When she returned to the magazine, she learned that Murrow had been diagnosed with medium-term stomach cancer, and he asked the headquarters to come to China more than a month ago to find materials, and when Murrow and she went to France, news came from the headquarters that Murrow had embezzled public funds, and now the police have been called.

"Shi Sui, why did you come back alone? What about the Murrows? The editor-in-chief probably felt that he was being tricked by Murrow, and he spoke with a lot of resentment, and he was in a very bad mood.

"After we stayed in the castle, I helped him make an appointment with Joseph, the owner of the castle, for an interview, but he disappeared after the visit, and he didn't tell me what the theme of this trip to the castle was, and it just so happened that the housekeeper of the castle said that I was the thousandth guest of their hotel, and as a reward gave me a first-class ticket for the return trip, I simply came back." She was half telling the truth and half false.

"Forget it, it's good that you weren't implicated by him anyway." The editor-in-chief waved her out.

She found Xiao Mo in the office, "Xiao Mo! I really want to thank you this time! ”

"Thank me?" Xiao Mo typed desperately into the computer, without even turning his head to look at her, "I heard that Murrow almost caused trouble for the editor-in-chief, congratulations on not being implicated and not being pushed out as a scapegoat, but it has nothing to do with me, because I haven't had time to say the first half of a good word to you." ”

"Not this!" She crossed her waist and said, "It's Qian Yi, the housekeeper of the Castle Hotel, and you are the one who asked him to take care of me, right?" "I can know so many characters from all walks of life, and only Xiao Mo is the friend she knows.

"It's not." Xiao Mo replied quickly.

"Liar! Not who you are? She simply reached out and turned off Xiao Mo's computer monitor.

"Miss, I'm so busy here, what are you making trouble?" Xiao Mo propped his head and looked at her with a sigh.

"Who told you to perfunctory me?" She said, "I've been merciful to the subordinates who didn't unplug the mainframe." ”

"How can I perfunctory you? Didn't I tell you that I didn't ask him? Xiao Mo spread his hands and said, "I haven't heard the name you said at all." Besides, I wish you owed me a favor so that you could share a little work for me. ”

"It's really not you?" Who would that be?

"Really, yes, no, yes." Xiao Mo ignored her, turned on the monitor and got busy again.

"Hearing you say that, you really encountered a lot of things on this trip to France." Her good friend Tie Yirou, who runs a café, said this after hearing her talk about the seemingly fantastical experience.

"You believe it?" But she was surprised.

"Did you lie to me?" Tie Yirou asked with a smile.

"That's not ......," she sneered, scratching at her hair.

"Isn't that enough?" As she spoke, Tie Yirou beckoned the waiter to come over and bring the coffee she had just brewed to the guests.

That's what you say, but ordinary people don't believe it so easily, right? "Forget it, give me a hot latte with whipped cream. I still think the coffee brewed by Yirou is the best. ”

"I'm glad to hear you say that, and today is a celebration of your return, and I'll treat you to this cup of coffee." Tie Yirou smiled and went to make coffee.

I don't know how Murrow is doing now, has he been arrested by the police? He knew that he had stomach cancer and wanted to go to that castle to seek the secret of immortality that he didn't know existed, right? Looking at his lofty appearance, I didn't expect to be so afraid of death, and he actually wanted to sell her, which was really extraordinary, and he was ruined. No wonder as the saying goes, rice raises a hundred kinds of people. "In retrospect, I really met a bunch of weirdos when I went to France." She took out the photos she picked out the most satisfying, "The weirdest thing is this child." ”

"Kids?" Tie Yirou put the coffee in front of her, "Is that the kid who took you out of the castle?" ”

"Yes. Well, it's cute. She showed Tie Yirou the photo of Adelan taken in the secret passage, "You see that he is young, but sometimes he is unexpectedly old, and I was played by him." ”

"Isn't it because you're too innocent?" Tie Yirou was joking as she leaned over and looked at the photo, and her face suddenly changed.

"What's wrong? Is it your friend? She asked. Ah, Tie Yirou should be considered to have a wide range of friends, right? I heard that she had been to many places before coming to Huizhou.

"Hmm...... Saw it once a long time ago. Tie Yirou's smile disappeared, "He didn't do anything to you, did he?" ”

"No, I was able to escape thanks to his help." Maybe he was the one who secretly helped when she was held hostage by Murrow. She licked the cream from the corner of her mouth and said, "But this guy is very snobbish, and he won't help until I pay him." ”

"What is he asking for?" Tie Yirou asked.

Why is Yirou so interested in Adelan? He hadn't said it yet. At that time, someone came after him, so I gave him my contact information and asked him to think about it and look for me again. ”

"Oh......" Tie Yirou nodded thoughtfully.

"By the way, did you ask Qian Yi to take care of me?" She asked casually.

"Huh?"

"Isn't that you? There's also a portrait of you, which was left by the owner of the castle more than 100 years ago. She picked out a picture and said, "Look, could this be your ancestor?" In other words, you have a little relationship with them, right? ”

"Hehe......" Tie Yirou chuckled, "I don't know, our brother and sister are orphans, who knows about our ancestors." But Qian Yi is indeed a friend of mine, and I told him that you would go to the castle hotel where he works for a few days, because he doesn't speak French and is going to France for the first time, so I asked him to take care of you. ”

"You didn't know exactly what he was doing in the castle?"

"All I know is that he's a general manager at the Castle Hotel." Tie Yirou smiled, "But I really didn't expect him to help you like this, and it can be regarded as a non-human being." ”

"Cut! Then why didn't he tell me that you asked him before? What is mysterious? She pouted and said, "Have you been in touch with him for the past few days?" Say hello to him for me. ”

"I could have done that, but for some reason he recently changed his email address and I can't contact him for the time being." Tie Yirou said.

Nothing will happen to Qian Yi, right? She thought about it, shouldn't it? How can it be said that Qian Yi has lived for so many years, as the so-called bridge he has walked more than she has walked, who can help him? Perhaps another person who is exactly like Joseph has become the new owner of the castle at the castle hotel, and Qian Yi continues to study the secret recipe of immortality in the castle's laboratory, waiting for those who are eager for immortality to be used as experimental samples for him like moths to a fire.
