In the afternoon, Ringer took Leticia back to Cloud Whale Sky Island. First, he threw the unruly little bat to Countess Neville. By the way, he recounted what happened on the top of the mountain word for word, emphasizing the details.
Her eavesdropping behavior and unruly attitude.
The countess first kindly thanked Ringer for taking care of her and not allowing Leticia to act recklessly. Then she said to her good granddaughter with a smile, "You won't have any vacation for the next week. Please be honest."
Learn how to be a good person in Tianxin Church...well, be a good vampire.
Leticia naturally resisted to the death, but her little arms and legs were unable to shake the majesty of the countess for the time being. Seeing the unwillingness and aggrievedness in her eyes when she was dragged away, and the look of "How dare you betray me"
"" expression, the young man felt that at least until the next reincarnation, the little bat would not be very friendly to him.
Although, it was not very friendly in the first place.
Afterwards, he learned from Sister Livia that Saint Charlia had already gone to Olvera one step ahead, probably to borrow her royal power to find some necessary information. In this case, Linger did not go there anymore.
Instead of bothering me, I changed my goal and headed to the alchemy workshop in the forest, intending to find Lorena.
But as soon as I walked outside, before I could knock on the door, I heard noisy noises coming from inside. The sound was so loud that it spread outside, disturbing the peace of the forest. Several gray-tailed finches jumped from the branches with fluttering wings.
It got up and flew away with a chirping sound.
The hand that was about to knock on the door froze in mid-air, and Ringer listened intently to what was going on inside the house - of course, he did not have any eavesdropping habits, but because all the people on Yunjing Kong Island were women except him, every time the young man entered the house,
We must be extra cautious at all times to ensure that certain embarrassing accidents do not occur. In Alice's words, they are "welfare incidents."
For example, the beautiful girl is changing clothes, the beautiful girl is taking a shower, the beautiful girl is sleeping on the bed with a defenseless posture... You ask Alice why she speaks so clearly? Of course it is because she has tried it herself. It is a pity that she has tried it.
I haven't run into this kind of welfare event several times, but because of the mysterious appearance, I scared some timid girls so much that they complained for several days, complaining that they were not the protagonist and could not trigger events.
of.
At this moment, the voice coming from inside the house indicated that this was not a welfare incident, but a bit like bullying——
"Please, give it back to me, woohoo!"
"I can give you anything, but I really can't do it without this thing!"
"Oh, as long as you give it back to me, I will do anything!"
Well, my voice was full of tears, my voice was full of emotions, my voice was hoarse, it simply made those who heard it sad and those who saw it shed tears.
The only thing that feels a bit inconsistent is that the owner of this voice is Alice.
How could Alice, who did evil and committed all kinds of evil and could be called the tyrant of the island, be reduced to such a state? Rorona might have a way to cure her, but it wouldn't be to this extent, right? Ringer was seduced
Curiosity aroused, he coughed slightly to indicate to the people in the room that I was coming in, and then pushed the door open. At a glance, he saw Princess Haiqi sitting behind the workbench, watching the fun with a smile, and the two
parties involved.
One is Alice, a golden-haired maid, who is hugging her thighs shamelessly, crying without emotion but with no volume. It feels a bit like the famous drama "The Unjust Case of Faroe" and she threw herself at the door of the court and shouted "I
Of course, the court actress whose acting skills are much worse. The other one is Gloria, who is still dressed as a big pirate. She holds a blunderbuss in one hand and presses the black muzzle against Alice's chest.
Her forehead was used to prevent her from rubbing her nose on her trousers from time to time. She held a shining silver cassette in her other hand and pointed it at the wall lamp on the wall, admiring it through the soft light.
The graceful appearance, elegant posture and movements are like an artist admiring gems.
Lin Ge couldn't help but remain silent while watching this scene, and then turned to ask Rorona beside him: "What are you doing?"
Even if it’s performance art, it’s a bit too advanced, right?
Princess Haiqi, who had been watching the excitement, was about to explain to Ringer when suddenly an abnormal flush appeared on her cheeks. She quickly turned her head away, covered the area below her nose with her palms, and coughed softly. Every cough
With a sound, his chest rose and fell slightly, and he coughed several times before stopping.
The two people who were confronting each other seemed to have become accustomed to this situation, and neither of them looked back. Linger slowly frowned. He noticed that Rorona was no longer wearing those glasses, and immediately reacted: "Yours."
The disease...has changed again?"
"kindness."
Princess Haiqi picked up the handkerchief on the table, wiped her nose elegantly, and then nodded gently and replied. Her voice was originally very clear and clear, but now it seemed a little dull because of her illness: "However,
It's just a minor cold, nothing serious."
After a pause, she added: "I don't know why, but this time the symptoms don't seem to be as serious as before."
Since Ringer met her, Princess Haiqi has suffered from lung disease, calf muscle atrophy, aphasia and blindness due to the curse. Compared with this, a cold with such mild symptoms is really nothing to mention. It may not be curable.
This will make her feel more uncomfortable than an ordinary cold patient, but it will not affect her normal life.
The young man knew clearly in his heart that the effectiveness of the curse was beginning to weaken. With the help of Bai Ye,
"Speaking of which, I've been having weird dreams lately. I always dream about a girl named Lorelai. She looks very similar to me, and there are also a group of familiar companions around me. But I can't even remember the content of the dream.
It’s too clear, so I don’t remember their names.” Rorona put down her handkerchief and blinked her crystal blue eyes at the young man: “Does Mr. Ringer have any clues about these dreams?”
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Lin Ge silently looked away: "How can I understand your dream?"
"That's right." Rorona smiled slightly and did not continue to ask.
Ringer pointed at the two people who were still confronting each other on the field: "So, can you tell me what's going on now?"
"Well, it's not really a big deal."
Under Princess Haiqi's explanation, the young man quickly understood the cause and effect. To put it simply, after many days of hard work, Rorona finally completed the enhancement work of the "Sky Orbit: Behemoth Zero" cassette
, and notified Alice in advance to come and take it away. As a result, Gloria somehow found out about it, so she stepped in and took the cassette away before Alice, keeping it in her pocket.
.
As for your question about why Gloria wanted to grab the cassette... Needless to say, of course it was because she was a pirate!
There is no pirate who doesn't steal things, but as a big pirate, Gloria has a rather discerning eye and looks down on ordinary gold and silver treasures. Only treasures that are rare in the world can win her favor.
Alice's cassette was taken by her.
Of course, there may also be elements of revenge: in her previous identity, Gloria, as a popular ball player, was tricked by Alice several times. Unfortunately, her character was not aggressive, so she could only endure it silently. Now it's time to change.
If you have a strong character, why don't you make good use of it and take this opportunity to teach Alice a lesson?
Do you dare to disobey me as a great pirate?
Gloria asked, and Alice kept saying she didn't dare, mainly because she was afraid of the gun in her hand. No one was sure whether the gun was filled with roses or bullets. It would be better if the bet was right.
, if you lose the bet, won’t your life be lost?
But Alice didn't want to lose her cassette, so she chose the most useless method: kneeling down, hugging her thighs, and crying.
"This is the situation." After Luo Lona finished speaking, she spread her hands and said with a narrow smile on her face: "How about you, do you want to stand up for Alice, dear Mr. Ringer?"
Hearing these words, the two people confronting each other in the field cast their gazes in unison, but Gloria's gaze was full of meaning, while Alice's gaze was full of expectation. She blinked her eyes vigorously, indicating that it was time for the savior to appear.
If you can save me from the fire and water, Ai-chan will burst into tears of gratitude and pledge your body to me... Well, it's a bit disgusting.
Lin Ge was silent for a moment, then simply turned around, ignored the gazes of the two people, and said to Rorona: "Let's talk about business."
Gloria showed a satisfied smile, while Alice fell into despair and shouted at the top of her lungs: "Hey, Ringer! You can't just die without saving me! You can't, you can't be so arrogant!!!"
very noisy.
Ringer's face was expressionless. Rorona seemed to see through his thoughts. She snapped her fingers lightly, and several alchemy fairies flew over. They lowered the curtains to separate the alchemy area from the workbench, and also separated Alice from the workbench.
The sound of shouting was isolated, and the whole world suddenly became a lot cleaner.
"This is more suitable for conversation." Rorona smiled playfully, and then motioned to the alchemy fairies to put the tea set for Ringer and brew the tea. Under their hard work, the fragrance of black tea was as sweet and fragrant as jasmine.
Soon it will spread in the room.
Ringer originally wanted to finish his business and leave, but since the host had already extended an invitation to stay as a guest, he was not too unfashionable. Fortunately, time was not very urgent, so the young man still had time to stay for a couple of drinks.
Black tea, savor the leisurely winter afternoon in the snow-capped mountains.
The processes of placing the tea sets and brewing the tea were left to the alchemy elves. After all the processes were completed, Rorona personally lifted the teapot and tilted it slightly. The steaming black tea flowed out of the spout in a beautiful arc.
The thread gradually filled the ceramic tea cup under the quiet gaze of the young man. The color was very special, a bit like the red of mead, but clearer, as if snow had melted inside. Two seemingly unrelated substances,
Blended into a transparent and flawless gemstone, it reflects the focused and serious face of Princess Haiqi.
While pouring the tea, Rorona introduced it to the young man: "This is the snow chun tea left by Miss Neville when she was a guest last time. It is said to be an extremely rare tea that only grows on the snow peaks at an altitude of five thousand meters.
It is also a magical plant that is widely used in alchemy and potions. It seems to be sold at a high price among magicians."
She smiled: "Ms. Neville also searched all over the Osor Snow Peak to find a few snow tea trees. As a result, all the tea leaves picked were used to make tea. It's such an elegant hobby. Don't you do that?
What do you think, Mr. Ringer?"
Lin Ge's words were concise and to the point: "Old people will always have quirks of one kind or another."
In comparison, Countess Neville's hobby is considered the most harmless one.
"Although it is the truth, I think Miss Neville will not be very happy when she hears it." Rorona smiled slightly, pushed the teacup in front of Linge, then opened the sugar bowl next to it, and asked Linge first: "Want it?"
Any sugar, Mr. Ringer?"
Linge shook his head and refused. Rorona was not surprised. She said: "I have long thought that Mr. Linge is not the kind of person who likes to add sugar to black tea. Miss Neville said the same."
Then you still ask me?
Ringer glanced at her, and Rorona pretended not to see her. She added two granulated sugars to her cup, stirred gently with a silver teaspoon, and watched the frosty-white sugar cubes slowly dissolve in the honey-red black tea.
Slowly melting, she said with a smile: "Miss Neville also said that every time she drinks tea with you, it is very boring, because you always like to talk about business while drinking tea, which disturbs her good mood."
What are you insinuating?
Lin Ge raised his eyebrows calmly: "So, when you and she were drinking tea, didn't you just talk about business?"
"Miss Neville and I are good tea drinkers~" Rorona's fingers were still holding the teaspoon, stirring unconsciously, while her other hand was supporting her cheek, and she said thoughtfully: "With Olvera, it's the same.
Book buddies, and drinking buddies with Miss Shelia...well, although she doesn't mix wine; besides that, Metien and I also exchange pharmacology with each other and help Ietta refine various props she needs.
Occasionally I discuss cooking skills with the proprietress, and I often take care of her sheep on Xiaoxia’s behalf. Oh, by the way, Xino is not on the island these days, so Brandi is also taking care of me. She just returned to Kongdao and said she would thank me well.
Woolen cloth."
Princess Haiqi blinked her big eyes and said sincerely: "Do you think I am very powerful and can have a good relationship with everyone on Kong Island?"
If what you say is true, then it is.
But it is impossible for a young man to know everything about everyone's interpersonal interactions on Yunjing Kong Island, so there is no way to judge whether Rorona is joking or telling the truth. He silently picked up the teacup and took a sip.
Then he immediately frowned: compared with the sweet and fragrant aroma, the taste of drinking it is slightly bitter, and this bitterness fills the lips and teeth, just like the irritation of snowflakes falling on the collar, which makes people's spirits suddenly rise.
Suddenly he cheered up.
"Hahaha."
Seeing Ringer's reaction, Rorona smiled as expected, smiling so happily that her eyes turned into two crescent moons: "I seem to have forgotten to tell you, although Miss Neville often comes to drink tea with me.
, but this kind of Xuechun tea is the only one I can’t get used to drinking because it’s too bitter.”
"as well as--"
She leaned forward slightly, and a bright line of sight was fixed on the young man's face through the dense fragrance. Her tone was meaningful: "I seem to have forgotten to tell you, although I can fight well with everyone on the island.
Relationship, but you are the only exception, Mr. Ringer. After all, every time we meet, we talk about some very boring topics, even more boring than the topics you and Miss Neville talked about when drinking tea.
