"Really?" Elena snorted coldly, "Since you say you're honest, why are you pretending to be yourself?" ”

"Well, it's a long story, but it's not that long." "A long time ago, that cute little doll with a rip in her arms had to play hide and seek with me, and I said that as long as I hid, no one would ......"

"So you're disguised as a painting and always hidden here?" Elena interrupted it directly.

"Yes, shrewd princess, exactly." The vain mirror whispered.

Elena raised her beautiful eyebrows, and then said indifferently: "That's it, since you say you're honest, then I'll ask you three simple questions, just three!" If you can answer truthfully, then I will believe you and I will complete the deal with you. ”

"What a brilliant idea, shrewd princess!" The vain mirror said excitedly, "Ask, I can break through all falsehood, and I will prove my truth to you." ”

"So, first question."

The corners of Elena's mouth curled, and she hid her hands behind her back.

"How many hands do I have now?"

"Yes, of course...... It's two! The vain mirror smiled, "That's a simple and ridiculous question. ”

Elena was noncommittal, but continued: "The second question, my guest, is there one less now?" ”

"Oh hehe, that's another simple question." The vain mirror looked pleasant, "Of course, Your Highness the Princess, the Earl is having a headache over this matter." ”

"Very well, one last question then."

Elena said, grinning, with a hint of horror and a hint of sickness.

【False Mirror San -0.2】

"It's the most beautiful smile I've ever seen." The vain mirror was stunned for a moment and said, "So, what is your last question?" ”

Elena continued to smile, sickly, horrified: "My final question is: Are you, the mirror of vain, the hundredth guest missing from my bar mig-mitzvah!" ”

At this time, all the eyes on the frame rolled wildly: "This is really a simple and strange question, how can I be the hundredth guest you are missing?" My answer is – no! ”

Elena pouted, "I'm sorry I didn't make it clear, I think I should call you 'Unspeakable Special Inviter'." ”

"Special invitees? No, no, no, I don't know at all what you're talking about, Your Royal Highness the Princess. As I said, I'm not your hundredth guest, nor any of your guests. I'm telling the truth, because I'm the most honest mirror under heaven! The vain mirror tried to justify.

"You're lying again."

"I never lie, Your Highness Princess." The false mirror grinds a row of fangs into a "gurgling" sound.

Elena smiled and held out a finger and said, "The first question, in the absence of one of my guests, the power will appear in the name of 'another me', so I should have four hands now." ”

"Second question." Elena held out a second finger and said, "You said my guest was missing one!" For a mirror whose words are always false, the reason why I can answer so affirmatively is because it has the privilege of choosing to 'accept' and 'give up' its guest status at any time. ”

"So when you replied to me, 'There is indeed a lack of guests,' you must have secretly accepted my invitation to the bar mitzvah, thus making my guests normal. Therefore, the answer you gave me to 'lack of guests' is still a lie. ”

The row of eyeballs in the mirror is moving around, as if each eyeball is condensed with an emotion, making people unable to figure out its state, only feeling chaos.

Elena didn't hurry and stretched out her third finger!

"So based on the above inference, since you have the power to freely change the number of guests, then it is enough to prove that you are a 'special inviter of unspeakable words'! And you answered me 'no', so you're still lying! ”

At this moment, the chaotic array of eyes in the mirror all hit Elena, all showing annoyance.

"Nonsense! Her Royal Highness the Princess!! I am the most honest mirror in the world, but your inferences are all based on the fact that every word I say is a lie! This is simply an insult to me! The mirror said in confusion.

"Honest? Hehe. Elena sneered, "So, how do you explain my first question?" If you can see through all the falsehood, how can you not know that I will have two selves, a total of four hands, in the absence of guests? ”

"Princess, do you think that the vanity of power can be broken by my ordinary mirror?" The vain mirror defended, "Besides, what proof do you have that every word I say is a lie?" If not, then you must apologize to me, Your Royal Highness the Princess! ”

The vain mirror cracked the sharp teeth, and every eyeball was an unquestionable look.

But Elena remained calm, as if she was in control.

Yes, she had long doubted the words of the mirror, and every sentence was a truth hidden in a falsehood, just as Aunt Mary had advised - the third painting in the gallery was always lying.

When she first talks to the mirror in "The Future Is Visible", the mirror gives her a total of five messages.

1, it is playing hide and seek with a little girl holding a teddy bear, so it is disguised as a painting.

2. The plague of the frog is caused by the heart of the witch. Alucardo's bow tie is the heart of the witch.

3. There is a powerful being who is plunging himself into deep fear, and his strength is equal to that of his father.

4. My guest is indeed one less.

5. I have two hands.

Clauses 2 and 3, which Elena has verified for herself in the future visible, prove the falsehood of the words in them—the witch's heart is Alucardo's buckle and not the bow tie; The Dreadlord is a more powerful being than his father, not a king, etc.

The falsehood in these two pieces of information is easy to verify, but it may also be a manifestation of the mirror's lack of ability, and it may not be able to penetrate too deep falsehood, so the information given will be less different from reality.

But when Elena hears Nini say that she has never lost in a game of hide and seek, Elena is sure that there must be a lie in every word of the mirror! Just as Aunt Mary advised!

Nini is her own blood pact, and she can't tell a lie to her master! Then the liar can only be a mirror!

In this way, Elena's judgment is further strengthened - the mirror can definitely say that there is one less guest for herself, and it must have the ability to control the number of guests at any time.

It is the 'unspeakable special inviter'!

So, it's not that it can't break through the vanity of power, but it has long known that in the absence of my guests, I will have another self, a total of four hands!

"You want proof, don't you? Well, here you are. ”

Elena's tone is noble and elegant, but it is as cold as winter, like a queen who controls the world!

Then she shouted at the end of the corridor, "Alucardo! ”
