Infinite Mask Game

Carol was a little uneasy today. She was tending to the clusters of flowers on the balcony of the second-floor garden, but her mind was outside the balcony.

She frequently walked to the edge of the balcony, put her hands on the railing, leaned out half of her body, and looked at the flow of people below with expectation.

It seemed that she was waiting for someone.

Unfortunately, Leslie chose a very particular location. He knew Carol and knew where she would be at this time, and where was the blind spot of the balcony.

Carol had just watered all the flower pots when she suddenly heard a crisp doorbell.

She hurriedly threw down the kettle and rushed out of the room. She couldn't help but curl up the corners of her mouth while running down.

However, when she opened the door, she saw a woman with ordinary appearance and calm temperament.

Wei Miao did not miss the disappointment and astonishment on her face that she had no time to hide.

To be fair, Carol's appearance and temperament are exceptional, not to mention her superior family background.

Leslie's giving up is incomprehensible. Are all his reasons true?

"Excuse me, what can I do for you?" Although the person Carol wanted to see was not the one in front of her, she still suppressed all the emotions in her heart and spoke politely.

Wei Miao also suppressed the complicated thoughts in her mind and smiled: "Are you waiting for Leslie?"

Carol never expected that the person she didn't want to see brought news about the person she wanted to see. She couldn't help but look at Wei Miao again and said in surprise: "How did you know, who are you?"

"He is my cousin. There were some changes in his family. It's a pity that he can't come, but he asked me to give you this letter." Wei Miao explained the current situation in a few words and handed the letter in his hand to Carol.

Carol had foreseen something from Wei Miao's words.

She took the letter like a lost soul, her eyes wishing to penetrate the envelope: "Can I open it here?"

"Of course."

Even though Wei Miao had only talked to Leslie for a few minutes, she could interpret Leslie's intentions from his behavior.

Leslie wanted to break up with Carol completely, but he was afraid that after meeting Carol, he would be entangled under Carol's pressure.

But he also wanted to know Carol's reaction, which meant that someone had to meet her, otherwise he could just secretly send a letter to Carol.

So he hesitated between "see" and "not see".

Now that she knew Leslie's expectations, in order to get more candy out of his pocket later, Wei Miao certainly had to do things as he wished.

Carol immediately opened the letter, and as her eyes moved down, her face gradually turned pale.

Her eyes were already red.

Wei Miao didn't glance at the content of the letter, but she could guess that it was nothing more than a decisive decision to cut the Gordian knot and a gentle way of complaining and persuading.

If she were in her place, she would do the same.

After reading the letter, Carol muttered to herself: "How is it possible... do we have to separate just because we can't come? Isn't he a wandering bard?"

She suddenly raised her head, her eyes were threatening: "Why haven't I heard him say that he has a cousin?"

This is doubting her relationship with Leslie, Wei Miao had expected it.

"I am his distant relative, and he certainly can't go through all his relatives when chatting with you. I currently live in the town of Toma Stone, so I was entrusted by him to pass the letter to you before he left."

Carol's face was full of "I don't believe it", and she didn't miss any strangeness on her face: "Aren't you... his new love?"

Wei Miao cooperated to perform a confused and stunned expression, and asked back: "Compared with you, do I have any advantages?"

This statement that was not afraid of self-destruction made Carol speechless.

She underestimated Wei Miao's flexible self-esteem bottom line.

Wei Miao took advantage of her daze to say goodbye: "The letter has been delivered, I should go."

"Wait..." Carol wanted to say something more, but she choked.

The hand she stretched out failed to touch the corner of Wei Miao's clothes.

She looked at Wei Miao's back, and a strong sense of unwillingness and sadness surged in her heart.

Wei Miao did not go directly to the Clawens Tavern, but went the other way.

She did not go back to the right path until she confirmed that there was no tail behind her.

The Clawens Tavern was mainly decorated with brown wood, which looked simple and elegant. Wei Miao had an impression of it when she was shopping.

As soon as she opened the door, she saw Leslie sitting at the back and waving at her.

After she sat down, Leslie asked first: "What do you want to drink? I'll treat you."

"A glass of water will be enough."

"...Okay."

Leslie called the waiter and gave him a few instructions, then went straight to the point: "How is Carol?"

"Sad, I can't believe it. She read your letter and really didn't understand your reasons." Wei Miao thought for a while and added, "She thinks you are a wandering bard who will not give up love because of the long journey."

Leslie smiled bitterly and said, "I am a bard who can only play the harmonica, not as glorious as she thought. And traveling around also requires travel expenses."

Wei Miao looked at his outfit that was enough to be a noble, and said, "Can't you even visit once a year? And you come to meet on All Saints' Day specifically because it's more lively on this day?"

This is what she is really interested in. Leslie is a special resident, and this copy is a special copy for All Saints' Day. There must be some unusual connection between him and All Saints' Day.

Remember that the Photographer’s first skill in Traveler is [Real Image], which is described as follows: The camera’s image can help you see the real soul.

Therefore, Wei Miao can almost conclude that these special residents are different from ordinary people in soul, and the difference in their souls is related to the All Saints' Day in Sabo Town.

Even the soul hunters themselves hide secrets. Unfortunately, Wei Miao did not inherit any memory of the soul hunters. The only clue is the few words spoken by the heavy male voice before the copy began.

He is the real soul hunter.

Leslie just blinked his glasses and replied: "I have many affairs in my hometown and the journey is long. It is not easy to come here. Although most of the extraordinary people in Shalan Green Land are in the hands of various churches, they will not guarantee that there will be no robbers on the road. The All Saints' Day in Sabo Town is well-known. Traveling on this day and mixing among all kinds of people is the safest. This day is also the most lively as you said."

Shalan Green Land should be the name of the area where Sabo Town is located. Wei Miao finally has a little understanding of the world view here.

Wei Miao: "If that's the case, shouldn't we stay a few more days?"

Wei Miao wasn't actually sure that he would leave right after All Saints' Day, this was just a test from her.

Leslie seemed to have a plan for this question: "The reason is the same as why I chose All Saints' Day before. There are many people leaving on this day, so it's convenient for me to leave."

Wei Miao thought that maybe Carol had already asked those two questions, which was why Leslie responded so easily.

If the reason for breaking up is still credible, the reason for coming and going is a bit ridiculous. If there are really so-called robbers blocking the road, then this period must be their peak season for business, and how many tourists can there be with him?
