Chapter 43 Utilization (Asking for a Commuter Pass)
Viscount Stafford ...... Chief of the royal court's guard...... Judging from this position, there is indeed a shadow of a certain faction of the royal family behind the Beckland smog incident, and as for who it is, it remains to be investigated...... Crane couldn't pull out his hand to verify Triss's answer for the time being, so he could only make Seigor hey and say:
"I can't believe how easily you told me the clue. ”
Triss said with a bit of sneer and self-deprecation:
"Because it's a good thing for me, and I can see that you and the forces you represent are very interested in the real plans of the royal family against those guys behind the scenes, and if you can bring you into conflict with them by providing some effective clues, and let the real conspirators surface, I am more than happy to do so, and it will help me to get revenge, and it will be of great help. ”
According to this logic, does the reverse mean that I can also use you to drive you to investigate this matter, and find out the real black hand hiding behind the scenes, so that my own forces can always hide in a safe and hidden place until they have effective information...... Hey, isn't Triss's remark just now to induce me to cooperate with her to a limited extent, and to volunteer to become a "deminer" to uncover the truth...... She showed the value of being used...... She was afraid that I would eventually decide to kill her...... Klein roughly understood what Triss really wanted to express, and manipulated the "resentful spirit" to say:
"It makes sense, and I should do the same.
"I don't think you need to threaten or tempt you, you yourself will try to contact Viscount Stafford once your injuries have healed. ”
Triss hooked the corners of her mouth and said:
"I just hope he doesn't like men. ”
It's not impossible to solve it, if you already have Sequence 5, you can consider switching to Sequence 4 "Predator Knight" of the "Hunter" path...... Also, have you forgotten your old self, and why are you becoming more and more accustomed to using the abilities of the "Witch of Pleasure" to deal with men...... Klein scolded twice, which made Seigor laugh:
"It's not a problem, you can show him your previous photos. ”
Triss was stunned for a moment, her expression slightly distorted, and there was a feeling that the shame buried deep in her heart had been dug up alive and exposed to the sun.
Her delicate eyes were then clouded with a layer of anger from shame, and her face, pale from injury, instantly turned red.
Triss quickly restrained her emotions, sighed, and said in a low voice:
"It is worthy of being a 'blood general', and he really has a deep enough understanding of the witch's path. ”
She wasn't sure before, I thought that the Witch Sect and the Rose School had cooperated, so she believed that the "Blood General" knew the secret of the "Assassin" path, so she made that joke...... Either way, it's not good to ridicule someone else's gender...... Well, this is quite in line with the character of "blood generals...... One of the rules of the Master of Puppets is "Remember, every puppet has its own setting"?The reason why Triss mentioned the previous photos just now seems to be simply to vent the torture and get rid of the joy and excitement of an enemy, and not pay special attention to the details in the description...... Klein nodded thoughtfully, manipulating Señol and saying:
"At my level, I always learn a lot of secrets. ”
Instead of continuing the topic, he said:
"How do I contact you?
"I may be able to help you in your investigation of Viscount Steford. ”
Triss reached to her ear and grabbed a handful of jet-black smooth hair, then cut off a lock of blue ice chips.
She immediately spread out the palm holding the black hair, and let the black and silent flames erupt, burning the strands of hair to ashes.
Instead of being blown up by the cold wind in the sewers, the ashes shrank inward and coalesced into a pasty-like black mass.
"Apply them evenly to the mirror, and I know you're looking for me, and I'll use that mirror to communicate with you later. With a flick of her wrist, Triss tossed the black mass at Sennior, the "Blood Admiral," "That's about five uses, that's enough." ”
Since Señor was only a secret puppet, Klein didn't worry at all about accidentally letting him catch the black gooey thing, take a few looks, and stuff it into his coat pocket.
Triss was silent for a few seconds, then bit her lip and said:
"How do I contact you if I need some help?"
That's a problem...... Klein really wanted the other party to summon the messenger Miss Renette Tinicol directly, anyway, after that, Triss only needs to inquire about the current situation of the "Blood General", and she will know that this resentful spirit is hiding Gelman Sparrow, which is something that cannot be hidden.
After thinking about it for a few seconds, he decided to be cautious, thinking that it wasn't too late to change the contact information when Triss did find out.
After all, this is not a person to be trusted...... Her revenge for Prince Edsak may indeed have true intentions, but most of them also contain other purposes, such as avenging herself...... Klein asked Señor to look around and said:
"This sewer holds a lot of secrets, I come here often, you can leave the help you need here in writing.
"If it's urgent and you don't have time to do it, you can contact the person just now and ask him to come here and leave a message. ”
Triss nodded slowly:
"Good. ”
Seeing that the communication was almost over, Crane prepared to let the secret puppet Seigor leave.
At this moment, his "gaze" swept over Triss's hands and found that the sapphire ring comparable to a "0" level seal was missing!
I noticed it just now, and thought she had changed her hand and put it on her finger, but it really didn't turn out...... In this way, she was able to escape from Prince Edsak's Red Rose Manor and get rid of the control of Ince Zangwill and "0-08", and she paid a lot of price! The mark left by the "Original Witch" on her body was also gone? Klein thought for a moment, and made the "Blood General" Seigor laugh and said:
"One more thing.
"Which god did you sell your soul to?"
Triss took a deep look at the middle-aged man in front of her and said:
"The First Witch. ”
...... Didn't you want to get out of that weird state in the first place? Didn't you want to be less and less like yourself? How did you go back? Don't you know that they changed your name to Trisquich because they wanted to make you the "Original Witch" container? No, she really didn't know, she didn't even understand the meaning of the title Cheek...... tried his best to escape from fate, but he further integrated into fate...... At this moment, Klein was inexplicably afraid of fate and divine inspiration.
He reluctantly made Señol laugh:
"It's hard to convince me that you answer so easily. ”
Triss's eyes were misty a little, and she laughed at herself:
"Because it's a problem for me, not a secret.
"The more people know, the more hope there will be to solve the problem, even if this hope is very slim, but it is better than nothing. ”
When solving the problem, there is a high probability that it will also solve you...... Klein didn't say much, thought for a moment and said:
"When you're close to Viscount Stafford and the guys behind the scenes, be mindful of how often you have coincidences. ”
The deeper the investigation into the Beckland smog incident, the more likely it is that Ince Zangwill and "0-08" will notice!
"Coincidence......" Triss paused for a moment and repeated the word.
At this moment, she remembered the coincidences that had befallen her time at the Red Rose Manor.
In the midst of her thoughts, she suddenly looked up and looked to the other side, only to find that the "blood general" Señol, who wore a dark infrared jacket and an old three-cornered hat, had long since disappeared.
............
The next morning, Klein got up on time and, with the help of his valet Richardson, put on his coat.
As soon as he arrived at the restaurant, he saw Walter standing in the doorway, waiting respectfully.
"Sir, your main arrangement today is to attend the afternoon tea at Congressman Macht's house. Walter dutifully reminded his employer.
He was old-fashioned, serious, meticulous, and indistinguishable from his usual appearance, and he couldn't tell that he had been in the sewers in the middle of the night last night.
Klein nodded with a smile and said as if nothing had happened:
"I haven't forgotten. ”
He then entered the dining room and enjoyed the rather delicate but repetitive food.
The breakfast is not varied enough...... Klein finished eating, put down the knife and fork, sighed and said:
"I'm a little nostalgic for my hometown, so let's ask the chef to prepare a Dixi pie tomorrow. ”
"Yes, sir, I should have thought of that earlier. The housekeeper Tania replied apologetically.
Crane waved his hand to signal that she didn't care, and went for a walk in the garden.
After doing all this, he went back to the third floor to read the rest of the newspaper until the etiquette teacher Vahana arrived.
Still well-dressed and elegant, Vahanna smiled and said to Daun Dantès:
"I heard that you are going to Lady Liana's for afternoon tea today, so the focus of this class is afternoon tea etiquette......
Klein kept smiling, listened intently, and asked questions from time to time.
Two quarters of an hour later, Walter, the butler, knocked at the door and came in:
"Sir, the servant of Councillor Macht's family has just come and said that this afternoon tea has been cancelled because Madame Leana's daughter, Miss Hazel, is ill, and she is sorry and hopes to invite you again next week. ”
Is Hazel sick? Because of last night's fright? If it were an ordinary person, it would not be impossible, but an extraordinary person, an extraordinary person who has improved his physical fitness, the probability is very small......
Moreover, Hazel had obviously not seen the uncontrolled changes brought about by the potion, and his mental state was quite healthy, so that he behaved superiorly, without a sense of fear, and even if he was frightened, he would not suffer from psychological illness...... Disease...... Sequence 5 of the Witch Path can cause people around her to get sick......
Last night, Triss noticed that a stranger had entered the sewers and quietly spread the disease, and Señor in the "Spirit" state would not be infected, so I didn't notice it...... This was not a big problem, and Hazel did not stay in the sick environment for long, only because she was frightened, so she did not recover quickly...... It seems that Triss has really promoted to Sequence 5...... Klein bowed his head lightly and said:
"Greetings to Miss Hazel for me. ”
