Chapter 542: You Win, And Then What?
The winter sun shone weakly in the courtyard and at the door of the hall, and the woman stood at the junction of the sun and the shadow, and seemed to like the feeling of half being exposed in the light and the other half hidden in the dark. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Donner's question, which she didn't answer, still looked at him with a smirk.
By this time, Wesley had already noticed her, instinctively tensing all over, holding a magic wand firmly in his arms with one hand in his arms.
"It's all right......" Donner waved his hand at Wesley, his eyes still staring at the woman, "You threw the stone, right?" He didn't react for a moment, using the western language, which was changed to the Van Tais language spoken in the Wizarding Continent.
The woman curled the corners of her mouth into a satisfied smile, and replied slowly, also in the language of Vantas, "I thought that a comfortable life had corrupted your mind. ”
Donner smiled, at least for now, he didn't sense any hostility in the woman.
She traveled with Alex to take advantage of the Medici family's business network throughout Middle-earth, and it seems that she does not speak Middle-earth, and Alex is mostly acting as a translator.
Being able to have Alex as a tour guide and translator is really not a small face, but looking at Middle-earth, who dares not to give this woman enough face?
Even in the Magic Continent, she is almost a figure below one person and above ten thousand.
That's right, this woman is the female demon who Downer once vowed to come to him when he left the Magic Continent, Lisa.
"What has delayed you for so long?" Donner said in a tone like a child who was found in a game of hide and seek, unwilling to admit his own food, but shirked and said: I didn't bother to hide at all, I didn't think it took you so long to find me.
"It's been a long time? Lisa kept laughing, clearly in good spirits.
Wesley had heard Donner say something about Lisa, and although he was inevitably wary of her, he saw that Donner was not flustered at all, nor did he give him any hints as he had done against his enemies in the past, so he stood aside and observed.
Alex's mood was completely different, in fact, he didn't know Lisa's specific identity, only heard his father introduce that this woman was a supreme person who could make the Medici family disappear completely with the touch of a finger.
Along the way, Alex had been careful with this woman, and even so, he had never seen the other person smile.
But the little duke in this small country in front of him can actually talk and laugh with this woman, and it sounds like this young duke is even ridiculing this woman.
He really couldn't imagine how such a powerful character could be inhabited in the edge corner of Middle-earth.
If Alex knew that the person in front of him not only knew him for a long time, but also had a special relationship with him, I don't know what he would think.
In fact, from Donner's point of view, it is also a very strange experience to stand face to face with Reiko's biological father like this, but to pretend that he doesn't know him at all.
In order to interrupt this feeling as soon as possible, Donner left Alex beside him and walked towards Lisa, saying, "Unfortunately, some friends are coming over today, or ...... Shall we choose another place?"
"No, it's good here," Lisa wasn't polite at all, "I kind of like this place, it's quiet." ”
Donner shrugged his shoulders, stretched out his hand and made a gesture of please, and said, "Then please inside......
Lisa turned slightly sideways and followed Donner into the hall, Donner didn't want her to walk behind him, so he slowed down, Lisa obviously saw what Donner meant, smiled and walked side by side with him.
......
Wesley's meeting room was furnished the same as it had been eight years earlier, and the Ball River could still be seen from the window, just as Donner and Lucia had met here.
Wesley and Alex didn't follow up, and now there are only Donner and Lisa in the room, if the two of them make a move, not to mention this small reception room, even Wesley's neighbors will inevitably be affected, but still like when he was outside, Donner didn't feel the killing intent on Lisa.
In fact, even if Lisa was hostile, Donner didn't care. Since returning to Middle-earth, he and Wesley have always worn a magic circle that is immune to psychic magical attacks, and Lisa poses little threat to him other than psychic magic.
"Just to make sure I'm not in the car, why frame a child?" he smiled and sat down.
Lisa covered her mouth and chuckled, staring at Donner's face, and said, "Don't you think that child's age is just right for the time you left the Magic Continent?"
"If you're telling the truth, why bother observing my expression?" Donner shook his head, "You just knew I was here, and that kid speaks a fluent Western......
The facts are clear, Lisa is cheating on Donner, and Donner sees through her thoughts at a glance.
Instead of being annoyed, Lisa smiled and leaned back in her chair, the expression on her face as if she was enjoying the feeling of meeting her opponents.
"You know what? You were so calm when you saw Alex. She looked at Donner with a grin.
"What are you going to say?" Donner shrugged.
"You pet...... Well, what is the Count now...... He's normal when he hears Alex tell his name, isn't it?" Lisa said, "And you, apparently too calm, are you unnatural, isn't it?"
"What the hell are you trying to say?" Donner's tone was a little impatient, "Do you think I won't see such a big star shield crest on the carriage?"
Lisa smiled, reached into her arms, pulled out a roll of paper, and threw it at Donner, saying, "If I hadn't gone to Nice, maybe I would have been deceived by you." ”
Donner took the paper roll and opened it, smiled and put it on the coffee table next to him, and didn't say anything, just looked at Lisa quietly.
On the paper was a painting, presumably based on a sculpture, and the three-dimensional sculpture was clearly the image he had in his incarnation of Kevin Bell.
"Know the man in the painting?" asked Lisa with a smile.
"Is that important?" asked Donner.
Now that Lisa has obtained this portrait of Kevin Bell and asks him about the people he had met when he first arrived in the Magic Continent, such as Alie and Phoebe, it is natural to conclude that he is Kevin Bell, and Donner has no need to put it on.
It's just that he can't figure out why Lisa bothered about this, whether it's just to prove that she didn't guess wrong.
"It's important to me, at least to prove that I guessed right in the first place. Lisa stared at Donner and said, "Don't you feel frustrated?"
Donner shook his head helplessly, spread his hands, and said, "Okay, you won, and then?" (To be continued.) )
