Section 124 High key

(5.19 1st Update)

The petty bourgeois layout of the farm still retains the old structure. The building on the rue de Verm is just missing its former glory, with an open fence and a slightly extraordinary affinity.

"Count, it is this familiar smell, the fountain that waters the flame of vengeance, nourishes my taste buds that are about to fade, the impulse that wanders on my tongue, and swears that I am reinvented."

The majestic breeze of the early morning, even on a summer day, will bring coolness, and the hair that has been blown away will get free and easy comfort.

The clueless white is at the forefront, and the killing of late-night horror stories is still vaguely echoing in his ears, but he is restrained by the humming song in the pleasure of being satisfied, and his shocked heart is blinded.

"Restrain your impulsive impulses, the world of the day is reserved for the process of daily visits, and the night is the duel between ice and fire, don't expose your high-profile character too early."

Si Qi's booing gesture reminded Shiro, who was a little carried away, and also allowed me to maintain a balanced vigilance. The introduction of Ju will not be mixed with false elements, and the words of the outside world alone can portray a thorny head full of thorns, and he must be a respectable opponent, even if it may be a bargaining chip for life and death.

"Who are you?" There is only the transmission of sound, but there is no fiction of sight, like an auditory hallucination detached from reality, but it is indeed very close, as if it is close at hand.

An emaciated figure suddenly squeezed out of the dense wheat forest, a hunchbacked farmer was crawling away pests, and there were traces of creatures on clothes encroached on by the mud.

"Who are you?"

The vigilant Si Qi still chooses to be a safe anti-guest, and the story of last night's horror may also be an exclamation that he has never witnessed, but it inspires his fighting spirit that has not appeared for a long time, and his clear eyes are rarely seen.

"Oh, I forgot to introduce myself. I'm the housekeeper of the house, Dale, and occasionally grow some wheat in my spare time. A few of them are ministers, and their extraordinary attire is very gorgeous. ”

"Ah, now that it's been discovered, there's no need to hide it. I am a friend of the owner of the manor, and I am entrusted with a secret job here. Tell me secretly, is Mesto lazy every day in his inaction? ”

Bai's exaggerated acting skills can still attract the audience's attention, and after spinning, he leans into the butler's ear, preemptively with bad intentions, and speaks softly to overthrow the strong.

"No, I think you must have had some misunderstanding. Adults are rarely at home, and every time they come back, they are scarred, and they must have been involved in some great law enforcement campaign. He is worshipped like a god by us servants! ”

The butler's words made Bai a little embarrassed, and the inappropriate ridicule was like a scheming self-deprecation. The enlarged outline of Siqi's eye sockets was about to take in the whole world, and it was an indescribable chill. I was aware of it, and the worries began to spread.

"Since the gentleman has not returned, we will not bother anymore and say goodbye."

Bai, who was still unsatisfied, didn't plan to stop there, but he could only turn back helplessly, slacking off his tight breath.

"A few and so on. Since they're all here, you might as well stay for a while. According to the time calculation, the adults should be able to return before dinner. If it is an important instruction, the longer it is delayed, the more likely it is to cause confusion. ”

The butler's words made me change my mind temporarily, since it was an uninvited intruder, the benefit of being familiar with the situation for escape should not be overlooked. Siqi also holds the same view. Also hold on to the steps that are about to be taken. And for the vengeful Shiro, it was an overjoyed invitation.

"Since it's so gracious, let's bother."

The butler was a little surprised by his respectful bow, but he also gained the confidence to be affirmed, and took off his coat. Change into cleaner and neater clothes. The simple action surprised Shiro, and the frozen feet were like being entangled in fertile land, losing the ability to move.

"Why, happy and sad accidents? It's actually this embodiment. ”

"It's this costume, like a black shadow, that floats in the air and shoots me down."

Bai pointed to the butler's back, sketching the ornaments on it, and his trembling hands reminded him of the tragedy of the past.

"Do you want to back down? Or is it a stake that becomes a supporting role, standing in place and watching? Take a hundred steps back, and you will be able to get out of this aura of resentment, but the revenge of the oath may have to be postponed, or even regretted. ”

"Hmph, the high-pitched tragedy is destined to be the masterpiece of my conducting, how can the Count be able to take the lead? I already have the consciousness of death, but I can't forget the tragic situation at that time, and I can't find a way out in the vision filled with blood and tears. ”

Bai's confident speech is a little out of place, and I can diagnose his blind mentality, whether he will not be able to bear the torment at a critical moment.

"If you don't catch up, you'll get lost in the twists and turns of the manor!"

Si Qi shouted to me and Bai who were still in place, his shadow had already stepped into the fence, and Bai shook off my eyes with an arrow and ran forward. Whether you are dark or light, since you have set out, you cannot go back, besides

"I'm curious, Mr. Butler, is there any need for self-sufficiency in such a vast estate? The government's allocation should be more than enough! ”

I broke off a branch that had not yet protruded from the ears of wheat and shook it before the butler's eyes, saving him from a slightly deaf fatigue.

"Oh, that's purely for personal interest, and the Lord gave me that piece of land, and he seems to be absent-minded about everything but the battle! The daily life of the estate is managed by me, the nanny. ”

The housekeeper carried the agricultural tools on the ground, without the slightest potential of a noble domestic slave, but it was very close to nature.

"It's a small livestock farm on the estate, providing meat and fresh milk."

A meadow that is not very wide is also inhabited by poultry that need to be tied in cages and chains. Wild boars with black manes, bulls whose horns have been smoothed out, can only stagger forward in the sun. A few antelopes that have not yet been tamed, tugging at the tight ropes, yearning for freedom but unable to do anything.

There is always something missing in the scene of abundance, but it is not possible to summarize the edges and corners that have been omitted.

"Is there only one manager in the manor?"

Si Qi's words woke me up with doubts, and aside from the solemn exterior, there were no other slaves walking in the built-in space, only the butler leading the way.

"No, it's their holiday now, and there are very few guests in the manor, and the adults have few friends, and they are even excluded from the social circle, and he doesn't care, that's not his pursuit. Besides, the delicate slaves do not have the pleasure of intoxicating the mountains and wilderness, and the enjoyment of food and clothing is already their definition of the aesthetic life. ”

Following the butler's direction, through the gap in the green grass, the bored low-ranking servants gathered around to watch the fight between the two roosters for food, and from time to time there were bursts of shouts and sighs.

"Please don't mind, gambling is allowed in this realm of freedom, and the lords who worship force advocate any duel competition. How many of you are interested in taking part in the betting? ”

The butler invited us into the crowd, and the servant, who was attentive in the excitement, did not notice our involvement, and was still cheering for the side that had left the heavy bet behind.

"10,000 Turans, the black one wins!"

Bai took a stack of banknotes from Siqi's pocket and scattered them on the betting table, the smell of money attracting attention. But he didn't stop, and continued to look back and watch the development of the battle.

"White, this fee of yours is going to disappear!"

The black rooster forced around the corner was at a loss, afraid to beat its wings and want to surrender, but the white one preferred to end completely, not reluctantly biting the feathers of the black rooster, and the victim could only sit still, and any encouragement and abuse was blocked by its eardrums.

"That's not necessarily, high-profile noise, attack!"

Shiro threw a dagger through the crowd, the plasma on the bursting heart stained white fur, and he screamed and collapsed in a pool of blood. The hostile gaze instantly focused on Bai's body, but he unhurriedly wiped the evil qi that had just been left on the tips of his fingers.

"I declare, black wins!"

The butler acted as a referee, holding the lucky black rooster in his hand, and it also put away its fear, and proudly raised its head to commemorate its inexplicable victory. The class system makes the losers unwilling but dare not confide, and can only hold back their bitterness and tears in their hearts.

"I'm sorry for violating the rules you were expecting, and as compensation, this 10,000 Tulan coins will be distributed evenly to each of the losers who participated."

Si Qi's adaptation brought the atmosphere of the scene back to normal, and even warmly greeted, surrounding the housekeeper to share the spoils. Soon, the diminutive figure was not buried under the horizontal plane of sight.

"Cut, doing good deeds with illegal benefits is really easy to control the overall situation!"

Bai's taunt was interrupted by the butler who suddenly appeared patting him on the shoulder, which was indeed a bit close to the category of the supernatural.

"This old bone was almost murdered! But this gentleman, if you were here, would appreciate your decision, and would sacrifice any price, even dignity, for the sake of victory! ”

"Who knows, I'm a high-profile performer!"

The sly gaze of Bai and the housekeeper brewed some kind of long-lost tacit understanding. (To be continued.) )
