Hobert's answer stunned Benson, who unconsciously touched his pocket watch.
"Sorry, I might have reminded you of sothing sad." Hobert smiled apologetically, "But only by telling you the truth can you imdiately understand why I invited you here as well. Going out for a walk might change your mood."
Benson was silent for a long while before saying, "He, he..."
"He saved Tingen," Hobert said, "I was by his side at the ti."
Benson fell silent again.
Hobert added, "The deceased are gone, and the living must live well."
"Although I've had so issues recently, I still have so connections in Backlund. If you need help in Backlund, you can write to or send a telegram."
As he spoke, he wrote down the address of the law firm. Even if he left Backlund in the future, he planned to use Jessica to establish a base for himself in the firm.
Therefore, the recipient Hobert left was Jessica.
Benson put away the address. After a long while, he began to talk to Hobert about the scenery of Backlund.
As Benson said, they were both adults, and so emotions and words didn't need to be expressed. It was enough to understand in their hearts.
They first found a place for lunch and then began their Backlund tour.
The first stop was Order Square, the large square in front of the Bell of Order. In addition to the statue of "Protector" William I and the tall Bell of Order, the most famous thing here is that the pigeons here are not afraid of people.
After seeing the statue, hearing the chis, and feeding the pigeons, Hobert took them to the second stop: the Loen Kingdom Museum.
It is said that this museum has a long history of more than a thousand years, and it also houses exhibits such as the flags and dals of the "War of Broken Oath."
Honestly, these exhibits were nothing special to look at. It wasn't until they entered the colonial era exhibition area that things beca interesting.
The museum has too many cultural relics and archaeological discoveries from the Rorsted Archipelago and East Balam, as well as items representing the customs and habits of these places.
Especially the exhibits from East Balam, with cultures and styles completely different from those of the Northern Continent, broadened Elizabeth's and others' horizons.
By the ti they ca out of the museum, it was already past five in the afternoon. Hobert arranged everyone's als and asked everyone for suggestions.
Donna suggested, "Let's go to the Intis restaurant. It is said that the catering style there is very special, and you can also taste so dishes invented by Emperor Roselle."
Hobert thought: A big question mark should be placed on the word 'invented'!
Donna and Tyron had long wanted to have a al at the Intis restaurant, but Hobert had never had ti to take them.
Today, Hobert was generous and took them to the Intis restaurant.
This restaurant is considered a mid-to-high-end restaurant in Backlund. The decoration here is basically gold, full of exotic atmosphere.
Hobert thought it was a bit tacky, like a nouveau riche, as if eager for others to know how much gold they had.
As for the dishes, Hobert was quite satisfied. Although so dishes had obviously been modified, so of Roselle's "invented" dishes still had so flavor of "ho cooking."
While everyone was comnting on these exotic dishes, Hobert saw that chestnut hair again. It was Bernadette.
Today, she was wearing an olive-green dress, which looked less dignified than the last ti they t and more girlish.
What a coincidence, running into her here again.
Actually, it's not a coincidence. This might be her property. Even if it isn't, her taste should be more inclined to the Intis style, so it's normal to co here to eat.
Bernadette also noticed Hobert's gaze and looked over at Hobert.
Hobert smiled slightly at her. Bernadette seed to rember where she had seen Hobert and nodded politely at Hobert.
Just as he was about to continue eating, Hobert suddenly thought that it didn't seem so abrupt to say hello to Bernadette now.
Although it had the suspicion of hitting on her, Bernadette, who was born in the open Republic of Intis, shouldn't mind.
If he said a few words to her this ti, he could chat a few more words next ti they t. Wouldn't they beco familiar after eting a few tis?
At this ti, Hobert realized, why would Uncle Hobert have so many concerns about getting to know a junior?
But then he felt a little discouraged. Why else would he be asking Bernadette for sothing, wanting to borrow her "Genie"? Otherwise, he could completely pretend not to know her, just like "Uncle Zhou."
Thinking of this, Hobert said to Elizabeth and the others, "I've t an acquaintance. I'll go over and say a few words."
He picked up his wine glass and walked towards Bernadette, who was almost at the other end of the restaurant: "Beautiful lady, we et again."
"It seems that the news published in the newspaper is not true enough." Bernadette didn't seem surprised by Hobert's arrival: "Lawyer Hobert can't possibly have anything to do with those street prostitutes, because your way of hitting on ladies is very old-fashioned."
Hobert twitched the corner of his mouth and was actually ridiculed by this little girl: "How do you know who I am?"
"I just know." Bernadette smiled mysteriously.
Hobert thought that saying a few words would be enough: "It seems that the lady doesn't welco n with no experience in hitting on her, so I'll take my leave. I wish you a pleasant al."
"I'm occasionally interested in inexperienced n." Bernadette smiled, "Please sit down, let's chat for a while."
Why did he feel like he was being teased by this little girl?
But Hobert still sat down opposite her: "To be honest, your style of dress is very unconventional."
"Thank you."
Hobert: I'm not complinting you.
Bernadette took a sip of tea: "I know that you are a person with so magical powers, and I also have so magical powers. I don't think we need to hide anything in this regard."
Hobert nodded, realizing that she might be looking for him for sothing.
"One of my abilities is that I can hear so secret information through so secret channels or existences." Bernadette looked at Hobert: "I heard that a secret existence called 'The Creator of Human Order' is awakening."
Hobert imdiately felt a chill all over his body: It's over, I've been exposed!
This was the first ti Hobert had felt such a strong sense of crisis in his heart. In fact, if it weren't for borrowing the "Genie", he wouldn't be willing to have any contact with Bernadette.
Because Hobert and Roselle were both Beyonders of the "Black Emperor" pathway, there might be unavoidable conflicts in the future, and he would probably be an enemy of Bernadette.
But he never expected that his hidden identity would be revealed by Bernadette like this!
Bernadette saw Hobert's expression and smiled slightly: "After eting you last ti, I realized that there seed to be so mysterious connection between you and 'The Creator'. Now it seems that my insight and interpretation of your destiny is correct."
Damn! You scared .
Hobert realized that Bernadette had at most discovered a secret connection between his destiny and "The Creator", and it was impossible for her to know that he was "The Creator".
