Chapter 174: Josephine's Invitation
The invitation from the proprietress was a little abrupt, and even everyone, including the person concerned, was a little surprised.
The three people who are the parties have roughly guessed what kind of mind this proprietress has, but they didn't expect her to be so direct, and the remaining people, especially Wavansen, who is a frequent customer, didn't expect that this proprietress who has always been low-key and detached would make such a bold move.
As the Seventh Prince, Wavansen also showed his bearing, and did not ask too much about the purpose of the proprietress doing this, but opened the somewhat frozen atmosphere with a smile, and said, "So, let's go back to the academy first, right?"
Wavanson's proposal was approved by Marlena and Barlot, and the rest of the group followed them out of the bar. Heidi was a little strange, but she still left with the others, but on the way out, she turned around several times to exchange glances with Ellie, but she didn't seem to get any information from Ellie. Kelsey had no books to read, so she naturally wished she had left early, and she had yawned several times after walking out of the bar.
In the end, only Su Wen Ellie and Yumi, the three proprietresses who were looking for them, were still standing at the door of the bar.
"Please. The hostess smiled and invited the three to re-enter the bar.
Su Wen also showed a smile and followed the proprietress in. Ellie, after making eye contact with Yumi, also let go of her hesitation and followed.
"The ......"
"As you can see, I am the owner of this bar, and you may call me Josephine. Josephine introduced herself as she walked in front to lead the way for the three of them, and as she passed by the bar, she asked the maid at the bar for three drinks with a very special name, and sent them upstairs in a while.
"My name is Su Wen, this is Ellie, this is Yumi. Su Wen also introduced the names of the people on his side to Josephine.
The trio followed Josephine up the stairs with the sign "Customers Stop" to a reception room on the second floor of the bar.
Decorated in gold, this meeting room is understated and luxurious, with a level of sophistication that is no less refined than that of an ordinary aristocratic house. It can be seen that Josephine must have spent a lot of money to get such a room.
After the three of them took their seats, they remained silent, as if waiting for Josephine to reveal the answer to her invitation to the three of them.
And Josephine was not polite, and said the topic straight to the point: "I think our identities should also be known to the three of us, right?"
Being directly pointed out by Josephine was something that the three of them had already expected in their hearts, so the three of them did not look surprised, but nodded silently.
Seeing that the three of them nodded very dryly, Josephine smiled again after a brief moment of distraction, "A demon hunter who can see through our details and an 'ordinary youth' who can stop her and convince her, and a 'kind' ......"
In the midst of talking and laughing, Josephine pointed out the identities of the three.
Of course, she didn't see through Su Wen's details.
Looking at the reactions of the three people, Josephine knew that the three of them should know each other's identities, logically speaking, the demon hunter and the monster are almost completely opposites, and the scene of sitting together and chatting and drinking tea like the two girls in front of him is almost completely impossible, but today, Josephine really saw it. Moreover, there was also a young man who stopped the demon hunter.
Facing Su Wen's slightly inquiring eyes, Josephine also covered her mouth and chuckled: "When this Miss Yumi came over just now, I happened to notice it upstairs. ”
The implication is that Josephine had already sniffed Yumi's demon hunter aura before she came, and it was likely that Su Wen had heard it along with the conversation between Yumi and the door. This Josephine's ability to hide his aura is also quite strong.
Combined with Su Wen's behavior in the bar, Josephine judged that these people, led by Su Wen, did not reject monsters, at least the existence of blood seeds. Otherwise, he wouldn't have tried his best to show the "human" side of the bloodband in front of Yumi, a demon hunter.
And Yumi really fell into the contradictory thinking of reality and imagination because of this incident.
"Miss Josephine is truly discerning. ”
"Where, it's over. Josephine shook her head slightly, thought for a moment, and added: "If the age is calculated according to the years experienced, I can probably be your grandmother's grandmother, so, if you don't mind, just call me Josephine." ”
Yumi looked surprised, but Su Wen and Ellie next to him didn't have too many expressions. Su Wen even followed Josephine's words and called Josephine.
Su Wen found out from the literature that the blood race has a long life, so he was mentally prepared for the real age of Josephine, who seemed to be the leader of this blood race. As for Ellie, it was from the memories that came from the talent of the cave worms that she knew the characteristics of the blood race.
But in Josephine's opinion, the identities of Su Wen and Ellie have become more and more mysterious.
Because even Josephine, until now, still can't see through Ellie's true body. In addition to feeling the strength of her body that is slightly stronger than herself, there is only a faint demonic aura that is hidden.
At the time of these few words, there was a sudden knock on the door of the living room.
Without seeing any movement from Josephine, the door was pushed open by the maid who had sung because of Wavansen's song, and by her calm expression, it was obvious that Josephine had agreed. On the plate in the handmaiden's hand were four glasses of scarlet liquid, presumably some kind of drink.
"This drink is a specialty of our bar, try it?"
Yumi was still a little hesitant, it seemed that psychologically, she still hadn't crossed the threshold of the word "monster", and she was still vigilant in front of Josephine, a blood species that made her feel a little dangerous.
Su Wen picked up the cup and shook it slightly, admiring the scarlet liquid that didn't spill out no matter how tumbling it was, and exclaimed, "It's really a very racially characteristic drink." ”
"Rest assured, it's vegetarian. ”
That is, there is no blood component.
Ellie looked twice, picked up the cup, and drank it down.
Her "boldness" made Josephine think highly of her again.
However, Ellie's own plan is just to try to see if it is poisonous, and if it is poisonous, she can also find it as soon as possible, and then synthesize an antitoxin.
After that, Su Wen and Yumi also picked up their cups one after another, and together with Josephine, they tasted the flavorful special drinks in the cups.
The form of politeness probably ends here.
Next, Josephine was about to tell her true purpose.
