1208 Butterfly Boy 23
Under pressure, the coachman turned his face on the spot with the person next to him, and followed suit, and the butler, who vowed to find out the murderer, faced the little peacock again.
Lan Shuying bit a little:
The bottle of red wine was chosen by the little peacock.
The little peacock couldn't believe it.
They're brothers, and they took the initiative to draw the fire to him?!
But when he came into contact with Lan Shuying's eyes, he suddenly understood, and his heart was relieved.
It's okay, he didn't do anything to that bottle of wine anyway, what are you afraid of?
Just check it!
The little peacock snorted coldly in the surprised gaze of the onlookers: "It's useless for you to target me. ”
"Hey, aren't you going to check the wine? Let's go! He urged the old doctor.
Lan Shuying corrected him seriously: "You are mistaken, it is they who go, and you stay." ”
Little Peacock: "Huh? ”
Lan Shuying pointed to the ceiling: "I'm going to take it apart and see what the rope is all about, you stay and help me." ”
“…… Oh. ”
Lan Shuying said again: "Other people can also stay, and everyone who enters this bedroom is suspicious and supervises each other." However, I have heard that some poisons will weaken their medicinal properties after being in contact with the air for a long time, so it is best to check the food tonight as soon as possible. ”
There was silence for a few seconds, and then the coachman and the cook resumed their quarrel, and they fought to take the old doctor to the kitchen, and then the silent washerwoman.
The old doctor glanced back at the brothers, especially the little peacock, who was as thin as a chick - he had heard that the relationship between the two was not good, and hoped that they would not fight.
The old doctor stopped talking.
I'm afraid that kid won't be able to bear it.
"Tsk, he must have suspected that we were going to fight."
The little peacock waited until everyone was gone, and came up to Pan Lan Shuying's arm: "Brother, she is dead, let's not delay the time to investigate the case!" ”
Lan Shuying: "Then what do you want to do?" ”
"I ......"
The little peacock circled around Madame Butterfly's corpse a few times, playing with the buttons, his tone was innocent, but his eyes were cruel and incompatible: "I want to transfer her property, and I don't want anything else that is not easy to get, this manor must be taken...... Then, shut up the few people outside! ”
"Are you going to kill again?"
The little peacock almost nodded, but when the words came to his mouth, he suddenly bit his tongue and retorted: "What do you call again?" I've only ever killed that handyman, and I haven't done it yet...... You don't believe me. ”
"I believe it, so what's the use of you asking for this manor? Only this building is still worth a bit, and the rest of the building hasn't been taken care of for a while, and you can't afford to pay for it. Lan Shuying calmly pointed this out.
Even if the housekeeper sent home all ten years of salary, it would not be enough to repair such a large estate.
The little peacock's face was a little hot: "Brother! ”
"And in what name are you going to take it over? As the widow of Madame? She deliberately accentuated the word "widow".
Is it humiliation?
If he thinks so, so it is.
"You ......"
"Our ancestors' inheritance is more than this, I asked people outside, the original fiefdom was very large and far away, this side is at most a holiday villa, and it is about to be abandoned after so many years."
"This ......"
Lan Shuying's eyes flashed with mockery: "You'd better tell the truth, are you still hiding something from me?" For example, our ancestors are not only alive, but what tempting little gifts can they give you? ”
The little peacock was startled and subconsciously shook his head: "Brother...... I didn't promise him, you believe me! ”
"What does he want you to promise?"
The little peacock hesitated again and again, and finally couldn't resist a brother's control of the character, saying: "He has entered my dream, he can see my identity, he is willing to hand over the treasure he has hidden to me, and he also promised to give me the power of the blood clan......"
"Turning you into a Bloodline?"
"It can also be the same, but you will get much less...... But it's also much more powerful than ordinary people! The little peacock said longingly.
In the end, he is still young, and the second period of secondary school is the most suitable for daydreaming, hoping to be favored by the strong and get rare or world-famous martial arts.
During the time that Lan Shuying was talking to him, she had already found a toolbox and asked him to hold on to the ladder, she rolled up her sleeves and began to dismantle the house, "How many times have you been in contact?" ”
The little peacock replied honestly: "Twice." ”
"For the first time he recognized me and ordered me to help him kill Madame Butterfly...... I, I said yes at the time, because you didn't even recognize me...... You only have that woman in your eyes, and I'm not happy. But I really didn't kill her! ”
He held the ladder with both hands, glanced at the big red dress of Madame Butterfly soaked in the ground, and with confusion in his eyes, he whispered, "It's really not me......"
"Didn't he look for you again? What was said the second time? Lan Shuying saw the position and threw the board that had just been removed to the door, and when there was a few sounds, it broke into several pieces.
She looked too calm, even cold-blooded.
It seems that Madame Butterfly's death will no longer affect her mood.
But the little peacock thought he knew this man best.
He felt that his brother in this state was the most dangerous, and he was determined to find out the matter.
He drooped his head and said, "The second time, he asked me to recognize you and assess whether you are worthy of being his descendant." ”
Lan Shuying shook her hand and repeated the three words in astonishment:
"Worthy?"
She thought it was funny.
To be a grandson, do you have to be assessed?
Oh, yes, too.
I almost forgot that guy wasn't human.
If it were a human being, blood ties were the most wonderful and intimate kinds, and the Grand Duke should have recognized the two brothers.
But he's a Bloodline now.
What are the specific conditions to be his descendants, that has to be said separately.
"How are you going to be assessed?"
The little peacock was silent for a long time, his eyes went from struggle to firmness, and finally refused: "...... I don't want to tell you. ”
Lan Shuying shook her head: "If you don't say it, then I'll guess for myself." ”
"After he first asked you to kill Madame, you must have made some arrangements, and he was satisfied, so he admitted that you could be his offspring; The second time was about me, but the matter of Madame has already been assigned, and the rest of the assessment is for me......"
"It's to recover the property that was usurped by her family......"
She observed the little peacock's expression, and when the other party's eyes lit up slightly and were about to agree, she turned a corner, "Or the two of us have a competition, and let him see if I'm qualified." ”
“……”
"It seems to be this." Lan Shuying came up with an answer and sighed in a low voice, "The ancestors don't seem to be kind to us. ”
"Don't talk nonsense!" The little peacock was in a hurry.
A small metal bat flew out.
"It's over...... He will know, brother, go to the castle to admit your mistakes, and beg him to forgive you! ”
"I don't have time to go, I still have to find the murderer. You get out of the way. ”
She lifted the last few pieces of the ceiling to get an unobstructed view.
There are several wire cables in the void, and the structure can echo the linkage, starting from the place where Madame Butterfly hangs herself, and the last section disappears at the interface between the wall crack and the floor tiles.
