"Every time I see her sit down, I lie down on the sofa with my pillow on Milaya's lap. Apart from eating, I wish I could close my eyes twenty-four hours a day with enjoyment. Even when I walk, I have to carry Milaya on my back. I feel like there is a cat scratching my heart.”
Even though she had tried very hard, she was still no match for this demon. Mi Gaiya was captured by her without paying attention, which she couldn't understand.
"..."
Lanci turned his head and looked at Thalia.
Your sister is really special. Does Hyperion know she is like this?
Thalia shook her head slightly.
Hyperion didn't know.
Thalia dared not break Hyperion's fantasy of her mother.
If Epatia is really found, it is estimated that Epatia will ask Hyperion to take care of her, and it will be difficult to tell who is the daughter.
To a certain extent, it is a good thing that Ifatia left Hyperion when she was a child. Otherwise, Hyperion might have learned to take care of her mother when she was a few years old. Thalia could not bear to let her honest mother Hyperion worked as a child laborer.
Lan Qi fell into deep thought.
Although Miss Epatia is also a demon, she may appear to be very cold on the surface at times, but without the charm that has accumulated over eight hundred years, Hyperion may not necessarily like her.
In an instant, Lan Qi felt a chill running down his spine.
Just like this fine wine, the longer it ages, the more charming it becomes, and its value will increase immeasurably. It can only be said that Hyperion has quality.
He thought on second thoughts.
At this point, the chill gradually melted and dissipated.
"I don't think the problem lies with Miss Rosalinda. Sometimes it's just a matter of fate."
Lan Qi comforted the lady opposite the sofa.
"Although, if it's just Mi Gaiya who rejects me, I can still accept it, but why can that female demon get his favor? How can I not be better than her? I really don't want to give up on me!"
Countess Rosalinda picked up the nearly empty wine glass and poured it into her mouth. The more she spoke, the more excited she became.
"Do you know what's the most outrageous thing? She had to feed Milaya when she was eating. Wow, I really vomited. Seeing the two of them there, you and I are willing to do it. I still get goosebumps when I think about it now. Risk.”
Countess Rosalinda continued to cry to the two.
Lanci and Talia's expressions froze.
"Can you imagine that kind of scene? Do they really have the shame of adults?"
"..."
Lanci and Talia were speechless, and each subconsciously wanted to move away from the other.
The living room was quiet for a moment.
"Why don't you talk anymore?"
The countess wiped away her tears, her eyes gradually focused and she asked.
"Let's talk business."
Lanci suggested with great embarrassment.
"Ahem, by the way, the topic accidentally got sidetracked. I'd better talk to you about Milaya and his wife next time."
Countess Rosalinda cleared her throat, the flush on her face faded, and she regained her dignity.
No matter what, she still wanted to pick up the wine glass and drink a little more, but she was convinced that there were only a few drops in the glass, so she stood up gently, walked to the wine cabinet nearby, selected a bottle of expensive red wine, and then bent down .
"Do you drink?"
She took out two exquisite goblets from the bottom of the wine cabinet and turned around to ask.
"I can."
Thalia nodded.
She can hardly get drunk from low-alcohol wine. Sometimes a glass of wine with dinner is particularly good and helps her sleep well.
"I don't drink alcohol, can you give me a glass of sparkling water?"
Lan Qi politely refused with a smile.
"Okay, it's rare for me to have a friend to chat with. Let's chat and drink together."
She picked up the bottle and asked the waiter to bring Lan Qi a drink, then walked back to the sofa and sat down.
As the red wine was slowly poured into the glass, a deep aroma of wine filled the air, adding a touch of crystal clear red to the late night.
"I didn't expect that Lan Qi, you don't drink either. This is the same as Mr. Bolao. He never touches alcohol in order to stay sober in the testing site. On the contrary, Milaya often tries various kinds of alcohol. He has a very high Poison-resistant physique.”
Rosalinda handed the wine glass to Thalia, and then said to Ranchi.
"I don't want to be arrested in Huadu for being drunk."
Lan Qi smiled and shook his head.
"...It's really hard to imagine how drunk you are."
Countess Rosalinda said in surprise.
In her opinion, this junior brother is a very stable type in both his behavior and conversation.
"For people who are weak drinkers, the biggest charm of wine is that even though you know that touching it will make you drunk, sometimes you still can't help but touch it. However, can you resist?"
She raised her eyebrows curiously.
Not only wine, but also some people. Just like wine, it is difficult to say whether it is a poison or an antidote.
"Obviously, I can."
Lan Qi replied confidently.
Thalia took a silent sip of her wine.
She kind of realized now that Lan Qi really didn't seem to drink.
I heard from Lan Qi's father and housekeeper that Lan Qi was addicted to wine for a while, and he never touched wine again after meeting her, as if he had forgotten about wine.
"Although it's embarrassing, I'll make you laugh as soon as you come to Huadu."
Ranchi then remembered the plane crash and added to Countess Rosalinda.
"I heard that you met Mr. Tiffany's executioner. There is nothing you can do. The emergency safety regulations were just implemented in Huadu today. Just hope that you are safe."
Rosalinda sighed with relief and answered him.
The number of cases of cursed demons going crazy has surged exponentially in recent times. Finally, the news could no longer be suppressed. The Kingdom of Posen has also decided to gradually disclose information and increase the level of security control in Huadu Parrieu, causing panic at the smallest possible moment. Under such circumstances, we try our best to investigate the origin of the mystery.
Although she was not in the Senate, she quickly learned what happened to the Floating Castle airship tonight.
What really surprises Rosalinda is not that Ranch and Tata have been in an accident.
But that they were able to escape unscathed from Lord Tiffany's executioner.
Chapter 669 Lan Qi feels so happy
Late at night like this, a layer of light gray mist occasionally hides the white light of the moonlight, making the living room flicker.
The three of them sat at opposite ends of the sofa next to the glass wall.
"Do you know Lord Tiffany's executioner, Mr. Nigel?"
Ranch asked Countess Rosalinda.
He still had a good impression of the chief who spared him and Tata.
If the executioner really had a harsh character, he wouldn't have hesitated so much after seeing Lissancy's suspected recovery.
After Lanci accepted the commission, he would naturally help Talia investigate the reason why the demon curse went crazy. Nigel, the executioner, is likely to be a good intelligence provider.
"Nigel from Mr. Tiffany, he is a demon orphan with outstanding fighting talent. He was adopted by a powerful demon in the Posen Demon Realm when he was a child. He grew up with the two daughters of that demon. That is A pair of sisters, but the younger sister was unfortunately cursed. Finally, that night, Nigel cut off the younger sister's head in front of her sister..."
Rosalinda shook her head and sighed, and said somewhat unbearably,
"Since then, he has never met his mentor and childhood sweetheart. He has taken refuge with Duke Tiffany and has become an executioner of the Senate, specializing in killing demons who violate laws and go mad."
"Has this curse existed for a long time?"
Lan Qi frowned slightly and asked.
He originally thought that it happened frequently a hundred years ago and has been calm since then, but according to Rosalinda, there may have been signs in recent years, and only recently it has started to explode again.
"It stands to reason that it has never disappeared, but in the intervening decades it has reduced to a negligible frequency, even lower than the fatality rate of ordinary diseases, so it no longer becomes a problem. At the same time, for Poisson The peace and stability between humans and demons, this legend that could easily scare both sides, was deliberately hidden until from an unknown moment, this frequency began to become wrong, as if someone had obtained the taboo of the great wizard Parroni. The curse brought back his resentment."
Countess Rosalinda explained.
"How did Nigel report the accident to the Senate?"
Thalia put down the empty wine glass and asked Rosalinda next to Lanci.
She didn't want to become the person who attracted the attention of Posen Kingdom as soon as she and Lanqi came to Huadu.
"I personally feel that... Nigel did not report the situation in detail, let alone talk to the point. He only told part of what he saw, heard and speculated."
Rosalinda was also confused;
"So according to the information I got from the Senate, Marquis de Lisese, Nigel probably admitted that he had misjudged the appearance of suspected mad demons on the airship. In fact, it is not necessarily as big as before. The Sorcerer Parroni's Grudge's Curse."
Lanqi and Tata may know more about what is really going on on the Floating Castle airship than she does.
"That's it."
Lan Qi said to himself.
Thalia noticed that Lanci was deep in thought.
"what happened?"
She asked Lan Qi in her mind.
"I think Nigel is not necessarily protecting me purely out of his personal attitude, but he may also be hesitant about the Senate and the higher-ups in the demon world, so he did not directly take us back and report that we can break the curse. fact."
Lan Qi replied.
Even Countess Rosalinda didn't know that the two of them could solve the curse in a different way.
