, those responsible for formulating rules are like machines, they will only continue to operate according to the functions designed by the king before." Benson smiled, "However, formulating rules has never been something that machines should do , which is unreasonable, and these officials are often incompetent in some places."

"Maybe, the quality of the machine is not good enough." Gao Wei continued, shrugging his shoulders helplessly.He and Benson looked at each other, then smiled at each other.

The two chatted casually, waiting for Benson and Klein's sister to come home.About half an hour later, there was a knock on the door of "Duo Duo".Benson stood up, walked to the door and opened it, only to see a man in a coat holding two lunch boxes and his sister Melissa looking at each other at the door.Benson suddenly became cautious, looked at the man in front of him and asked, "Excuse me, are you..."

"Meal delivery." Mr. Z said with a blank face, he was enduring the intention of preaching, trying his best to simplify his words to the man in front of him.Benson subconsciously looked back at Gao Wei who was sitting on the sofa, Gao Wei stood up, nodded, and said to Mr. Z: "Please, please go back to Backlund after today's business is over. When I finish what I have to do here, I will go back by myself."

Mr. Z nodded, turned around and left without delay.Melissa, who had just finished praying at church, looked at her elder brother and Gao Wei beside him, and was suddenly a little dazed.

"Benson, this is..." Melissa said with some doubts. Benson smiled and said to his sister: "He is Mr. Gaowei, and he came to our house today—Mr. Gaowei and I today We talked about the previous list in the morning."

"Oh, I see. Congratulations, Benson." Melissa turned her head to look at Gao Wei, and said sincerely, "Of course, thank you, Mr. Gao Wei."

Gao Wei waved his hand and picked up the two lunch boxes from Mr. Z from the table.When Gao Wei put it on the table, Klein packed up and walked out of his kingdom of God (lavatory).Melissa put down her things and sat at the table with Benson.Seeing that Klein was still standing there blankly, she urged him, "Come here quickly, Klein, it's time for dinner... I have guests today, and you still woke up so late!"

Sister... How come you are living like a mother at this age... Klein secretly complained in his heart.As Klein walked over, the tip of his nose moved, as if he smelled a somewhat familiar scent from the food box that Mr. Z had just sent.With anticipation, Klein sat down at the dining table.

What a rich and generous gentleman, I didn't expect that he would "bring takeaway" here, he really doesn't look like the nobles I saw in this era... Klein thanked Gao Wei secretly in his heart, he was upright Sitting and waiting for dinner.

"Gao Wei, Intis's dishes are really exciting. After all, many of them were invented by that Emperor Roselle. Hehe, not only machines, but also delicacies. creation." Benson said in a joking tone: "Although there are some dishes in it... well, it's not flattering."

"Yeah, some dishes are too outrageous." Klein suddenly nodded in agreement.God knows how excited he was when he found out that Intis had some "Handwritten Recipes by the Great Emperor", but after being excited, he found that those meals were just a few dishes similar to "Swan Crisp" left in Intis' court. ", "Bean Cake" dessert - it seems that Emperor Roselle is not good at cooking, and he has not carried forward the tradition of the foodie empire at all!
There were also some dishes, Klein could tell from the names that they belonged to the food empire, but Klein was also at a loss when he heard the descriptions of these foods—afterwards, he decided not to touch those strange flavors again. Intis food too.After these foods have been transformed across a world, just looking at the description in the book will make Klein feel his sanity go to zero.

However, Klein was stunned when he saw the food in the lunch box.

He blurted out the correct Chinese: "Zongzi?"

"I think it is the original Klein who is talking to us. Fortunately, he has not been affected by the law of aggregation and assimilated by Tianzun in advance because of my arrival. If the person standing here is Tianzun, then he will not It will have the current performance. Tianzun does not understand human nature, no matter how real fraud is, it will not be as flawless as true feelings." The high-dimensional overlooker said to himself on another timeline, another human-like Gao Wei sat on his own body and touched his chin:

"Do you need to test again? If it is Tianzun, it is not impossible for him to pretend to be an ordinary person who is not vigilant."

"I think part of the content can be confessed." Gao Wei, who was sitting across from Klein, interrupted: "Anyway, what we have to say is only a small part. Even if Klein is really the Celestial Lord now, we can retreat completely. This A little bit of risk in exchange for what we want to see, I think it's worth it."

"Didn't we arrange for Audrey Hall to explain Baiyue to Klein at the Tarot meeting? At that time, if it is Klein, his spirituality will inevitably fluctuate, and he will believe us Say it to him now."

The body of the high-dimensional Overlooker decided this matter.

Gao Wei raised the corner of his mouth, and said slowly to Klein: "That's right, this dish is called 'Zongzi'. No, in my hometown, this is not a dish, it is actually a staple food, but I can recognize 'There are very few people about it, and those who know this dish basically call it a coined word from Loen's side... Ah, I heard from Benson, you have studied history before, right? No wonder you 'know' the language."

After eating this sumptuous meal, the Moretti family sent Gao Wei away.There was a smile on Benson's face, and he was happy with the food and Gao Wei's humorous conversation; Melissa touched her bulging belly, and found that she seemed to have eaten too much rice dumplings at noon, she quietly said He hiccupped and said to his elder brother beside him:
“What a delicious food! Being able to wrap the stuffing in the rice makes the flavors of the two meld so well! Also, it seems like it’s just boiled with water, no complicated cooking like Dixi’s pie; and it’s still rice Package! Rice is not cheap now... Klein, are you right?"

Melissa poked Klein who was in deep thought with her hand. Klein seemed to be taken aback, and turned to look at his sister: "Ah? Yes..."

"Ah, by the way, Melissa, I suddenly remembered that there is still something to be done in the company this afternoon, and I have to leave first!" Klein found a reason in a panic, and quickly walked outside.He decided to ask clearly about the traverser and Gao Wei's identity!

"Oh, okay..." Seeing Klein pick up his top hat and cane and quickly walk out of the room, Melissa murmured, "It's true that Klein is always thinking about work even if it's a day off." ...Well, but that's why he got such a good job, right?"

She changed into a new dress and was going to a lecture with Selena and Elizabeth.Looking at Benson who was buried in his grammar book, Melissa pouted.

Klein quickly walked on the street.But as he walked, his steps became bigger and he couldn't help turning into a trot.He ran across two streets according to the impression in his mind, and saw a familiar carriage parked beside the street.Klein was a little hesitant, but thinking that Mr. "Gaowei" might be a "time traveler" like himself, he couldn't help but be unable to resist the excitement in his heart; moreover, seeing Mr. Gaowei's current identity, he might be able to get in touch with More secrets about their strange time travel, he finally made up his mind and walked to the side of the carriage.

"come in."

Klein was considering how to speak when he saw Gao Wei lift the curtain of the carriage and motioned for Klein to come and sit beside him.Klein froze for a moment, shook off the thoughts in his mind, stepped on the frame of the carriage with his right foot, and boarded Gaowei's carriage.

"I've been waiting for you for a while, Klein."

"Ah, I'm sorry." Klein apologized subconsciously, leaving Gao Wei at a loss as to how to respond, and the air seemed to fall into silence.After a long time, Gao Wei said in a smiling tone: "It's okay, don't be nervous-by the way, it's not safe to talk about this matter here, Mr. Z, let's go home. Let's get to know each other again, Klein, you You should know why I'm waiting for you."

The horse pulling the carriage began to trot forward.And the huge amount of information in Gao Wei's sentence just now overloaded Klein's brain for a while.He didn't care about what he wanted to ask before, and extracted a key word from what Gao Wei wanted to say before:

Mr. Z!

The driver in front is Mr. Z from the Aurora Society, the Mr. Z mentioned in Sirius' letter!Wait, if you can let the envoy of the Aurora Society drive, isn't this 'fellow townsman' in front of you...

A terrifying thought formed in his mind, Klein's pupils shrank, and he instinctively wanted to lean back and get out of the carriage to escape.However, Gao Wei stretched out his left hand as if he had expected it, grabbed Klein's right hand holding the gun and pulled him back from the curtain. A spiritual wall was erected in the carriage compartment in an instant, partitioning the It blocked the connection between inside and outside, and also blocked the sound transmission between Mr. Z and the two of them.Seeing Klein looking at him warily, Gao Wei smiled and stretched out his hand:
"Let's get to know each other again. My surname is Gao. You can call me Gao Wei. Klein, you are a 'time traveler'. What was your previous name?"
