Chapter 183 You are a good boy
"What did you think of?" the system asked curiously in Shi Cunjin's ear.
Shi Cunjin recalled the archival materials sent by the Beilin family. Although the Beilin family embellished the family history a lot when they negotiated the conditions openly, some details that could not be changed still revealed intriguing information.
Gobelier's biological father is the same person as the father of the previous generation of the Berlin family head, so they can almost be considered blood brothers.
"Blood brothers, an intriguing title." Shi Cunjin said to the system in his mind, "Gobelier also has a brother, and according to the timeline you provided, the original chapters and energy points provided by Gobelier appeared at the same time as Fisher Greene."
"That brother is just a background character, right? There is no such thing in the original novel..." The system took it for granted at first, then quickly shut up and said hesitantly, "...I'll listen to your summary."
Shi Cunjin continued reading.
[…, without even saying hello to the teacher, Valentine simply spoke to the servant beside him, and at three o'clock in the afternoon, Fisher Green came to the center of the temple from the outer city, just in time for afternoon tea time.
Valentine's first impression of Fisher Green was not very good.
Fisher Greene has short brown hair, a pair of very shrewd peacock eyes, sharp features, and is a little thin, with a typical shrewd insect appearance.
Fisher Green's appearance reminded Valentine of some annoying Capital Alliance Zerg. He had already opened up a date, but in the entire Capital Alliance, he could only say intimate words to Fran.
But five minutes later, Valentine immediately threw the stereotype into the trash!
Fisher Greene has perfect manners. He tends to lower his eyes when speaking, and speaks a little slowly. His voice is steady and calm, giving people a good feeling that he treats every word you say sincerely and patiently.
…
…
Fisher Greene's friendly and introverted personality overshadowed his sharp appearance, and Valentine quickly became familiar with him.
"I thought you were difficult to get along with." Valentine took the initiative to fork a piece of tribute fruit for Fisher, breathed a sigh of relief, wrinkled his nose, and whispered: "You look a bit like you are from the Capital Alliance. I don't have a good relationship with the nobles over there. Every time I drink tea with them, I can't sit for too long."
"Thank you." Fisher Green pushed the snack plate a little further away. He smiled and did not continue the topic of whether the Capital Alliance leader had a good temper. Instead, he brought up a safer topic. Fisher spoke slowly in his usual gentle tone: "My brothers and I look alike. There are four brothers in my family. Although we are not cut from the same mold, we are basically 70% similar."
"Oh!" Valentin exclaimed in surprise, "They all look alike? How rare, they... they should all be female insects, right? You and your female insect brother look similar, wow, your family is very close!"
"So they always think that my personality is like my brothers." Fisher Green made a little joke, "But forgive me, I really don't like the holographic game of military girls, or the obsession with data finance like my eldest brother. Just looking at it gives me a headache."
Valentine instantly decided to unilaterally regard Fisher as his confidant. He chewed the fruit viciously and mumbled: "I really... um, I hate studying financial theory. Who understands it? Only my courses..." Valentine mumbled the last few sentences, crying in his heart: I am not the only A-level gentleman in my prime in the whole Cat's Eye, why is there family finance in my course!
…
…】
This chapter has a lot of words, but most of them are Valentine chatting with Fisher Greene about interesting stories about the insect tribe. There are many similar daily plots in the entire original book. Shi Cunjin first quickly skimmed through it, and then carefully read a few key sentences about the characters.
[……
"So every time you go home, you have a younger brother to accompany you on your travels," Valentine sighed, "That's great. You have your eldest brother to support the family, and your third brother is serving in the army. He just..." He needed to lie down for a while before he could finish his sentence. Valentine suddenly noticed that Fisher frowned slightly in confusion. He paused, his heart skipped a beat, and immediately changed the subject: "He shouldn't be that strict in studying, right?"
Fisher Green was a little confused, trying not to show it obviously.
But he had a shrewd look, and confusion was condensed between his brows, which still woke Valentine up even though he tried to hide it.
Valentine realized that he had almost made a mistake again.
In recent days, when Valentine was thinking about things, another common sense always slipped into his mind. For example, he actually felt that the life of Green's youngest son was quite good. He had his eldest brother to support the family, his third brother to develop in the military, and his second brother to live in the most special cat's eye in the alliance. It can be said that Green had opened up all three paths in the alliance.
Listening to Fisher Green's casual chat, Green's youngest son can still ask his older brother for pocket money at any time, and he just needs to enjoy life.
But the insect social common sense that Valentine learned since childhood made him despise the lifestyle of the Green children. A powerless person who can only lick nutrients from the cracks between his parents' fingers, without the commercial and military power in his hands, has no roots to stand on. Without his surname, he is no different from waste. No insect tribe will look down on such an insect, even if they have great social skills, they are nothing more than funny toys for the real big insects in their spare time.
This type of insect species is not even eligible to apply for initial review by the cat's eye system.
Valentine knew that it was one thing to think it was great and comfortable in his heart, but it was strange to brag about it out loud.
During this time, he was always confused, and Valentine was very distressed. He spent less time chatting with Fran online, fearing that his smart friend would notice something.
Shi Cunjin flipped through the chapter number, 13. He remembered that the arrogant supporting actor Evans Eamon first appeared in chapter number 5. Evans Eamon opened five chapters in total, all of which were out of order. In fact, he and VV had a formal date and met in Chapter 10. VV should be gradually recovering his human memory in Chapter 13.
"It turns out that memories cannot be recovered all at once, no wonder..." Shi Cunjin pondered, this is a very important key.
Once people start seeking recognition and approval, they can easily fall into the mentality of making friends as much as possible and casting a wide net. But finding friends with the same values as you does not happen overnight. Sometimes, the more you try to find friends, the more likely you are to mess up everything you have.
This detail of the story allowed Shi Cunjin to remain vigilant about vv's thoughts for the time being.
He continued to read the highlights of the conversation.
[…In order to avoid Fisher Greene thinking he was weird, Valentine had to continue to extend the topic, pretending to be curious: "So what do you usually do when you go back to Azure Star for vacation? Your brother must take you to do the best and most wonderful things! I've read a lot of manuals left by the protozoa," Valentine winked at Fisher Greene and whispered: "Did your brother take you to play extreme sports? I heard that Azure Star is a starfish, and half of the planet's oceans are filled with special liquids. You can see the aurora borealis at a depth of one thousand meters in the sea!"
Fisher Greene showed some helplessness on his face, and whispered in the same tone: "Mr. Feng..."
Valentine waved his hand and said, "There are many Fengs in Temple City. I haven't chosen a real family name yet. You can call me Valentine first."
Most male insects without families will choose a surname from the Temple Church Code as their new family surname before signing the marriage contract, and adjust "Feng" with the meaning of lonely star to the middle name. After they get married, they are no longer lonely stars, so they can choose a favorite root as their new surname.
"Well, Mr. Valentine," Fisher whispered, "I cannot discuss with you any female insects other than those for which I have applied. This is the rule of the Temple. It is to avoid subjective emotions between blood relatives and to avoid inducing the emotional inclinations of other Lords."
Valentine has been feeling a lot of frustration over the past month or so due to his confused common sense. His easy-going personality has encountered many setbacks, so it's inevitable that he gets a little angry.
He put the spoon down on the china plate, making a slight thud, and snorted, "Inducing emotional inclination? He can't even reach me."
Fisher Green lowered his eyelashes and said slowly, "Yes, I did not choose the right words. I am very sorry."
Valentine curled his fingers, froze for a moment, and then lost his temper. He then took the initiative to pour tea and put fruit in the glass for Fisher Green, and said in a begging tone, "Oh...oh, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to hurt you."
Fisher Green was stunned, a little surprised, and immediately reached out to hold the teapot that Valentine was holding up, saying, "It's me..."
Valentin filled a cup of scented tea before letting go. He had been smooth sailing for more than ten years and had a lot of worldly energy. When he was twelve or thirteen years old, he often caused headaches for many A-level masters in the declining period. He had a trick of being silly and pleasing others to cool their tempers.
…
…
"Okay." Fisher Green was convinced by Valentine's noise, and he whispered, "My younger brother is called Grid Green, he is 26 years old this year, 5 years older than you. But in terms of personality... well, he is still like when he was in his teens, not stable at all..."】
Shi Cunjin flipped a few pages back, and they were all Fisher Greene talking to Valentine about Grid. He sighed in his heart, and flipped two more pages back, and sure enough, he turned to: [Valentine was almost mesmerized by Fisher Greene's narration. He had never left the French Ring Star Region and was tired of all the tourist planets in the French Ring Star Region. Fisher Greene's interesting stories and experiences were wonderful and had a bit of cat-eyed madness that you would never experience. That kind of freedom made Valentine fascinated.
…
…
"Fisher, let him come to see me," said Valentine.
Fisher Green's face turned pale with fear. He rubbed his forehead, his face showing genuine fear. "Mr. Valentine... you just said..."
Valentine held Fisher Green's hand and begged, "Take me out to play, take me out to play!" Valentine begged, "Fisher, Fisher, please? Please?" He pursed his lips, imitated the social skills his teacher had taught him, and whispered, "I live in the A-level class of the Temple, and the Green family is not a century-old family. Your eldest brother and third brother have already developed the family channels. What about your brother's future?"
"The Temple will only let me choose my marriage partner and family entertainment partner from the Centennial Family in the future." Valentine frowned unhappily, "The ten positions are actually divided equally between the Capital Alliance and the Legion." He said dejectedly, "I don't like socializing with the Legion Zerg either. They are so rigid. The Capital Alliance Zerg are as smart as ghosts. All my intrastellar travels are boring without their company."
Valentine held Fisher's hand and shook it, "Fisher, Fisher, take me with you to play. I am very important and it is very prestigious to be my friend. If you need anything in the future, you can ask your brother to ask me for help."
Fisher Green wanted to refuse, but for some reason he said, "...what about the chief of ceremonies? What if that person..."
"I'll go talk to the teacher, he'll agree, he loves me the most." Valentine was happy, and the long-lost ease returned to his face. A strange female insect who was not familiar with him was obviously a good helper for him to adjust to the confusion of common sense during the period of adjustment.
Fisher Greene curled his hands under the tablecloth, his face turned pale, and he nodded.
Chapter 13 ends here. Shi Cunjin continued to flip through the pages. Grid's card unlocked two chapters of the original work at the carnival.
But, the next moment, Shi Cun Jin was stunned.
The new chapter number is 179!
In the first paragraph of this chapter, Gobelier appears first.
[“Why are you crying?” Gobelier said softly, “Isn’t this what you wanted?”]
Shi Cunjin quickly scanned Chapter 179 and immediately understood why the chapter jumps were so large.
Fisher Greene appears in Chapter 17 as a guide NPC. Chapters 18 to 179 are basically the development stories of Grid Greene and Valentine. Shi Cunjin still remembers that there was a character definition on Gride's card: a dog from heaven, which should be the companion of Fran Janeen.
Therefore, Fisher Greene hardly appeared in the next one hundred chapters, until the late stage of the article, when all the characters were tied together and the story developed in a direction of collapse.
Chapter 179 is the end of the story. There is not much content, only the conversation between Fisher Green and Gobelier, and...
Shi Cunjin frowned and read the key paragraphs carefully.
【“Why are you crying?” Gobelier said softly, “Isn’t this what you wanted?”
It was a sunny day by the Temple Lake, and the curtains of the flower hall were gently blown by the wind, creating soft ripples.
The afternoon sun shone through the hollow tower of the flower hall, casting a patch of golden light on Gobelier's shoulders, which were covered with the holy sash. Fischer-Green, who was sitting opposite the tea table, was shivering slightly in his tea chair.
…
"Sheng is getting married tomorrow." Fisher Green said with trembling lips, "... Please, please consider transferring my brother away from Sheng. The contract provided by the general manager only has two signatures... My brother told me everything, please..."
Gobelier put down the cup, and it made a soft sound when it hit the saucer.
"What an unstable idea." Gobelil sighed softly. He raised his hand and waved away the servant who was bowing his head beside him. The servant left quickly.
"..." Fisher Green pursed his lips tightly, and his words were like beads with a broken string. Once one bead was broken, all the beads would be broken.
"Valentin's mental state has been bad recently. Last time, he had to stay in the comfort room of the Medical City for half a month before he could walk." Gobelil sighed, "Now he can only sleep peacefully for a few hours with your brother by his side. Gwen will be transferred away at this time. Valentine will return to the Medical City soon."
"Fisher, do you want to see your friend rest in peace in the infirmary?" Gobelier's voice was soft and sounded gentle.
Fisher opened his mouth and tears formed in his eyes.
Gobelier, however, seemed not to notice and said gently, "Child, don't shed tears in front of me at this time."
"When you agreed to let Valentine come to ask me for permission to open a special passage, you should have thought about the current situation."
"You know your family can't possibly have a place in Valentine's marriage contract, not even the last row of signatures." Gobelier took a new teacup, slowly brewed tea and boiled water again, and said, "Becoming Valentine's entertainment partner will be targeted, but if you are just a close friend, you will gain great benefits."
"Grede Green has no future in the family, so becoming a good friend of Valentine is a new option. Valentine is always forgetful, and hasn't Green reaped a lot of benefits from making friends?" Gobelil said with a smile, "Last month, the Green family moved to the Capital Alliance, and your eldest brother became a member of the Capital Alliance Council. If you continue for another generation, you will be a century-old family."
"Your family has gained a status that transcends class. The privileged species personally invited you to enter and play. Your status has also been improved. A few days ago, the privileged insect species of the Capital Alliance proposed to you. You should have agreed."
"Tap...tap." A slight sound of teeth chattering came from Fisher, and he said tremblingly: "...I have never thought of using my brothers to improve my status."
Gobelier put the spoon into the teacup, stirred it gently, chuckled, and said, "Yes, you just feel sorry for your brother who has no way out. You just want to find a good future for your brother. You just can't bear to see your brother lose his soul."
Fisher Green opened his mouth to continue, but Gobelier interrupted again: "Well, isn't that the case now?"
Fisher Green froze.
"Your younger brother has become the most trusted friend of the only Saint of this era. His status has risen rapidly, and he can even freely dispatch the military forces sent by the Kashi Legion to protect the Saint. The monster tide has become more and more serious. Many times, your brothers have been lucky enough to save their lives when they travel."
Gobelier pointed out calmly and sharply: "The current situation is special. As long as Grid Green does what he should do, he can even give birth to a child of holy blood. Your family can become a privileged family in this generation, and there is no need to wait any longer. Isn't this what your family wishes? Your paternal father and eldest brother are very supportive of this plan, and all this comes from your nod that you did not refuse."
"Fisher Green, why are you crying?" asked Gobelier.
Fisher Green covered his mouth, letting out a dull dry groan, and veins bulged on the back of his hands.
Gobelier said calmly: "Wipe your tears, don't lose your dignity and ruin your smart face."
Suddenly, Gobelier chuckled again, cold and approving, "In other words, you just discarded a brother who had no potential, and gained a class promotion for yourself and your family. Saint trusts you, and your brothers are loyal to you. Fisher, good boy, you were born to be a member of the Capital Alliance."
"Drink it. It contains your favorite Lingdao mangrove honey." Gobelier pushed the freshly brewed tea over, stood up, adjusted the ribbon on his chest, and said softly: "It used to be a tribute once a year. In the future, you can use the red honey to make a bath."
…
…
It was not until the sunset of the artificial debugging that Fisher Green was taken back to the palace by the guardian in a daze.
At 5 a.m. the next day, three hours before the wedding, Fisher Green received a message.
"What have I done..." Fisher buried his face in his hands and sobbed in despair.
The intelligent ring that fell on the carpet displayed a brief processing notice: (Grede Green died unexpectedly at 4:15 in the morning. He has been transported out of the palace and will be delivered to the Meng Green family in the capital in 20 hours.)]
