Vol 3 Chapter 42: Sleepless night (6)

At the Silent Island Hotel, the dance party hosted by the Dardanelles family has come to an end.
Brian Buckler, the patriarch of the family, smiled at each guest with a smile.
"The Dardanelles family thank you for coming and look forward to seeing you again."
"Hope you have fun!"
"farewell!"
Lord of the City of Royo, Derby; Earl Amphlet came over to Buckler and said, "It's almost time, and I should go too, Mr. Dardanelle. Before I go, I have to say, congratulations, Dada The Neil family has an outstanding heir. "
"Thank you very much for your compliments. I'm sorry that Cather is dealing with some questions about alchemy at this moment and cannot come to see you personally."
"It doesn't matter, I fully understand it."
Docome's O'Conman Dodge, and Viscount Radhur of the Bavarian family also said goodbye to Brian Buckler.
"Say hello to your heirs for me, and Dodge is pleased to work with him."
"On behalf of the Bavarian family, I would like to extend my sincerest greetings to the Dardanelles and wish Master Catherine happy."
Everyone said goodbye to Brian Buckler, and tonight, at least at this dance, the Dardanelles have achieved great success.
But the operations carried out in secret have not received any news so far.
When people were almost gone, Hoddin whispered in Buckler's ear: "Our people have sent a message. Xiuyi has taken Liebogel away, and time has passed by almost half an hour. Time."
"Isn't he saying that he is absolutely certain that he can kill any strong person below the sanctuary in a short time in a one-to-one situation?" Brian Buckler frowned.
"Yes, he said so, but the fact is obviously not so smooth. The halo of the strong is not painted with oil paint, but with the blood and corpses of the enemy. Xiu's seems not so smooth."
"I hope he can come back alive, otherwise everything will be illusory and meaningless. In fact, if he does not return within half an hour, maybe I will be ready to run."
"I believe in him."
"Oh?"
Hoodin said lightly: "If a person is going to fight against a country, but even a sixth-level mage cannot handle it, then he is a delusional lunatic. Obviously, Xiuyi is not."
Not far away, a carriage stopped at the entrance of Silent Island Hotel.
When Raschel stepped out of the carriage, Buckler frowned. "Why is he back again?"
"It seems to be coming to see if our Master Heather is there," Hording replied.
"Damn!" Buckler stomped his feet and whispered to Relejeza. "Go to Xiu's room immediately and tell them to be ready. Our Lord Raschel is really a troublemaker."
Stepping out of the carriage, Raschel's face was filled with a warm smile.
He came to Buckler: "I'm sorry, Mr. Dardanelle. It is impolite to leave without saying hello at the ball, but unfortunately I have to do so. For Dada The Neil family is respectful, so I came back immediately after I settled the matter at hand. I hope to express my apologies in actual actions rather than empty words. "
"I've heard something about what happened in the city tonight. It's terrible. Did the demon Hugh Iglell appear in Royo City?"
"Yes."
"Hope you have caught him."
"Actually we didn't, but rest assured, we will catch him soon. No one can escape the hunt of the empire." Raschel grinned. Buckler shrugged indifferently: "I hope so."
"So ..." Raschel protracted his tone, then looked around: "Can I give Master Heather a greeting before leaving? Speaking of them, one of my guards is still with him to play cards. I Hopefully he won't lose me too much. "
"Really? I don't know this well. Barnett, you take Mr. Raschel to see the young master."
"Okay, Patriarch." Hodding said to Raschel with a smile: "Come with me, Mr. Raschel."
Walking past the spacious prom hall and heading towards Xiu's place, Raschel and Hotin chatted casually without a word.
"Mr. Barnett, may I ask, how long have you been with the Dardanelles?" Raschel asked casually.
"Oh, it's been a while."
"Listening to you and other people's evaluations of you, it is clear that you are a poetic book reader. It is difficult to imagine a sea adventure family like the Dardanelles, who can have a knowledgeable person like you Be a housekeeper. "
"It is true that the Dardanelles do not have a tradition of reading, but because of this, they also have extra respect for the scholars. I think this may be the reason why I chose the Dardanelles at the beginning, because here I can get what I don't have anywhere else. You know sometimes money is not the only option you can rely on. "
"That's right. Many times our motivation to do things comes from interest. It's like me. To me, being able to catch cunning criminals who are difficult to catch will give me an unparalleled sense of accomplishment. . "
"So what if you didn't catch him?"
"Then I will continue to work hard. The easy success and the sense of accomplishment is limited, isn't it?"
"Mr. Raschel, you must admit that you are a very intelligent person."
"Compared to your family master, I think I'm far behind, he is a real genius."
"Yes, he is very talented, but he is still young and still lacks experience, and some experience cannot be replaced by talent."
"So he needs the help of a great person like you."
"Do my best."
"I can see that he respects you more than your patriarch."
"Don't say that, Mr. Raschel, the patriarch was hurt because of his brother's death, and he didn't want to deal with it anymore."
"Maybe he should leave the family to Master Dardanelle now."
"Oh, there should always be a transition period. Don't rush to achieve everything."
"That's right," Raschel muttered softly. "Don't rush for everything."
These two people, one is an old fox who is good at calculations. Every sentence has hidden murder, every word has a word, and every word traps. The other is the world's first scammer who is older than fraud. He is also proficient in human tricks and is as smooth as a fish, giving no handle.
Between the detection of lies and the counter-detection, the former has always been more difficult than the latter, so when two opponents of similar strength collide, the liar usually wins the final victory.
Therefore, in this temptation, Raschel did not get any chance. Hodding easily turned all the information Raschel tried to obtain into intangible, which made Raschel very dissatisfied.
Across the hall, they came to the long corridor, and then forward to the living room and bedroom.
"Let's go to the living room first," said Harding.
"I have no opinion," Raschel said.
Just then, a girl suddenly appeared at the entrance of the corridor.
When the girl saw Raschel, her eyes glowed brightly: "Oh, Mr Raschel, you are here. I have been looking for you for a long time!"
The girl came towards Raschel.
It was the girl who invited Raschel to dance, Sandy.
This made Raschel a little awkward.
"Oh Sandy, I didn't expect you to be here, I thought you were gone."
"I didn't see you. You disappeared after a few dances with you. Oh, Mr. Raschel, how can you leave a girl like this and leave? It's too impolite. "
There was a deep smile in Hoddin's eyes.
"I'm sorry, Sandy." Raschel said helplessly.
"I don't care, I want you to compensate me."
"Compensation? How do you compensate?"
"I want you to dance with me a few more games."
"right now?"
"Yes, it is now."
"That won't work, the ball is over."
"Then stay with me for a while, don't you want it? Or Mr. Raschel, do you hate me?" The little girl's voice was full of tenderness and obsession, as if her daughter met her father and had a reluctant feeling .
"Oh, of course not, but I have work to do."
"What else do you have?" The girl asked.
Hoddin immediately said: "Mr. Rascher wants to say goodbye to the young master, but I don't think this is a big deal. You can find a place to play for a while, and I can tell the young master to come out."
Raschel took a long breath, and he often looked at the "innocent" eyes and "innocent" expression of the young girl, and then looked at Huoding's grinning expression, and finally nodded helplessly: "Well, Mr. Huoding , You win, just do what you say. "
The phrase "You won" was like a needle piercing Hodding's heart, his smile remained unchanged, but he politely saluted Raschel: "So be it."
With that said, he walked towards the end of the passage.
Looking at Hoddin's back, Raschel's eyes flashed a cold light, and there was a thick smile at the corner of his mouth.
— Raschel never believed that some pie in this world would fall off.
If it does, then it must be poisonous.
If Sandy's invitation dance was just the performance of the young girl to avoid the disturbance of young men, then the wait and obsession of the young girl at this moment makes him feel a taste of conspiracy.
He had a feeling that even though Cissedane Danil had invited him to his prom, in fact, he did not really want to make too much contact with himself.
In fact, he can't forget the look at the moment before Shuigler started the teleportation.
Full of self-confidence, mystery, and intriguing charm.
He has a special temperament that ordinary juveniles do not possess at all, and he does not have the innocence and innocence that a juvenile should have.
It is as if the soul of an adult is installed on the body of a young man.
That temperament, he had only seen and felt in a teenager, and that was Cissedane Danil.
"Mr. Raschel, you're lost again." Sandy whispered softly in his ear, with a hint of whispering blame.
On the small balcony outside the ballroom, Sandy held Raschel's hand, her eyes full of tenderness.
Raschel said in an apologetic tone: "I'm sorry, Sandy, you see, I'm old and I don't know how to care about the girl around me. I have been alone for decades. , I mean, I'm used to it alone. "
"Maybe you should find a partner for yourself."
"No, people like me are not suitable for a partner." Raschel shook his head.
"why?"
Raschel smiled, stroking Sandy's shoulders gently, holding her in his arms, and whispering: "Because a man like me will always be vigilant against any woman who expresses his kindness and kindness to me , I would even ... hurt them. "
Sandy's face changed dramatically.
Raschel pressed her finger lightly behind Sandy's neck, and she fainted with a stun.
Gently put the little the ground, and tore off her coat to cover her, Raschel murmured, "Sorry, little girl, I hope you have a good dream."
Raising the curtains on the balcony, Raschel noticed that no one was around.
He walked in quickly along the passage.
Quietly in the living room, even the personal figures were invisible, perhaps because the guests had already walked about, and even the servants could not see them.
Raschel noticed that there seemed to be a man lying on the sofa not far away.
He walked over and looked at it, and found that it was Bailey.
His mouth full of wine.
"Damn stupid."
The was drunk. What did he think he was for?
Raschel turned his head and walked over to the bedroom.
Raschel crept close to the bedroom.
Raising his head close to the door, Raschel listened carefully.
There was a pair of men and women talking.
"How's the situation?"
"He wasn't fooled."
"That's terrible, if he finds it troublesome."
"Maybe we should step up. Anyway, we need to give the young master enough time."
"I think about it again."
The sound was full of scorch.
There was a ray of light in Raschel's eyes.
He took out the communication crystal from his arms and said gently, "Chaclay, I am going to mobilize people to surround this place. I think I have found the old nest of Shuigler."
The words stopped, he put away the communication crystal, suddenly opened the door and rushed in, shouting: "I don't think you need to waste any more effort!"
The next moment, he stopped completely.
—Holding and Lilith lie on the ground.
In front of them was a large piece of meat and bones.
They stared at the large closet not far away, a furry shadow faintly seen from below, digging through the gap under the closet.
A pair of eyes were cautiously staring outside, while Huoting was talking to Lilith and shouting to Xu: "Hey, baby, come out, come out."
Raschel's rush made Hording and Lilith raise their heads at the same time, and both looked at him in surprise.
Hodding asked in surprise: "Mr. Raschel? How did you get in?"
Lilith cried angrily: "Who is this person? This is so rude, how can you rush in without saying hello! What did you just say?"
Raschel also paused.
"Ah! I'm sorry, I mean ... I think I went to the wrong room. I wanted to see Master Cissedane Daniel and say goodbye to him. It looks like ... I'm so sorry."
"Are you looking for me?" The bathroom door next to the bedroom suddenly opened, revealing half of Sisedadaniel's body. His upper body was bare, and a towel was wrapped in his hair.
"Master Dardaniel?" Raschel's face showed a pleasant smile: "It turns out you are here, you know I've been looking for you."
"I just took a bath and was planning to take a bath for my sister's dog, but the little guy has always hated bathing, and he doesn't cooperate at all. Every time he takes a bath, he hides, and he likes to stay with us. Where he went to hide, he made himself dirty, as if he would lose money if he didn't wash like this. "
Xiu answered with a smile, holding up the glasses on his face: "Hey, Barnett, haven't you coaxed him out yet? I have all the hot water ready."
Lilith replied indifferently: "He had already come out, but this impolite guy suddenly pushed in the door and scared him again! Sisser, where did you get these savage, no manners? Friend? "Xi Xiu looked at Raschel, her eyes inquiring.
Raschel spread his hand: "Ah, I'm sorry. Really, I'm very sorry for my rudeness. In fact, I just plan to make a joke. Well, I'm leaving now."
As Rasher hurriedly exited the bedroom, Lilith yelled angrily: "Sisser, you'd better remember that the Dardanelles are striving to become high-class aristocrats, and they should pay attention to etiquette. As the heir of the family, you don't Feel free to make this kind of uncultivated person, that will ruin the reputation of the family and ruin all our efforts. As your sister, I will not allow you to associate with such people! "
Damn it! Raschel stomped angrily.
He hurriedly pulled out the communication crystal and said, "Chackle, cancel the operation and wait for me to come down."
Back in the parlour, Raschel grabbed the drunk Bailey and exclaimed angrily, "You idiot, I have lost my face!"
Grab his collar and read to the outside cellphone. M) Go.
The picture in the crystal ball did not end until Raschel got on the carriage.
"He's gone," Xiu said coldly. He put away the crystal ball and tore off the towel around his head, exposing the golden color on his head.
Out of the bathroom, Xiu was wearing only one pair of shorts. The wounds on his thighs had not completely healed, and there were scars left after fierce fighting.
Beneath the large closet, Xu burst out and hurled into Xiuyi's arms.
Its body is half black and white, which is the result of the time before it can be applied.
Hoddin said, "I'll go and see how Sandy is doing, Lilith. Take care of Xiu. He just went through a series of difficult battles and needs someone to take care of it."
"Okay," Lilith answered.
Hoddin left, leaving Lilith and Xiu in the room.
Looking at Xiuyi's injuries, she was silent for a moment, and she finally said, "It's difficult?"
"There are always unexpected places. For a perfect action, 50% depends on planning, and 50%, it depends on randomness and luck. We must be thankful that we finally passed the first level." Xiu answered lightly.
"Will Raschel believe us then?" Lilith started reapplying Xiu's wounds, a top-level ointment that could help Xiu remove all scars.
"No." To the surprise of Lilith, Xiu shook her head. "Raschel still doubts me and doubts us. In this matter, we can't help it."
"Why? I thought it was a very good show."
"Yes, it is really excellent. But Raschel is also a good hunter. Do you know what a good hunter depends on to catch his prey?" Xiu asked Lilith.
Lilith thought for a while and answered, "Various experience."
"Also with keen intuition." Xiu added: "Two abilities necessary for a good hunter. We can fool the hunter's eyes and ears, and invalidate his experience through various means, but we cannot deceive the hunter. Intuition. That's an instinct for danger. It's a natural scent of prey. No matter what we do, we can't cover each other's intuition. So even if I do well, Raschel will still doubt me. "
"That doesn't mean that everything we do now is useless?"
"No, how could it be useless? To know b> 13 看 网 / b> wb> 13 看 网 / b> xs text version An experienced hunter, although with a keen intuition, they are more Depends on experience. They are not people who act by instinct. Intuition will only provide them with a sense of direction, but they will not give them guidelines and plans for doing things. Hunters' intuition about prey is like the relationship between eyes and feet. Intuition is eyes, helping He sees what he wants to see, experience is the foot, helping him to meet what he is looking for. "
Speaking of which, Xiu smiled: "Rasher's eyes are still valid now, still able to capture what he is trying to capture, but his feet are moving in a different direction without obedience. He keeps moving forward , His eyes always stay behind his back, and the result is ... he will hit the wall sooner or later. "
Lilith burst out a laugh and said, "This parable is very interesting, Xiuyi."
"Just like what you like." Xiu Yidan said indifferently: "Anyway, Raschel was fooled. From now on, I have ample reasons not to approach him again, to avoid more possible exposure. Thank you, Lilith, You are doing great. "
This was the first time Lilith received positive praise from Xiu's mouth, which made her feel flattered.
"Stupid and wayward, self-righteous young lady?" Lilith asked.
After thinking about it, Xiu Yi nodded and smiled: "Yes, yes, the wayward young lady ... you really fit this role."
Lilith laughed embarrassedly.
The eyes of the two people looked at each other. At that moment, all the mustards and unhappiness finally disappeared at this moment.
The next moment, Xiu dragged Bogle out from underneath. This formerly beautiful teacher, now wearing a forbidden magic ring, tied hands and feet, and a large piece of rag in his mouth, has become a prisoner of Xiuyi completely.
Looking at Master Bogle with a horrified look, Xiu Yi's lips burst into a proud smile.
"Have a good dream, Master Bogle. This may be your last night."! ~!
