Chapter 133: Linnaeus the Botanist

Luxurious glass flower room.

Count Derek walked ahead and introduced the sorceress to the rare flowers in the flower room.

"Miss Linde, you see, it's a velvet flower, and I specially asked someone to find it from the Southern Crater. This flower is very peculiar, and when it is planted, it has to be roasted in a charcoal pot. ”

"Well, interesting."

"Miss Linde, look at the rose here, I call it the Blue Enchantress, it is a very rare variety of roses, if you like it, I will pick it for you."

"Heh~ This gift is too valuable, just let it grow on a tree."

"Miss Linde, look at this ......."

Even the blind can see that Count Derek is ingratiating himself with the greatest zeal to the sorceress. It's a pity that the flowing water is intentional, the falling flowers are ruthless, and the female magician is always the appearance of an iceberg beauty, not only does she not see a trace of a smile on her face, but she seems to be tired of even saying a word.

Rosen stood in an inconspicuous place, watching Earl Derek 'performing' hard, and couldn't help but recall the old gardener John's comment: 'Sure enough, like a male dog in heat.' ’

The two of them had only been in the glass room for more than ten hours, and the sorceress seemed to be bored, and she interrupted Count Derek, who was trying to introduce the varieties of flowers: "Lord Earl, here for today." You are not fully healed and cannot be outside for too long. ”

"It's alright, Miss Linde, I'm feeling so good......"

The sorceress accentuated slightly, "Derek, I don't want to remind you a second time. ”

Count Derek, who was still elated just now, suddenly looked like a defeated rooster, his face was flushed, but he didn't dare to say a word, he held back for a long time, and finally said: "Okay, since you don't like it, then let's go back." ”

"Good. In the near future, I hope you don't run around, and it's best to stay in the mansion all the time. Don't contradict me, of course you have the right to act freely, my words are just advice to you! ”

As the sorceress spoke, her eyes fell on the petals of the blue enchantress beside her, and she didn't even look at Count Derrick, as if he were nothing more than a cloud of air that didn't care if she existed or not. When she was done, she walked straight towards the exit of the glass flower room.

After walking a few steps, seeing that Count Derek did not follow, the magician spoke again: "Lord Earl, are you going back with me, or are you going to stay alone for a while?" ”

Count Derrick's face was blue and white, his fists were clenched, the green tendons on his forehead were beating involuntarily, and his eyes were dark, like a beast that wanted to choose people to devour, but in the end, he still kept up with the footsteps of the sorceress, and walked a few steps side by side, and he laughed: "Miss Linde, in the morning a fisherman brought a few pounds of rare golden salmon, and there happened to be a cook in the mansion who was very good at cooking fish. Why don't we dine together tonight? ”

"There's no need. I don't like to eat fish. ”

"Uh~ It's okay, there are other delicacies in the restaurant, such as broth from fresh mushrooms grown in the greenhouse, wild bear paws, etc., all of which are very delicious."

The sorceress stopped and glanced at Count Derek lightly, and at a glance, Count Derek couldn't resist the pressure in the other party's gaze, and turned his head unnaturally.

Purely in terms of momentum, Count Derek was defeated.

"Lord Earl, I must remind you that I came to the Blue Moon Mansion only to protect your life, and I am not responsible for chatting, dining, dancing and other activities with you. Today, the reason why I came to visit your glass flower room is simply for the sake of your donation of 10,000 gold dragon coins to the college. However, I don't want you to continue doing this, and I don't want to waste my precious time on meaningless socializing. Do you understand? ”

"I ...... Lily ......." Count Derek was speechless.

"We're not friends, don't you think it's rude for you to call me by my name?"

Count Derek looked dejected: "Alright then, I see. I'm a little confused, and I want to be alone for a while. ”

"Let me remind you again, you can move anywhere in the mansion, but you must never leave the mansion, understand?"

"I see."

"Okay, goodbye."

The sorceress turned and left.

Count Derek stood outside the glass room, silent and motionless, like a statue. Wait until the female magician's figure disappears completely

No, he suddenly exploded!

He took off the leather gloves in his hand and threw them on the ground, raising his feet and stepping on them vigorously.

"Cheap woman, pretending to be a saint in front of me!"

"Lilith, don't think that you can escape my hand if you're a magician!"

"Hmph, one day, I will make you kneel in front of me, crying and begging me to spare you!"

After a moment of venting, Count Derek turned and walked back towards the glass room, he pushed the door open, completely ignoring Rosen's existence as before, perhaps in his eyes, the slave was just a living tool.

He walked all the way inside the path in the glass flower house, until he reached the innermost part, and a small wooden house appeared. He stepped forward and slapped the wooden door vigorously and shouted, "Linnaeus! Linnaeus! ”

The door squeaked open, and a young man of twenty-seven or eighteen years old appeared behind the door: "Earl, is there something wrong?" ”

Count Derek didn't speak, but squeezed the young man into the cabin, and said, "Close the door, I don't want more people to hear our conversation." ”

"As you wish."

Linnaeus closed the wooden door.

Lawson watched all this from afar, and smiled in his heart: "A wooden door is like not being overheard, naΓ―ve." ”

While he was squatting and weeding by the flowers, he eavesdropped on the voices coming from the wooden house, and as he listened, his face became more and more strange: 'Well, you Earl Derrick, you really don't know whether you can live or die to use such a trick on your own protector.' ’

If this method succeeds, Lilith will naturally be planted in his hands, but he has no protector, and as soon as the monster assassin comes, he will be finished. If she doesn't, Lilith will be furious and may kill the Count herself. Even if the Count did not die, his situation would be extremely miserable.

Rosen felt that Count Derrick, an upstart, did not have a brain in his skull, but poop!

"Anyway, am I going to interfere?"

After thinking for a few seconds, Rosen shook his head: "Whether it's Derek or Lilith, it has nothing to do with me. I'm just here to deal with the monster assassins. ”

If Count Derek were a gentleman like Vincent and an innocent person, he would naturally find a way to save his life, but this guy did absolutely bad things and died wholeheartedly, and Rosen would naturally fulfill him.

Count Derek and the young man named Linnaeus discussed in the cabin for about ten minutes, after which Count Derek left the glass house.

Lawson was breathing a sigh of relief when he heard Linnaeus's voice coming from the direction of the cabin: "Lawson, come here, I have something to look for you." ”

This Linnaeus, who claimed to be a naturalist, was especially good at taking care of flowers and plants, and most of the reason why the flowers in this glass flower room are so colorful is due to him. As for gardeners like Rosen and Old John, their usual job was to do some manual work as he was told.

"Hey~ It's coming." Lawson dusted his hands and walked over to the cabin.

In the distance he saw the young man Linnaeus standing in front of the hut, carrying a watering can in his hand, and when he saw Rosen, he handed the watering can to Rosen: "This is the fertilizer I have just prepared, and you can take it and water the white round-headed mushrooms in the mushroom room." ”

"Okay." Lawson nodded submissively.

"Remember, only round mushrooms, all the fertilizer is watered, be sure to water thoroughly, understand?"

Lawson was stunned: "Sir, I remember that the round-headed mushrooms are almost ripe, and if they are watered too much, will they rot?" ”

Linnaeus smiled gently: "Your concern is very reasonable, it seems that you have good common sense." However, this fertilizer is specially blended by me, and after watering, not only will it not pickle the mushrooms, but it will also make the mushrooms grow bigger, rounder, and more delicious. ”

"Oh, I see. Sir, then I'm going to water the mushrooms. ”

"Go ahead."

Rosen carried a watering can to the fungus room on the west side of the glass flower house, and sprayed the white round-headed mushrooms according to Linnaeus's instructions, until the wood chips under the mushrooms below were watered through.

Then he took the watering can and returned to the cabin: "Sir, it has been done as you have told." ”

"Good. Oh, by the way, you went to the kitchen on my behalf and sent a message that round-headed mushrooms could only be eaten the day after tomorrow. ”

"Hey, okay."

Rosen pretended he didn't know anything, strode out of the flower room, and hurried all the way to the kitchen in the mansion.

The area of this mansion is really large, Lawson walked all the way along the path, went around, and walked for five or six minutes to the kitchen door on the side of the mansion, and was about to knock on the door to pass the word, suddenly, he heard a maid's terrible scream from the third floor of the mansion.

"What's going on?" Rosen's heart sank: "Could it be that the Earl was killed by a monster?" ”
