Chelsea was a little surprised when she heard the eldest lady's instructions, but her face remained calm. She lowered her eyes on the bridge of her nose and answered.
"This will take some time, Miss, because the people I trust and the people he trusts largely overlap."
"Well, be careful. There should be someone else behind Seres who is instigating him."
"Yes, thank you for reminding me." Then the head maid left.
Lorraine Hill continued to sit on this small balcony, looking at the beautiful night view of the harbor city. The quiet moonlight was reflected on the sea. With the ups and downs of the waves, the moonlight became broken, sparkling and rippling slightly in her field of vision. She
You can even hear the sound of sea water lapping on the beach in the distance, the soothing sound of water, like a soft lullaby.
Seres is Angus's butler and has been by his side for nearly ten years. In his early years, he was a noble officer of West Wind and went to the battlefield. It was West Wind's war against the northern barbarians. It was not a large scale, only the Kingdom
Some nobles in the north participated. Although West Wind won, it also suffered a lot, so that it exposed its own weakness and could no longer completely suppress the chaotic forces in the territory.
Later, the nobles in the north shrank completely and only took care of their own castles and cities, but no longer interfered with some marginal villages. This also led to bandits becoming rampant and mercenaries becoming popular in the north.
At that time, after Seres retired, he worked as a mercenary for a period of time because he was not the eldest son and had no inheritance rights. He happened to meet Angus who came to Westwind to do business. The two had many similar experiences. They were both born into Westwind nobles.
Both were unsuccessful second sons in the family, and both experienced many ups and downs. Later, Angus invited Seres to be his deputy, and eventually he gradually became Carites' chief steward. He was also the most trusted by Angus during his lifetime.
one of the people.
It is hard to imagine that such a person would betray, but Lorraine Hill did sense that something was wrong with this butler.
First of all, when Mrs. Mela opened the door and saw Seres, she said 'you' and later changed her name to 'you'. At that time, Mela recognized Seres immediately, and there was even a hint of something in her tone.
I was afraid and changed my mind later.
Secondly, when Mrs. Mela broke the tea cup, when he stepped forward to pick up the pieces, his eyes and expression were not so kind. At that time, his back was turned to Lorraine Hill. Maybe he thought that the girl could not see it, but in fact, Lorraine Hill
I noticed this from the reflection in Mrs. Mela's pupils.
Finally, when Lorraine Hill asked Ceres to investigate what happened ten years ago, his first reaction was to refuse. Although it was a gentle reminder, he may not have realized that this was the first time he refuted the girl's instructions.
, and this kind of behavior should not appear in a good housekeeper.
After leaving Mrs. Mela's residence, Lorraine Hill asked him to investigate the past ten years ago. This was actually a test. If he didn't know the truth, out of instinct, he would have inquired about everything for ten years.
People and things related to the past.
But if he already knows the truth, in order to continue to hide it, he will deliberately avoid some people and things, which will make his behavior unnatural. And these points he avoids will in turn remind Lorraine Hill. So no matter what he does
Actions will reveal part of the truth.
Lorraine Hill sat quietly on the wooden chair, unconsciously tapping the teacup in his hand with his fingertips. Slight ripples appeared on the amber liquid, and a subtle and crisp sound was also heard.
When did I become so scheming? She was suddenly thinking about this problem, feeling a little scared and conflicted.
As people grow up slowly and experience many things, it is difficult to maintain the innocence and simplicity of children because the reality is complex, cruel, and full of accidents.
She understands this. In that era of information explosion, a person who has just grown up has seen, heard, and even experienced stories that people in this world cannot imagine. There are all kinds of strange plots and countless characters' intrigues.
Various strange cases with suspense reasoning.
Perhaps outsiders cannot understand Seres's behavior, but Lorraine Hill has prepared about twenty logical and reasonable reasons and plots for him in his head, such as ethical revenge, hatred for love, and ten
Years of lurking and so on. So much so that she was not surprised that something was wrong with Ceres, and was even a little curious.
What kind of distortions will this outwardly excellent and resolute butler have inside?
After traveling on the road called life for too long, the prosperous scenery and ups and downs experienced along the way can easily make people gradually forget the original intention when they set out.
But when Lorraine Hill discovered that he was using some tricks without any teacher, he also felt a sense of alarm. Scheming can be used as a temporary means and method, but blindly playing tricks will make people lose the courage to fight to the death, and
The initial persistence and dream in my heart.
When you are weak, it is understandable to use tactics due to the situation. The weaker you are, the more you have to learn wisdom and planning. But as you grow up, this behavior gradually becomes an instinct, and you always think about everything you do.
Take shortcuts and always want to achieve higher efficiency than ordinary people. When you see boring tasks and things, you don't want to do them. You always weigh whether doing something is cost-effective, as if your whole life can be calculated, everything is business, and everything is for profit.
maximize.
It is undeniable that this is also a kind of strength, but what is the purpose of being strong? You claim to be smart, and for the sake of profit, regardless of the bottom line, but little do you know that you have already forgotten your original intention when you set out. When you put your most precious dream on the scale to weigh it
, in fact, he is already committing a crime.
After slowly drinking the cooled tea, Lorraine Hill decided not to think about these intrigues for the time being. She didn't like to speculate on other people's complicated hearts, and was more willing to do some practical things, so she returned to the room, closed the door, and told
Maid, she will rest early tonight, and then begin to perfect and practice her own extraordinary sequence.
No matter how many conspiracies and cunning schemes the other party has, she remains unchanged in response to all changes and overcomes all laws with one force. Strength is the constant truth in the world.
There seemed to be the light of alexandrite shining in the transparent light blue eyes. Lorraine Hill's natural sequence had long been stabilized. It was just that some time ago, the focus had been on the demon sequence. In addition, it was not stable during the journey, and today it finally stabilized.
Take some time to advance to Natural Sequence 3.
In the sea of consciousness, an emerald green gem is like a bud waiting to bloom, with brilliance constantly flowing on it. As the girl focuses her attention, countless manas slowly float up from the sea of consciousness, forming a spiral shape and surrounding it.
, slowly blending into it, constantly filling and strengthening the structure, and beginning to outline new lines and veins.
In the dark bedroom, bursts of emerald green fluorescence appeared on the girl's body. Her hair, which had been dyed golden by the extraordinary potion, began to return to silver, and then dyed with a faint fluorescence, turning into a cyan color between blue and green.
The bouquet placed on the dressing table began to grow rapidly under this burst of fluorescence, with vines and buds poking out of the vase and spreading along the dressing mirror towards the ceiling.
One, two, three... more and more vines spread all over the ceiling until it is completely covered, and then along the walls, covering the wardrobe, bed, wooden chairs, tables, etc. These vines look like
Lorraine Hill was the sun in the darkness, with all the leaves facing her, and the bursts of fluorescence emitted from the girl's body seemed to have some magical power, giving these plants endless energy and excitement.
When Lorraine Hill was promoted and opened his eyes, what he saw was a fairy tale-like scene.
Emerald green plants filled the entire bedroom. The tender green branches and leaves stretched quietly, and flowers bloomed among the green leaves. These flowers are blue, light red, and bright yellow, and the stamens of the flowers have a natural sequence.
The magic power emerges, emitting a faint light in the bedroom at night, like small night lights, illuminating the bedroom, making it appear peaceful and harmonious.
