Red Moon Returns

Back in the city of Rhine, it was almost dark.

The group rushed into the huge stone gate of the Knowledge Library as soon as possible.

The familiar librarian was still there to receive them, and he was not surprised at all by the arrival of this group of people, as if he had expected it long ago. He didn't even need Lynch to explain the purpose of the visit, and he calmly accepted the stone box without even opening it to check it.

After sending the Book of the Dead, Lynch felt lost, but relieved.

It was obviously incomprehensible, and it was obviously useless except for causing trouble, but this book was like a magic that attracted the holder all the time, allowing him to take the Book of the Dead for himself and always carry it with him.

I'm afraid this is also the reason why the high priests of the mountain people dare not touch it. They seem to be able to understand the words on it. Once they can't resist the attraction and read this strange book, they will follow the old path of their predecessors.

It was too dangerous. After thinking about it, Lynch finally gave it away. Although he was reluctant, at least he was free of debt and could take back the miracle light with peace of mind.

Now he just had to wait patiently for the results of Nightingale's drug preparation. If everything went well, he might not even need the miracle light, but even so, Lynch still wanted to get it.

Although he was not sure, he could tell from the name that the divine power contained in this strange object, in addition to healing, might also contain the power of light. Whether it was the Crimson Moon or the Silver Moon, light must be one of their powers.

This power was urgently needed, so if he got the strange object, even if he could not use it, he might be able to find a way to get the power of light from it. This thing was very attractive to Lynch.

But he still had to wait for the news from Ms. Nightingale before making a decision. Now that he had handed over the Book of the Dead, he had the initiative and did not have to worry.

Putting down the burden in his heart, Lynch was in a good mood. On a whim, he simply went back to Villa Street, called out Mrs. Maggie and Little Martha, and took the four ladies, three adults and one child, to the Latis Kitchen in the Gray Fog District.

Although this restaurant is not the top one in the Rhine, many nobles and officials come to dine here because of its style and taste, so Diana will not feel uncomfortable. Moreover, he had promised Little Martha to bring her here to enjoy a big meal before, and today is the perfect time to fulfill his promise.

Coming to this restaurant again, Lynch felt as if he was in another world.

A few months ago, he dragged a dry hand and had only five hours left to live. Death could come at any time. He supported himself with a breath, starting from here and taking back this life step by step, all the way to now.

Now he comes again, the waiter is still the same waiter, but Lynch is no longer the same Lynch.

There are still many people queuing at the door. Lynch originally felt a little embarrassed, but Miss Diana just smiled and told him a truth.

In any era, there are privileges. This privilege is not given to you, but given to you by your status. Whether you like it or not, as long as you have this status, the privilege will always accompany you, and you can't get rid of it until you lose this status.

Lynch quickly understood what the Countess meant.

As soon as a group of people entered the door, they didn't make the waiter embarrassed. Lynch just looked around the hall, and a guest who had just sat down took the initiative to stand up and respectfully invited the group of people to the seats he had finally booked. He happily changed places to eat.

He was just a banker who had met once at the ball at the Duke's Mansion, but he could get familiar with the popular Sir Levi and the rich lady. Not to mention waiting for a night in vain, it was worth waiting for a day in vain.

For the first time, Lynch truly experienced the changes brought about by the change of identity. He was a little confused for a while, and Miss Diana just patted his arm very considerately and took everyone to sit together for him.

It was a completely different treatment from the last time. Although the waiter was still polite, he clearly showed the greatest enthusiasm.

For every need of Lynch and others, they didn't even need to say it out loud. Just think about it in their minds, and the waiter will quickly understand their needs through their expressions and eyes, and then meet them in time before they order.

It's not flattery, but all the services are extremely comfortable. This made Lynch finally understand why so many people are desperate to climb up. The change of identity brings about all-round changes, and they enjoy almost completely different life experiences. Although he didn't like such a change very much, Lynch had to admit that it was indeed full of temptation.

Mrs. Maggie and little Martha were still not used to it. At first, they seemed quite cramped and at a loss. Fortunately, they were soon attracted by the food. From time to time, they glanced at Lynch with worried eyes, especially after hearing Lynch mention that he might go to Norlin in a few days, his face was a little stiff. It was not until he heard that the three of them went together, would not live permanently, and would come back in a few days that the landlady obviously breathed a sigh of relief.

Yes, although Lin Qi was inclined to agree to Her Royal Highness's invitation, the specific situation had to wait until the initial results of the plague incident here were determined. Otherwise, if something urgently needed his cooperation, he would go to Norin, which would be really troublesome. Her Royal Highness must have considered this issue, so she set the date to July 20th. By then, the medicine would definitely be out, and any problems would be exposed. He could leave without worry and explore the wider world.

He didn't bother Mrs. Maggie. At least in the short term, he didn't plan to move to the capital.

After all, both Natalie and Diana were going back to the Rhine. It was impossible for Lynch to leave the two ladies in the Rhine. Moreover, he did not want to miss the subsequent excavation of Zul'Glasal, as there might be good harvests.

Of course, the most important thing is that he does not intend to get too close to Princess Sophia.

"That His Highness has a good impression of me, I can feel it, but I won't lose my mind because of it. I really look forward to further development between the two parties." Lin Qi smiled mockingly, "Ignore her good opinion for now. How much of it is sincere, and how much of it is just to win over me. Even if she is sincere, the identity gap is there. There is no need to have those unrealistic dreams, otherwise not only will it attract countless enemies, but also myself. It will leave a reputation of clinging to the princess, which is not worth the loss.”

These words made both Diana and Natalie a little stunned, especially the countess, who looked at Lynch in surprise: "Are you really just an ordinary civilian in your original identity? You actually understand so much about the principles of getting along among nobles. Profound. I was worried that you would be confused by Sophia’s attitude, but it turns out you see it very clearly.”

That is, watching so many palace dramas in my previous life was not for nothing.

Lin Qi scratched his head, his face turned slightly red, and whispered: "And I'm not really a scumbag. It's enough to have you by my side, and I don't plan to have any more dreams."

Although the voice was small, someone still heard it. Although a certain police officer who did not want to disclose her mouth smiled, she still glared at Lynch with sharp eyes: "So, Mr. Leviv, can you tell me about you?" What does it mean?"

…

"I'll go check out first."

Lin Qi stood up and ran away, leaving only a few low laughter behind him.
