24 Another Poor Girl Added on the Lis (1/2)
.....
”You know my little brother Shin, right?”
Alice started to panic when she heard that. Then she look at Shiella while trying to act as normal as possible. ”Wha- What are you talking about Big Sis Shiella? Why can't I understand what you are saying?”
But too bad for her, she already have exposed herself with that reply.
Shiella cross her arms in front of her while releasing an intimidating look, as if she is getting ready to interrogate Alice for any information that she wants.
”Bi- Big Sis Shiella, Wha- What are you planning to do?” said Alice stutteringly while moving her body backwards and leaning on the sofa.
Shiella's smile curved even more higher when she heard that, then she said while tapping her fingers. ”So you really know little Shin~.”
Alice admitted the truth when she saw Shiella's actions, ”A- Actually I've just saw him before...”
”Oh~♪, so you just saw him before. Then why do want to know about him?” said Shiella in a gentler tone but with knitting brows.
”Ahh... Hmm...” Alice try to find the right words to reply but for some unknown reason she can't bring herself to tell the truth.
Shiella become even more suspicious when saw Alice action, then she opened her mouth after few minutes of silence. ”Are you interested on him.”
”Eh!? Maybe you can put it that way.” Alice is gotten off guard because of the question, so she answered with an indirect 'yes' while saying in her heart. 'I want to know if he have some connection with my Elder Sister, so I can categorized it as being interested on him right?'
But contrary on what's on her mind, her answer have a different effect on Shiella.
Because this time it is Shiella that have gotten off guard and said on herself. 'Eh!? I just said that question trying to probe something, but I didn't expect it for her to admit it just like that!'
Alice look at Shiella's startled expression and become even more nervous, so she carefully ask. ”What's wrong Big Sis Shiella? Did I say something wrong?”
”Eh!?” Shiella came back to her senses when she heard Alice' voice, but she still didn't reply at Alice immediately. She asked another set questions to herself while looking at the beautiful girl in front of her. 'Didn't she said that she just only saw Shin before? Then how did it developed? Love at first sight? But that shut-in is as dense as rock, then it is another one-sided love? O.M.G., another poor little girl is added on the list of my potential sis-in-law?'
After calming herself down, Shiella look at Alice with pity while asking. ”Since when?”
'Eh!? Is she asking me when did I saw that guy?' said Alice to herself before replying while knitting her brows. ”Last night?”
'Hmm, looks like it is fine for Big Sis Shiella to tell me about that guy's background, well it is good for me because the more I know about that guy the faster I can discover his connection with my Elder Sister Alyssa.' thought Alice before replying assuredly. ”The more the better.”
'Oh no! This girl has fallen too deep, she can't be save.' said Shiella while massaging her temples. Then look at Alice with pity while saying with a consoling tone. ”I am sorry 'Little Al' but I can't promise you anything, or else I will be unfair to the others. I guess it is better if you ask Shin about it yourself.”
'Huh!? what's with the sudden change of mind? Unfair to the others? I guess there also others that asked her about that guy's background, but she also didn't tell them either.' said Alice in her heart before saying to Shiella with a disappointed tone. ”It is OK Big Sis Shiella, I understand.”
Shiella release a helpless sigh when she saw Alice reaction while doing a silent encouragement in her mind. 'Don't worry girl you are not the first, but you still need to do your best to move that dumbshell's heart.'

Meanwhile Shin just got back in his room after shaking off Arthur from his tail. He sit on the sofa while talking to himself.

”Auntie's event will be held tomorrow night so I still have a lot of free time to spare, too bad «Destiny's Fate» server is going to be available on the day after that.” said Shin while leaning on the sofa.
Then a sudden thought enters to his mind. ”Ah! I've almost forgot that 'that strange Old Fatty' gave me a 'Mentalism Training Manual' that I can practice. But I need to consult that Old Geezer first before starting to learn Mentalism.”
After that Shin dialed Old Plum's number and wait for the Old man to answer the call. Then after few rings, Old Plum answer his Advance watch.
A virtual screen appeared on Shin's front showing Old Plum's face. When Old Plum see his disciple, he smirks and skeptically said. ”Heh, what is it little rascal? I'm sure that you need something from me, because you are only going to look for me if you want to know something.”
Shin clicked his tounge when he heard his Master's greeting and replied with displeased tone. ”Tsk, I'm not going to trouble you this time Old Geezer. It's just that I've bump into a strange Old Fatty last night and he forcefully pass me a 'Mentalism Training Manual', so Im just wondering if I should practice with it or not?”
Old Plum took a quick glance at Grandmaster Benn in front of him before asking his disciple. ”It is up to you kiddo. Do you want to be a Mentalist? and become a Dual-Practioner?”
Shin fall in a deep thought, trying weigh down his decision before making up his mind. Then after few moments of consideration, he look a Old Plum and said. ”As long as it benefits me then I am willing.”
”If you made up your mind then go! But let me tell you first, you need to find a good Mentalist Teacher to mentor you properly. After all I can't teach you about that, despite me knowing a few things about Mentalism.” said Old Plum while smiling on his heart.
”Hmm... How about the Old Fatty last night?” said Shin after few seconds of thinking.
Old Plum smirks at Shin before asking. ”Heh, but do you know who is he?”
”Eh!? How the hell would I know if he didn't tell me who is he. But he told me that he is going to visit you if he got some free time.” said Shin awkwardly while scratching the back of his head.
”Idi*t! OK just tell me what is the name of 'Mentalism Training Manual' that he gave you.” said Old Plum while laughing in his heart.
Shin take a look on his mind trying to find the name of the Manual inside his consciousness. Then after a few seconds he look at Old Plum and said. ”It says that it is called 'Four Symbol Scripture'.”
Old Plum look blank for a second before asking his disciple for a conformation. ”Eh!? what did you say again?”
” Four Symbol Scripture ” repeated Shin while knitting his brows.
Old Plum take another look at the Old Fatty in front of him before saying. ”That is a good Manual, you can start practicing it after you digested the all the informations. And you can take that 'Old Fatty' as your Mentalism Teacher, he is known in the circle as Grandmaster Benn.”
Shin nodded his head before thanking his Master. Then after that he ended the call and start focusing on his mind trying to digest what's written on the Manual inside his mind.
