Chapter 201: Duplicity
readx;?“ But why am I in such a place?"
Recalling her last memories before she fell unconscious, Edith suddenly realized that perhaps the mysterious knight had brought her here. She carefully got up and got out www.biquge.info of bed, put on the slippers that were ready to be on the side of the bed, and decided to leave the room to see where she had been taken.
She gently opened the door to her room and looked out twice, noticing that there was no one in the hallway. So, she quietly moved her body out, like a thief who had broken into the noble mansion, and with a little apprehension, she crept along the corridor and began to move.
In fact, Elena herself didn't know why she was so careful. As a sinner who has been living at the bottom, she just subconsciously felt that she seemed to have entered a place where she shouldn't have entered, and she couldn't help but be restrained and vigilant.
After walking slowly along the corridor for a while, at the end of the corridor, a faintly familiar hall appeared in front of her. And in that hall, two teenagers were sitting on the sofa in the hall drinking morning tea, discussing something.
In the girl's opinion, these two teenagers were undoubtedly extremely handsome. A blonde with blue eyes, with a dandy-like smile on the corner of his mouth, the whole person looks a little improper, but faintly shrewd. The other is silver-haired and pale eyes, his slender eyes make him look very majestic, and the slightly upturned corners of his mouth add a wisp of tenderness to it, hiding a little edge.
"That's ......!?"
Edith let out a deep exclamation and immediately hid behind the half-hidden door.
She already recognized the blonde teenager. In fact, as the first handsome man she had ever seen in her life, and the "mastermind behind the scenes" who caused her to experience a dream, how could Edith forget the appearance of this young master. And the silver-haired boy beside him was not inferior to him at all, as long as he saw the familiar black trench coat, how could the girl not guess his identity.
"He's so handsome!Ah, no, it should be that the two of them know each other!" Edith's head was in confusion. She regretted it so much, why did she hide just now, what should she do now? To go out or not to go out? She hesitated and struggled, but finally decided to hide and listen to what they were talking about.
At this time, in the hall, Alvin seemed to be ridiculing Ian "maliciously".
"I didn't expect you to wake up so early. I thought you would have slept until at least tonight with the dizzy way you looked last night. Alvin drank morning tea, with a smile on his face, and teased Ian, who had just woken up not long ago: "But then again, how does it feel like a hero to save beauty?
Ian pursed his lips angrily, then glanced slightly outside the door of the hall, and threatened the begging friend, "Do you need me to call Tina over?"
"Okay. Alvin raised his eyebrows and smiled indifferently, "Let's hurt each other!"
"Get out!" Ian couldn't help but rub his temples. The sequelae left yesterday are still not good, and there are still important things to do today, so he doesn't have the time and energy to "hurt each other" with this bastard.
"But what are you going to do now?" asked Alvin, who was ready to take it when he saw it, meaningfully. He already knew a little bit of the truth from Ian's mouth, and understood that Count Bell was not a traitor to Black Balance. And after knowing this truth, an extremely troublesome question emerged.
"Do you want to tell this to the warden who is so fair that he is strict?"
"Of course. Ian nodded helplessly: "Although according to that person's character, tell her that some unforeseen changes will happen." But if you don't tell her, letting the real black hand get out of the matter will only bury worse hidden dangers. And, with the exception of the one lying in my house, the rest of the team seemed to have vanished, which really made me feel uneasy. If we can get Ms. Amanda to help with the investigation, it will be easier than the two of us to find it. ”
"That's just as well. Alvin touched his chin and said: "Things have to come step by step, it's useless to worry about these now, let's get the things in front of you first, you have to fight a tough battle today, and the meeting of the nobles will not be easier than the actual battle." ”
"Nope. Ian shook his head: "It's Lady Amanda who fights, and I'm just a pawn." ”
"The Night's Watch is no small ...... Wait, you're going to go over like this now?"
"Or you think. Ian rolled his eyes at him: "You know, I just broke into the Earl's Court last night, if I go directly and arrogantly as a night watchman today, that fat fox won't take advantage of the topic and find me to 'desperately'?"
"You're not afraid to reveal your identity. Alvin asked, the corners of his mouth twitching.
"Ms. Amanda won't say that. Ian spread his hands: "And in that kind of place, even if it starts, it won't be my turn to make a move." ”
"Exactly as you say. Alvin nodded after a moment of silence. After all, it was the council hall of the Northern Regions, heavily guarded, and it would be so easy for something to happen. He picked up the cup and took a leisurely sip. At this moment, I saw a white corner of my clothes peeking out on the ground outside the hall door.
"Huh?" He was slightly stunned by such a discovery, and then immediately guessed who it was, and chuckled in the direction of the hall door and invited: "It seems that our 'Royal Highness the Princess' has woken up, why don't you come in and sit down?"
It's been discovered!
Edith shuddered and shrank back like a rat being targeted by a cat, and it was not until a long time later that she realized that she had been hiding in vain, and she cowered and stuck her head out.
"Please...... Please don't say that, Master Alvin. ”
"Hehe, don't call me young master, I'll be sad. Alvin made a gesture to invite in, then pointed to the friend beside him, and winked at the girl: "Look, his name is Ian, and he is the 'knight' who rescued you from the clutches last night." If you want to make a promise, I can help you."
"How...... How could it be. The girl who had just walked into the hall almost escaped because of these words. She resisted her shyness, walked forward with a red face, and stammered to Ian, "Ian...... Thank you, Excellency...... Your shot...... Rescue, if ...... in the future If I have the chance, I'll ...... I will definitely repay you. ”
"It doesn't have to be that way. Ian angrily white-eyed the bad friend, and said to the girl as gently as possible: "Originally, you were involved because of our affairs, and it is natural to save you, as long as you don't blame us for it." ”
"How...... How could it be!"
"Haha, alright, alright, Miss Edith. Alvin clapped his hands in fear, interrupted the girl's defense, and said with a smile: "There are two people who want to see you, and I have asked the attendant to call them here." ”
"What?" Edith was slightly startled, and then immediately heard two familiar voices.
"Sister!"
"Edith!"
"Aisha! Mom!" the girl turned around in disbelief, looked at her relatives behind her in surprise, quickly lifted her skirt, ran to them, hugged them tightly, and immediately laughed and cried.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Ian was slightly stunned, and then immediately handed a teasing look to the friend next to him.
"What's wrong?"
"It's nothing, I just suddenly felt that you are really a duplicitous guy. (To be continued.) )
