Violet Orchestra

Chapter 3 Brienne's Necklace 3

When the city fell into chaos, Violet and his party had already left the dangerous area, and went against their original path—they found the previously hidden carriage when the sky was turning white, and headed north to the town of Dysnope.

"Which direction do you think the guards will chase?" Hodge grinned, the camouflage on his face had been washed off, and he had returned to his usual terrifying appearance, like a bloodthirsty killer when he was drinking.

While removing her make-up, Violet replied casually: "As long as we can't catch up with us, it's better to run south."

With enough time and environment in the car, his makeup removal process was more than ten times more complicated than that at the fountain just now.He first took off the wig, revealing the original long red hair, and then put a layer of creamy substance on his face, rubbing it lightly on various places first, and after washing it off, he changed a new basin of water and poured it into a bottle of green hair. The potion was stirred by hand.

Following his movements, a smell of seaweed filled the carriage, and Petra moved a little away from him, saying with a straight face, "I hate this smell."

"It's gone when you apply it on your face." Violet spread the green unknown substance that quickly turned into a paste on her face, and carefully painted her face in green except for her eyes, nose and mouth in front of the mirror. , and then smiled at her like a green-faced monster, "Look, there's no smell."

Petra angrily covered her face with a messy travel book, so as not to be embarrassed by him.

Violet was not shocked by her reaction, she hummed a song and lowered her head as usual, and continued to apply the second layer on her face.This time Birkins couldn't bear to look straight away and turned his face away. When he painted the eye sockets with another color of paste, Hodge went out to drive the car with the corners of his mouth twitching.

After a while, the red-haired poet washed off the three layers of mud on his face, raised his head refreshed, and began to spray something else on his face, this time it was rose scent, which made him feel refreshed from the past. The green-faced seaweed monster transformed into a fragrant figure such as the rose fairy.After finishing the tedious work of removing makeup and washing his face, Violet finally put away his messy ointments and began to quickly put on a new makeup for himself.

When he washed his face just now, he looked like a white and clean young man with a handsome face. Although his facial features were exquisite, there were a few extra small freckles on the bridge of his nose and under his eyes, which made him look a little ordinary, unlike Yasuo. There is still a gap in the handsomeness when Cheng hooked up with Miss Brienne.But when the poet smeared his face with a brush like a paintbrush, and finally covered up those freckles, he suddenly became very handsome again, like a luminous prince, suddenly illuminating the narrow compartment.

"Are you going to play someone's young master this time?" Hodge asked, who came in to get dry food.

Violet sprayed some lotion on his head, and his red hair gradually faded to an elegant light brown.He put on an exquisite coat with satisfaction, and said while looking in the mirror: "There is a big landowner in Desnope. The son of the landowner is named Davis, and he has curly hair of this color."

Petra seemed to wake up, she took off the book covering her face and listened to him.

"According to the information I inquired, this young master Davis died in the Black Forest three months ago, but the landowner of the Dysnope family did not announce the news. Some people said that he loved his son like his life, because David Davis' death is crazy; some people say that Davis is not dead at all, he brought back the priceless treasure from the Black Forest, everyone in the Desnope family has become a sealed bottle, and no one dares to reveal a little bit. information."

Violet put on the well-fitting lambskin shoes she got from somewhere, stretched her fingers with a smile, and nodded to Birkins who was closest to him.

"We will now pretend to be this missing Master Davis and his servants, and take the mountain road north by Daysnoop." He said, dressing Birkins as a bearded coachman, " That young master was sick and unable to see the wind since he was a child, so it is not difficult to pretend to be him, we just need to avoid the people from the Dysnope family who stay behind closed doors—”

Before he finished speaking, a stranger's voice suddenly sounded outside the carriage. Violet immediately shut his mouth and listened carefully to Hodge's conversation with him.

"Sir, I'm a foreigner. I lost my way at the fork ahead. Do you know how to get to Yasuo City?" A middle-aged man's voice asked.

Hodge waved his horsewhip impatiently, and said casually, "I don't know, we were just passing by."

"That……"

"We're in a hurry," Hodge interrupted, "you can ask someone else."

He drove the carriage past the man quickly, and Birkins looked out from the gap in the curtain at the rear of the car, and confirmed: "A man, I don't know if he has any accomplices, he looks like a tramp."

Violet was about to speak when Petra suddenly said, "Let's change direction."

"Why?" Hodge asked.

"Regardless of whether this person is a tramp or not, as long as he reveals to the guards in Yasuo City that he has seen such a carriage, we will be discovered. Now change the road immediately, or speed up and enter Desnope. We have to do it in the shortest possible time Change transportation."

Petra said, redrawing a line on the map, extending from their current position to the east of Yasuo.Violet took a look and nodded: "It's a good route, it should be able to avoid the pursuers."

"Then let's go."

They flattened the tracks left by the wheels with a small trick, and then changed direction.But it turned out that their new route was not a good choice, because after walking for a while, they heard the sound of fighting in the distance.

Hodge listened outside for a while, then raised the car curtain and said, "One gang beats one, and the besieged people are almost unable to hold on."

"Can it be avoided?" Birkins asked.

"No, we will definitely meet them if we continue on this road." Hodge turned over and got out of the car, pulled out his dagger from the boot, and signaled them to wait there, "I'll go and have a look."

Using the bushes on the side of the road as cover, he approached the fighting scene carefully.Hodge originally thought that this extra fight would end soon, but when he poked out half of his head from the bushes, the besieged man was still stubbornly resisting.

It was a swordsman who could still be called a young man in his age. He was clearly at the end of his battle, but he didn't seem to know how to admit defeat. He was still dealing with the opponent, trying to find a loophole from the siege of more than ten people.The light armor on his body is useless in such a battle of attrition, but it is already the last line of defense - once the light armor is scrapped, he will immediately receive double-strength attacks.

He suddenly bent down to avoid a long knife that was coming at him, and a golden pendant hanging around his neck fell out of the light armor and hung in mid-air.Hodge's eyes lit up, and he was about to see more clearly, but the boy bent over and saw half of his head exposed at a parallel height, with a surprised expression on his face.

Unexpectedly, he would be discovered by such a coincidence. Hodge immediately squatted down and hid behind the bushes. He maintained this height and turned behind the tree. He was afraid that this guy would tell him that he hid aside to watch the excitement, so he hurriedly left the scene and returned the same way.

"Haven't surrendered yet?" Violet was a little surprised. "I thought that when you passed by, there would only be a corpse left. It seems that those who besieged him wanted to catch him alive."

"It means that he will have valuable things on him." Hodge thought of the golden pendant he saw just now, and was a little moved, "I saw that the group of people who besieged him is not strong, and Birkins and I should be able to easily solve it." , why not..."

"Do it here, do you want to tell the pursuers that we have diverted?" Petra said coldly.

"It's okay, just clean it up." Violet didn't object, because he remembered something, "Petra, do you remember what we went to Yasuo for?"

Petra was stunned and said nothing.

They went to Yasuo City because they had no money, because they heard that there was a harvest festival and a concert there, and they wanted to take the opportunity to earn some money and go on the road. Thinking of this, Violet suddenly came back to his senses: "Why all of a sudden? Withdrawn? I didn't find any problem."

"Your Miss Brienne is all right." Birkins put on his hat, "but her father seems to know what we are going to do, and looks like he wants to keep you as a son-in-law."

"Isn't that nice?"

"You mindless vase, what reason does he have to keep you and us? That city lord is not a music lover at all. In his eyes, you are probably no different than a beautifully crafted music box. You picked it up." Pei Tera stuck her dagger in her waist and motioned for Birkins to get out of the car with her, "He will keep us only because that Miss Brienne has something out of the ordinary to do, and he wants to give his daughter Keep a few toys...the kind that can be thrown away after use."

She quickly jumped out of the car and left with Hodge and Birkins. Before leaving, she told Violet: "Stay in the car honestly and don't be caught by wolves."

Violet was scolded by her, and stayed in the car obediently. She recalled the look in the eyes that the Lord of the City looked at them. It was true that she didn't have much kindness, but Miss Brienne...

That lady was not a little white rabbit, but the maturity and smoothness she put on told him that she was indeed a well-protected little girl.It was precisely because of this that Violet actually didn't have much interest in her, even if he didn't run away overnight tonight, he wouldn't touch such a little girl.

After all, if he hadn't run out of money, he wouldn't have taken this group of guys who didn't have the slightest enthusiasm for music to any music festival.Violet pouted, and took off the coat that he had just put on for a while—he didn’t have to play Master Davis anyway—he decided to check the situation over there.

"Hey, vase." Hodge was holding a dagger against a mustache's throat, and threw something at him who was walking, "It's just in time, one escaped, Petra is chasing it, you go and our Let's communicate with 'customers'."

Violet caught the knife he threw over, curled her lips in disgust: "What do you want?"

Hodge's eyes fell on the golden pendant exposed from the collar of the "customer", he suddenly smiled and walked towards that person.

It was a very young human male, with nice black hair and green eyes, and a rather young and handsome face.He is wearing a light armor that is about to be scrapped. From Violet's eyes, the light armor is obviously not advanced enough, it is the dress of an ordinary adventurer.

But... he looked at the young man's pendant, and it was not surprising that Hodge would be interested in it.It was a shell carved from a whole Menola stone, and it was impossible to tell what was inside, most of it was a portrait or something commemorative, but just this shell alone, he was confident that he could sell it for 700 gold coins on the black market.

The four of them only need to spend 80 silver coins per day from food and drink to accommodation. This is a huge sum of money, enough for them to buy a lot of things and live a very luxurious life.

Thinking of this, Violet showed the most standard smile to the young man, squatted down and looked at him level: "Hello, sir."

"Hello." The other party said subconsciously.

"My companion is afraid that you will be frightened, so let me comfort you." Violet saw the emotion he wanted in his eyes, and threw aside the dagger that Hodge threw to him, expressing that he did not Threat, "We happened to pass by here, and we shot without authorization when we saw you being besieged. I hope I didn't offend you."

The young man quickly waved his hands, as if he was a little puzzled by his overly friendly attitude: "No, no, thank you and your companions for saving me, I will repay you well."

This is the answer that Violet wanted, and the smile on his face was even stronger, even with a fake face on his face, he smiled like a spring breeze: "Then..."

"I have a deposit in the nearby town of Dysnope." Faced with his smile, the young man rubbed his fingers a little cautiously. "If you don't mind, I can take you to withdraw it as a reward."

Violet's smile froze on her face.

"Don't bother, we just need this." It was the first time he saw such a cooperative guy, and he was afraid that the so-called deposit was only a little money, so he quickly pointed to the pendant on the other party's chest, "Our team There's a girl in there, and she likes decorations like this."

Petra happened to drag a half-dead guy back like a dead dog, and almost spit out when she heard this sentence.

The young man with his back to her didn't know the truth, so he took off the necklace attached to the pendant directly: "This one, just give it to her, the reward will be calculated separately, thank you for saving me."

Violet, who was cheeky and lied, suddenly didn't know whether he should take it or not. He glanced at the young man who didn't know whether he was kind or stupid, and hesitated to speak.

"Take it." The other party stuffed the pendant into his hand, patted the dirt on his body and stood up, "I'll take you to Dysnope, it's very close here—wait!"

Violet was taken aback by him before realizing that he wasn't calling herself.I saw the young man stepped forward and stopped in front of Hodge, looking like he was going to die bravely, but his mouth was in a discussing tone: "Can you not kill them?"

"Huh?" Hodge seemed to have heard some joke, "Brother, they are here to kill you, do you still want to give them some travel money back home?"

"...I know, but..."

Hodge wiped the neck of the man in his hand neatly, turned around and walked to the next one without listening to his nonsense.

"Our whereabouts can't be revealed, these people can't stay." Petra threw the one she was dragging to Hodge, and explained blankly, "We meddle in your business and help you, and they will die."

The young man turned pale, as if he wanted to say something, Violet patted him on the shoulder: "You will feel better if you imagine them as a group of pigs."

"Thank you." The young man watched him throw the pendant to Petra, thought about it, and found a safer topic, "Elaine Robin, thank you for saving me."

Violet raised her eyebrows: "You're welcome."

The disguise on his body has not been removed, he is still the handsome young master with honey-colored hair, his expressions are vivid and attractive, and the young man blushes a little after he glanced at him.Satisfied with the effect, Violet stroked her soft hair and reached out to him: "Let's go, since you are so persistent, let's go to Dysnope."

He cleverly brought Elaine's attention back to their purpose. Sure enough, the young man who had no intentions was really pulled up obediently by him, and he took out a handkerchief from his pocket and handed it to him: "My hand may be a little bit Dirty, thank you."

Violet took the simple checkered handkerchief with a complicated face.
