The lights were still on on the stairs, but the lights in Room 1 on the second floor were extinguished. When Shade entered, he turned on the lights. The flowers were still filled with flowers in his living room, and the candles on the dining table had been extinguished.
Lesia was not seen, but Dorothy was sitting on the sofa waiting for Shade. Her expression returned to normal, and she did not look like she was crying just now.
"what happened?"
Shade asked. Dorothy shook her head, but did not let Shade sit down:
"Lecia and I just talked about a lot of things, including you and Luvia."
"ah?"
Shade was taken aback, and his good mood immediately fell to the bottom, but Dorothy would know about this sooner or later, and it was not inappropriate for Lesia to tell her:
"Yes, we."
"You don't have to explain to me. I always thought that if Luvia lived her life with the attitude of carrying a huge responsibility, she would definitely become an old girl who could never get married. I didn't expect that she would do it so quickly."
Dorothy must have drank a lot of the fruit wine prepared by Shade, and her face was unusually flushed:
"Xia De, the red butterfly that just led the way was your illusion?"
"Yes."
"You hateful, dirty, handsome butterfly that attracts flowers"
She squeezed out a sentence of unknown meaning through her teeth, but there was no disgust for Shade in her eyes.
The blonde girl pressed her hands on the sofa:
"If you wanted to stay and have dinner with us just now, we wouldn't let you leave. Why did you go downstairs alone?"
"How about that? This is your time, and I won't disturb this kind of thing."
Shade thought for a while:
"Maybe our relationship is very close, but you and Lesia, you and me, these are two different kinds of intimacy."
Shade made the distinction very clearly:
"Maybe our relationship is very good, but that doesn't mean that your relationship with me is everything in life. There are other important people and important stories in life, such as you and Lesia. The one just now belonged to you.
time, just like what you told me today - girls need secrets."
The blonde writer had a bright smile on her face. She was wearing light makeup, a long dress, and her face was flushed due to being slightly drunk. She was really beautiful at the moment:
"Xia De, sometimes I really feel that you are very good."
The voice was so low that it was almost drowned out by the sound of rain outside the window.
"Of course I'm pretty good."
Shade nodded immediately. He was also very satisfied with his planning and performance today.
"So, can you still provide me with stories in the future? Help me make "Hamilton Detective Stories" longer and more interesting?"
The blonde girl asked again in the sound of rain.
"Of course, why not? The story I experienced is so interesting. It is also my wish to present the story to more people after hiding important information."
Feeling the cat under his feet pulling at him, Shade bent down and picked it up:
"Dorothy, I read every issue of your serial in "Steam Bird Daily". Your stories are very good. You will definitely become the most famous popular novel writer in this era of steam."
"Then we have to walk together in the future."
Dorothy said softly.
"Dorothy, this is a very strange sentence, and generally speaking, I would think that this kind of words is very unlucky. But of course there is still a long way to go. This is only an initial solution to the problem that you can't meet. You and Lei
There are still many, many problems to be solved between Qiya."
Shade said, and Dorothy suddenly smiled for some reason. But before Shade asked, the blonde girl shook her head:
"You are really, if it is a hundred and twenty points, I would like to give you a hundred and twenty points. Lecia is in your bedroom. She has something to tell you."
She stood up and "snatched" little Mia from Shade's arms:
"It seems to be something related to the royal family, so don't take this cat with you."
"Is it related to the royal family?"
Shade nodded and walked into his bedroom.
The lights were on outside, but there were no lights on in the bedroom. The chair at the desk was pulled to the bedside. Lecia, wearing a gorgeous princess dress, sat on the chair with her back to the window, bathing in the faint starlight and moonlight in the rain. Silver
The quality crown is sparkling, but it is still not as sparkling as the princess wearing the crown.
Lesia sat under the moon, looking at Shade across the bed in the bedroom:
"Have you finished talking to Dorothy?"
"Well, the bedroom door was open just now. I don't believe you couldn't hear the noise outside."
Shade pointed out this, and the red-haired princess shook her head slightly:
"That's not okay, Shade. Sometimes you have to learn to listen to the ladies."
"Okay, we're done talking. Dorothy said you have something to say to me, is it related to the royal family?"
"Yes, my sister Mona Cavendish is getting married next month. I hope you can accompany me to the wedding."
Shade thought for a moment and then remembered who "Mona Cavendish" was. There were too many sons and daughters of Larousse III the Fire-Leaper. Except for a few who actively participated in government affairs, the other Shade
I really can't remember clearly.
If Shade remembers correctly, Princess Mona Cavendish is only one year younger than Lesia, and is considered the same age as the stranger's body:
"Of course, no problem. You can inform me of the specific time and place."
Lesia nodded, stood up and walked to the window, turning her back to Shade and looking out the window. The side lying on her side facing the kitchen window was the side away from Saint Teresa Square, which is the direction of Yodel Palace.
.
From Shade’s bedroom, you can see the silhouette of the Yodel Palace in the moonlight rain. Strong winds and heavy rain struck the long Tobesk night in late autumn, and the city became a little blurry:
"Shadow, do you know what I've always wanted?"
Her voice became much colder.
"that power."
Miss Carina and Shade mentioned this:
"Royal Power."
"Yes."
Lecia turned to look at Shade and looked at him sharply:
"Don't you think this is strange? I understand."
"Is this strange? You are also a direct descendant of the Cavendish family, and you also have the right to inherit the throne. Although I don't know how much you want, you are indeed qualified to fight for it, and you have done a lot so far.
good."
Shade praised, Lecia did not smile because of this, but asked seriously:
"Rejed's Hamilton, do you really think my thoughts are normal?"
"certainly."
Shade nodded immediately:
"This is an era of change. Everything is changing. Steam factories are rising from the ground, urban life is changing with each passing day, black smoke is covering the sky, and large freighters are galloping between the two continents. This is an era of change, and it is the era of steam.
, those brass-colored pipes and the new inventions that are being added every moment are proof. And in the era of change, people need new leaders. I am not saying that your father did not do a good enough job, but young people have their own ideas,
That’s right too.”
Shade himself was convinced by himself, he nodded:
"Lecia, you are qualified to fight for everything you want."
".Everything you want."
The red-haired princess finally smiled amid the violent rain:
"Yes, I have the right to do this. So Shade, will you always help me on the next road?"
"Of course, haven't I always done this? Just like the difference engine drawings a few days ago."
"Yes, you did very well, very well."
But this sentence was not said by Lesia, but by the girl behind her.
Shade turned his head in surprise and found that Dorothy had walked into the room, and then closed the door from the inside. The blonde girl looked shy, and in the dark, her green eyes seemed to be glowing when she looked at Shade.
After closing the door, there was no light at the door. She stood in the shadow and looked at Shade, and she stood in the moonlight and looked at Shade.
The rain was pouring, and a white light suddenly flashed under the starry sky, followed by a rumbling sound.
"Mia."
"In the living room."
Dorothy said softly:
"Knight, your teachers will teach you the most important lesson tonight."
"Um?"
Shade hurriedly looked at Lesia in front of the window, but as soon as he turned his head, a ribbon with lace flew over. The warm silk ribbon was Lesia's garter. Although she
Also a little shy, but much more generous than Dorothy:
"Hamilton of Rejed, you are a knight of the royal family and have declared your allegiance to the royal family."
The red-haired girl under the moonlight said this.
"um, yes."
"Tonight, you have to serve your princess."
With a serious look on her face, she stretched out her hand to Shade, her fingers slightly bent, as if she was inviting Shade to dance on a rainy night.
Shade opened his mouth slightly, but didn't react for a moment.
【Don’t you understand? 】
"How could you not understand, but..."
"Shad!"
Dorothy's voice came from the door again. When she turned around, another garter with body temperature was thrown over:
"We are not shameless, but since you have really fulfilled your promise, we are also willing to fulfill our promise."
He reached out to untie the white hair tie on his hair, bit the ribbon with his mouth, raised both hands at the same time, and untied the other hair ties that tied the long blond hair behind his head. His green eyes were looking at Xia Xia.
Wow, those eyes are really shining in the shadow at the door.
"But."
"You have to think carefully."
There was a voice behind her again, and she went to look at Lesia under the moonlight. Her Royal Highness the Princess took off her crown and placed it on the window sill that was constantly being hit by raindrops. Then, her hands slowly opened the ribbon that tied her waist.
, biting her lips lightly, smiling in her eyes, and moving very slowly:
"Tonight is the first time Dorothy and I touched each other."
Looking at Dorothy again, the blonde girl in the shadow at the door bent down and took off her black leather shoes, neatly placing them on the side of the door. She straightened up, put her long hair back with her hands, and then untied herself.
Dress Belt:
"This is a day worth remembering."
The princess in front of the window took off her high heels amidst the sound of rain and put them on the window sill next to the crown. She turned to look at Shade:
"So, we decided to play some, some out of line, games that girls shouldn't play."
Shade turned his head back and forth to look at them. They were all approaching Shade:
"And you, not because of gratitude, nor because of tonight's throbbing, just because"
"You have three choices, knight."
The writer lady walked towards Shade beside the bed in the shadows, with a shy expression on her flushed face.
"First, go out now and spend this rainy night with your cat."
Another white light flashed outside the window.
Her Royal Highness the Princess walked towards Shade beside the bed under the moonlight, her face full of excitement and smile:
"Second, your closet is big enough. Maybe you can rest in it, give us your bed, and watch our game tonight."
The rumble of thunder echoed through the city, and the sound of rain became more violent.
Shade glanced at the wardrobe in the corner and immediately shook his head.
"third."
He could no longer tell who was speaking. He could only hear the sound of clothes falling to the ground on both sides:
"Play a game, knight. I really want to know."
".Can you tell us apart?"
"Although Luvia is one step ahead."
".But two people can't be compared to one person."
".I heard that you were promoted to the fourth ring."
".I hope your physical fitness can keep up with your promotion level."
".Two fifth-ring sorceresses are not so easy to deal with."
".Don't get us wrong tonight."
".if wrong"
".There will be a small punishment."
Shade felt a little dizzy. He bet that the two people walking towards him were constantly exchanging bodies:
"you."
"Shut up, my knight."
"Shut up, my detective."
"Aren't you willing to walk the rest of the way with us?"
"It's been a long road, and we've chosen you."
"Know our secrets."
"Understand our desires."
"Tonight, you will help us touch each other."
"Tonight."
"We are all the princesses you want to serve."
I don’t know who chuckled:
[In a moment, do you need help to identify whose inner being you are touching? 】
There was the sound of cat claws scratching at the door, and white electric light pierced the night sky, illuminating the dark bedroom. Amidst the rumbling thunder, the young foreigner had been ensconced in the bedroom by the sorceresses.
He looked at the girls amid the lightning and thunder, and smelled two different but similar perfumes:
"How am I going to apologize to Luvia?"
"Shad, I hope Luvia has helped us practice your skills."
The curtains of the four-poster bed fell, and the violent sound of rain blocked all the sounds in the bedroom, but it could not cover the overlapping figures inside the curtains.
Although it is raining, March is still high, lighting up the small window of Saint Teresa Square in the rain.
Raindrops were densely climbing down the glass at night, which was really disturbing. And the faint moonlight also slightly illuminated the high heels and the small silver crown on the windowsill. The moonlight passed through the elegant arc below the high heels.
The threads, the crown and the fine raindrops on the glass all reflected a faint light in the heavy rain.
The hollow in the center of the crown is inlaid with an oval ruby. The ruby shines under the moon, and there are smaller white diamonds symmetrically distributed on both sides. The shape is clearly like a butterfly with spread wings, flying under the moon.
