"I'm afraid your money has not been stolen." Bella said.
"It was not stolen? How can that be less?" The little old man said, beardOneMove the ground.
Bella pointed to the bottom of his bag: "There is a hole there, and the money just put in has been leaked again."
The little old man was stunned and quickly grabbed the bottom of the bag and checked it carefully. Then he laughed and said, "It turned out that it was not stolen, but leaked! Haha, I can't stop looking for it every day, little girl, young man, thank you two!" With that, he put the money bag back in his arms, bent down to pick up the three coins from the ground, and held them tightly.In the palm of his hand, he hesitated for a long time before he took out two of his fingers and put them in the hands of Edward and Bella respectively. "You worked hard all night and helped me find the reason for the loss of money. This is a thank you gift to you. Thank you! You have a good conscience and are beautiful. It's really suitable to be together. Yesterday, I begged a young man to help me find money, but he was so bad that he refused me, a helpless lonely old man, and scolded me with swear words. I had no choice but to discipline him once on behalf of his parents. Now I'm leaving. You are so kind, and everything will go well in the future.
Bella hurriedly asked, "Where are you going?"
The little old man smiled and said:"The old money fan originally liked to keep in the room and count money, but that night a horrible guy came, and I felt the terrible momentum from afar and ran away with the bag. Later, I wanted to go back, but I couldn't go back because I didn't have enough money. Now that I have found the money, I can go back to sew the bag and continue to count the money. As he said, he pointed to the direction of the old library and disappeared.
Bella stayed for a while before saying, "Is this a solution? But why do I feel like something is missing?"
Edward took her slowly to the outside of the building. The sun had just risen, and it was a rare sunny day.
Bella suddenly stopped and shouted, "Ah! It's over! I forgot to call Charlie last night. If I don't go home at night, I will definitely be skinned by Charlie!"Her miserable voice echoed in the silence of the morning.
Fortunately, Charlie didn't come back all night. After listening to his phone recording, Bella knew that there seemed to be some trouble in the forest in the town. He rushed to deal with the case.
Maybe it's really auspicious recently, and I haven't been caught by Charlie twice in a row. While Bella was happy, she took a shower as fast as possible and yawned to go to bed.
She was still sleeping when Edward called. Fortunately, there was a phone beside her bed, which saved her from the pain of getting out of bed.
"Hello?" Bella said in a daze, not very sober yet.
"Are you still sleeping?" Edward's voice has always been so beautiful.
"Of course, I haven't slept all night. Aren't you sleepy?" Bella complained.
Edward smiled and said, "We...don't have to sleep."
Only then did Bella wake up a little: "Don't sleep in the coffin?"
The smile in Edward's voice became stronger: "Where did you see that we slept in a coffin? Haven't you come to my house?"
"That's right... I'm a little sleepy. What's the matter? What time is it now?" Bella turned over while yawning, and the microphone was pulled for a long time.
"It's afternoon tea time. I'm just calling to confirm what time you can come out at night."Edward said.
"Come out?"
"You haven't forgotten, have you? Our spring ball." Edward reminded.
"Oh, we still have to catch ghosts. ... By the way, what was the name of the ghost yesterday? It looks quite interesting. You even gave us a thank-you gift. It's just that I don't know where the coin is.A hundred lifetimesThe money, the pattern on it was strange, and Bella casually put it in her pocket.
"It's probably a money fan. I heard Carlyle say before that money fans like to keep money the most. Once they lose money, they will look for it everywhere in a panic. If he is occasionally encountered by humans, he will also take the initiative to ask for human help.PersonIf they help him, sometimes they may get a coin as a thank you gift. Edward said.
Bella stretched out in the warm quilt: "Where can I spend that kind of money? ...He said that he taught a lesson to a boy who refused to help on the first day. It should be Mike, right?"
"Yes. If people refuse the request of a money fan, it will be angry and punish the other party, which is also one of its habits. Edward always answers questions, and the master's patience is vividly reflected.
"I was so nervous yesterday. It turned out to be such a talkative ghost. If only the ghosts to be caught in the future were like this,... What time does the ball start?"
."It's half o'clock."
"How about you pick me up after seven o'clock?" As she talked on the phone for a long time, Bella's mind gradually became clear.
"Seven o'clock? So early?"
"We're not going to the ball, we're going to catch ghosts. It's better to go to see the terrain early... Otherwise, what time do you think is appropriate?"
"As long as you can get up, seven o'clock is fine." I don't know what Edward thought of.Smile in a low voice, "Don't let me see a bedridden ghost at a time like today, or we'll catch him together."
Bella was stunned for a moment and waited for a reaction.When he was joking that he might be bedridden, Edward had hung up the phone, and there was a "beep" sound from the microphone.
"Bad master, stinky fox! Humph!" Bella threw the microphone, regardless of whether it was buttoned on the base or not, and pulled the quilt to her head angrily.
At 7 p.m., Edward drove downstairs on time.
Bella waved to him through the window, signaling him to come in.
Edward smiled, and the next second he came to Bella's side.
"Charlie is not here?"
"When I came back, I received a recording of his phone call, saying that he was going to investigate some case in the forest and didn't come back all night.I thought I was going to be scolded this time. Charlie is a workaholic. He doesn't have dinner with me for almost nine out of ten days, and doesn't come back at night for three or four days. Bella said. She was wearing an ordinary shirt and jeans and was combing her hair in front of the mirror.
"You just wear this?" Edward frowned slightly.
"What's the matter?" Bella pulled her hair back and looked back at Charlie puzzledly.
"Lovely princess, you don't seem to realize that we are going to the ball this time. The girls at the ball all dressed up and wore beautiful clothes. Edward said.
"Aren't we going to catch ghosts? What if you put on those unsteady skirts and delay your business?" Bella said, put the comb on the table, and casually took off the coat from the hanger and put it on. "Well, let's go."
Edward looked at her and smiled helplessly.
When the two people arrived at school, it was too early for no students to arrive at all.
Bella moved her hands and feet and was about to jump out of the car. Edward reached out and pressed her: "What's the hurry?"
"Isn't it to check the surrounding environment or something? Check if there is any abnormality?" Bella said, "I think it's written like this in those detective dramas. Be prepared."
Edward burst into laughter: "Why are you... so cute?"
"Huh?" Bella opened her eyes wide.
"It's nothing." Edward shook his head, "If you want to walk, I'll accompany you." After saying that, Bella hurriedly followed him.
"Why haven't I seen your big dog recently?" Edward asked casually.
"It's probably still with Jacob and the others now, right? I've been addicted to it since the last fight, and I run there to fight every day. Bella said.
"I thought you would bring it." Edward said.
"Anyway, we came here in the name of attending the ball, but we brought a big dog. It doesn't seem to be good?But don't worry, I have my own way to contact it. When the situation is critical, it will come back to me in a few seconds.
"How many seconds? So fast?" Edward was very surprised. Vampires are famous for their speed and strength, but it is still impossible to get to Bella from anywhere in Foxne in a few seconds. "Does it have a good relationship with that werewolf now?"
"Maybe? I'm not very clear either. I rarely ask about its relationship with other races.
The two walked slowly around the campus twice. Edward said, "Although there may be more than one ghost to face tonight, you don't have to worry. Emmett and Alice will help us."
"Will they also come?" Bella was in a big accident. Anyway, this matter has nothing to do with them. They can completely stand by and watch. And when she saw Rosalie in the restaurant before, she obviously didn't like herself at all.
"Well, they haven't found a suitable activity for a long time, so I plan to come here to see if it's fun." Edward said quite easily.
