Chapter 231: The Demon in the Dark
Hearing Ai Lulu say it so suddenly, Jiang Ember was stunned for a moment.
Miscellaneous...... What do you mean?
Don't go? Stay here with her tonight?
To tell you the truth, Jiang Yan is still quite familiar with such a request recently.
After all, after Anjie's stinky girl recently ate the marrow, she often dragged Jiang Ember to stay in her room, or slipped to Jiang Ye's bed at night.
As for what happened after that, it's not an outsider.
But you're ...... You're Ailulu, it's okay to learn Anjie's female hooligan style.
Thinking of this, Jiang Yan hurriedly shook his head and said, "This ...... This one...... It's not convenient, is it?"
"There's nothing inconvenient, don't you usually accompany me often."
"Huh? When will I ......?"
Just when Jiang Ember was thinking about how he usually accompanied Ai Lulu on a big night.
The girl's voice reached his head through the little powder.
"Today, when Aunt Bridges asked us what our relationship was, I said we were lovers, sorry, but it was also for safety."
After passing these words through Xiao Fan, Ellulu winked at Jiang Ember and motioned for him to cooperate with her.
To be on the safe side...... I see, she's quite good at thinking.
As soon as Ai Lulu said this, Jiang Ember also suddenly realized that this fabricated relationship was indeed beneficial.
I don't know why, but in any case, Elula seems to be very useful to the Rotten Wood Court.
Because of this, Briggis and the others shouldn't hurt Ellulu for the time being, at least not on the surface.
But even so, the two were always in the enemy's base camp.
No one dares to guarantee that the other party will use some insidious means to secretly poke and prod.
With this in mind, it's best for them to stay together all the time on weekdays, even when they rest at night.
And such a glue-like intimate relationship between a man and a woman is a couple no matter how you look at it, otherwise it will look very weird.
For Ai Lulu's "plan", Jiang Ember also expressed his approval very much.
So he nodded at the other party and said, "Originally, I thought this was your aunt's house, and I was embarrassed to sleep with you, so it seems that I don't need to care so much."
Seeing that Brother Jiang Ember understood what he meant, Ai Lulu was also a little relieved, and at the same time, there was a strange joy in her heart.
That's great...... He didn't misunderstand that I was a casual woman, and ...... And we can stay together at night, so we're sure to get a good night's sleep.
Although it doesn't seem obvious on the surface, Ailulu is actually a little uneasy in this situation.
After all, she is a more timid and timid type, especially when she encounters an accident, she is easy to panic.
Although he showed a rare strength in front of his aunt today, he only bottomed out and dug out the weird things in his heart.
So to let her rest alone in the unfamiliar enemy base camp would be more or less apprehensive.
It's good now, with Brother Jiang Ember sleeping with him at night, then you don't have to worry about anything.
Thinking of this, Ellulu patted her chest, which was much more predictable than it looked, and said with a smile:
"Well, then I'll go take a shower first, you can wait a minute."
As she spoke, she raised her hands and untied the emerald ribbon from her hair.
As soon as the ribbon was untied, the gorgeous long hair quickly fell behind the girl, adding a bit of feminine maturity to her at once.
Originally, Ailulu's main focus was a lively and cute girlish style, and it belonged to the type that was not easy to make people have strange ideas.
But when she untied her hair, hummed a song, picked up her dressing gown and went to the bathroom to take a shower.
Jiang Yan sat on the bed and looked at her back, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching slightly. It's not good, these days may be more difficult than I imagined, difficult in all aspects.
After sighing slightly, Jiang Yan also went to the bathroom in the other room to take a shower.
It is a well-known fact that the average woman always takes a little longer to take a shower than a man...... Or much longer.
So when Jiang Yan came back from taking a shower and changing into pajamas, the sound of water was still coming from Ailulu's bathroom.
Before she came back...... Anyway, let's go to bed first.
Since there is only one bed in the room, the two of them can only squeeze into one bed tonight.
Jiang Ember was naturally used to sleeping with other people, but he knew that Ai Lulu shouldn't be used to it.
So to avoid the shy shy of that timid girl.
Jiang Yan also lay down in the left corner intimately, and covered himself tightly with the quilt.
And while lying down, he also pressed the hedron light switch on the bedside, and the room returned to a state of darkness.
This should be fine, and when Ellulu comes back, she won't be able to see me anyway, so she should be able to lie down and rest more naturally.
Thinking of this, Jiang Ember couldn't help but nod and yawned slightly.
A lot of things happened during the whole day of the trip today.
From the delicious wild boar from the Boar's Ring to the manor of the headquarters of this rotten wood court.
Although the current situation is far beyond the expectations of the two at the beginning.
But once it comes, it is safe, and we still have to find a way to solve the problem in this situation.
I don't know when the Shadow Fiend guy will come back...... Forget it, it's a nocturnal creature anyway, so let it hang out and about.
After secretly complaining about his pet, Jiang Yan also closed his eyes and fell asleep in a daze.
But just as he was half asleep, he felt a pleasant fresh aroma rush into the room.
A light footstep paused slightly in the doorway, and then walked to the bed as little as possible to make a sound.
「……」
The figure sat silently on the bed, glanced at the humanoid bulge that was bulging on the bed, and then lifted the quilt and lay in.
The bed in the guest room of the manor annex is very large, and as long as the two people do not sleep very badly, they basically do not meet each other. Look at the book
So much so that Jiang Yan just felt a slight warm touch next to him, and there was some good aroma in his nose, so he fell asleep in a daze.
After noticing that Brother Jiang Yan had fallen asleep, Ai Lulu, who was lying on the bed, also breathed a sigh of relief, and a sweet smile rose at the corner of her mouth.
This sense of security...... Hehe, it's like returning to my mother's arms when I was a child, it's really addictive.
With a slight sigh, Ellulu yawned and soon fell asleep on her side.
Not long after, two long breathing sounds came from the guest room of the annex, indicating that both guests had fallen asleep.
When the sound was detected, a female druid who was watching outside the window couldn't help but yawn.
"It's so good, these two guys, some of you sleep, Miss Ben is going to stare at you all night, really."
The druid grumbled slightly, then turned her gaze to the dormitory not far away.
It would be nice if I could go back and get some beauty sleep, and if I lasted a few more days, my skin would definitely become ...... Ay?
Just when the female druid finished complaining and was about to turn around and continue to investigate through the window, a slanting wind suddenly blew from the originally half-open window!
The strange wind blew the half-open and half-closed window open violently! Seven or eight slender plant rattans with diamond-shaped leaves suddenly burst out of the window!
The posture of those jet-black rattans flying out is like a python catching its prey, which is unguardable!
Miscellaneous...... What! This is!
Before the female druid in charge of the reconnaissance could react.
The long black serpent had quickly wrapped around her body, and her mouth had become stronger
It was blocked on the spot, so that it couldn't make a sound!
The strength of this strange plant rattan is so great that even if the female druid struggles, she can't move at all!
"Hmm! Mmmm Uh-huh!"
She instinctively wanted to scream, to call her companions, but all she could do was let out an inaudible scream.
Just when the female druid felt numb all over her body, something strange happened.
A pair of emerald green pupils appeared beside the bed at some point.
Two green rays of light shot straight out of it, almost scaring the hapless watcher into wetting his pants on the spot.
The arrogant eyes seem to have no focus, and the eyes are indifferent, giving people a strong sense of oppression that treats all beings as nothing.
This...... This is definitely not human eyes, how can humans have such terrible eyes!
At this moment, the moonlight happened to shine into the windowsill from this angle, and the female druid also saw the person standing by the window inside.
When she saw the owner of the pair of eyes, before the unlucky bastard's eyes widened and she was about to shake her head and beg for mercy, she saw that a large number of spikes had suddenly burst out from the plants that were entwining her body!
Burst! Yes!
Sharp spikes pierced the female druid's body directly from all sides.
At the last moment, when the blood left from her forehead soaked her eyes, she showed a look of fear and confusion.
You...... What the hell are you ....... What the hell is ......
Before he died, the hapless watcher didn't even have the strength to ask the question.
All she felt was darkness in front of her, and then it was as if she had sunk into a bottomless abyss.
Sink....... Sink...... Sink...... Forever.
When the female druid had just finished her life's journey.
The figure that had spawned a mass of spiked rattans from its sleeves and killed the watcher waved his hand slightly, throwing it out like garbage.
This throw directly threw the carcass hundreds of meters away and threw it outside the fence of the manor.
Immediately afterwards, the window was tightly closed again, and the man dropped the curtain from inside.
The sound of breathing in the room was always so quiet, as if nothing had happened.
Of course, since there have been deceased, it is naturally impossible to assume that nothing has happened.
Early the next morning, members of the Rotten Wood Court found the torn body outside the manor.
When the corpse was discovered, the subordinate members did not dare to make a noise, but quickly brought it back to Lord Grizzly to decide.
"You mean...... This body was found outside the manor?"
"Yes, the other two monitors said they didn't hear anything and had no idea when she was killed."
Looking at the horrific corpse and listening to the report of his subordinates, the grizzly bear couldn't help but feel a tingling in his scalp.
The deceased was one of the three druids sent to monitor Her Highness and the head of the direction of the south window.
It is hard to imagine that such a veteran would die so quietly that even the other two Ombudsmen did not notice it.
God, what the hell is going on? Did the two of them do it?
For a grizzly bear with a big head and a thick neck, this kind of brain-using work is really not suitable for him.
Fortunately, the Grand Governor Bridges also quickly arrived at the scene and checked on the hapless corpse.
Originally, for Bridges, she was in a pretty good mood this morning...... Until the corpse is seen.
"It's ...... What a ruthless method...... Hmph."
After examining the wounds of the female druid, even a ruthless person like Briggis couldn't help but feel a little numb.
The cause of death of this unfortunate bastard looks like it was been
A bunch of sharp plants pierced directly from all angles, but it wasn't.
Speaking of which, even she herself may not believe that the real cause of death of her subordinate was poisoning.
Hearing this, the grizzly bear couldn't help but widen his eyes, scratched the back of his head and said, "Poisoned? It's not ...... Didn't he be stabbed to death?"
"On the surface, it does look like she was stabbed to death, but the poison attached to the murder weapon that pierced her was so strong that she died of poison before she bled too much and her organs failed."
Bridges couldn't help but shake her head as she spoke, a little scared in her heart.
If you think about it, you can stab people all over the body and kill them with such a serious injury.
It can be seen how exaggerated the poison on these murder weapons is, and to put it mildly, it is death at the touch of a button.
It was so poisonous that few of the poisons Briggis knew could match it.
But the most important thing now is not how strong the toxicity is, but who actually did it.
After scratching his head, Grizzly whispered, "Archmaster, do you mean....... The two of them did it?"
Because only two foreign guests were admitted to the courtyard yesterday, the murder occurred that night, and the deceased was one of the three people in charge of monitoring them.
Then wouldn't this murderer be able to imagine with his ass, who else would there be if it wasn't for the two of them?
But after listening to Grizzly's words, Bridges frowned, and after thinking for a while, she shook her head and said:
"Not necessarily, this method of killing is entirely used by the druids of the Forest Pastoral Society, Hannibal is not a druid, and Ellulu ...... It's even more impossible for her to do that."
It's not that Briggis trusts Ellulu in particular, the point is that she doesn't think Ellulu has the strength to kill the Ombudsman silently.
After all, she knows Ailulu's strength, and the kind of rookie who hasn't even arrived at the "elite druid" is not qualified to do such a big thing.
But even so, it is impossible for Bridges to wash away the suspicion of the two like this...... So she decided to go for an interview.
