Chapter 32: This Time, I Won (3.3k)
It's OK!
Since the other party's surname is the same as the information given by the barrage, it is almost completely certain that the other party is definitely related to the Rose Society.
It's just, confirmed, what's the point?
The person has hung the street lamp, and after his identity is exposed, his personal information has also been cleaned.
With no father, no mother, no relatives, the old lady who sells bread on Guanghui Street is the person he communicates with the most, and after the old lady heard that the person who often came to the store to buy bread was a murderer, she didn't spit it out in one breath, and buried it not long after.
In general, this gentleman surnamed Brest, in this world, is completely alone, if he hadn't done such an earth-shattering thing, it is estimated that he would have died in a stinky ditch for several days before being found.
To sum up, the information brought by Erin really doesn't seem to make much sense.
Thinking back on the relevant information, Lynn focused her eyes on what the barrage called "ritual".
The barrage said that the murderer was sacrificed for the ceremony.
Could it be that he killed so many people in order to complete the "resurrection ceremony" of the Rose Society?
Lynn couldn't guess.
He didn't know what the so-called "resurrection ritual" was and what the steps were, so there was no way to reverse the proof and find clues based on this key point.
However, since it is a resurrection, the steps in it are definitely related to the god of lust/sin.
In the more than 3,000 years of human history, there are many legends about the resurrection.
There are different ways and types, but there is only one thing that is present in all legends.
- If you want to resurrect someone, there must be something that is extremely important to the resurrected object in the prepared ritual.
It's just that Lynn doesn't know much about the god of lust/sin, so he doesn't know what this "important thing" is.
"Let's find the relevant information first......
Putting the thought aside for a moment, Lynn put her smile back on her face.
"Erin, thank you."
"Your information is very helpful to me."
"In that case." Erin smiled and said, "Are you okay at night?" β
"Yesterday in the sea of imaginary numbers, I found a magic that suited me very well, and I want to use my time tonight to master it....... But. Lynn said lightly, "If it's your invitation or something to study, it's okay to put it down for the time being." β
β.......β
The smile on Erin's face froze suddenly.
Lynn's answer was a little different from what she had imagined.
According to her understanding, in the face of her invitation, Lynn will either refuse directly without saying a reason, or will agree in one go.
Squinting slightly, Erin put on a smile again and said, "Since it is an extremely suitable magic, it is naturally better to master it as soon as possible, and my invitation does not need to be so anxious." β
The girl's words seem to be full of generosity, full of understanding for each other.
With her eyes wandering, Erin spoke again.
"That's right. Recently, you've been in the limelight, and you've been connecting with the Sea of Imaginary Numbers in just thirteen minutes, and you've set an unprecedented record......."
She stared at Lynn, her pretty eyes filled with curiosity, as if to say, "When did you become so powerful."
However, her next sentence suddenly changed her words.
"Your excellence has attracted a lot of people." She smiled and said, "In the past two days, many people have come to me to ask for information about you." β
"That posture, as if I am scrambling to marry you."
As a member of the Kahlan family, and Erin's social means are quite rich, so in the so-called "upper circle", she is not like the Blazer family, everyone shouts and beats, but is quite famous, and many aristocratic ladies of her age have a faint tendency to be led by her.
For those aristocratic ladies who are held in the palm of their hands, the attraction of excellent and handsome boys can definitely overshadow the "ugly reputation" that they have not looked at directly.
Hearing Erin's words, Lynn's heart sank and said, "How come, don't they know....... Our relationship? β
"What if you know" Erin gave him a blank look, her voice full of contempt and disdain, "In the 'tricks' of the 'nobles', this kind of thing is just the most inconspicuous thing, don't you know? β
β.......β
"Ugh." Erin sighed suddenly, frowning slightly, "Lynn, you are getting better and better now, but I am still mediocre......"
Lynn's eyes were slightly condensed.
Erin is obviously joking when she says she's mediocre.
As far as he knew, the second person to establish a connection with the sea of imaginary numbers after himself was Erin; And the last time the waterspout was actively triggered by the sea of imaginary numbers, Erin held on for nearly seven minutes!
If you remove his false twenty-one minutes, then in the academy now, the one who is praised is definitely Erin, who is both beautiful and talented.
But why, with such a high talent, does she use words to belittle herself?
Lynn looked at Erin and raised her head slightly, and whispered, "You are getting better and better, flying higher and higher, sometimes, I am really afraid that you will leave me like a kite with a broken string." β
"How so?" Lynn smiled softly and said softly, "Since you regard me as your choice and have given me so much help, how can I easily forget this attention?" β
"My Choices......
Erin stared straight at him, "Really? Won't leave me? β
"If you don't chase me away..."
"So, will you always be on my side? Even if....... Become enemies with many people, and you will also help me? β
Lynn squinted and smiled softly.
"If, you wish."
Closing her eyes, Erin took a few deep breaths and smiled.
"Thank you."
After a pause, she continued, "Since you have something to do in the evening, go back early." β
"I'm looking forward to it, you've been standing at the top and looking down on the way everyone else looks."
Lynn smiled again, stood up, and bowed slightly.
"I hope I don't disappoint you."
With that, he turned and left.
Erin looked at his back, a hint of concealment flashing in her eyes.
"I hope so."
She muttered word by word, word by word.
.......
[It's weird.] γ
[Yes, I feel that the atmosphere just now is so strange and strange. γ
[It's like a very important oath to sign and swear allegiance, but why, I have a feeling I can't ......]
"The reason is simple."
Inside the carriage, Lynn looked at the barrage and said softly, "It's just because I'm not 'sincere' enough." β
[Huh? What do you mean? γ
Gently knocking on the handrail of the carriage, Lynn did not directly answer the barrage's questions, and said lightly: "Actually, if it weren't for special circumstances, Erin wouldn't have asked me these questions." β
"Erin is extremely strict with her own requirements, but asking about her 'fiancΓ©' is one of them - but not asking, it doesn't mean she doesn't know."
"Have you noticed, in fact, that Erin has always wanted to control meβnot the kind of control that everything has to be done according to her request, but that all my information, no matter how big or small, has to be in front of her, and there can't be anything she doesn't know."
[It seems to be ....... It does feel that way. γ
[What a terrible desire to control, scared. γ
γ(ο½·ο½οΎΠοΎΒ΄)!! γ
After a pause, Lynn continued: "In fact, the relationship between me and Erin, I am the weaker party, and with Erin's ability, it is easy to achieve information control. β
"However, from the day you linked to the Sea of Imaginary Numbers, your appearance made a blank space appear in Erin's message to me."
"And this also led to the fact that later, when I invited her to an appointment because of the Rose Association, she would make such a move and catch me off guard."
"That confrontation came too suddenly, and I was defeated as an inexperienced person - the moment she said those words, I actually really felt 'grateful' to her, even if it was only extinguished for a moment, but it still showed my defeat."
"Just one bit, I'm really 'doing what she wants.'"
Tapping on the armrest, Lynn continued: "Since I've already lost once, I can't make any more mistakes, and I'm very happy with my performance today." β
[Wait a minute, what's the performance?] γ
Lynn smiled and said, "When she saw Fenix-san, she was obviously confused by her presenceβshe didn't know a person named Alyssa Fenix, and this person appeared next to me. β
"Erin has always considered herself to be a perfect being who is extremely good in every aspect, whether it is her appearance, her way of behaving, or her own strength, except for me, she has always maintained the leading position of her peers - even I am 'attached' to her."
"But today, there was an accident."
"But in terms of appearance, Fenix-san is not inferior to Erin at all, and the fact that she can sit across from me and talk to me proves that she definitely has her own merits - Erin thinks that I don't talk to idiots."
"Therefore, she has a 'sense of crisis' about the existence of Fenix."
"Because this matter does not exist in the information she controls, she finds that the gap in the information about me has become more and more wide."
"It was this 'sense of crisis' that made her emotions ripple, so that she asked the next series and wanted me to be loyal to her."
[Help,Am I really looking at the gal worldview? This also ...... It's too brain-burning!! γ
[Normal, between people, isn't it intrigue. ] γ
[Though but....... Didn't you finally say yes to her? γ
"Did I say yes?" Lynn asked rhetorically, "What did I say to her?" β
[How could it be........ If you don't kick me out....... If you wish.......γ
[These words, although they are not directly agreed, are they almost the same? γ
"Much worse." Lynn said lightly, "If I want to leave and she won't let me go, then I'll let her help me go; If she wants me to do something and I don't want to do it, then I'm ...... Help her don't want. β
[I'm super! (#`Oβ²)γ
[This is, is the master a trick? γ
"Of course, all of the above is just the process of Erin testing me to fight back against me this time." Lynn squinted and smiled, "In general, the cause of this incident was because a strange Fenix classmate appeared next to me, but I didn't tell her who Fenix was and how she was with me. β
"She wanted to know, but I just wouldn't tell her, and kept it until the end, and let her have no way to take me."
[In this way, Erin will be angry, right?] After that, your relationship .......]
Lynn laughed, "Erin wouldn't be so easily angry. β
"She has always demanded of herself as a 'perfect woman', and this thing cannot make her emotions fluctuate, but only makes her think about what kind of words to use to restrain me next time, so that I have no room for maneuver."
"Whatever she'll do next time, this time."
"I won."
