The school town of Toushi is made up of domed circles and ancient towers, interspersed with countless small compartments that suddenly appear, twisting and turning, and in a few moments, the princess finds herself completely lost.

Vanessa was about to turn back, but heard a voice at the end of the hallway, "I don't care what method you use or what price you pay, anyway, I want to get that 'sad doll' in three days!" "It's Brandt, he said as he walked along.

"But if you want, your Highness, you can tell Prince Creon directly, why should I sneak into your own treasure vault?" Vanessa ducked into the shadows between the lattices and saw that Brant was followed by a small man, trying to keep up with the prince, and seemed to be almost running.

"He's the eldest son, but he's the second-son - he won't help me for free, I'll have to pay the price." Brant stopped, "And you, you owe me a life, now is the time for you to be grateful." He walked on, and was about to pass Vanessa.

"Hmph, you're not like him yet." The little man muttered under his breath.

"What did you say?" Brant stopped again, and Vanessa was separated by a wall, and Vanessa could see the glowing phosphorous powder on his new shoes. "You have to be careful, the next time you fall into the treasure trap of a rich merchant, no one will intercede for you."

"I know, of course I do, Your Highness the Good Prince." The man corrected his mistake in time, "Last time, you not only saved me, but also saved our family, and for this reason, my youngest daughter plans to grow up and marry you." ”

Brant almost tilted his nose in anger: "How old is she, three years old?" Come on, Buell (France, the Diminutive One), put away your lies and deal with the Dionysian guards, I know this task will be easy for you. ”

"As you wish." Bunier bowed happily to the prince and turned to leave.

Vanessa was digesting the information just now, and was suddenly pulled out of hiding place by Brandt, and was about to hit with a fist, and when the careless Brandt found out that it was the princess, his fist was only an inch away from Vanessa's nose.

"It's you," Brant breathed a sigh of relief, "how sneaky." He realized that he was grabbing the clothes on Vanessa's chest, and hurriedly withdrew his hand.

Vanessa ignored him and instead asked, "What is a 'sad doll'?" Could it be that the magician can't heal Reina's injuries and needs to use magic items? ”

"He'll be fine." Brandt smiled hard, "I've sent someone to fetch it." ”

"Answer me!"

Brant looked at Vanessa with complicated eyes and repeated, "He'll be fine." Believe me. ”

"Take me to that 'sad doll', I can't trust your thief friend." Vanessa tried to suppress the anger in her heart, she never expected fate to favor her, for as long as she could remember, bad luck had haunted her, making everything she did like a headwind, but this time, she wouldn't let tragedy happen to Reina, she was going to find the 'sad doll' herself, at any cost.

"I said trust me," Brandt put his hand on the princess's shoulder, looking her straight in the eye, "Buniel has magic and can open any lock in the world. ”

"But last time he was trapped." Vanessa showed no signs of weakness.

"That time was an accident, in order to save his wife, he went to steal the 'essence of the soul' of the wealthy businessman Dassos, and was shrouded in an iron cage that fell from the sky, and the iron cage was disconnected from the magic mechanism, so he did not succeed in escaping."

Vanessa didn't care about the thief's fate at all, "There is a first time, there is a second time, he has only half a chance of success, and you, you are the prince of the land of the wine valley, you take me, I promise not to implicate you." ”

"Ha," Brandt took a step back, his tense body shaking twice, "you already know who I am," laughing self-deprecatingly, "of course, you're so smart, and you play well." ”

Vanessa couldn't make eye contact with him and turned her gaze away, "He called you 'Your Highness' just now. In other words, she also just learned his identity.

"The second son never helps people for free," Brant reverted to his indifferent appearance, "let alone saving other men for his fiancée." ”

"What do you want from me?" I'm a beggar princess and nothing.

"I just want you not to get involved," said Brandt fiercely, "I just want you to stay away from the Temple of Wine!" ”

Vanessa was taken aback by the prince's evil appearance, "Why? ”

Brandt opened his mouth, not knowing how to say it, and finally compromised, "There are many things you don't understand there, you don't know the court of the wine valley country, you can't appear there rashly!" ”

"Is it more complicated than our Midsummer Country?" Vanessa raised her chin, "Sister killed sister, daughter forced mother to abdicate?" Come on, I'm not a country girl who hasn't seen the world, I just need to find-"

"You don't understand anything!" Brandt interrupted her with a yell, "Creon, my brother, if you let him see you, your tragedy will really begin!" ”

"What?" Vanessa looked at Brant incredulously, surprised at the sudden turn of the conversation to Creon. However, she also heard of this out-of-character prince, and heard that he eats both men and women, and anyone who comes will not refuse, as long as it is a beautiful young man and woman, once he is targeted, he will not be able to escape from his palm. But the prince was handsome, and he had never heard of anyone refusing him, so he must have been waiting in a long line for him.

"He will do everything he can to tempt you with all kinds of illusions, gold, precious stones, make you the center of attention at the palace ball, if you are of higher rank, go hunting, go horsebacking, or go on a trip in his luxurious palace, and before you get you, he will play the role of a hero, a knight, a gentleman, and once he tricks you into bed, you will become his slave, and you will not be free for the rest of your life!"

Vanessa heard it and said to herself, "Men all over the world cheat on women like this, but it sounds good. ”

"What!" Brant shook her shoulder, "Are you crazy?" ”
