3. Favored by God?

Lilith, where did she go?

This is probably a question that Anne will never know. β†– There was no news, no farewell, and Lilith and her sister had not returned since they were in the church, when they hurried out.

Is it in danger?Or is it because of something important that she wants to leave temporarily? The sane Anne did not rush to ask, because not only Lilith was missing, but her sister was also missing, and on the other hand, a girl who claimed to be Lilith's eldest sister appeared, and Lucifer, who had always been clinging to Lilith, was now by her side.

What is the uneasiness that has been entrenched and has not dissipated? Lilith sometimes becomes not at all like the original her, and now that she has been away for so long, has she been herself?

At the end of the day, even a dinner party that comes to relax doesn't seem to have a relaxing effect at all.

"What's the matter, guest?"

Lilith!?

Ah, no...... If it were Lilith, she wouldn't have greeted herself like that. The girl in front of her is the daughter of the owner of this mansion, and even though she looks much younger than herself, she knows by feeling that she is very mature.

"Am I not being well entertained? Even if it's not for my father, I should forget about my worries and relax, right?"

"I'm sorry. ”

The clever girl, at a glance, already knows that she is only here for the simple purpose of relaxation.

"My name is Alice, would you mind walking with me?"

......

Alice?

The hand he was holding had an incomparably familiar feeling, for a moment. Anne actually felt that the girl next to her was the one she had been missing. Pity. When the eyes are cast. The illusion was shattered immediately.

It's different, whether it's voice or appearance, Alice is not her. Did I miss Lilith too much, or did the girl next to me feel too familiar to me?

"Your Royal Highness, are you worried about something?"

Alice's voice, to Anne, seemed to Anne to be heavenly, with the magic that made her pour out her heart involuntarily.

"You've been sitting there ever since you came. Even my useless brother didn't dare to approach you because he was afraid of the dull aura, right?"

"Brother?"

"Hey, yes, although he is a playboy, he is indeed a good brother. ”

Alice pointed to Barton, who was surrounded by women, "His name is Barton, Your Highness the Princess, is he interested in my brother?"

β€œ...... No. Not interested, ahh. Not so, sorry. Distraught, Anne forgot even the most basic words, and in order to divert the subject a little, she turned her gaze to the window.

"Is that your sister?"

"Well, that's my sweetest sister...... Alice paused, "Villar." ”

"What a happy family blessed by God, Alice. ”

"...... by God Look, that's how it should be. ”

Alice smiled lightly, "What worries Her Royal Highness the Princess, does it have anything to do with this?"

"My best friend is gone, and although there have been times when we haven't been able to see each other for a long time, this time it always feels like goodbye. ”

Anne came to the window, night had already fallen quietly, and Lilith at this time may be staring at the same night sky as herself. She is not the only person she can rely on, why does she still choose to bear the burden of her unclear alone?

"She was an orphan, and she depended on me a lot when she was younger, but it seems that one day she began to become withdrawn, and she would not tell me everything she knew, and sometimes she would not be like herself, me...... I'm worried about her. ”

......

"People are always changing. ”

After a long silence between them, Alice jumped lightly and sat down on the windowsill. While kicking his legs, he cast his eyes on the boundless night outside the window, and the white dress he was wearing seemed to be swallowed by this night.

"The world is not eternal. ”

Holding Anne's outstretched hand, Alice jumped off the windowsill again, but this ordinary action made Anne inexplicably relax a lot, "A small change will have an unimaginable impact on the future." Your friend, maybe he's just thinking about you? Or ...... Did she do something bad and feel that she didn't have the face to face Her Royal Highness again, or perhaps, she had forgotten Her Royal Highness?"

"Forget jì or something, how is it possible!"

Anne's voice was unusually loud, but she soon realized that it was just her own vent. Alice didn't say anything wrong, in fact, based on her own words alone, in the eyes of others, Lilith's approach was not just what she said?

"Sorry, I didn't mean to. ”

"It's all right, Your Highness Princess, because I can see that your friend seems to be important to you. ”

"Well, it's incredibly important. ”

Anne nodded, this was the only thing she could affirm without hesitation, maybe it was just a psychological comfort for herself, and while saying this, Anne's heart was also a lot smoother. But......

But......

"Immensely important...... Is it?"

Alice whispered Anne's reply, but her ensuing questioning left Anne hallucinating in her confusion.

"That is, your friends are more important than this country?"

This...... What kind of problem!?

For a moment, Anne even felt that Alice and Lilith had overlapped, and if it was really the worst possibility, Lilith would surely question herself like this.

Who is more important to her, her own country, feelings, or faith?

"You...... Who are you?" Anne held out her hand to Alice, but this time she was laughed and fled.

"Your Royal Highness Princess, it's better to have a good rest. I'm Alice. You. Is it a mistake to recognize something? ”

Alice leaned her face over again, as if to make Anne recognize the face of the girl in front of her.

Yes, it wasn't Lilith, although she had just asked a question that Lilith might ask.

And the answer is not at all.

"Well, then, I'm going to entertain the other guests, later. Come to my house often, Annie?"

......

Although she still resisted a little, the already wet skirt forced Claire to change her clothes.

Should I say lucky, or regretful? The girls' wardrobes here are all dressed or dressed, and Claire has finally experienced a thing that only the "upper class" can enjoy in her lifetime.

It's just that it seems that there are all kinds of pressures to enjoy these things.

Although it was only according to the appropriate Cheng dΓΉ of the figure, a dress was chosen at random. But after loosening her braids and hanging her long hair and walking out, Claire immediately felt all kinds of eyes.

This...... These guys have a few meanings in their eyes. Why do you look at yourself with a look of "it's a tomboy when you walk in, and a cute girl when you come out"? Even Watson ......

Ahh

"Claire, it's a shame you didn't pay attention to dressing up before. ”

Fei, who was tightly wrapped, first sent a compliment...... Ah, that's a compliment.

"You should get paid to buy a few clothes to wear later. ”

"Shall I say...... Thanks?" Claire cupped her forehead, "I'll wait until the day I'm really paid." ”

Because they once had a real "cooperative" relationship together, the relationship between Claire and Faye is not as bad as Claire said. It's just that the detectives who are famous in the city are not the only ones, in addition, there is also a "detective hooligan" who is known for his poisonous snakes and sarcasm.

"It turned out to be really Claire, and I thought I had cataracts. ”

Nia is such an uncoordinated and unforgiving guy, with a black umbrella in her hand that never leaves her all year round, and she is afraid that she even has to put it next to her pillow when she sleeps.

"It's obviously a girl's dress that's better than a trench coat, so why don't you 'buy' a few?"

"Nia, do you mean anything else when you say that you buy words like that?"

This guy ...... Don't you know that it is because she monopolizes most of the commissions that she makes her poor and can't even afford clothes?

"Ah, who knows?" said Nia, smirking, but soon, her smile was replaced by a serious expression.

The little girl named Alice came.

It seems that not only himself and Fei, but even Nia, a guy whose eyes are higher than the sky, has noticed it.

Dral's family, I'm afraid, is not what ordinary people seem. Generally speaking, in a family, the man who has the highest power is the man in charge of the house, and with a few exceptions, it is the woman who dominates.

However, in this family, the eldest daughter who seems to be called Alice occupies a lot of proportion. From the beginning of the banquet to the present, Draal and her wife, Eve, never seem to have left their positions at all, but are only responsible for talking to the guests who have reached out to them.

Although it is true that these guests who talk more or less with purpose make up a lot of proportions, Draal and Eve are fundamentally different from Alice, who is constantly shuttling and talking among the guests. Because it looks like Alice is the one who provokes the main beam of the banquet, and Draal and Eve are only responsible for a small part of the reception.

If this is really the case, then this upcoming opportunity cannot be snatched away by the two detectives next to him no matter what!

(Okay, that's right, I'm playing detective stream again, and this time I'll spend a volume on a case related to the plot later.) Hawkers, although I know I'm a detective, but if I don't practice, I will never be able to improve, right...... Anyway, I'll do my best. (To be continued......)
