Chapter 160 At this moment, the curtain is gradually rising

Queens, in the luxurious villa of the Earl Hall's house.

Audrey stood in front of the full-body mirror, staring at herself in a daze, looking a little worried.

And just then, she suddenly heard a familiar voice coming from behind.

"Audrey, what are you worried about?"

Through the mirror, Audrey saw the embers that appeared with a blue light. Audrey was not surprised by the sudden appearance of the embers, but felt a little relaxed from the bottom of her heart, because this was what she asked for - the so-called old place refers to her family, after all, they rarely meet in other places.

"ember,"

Audrey pondered the words and asked, "What do you think of Mr. Fool's tips?"

The Ember said concisely:

"It has nothing to do with the ritual planned by the royal family."

"I think so too."

Audrey nodded and said softly, "Mr. 'Fool' knows what the royal family is going to do, and knows Embers your plan. If he is to remind other members about this, the prompt should be a broader 'Augustu', rather than Edsac Augustustu and individuals."

"But Prince Edsack is a member of the royal family, and what happened to him must be related to the royal family's planning."

Hearing Audrey's analysis, Yu Chen asked in a deep voice:

"What do you think of Edsack?"

"I never liked him."

The girl frowned slightly and analyzed carefully, "He had pursued me for a long time before. At the dance party a few months ago, she enthusiastically stopped me to talk about boring topics and play with self-righteous humor. But a few days after that, his attitude became quite cold and even deliberately avoided me. This may be related to what happened to Edsack."

After pausing, Audrey hesitated, "Ember, what do you think?"

There are many reasons why Audrey doesn't like Edsack. The most important reason is that as a believer in the "Goddess of the Night", she cannot accept the Augustus who have believed in the "Lord of the Storm" for generations. Because this means that their arrogance, arrogance, contempt and extremeness towards women have penetrated into the other party's bone marrow, and it is difficult to make any changes. This is what Audrey most intolerant.

So when she got up, she was quite repulsive of Edsack's pursuit and attentiveness, and even a little disgusted. Prince Edsack's change in attitude before and after also made Audrey feel a little strange, because this was too abrupt and there was no warning at all!

After listening to Audrey's analysis, Yu Chen said slowly:

"What you analyzed is very reasonable. Edsack is obviously not Nan Tong. He was still pursuing fiercely two days ago. When he met again, he became extremely cold. He looked down on Beckland's most dazzling gem, which is completely unreasonable."

Audrey rolled her eyes and said irritably:

"I'm serious."

"I'm serious, too."

Yu Ember's face did not change, but said seriously:

"Edsack is obviously not the kind of beauty that is still in a mess. His attitude towards you has gone from diligent pursuit to extreme coldness in just a few days. There is only one possibility, that is, he already has a better candidate and deliberately keeps away from you because he is afraid of being misunderstood by the other party."

"A better candidate?"

Audrey frowned slightly, which made Edsack feel that he was a better candidate than her, at least in terms of appearance, or even surpassed her. But Beckland's aristocratic circle is said to be small or big. Over the years of social seasons, Beckland's aristocratic Audrey has basically known him.

And being able to be rated as Beckland's most dazzling gem, which itself shows her excellence. At least among her peers, there will be no one more beautiful than her in the aristocratic circle. This is not arrogance, but a fact. Although Audrey is not proud of it, she cannot ignore objective facts.

Moreover, there has been no news about Prince Edsack's love with any noble lady in recent months - you should know that in the past, even if the other party talks with him, sometimes people can talk about it. If Edsack's love with any noble lady, it is impossible to have no news unless...

Audrey murmured:

"Unless the better candidate in Edsack's mind was not a nobleman, but a civilian, he did not dare to reveal any information."

Of course Audrey was a little curious about the candidate who was better than herself in Edsack's eyes. But she still felt a little strange, because a commoner was destined to be a princess, and the only one who could become a princess was the noble. Even if the other party's appearance was outstanding, he would only be one of the concubines in the end, which was not enough to make Edsack give up pursuing himself for her.

After all, Edsack is obviously not a passionate person, just like Audrey's impression of Augustus - the arrogance of women in this family is deeply rooted in the bones, and it is impossible to make changes for an ordinary woman, even if she is beautiful, unless the woman herself has other "magic powers".

For example, Audrey, if Edsack really decides to pursue her, he will probably give up contact with other women because of this. But this is not because Audrey's appearance is outstanding, not because she is Beckland's most dazzling gem, but simply because her father is Earl of Hall, because of the power and wealth her father has!

Even if Edsack would give up his pursuit of other women, it was just to show his wholeheartedness towards Audrey and thus win the support of Count Hall, and that's all.

A civilian woman, without power and wealth, looks alone are not enough to make Edsack devoted. And now Edsack's changes are only another possibility...

"Extraordinary ability."

Ember tapped the table with his fingers and slowly spoke, "The royal family has been working with the 'Witch Church', and a witch can make Edsack devote himself to her!"

Audrey obviously thought of this, but she still frowned and asked:

"Can't it be because of love?"

Yu Chen thought for a while and nodded slightly:

"It's possible, but I still think the possibility of extraordinary abilities is higher."

Audrey nodded silently and agreed to Yuchen's guess. He did not care about everything for love, such a person must exist, just like her. But Edsack, or Augustus, could not have such a person. They would not believe in the so-called love at all, and their arrogance towards women has penetrated their bones!

So as Ember said, the possibility of extraordinary abilities is indeed higher.

Even though he had guessed some of the information, the girl still frowned and said in confusion:

"But this still cannot explain what will happen to him? The Witch Church is in a cooperative relationship with the royal family. He... they will never harm Edsack, and the royal family will not allow such a thing to happen."

Yu Chen shook his head calmly and said slowly:

"This may not be necessary. Without the acquiescence of the royal family, will the Witch Church dare to let the Witch seduce Edsack? Being able to be tempted by the Witch itself means that Edsack is already an abandoned son. The only question is, where should this abandoned son be used?"

Audrey frowned and thought silently in her heart:

"Dad and Hibert should know more, so you can wait until they come back in the evening to ask."

——

Joewood District, 15 Minsk Street.

Klein, who ended the Tarot Club, went down to the first floor and sat in the living room, feeling the warmth of the fireplace constantly scattering outwards. He swayed quietly on the easy chair, not reading newspapers, not flirting with magazines, and not reading books. All this was so peaceful and silent, until the sound of the doorbell jingled.

Clean, wearing a home shirt and cashmere vest, got up and walked outside. He found that the visitor was a little beyond his expectations. He opened the door and laughed:

"Good afternoon, Emlin, shouldn't you help at Harvest Church at this time?"

The visitor was Emlin White, the vampire with his hair slanted and a little feminine, who was handsome and feminine. Hearing Klein's greeting, Emlin's expression, who had originally been arrogant, froze and finally recovered.

"I have something to consult you, Sherlock, Moriarty, Detective!" Emlin spitted out word by word.

After asking him to enter the living room, Crane returned to the easy chair and asked with a smile:

"What's the matter? The consultation fee is 1 pound, but it cannot exceed 1 hour."

Emlin White said in contemplationly, without caring about his words:

A big shot asked me to do something... Although that thing can help me solve hidden dangers indirectly, it also contains very high risks. I have no friends and I am afraid that my parents will worry, and you are an extraordinary detective with rich knowledge... What suggestions do you have? Reject, or accept?"

Solve hidden dangers? Remove psychological hints? Klein said carefully:

“I can’t give any advice if the word ‘thing’ is the case.”

Emlin White was silent for several seconds, gritted his teeth, and lowered his voice:

"It has something to do with that fool."

"Ah?" Klein almost raised his hand to clear his ears.

——

In the evening, Earl Hall and Hibert returned home one after another, and the family gathered at the long dining table in the restaurant. The rich dinner flashed with attractive colors under the illumination of many candlelights.

Audrey cut the steak and asked curiously without hiding it:

"Dad, has it happened to Prince Edsack recently?"

Earl Hall's knife and fork stopped, raised his eyebrows and said:

"What have you heard?"

Audrey, who read out the information he wanted from his father's reaction, responded with a smile:

"Some rumors, this seems to be true?"

Earl Hall rubbed his forehead and said:

"It's not a serious matter. Audrey, I know your thoughts, so there's no need to hide it from you. This involves a more common royal scandal. In short, Prince Edsack fell in love with a civilian woman. This led to the death of a descendant of a noble family, and the royal family blocked the spread of things and did not want to have too much impact."

Audrey felt awe-inspiringly in her heart, and she felt a chill all over her body:

"Same as Ember's guess! That civilian woman is probably the witch! There must be a bigger conspiracy behind this!"

Audrey said carefully:

"The Prince Edsack in my impression is not such a person, and the rumors have already spread that maybe this is not the case they really want to cover up."

"Maybe not?" Earl Hall chewed the words and frowned unconsciously.

Audrey stopped and led the topic in another direction without any trace. Her eyes revealed a hint of confusion and confusion, and asked:

"Didn't Alfred say he wanted to come back half a month ago? Why is there no news yet?"

"It's a good thing."
