Chapter 48: The Crow
Sibylla sped out of the restaurant, fled to a corner intersection, and disappeared without a trace.
Sibylla's disappearance took with him the sleeping crows on the roof, and they disappeared in the same spot as Sibylla.
Mir's eyes were fixed on the gloomy sky outside the window, and it was approaching twilight, and the raven spread its dark arms, flapping its wings, and swept across the air.
Ruili didn't chase after her, but was thinking about what Mir had said to herself, to keep herself away from Chris.
Her eyes fell on Chris's handsome face, and she didn't notice anything wrong with Chris, but why did Sibylla run away after Chris finished speaking, or if Sibylla encountered something even weirder, such as a ghost.
She thinks Sibylla can sense evil things, but Chris is not a ghost, let alone some evil devil.
Her affection for Chris eventually turns into curiosity, and she now begins to listen to Mir, who must have an unspeakable secret to keep herself away from Chris.
As much as she wanted to know about the secret, Mir would never tell herself, and she needed to find a time to ask Martin and Vincent.
"It's gone, Miss Ruili, and I don't want to go to the river to feed the fish." Martin said, glancing at his fingers.
Ruili closed her eyes and sighed, "Don't worry, Martin, I will never do this." ”
Almost everyone sat around a table, waiting for a while, and the old man was not seen to bring the food out.
Vincent touched his hungry stomach and asked, "Sir, why don't you see anything to eat?" ”
"Please be patient, Mr. Zhu Nieer." Chris replied, "The old man must be very slow in making our food alone. ”
"Do you need to wait until it gets dark? Inspector Louie? Martin leaned back in his chair, his eyes occasionally catching up on Ruili's face.
Chris shook his head and said, "Almost, an hour or two, maybe a little longer." ”
"What? Inspector Louie, it's going to rain in a moment, how do you get us out of here? Observing the weather, Vincent said, "I am afraid that I will not have enough time to take Miss Matilda home, to make a trip to the slave market, and finally to visit Father Cavendish at the end." ”
Chris glanced out the window and said, "You can go first, Vincent, finish your business first, and then come back here, Miss Matilda and I will personally send her back as soon as possible, she is my own sister." ”
Vincent looked at Chris in surprise, he didn't expect Matilda to be Chris's own sister, he was like being hit by lightning, and he was in a state of dementia.
His imagination of Matilda has been extinguished, his confidant can't do it, and he can't be favored by Matilda, Chris will definitely make a choice between himself and Mir, she is a noble lady of France after all.
If he had been promoted to the clergy of the church, he would not have been able to intermarry, and now that he has been approved by Father Cavendish for his promotion, his path to promotion will be clear.
He soothed for a moment and said, "Thank you, Inspector Louie. ”
Vincent's eyes were so devastated that he looked at Matilda again, and then he said goodbye to Mir and left the restaurant.
When Vincent left the dining room, the crows flew back to the roof, and they landed where they were.
This scene was seen by Mir again, and he frowned slightly, he could not understand the reason why the crow had returned to the roof.
The mournful chirping of the crows resounded in the air, and Mir was a little irritated to shoot them down one by one with a flintlock pistol.
They chirped and chirped, revealing a bit of desolation, as if they were tearing their throats and screaming loudly, which was creepy.
"Damn! They give me a headache. Mir's spirit was a little dazed, his eyes were foggy, and he looked at the people around him, as if he had a ghost.
They sneered wickedly at Mir, who shook his head vigorously as if he was drunk.
At this moment, the crow's cry stopped, and Mir felt much better for a moment, he didn't know why the crows had such a great effect on him, the sound they made had affected his own brain waves.
"Can I chase them away? Chris. Mill said with his eyes closed.
"Of course, you can knock them down with a flintlock pistol." The corners of Chris's mouth showed an extremely evil arc, and his expression, except for Mir, they didn't notice the change in Chris.
Chris's white eyes flashed again, like a devil, with a menacing look in his eyes, and his mouth was spitting a cloudy gas, wrapping around Mir's body.
Suddenly, a strong smell shattered Mir's illusion, and the old man stood beside Mir with a plate of fragrant delicacies in his hand, and then, he took all the delicacies from behind, put them on the table, and pushed them in front of them.
"What is this?" Ruili asked in surprise.
Mir slowly opened his eyes, hearing Ruili's question, he looked at the food in front of him, and was stunned.
"OMG!" Mill exclaimed.
He didn't believe that the meat on the plate was edible, it looked like a chicken, and it looked like a bird.
The food on the plate is just dehaired, and its appearance is not special in any way.
It lay quietly on a white plate, its wings spread out, its beak extremely sharp, but despite this, Mir felt like a roasted crow, especially the ones on the roof.
The tender red flesh exudes a rich fragrance that is mouth-watering, and you can't help but smack your lips.
"What kind of meat is this? Chris? Mir asked curiously.
Chris pointed to the roof and said, "Crow meat, this is the most special cooking skill of the restaurant owner, and he is the only one in the whole of France who makes the most authentic." ”
Except for Chris, no one had ever tasted crow meat, and they stared at each other with wide eyes, and the strange food was hard to swallow.
While tasting the deliciousness of the crow meat, Chris spit out the bones and said, "Have a nice meal!" ”
Such an ominous thing made them nauseous and retching, and although some condiments were added to the crow meat, they were almost far away from Chris, which was extremely incredible.
"Where did they come from? Inspector Louie. Ruili stood aside and asked, she was very disgusted with Chris now, because Chris ate the crow, which would bring punishment and punishment to Chris.
"I don't know." Chris shook his head and said, "You can go and ask the old man in the restaurant, the food is made by him." ”
"Inspector Louie, they're messengers, you know what that means." Ruili said with some annoyance.
Chris ate the crow on the disc and said, "Yes, I know, I have been tainted with sinful flesh." ”
