Chapter 21: The Mist
Fog
Moro slept very unsteadily, she had not slept in this room for almost ten years, the mattress and pillows were too soft for her to get used to, she simply got up and sat down, lit the lamp and rang the bell.
After waiting for a while, a maid who didn't quite recognize herself and said, "Bring a cup of blood, thank you." Mo Luo subconsciously raised his eyes to look at her, the little maid trembled slightly, Mo Luo was a little surprised, but he didn't pay much attention.
After standing all night and coping with it all night, she felt very tired, but she couldn't sleep, so she took out her mother's diary and read it slowly, and she flipped through it many times, and always felt that something was wrong, because her mother's diary came to an abrupt end and the book was still mostly blank, and there were many missing pages, but this was the only relic about her mother, or she picked it up unintentionally.
She had only turned five or six pages, and the maid had already come in with a cup of blood.
"Your Highness, the food you wanted." As soon as the little maid's voice fell, a cup of blood spilled directly on the bed, staining a large piece of the sheets and bedspreads, and even a few drops of her mother's diary.
Mo Luo held the diary, and the precious middle handkerchief was stained with blood, and he was a little distressed.
"Your Highness, please spare me, please spare me, I didn't mean to." The little maid fell to her knees and trembled.
"I don't blame you, you get up, why are you so scared, I look serious?" Moro is even more strange, although he has not returned to the palace of Ales for ten years, but the rules are still remembered clearly, Eliad has always been gentle to his subordinates, and he is not very good at blaming for some small mistakes, but he didn't expect this servant girl to be so scared now.
"No, no, I didn't mean that." The maid thought she had said the wrong thing and was even more frightened.
"Get up, it's okay."
The little maid did not move or speak, but knelt and picked up the pieces of the glass and put them in the palm of her hand.
Mo Luo couldn't stand it and got up and squatted down, patting the glass in her hand, "Don't take it directly with your hands, it will cut your hands." ”
"Your Highness...... You ......"
"What's wrong?"
"You won't punish me?" A look of doubt appeared on the maid's face.
"I haven't lived in the palace for eight years, I don't know what your rules are now, it's just a broken cup, it's okay, why are you so scared?" She was equally confused.
"I ......"
"It's okay, it's inconvenient to say it, forget it, you go get another glass, I'll clean it up here." She saw the waiter's hesitation, and she no longer felt sorry for her.
"But ......" The little maid looked a little at a loss.
"Go."
Mo Luo took a silk handkerchief and picked up the glass pieces one by one, although there were many rules and strict hierarchies in the palace, it would not scare a maid like this with a cup of blood.
"Your Highness, ......" The maid was surprised to see Mo Luo kneeling on the ground and picking up the fragments by herself.
"Okay, I'll clean up, you change the bed, and if anyone asks you to go out, say I smashed it myself. But tell me, why are you so scared? She didn't want to ask, but she felt that things didn't seem to be so simple, she hadn't returned for ten years, and it was not a bad thing to know something earlier.
"Because...... In the past, when a maid was delivering food, she hit Lord Adler and smashed Lord Adler's blood bottle, and the blood was splashed on the broken bottle, and as a result, the maid was never seen again, Your Highness just came back, I thought you were noble, and you must be stricter, I'm afraid...... I've soiled your bed and you've soiled your stuff, and you're going to punish me. The maid gritted her teeth and pulled it out.
Moro picked up the blood in the tray and drank it down, remembering the blood vial, remembering that he had been taken by the blood hunter a few days ago, and then continued to ask, "Lord Adler is also so strict on weekdays?" ”
"Yes." The maid nodded in horror, as if she had remembered some bad memory.
"Oh yes." She nodded, handing her the cup she had drunk, "You just said the blood vial?" When was it? ”
"Yes, it was a few months ago."
"What kind of blood vial? Valuable? ”
"I've heard it's a very ordinary blood vial."
"Oh?" She raised an eyebrow, maybe the blood of someone important.
"But I've heard that the vial is not filled with blood, but with a bloody cat's claw."
"Cat's paw?" She was horrified, remembering that she had been scratched by a cat once in Mister.
"It's also possible that the dog's paw, the slave hasn't seen it with her own eyes, these things are pretty much the same."
"Yes, you're right. I've been away from the palace for a long time, and I can't sleep at night, but since Lord Adler is strict, you should be careful, and don't talk about these things, you know? She gently admonished.
"Yes."
"Then please help me change the bed, change a harder cushion and pillow, this is too soft for me to sleep in."
"Yes."
She flipped through the diary in her hand and found that there was something different, this diary was almost familiar to her, and then opened the text and changed it, because ...... Blood?
I searched for the secret of the diary that I hadn't discovered for nearly two years, and the way to open it turned out to be blood.
The beginning of the diary started from the military academy, and the beginning has not changed from before, except that a person is mentioned many times in the diary - Mevis, but before that, there was no word about Mewes from beginning to end in this diary as if it was deliberately hidden, and now in this new diary, Mevis seems to play the role of Dolores next to Morrow, and is inseparable from her mother Vera, but she has never heard anything about Mevis, and the most important thing and what surprised her is that it describes some of her mother- It can be called jealousy, dark thoughts, and the appearance of her mother that she has never seen before. And these words have a tendency to intensify, and her heart is frightened when she reads it, and a chill runs down her spine. Continue to look down, the diary once again returned to the record of the running account, the mother's friendship and thoughts, she originally thought that the relationship between the mother and the father is now completely different, the original diary came to an abrupt end here, originally thought that the mother would not have time to write a diary when she started the trial, but this brand new diary actually continued, of course, the mother and Eliad successfully completed the trial, but Mavis did not complete it, there is nothing special or strange about it, everything is going logically, The next thing should be the experience of going to the human world, Mo Luo's finger stayed on the next page of the diary, but at this time, the maid who had just sent blood came in to change the bed, and she closed the diary casually.
I opened the diary again, and it was back to the same state.
Mo Luo was a little flustered, and the clue was interrupted again, she scratched her finger again and dripped it onto the diary, but it had no effect, and the few drops of blood that had splashed on it just now disappeared, did it have to be human blood?
It's a pity that the cup of blood was drunk by myself without a drop left, and the torture maid in the middle of the night was a little unbearable, not to mention that there would be doubts about so much blood at night, so I could only wait until tomorrow.
Early the next morning, the maid brought breakfast again, and Morrow couldn't wait to drip the blood on the diary, but there was no response, and after several drops, there was no response.
The only clue was interrupted again, and she almost went crazy.
Mayvis, Mayvis, Mayvis, I've never heard of such a name, my mother's diary never mentions a surname, only a name, maybe this person knows something? But what happened?
Roland slammed a blood vial with his name tag on the wall, and the blood in the vial exploded on the wall with a thud, blooming with blood.
The woman in front of her was fearless and even had a smile on her face, "What's wrong, angry?" But a small joke. ”
"Adler, my cooperation with you is limited to this, you should know where my bottom line is, no matter what you and my father plan, in my place, Moro is the bottom line." Roland's eyes were on fire, obviously furious.
"Self-deception." Adler smiled even brighter, "Your bottom line is not to let her see what kind of person you are?" Don't mess with me, or I'll tear off your hypocritical brother's mask and show her what you're doing!" ”
Roland punched the bloody wall, completely different from his usual calm and gentle him, "I can also leak your identity at any time, you know it very well." ”
"Try it, what do I say now is also the mistress of Eliad, who outsiders believe." Her voice was frivolous and profligate, and her slender eyes were full of sarcasm.
"Your Excellency, the newspaper you wanted."
Lorenzo glanced at the daily newspaper Sabaite, and couldn't take his eyes off it, the contents of the newspaper - Moro Ales attended the banquet of the demon party for the first time.
She was wearing a black dress and only a blue irise, and the moment she looked back, he suddenly grabbed the newspaper and crumpled it into a ball and smashed it out, and her beautiful face was instantly torn apart and scattered on the ground.
She said she was a liar.
But he didn't believe it.
"Why are you so angry?" It was Enzo who came in, picking up the newspaper on the ground, and Lorenzo rarely made such a drastic move.
"I heard that at the Demon Party banquet last night, the two heirs appeared, and now this situation is interesting, what about the secret party, you and Lu Sifan are fighting for the throne, and the demon party is also two heirs, what is the name of the heir of Ales, Mo Luo?"
Didn't want to hear the name, then Enzo brought it up again.
"Shut up." He scolded coldly, and his face was not good.
"What did I say wrong?" Enzo looked innocent.
Unfolding the newspaper thrown on the ground, Enzo looked at it, "Isn't this your little beauty hiding in Mister?" OMG! She's Morro Ales! ”
Lorenzo regained his composure and looked up at him coldly, "Yes." ”
"Right? Did you already know or did you just know? Enzo was uncharacteristically calm, and the question became to the point.
Lorenzo didn't pay any attention to him and didn't answer, "What are you doing here?" ”
"Oh, look at this." Enzo remembered what he was here for.
"What?"
"Our people have inquired about Hetai."
Lorenzo's eyes hurriedly swept over the document stamped with fire paint that Enzo brought, the fire paint seal was intact, Lorenzo opened the file, glanced at it and said, "Xitai has just completed the third layer of awakening, and he used a murder key. ”
"So now Xitai's power has increased again." Enzo is rare and straight. "If I'm not mistaken, the next thing they're looking for is the Rotten Bracelet."
Lorenzo nodded thoughtfully, "The rotten bracelet recorded in the book was originally owned by Xitai, and then it was transferred to the hands of the Demon Party several times, and an elder of the Demon Party at that time sealed Xitai with Xitai's own holy weapon, and since then, the holy weapon has been scattered everywhere after the Holy War, but I don't think the rotten bracelet will be too far from the Demon Party." ”
"Their speed is getting faster and faster, we can't just sit idly by, the rotten bracelet that Xitai will use to complete the third layer of awakening has not yet appeared, if there is another outbreak of a great plague in the human world."
"We don't have the whereabouts of the rotten bracelet for the time being, and I will hurry up to find out." Enzo looked down at the Daily Sabate in his hand again, "Last time you cleaned up the Hittai in Mister City, it wasn't just for her. ”
"Why do you think so?" Lorenzo frowned.
Enzo looked a little proud, like a child discovering an adult's secret, "Then why did you inexplicably send someone to monitor the movement of a broken ship that went to the demon party?" My silly brother? ”
Lorenzo pretended to be unhappy and scolded, "Now you have a lot of skills, even take care of my business?" ”
"Didn't that Orlando guy tell me that you went crazy looking for someone, and finally violently swept all of Mister's Hittitarians and alarmed Leonard, and finally locked himself in this shabby apartment of Mister and didn't go out? Your subordinates can't find you, don't you come to me? Otherwise, who wants to mind your private affairs? I still have a lot of beautiful women going on dates all day, and those people on your secret team are just annoying! Enzo said cleanly, and finally asked tentatively as if he didn't believe it, "You...... Really in love with her? ”
After being silent for a long time, his frowns tightened to indicate his displeasure at the moment, and then he slowly spoke: "Hmm." ”
"Lorenzo, you know who she is, you remember who she is!"
He paused, and seemed to be able to hear great patience, "Moro Ales." ”
Enzo put away his hippie smile at his brother and said, "If she is just a demon party, then it is nothing to have a mistress, but she is the daughter of Eliad and the heir of Ales, maybe you can only meet her as the leader of the secret party and the leader of the demon party." ”
"I love her, I can give up a lot of things, including the position of the leader of the secret party, I don't want to, she is only twenty years old, but I have never met such a woman in my life for a thousand years, I have never given my sincerity, but when I see her, I just want to be with her desperately...... But she told me that she didn't love me, she just lied to me, but I didn't believe it, some things can deceive people, and some things can't. ”
