Artoria froze as if she had pressed the pause button, and stood still.

A "madam" made Charles's brain turn quickly, and he immediately thought of several possibilities.

One possibility is that Artoria returned to the East a hundred or two years ago, married someone, and eventually returned to the kingdom of Rurik after her husband's death due to longevity.

Another possibility is that the "Madame" in the mouth of Old Madame Rozanna is another summoned Artoria of the same name, and this Artoria and her master are in seclusion, and it happens that Old Madame Rozanna knows them.

The third possibility is that Old Madame Rosanna is much older than she claims, that she knew Artoria more than three hundred years ago, and that she knows something that no one else knows.

Whatever the possibility, calming down Old Lady Rosanna is the first priority now.

So she waved the servant and butler away, closed the door, and cast several layers of soundproofing magic.

He gently took the old lady Rosanna's hand and pulled her to the sofa and sat down, and after he had taken a seat beside her, he beckoned Artoria, who had not yet come to her senses, to sit down on the other side of the old lady.

After the three of them sat in a row, Charles said to Old Lady Rosanna, "Old Lady, have you seen this kind of Artoria before, and are you sure that you have not recognized the wrong person?"

Old Madame Rosanna already knew Charles's identity, she wiped her tears, and said, "I have lived with the lord and the lady for ten years, and I will not admit my mistake." ”

"The lord said, Madame will never grow old. ”

"Although Madame's appearance is a little more mature than before, Madame's hairstyle is not wrong. ”

Charles glanced at the top of Artoria's head and saw that the dull hair had changed to the shape of a question mark.

Charles asked, "Old lady, when did you live with the lady you spoke of?"

Old Madame Rosanna replied, "I am almost a hundred years old this year, and I came to the house of the Lord and Madame when I was seven years old. ”

She turned to look at Artoria with anticipation.

Artoria shook her head slowly, and said, "I'm sorry, I'm not the lady you said I was, but it's likely...... It is quite possible that we are from the same place. ”

Old Madame Rozanna's body shook, and the expression on her face quickly darkened.

She covered her face with her hands and cried, "I knew it...... Just know ...... There should be no illusions...... I'm sorry...... I was just...... Just really want to...... I miss Madame so much......"

Artoria reached out and took Old Lady Rosanna into her arms.

And old lady Rosanna hugged Artoria's waist and suddenly began to cry like a child.

At this time, the door of the living room was pushed open, and Fachetti walked in, and was stunned when he saw the scene in front of him.

Charles stood up, smiled wryly at Fachetti, and then pulled him away first, leaving room for the two inside.

Fachetti sat on the edge of the pond at the back of the house with a few rocks that could be used as chairs, listening to Charles recount what had just happened.

Fachetti grabbed a handful of fish food from a box next to the stone and threw it into the pond, causing the koi to scramble for it.

Facchetti clapped his hands and said, "I used to hear my grandmother talk about the lady and the master, and my grandmother said that if it weren't for them, she wouldn't know where she would have died, and how would there be a good life for our family." ”

"It's just that, listening to Grandma's meaning, the lady's family suffered a disaster, and only Grandma and a few of them escaped. ”

At this moment a maid came and said that old lady Rosanna had asked them to go back.

Charles and Facchetti went back to the living room together, and by this time the old lady Rosanna had recovered a little, and her face had been wiped over, but her eyes were still red.

She stopped Facchetti from talking, then told him to close the doors and windows, close the curtains, and open the secret passage under the carpet.

Fachetti's expression showed that he had no idea that there was a secret passage here.

Old Madame Rosanna said to him, "Go down, there is something to know to you, and please come with me." ”

The secret passage is rugged, surrounded by stones, and looks sturdy, but quite new.

Wealthy families have such secret rooms to store valuables, and they generally invite dwarves to build them, because dwarves have a very strict mouth, and there has never been a leak of secrets for thousands of years, and the reputation is guaranteed.

As far as Charles used to be, the living room, dining room, and secret passages under the stairs led to the septic tank, sealed with slime glue, which was used by pit thieves, and the real secret room was on the side of the spa annex.

The secret room of Old Madame Rozanna's house is about a position in this secret passage, and the doorway and the wall are integrated into one at all, and I don't know what will happen if I go to the end.

The chamber was four or five meters long and wide, and when Mrs. Rosanna turned on the light, they saw a white velvet curtain hanging on the wall of the chamber, and a long strip of standing up on the floor, also covered with velvet.

With Facchetti's help, Madame Rosanna pulled back the curtain on the wall, and under the curtain was a huge oil painting, a corner of which was destroyed by fire.

Charles and Artoria were stunned for a moment, the painting was a woman, who did look very similar to Artoria, but her iconic outfit made Charles immediately recognize the identity of the person in the painting.

“lily？！”

Charles's face was a little cramped.

Old Madame Rozana looked at Charles in surprise and asked, "Your Excellency the Earl knows Madame?"

Charles sighed, not knowing how to explain it.

Old Madame Rosanna continued, "That's how my lord calls Madame on weekdays. ”

Charles could only sigh and say, "Well...... The lady in the portrait is a relative of Artoria here, and it can be said that the two of them come from the same family. ”

Artoria looked at Charles, then at Old Lady Rozanna, and nodded.

Charles then said to Old Lady Rothanna, "Artoria should be Lady Lily's...... Sister, although their age gap is divided by two and is older than your old man's, they are considered to be the same generation according to their generation. ”

Artoria glared at Charles fiercely, then nodded at Rozanna.

Just as Charles pondered a serious question, Old Lady Rosanna lifted the velvet from the ground, which was like a sword stuck in a boxy rock.

Artoria was visibly stunned, then took out her sword in the stone, and the two swords were identical.

"This ......" Old Madame Rosanna was speechless for a moment as she stared at the two identical swords.

Artoria said, "It seems that she came from the same background as me. ”

"That's right. Old Lady Rosanna said.

Then she said to Artoria, "Please try to see if you can pull the sword left by the lady out of the stone." ”

Artoria was a little curious, but she did so, and she gripped the hilt of her sword with a slight strain, and then the sword in the stone that Lily had left behind was lifted up by her, along with the stone underneath.
