Mermaid [Interstellar]

Chapter 43 Chapter 43

The Emperor's ill health came with the news that Marshal Adolf had fled in defeat.

Cyril and Alice were deadlocked, and Alice still insisted on her own opinion.

"I hope you will think about it. If something happens to Erwin, no one can guarantee what Marshal Adolf will do." Cyril dropped this sentence and left angrily.

Alice was left alone to sit blankly.

It wasn't until George came to knock on the door to remind the eldest princess of the mermaid king to come to her that Alice reacted.

"What's the matter with you?" Ai Li raised her eyes and glanced at the eldest sister. Her energy has been consumed rapidly in recent days, and she looks like a different person when she meets her.

"My second sister is coming back."

Alice raised her eyebrows: "So? What does this have to do with me?"

The eldest sister closed her eyes: "I killed that male corpse."

Alice was very interested: "You want me to help you? This is what I promised you."

"No, it's not the male corpse, it's... my second sister."

"If you make it clear, you will be subject to legal sanctions... I can help you suppress it, although it is a bit troublesome." Alice clicked her tongue, "Do you think your second sister is more important?"

If the eldest sister goes to jail, she cannot inherit the mermaid throne.

What is her idea?

Allie touched her chin and looked at the elder sister.She has always known that this mermaid is very smart, and sometimes it is difficult for her to guess what she is thinking.

Sister: "I intend to let Pearl take over, what do you think?"

"No." Alice didn't give her an affirmative answer.

Alice's lack of cooperation made the elder sister unable to answer the conversation.

Seeing that the eldest sister was still talking, Alice raised her hand to stop her: "I understand your worries, I promise, if you can't ascend the mermaid throne, neither can your second sister."

This seems to do the trick.

The eldest sister looked deeply, and nodded in response: "My second and fourth sisters have already been married, and their hearts are no longer in Lanxing. I really don't want them to intervene."

"Also... about Pearl, I definitely didn't mean to use her to tie you up." The elder sister quickly guessed what Alice was thinking, "She is really suitable——I always hope that Blue Star will get better and better." The better."

"I agree." Alice nodded, Pearl was indeed very smart.

……

"Miss Pearl is awake," George reported to Alice.

Alice stretched out her hand to invite, and said to the eldest sister, "Then shall we go over?"

Eldest sister: "Okay, I'll also take a look at Pearl by the way, I am very relieved that she is by your side."

This flattery made Alice very comfortable. She nodded her head reservedly in response, and took the lead in leading the way. The dissatisfaction that Cyril had brought before seemed to slowly fade away with the sound of footsteps.

Just as Pearl was trying to get George to send a letter to let Alice come over, she looked up and saw her serious eldest sister.

Although the eldest sister expressed that she has no objection to her and Alice, but...

This development seems to be a bit fast?

Pearl looked at the eldest sister who was following Alice, and then at Alice who was looking at her with concern.

——There is an illusion of seeing parents.

With the elder sister here, it's hard for her to do small tricks.

Pearl sighed silently in her heart, and tried her best to put on a weak and trying to face people: "Alice... big sister..."

Eldest sister: "..." After all, she is the younger sister who has been raised for many years, and she still knows a little about Pearl.

Alice lowered her eyes and reached out to support her: "Don't get up if you can't get up, just lie down."

Pearl lay down and winked at the eldest sister when Alice was not paying attention.

Eldest sister: "..." She bid farewell to Alice as soon as she received Pearl's wink.

After the eldest sister left, there were only Alice and Pearl left in the room.

Pearl's voice was like a mosquito: "Master Duke, has my liking caused you trouble..."

"Why do you say that?" Alice looked a little unnatural, she turned her head slightly to avoid Pearl's direct gaze.

"I don't know why, but I always feel that you look familiar...very kind..." Pearl laughed at himself, "Isn't that a cliché?"

Hearing Pearl's familiarity, Alice froze a little, and she stretched out her hand to gently pin Pearl's scattered bangs.

"Very old-fashioned." Alice answered Pearl's question honestly.

Pearl smiled lightly: "That's it, but I still want to say it." She took Alice's hand and pulled her closer to her side, "I always thought that the Duke didn't have feelings, did he?"

"That's your illusion." Alice took her hand out of Pearl's without lifting her eyelids, "You'd better have a good rest."

run away.

Looking at Alice's back, Pearl sat quietly for a while and suddenly laughed.

"...Is it your illusion that you don't feel it?"

Alice deliberately avoided Pearl.

Obviously, although Pearl stayed in the office, as long as Pearl was present, Alice was not there-she even asked George to send her meals.

After eating, Erwin slumped lazily on the chair, watching George quietly tidy up the dining table and kicked the legs of the table: "Why doesn't Alice come to eat? Every time it's time for dinner, there is something urgent to deal with?"

Cyril turned his head, glanced at Erwin's sitting posture, and then looked at Pearl who was sitting upright on the other side, and silently closed his mouth.

After George finished clearing the table, he answered Erwin's question in a flat voice: "The Duke is very busy."

Pearl nodded goodbye to the people at the table after eating, and slowly got up and left.

She walked slowly along the wall, step by step.

Cyril glanced at it, then watched Erwin start running around after eating: "..."

It seems that to expect Alice to fall in love with Erwin, she has to wait until she is really blind.

He was just about to ask Erwin to pay attention, but before he told him the news of the marshal's defeat and escape, he heard Erwin exclaim: "Pearl fainted again!"

George hurried to Alice and told her about Pearl.

"Have passed out again?" Alice didn't care about eating, she threw down her things and went out with George, "Have you gone to find Julie?"

George pointed out: "I don't think it's useless for Julie to come, so I'll invite you first."

"..." Alice paused, "You know?"

George: "Miss Pearl has an impression of you, and she can tell what it is. I told you early on—don't touch her too much."

"Do you think... is this a good thing or a bad thing?" Alice hesitated, "If she can remember, is it a good thing or a bad thing?"

"It's up to you."

George pointed to the door of Pearl's room: "Here we are."

The conversation came to an abrupt end.

Even though she knew that Pearl was pretending to be sick, Alice couldn't help feeling distressed when she saw her pale face.

Pearl had paid attention to Alice as soon as she came in, and she gave Alice a small smile.

It looks even more distressing.

Alice looked at Pearl and decided to speak up: "What do you want?" She couldn't say harsh words to her.

In fact, Pearl didn't know what to do, she was just doing things based on intuition, and she only had a vague feeling that she really wanted Alice to admit something.

As long as you think about it deeply, you will fall into hesitation, just really want Alice to admit that she cares that she likes her or even... loves her.

Pearl was taken aback by her bold idea, since she said she didn't care before.

Alice didn't wait for Pearl's answer for a long time, and sighed slightly when she saw Pearl's frown frowning.

——Not yet when she needs to make a choice.

"You'd better think about it carefully." Alice left behind these words.

Cyril Erwin came to find Alice, and Erwin already knew about his father.

"Wait for now," Alice said, "I don't want Pearl to misunderstand anything. She's really in a bad situation—you've seen that."

Cyril nodded helplessly, and Erwin looked at the two of them in confusion, a little dissatisfied: "What charades are you talking about?"

"The marshal will be fine, he is so old and cunning." Alice patted Erwin on the shoulder to comfort him.

Erwin's mouth twitched: "Should I say thank you?"

"No thanks." Alice accepted.

"I've already arranged for the 'Grey Pigeon' to deal with the 'Skeleton Group', and I believe there will be results soon." Alice turned to talk about another matter.

"If Philip can be found, I believe His Majesty the Emperor will relax the pursuit of the marshal and Erwin's orders." Alice said.

Cyril nodded in agreement, Erwin was the only son of Marshal Adolf, and as long as Erwin was on their side, he would support them.

Several people discussed the follow-up.

The small meeting ended late.

It was late at night, and a crescent moon hung high in the black night sky.

George helped Alice pack her things and made her bed.

Alice sat alone for a while, and suddenly asked, "What's the matter with Pearl?"

George stopped and looked at Alice who was pretending to be nonchalant: "I want to know, what do you think?"

The Yunhaixing mermaid doesn't care whether she can get true love by marrying a nobleman, but Alice and Pearl once thought about the matter of eternity.

"I... I don't know." Alice's eyes were confused, "I just thought that without her, I would live alone for 500 years, but with her, I only need to live 200 years, and I and her After 300 years, 200 years cannot be recalled for 300 years..."

George was shocked. He only wanted his little master to stop dwelling on the past, but he never thought that with the heart of the Davis family, love is love. If that person is gone, I am afraid that he will be alone survive.

Was what he did wrong before?

He was suddenly panicked. He wasted a lot of time, allowing his little master to enter the last 200 years ahead of time, recalling those decades.
