Chapter 162: A Grand Show (7)
"Let's do a dance, Lornais. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info" Ed stretched out his hand, and those hands were beautiful—with distinct knuckles and slender fingers. The fly in the ointment was that these hands were as pale as Ed's.
Fitney calmly accepted his invitation and stepped onto the dance floor with him.
Fitnair stepped on the dance steps, and did not seem to feel any dissatisfaction with Ed's words, but followed the topic he had just said: "You guessed right, so what else did you guess?"
"I guess it was Wicker who did it - Lighttower isn't in Starlight, and he's the only one you can rely on right now. Ed said.
Fitney did get Wicker to save Follett, but the banquet hall was on the third floor, and Follett fell out after being hit hard, and with the side effects caused by Barlow's flower, I am afraid it will be difficult to move for a month.
Ed did guess this, but it wasn't a big deal—even if Wendy was resolute in getting people to find Follett at this time, but once the two disagreed, Wendy was more willing to trust Fertenay than Ed—even if Wendy was serious now and was going to check everything out, but the more she did, the easier it was for her to just listen to her usual judgment.
In contrast, Ed is an enemy of the Nature Society, and Fitney is a friend of the Nature Society.
"What else will I do next?" Fitney took a spin on the dance floor with Eddard's help.
"If you want to know more about the Luther Kingdom, why don't you ask me?" Ed said.
"Why should I believe what a nobleman of the Duchy of Ansendir said to me, 'He knows everything that happened in the kingdom of Luther'?"
"You're playing tricks on me, Lornais, but I'm not going to tell you this time. ”
Ed didn't want to say it, and Fitney couldn't do anything about it—though she didn't believe Eddard's every word, especially when Ed told herself that he had nothing to rely on.
Ed is the one who killed his brother who was vying for his position, and all this shows that Ed is profitable in this matter - even if there is still an heir in the family besides him, he can kill one, and there is no reason why he can't kill the second. It can be seen that Eddard will not give up his position easily, which is very contradictory to his situation at this time - why did he stay in Starlight at this time, is it purely because of his father's dislike of him?
Fitnair didn't believe that Ed knew everything about Luther's kingdom, and clearly thought that it was just rhetoric - but Ed did know everything about Luther's kingdom, otherwise he wouldn't have told himself about the two apparently great nobles of Luther when he was in Shevrin's domain.
It's all full of contradictions, and Fitney needs more clues.
The music stopped, and neither of them could help anyone, so they simply ended the contest - this was especially Fitney's idea, and she disappeared into the white building and went back to her dormitory.
Ed followed him out of the banquet hall, but instead of leaving the white building, he walked upstairs, and as he walked up the stairs, he looked sideways at the dark world outside the window, where there was only a faint magic lamp, and he couldn't see the movement of Fitney's departure.
The moody aristocrat continued to walk upstairs, and then opened the door to the Mystical Society.
Pushing open two more doors, Ed returned to what could be described as his office, the place where he had made a brief agreement with Fitney.
Fitney does have a habit of forming alliances with each other's interests, but she is so uncomfortable with Ed that she even asks Ed to write a paper agreement.
Ed lit a small lamp and poured a glass of water from the glass on the table with a jug, and as he walked towards the couch with the water, the door slammed open.
"Please don't push too hard, this door is a bit of a hassle to fix. Ed said calmly, glancing at the woman who broke through the door - Sharon's face fell clearly in Ed's eyes, even if the light was not so bright - she was a little haggard at this time, apparently not being treated well when she was taken away by Wendy for questioning.
Wendy was really serious this time, and she took Sharon into the corner to talk about what happened tonight, and at this point it seemed that she was not satisfied with Sharon's words.
"Doesn't Wendy feel like she's being too lenient?" Sharon stopped talking, but finally let out a breath and grumbled - she closed the door and sat down across from Eddard, "You told me she's a very gentle person, and it's hard to deal with things like this......"
"I also said that she has a hidden side. Ed said, pushing Shimizu towards her.
"Why don't you stop her from chanting, now that I've lost Follett, all my efforts have been in vain!" Sharon was discouraged and drank the glass of water.
"If I do it, no one will be able to stop Ronais. Ed took a sip of his coffee.
"Why do you have such a scruple about Fitney, is she the young lady of the Wyzdem family?" Sharon looked at him with sharp eyes, "I see that not everything you said is right, Eddard, you really disappointed me......"
Before Sharon could finish her sentence, she looked at Ed's eyes with some surprise - she couldn't see Ed's face clearly, but the pressure on her from those eyes was so real that she had to pause for a moment.
"Fitney Freyton is a very troublesome person, and as I said, she can change all your plans, as long as she confirms her position - and the results are good today, though she does put herself on Follett's side - and it can be said that you have not been exposed in the first place. Ed's tone was calm to state the matter.
"You praised her too much! I don't think there's anything remarkable about her, she's been hiding in the flower room, and she doesn't intend to tell the truth. Sharon was dissatisfied.
"No, she's my treasure. ”
"What do you mean by that, please don't talk to me in such a tone - now that Wendy is eyeing me, and Fertenay has saved Follett, what should I do? Chris isn't dead either! Your words make me feel less credible than the weird old man in the White Tower, at least he gave me a very effective formula......" Sharon frowned, she didn't have the patience of Fitney, and more importantly, she didn't seem to understand Ed's danger, and even wanted to open her mouth to blackmail him," Aren't you worried that I'll tell Wendy about your help to me? I remember that the relationship between the Nature Society and the Mystery Society was not very good. ”
"What are you going to do? You don't have to do anything. Ed's coffee cup made a heavy sound as he put it down.
"What are you kidding...... Sharon seemed to be pondering what to do next, hearing Ed's voice, subconsciously denying his words.
"I'm serious, Sharon Janelle. ”
"What did you say?" Sharon didn't react for a moment, she looked up in surprise, then quickly stood up, her eyes fixed on Ed, "What do you know?"
"It's over. Ed said.
Sharon was stunned, but when she tried to take action, she found that she couldn't move.
"For me, everything I've told you has had the effect it should have. Ed said slowly, "You've got the wine of the Flower of Barlow very easy for Follett to drink, so do you think it's interesting now?"
