24 The Count must not be left alone
"So, what kind of sword do you want to make me lonely for the rest of my life? It's almost a bit human, the Count is also a human being, and he has to mate and breed, give him a little personal space, okay? I tell you, even if that girl is the Queen of the Alps, I have to give it a try without hesitation, you can't stop me, Lancelot. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info "The Earl scratched his heart for a showdown. He knew that the serious and upright Lancelot couldn't resist his straightforwardness.
Lancelot was dumbfounded, thinking that this time was the handover of military affairs, and the political situation, the economic depression had made the Earl anxious, and the testamentary trial had made him lick the blood, and the Earl really didn't have much personal time left, and he should almost be crazy to blow up.
"Okay. Then I'll give you swordsmanship instruction tomorrow. Lancelot relented.
"Say it again, say it again. The Count pushed Lancelot away and returned to the table with a smile. Lancelot failed to stir up the situation and went back to Otto to get his life back.
"What?" Otto's eyes narrowed dangerously at Lancelot's words, "Countess, is he serious, does he cherish this rainy season so much?"
He said it was a girl who had lost his soul and that he had to try. Lancelot blushed, and couldn't help but bow his head and cough dryly as he spoke.
"You want to sneak away from the curse of being single, stupid brother, it's time for you to feel the power of the Holy Fire. Otto clenched his fists grimly, eager to go upstairs.
"Lancelot! The Earl, who did not yet know that death was imminent, shouted joyfully on the second floor.
Lancelot bought the apple and was about to serve it, but Lord Otto snatched the plate. Otto went upstairs with the apple, and smiled warmly: "I'll bring it to my brother." After all, since he returned to China, I have been snubbing him, and the care between relatives is far from enough. ”
Lancelot and Father Yannick watched Otto walk to the staircase in a daze, and wondered, "Is Otto really so good to his own brother?
When Otto gracefully ascended the stairs, he turned his head and smiled, staring at Lancelot on this side soothingly, smiling like a choir maiden, holy and immaculate, and the sun was shining.
Lancelot was moved to tears, thinking that Fort William could finally unite and work together with the outside world.
Then Otto's smiling eyes suddenly widened, bloodshot, like a bloodthirsty beast, full of hunting murder.
Father Yannick was dumbfounded, and the Sanskrit Book in his hand fell to the ground.
Otto smirked and went upstairs.
"So Miss Elaine, you are the inspector of the Habsbank-Bafaria branch, aren't you?" the Count, not knowing that danger was coming, smiled heartily and diligently hid in his official duties to cultivate his feelings: "I am very concerned about the expenditure of war reparations for which the branch is responsible, you know, because the payment of the reparations has brought to the bottom of the gold reserves of the branch, and as soon as the branch closes the gold exchange window, inflation will be out of control. I'm a little anxious right now, when will the branch come up with measures to save the economy?"
Lily didn't dare to disturb when she heard the Earl's words, but she held her beer with her eyes wide open and listened quietly.
This is the situation that the Count wants. Not only can I not offend Lily, but I can also consult Elaine, and I can only do it by talking about official business, which is simply outstanding.
Elaine was really fooled, tilted her head and pulled out a planned chronology, put it on the table and pushed it to the earl, looked at the chronology seriously and said, "Don't think about saving the economy." This is a chronology of reparations payments drawn up by the Habs Central Bank and the Bafaria Branch. You see, the central bank bears 140 million indemnities, the Bafaria branch bears 100 million, and the gold reserves are all exchanged for foreign exchange and flowed into the pockets of the victorious countries, and the branches will not open the gold exchange window again - Dak will always be decoupled from gold, inflation is out of control, resign to fate. ”
The Earl frowned and became serious, did not speak, forgot to pick up the girl, and picked up the chronology to look at it carefully.
Suddenly, a dripping apple was handed to the earl's lips, and Lord Otto said softly, "The apple you want." ”
Frederick raised his eyebrows, glanced down at the apple, turned his head to look up at Otto, and saw that his brother actually looked innocent, and suddenly muttered in his heart: "Who is it to pretend to be harmless to humans and animals?
"Don't eat. Count Frederick shook his head firmly and continued to look at the chronology.
Otto smiled slightly, affectionately dragged a chair and sat down beside him, lowered his head and took a bite of the apple, pursed his lips and chewed it, and then handed the apple to the earl's lips, and smiled knowingly: "So you are willing to eat?"
Count Frederick looked down at the bitten apple and thought, "It seems that he would not have died with me if he had not been poisoned." If you really want to eat apples, let's make do with them. ”
So Frederick took the apple without saying a word, brought it to his mouth and nibbled sweetly, concentrating on the important chronology.
Elaine's eyes widened. Otto looked at the Count, and Elaine looked at Otto, and saw that his lips were as red as blood, and his cheeks were as white as white paper, and his skin was as smooth as petals, and his eyebrows were as straight as painted, and his eyes were like water, and he was infinitely gentle. The opening was a fluttering male voice, which made Elaine stunned and scolded in her heart: "The fog grass is too beautiful, okay, a man is actually more beautiful than a woman, heaven does not tolerate it! May I ask what this good-looking monster grew up eating? Is there any secret to being so good-looking, teach me quickly, can I eat something to remedy my ugliness? Damn!"
This is the mental activity of Elaine as she clenches her beer glass: jealousy, overflowing jealousy.
And Lily was already holding her face in the sky, her mouth was wide open and almost collapsed, and the six gods thought to themselves: "I can't live anymore, there is no way to compete at all, I am defeated!" Seeing the Count gnawing on the apple that Otto had bitten without saying a word, Lily only felt that the world was spinning, and her mind was rolling darkly and repeating a sentence: "Brother, are you willing to eat in this way?"
This is the mental activity of Lily when she is holding her face in a daze: sadness, sadness that life cannot bear.
How intimate are they! Stop, my imagination stops! Lily get that image out of her mind, get out of her mind!
Then Otto, while the Count was nibbling on the apple, glanced at the stunned Elaine silently, and the four eyes met each other, and sparks burst out. A thousand words, all in Otto's triumphant gaze, ruthlessly declared: See, you will never be able to kiss Frederick like this, understand?
Elaine's lips were a little purple, and she couldn't speak.
Then, Lancelot and Father Yannick were shocked to see Elaine carrying her bag and going downstairs in a menacing manner, leaving the table regardless of the fact that Frederick could not keep it. And Lily folded her sleeves in despair, staggered after Elaine, and went downstairs without a master.
