Slowly opened his eyes...... In fact, Lorenzo had been awake for a while, but he had not opened his eyes to see where he was.

Lorenzo was thinking, he was a little curious about where he would wake up this time, after all, the last memory was that he fainted to the ground.

Lorenzo would wake up in strange places every time he fainted, and each time he saw a different ceiling at first glance, it seemed that this ceiling was the real "save point", and every time he woke up, he was thinking about what it would be like this time.

Metal ceilings, or mural-like walls, or posters-like ceilings?

When he finally opened his eyes, he saw a mixture of brown and yellow, which were intertwined to form an ever-extending picture, and light curtains fell at the corners of the stretch.

Wait a minute......

Lorenzo sat up violently, the terrible headache seemed to be over, but all the wounds would leave traces, even if they were mental, and Lorenzo would still feel the dull pain in his mind.

But this is not the time to think about it.

He looked at his surroundings, and although there were not many extravagant ornaments, judging from the faintly luxurious decoration style, this was not a place for a person like Lorenzo to come easily.

On the soft-sided chair lay Lorenzo's clothes, not just clothes, but a new one, and the weapons he was carrying, one by one, laid out like a pile of doll's accessories.

But there is a new problem, the clothes are here, so what are you wearing?

Looking down, Lorenzo was wearing a pale blue pajamas, which didn't look like they were meant for him, and the clothes were much looser.

"No, that's not right......"

Lorenzo muttered to himself.

After so many years of crawling and rolling in the old Dunling, he had never seen any formation, and it would not be surprising if he was to wake up and be hung up and ready to be executed, but now he is in such a place...... He had never seen this formation.

"It can't be that I didn't wake up......"

Lorenzo thought about it and made such a decision.

So he lay back and put the quilt over his head, and after about a minute, Lorenzo sat up again.

He couldn't sleep.

Lorenzo got up from above, picked Winchester on his shoulder, and walked straight out of the room.

A dignified witcher, I haven't seen any strong winds and waves.

Outside the door is a silent promenade with carpets stretching to the end of the eye, and through the window Lorenzo can see the lush sky of Old Dunling, the solid walls that extend to the ground, and the garden area that separates the crowded street from it.

"Are you awake?"

Suddenly, a voice sounded behind me.

Lorenzo subconsciously waved the handle of Winchester's gun, and a familiar face came into view.

"Good morning, Mr. Holmes. ”

Looking at this "uninvited guest" Yawei showed a kind smile as much as possible.

Lorenzo looked at Yawei and then at the view outside the window, and he seemed to know where he was.

He looked a little embarrassed.

"I ...... Why are you here?"

"Hmm...... This could be a ...... Relatively complex story. ”

Yawei said as he walked past Lorenzo and made a "please" gesture.

......

It was an absurd scene, a long table in the center of the room under an intricately crafted crystal chandelier, the fire in the fireplace crackling, and the attendants departed after breakfast, with only Yahweh, the stern old butler, standing on the other side.

At one end of the long table was the young hostess of the place, and next to her was Lorenzo, who was struggling to eat.

"So...... Why did you come out in your pajamas? with a gun?"

Seleuc couldn't help but ask.

"It's a long story. ”

Lorenzo didn't seem to want to explain anything, Yawei was playing on himself, and who knew if he was going to bring him to breakfast.

Regardless of Seleuc's disgusted eyes, Lorenzo lowered his head and ate, he didn't know how long he had been asleep, he was very hungry now.

"Looks like you're recovering well. ”

Seleucus looked at Lorenzo's stormy demeanor and couldn't help but admire the strength of the witcher's physique, and when he picked him up in the alley, he looked like a dead man.

"You look good, too. ”

Lorenzo said bad things and greeted each other.

Lorenzo hadn't seen Seleuc since Sheikh Lawrence's attack, and as one of the people involved, she didn't appear to be hurt or anything.

"Are you also in the gang now?"

Lorenzo asked, thinking for a moment.

Although it is not clear how the purification mechanism will deal with the follow-up matters, the demon must have been completely exposed to Seleuc's eyes, and with her being so special, maybe she is now one of the acquaintances.

"Almost. ”

Seleucus nodded, she didn't know what deal the purifier had made with her, she hadn't been dragged away by the group of scavengers to do any psychological suggestion, forget hypnosis or anything like that.

Saying this, Lorenzo glanced at Yawei who was standing aside, and there were only three of them left here.

"He knows that, too, but ......"

Seleuc seemed to think of something halfway through speaking, she gestured to Yawei to look, the old butler still looked a little uneasy, but there was still no way to leave, now only Lorenzo and Seleu were left here.

The two of them ate in silence, until Seleuc finally couldn't help but ask.

"So dear detective, what kind of witch are you?"

Without the interference of others, Seleu went straight to the point.

"One of the former professions, I am now a real detective, certified by Su Yalan Hall!"

Lorenzo began to change the subject, but this was clearly not useful to Seleuc.

"I started with that...... I already know the general idea of you. ”

Seleuc sighed as he spoke.

"It's a wonderful world, there's everything. ”

Demons, original sin armor, purification mechanisms, although I don't know much, but just from the calm of the old Dunling after that treatment, you can feel the power of that organization.

"No, they just sold me?"

Listening to Seleu's flat tone, Lorenzo was stunned.

In Lorenzo's view, the Purges are highly classified organizations, and those who know them are either knocked unconscious and amnesiac, or sent to the northern ice fields to dig potatoes for a lifetime.

"Quite simply, I promised them commercial support, and the whole Stuart community has a lot of energy, and it would be very expensive to maintain that kind of organization, even with the support of the state, right? ”

Sometimes Lorenzo always forgets Seleuc's share, the future Duchess of Stuart, although not as large as the Duke of Salicado, but the Stuart family's connections can be said to be all over Invig, no matter what industry has the existence of members, not to be underestimated.

"Like a strange and unprofitable company, I became a small investor in exchange for a little bit of power. ”

Seleuc smiled slyly.

The decontamination agency will not be fully public, but they will be happy to share it with those who are willing to cooperate and can sponsor it.

What's more, they really didn't know what to do with this troublesome Seleuc, and it would be great if they could gag her mouth at a very small cost.

In a way, this is also maintaining the rule, tying the Stuart family to the galloping chariot...... Although, judging from the current power of this little girl, she is just a decorative pendant in the car.

"Am I so worthless?"

Lorenzo shook his head angrily.

"In fact, at that time, your newspaper was no longer valuable, and they were just pushing the boat along the water. ”

Seleuc explained.

She had seen the whole thing at the time, and there was nothing left to hide from it.

"But, Lorenzo, you're hiding so much. ”

Seleucus looked at Lorenzo with that strange smile, looking from top to bottom, as if he had reacquainted himself with the man.

Lorenzo twisted his head uncomfortably, it felt like a street thug admiring a passing girl, but at the moment it was reversed.

I thought he was just a detective who could fight, but who would have thought that this was still a mysterious witcher.

"People have to have something to do. ”

He pretended to say deeply, and as he spoke, he also took a few bites vigorously, and I have to say that the food cooked by this big family is better than that of the small shop on the street.

"Why am I here?"

Lorenzo looked up as he spoke, but looked at his other self, his reflection in the sea of ice.

As he was not tall enough, Seleuc stepped on the chair with one leg and half-knelt on the table with the other, tried to get close to him, and then looked Lorenzo in the eye carefully.

Some people say that the eyes are the windows to the soul, and Seleuc's posture is like opening the skylight and dragging the strange soul out of it to revisit.

Lorenzo's first instinct was to look away, Seleuc's eyes were like magic, no one could hide her thoughts under that sight, she would always easily see through you and find what she wanted.

If it weren't for the fact that Seleucus had never reacted to erosion, Lorenzo would sometimes even wonder if this unlucky child was some new species of demon that had not been discovered.

Lorenzo hated looking at each other, or being seen through, it felt like someone had lifted your roof and dragged you out of the bed, and he tried to look away, but he was directly held in place by a pair of cold little hands.

Seleucus fixed Lorenzo with both hands, forcing him to look at him, carefully examining the familiar and unfamiliar face.

"We said yes, Seleuc. ”

Lorenzo looked away, and he refused.

"The one who spoke to me is a detective, not a witcher. ”

Pinching Lorenzo's face hard, it was like ravaging a big fluffy dog, twisting out strange watches.

"Do you know that if I push hard, you'll be ripped off by me?"

Lorenzo threatened.

At this moment, Seleu's focus was already on him, and as soon as Lorenzo retreated, Seleu would fall on the table.

"Oh, so Yawei heard the noise and walked in and saw me fall on the table...... You know what? Lorenzo, Yahweh hasn't been away since you moved in...... He really has a big opinion of you. ”

Like a dangerous villain, Seleuc's somewhat indifferent face was full of mockery.

Lorenzo fell into an awkward silence for a moment.

"So be honest, Witcher. ”

Forcefully straightened Lorenzo's face, and the two pairs of eyes couldn't help but look at each other.

It was an amazing feeling, and it reminded Lorenzo of the first time he saw Seleuc, in Gaulinaro, a small harbor town near the White Tide Strait.

Lorenzo learned of Seleuc's existence after asking around, and this little girl survived in the chaos of the town with her agility to easily see through people's hearts.

In a dilapidated alley, Lorenzo saw Seleuc, when there were still many people there, but when he saw the ice in his eyes, Lorenzo knew that she was his target.

It was a mirror-like pupil that reflected everything in the world.

But suddenly the cold touch was gone, and by the time Lorenzo reacted, Seleu had already sat back down, continuing to cut the food on his plate as if nothing had happened.

Regardless of the image, she deliberately made a chirp sound, as if she was tasting Lorenzo's little secret.

"So...... Why am I here?"

Lorenzo didn't want to talk much about this at all, and looked wary.

He remembered fainting in an alley, only to wake up here.

"I had something to do with you, and Madame van Loude said that you had been out for many days, and then on the way back I saw you and fainted in an alley. ”

Seleuc said as he passed.

So I brought you back, you were wounded, Yawei helped you with the wound, and then you slept all day. ”

"That's it?"

"That's all, what else would it be?"

Seleuc finished his meal and set the dishes aside.

This guy is always cold, like a lifeless doll, but sometimes he is alive and rarely lively.

Lorenzo sensed something was wrong, and he asked.

"And what are you looking for me?"

I just feel like I'm in trouble.

Seleuc replied.

"Someone wants to see you. ”

"See me?"

Lorenzo swept his social circle for a moment, except for some demons and monsters, there were all kinds of dead people, and there were not many people who could find themselves.

"Yes, so please stay here until the night, Lorenzo. ”

Seleuc stood up and smiled.

"There's an honored guest who wants to see you, tonight. ”

With a touch of mystery, she likes to see Lorenzo in distress.

"You still haven't said what's the matter, Seleuc. ”

Lorenzo was keenly aware of something, and he asked again.

"For the witcher's sake?"

In Lorenzo's opinion, the only thing he could get the attention of those noble people was the ability of the witcher, and he felt that it was a little bad to go through the purification mechanism and find him directly.

Seleucus shook his head.

"Don't worry, I didn't tell you about it, after all, I also signed a confidentiality agreement...... That thing seems dispensable, though. ”

She approached Lorenzo and helped him button up his pajamas, the sound echoing in his ear).

"For the detective's sake. ”

"For the sake of the great detective Lorenzo Holmes. ”

The icy eyes seemed to smile at him, she finally said.

"When the time comes, please dress more seriously, don't wear pajamas and come out, okay?"
