Maybe it's out of emotion, or maybe it's because of guilt...... Anyway, before Killie could leave, Varina stopped her.

At the door of the room, he took Qi Li into his arms, touched her fluffy and slightly curly soft brown hair, and said softly:

"You've been so nice to me, thank you."

Varina soon regretted his impulsive move.

He could feel Qi Li's body stiffen for a moment before quickly softening, her hands behind her back, completely melted into his arms.

Impulsive moves appeared.

Immediately afterward, Varina felt the temperature in his arms rise rapidly, as if he were carrying a stove in his arms.

The desire in his heart surged up, making his eyes seem to glow green.

Fortunately, Varina's temperance skills are no longer what they used to be, and he finds himself before he is lost, and with the help of the "prisoner's ring" on his right index finger, he transforms the surging desire into a strong will.

Then he pushed the witch out of his bosom and whispered:

"Good night."

Qi Li was stunned, then lifted her blushing pretty face and swept her gaze over Varina's face.

"Good night."

Finally, she withdrew her gaze and went back to her bedroom.

Qi Li didn't understand, she clearly felt Varina's strong respect, but why she rejected her.

This time it wasn't her intention to seduce, it was clearly his own initiative.

Maybe it's going to take some time...... She believed she had found the right solution...... Just like she had just done, she was already standing in the doorway.

After sending off the witch, Varina is also reflecting.

He realizes that he hasn't thought of Qili as a witch for a long time;

He found that just saying that he knew Qili, in fact, his feeling was getting better and better;

He found that what really brought him back to his senses this time was the fear of "pleasure".

Because of the existence of a so-called "negative personality", Varina is very careful about any ability that can affect his personal will, and does not dare to get involved in the slightest.

Russell is a lesson in point!

It's because he's too casual, too prodigal, and doesn't know what weird things he has touched, so he will become the last paranoid and crazy look little by little, even to the extent that he can't even stand his own daughter.

"Pleasure" was an ability he knew, but he didn't know enough about it now.

And there have been cases where "pleasure" can indeed affect people's will and thoughts.

Well, even if it is slight, Varina should keep a distance from it.

After all, the embankment of a thousand miles collapsed in the anthill, and if he encountered any pollution or something weird in the future, he could turn the tables with just a little willpower, wouldn't he cry to death.

After thinking about it, Varina rolled over and fell asleep again, struggling to get rid of Qili's influence before falling asleep.

……

Sunday the 14th.

Varina got up early as usual, and disappeared as soon as it dawned.

After more than an hour, it wasn't until it was eight o'clock that Qi Li lazily opened the door and walked out.

After making sure Varina was out again, she pursed the corners of her lips slightly.

After another half an hour, she changed into a classical dress, put on a gauze hat, and went out for breakfast.

On the way, she bought a copy of the Daily Observer from the newsboy, intending to read about Varina's experience in the previous days.

Without looking, she saw Varina's photo appear on the front page at a glance.

Of course, there are four people in the photo, Varina is a supporting role, and standing in the middle C position is, of course, two young people with prominent families, Waldden and Roger.

In the photo, they are smiling, holding each other with their right hands, and holding together a large open jewelry box with their left hands, which contains the diamond necklace called "La Mer Heart".

Varina and another middle-aged man with a brownish complexion could only stand behind them.

As she put the soft muffins in her mouth, she read the manuscript written by Mike Joseph's reporter.

Only then did she realize that these days Varina was not just trying a bounty mission, as he said.

He directly forged an identity, the identity of a veteran bounty hunter.

“…… Clearly, the bounty hunter Lexa was trusted by both gentlemen, and I have reason to believe that he made a rather important contribution to their reconciliation. ”

“…… Although I don't have a lot of contact, I think Mr. Lexar is a very good bounty hunter, with great ability, strong words, and affability. The most important thing is that he is still young! ”

Qili couldn't help but read Mike's description of Varina again, and she was in a good mood, happier than hearing others praise her.

Even so, she felt a little dissatisfied.

She felt that the bounty hunter Lexa, described by Mike's reporter, was still far less good than Varina himself; I still feel that Mike's reporter's photography skills are not good, and he failed to capture Varina's unique temperament.

……

Joe Wood District, Shure Shooting Club.

Varina put down the newspaper in his hand, pleased with the report from Mike's reporter.

The main content of the entire press release is still narrating the lace news that lasts for many days, and there is less space about him himself, which will not let him receive too much attention;

Of course, he appeared in the photo after all, and Mike's reporter also spent pen and ink to introduce him.

In addition, this is the hottest lace news after the New Year, or the finale, which is on the front page of the "Daily Observer", and the advertising effect brought by it is simply not too good.

It can be said that this is an effect that no amount of money he spends on advertising himself.

Varina achieved her intended purpose perfectly, killing three birds with one stone.

He managed to eat two fish and get a double bounty;

He successfully completed the first bounty mission, and also made a superficial friendship with the two powerful children;

Most importantly, he also managed to manage the identity of the bounty hunter Lexa, even beyond the level of fame, and laid a good foundation for the plan to digest the potion;

……

Far away seems to be in another city, the district of St. George.

in a two-bedroom house.

Hugh came back from outside with breakfast, took the newspapers from the newspaper box, and when he entered, he put them together on the table and placed them beside Firth who was nestled on the sofa.

"Hugh, you're so nice."

Forth thanked with a grin, picked up the still hot Dixi pie and took a bite, feeling the crispiness and smoothness in his mouth, and couldn't help but let out a satisfied exclamation, "Ah......"

It's a good feeling to stay in the dwelling and wait for someone to bring food and feed it.

She took another bite of the pie and picked up the Daily Observer at the top.

"Uh......h Hugh you look at it...... Woo...... This one. ”

Without looking twice, she hurriedly went to Hugh, who was sitting beside her, and couldn't even care about the food in her mouth before she swallowed it.

……

North End, 39 Berlund Street, Parliamentarian Macht's house.

The rookie "thief", Miss Hazel Macht took today's newspaper from the hand of her valet and read it for a while, and then suddenly froze.

The front page of the Daily Observer, the eye-catching photo, featured a man she knew.

A person she had almost completely forgotten!

The memory flashed back, and she remembered that night, that strange man, and the strange things he had said......

I'm going to memorize his words and verify them slowly...... How can you forget everything?!

At this moment, her heart was full of shock and fear.
