After lunch, Valeera said goodbye to Hugh and Forth and drove back to her residence on the West End.

She's been busy all day.

In the afternoon there was an invitation to an afternoon tea, and in the evening there was a ball for Viscount Glelint, followed by a party of the extraordinaires of "Mr. A......

Finally, late at night, she had to go to the "Brave Bar" and meet with Marić-

Because it's still a full moon night.

In such an era, a high-class lady who does not do business, life is basically so busy and boring, highlighting a waste of time.

In the evening, a ball at Viscount Gríint's house.

At the right time, Audrey and Valeera were given a hint to go up to the second floor and enter a specific guest bedroom with a secret passageway.

Audrey quickly changed her outfit, and instead of going downstairs directly down the dark passage, she first came to the guest bedroom next door and entered the room through the secret door, startling Lia, who was helping Valeera change her clothes.

"I went out with Audrey and I'll be back soon."

Valera finally put on the hooded robe that Gleilint had prepared in advance, and smiled at Lia's command, "Let's go to a secret meeting of the occult, you just keep the door open and pretend that I stay in the room to rest." ”

She deliberately took this opportunity to expose a little "secret" in front of Leah.

"Let's go."

Valera puts on her hood and leaves with Audrey.

In the room, Leah slowly sat down in her chair and began to ramble on her thoughts.

She thought back to the traces of her past life, combined with Valeera's explanation tonight, and finally understood that her young lady was probably interested in the rumored magical supernatural abilities.

No wonder she asked that question and wanted to move to sea.

Leah has also heard a lot of rumors about the sea, what "four kings and seven generals", what "sea treasures", some have heard some of them, and one of the common points of those stories is that it is related to magical supernatural abilities.

Then she began to think about the answer to that question.

Answer: It's nothing more than two, go or don't go. In order to find out, she began to imagine what her life would be like after making these two choices.

Soon Leah discovers that if she chooses to go, her future life is completely unknown, and she can't imagine it; If you don't go, life is almost fixed, and there are many people's experiences to refer to.

So, which option is better?

After thinking about it for a while, Leah found that her train of thought was back to square one, and she was completely unable to make judgments, just like she had done several times before.

But unlike before, this time she had a chunk long enough to think fully.

After a while, she transformed this question, which she couldn't find an answer, into a question that was approximately equivalent to her—

Is Miss worth believing?

Worth!

Although she had only been in contact with Miss for a few months, Leah could easily conclude that Miss was probably the best type of employer compared to her previous employers and what she had heard.

Even...... She feels more like a friend than an employer!

Every time Leah recalls the conversation she had had in the study the other morning, she could sense the egalitarian and intimate attitude of the young lady at that time.

Thinking of this, her eyes became firm, and she made a decision in her heart.

……

From leaving to returning, it was almost an hour.

The whole process of attending the gathering of "Mr. A" Extraordinary is also roughly the same as described in the original book, except that Audrey completes a deal and obtains three pages of Russell's diary.

If there is a difference, it is that Valilla also received a small note from "Mr. A" asking if she was interested in other avenues.

After returning from the Extraordinary's gathering, Valeera returned to her previous guest bedroom and found Lia sitting in a chair in a daze.

She greeted easily, "Don't worry, I'm not back, am I?" ”

"Ah, miss."

Leah reflexively stood up, her hands folded on her lower abdomen.

After the subconscious action, she hurriedly greeted and helped Valilla change her outfit again, "I'll help you." ”

As she helped Valilla put on her intricate dress again, she asked softly:

"Miss, what do you think I should choose?"

"Huh?" Valilla didn't understand what Leah was asking.

"I'm talking about your question the other day," Lia explained, moving her hands, "I'm sure Mademoiselle, Mademoiselle will know which option is better for me." ”

Valera looked at the busy valet and frowned and asked:

"You mean, you want me to make decisions for you?"

"Uh-huh." Leah nodded.

"That's not going to work," Valeera said, reaching out to get dressed, shaking her head, "I can't decide my life for you. ”

"But I can tell you a little more knowledge and information so that you can make your own choices."

Honestly, Valeera was touched to see Leah trust her so much, but she still restrained her thoughts and put the decision back in the hands of the other party.

After changing her clothes, she came out of the bedroom and happened to see Audrey next door, who had just left the house.

The two looked at each other and smiled, and went downstairs to join the guests and return to the ball.

The dance lasted until almost 10 o'clock in the evening.

In the more than ten minutes of the return trip, Valilla referred to Dunn's introduction to Crane in the original book, and slightly revealed some news about the extraordinary to Leah.

The pros and cons of her being extraordinary, laid out for Leah to consider.

……

Iron Gate Street, "The Brave Bar".

As it approached midnight, Marić couldn't help but glance at the closed door of the chess and card room.

Valera hasn't come yet.

That means he'll have to spend the whole day recovering after tonight.

Before, there was no choice, there was no way, but now, of course, he would prefer Valera to come and help.

As the clock approached midnight, Marić had almost given up on the idea that Valilla would arrive.

He had also heard rumors of the "Phantom Black Queen" recently, and thought it might be Valeera playing it...... If he guessed correctly, Valeera would not have been able to come over.

The "Golden Rose" is located in the bridge area, not too far from Tiemen Street.

The momentum of the arrest was not small, and it reached the bar the next day.

Although the rumors are only the first half, and there are many mistakes, omissions and personal misinterpretations, Marić and Sharon are both veterans and extraordinary, and it is okay to analyze the general situation.

Obviously, the official extraordinary person made a lot of effort, but still failed to catch the "Phantom Black Queen".

Therefore, they unanimously agreed that the strength of the "Phantom Black Queen" was very strong.

Winter, winter, winter.

After 11:50, there was a knock on the door of the chess and card room.

Under Marić's surprised gaze, Valilla pushed the door open and entered, saying with a smile on her face:

"Sorry, there were a lot of things going on today, and I was almost late."
