With dark circles under her eyes, Anna appeared in the auditorium. Breakfast was almost over.
Anna squeezed her way to Belinda's seat and sat down. "Ha …" She yawned. "What's that in your hand?"
She noticed the beautifully wrapped package in Belinda's hand and the happy expression on Belinda's face.
"The most beautiful thing in the world." Belinda mumbled and moved the package away from Anna. "Don't even think about peeking!"
This suddenly piqued the interest of Anna, who had dark circles under her eyes.
Anna shrugged and acted as if she didn't care too much. She took the opportunity to steal a glance at the sender of the package.
"Ahem, Belinda, I accidentally saw it." Anna took a bite of the bread. "That package was sent to 'us' by Mr. Lohat …"
"Although he wrote 'To my favorite little reader, the serious little girl Belinda Shafik, and the friends who go on adventures with her.'" Anna coughed. "It's undeniable that this' friends' refers to me, Fred and George, right?"
"Hmph." Belinda snorted and reluctantly took the package. "I can only show it to you. According to the way Mr. Lohat wrote it, the main owner of this package should be me."
"No one is going to take it from you." Anna was a little helpless. Who knew if this package would be a cube enchanted with magic, causing people's memory to deteriorate day by day.
Belinda carefully opened the package, as if she was afraid of damaging the beautiful packaging. "Wow!" She exclaimed.
What appeared in front of them were four books with more beautiful covers than the beautiful packaging. "In the Fog." The title of the book was displayed in a fancy artistic font. It was most likely written by Lohat himself.
Below the title of the book was a large fog. The figure of a man appeared in the fog, holding a pipe and wearing a hat. He looked like he was imitating the great detective Holmes.
What was worth noting was that there was a little girl standing beside the man. Her entire body was emitting a holy halo. The light shone through the fog, and one could even vaguely see something that looked like wings.
Anna glanced at Belinda. Hmm … it doesn't look like it.
He flipped to the first page of the book and read, 'This book is dedicated to the bravest and most serious girl, Belinda Shafiq.'
Alright, that was Belinda.
"Mr. Lohat, really —" Belinda stuttered. "Really —"
"What an honor!
I want to frame this book, hang it on the wall, and look at it every morning! "Belinda's fan became Belinda's fanatic fan.
Anna touched her arm and flipped to the next page. What followed was Lohat's monologue.
"… You know me, but you don't understand me. My dear readers, in your eyes, I might be a Merlin Knights Medal Holder, an honorary member of the Black Magic Defense League, or some other identity, an outstanding lover …"
Eh.
"… But when you read this book, I only have one identity, and that is the author. I hope you can put aside everything else and focus on my words, my story …"
"… Don't be jealous of me because of my halo and throw this book to the back of your mind. Don't just focus on my personal charm and miss the deeper meaning behind the story.
My dear reader, when you open this book, you will have already entered a whole new world … "
"However, unlike the past, the shining character of this adventure story is not a handsome man named Gidro Lohat, but a little girl …"
"Tsk —" Belinda took a deep breath. "It can't be what I think it is, right?"
Anna flipped to another page.
"A sea of flowers, a ghost, a hidden secret, and a bride. I never thought that these unrelated elements would be combined together. Sitting on a rocking chair under the sun, I picked up a pen, and my head was filled with all kinds of emotions …"
"This story starts from when I received a wedding invitation …"
The story was well written. It started from when I received the wedding invitation. When I arrived at the hot springs, I found the bride's strange behavior. From then on, I began to take risks, solved the case, and successfully rescued the bride.
Rescuing the bride was the main plot line, and the story of the bride and a ghost was the main plot line. With the help of Detective Lohat and his right-hand man, the case was solved.
Yes, Lohat and his right-hand man, not his right-hand men. Anna did not find the names of herself and the twins.
It emphasized that Detective Lohat was meticulous, humorous, calm, and had excellent analytical skills. It was a little like Jack Sue, but it was passable.
Belinda, who had become Lohat's right-hand man at some point, played an important role in solving the Misty Springs kidnapping case.
"I'm going to faint." Belinda patted her face. "I have to remember every word in my head and recite it in full."
Belinda was not so serious when she was teaching History of Magic. Anna coughed. "It's not bad, but it's not very realistic."
"Nonsense!"
Belinda put her hands on her waist. "I remember it very clearly. That's the story, not a single bit wrong!"
"Then, my great right-hand man, did you see my, Fred's, and George's names in the book?" Anna raised her eyebrows.
"Yes." Belinda turned to a page. "It's all over here!
Mr. Lohat used so many pages to describe you! "
Anna took a look. "… When our investigation was at a standstill, my right-hand man, Belinda, suddenly mentioned that there were three other children in this hot spring hotel …"
"… A frail girl with brown hair and green eyes, and a pair of red-haired twin boys. They looked very honest. They were as ordinary as the muggle children who often made noise outside my house. Of course, they also had the naughtiness unique to children of their age …"
"You mean that the frail girl is me?" Anna found it a little funny. "The twins who look honest are Fred and George?
Forgive me for being blunt, but the two of them are definitely not honest. "
"You look so frail." Belinda shrugged. "Fred and George look quite honest when they're not talking. You're right, it's just artistic embellishment!"
"… The girl with green eyes looked at me and screamed. Tears and snot flowed down her face. She was very excited." Oh my god!
It's Mr. Lohat!
I'm your fan! "She took out a bunch of things to get my autograph.
"Maybe her whole family is my fan. Even though time was tight, I still fulfilled her request. I can't refuse such things …"
'… The twin boys were a little shy. Maybe they were too nervous because of my appearance. They were drooling and talking nonsense …'
"We're goblins!" The twins shouted. "Happy and confident!" I didn't know why they said they were goblins. Belinda and I looked at each other … "
Anna laughed. She remembered that Fred and George didn't treat Lohat well when they met him. It seemed that Lohat was quite vengeful.
"What else?" She flipped to the back but didn't find that she was in the latter part of the plot.
"You should be content." Belinda snorted softly. "It's your great honor that Mr. Lohat wrote about you in his book. You can tell this story to your child and proudly tell him, 'This green-eyed girl is your mother!'"
"That's not necessary. I don't want my child to think that I'm a crazy fan who cries when she sees her idol."
Belinda felt that Anna was being sarcastic. She snorted and threw two books to Anna. "Give them to the twins. I'm confiscating your book." Belinda said matter-of-factly. "This is a collector's edition. You don't know how to cherish it."
"Then I'll have to trouble you." Anna happily held the two books in her arms. She really didn't feel anything about Lohat's book. She was looking forward to seeing how the twins would react when they saw her in the book.
Oh yes, I'll have to send a copy to Ron and the others.
