Chapter 267: First Encounter [Part II]
After making a decision in his heart, Tang Bai showed a vigorous and resolute performance. After saying goodbye to Lilia and the little witch, Tang Bai went to Chicago with a simple salute that day. With him was Phil alone.
Everything in the city is in Lilia's hands for the time being. Anyway, even when he was there, these things were all left to the three of them to discuss and deal with. He's not the type to do everything himself.
The little witch Claes, Tang Bai also left her a simple photo course notebook for her to continue to practice during his absence.
Tang Bai's trip quietly did not alarm anyone, which was also decided by him and Lilia after a simple discussion. For more than three months, Tang Bai had been living a simple life, and he disappeared for a while, probably until he came back, except for the pearls, those who secretly followed him in this city would not know that he had traveled far away during this time.
Anyway, Marcel's vampires, as well as some other people who follow him, are unlikely to break into this manor to find out the truth. It's not that they don't want to do it, it's that the people they send are either unable to find their way in or they don't get back.
Tang Bai's manor is like a giant beast with its mouth wide open in the dark, waiting for people who don't know the depth and have evil intentions to break in. After losing a lot of manpower, most of those people also understood what was going on and died down. And no more such futile and self-consuming work. Most of the eyes and ears sent after that were only observed from a distance in the distance of the manor, and did not go deep.
It didn't take much time for Tang Bai to hurry. When the pearl felt Tang Bai's approach and arrival from the totem imprint. She was also slightly taken aback by Tang Bai's speed. This surprise was not to be surprised by Tang Bai's speed, Tang Bai's carriage, and the speed of the peculiar, flying Pegasus, Pearl had already seen. She was slightly surprised that it was the eagerness represented by Tang Bai's behavior.
From another point of view, it can also be seen from the eagerness shown by Tang Bai. You can see the importance he attaches to Catherine.
The house where the pearls live is an old building in the suburbs. As vampires, they are interested in this ancient. Something with a bit of history always seems to have a rare preference and favor. This is true for the people, culture, and art.
"Thank you, Pearl." Tang Bai stepped down from the carriage and watched as his hands were folded. Standing quietly in front of his eyes, waiting for his pearls. I couldn't help but step forward and hugged her gently, thanking her.
Tang Bai didn't rush to bring the topic to Catherine at the beginning, maybe he was in a hurry before, but now that he has arrived here, he will soon be able to meet Catherine Pierce in person, so there is no need to be anxious.
"That's what I'm supposed to do." Pearl smiled absently, but judging from the look in her eyes, the first thing Tang Bai said after meeting was not to talk about Catherine. Instead, he thanked her, and Pearl was still a little pleased.
"This must be your daughter Annabella." Release the pearl and retreat. Tang Bai looked at the girl standing beside the pearl and said with certainty.
is different from the impression of Annabella's actor, but the expression and demeanor give people a striking sense of similarity, and the young face with obvious oriental origin, standing next to pearl with the same dignified and graceful temperament unique to orientals, it is easy to make people think of the possible connection between the two.
"Thank you for saving my mother, if it weren't for you, she would have to stay in that tomb for at least another hundred years before I could have a chance to get her out. I don't know how to express this gratitude to you, but I can do what my mother did for you if I need to. Annabella solemnly bowed to Tang Bai and thanked him sincerely.
"To each according to his needs. I saved your mother for a purpose, and not as selfless as you think. Tang Bai was stunned by Annabella's actions. It can be seen that she is not as violent and murderous as some vampires, but is the kind of person who still retains her humanity and has extremely good self-control like her mother Pearl.
"Either way, you've done what I've been thinking about for thirty years." Tang Bai's straightforwardness made Annabella feel more relaxed. Tang Bai didn't care what purpose Annabella had in the first place, she only cared that her mother didn't have to suffer from time in that dark tomb. Besides, now it seems that his mother is doing well.
Tang Bai nodded to Annabella, turned his head and saw a look of wanting to speak and stop passing through the pearl's eyes, if it weren't for Tang Bai's careful eyes, he might have ignored it directly. After thinking about it for a while, his eyes followed Pearl and Annabella to unconsciously look left and right, and when the two of them were a little nervous, Tang Bai suddenly opened his mouth and said to Pearl: "If you need it, I can prepare a potion for Annabella." ”
"Really?" Hearing this, a touch of joy suddenly appeared on Pearl's face. In this case, she knew very well what the elixir in Tang Bai's mouth was. Obviously, Tang Bai's guess just now guessed her mind. As a mother, I can't help but think more about my daughter.
The moment they become vampires, the way they think about things and the troubles they feel are very different from when they were humans. Eternal life does not require them to worry about food and money, nor do they have to carry the pressures and hardships of human life.
But they need to be more aware of their safety. They know very well what their identities mean in this day and age when they are revealed. If possible, Pearl is of course willing to give her daughter a little more ability to protect herself.
"Of course. You did what I wanted you to do, and you deserved it. Tang Bai spread his hands.
Tang Bai and Pearl entered the house together, and Phil, who was led by Annabella, took Pearl to the room that Pearl had prepared for him. Tang Bai in the living room casually picked up two clean cups from the table, opened the wine cabinet placed in the corner, took out a bottle of wine from it, flicked the cork, poured wine into the two empty glasses in his hand, and walked to Pearl and handed over a glass.
After Pearl reached out and took the wine glass handed over by Tang Bai, Tang Bai raised his head and drained the amber wine in his glass, smacked his lips and asked, "Does Catherine know about my arrival?" (To be continued......)
