Chapter 40: And I'm Still in the Fireworks
Sunset.
Under the halo, the city of Lyberni is full of orange, like a fairyland with the breath of the world, draped in an orange-red thin shirt.
In the sky overhead, the moon was already shining very brightly. Soon her face will be hidden by the night, and the lights of the city will light up little by little.
Ye's painting has also been completed, and he has painted the city in his heart as much as possible, although it is not a perfect work, but it is already the best he can do.
He put the painting away, just in time to hear footsteps behind him.
Few people come up to this bell tower, and when it comes to this point, who else will come?
"Mr. Ye."
The man's voice rose and fell gently in the breeze, and when Ye looked back, it turned out to be ......
"Mr. Chang'an?"
Chang'an: "Good afternoon~~ I was just chatting with the Countess of Altyn below, and I saw you on top...... Is Mr. Ye painting? ”
"yes."
Ye looked at him, and suddenly had some ideas in his mind, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise.
At the same time, they weren't the only ones who saw the sunset inside the mansion. Braque and the others gathered in his room, staring out the window at the warm orange color.
Braque: "There are two more days, and the four of us have to find out who the traitor is during that time." ”
Slika: "Brack, why are you so sure, we also have traitors in our team......"
Braque's gaze seemed to merge with the tones outside the window, as if he was coveting the silence before the darkness: "Disobedience...... The reenactment of the magic video gives me the feeling that things are not so simple......"
"It's not easy," Pera pointed at Luo Ding: "The traitor is this little deflated three." ”
Luo Ding also pointed at her: "The traitor is a tigress!" ”
Pei: "Die, die, die!! ”
Luo: "Die, die, die!! ”
Slika embarrassed. really convinced these two old six...... When is it, these two guys are still in the mood to quarrel.
Anyway, he didn't expect the two of them to help much, so he simply ignored them and said to Braque, "Anyway, our mission is indeed over. Next, even if there are really traitors among the twenty of us, the final verdict will not be decided until after returning home, is it necessary to find out who it is in the next two days? It's not good if you startle the snake. ”
"I'm afraid it's not that simple" Brack: "Over there in the National Sports Division, Instructor Long has been missing for more than 90 hours."
Thinking about this, the air in the room seemed to be a few degrees colder, and everyone stopped talking.
I hope this has nothing to do with the inner ghost's affairs, otherwise...... Even if they go back to China, I'm afraid they won't have much time left.

on the bell tower.
In the face of Ye's question, Chang'an was patiently answering.
"I've never seen a real Countess Mia Lebony. It is said that she left the city of La Berni a long time ago, long before I came to the Earl's Court. I ...... about her."
Stopping here because it involved some sensitive topics, Chang An looked around and made sure that there was no one else in the bell tower before continuing: "Miss Mia was born to Lord Earl and his first wife, and now the three sons of Raibney City are the crystallization of the love between Lord Earl and his second wife, Agarth Lloyd. I'm sorry I don't know much, but it is rumored that Miss Mia's mother, the first lady of the count, never lived in the city of Raebony...... Miss Mia urinated with her mother in a small town in the south of the country...... Sadly, Miss Mia's mother died when she was very young, and the Count later took Miss Mia back to the city of Leberney...... But a few years later, the young lady secretly left again, when she was still a minor. ”
That's what happened before. Ye Fan remembered the gloomy sadness of the earl yesterday, so those unknown tragedies were related to his daughter?
"After that, the Earl has been tracking Miss Mia's whereabouts, but Miss Mia knows all this...... Mademoiselle seemed to resist all this, and kept trying to get out of the control of the city of Leberney. Later, she really did it, and she completely cut off contact with the city of Lyberney, and she could no longer be found......" Speaking of this, Chang'an paused again: "A long time has passed, and the Earl has not heard from her for many years...... But not long ago, the Count suddenly entrusted me with finding Miss Mia's ...... And I've found it. ”
Ye Fan fell into deep thought again, and when Chang An saw him like this, he asked, "Mr. Ye, although I have already asked the same question before, I still want to ask again, how did you know about Miss Mia?" Can you elaborate on that? ”
So Ye Fan told him everything he had encountered in the main building of the house yesterday, of course, the part that removed the power of Wang Ma.
Even though he had heard a similar answer just now, and now that he heard it again, Chang'an still felt incredible: "It's rare that Mr. Earl actually mentioned the matter of the eldest lady to someone...... I have the impression that I have never seen him mention it to anyone other than that I had been entrusted by him and had heard a little about it. ”
"Yes......"
So what the hell was the old man thinking? Why did you suddenly bring him to the study and show him so many things? Why did your attitude change sharply when we met today? What an elusive old man.
"As for Miss Stishak's business...... Sorry Mr. Ye. Master Menzzek has clearly mentioned that he can't talk about this matter, maybe ...... It's a kind of protection for Miss Stishak...... So I can't tell you. And I actually know so little that I don't have much to tell you...... Sorry. ”
Is that so? Ye Fan thought to himself: But it can also be understood, after all, such an unethical thing as an elven half-breed is indeed likely to become an unspeakable thing in such a prejudiced aristocratic family.
But if you think about it carefully, it's not entirely forbidden to talk about it, don't the two noble ladies I saw today just say that she is happy to say bad things?
Thinking of this, and thinking of her life experience, Ye Fan couldn't help but feel a trace of sympathy for the girl.
The orange color of the city gradually dimmed, and the setting red sun, the red ring on the distant horizon, silently sank under the ring.
Ye was very fortunate to be able to see this scene in the comfortable breeze of the bell tower.
Night fell.
Over the city of Leberney, a winding line rises into the sky, and with a "bang", bright, romantic fireworks burst into the sky.
Another firework was thrown into the sky, and with the sound of explosion, the fireworks opened in the sky with a special font:
God bless Leberney.
And the man to whom these words were to be conveyed, the head of the Theo Leburny family, was sitting in the darkness of the study, staring silently at the picture frame in front of him.
What a lonely scene, but at this moment no one witnessed his bleakness, and no one could enter his spiritual world through those slightly open eyes.
The people pictured here are Mia Leburney and her mother, Vienna Lori.
I can't remember if this is the tens of thousands, or the hundreds of thousands, doing what I'm doing now. I can't remember how many days and nights, he could only experience unforgettable joy again and again in the dark, like a horse, and then fell into unforgettable melancholy.
Perhaps, it's time.
It's time, Mia......
He looked at the happy face in the frame, and thought silently in his heart.
In addition to Ye Fan and Chang'an, there were other people in the mansion who saw the fireworks at the first time.
Pera was leaning against the window with her cheeks crossed, the fireworks reflected in her eyes unpredictable. She thought of her younger siblings back home. Every time the fireworks go off, she seems to see them playing under the trees in the courtyard when they were children. She has no weakness in this life, and because she is afraid of herself, there is nothing to be afraid of. But if you have to pick out an existence that makes her heart beat faster, then her younger siblings who can keep reminiscing about the happy past are the only option.
It's so pretty.
If only the peeas could see it. She thought to herself.
The witch stood in the courtyard with her hands folded, her eyes glowing incessantly as she looked at the sky.
Lazor was in the aisle, looking thoughtfully at the light from the fireworks...... It's myself again, looking at the sky.
And in a window reflecting the bright fireworks, two purple eyes suddenly appeared, shivering with coldness.
The cold air was terrifying, and after that grinning smile appeared, it reached the extreme.
Behind the owner of this face, the Erlenmeyer flask on the table, containing leaflets and unknown substances, glowed eerily in the darkness.
The sword of the hanging top had been quietly erected above their heads, hanging high above everyone, above the entire city of Leiberni, and all they could see was the fireworks blooming in the sky.
