Heritage in the Castle (6)
On such an important day, it is impossible for Lord Klouster to be prevaricated by illness, and the old society has always regarded authority as extremely important, even if he favors his 'youngest son' again, he will not pass his status and allow him to declare his successor, unless he ......
"Mrs. Kloster already knew that there was no property treaty in the brown and red box, and for some purpose not wanting to be punished, she asked Lord Kloster's favorite son to open it, so that she could be safest without touching the box from beginning to end."
Si Cheng listened to Xia Lingge's analysis and fell into deep thought: "There is also this possibility, where will the real property treaty be?" β
Xia Lingge shook his head: "I'm afraid that except for Prince Kloster, no one knows now." Let's wait and see if they come up with any clues...... Hiss. β
She pulled the teapot with her hand to the wound and gasped unconsciously.
Si Cheng hurriedly walked over and took the teapot for her and replaced it with a cup of hot tea: "I haven't had time to ask Senior Sister, how did the injury on your body come from?" β
"A monster."
Xia Lingge replied slowly, his eyes fluttering as if he was back in the orphanage again, the hideous monster had a fierce face, tearing apart the body of a capable person, and even if the little man knew that he would die, he was willing to stand in front of others.
Just, why......
Xia Lingge glanced at Si Cheng and suddenly asked, "Will you be willing to die for others?" β
Si Cheng was stunned: "What? β
"Won't you die for whom?" Xia Lingge repeated it again.
Si Cheng held the cold flower tea, "Why did Senior Sister suddenly ask about this?" β
"It's just weird."
Xia Lingge replied: "Everyone is afraid of death and is unwilling to die, even if I don't have a particularly clear concept of life and death, I don't want to die so inexplicably." But why do some people be willing to die for others? Doesn't he/she feel wronged? β
"No, it won't. If it is willing...... "Si Cheng looks at her" is like ...... He Zhinian and Senior He, he was willing to risk his life for the sake of his senior sister. β
Xia Lingge rubbed his head: "He's just a fool." β
"Actually, I do."
Si Cheng retracted his gaze and looked at the hazy reflection of the tea face: "If there is really such a day......
'Boomββ! β
The loud thunder outside the window drowned out Si Cheng's small voice, and the dense rain hit the glass window with a rushing sound.
"What did you just say?"
Xia Lingge looked at him and wondered.
"No, nothing ......"
Si Cheng hid the look in his eyes, stood up and walked to the glass window, it was dark outside the window, and there was no light in sight.
He muttered, "This rain is just right. β
"That's why the moon is dark and the wind is high, and the day is murderous and arson." Walking slowly down the marble staircase, Shen Yu took off his cap and leaned against the railing with great interest, half of his body leaning out of the railing, his posture languid like a graceful and luxurious Persian cat.
"He just said he was willing to die for you." He pointed at Si Cheng and turned to Xia Lingge, "Although these words are disgusting, but the truth." β
Xia Lingge glanced at him: "Why did you come down?" Got it? β
"Nope."
Shen Yu jumped over the railing to the ground, walked behind the sofa in a few steps and leaned on her to look at her: "It's boring, I haven't found anything after looking for a long time, it's still fun to play with you." β
Si Cheng pulled him and pushed him aside: "She is injured, so she doesn't have time to play those dangerous games with you." β
Shen Yu tidied up his clothes and was not annoyed: "That's not necessarily, maybe your senior sister is very willing to 'live and die' with me~"
Si Cheng stared gloomily at Shen Yu's provocation, and just as he was about to say something, there was a sound of footsteps above the staircase, Luo Yan, Liu Shiyi and Bai Weiwei walked down separately, and when they saw Xia Lingge, they Luo Yan asked, "Do you have any clues?" β
Xia Lingge shook his head: "No." β
"Neither do we." Luo Yan frowned, "Then where will this property treaty be?" What else did we not find? Unfortunately, it's raining now, and we can't look outside. β
Shen Yu chuckled: "It's also possible that there are traitors among us who hide the property treaty." β
This time, Luo Yan was not in a hurry to refute him.
"Miss, young master, it's not good!"
The butler hurriedly walked out of the corner corridor: "A servant found that the thunder and lightning just now had cut the drawbridge around the castle, and people couldn't get out, but the food in the castle was only enough for five days, what should I do?!" β
Five days,
Is this the time limit set by the game?
Xia Lingge remembered the hunger in the last copy, the kind of hunger that was close to the back was not like experiencing it a second time, she rubbed her temples that were a little painful, and said to Luo: "Don't look for it anymore, this time we will find the upper layer and you will find the lower layer, maybe you can find something different." β
"That's all it can be."
Luo Yan faced the housekeeper: "Don't panic, let everyone else do their duty for five days...... Enough is enough. β
The housekeeper responded.
Xia Lingge and Si Cheng walked upstairs, and they had been in a hurry to find many famous paintings of the second floor hanging from the walls of the second floorβVan Gogh's starry sky, Leonardo da Vinci's Last Supper, Edvard Munch's cry, and Picasso's Guernica...... Wait a minute.
It seems that Lord Klouster is very fond of collecting paintings.
"Senior sister, where are we going?" Si Cheng helped her and asked as he walked.
Xia Lingge retracted his gaze: "Study." β
"I've looked for the study, but there's nothing." Shen Yu, who was following behind, interjected without seeing it.
Si Cheng glanced back at him and frowned unconsciously: "What are you doing with you?" β
Shen Yu shrugged: "I'm idle, I'm too lazy to be in the same stream with those people downstairs." β
"Actually, there's no need to be in the same boat as us." Xia Lingge replied to him lightly.
Shen Yu tilted his head: "Then you don't need to take care of it." β
Soon, the study arrived.
Xia Lingge stretched out his hand and pressed it on the doorknob, and instead of pressing it downward, he leaned close to the door panel and listened carefully to the movement inside.
She opened the door, and a small cry was heard. Mrs. Klouster sat at the wooden table, holding the picture frame in her left hand and wiping her tears with a handkerchief in her right hand.
Xia Lingge turned her head sideways, and Shen Yu shook her head: "You didn't look at me, she wasn't there when she came just now." β
"Mother."
Xia Lingge and they walked in slowly.
"You're here......"
Mrs. Klouster raised her head and showed her red eyes, seeing that they immediately wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, she got up and stretched out her hand to arrange the books and various small boxes on the table, "These are the prince's favorite things in his life, he is not here now, I will clean them up and keep them all." β
Xia Lingge glanced at the things on the table: "Mother, let's help you." β
