Success evokes desire, and desire evokes destruction. The pursuit of things www.biquge.info beyond one's own power will only end up consuming countless energy and financial resources, and entering the road of ruin. Trying to force a higher position wasn't a good thing for her a few years ago.

But now it's different.

Ruoyuebai was holding a teacup, approaching old age, and her stable mood had not changed much. The power and money that she desperately chased in the past don't seem to have much meaning now, and she knows very well that going to the next level of rights will not be of greater significance to her now. In more than 70 years of life, there is no one worth loving, friends have aged one after another, and finally she is the only one left in this field. Fragrant tea leaves can be worth a lot of money if they are sold in England, and things like this can be piled up at home.

If someone asks her if she is satisfied with such a life, she will definitely answer "no". But if you ask her if she thinks she's lucky, she'll say the exact opposite.

"When my life is about to come to an end, I don't know if it's lucky or unfortunate to meet these interesting guys. You can't understand such feelings, right?"

She asked the monster sitting at the table in the hall, and the white-haired monster glanced at her faintly, then buried his head in the book in his hand again, and the monster still answered her question.

"Yes, sometimes I'm glad I lived so long, but you know, most of the time, I look at the world like a fish on a chopping board. ”

Bai Ze replied.

"Where's that English chick?" she suddenly remembered this matter, and then asked the supernatural governor of Xichang

"It has something to do with Dio Connor, I received a contact from the "D-10" lab, so I hurried over, probably because Dio Connor thought of something. ”

For Bai Ze, Dio Connor is a special guy. But Shirasawa's expectations have nothing to do with Wakatsuki, just as youkai can't understand her mood at this time, she doesn't expect anything from Shirasawa and Dio Connor. She pushed her wheelchair to the fire, picked up the paper at her side and threw it in.

Bai Ze raised her head with a little sexual interest, she knew what was written on the paper that Ruoyue Bai burned, so she moved her body, jumped down from the table in small steps, and ran to Ruoyue Bai's side.

"Have you been feeling bad lately?"

"Don't you think I agreed to your request to heal these legs?" Ruoyuebai said with a chuckle, "That kind of thing is fine, after so many years, I have gradually lost my resentment towards this body." Rather, if my body wasn't so tattered, I'm afraid I would have married a wife, lived an ordinary life, and finally died an ordinary death. ”

"I think Dio Connor will surprise you, as far as I know..."

"She has already met my father," Ruoyue Bai immediately interrupted her, "In the Ming Empire, your ability is not a big deal for me, and I can also know the important information you can know." ”

Bai Ze's dissatisfied pouting may be because he is looked down upon, or maybe it is just because his ability has lost some value. Youkai are all conceited guys, and no matter how weak they are, they will be intoxicated with their own strength, especially in this world full of humans, and it is easy to have the illusion that they are very powerful.

"Then why are you so calm?"

"Because, I'm 'old'. Wakatsuki smiled back with an indifferent smile.

Despite its youthful appearance, its body and organs continue to age over time. This year's winter was still a rare snowfall, and the temperature was unacceptably low, and in such weather, it was already risky for her to brave the bitter cold to meet Dior Connor. The subordinates who have been following her are not only to spy on her, but also to be her personal nanny.

Throughout the winter, she could count the number of times she went out on two hands. The warmth of the mansion can provide her with some shelter, and now she may be enough to lie in the hospital for a while if she falls.

More likely to have trouble sleeping.

"Dio's kind of person, but whether you are old or not, I won't be surprised that she sent someone to assassinate you now," Bai Ze shrugged.

"She killed me now, maybe I'll be a little easier," Wakatsuki Bai curled up in a wheelchair, his already thin figure looking even more pitiful, "Every winter is no weaker than the challenge of a world war for me, and I have no reason to live." Fifty and know the destiny of heaven, sixty and obedient, seventy and do what you want. You may be expecting me and Dior to stage some wonderful "stories" for you to "eat", but unfortunately, my old bones have already seen the end. There are so many chess players in the world with different appearances and different images, and I have seen too many people like Dior, who only want to check and leave no stone unturned. There is also a type of chess player who only needs to look at the game played by his opponent to judge whether he can defeat his opponent. ”

"Oh, are you confident?" Bai Ze raised his eyebrows.

"Do you think Dio Connor is a chess player? Wrong, she's more than you think, just because she's not a chess player at all. In her "chess game", she also does not think of herself as a chess player. She is her own "pawn", and I have to say that she is indeed a terrifying opponent who can do this, but only when she really sits in the "position". If she has nothing to do, no chess to play, I will naturally win without a fight. And now..."

There are only a handful of things that Dio Connor can do, and everything is within her control.

"What, it's boring. Bai Ze sighed.

"Yes, it's boring," Ruoyuebai yawned, she wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, sleepiness was already written on her face, "I have half of the Ming Empire in my hands, and she only has a few mercenaries in her hands who can't make the climate." In my case, the first thing I thought about would definitely be the possibility of retreat. I also gave her a chance to retreat, and it was only necessary to do nothing. Stay obediently, and you will naturally be able to get out of the way. After all, there's no need to trouble me for something unimportant. ”

"Your father asked her to kill you. ”

"I know, my father said that because he knew I was spying on Dio Connor, it was for me," Wakatsuki nodded nonchalantly, "the biggest hint a foolish old man who doesn't know much about chess can give me." ”

"Hint?"

"Yes, although I don't need any hints. This is the means by which Dio Connor can change the situation, and that is to kill me. ”

As long as she died, everything would be solved. Dio Connor only needs to kill her, and then report to Zhu Yuanfang the news that she may have a rebellion, Zhu Yuanfang will also weigh the pros and cons, and in the end, I am afraid that Dior will still be able to leave freely. After all, stepping into the coffin in half a step, there is still the possibility of committing the following crimes, which is not enough for Zhu Yuanfang to give up the current good form.

But Dio Connor wasn't going to make that choice. Because she doesn't know how to gamble, she doesn't know how to be sure, she doesn't act easily, and that's the clue that Wakatsuki found out from the "chess game" that Sherlock told her about Dior.

Prudence, cruelty, conceit - it's all in disguise. Beneath that beautiful shell is nothing but desire, longing for power, power, money, everything... Just like Wakatsuki Bai herself. She grinned, and couldn't help but laugh.

It's so simple that you can see it at a glance. It's not going to be a climate, Dio Connor, there's one more thing you have to learn...
