Chapter seven hundred and seventy seventh accidental encounter
Charlie Knight graduated from the Knights Academy - Mystery Department and a genius majoring in stitching. In Han Dong's memory, he seems to have nothing to do with the Department of Mechanics.
Moreover, knights of this level do not need to come to the craftsman area to buy these mechanical equipment for ordinary people.
Even if you need to debug precision machinery, I believe that Charlie's relationship can easily connect directly with advanced mechanics.
"Strangely, Charlie's standing is on the inside of the counter, combined with the name of the watch shop... Could it be that he is the owner of the shop here? It is impossible, the Secret Knight has a heavy workload. Except for the special holidays given on the eve of the Expedition, it is impossible to have extra time to leave the secret hall."
As Han Dong looked carefully, through the body of a customer, he found that there was also a short, 70-year-old man sitting inside the counter, debugging a precious watch through very precise instruments.
"Mia, come with me..."
"good!"
Mia thought Han Dong really wanted to buy something for her.
However, as he approached this watch shop, Mia gradually recognized the high-level knight who was helping with miscellaneous work in the shop... At the Knights Conference, he easily subdued the monsters trained by the Knights of Hell, which was completely different from him.
"Charlie LeBron Belmanchev! How could he be here?"
Invisible pressure swept across Mia's body.
The Spider's Eye can even see the phantoms of some terrifying dolls, floating behind the knight. As long as Charlie touches his index finger, he will lead the doll to come and kill the enemy in an instant.
The same is true. Mia half-hides behind Han Dong, showing a timid look.
Han Dong looked normal.
After tidying up the collar and cuffs, he reached out and pushed open the glass door of the watch shop.
Ring ding ding ding ding !
The copper bell connected to the door rings.
Then, a thin wire is connected to the precision gear component on the left hand side, driving a micro steam press to start the piston movement.
Through this system, the force of pushing the door is perfectly converted into energy and transmitted to a robotic doll standing on the side of the door, wearing a suit and dress and being responsible for welcoming guests.
After smiling and bowing.
The doll slowly raises his right arm and hangs it horizontally in front of him.
This action is to ask guests to place their top hats or coats in his hands.
Then a simple sorting and classified storage was carried out.
current.
A noble man holding a pure golden eagle-headed cane and a big belly was standing at the counter, waiting carefully for the old man to help debug his watch.
There was no trace of arrogance from the nobles at all. He smiled throughout the whole process and lowered his head without saying a word.
When he heard the doorbell ringing, he even turned around and signaled to keep quiet to the two people entering the door.
As the precise debugging process was completed, the noble man also bowed quickly: "Thank you very much! Mr. Lindberg, your skills are still so good."
After the man paid, he carefully held the watch in the sealed iron box, put on the top hat handed over by the welcome robot, and quickly left.
However, Han Dong saw a hint of clues in this seemingly ordinary watch repair process.
The watches that the old man repaired were definitely not only the school team had time, but also embedded some micro power sources and quite sharp multi-folding knives in it.
It is not clear what to use for.
Han Dong quickly stepped forward and greeted him politely and explained his purpose, "Senior Charlie, Mia and I happened to pass by here. I found that the senior was actually in the store, so I came over to say hello... Who is this?"
Charlie also has a good impression of Han Dong, the junior.
After all, Han Dong took over documents of more than a week of work without saying a word, allowing him to have an exceptional holiday on the eve of the expedition in advance.
"Linderberg, my adoptive father.
This shop was named by my adoptive father.
My adoptive father is the oldest watchmaker in Craftsman Street, and his skills are also first-class... If I have time on weekdays, I will come here to help."
Charlie and the origin of the name of the store were told together.
The old man pushed the bronze mirror on his face, stared at Han Dong and Mia, his face full of disgust, as if he thought that the arrival of the two had disturbed the business of the watch shop.
"Charlie, since you are your friend, go out to chat. You don't need your help here for the time being."
"Okay...I'll be back later."
Charlie seemed to be a little bored in the store, and happened to take this opportunity to go out for some breath.
He changed into a formal outfit and wore a newspaper hat to cover his sparse head.

When he closed the store, Charlie also took a deep breath, and seemed to have felt much more relaxed.
"Nicholas, what are you doing here? Your girlfriend doesn't look like someone who needs ordinary mechanical equipment... I remember she seems to be in the top ten of this Knights' Conference."
When Mia heard the word [girlfriend], her eyes shone, and her fear of Charlie was also weakened a lot.
Han Dong didn't hide anything and took out the letter.
Staring at the wax seals of the big and small gears above, Knight Charlie naturally understood Han Dong’s intention.
"Invitation letter authorized by the Steam Knights... By the way, have you been to [Steam City] before?"
"Steam City? Isn't it the Steam Knights?"
"It seems that you haven't been there anymore... You happen to have time to come out for some breathing, so I'll go there too.
[Steam City] is a very interesting place. If I hadn't been too arrogant and owed Captain Hugo a favor, I would have chosen the Steam Knights."
"Did Knight Charlie enter in the name of the commander of the [Puppet Guard]?"
"No, go in in the name of your adoptive father... Your adoptive father was once a senior engineer of the Steam Knights and participated in the design of the [Clock Tower].
After retirement, I opened a watch shop here under my name.”
"Clock Tower Designer..."
Han Dong recalled the meeting just now. When he first saw it, the old man seemed to be just an ordinary person.
But when approaching, you can faintly feel some mysterious aura similar to the clocker, an aura that can make time bend.
"By the way, who sent the invitation letter? Generally speaking, only the elite knights can invite outsiders to enter Steam City."
"Mr. Newton."
"Congreve Newton?"
Suddenly, Charlie's eyes immediately became gloomy, frowning and whispered: "How could you be in touch with this person? Be careful... This person's danger is no less than that of the alien demon outside the city.
Because my adoptive father had disagreeable with this person, he removed from the Steam City in advance because his concept was not consistent with that person."
"Well, I did notice some dangers... Thank you for your reminder."
"If things are not urgent, don't show Newton's letter when entering [Steam City] later, I'll take you in directly.
I don’t want to be related to the [Mechanical God Cult] as soon as I enter the city.”
