Chapter 593: Overnight
Leaving the Radiant Alliance, the surroundings were much cleaner. On the way, Motriti still looked around from time to time, or suddenly looked back, lest someone chase her.
Never, but that doesn't completely reassure Motriti.
It seems that her previous thoughts have really come true, the Radiant Alliance is indeed a dangerous and terrifying place, it is simply her nightmare.
She had already begun to wonder what the point of trekking alone to the other side of the ocean just to find a way to hide her breath.
Now, instead of getting the ancient book, she lost her hostility towards Lanaya, and the person she always thought about was never able to get close, and she suddenly became directionless.
Unconsciously, Motriti found that the environment around her was somewhat familiar, as if she had been here, and then saw Richard turn to the anti-rust painted doorrail on the right side of the street, and skillfully unlock it, "Here we are." ”
Motriti looked up and began to wonder how many people lived in the five-story mansion. Walking in a few steps, it seems that the area inside the home is also very large, and this lawn is not too much to graze sheep.
"When did you start living here?"
"Soon after you left Old Slom. ”
Motriti was shocked, this house was bought in one go?! However, thinking that Richard may have a certain amount of assets, plus the inheritance from his father, it is almost the same.
Richard also introduced her to the members of the family, in addition to him, the four strong men who captured Motridy last time, the bodyguards he hired, and two servants, there are a lot of people, but it is a bit of a waste to live in such a large villa.
Mothreti also got another information from it, that Richard had no wife, no children, and no lover. He has a mustache, how can he not look young anymore?!
A few people were resting or cleaning in the living room, and when they saw one or two people coming, the bodyguards looked at each other, and the servants covered their mouths and snickered, and Motriti seemed to realize something.
At this time, Richard also introduced [Blue Snow] to them in a normal way. Neither more nor less, except for the clarification of her identity in the church, and a slight mention of the fact that they had met once in Old Slåm, and nothing else.
The servants may think that this man is ordinary, but the bodyguards do not. None of the four of them could take her! However, when they saw that Richard had brought a girl back, none of them objected, but they still had expectations, after all, Richard was a man who lacked nothing but money.
"You all go upstairs and rest, I'll talk to Lan Xue. Richard commanded.
Several people looked at each other a few more times, and went up one after another, and the whole environment suddenly fell into silence, and only the two of them were left in the huge living room.
"Thank you, but, I don't know how to repay you......" Motriti put down the tea that the servant had just made for her, "You don't know, if you don't make a move, I'll die!"
"Why?" Richard was a little surprised, he didn't expect things to be so serious.
"I ...... To explain, you may need to sort out your thoughts. Motriti calmed down for a moment, sensing if there were anyone nearby who was listening to them, and after noticing if there were, she said, "Do you know what happened to the Radiant and Dire?"
"I know a little bit, I don't know a lot about ......" Richard just nodded, and then he was stunned, could it be that Lan Xue has something to do with the ruins?
"I was also told that if I made a pact with the relics of the opposite camp, I would surely die. ”
Richard immediately understood what was going on.
Sitting beside him was a contractor from Dire.
Thinking back to his time in Old Slom, [Little Shadow] was decisive in killing, and Richard didn't hesitate to believe it.
But now, looking at this girl who seemed to have come out of the world of ice and snow, he couldn't imagine that level anyway.
Dire, in most people's minds, are evil and murderous, their world is shrouded in gloom, so they worship darkness, and the scorching heat of hell makes their blood boil.
Radiant is the opposite.
At this time, Motriti did not give Richard that dark feeling at all, but was holy and bright.
"It's only been a few months since I saw you, how did you become like this, it seems that you did it deliberately, right?"
Motriti nodded, then shook her head again, "I went to a place and let the people there hide my breath, but this dress is not something I deliberately put on......" said Motriti recounted her experience after escaping the clutches of four bodyguards.
When Richard was inexplicably emotional, Motridy suddenly asked, "Do you think I really exist?"
Before Motridy asked, when Richard looked at Motriti, he didn't think anything was strange, but after Motridy said this, he suddenly found a clue.
He had the illusion that there was no one in Motriti's location.
Looking at the woman dressed in white again, he seemed to see a ghost.
I couldn't help but reach out to confirm the other person's presence, and the touch was real: it was as cold as snow that still hadn't adapted to the environment inside the room.
She was still shivering.
Only then did Richard realize that the priest's robe could not block the cold wind at all, frowned slightly, got up and said, "Sit down in front of the fireplace, and I'll go find you a thicker dress." ”
Motriti didn't refuse, she was closer to the fireplace, and it wasn't long before Richard returned, with a coat hanging from her arm, and the cut was designed according to the male physique, which was a bit too big for Motriti, but she could wear it.
Living in such good conditions, Richard has not forgotten that there are people in Qingxue City, and even in various places on the mainland, who can't survive the cold winter.
Mothriety stroked the fur on her collar, she had never worn something so bulky.
Richard found a seat next to him and sat down, "Why would you want to approach them alone? It's too risky...... No, it's a joke with life. ”
"I, I'm voluntary. ”
"What?"
"I wasn't told to do this, I volunteered. Motriti wanted to continue explaining, but instead asked, "What if I tell you the truth and you leak all my affairs to Radiant?"
"If I say it, you'll kill me. Richard had a slight smile, but it didn't look like he was joking.
Motriti looked into Richard's eyes for a long time, as if she was speculating on his thoughts, "I'm going to get their information, and I'm going to get something." ”
That thing naturally refers to Lanaya's ancient book, and Motriti must also keep this secret, which is what Lanaya said. When Richard asked, Motriti didn't answer, and he didn't pursue it any further.
In fact, there is another purpose, Motriti didn't say it, to meet someone, but when she saw it, her heart was still not satisfied. Greed is terrible!
If Mercury found out, he wouldn't know how to laugh at her!
"But it's not worth the risk. Richard shook his head.
If it is true according to Motriti, it is true, but it is not said in some cases.
"So...... Can you tell me what you heard?" asked Motriti in a low voice.
"If I told you, would you still leave here and approach them?" asked Richard without replying.
It wasn't a deliberate failure to answer, and Motriti could tell he was worried about her. But she doesn't think that way herself, she can go anywhere, but she can't stay here, and it will make her feel very uncomfortable under the fence.
But what else could she do? The goal in her mind was either unattainable or destroyed, and there was nowhere else to go.
(So, why don't you help her again??...... )
Motriti lowered her head. "If you won't tell me, forget it. ”
"Not really. You've told me the truth, and you're going to get something in exchange for me. However, I only remember a few keywords. ”
Hearing that Richard was still going to tell her, Motridy looked up again.
"The Land of a Thousand Lakes, the South Coast, the Shimmering Wasteland. ”
"That's all?" Motriti frowned, there were only a few place names, what troops, how many troops, and who led them, all of which had no definite answers, and even if they were to convey them to the Dire, they would not be able to give a proper countermeasure.
"It's definitely more than that, but that's all I remember. ”
Motriti shifted her position slightly, she always felt that she shouldn't stay here, she should leave. And here it is the best choice at the moment.
An inadvertent subtle movement, which seemed to be noticed by Richard, said, "It's not early, just rest here." ”
"It seems...... Don't bother, right?"
"I still have eleven empty bedrooms. ”
-
Could it really be that she was overthinking? Originally, Motriti thought he would have something to think of herself.
However, hiding a Dire Contractor and being in Snowy City should be a lot of pressure for Richard.
"South Coast, don't ......" Sitting on the edge of the bed, staring at the slightly swaying leaves outside the window, Motriti was also thinking about the thoughts of the Radiant people. The South Coast is different from the West Coast, where the navy is far more powerful than the pirates, and it is a well-organized place.
The famous Iron Sail Fleet originated here, and the commander of the fleet, Cuenca, is one of the pillars of the Radiant Alliance.
Motriti didn't know what to do. Obviously already planning to side with [the destined person], do you want to bring this news to Dire?
Come on, they all escaped from the Radiant, and the next time I saw her I didn't know when it would be.
Just as Motriti was about to whisper something to her good sister, another person's voice suddenly sounded in the room.
"The environment is really nice. Is he your master, or is he ......?"
Motriti jerked her head back to see Lanaya sitting with her back to her across the width of a bed, casually surveying her surroundings.
