The No. 1 mixed score king in the whole server [StarCraft]
Chapter 56 The Kiss of Thorns (3)
Of the three daughters of the Earl's family, Christine inherited her appearance from her father, while the two older sisters inherited their mother, Lady Mary. They all have long blonde hair and amber eyes.
The elder sister Bella has brighter facial features, while the second sister Bonnie looks much quieter, with a round face and a very gentle smile.
The earl has been out of town recently, and there are only four people left at home for dinner.
The fireplace blazed brightly, and the candlelight cast a tinge of orange on each of the silverware.
When Lin Jing came down, Mrs. Mary was sitting on the main seat wiping the knives with a tissue. Seeing her squinting her eyes, she asked directly, "Christine, how do you feel today?"
Lin Jing pulled out the chair and smiled obediently: "I read a book in the attic all afternoon, I'm fine, thank you mother."
Madam Mary nodded in satisfaction.
The servants brought the supper.
After coming back from the tea party in the manor, the elder sister's complexion has not been good, and the knife and fork are deliberately loud.
Madam Mary glanced at her dissatisfiedly: "Bella, pay attention to your manners."
Bella held her breath and seemed to regard the meat on the plate as a
It was some hateful person who vented viciously: "No, mother, I can't stand this. Didn't you hear how that bitch Helena slandered us, she is a damn bitch, one day I will Her face was scratched!"
Madam Mary calmed down and said slowly: "What did she slander? Isn't it the truth? Don't you have a good sister who went to show love to a commoner and was rejected to shame the whole family?"
Lin Jing: "...." He lowered his head even lower, trying to reduce his sense of existence.
Bella went to the banquet today wearing a rose red court dress with an open front and high waist design. Because of her angry breasts rising and falling, she shouted: "This is different! What right does Helena have to laugh at Christine?" No one in the entire city-state pestered Cyril more than her. I think she is just jealous, and she must have done this kind of thing behind the scenes, but she was not discovered like Christine."
Since Mrs. Mary had these three daughters, her temper has become very good, and she ate slowly: "So, now I give you a sword, and you rush out?"
Lin Jing: "..."
Bella: "..."
The irritable elder sister is going to die of anger, don't look over her head, lean on the chair and don't speak.
The second sister, Bonnie, sighed: "Bella, you don't need to care about this, Helena has always been such an annoying temper."
Madam Mary looked at Lin Jing coldly: "That's right, Christine is indifferent, why are you so angry?"
In an instant, the eyes of the other three people at the dinner table fell.
Lin Jing's scalp was numb from the sight, and he almost bit the fork.He swallowed the piece of meat with difficulty, trying to maintain Christine's persona, raised his head, and smiled sweetly at them.
Mrs. Mary showed a mocking expression as a mother, and the meaning in her eyes probably meant "Sure enough, stupid people are blessed with stupidity".
And Bella was even more annoyed by this silly, white and sweet sister, out of sight and out of mind, she simply turned her head away and fanned herself with her hand.
Only the second sister, Bonnie, said softly: "Look at how beautiful our Christine is. Recently, so many princes and nobles have come to the city. In fact, as long as Christine falls in love with another nobleman at the ball, these rumors will naturally spread." Disappeared. How about Christine?"
Bonnie's amber eyes reflected the candlelight, her gentle surface actually gave no room for objection.
Lin Jing: "..."
What does he think?He doesn't think so.He just wants to score points.
— No, a palace ball?
Palace?
Then he can see the king?
For a moment, my mind changed.
Lin Jing was stunned for a few seconds, then sat upright, raised her head and showed a simple smile: "Prom, of course, Sister Bonnie, I like prom the most."
After dinner, the two sisters took him into the garden.
The swing was hanging under a laurel tree, and Bonnie pulled her to sit on it.
The night is as cool as water, and the ground is covered with mottled tree shadows.
Bonnie was chatting with her softly: "Christine, do you remember what happened that day?"
Lin Jingzhuang's sister will only be ignorant of this, anyway, just ask what you don't know, she lowers her head: "I don't remember."
Bonnie: "On the day you confessed your love to Cyril, I suspected that you were under the spell of a witch. You rushed out, confessed your love to a man in front of countless people at the door of the church, are you crazy? Christine?"
Lin Jing looked confused and bewildered, this girl is so fierce.
Bella stood beside her, Lin Jing's expression finally made her feel better, and said coldly, "Do you regret it now?"
Lin Jing: "I regret it."
Bella exhaled, took a step forward, bent and looked straight into Lin Jing's eyes: "That bitch Helena is right, all the nobles in the city are unwilling to marry a frivolous and disrespectful woman like you. The ball is to welcome those guests who come to the city-state, many of them are princes and nobles from other countries, you have to seize the opportunity."
Bella sneered: "Don't be fooled by another flower."
Lin Jing, as a player, was not at all interested in Christine's past. After perfunctoryly responding to the two sisters, his mind was full of plans on what to do when he entered the palace.
Among other things, there must be a bunch of players hidden among the foreign nobles, and dancing with them would be a waste of time.
When he returned to the attic room, the mouse had already woken up. Lin Jing squatted down and stared at it.
Brother Mouse rubbed his eyes with his paws, his face bewildered.
Lin Jing sighed and said, "Don't look at it, it's just me."
Brother Mouse, I said, "Why did you become a woman?"
Lin Jing: "Aren't you still a rat?"
Brother Mouse just woke up: "......Oh."
Lin Jing tied up her hair casually, sat cross-legged in front of the mouse, took a pen and paper and told it her thoughts: "Tomorrow I will go to the palace to attend the ball, and I will bring you with me. The heart of the rose is on the crown, you Say, is it possible for us to find the crown directly, and then pass the level without worrying about anything?"
The mouse said without hesitation: "You come faster when you dream."
Lin Jing: "Don't be so pessimistic, anything can happen in the game!"
The mouse said: "I have been familiar with this game since I played it - there is no shortcut, only a dead end. The only one who can get happiness in this game is probably the buddy I saw last time when I browsed the forum. He passed."
Lin Jing: "...." As an insider, he wants to say that this matter is not what you think.
But he didn't want to reveal his ID, so he could only change his words: "Then you can go to the palace and take a look around to see where the princess sleeps, you can always do it."
Mouse: "Nonsense, who are you looking down on? I'll make you a map when I come back."
Lin Jing: "Remember what you said."
The first snow fell outside the next day, and it didn't stop until the evening. The carriage set off for the palace.
The wheels made a crisp sound as they rolled through the thin snow.
Lin Jing opened a corner of the car curtain and looked out. The city-state of Ebilon was only a hazy and dark outline under the ice and snow.
Before he could appreciate it, he was pulled back by the eldest sister.
"Christine, are you trying to freeze me to death?"
Lin Jing said softly, "I'm sorry, Sister Bella."
The Earl's Mansion sent two carriages, he sat with his eldest sister, his mother sat with his second sister, and the mouse was sleeping soundly in his pocket.
Taking advantage of this moment, Lin Jing began to try to get some words out of Bella's mouth, his dark brown eyes were full of confusion: "Sister Bella, is it true that the princess will never wake up again after this winter?"
Bella said, "Probably."
Lin Jing continued to ask, "Why did the witch curse the princess?"
Bella raised her red lips mockingly: "It's all thanks to that dead stupid queen."
Lin Jing thumped in his heart, trying not to show his stunned side, but was gentle and surprised: "Queen? What did the queen do?"
At this moment, the carriage bumped violently as it passed by an uneven road, Bella became irritable for a moment, and leaned forward: "You drove the car so badly, are you blind!"
The coachman was miserable: "Miss Bella bear with me, I'll be at the square soon."
"If you let the horse go on its own, you probably won't come to this kind of road." Bella taunted the coachman again, then sat back and tilted her head: "What did you just say?"
Lin Jing: "..."
He could see that the eldest sister was a shrew.
By comparison, he is such a girl.
But there is no way around it. Do you want a boy to dress up as a girl and still think of all kinds of things? The cute and pitiful little white flower is more practical and simple. After all, there is a way of speaking in the fixed thinking of straight men.
Lin Jing said weakly, "I...I'm a little curious about the queen."
Bella rolled her eyes: "What's so curious about this, a stupid woman. The queen couldn't give birth to a child, so she used the forbidden technique to ask the gods for help, but she didn't expect it to be a witch. She succeeded in getting pregnant, but things changed Worse. The queen died after giving birth, and the princess was taken deep into the forest by the witch when she was three years old."
Bella sneered: "The princess sneaked back later, and the witch was extremely angry, making thorns grow all over the castle, stabbing the princess and falling into an eternal sleep."
The carriage stabilized and passed the square. Bella opened the window, and the statue under the snow at the beginning of the cold month looked like an old shadow in the distance.
Bella gritted her teeth: "That's it. It's the statue that the queen made thanks to Dade for the witch when she was pregnant. It's ridiculous and stupid. The god she thought was actually a demon. Now that the truth is out, I can't figure out why the king doesn't smash it now .”
Lin Jing was really afraid that she would throw something out, so he quickly stopped her: "Don't get excited, don't get excited."
Bella took a deep breath and became a bright and cold noble lady again.
After crossing the square, it is not far from the palace.
She played with the fan in her hand, and said to Lin Jing, "Siryl is also at the ball, don't you drive me crazy, you know? Just sit next to me obediently."
Lin Jing: "No."
He wasn't Christine, and he couldn't be mad about a man.
There are bright lights everywhere in the palace, with laurel as the decoration and stars and the moon as the curtain.
When getting off the carriage, Lin Jing almost fell because the ground was too slippery, but Bella helped him stand up.
The eldest sister was in despair: "Christine, are you already weak before you see him?"
Lin Jingyuan had nothing to say, and smiled awkwardly.
At the same time Lady Mary and Bonnie came up.
Mrs. Mary looked up and down the eldest daughter and the third daughter with her hands and eyes, and said to Bella: "You will remember to watch Christine later and don't embarrass her."
Bella nodded repeatedly.
Lin Jing collapsed and covered his face: "Mother, I know I was wrong."
The interior of the palace is gorgeous and extravagant, the dome of the cross-rib arch is resplendent, the scroll corridors and carved stone pillars are scattered on both sides, and there are various multi-leaf separated rose windows on the high part of the inner wall, and the crystal lamp hanging above the head illuminates the bright light.Celebrities gather at the banquet, their clothes are fragrant and their temples are full of shadows, and the piano and flute are melodious.
When Lin Jing went in, he was almost blinded by those precious stones, diamonds, and gold beads.
"Christine, long time no see?" Before he could react, a woman walked towards him.
She is a noble girl with emerald eyes.
She was wearing a gorgeous purple cardigan dress and smiling from a wine glass.
Lin Jing was not familiar with the place and dared not speak to him.
Bella next to her was holding her stomach and lifting her hips, holding her breath, and said in a strange way: "Helena? Damn, it's really strange that you don't cling to Cyril and come over to say hello to us."
Helena smiled sweetly, her eyes full of worry: "I'm worried about Christine. I heard that Mrs. Mary locked her up in the attic for a few days and didn't go out. Look at her face, are you alright dear?"
Bella was so angry that the decorative lace folding fan in her hand was blown out of the wind.
Lin Jing was confused: "Very, very good."
Bella slapped harder.
Lin Jing was just a low-level little Bai Lian, she didn't want to play with the three women at all, so she hurriedly found an excuse to leave.
Fortunately, when Bella and Helena met their enemies, they were extremely jealous. You and I started to fight each other, and the battle was fierce. I had already forgotten Mrs. Mary's words and had no time to care about this younger sister.
Lin Jing was able to slip away, and carried her skirt through the long corridor to the garden of the palace.
The mouse popped its head out of his pocket secretly, its soybean-sized eyes looked around.
Lin Jing took it out from a corner of the garden full of roses, and said softly to it after making sure that no one was there: "Just use this place as the gathering center. After the banquet, you'd better take the princess's room, the king's room, and the rest of the room." The former queen's room was found. Draw me a map."
The mouse was impatient: "I know, I know."
The mouse was small, and after jumping out of his palm, it got into the grass and slipped away quickly.
Lin Jing stood up slowly.
Cleaning up the blades of grass that were accidentally stained on the sleeves, he was about to walk back when he suddenly smelled a smell of blood.
It's not very pungent, it's hidden in the scent of flowers, and it's easy for normal people to ignore it, but Lin Jing's sensitive facial features can tell it right away.
Someone killed someone nearby.
He tensed up instantly, seemingly innocently and romantically broke off the note of the laurel tree next to him, got a sharp weapon, and then walked forward without looking sideways.
"Miss."
A man's rough voice sounded behind him.
The smell of blood became stronger.
Lin Jingyan grasped the laurel branch tightly, but turned around in confusion and doubt under the light: "Sir, did you call me?"
From the shadows of the garden came a tall, burly man, looking straight at him.Dressed up as an aristocrat, with an honest face and a scar on his forehead.
With cold dew and lingering sweet and clammy blood on his body.
Lin Jing made a quick analysis in his mind: This is probably the murderer. Nine out of ten players are players. He can't let him discover his identity. He has to pretend to be an ignorant aristocratic girl wandering in the garden.Judging by his clothes, he might be an invited nobleman. Judging by his appearance...Damn it, he has a scar on his forehead?
Lin Jing: "..."
So Lin Jing, who is not good at acting, showed the behavior that a normal noble girl should have by mistake. She was puzzled, surprised, and then her brown pupils constricted, probably because of fear.
The vigilance and doubts in the strong man's heart were dispelled, and he smiled at him: "My name is John."
Lin Jing said with a complicated mood: "Ke, Christine."
John is indeed a player. His identity is that of the neighboring prince. As soon as he enters the palace, he goes straight to the Heart of Rose.What he just killed was the closest guard to the king, and he won the king's favor in order to help "find the murderer" later.He had prepared his own alibi and the evidence of the murder of the victim, but he did not expect a witness to pass by suddenly.
A noble girl who looks innocent and kind.
She has black waist-length curly hair and dark brown chocolate-like eyes, and a pure white skirt with gorgeous weaving flowers. The girl holds a laurel branch and glances over, more like Diana, the goddess of the moon, descended into the world.
John had wanted to deal with her directly, but now that his desire had come, he had changed his mind.
"Miss Christine appeared alone in the garden, did she get lost?"
John smiled and took a step forward.
Lin Jing was able to beat him, but he didn't have any preparations in advance. Killing this person would definitely expose the player's identity.
Now I can only pretend to take a step back: "No, I just came to the garden to get some air." Don't come here, the last Brother Scar ended badly.
John said, "Then do I have the honor to walk with you?"
He held the bloody dagger in his hand behind his back.
Anyway, the alibi has been prepared in advance, and there are also unlucky people who are responsible for the blame.
Killing one is killing, and killing two is also killing. Now he wants to play with this young and beautiful npc.
Lin Jing stepped back steadily on his high heels, frowning in distress.
John licked his lips, the lust in his eyes even more intense.
Lin Jing said softly, "But, I should go back."
John: "That's a shame, but I can take you back, you're going in the wrong direction honey."
Lin Jing was confused: "Did I go wrong?"
John: "Yes."
The burly man approached the pure girl step by step.
Now is the time for the ball guests to arrive, and the palace is so busy that no one will come here at all.
The worst result is that he pretends to be forced and commits manslaughter.
But a noble girl with no strength to restrain a chicken killed a two-meter-tall man with a laurel branch, no matter how you think about it, it's weird.
Just when Lin Jing was at a loss, he saw a savior.
When he stepped back, he accidentally stepped on the air, but it was not a serious problem.
But Lin Jing still fell down, and let out a painful cry at the same time.
"what."
When the cry surprised John, it also caught the eyes of the passing silver-haired youth.
The corridor is untidy, the young man's cloak is flying, and his slender legs are wrapped in black boots, with indescribable elegance.
"Syril." Lin Jing rubbed his swollen ankles, and no longer cared about the flies beside him. Christine was weak, and tears welled up in her eyes.He looked straight at him, trembling lips: "can you help me?"
Whether it is intentional or not, everything seems reasonable in front of the person you have a crush on.
John couldn't dare to kill three people no matter what, especially since Cyril still had a weapon on his waist, so he could only watch them leave with resentment and viciousness.
"Do you need me to help you?"
Cyril's appearance looks indifferent, but his personality is surprisingly gentleman, and his voice is surprisingly pleasant to hear.
"No, no, thank you, I can go by myself." Lin Jing didn't want to have physical contact with strangers at all, so he held the laurel branch and smiled at him.
Cyril withdrew her hand.
The road to the banquet is so long, and Lin Jing has to maintain his personality, so he can only forcefully strike up a conversation in order not to avoid embarrassment.
"Syril, why did you appear in the garden?"
The young man said in a calm voice, "Come out for a walk."
"Me...Me too. The scenery of the palace garden is still pretty good, there are roses everywhere, ah, did you hear the crickets?"
The garden does have the sound of little bugs.
Cyril smiled, and turned her silver-blue eyes to Lin Jing: "I heard it."
Lin Jing continued to chat awkwardly: "Then do you like it?"
Cyril: "Rose or cricket?"
Lin Jing: "All... let's count."
Cyril: "Kristen, change the question."
Lin Jing: "..."
Lin Jing swallowed his anger and continued to set up the infatuated, silly and sweet person: "Well, do you like Ebylon?"
Ebylon is the name of the city-state.
Cyril raised her thin lips and said, "I don't like it."
Lin Jing: "Then why did you come. For the princess?"
Cyril glanced at him and said nothing.
Lin Jing thought: That's unfortunate, brother, I also came here for the princess, in a sense we are enemies.
"But to wake up the princess, you need to go deep in the forest. Witches are too dangerous."
Cyril smiled: "I know."
Lin Jing was immersed in his acting skills, and his pupils widened sadly: "You know you still have to go?"
What a BDSM of the year, he's a genius.
Cyril watched his performance seriously, smiled casually and said, "This is my mission."
In order not to stimulate his elder sister's poor heart, Lin Jing pretended to be angry and left, throwing him off before returning to the banquet.
Handing the laurel branch to a servant, Lin Jing walked up to Bella.
Bella and Bonnie were raving about everything about Helena, her dress, her upbringing, her grooming.
Lin Jing took a deep breath and continued to stand non-existently.
This banquet does not know how many players are hidden, he must always be careful not to let himself become the target of public criticism.
The elder sister Bella has brighter facial features, while the second sister Bonnie looks much quieter, with a round face and a very gentle smile.
The earl has been out of town recently, and there are only four people left at home for dinner.
The fireplace blazed brightly, and the candlelight cast a tinge of orange on each of the silverware.
When Lin Jing came down, Mrs. Mary was sitting on the main seat wiping the knives with a tissue. Seeing her squinting her eyes, she asked directly, "Christine, how do you feel today?"
Lin Jing pulled out the chair and smiled obediently: "I read a book in the attic all afternoon, I'm fine, thank you mother."
Madam Mary nodded in satisfaction.
The servants brought the supper.
After coming back from the tea party in the manor, the elder sister's complexion has not been good, and the knife and fork are deliberately loud.
Madam Mary glanced at her dissatisfiedly: "Bella, pay attention to your manners."

Madam Mary calmed down and said slowly: "What did she slander? Isn't it the truth? Don't you have a good sister who went to show love to a commoner and was rejected to shame the whole family?"
Lin Jing: "...." He lowered his head even lower, trying to reduce his sense of existence.

And Bella was even more annoyed by this silly, white and sweet sister, out of sight and out of mind, she simply turned her head away and fanned herself with her hand.
Only the second sister, Bonnie, said softly: "Look at how beautiful our Christine is. Recently, so many princes and nobles have come to the city. In fact, as long as Christine falls in love with another nobleman at the ball, these rumors will naturally spread." Disappeared. How about Christine?"
Bonnie's amber eyes reflected the candlelight, her gentle surface actually gave no room for objection.
Lin Jing: "..."
What does he think?He doesn't think so.He just wants to score points.
— No, a palace ball?
Palace?
Then he can see the king?
For a moment, my mind changed.
Lin Jing was stunned for a few seconds, then sat upright, raised her head and showed a simple smile: "Prom, of course, Sister Bonnie, I like prom the most."
After dinner, the two sisters took him into the garden.
The swing was hanging under a laurel tree, and Bonnie pulled her to sit on it.
The night is as cool as water, and the ground is covered with mottled tree shadows.
Bonnie was chatting with her softly: "Christine, do you remember what happened that day?"
Lin Jingzhuang's sister will only be ignorant of this, anyway, just ask what you don't know, she lowers her head: "I don't remember."
Bonnie: "On the day you confessed your love to Cyril, I suspected that you were under the spell of a witch. You rushed out, confessed your love to a man in front of countless people at the door of the church, are you crazy? Christine?"
Lin Jing looked confused and bewildered, this girl is so fierce.
Bella stood beside her, Lin Jing's expression finally made her feel better, and said coldly, "Do you regret it now?"
Lin Jing: "I regret it."
Bella exhaled, took a step forward, bent and looked straight into Lin Jing's eyes: "That bitch Helena is right, all the nobles in the city are unwilling to marry a frivolous and disrespectful woman like you.

Lin Jing sighed and said, "Don't look at it, it's just me."
Brother Mouse, I said, "Why did you become a woman?"
Lin Jing: "Aren't you still a rat?"
Brother Mouse just woke up: "......Oh."
Lin Jing tied up her hair casually, sat cross-legged in front of the mouse, took a pen and paper and told it her thoughts: "Tomorrow I will go to the palace to attend the ball, and I will bring you with me.

"Christine, long time no see?" Before he could react, a woman walked towards him.
She is a noble girl with emerald eyes.
She was wearing a gorgeous purple cardigan dress and smiling from a wine glass.
Lin Jing was not familiar with the place and dared not speak to him.
Bella next to her was holding her stomach and lifting her hips, holding her breath, and said in a strange way: "Helena? Damn, it's really strange that you don't cling to Cyril and come over to say hello to us."
Helena smiled sweetly, her eyes full of worry: "I'm worried about Christine. I heard that Mrs. Mary locked her up in the attic for a few days and didn't go out. Look at her face, are you alright dear?"
Bella was so angry that the decorative lace folding fan in her hand was blown out of the wind.
Lin Jing was confused: "Very, very good."
Bella slapped harder.
Lin Jing was just a low-level little Bai Lian, she didn't want to play with the three women at all, so she hurriedly found an excuse to leave.
Fortunately, when Bella and Helena met their enemies, they were extremely jealous. You and I started to fight each other, and the battle was fierce. I had already forgotten Mrs. Mary's words and had no time to care about this younger sister.
Lin Jing was able to slip away, and carried her skirt through the long corridor to the garden of the palace.
The mouse popped its head out of his pocket secretly, its soybean-sized eyes looked around.
Lin Jing took it out from a corner of the garden full of roses, and said softly to it after making sure that no one was there: "Just use this place as the gathering center. After the banquet, you'd better take the princess's room, the king's room, and the rest of the room." The former queen's room was found. Draw me a map."
The mouse was impatient: "I know, I know."
The mouse was small, and after jumping out of his palm, it got into the grass and slipped away quickly.
Lin Jing stood up slowly.
Cleaning up the blades of grass that were accidentally stained on the sleeves, he was about to walk back when he suddenly smelled a smell of blood.
It's not very pungent, it's hidden in the scent of flowers, and it's easy for normal people to ignore it, but Lin Jing's sensitive facial features can tell it right away.
Someone killed someone nearby.
He tensed up instantly, seemingly innocently and romantically broke off the note of the laurel tree next to him, got a sharp weapon, and then walked forward without looking sideways.
"Miss."
A man's rough voice sounded behind him.
The smell of blood became stronger.
Lin Jingyan grasped the laurel branch tightly, but turned around in confusion and doubt under the light: "Sir, did you call me?"
From the shadows of the garden came a tall, burly man, looking straight at him.Dressed up as an aristocrat, with an honest face and a scar on his forehead.
With cold dew and lingering sweet and clammy blood on his body.
Lin Jing made a quick analysis in his mind: This is probably the murderer. Nine out of ten players are players. He can't let him discover his identity. He has to pretend to be an ignorant aristocratic girl wandering in the garden.Judging by his clothes, he might be an invited nobleman. Judging by his appearance...Damn it, he has a scar on his forehead?
Lin Jing: "..."
So Lin Jing, who is not good at acting, showed the behavior that a normal noble girl should have by mistake. She was puzzled, surprised, and then her brown pupils constricted, probably because of fear.
The vigilance and doubts in the strong man's heart were dispelled, and he smiled at him: "My name is John."
Lin Jing said with a complicated mood: "Ke, Christine."
John is indeed a player. His identity is that of the neighboring prince. As soon as he enters the palace, he goes straight to the Heart of Rose.What he just killed was the closest guard to the king, and he won the king's favor in order to help "find the murderer" later.He had prepared his own alibi and the evidence of the murder of the victim, but he did not expect a witness to pass by suddenly.
A noble girl who looks innocent and kind.
She has black waist-length curly hair and dark brown chocolate-like eyes, and a pure white skirt with gorgeous weaving flowers. The girl holds a laurel branch and glances over, more like Diana, the goddess of the moon, descended into the world.
John had wanted to deal with her directly, but now that his desire had come, he had changed his mind.
"Miss Christine appeared alone in the garden, did she get lost?"
John smiled and took a step forward.
Lin Jing was able to beat him, but he didn't have any preparations in advance. Killing this person would definitely expose the player's identity.
Now I can only pretend to take a step back: "No, I just came to the garden to get some air." Don't come here, the last Brother Scar ended badly.
John said, "Then do I have the honor to walk with you?"
He held the bloody dagger in his hand behind his back.
Anyway, the alibi has been prepared in advance, and there are also unlucky people who are responsible for the blame.
Killing one is killing, and killing two is also killing. Now he wants to play with this young and beautiful npc.
Lin Jing stepped back steadily on his high heels, frowning in distress.
John licked his lips, the lust in his eyes even more intense.
Lin Jing said softly, "But, I should go back."
John: "That's a shame, but I can take you back, you're going in the wrong direction honey."
Lin Jing was confused: "Did I go wrong?"
John: "Yes."
The burly man approached the pure girl step by step.
Now is the time for the ball guests to arrive, and the palace is so busy that no one will come here at all.
The worst result is that he pretends to be forced and commits manslaughter.
But a noble girl with no strength to restrain a chicken killed a two-meter-tall man with a laurel branch, no matter how you think about it, it's weird.
Just when Lin Jing was at a loss, he saw a savior.
When he stepped back, he accidentally stepped on the air, but it was not a serious problem.
But Lin Jing still fell down, and let out a painful cry at the same time.
"what."
When the cry surprised John, it also caught the eyes of the passing silver-haired youth.
The corridor is untidy, the young man's cloak is flying, and his slender legs are wrapped in black boots, with indescribable elegance.
"Syril." Lin Jing rubbed his swollen ankles, and no longer cared about the flies beside him. Christine was weak, and tears welled up in her eyes.He looked straight at him, trembling lips: "can you help me?"
Whether it is intentional or not, everything seems reasonable in front of the person you have a crush on.
John couldn't dare to kill three people no matter what, especially since Cyril still had a weapon on his waist, so he could only watch them leave with resentment and viciousness.
"Do you need me to help you?"
Cyril's appearance looks indifferent, but his personality is surprisingly gentleman, and his voice is surprisingly pleasant to hear.
"No, no, thank you, I can go by myself." Lin Jing didn't want to have physical contact with strangers at all, so he held the laurel branch and smiled at him.
Cyril withdrew her hand.
The road to the banquet is so long, and Lin Jing has to maintain his personality, so he can only forcefully strike up a conversation in order not to avoid embarrassment.
"Syril, why did you appear in the garden?"
The young man said in a calm voice, "Come out for a walk."
"Me...Me too. The scenery of the palace garden is still pretty good, there are roses everywhere, ah, did you hear the crickets?"
The garden does have the sound of little bugs.
Cyril smiled, and turned her silver-blue eyes to Lin Jing: "I heard it."
Lin Jing continued to chat awkwardly: "Then do you like it?"
Cyril: "Rose or cricket?"
Lin Jing: "All... let's count."
Cyril: "Kristen, change the question."
Lin Jing: "..."
Lin Jing swallowed his anger and continued to set up the infatuated, silly and sweet person: "Well, do you like Ebylon?"
Ebylon is the name of the city-state.
Cyril raised her thin lips and said, "I don't like it."
Lin Jing: "Then why did you come. For the princess?"
Cyril glanced at him and said nothing.
Lin Jing thought: That's unfortunate, brother, I also came here for the princess, in a sense we are enemies.
"But to wake up the princess, you need to go deep in the forest. Witches are too dangerous."
Cyril smiled: "I know."
Lin Jing was immersed in his acting skills, and his pupils widened sadly: "You know you still have to go?"
What a BDSM of the year, he's a genius.
Cyril watched his performance seriously, smiled casually and said, "This is my mission."
In order not to stimulate his elder sister's poor heart, Lin Jing pretended to be angry and left, throwing him off before returning to the banquet.
Handing the laurel branch to a servant, Lin Jing walked up to Bella.
Bella and Bonnie were raving about everything about Helena, her dress, her upbringing, her grooming.
Lin Jing took a deep breath and continued to stand non-existently.
This banquet does not know how many players are hidden, he must always be careful not to let himself become the target of public criticism.
