Night visit to Donora

"How could she be dead... how could an ordinary businessman provoke an assassin..." Donora looked at Caesar who was not breathing in front of her, and muttered to herself.She didn't want to believe it, but the facts were in front of her eyes, so she had to believe it.She stepped forward a few steps, ready to pick up Caesar's body, but was held by Bi Haiwei who followed from behind.

Bi Haiwei clearly felt her fingers trembling slightly, and a flash of distress flashed in her heart.She knelt down to help Donora put on her shoes, and said softly, "Honey, you go to the bathroom to take a shower first, and I'll take care of it here. Aren't you going back to Hana Town soon? Go and tidy up. "

Donora quickly recovered and nodded.She shook Bi Haiwei's hand back and went upstairs quickly.The most important thing now is to collect Taylor's body and track down the murderer. Before she can avenge Taylor, she has no time to grieve.After hastily rinsing his body with water, he put on the long skirt before even drying off the water droplets on his body.Fortunately, viruses such as colds and fevers have no effect on blood races... Donora was distracted for a moment, and quickly jumped off the balcony.

Caesar's body was temporarily buried in a cool basement, and Donora and Bi Haiwei rushed to Hana Town together.When the two of them secretly arrived in Hana Town, the faint morning light had already appeared in the sky.Donora glanced down at the blood-stained letter in her hand, and said in a low voice, "Find a house near Taylor's manor to live in. First of all, we need to understand the whole story...to find the murderer." The hand holding the letter tightened, "I want to read this letter quietly."

Bi Haiwei nodded, "There are many idle manors over there, let's find one at random to live in... The matter should be resolved soon."

……

The two finally found a house that had been abandoned for a long time. From the window sill of the bedroom of this house, they happened to be able to see the movement in Taylor's room.Taylor was dead, but her body "sleeped" on the desk as if she was still alive.If no one approached, it must be thought that she was just too tired and wanted to lie down and rest for a while.Donora opened the letter in her hand while distractedly paying attention to the movement on the other side.

As in the past, two-thirds of the letter was written about daily trivial matters, and the remaining one-third was written about business matters. The "Eternal Life" trading house is much better under Taylor's management than when the two of them work for a few days and rest for half a month.Taylor also said that she has united with the nobles in Emerald Town and is working on setting up a larger trading house. She intends to monopolize the economy on the eastern side of the country.In the end, her handwriting became a little scribbled, but it was because of too much joy.

"I didn't expect that I could still get pregnant...it's Caesar's child. After the matter of the large trading house is completely settled, I'm going to propose to Caesar...I thought I couldn't get pregnant again, but I didn't expect...I I'm so happy. Caesar has been by my side all the time, and I... have gotten used to his presence. At that time, I just wanted a lover, someone who could sleep with me...I didn't expect him to end up be my husband.

The wedding should be held at the end of the year, and I will send you an invitation letter at that time, you two must come... In the future, my children can still call you godmothers. "

The letter paper in her hand was almost scratched by Donora's fingers, but thinking that this was Taylor's last letter, she held back and read the contents of the letter from beginning to end several times, trying to find clues in it.

"Baby, a man has entered Taylor's room." Bi Haiwei's eyes fell on Taylor's room opposite, and when there was movement there, she immediately reminded Donora who was reading the letter.She glanced at the man again, and couldn't help saying: "This man... looks familiar to me."

Donora paused when she heard the words, and when she saw the man's face clearly, her eyes darkened a bit, "That's Elizabeth's man, who came here with Lucia at that time." Immediately, she saw the man The man calmly picked up Taylor's body and carried it to the bed, and finally raised his hand to cover her with the quilt affectionately.It seems Taylor wasn't dead, she was just too fast asleep.

"Taylor's death must have been caused by Elizabeth." Donora said firmly, and then thought of something, her already pale face became even more ugly, "I, it was me... I should have thought of it long ago." She tightly held Bi Haiwei's hand beside her, "I shouldn't have handed over the trading house to Taylor...I should have found someone else..."

Bi Haiwei quickly understood Donora's meaning and hugged her to comfort her.Donora believes that the original two-legged confrontation has become the dominant one, so the queen will send someone to kill Taylor.Although Taylor does have some influence in the east, but her foundation is not stable, the queen should not make such a move...

"Honey, it's not your fault..." Bi Haiwei looked at the man opposite, "Let's go to him and ask him."

Donora nodded, but continued, "I should have realized sooner...Taylor shouldn't have died." The hatred for Elizabeth in her heart deepened again, and maybe she shouldn't wait until ten years later.Anyway...Elizabeth's heir already has an excellent mentor, and a flash of determination flashed in Donora's eyes, let's get this matter over earlier.

Taylor's room has been very quiet, except for the man who entered and exited the room a few times, no one else has come in.He didn't seem to intend to reveal the fact of Taylor's death, as if he was waiting for something.The two looked at each other, and a bright light flashed in their eyes, and then they said in unison: "Large trading house."

By the way, if word of Taylor's death got out, the alliance of the big exchanges would be put on hold.But isn't that more obedient to the queen?If the small powers don't unite, as time goes by, they will soon disappear from people's sight... Donora thought about it, and a thought suddenly appeared in her mind: Is Elizabeth planning to wipe out these small powers? !

If Elizabeth really intends to do this, it must not only target the east, but the entire country under her command.Donora suddenly remembered that Aunt Carrie had said that the queen had great ambitions... Combined with the current situation, is she planning to quickly gather all the power in the country and expand her territory outward?But the country is not peaceful.There was a natural disaster a year ago, and the capital is still recuperating, not to mention the small towns on the edge.How could the queen suddenly have such an idea...

"It's because she's pregnant." Bi Haiwei said suddenly, "Otherwise, I can't think of other reasons."

Hearing the word "pregnant", Donora's hands couldn't help tightening, and her voice became a little colder, "She can mutilate other people if she is pregnant, and she can kill people without anything!"

"Of course not, baby." Bi Haiwei kissed Donora's palm, "Don't get angry and ruin your body."

***

When it was late at night, the two started to move.Bi Haiwei used hypnotism to trick the man into saying that the person who assassinated Taylor was indeed sent by the queen, and the reason why the queen wanted to get rid of her so eagerly was indeed because of her pregnancy.The Queen hopes that everything can be arranged properly before the child is born. After the child is born, she can cultivate an heir with peace of mind.The reason for not announcing Taylor's death in time is to use her name to bring together small forces in other eastern regions, so that she can wipe out these small gangsters at once.

Donora frowned, "Although these merchants are only small forces, they are involved and connected with the nobles and civilians at the upper and lower levels... They are like the stones in the middle of the pyramid. The middle stones were suddenly destroyed, and the upper ones Can the stone stay on it with 'peace of mind'...or does she have other plans?"

The dull-eyed man couldn't answer Donora's questions because he had no answers to them in his head, so he didn't speak.

Donora's eyes turned slightly, but she didn't bother to spend time guessing the thoughts of a woman who was about to die. She looked at Taylor, who was lying peacefully on the bed, but her makeup was a little messy, and went into the bathroom to take a basin of warm water.She wrung out the handkerchief and gently scrubbed Taylor's cheeks.She took the cosmetics from Taylor's dressing table and carefully dressed her up.

Bi Haiwei looked at Donora's gentle appearance of lowering her head to draw Taylor's eyebrows, and unconsciously muttered: "You have never helped me with my eyebrows..."

Although Bi Haiwei's voice was very low, it couldn't escape Donora's ears. Her depressed mood was dissipated by her words. She stopped writing, "Even dead people's vinegar?" She said after a pause : "Let's talk about it when you die someday."

"...Baby, why are you so cruel." Bi Haiwei snorted softly, "Besides, I'm going to die, how can I know if you will help me draw my eyebrows..." She looked at Donora's beautiful side face, Pretentiously sighing, "Although I really want my baby to help me draw my eyebrows, but I am even more reluctant to leave my baby...the baby I raised will be cheaper for outsiders." She walked to Donora and raised her eyebrows. He stroked her soft hair, "I will always be with you."

The softness in Donora's heart was hit by Bi Haiwei's last words, and the circles of her eyes couldn't help but feel a little hot.In order to cover up, she lowered her head even more, "I will talk sweetly."

"It's not just what I said, I will definitely do it." Bi Haiwei looked at Donora, "Are you feeling better now?"

Donora was taken aback, and responded in a low voice.

Bi Haiwei saw that the corners of Donora's lips curved, and she was relieved from the bottom of her heart. She was afraid that the baby would put Taylor's death on her.Since last night, her baby has not smiled.

Donora helped Taylor put on her makeup, and according to what Caesar had said before, she searched for the pink long dress from the bottom of the closet.Bi Haiwei looked at the pink long dress she took out, and said belatedly: "Do you still want to help her change?" Seeing Donora nodding, Bi Haiwei stood up instantly, and from her hand " "Grab" the skirt, and said with a smile: "It's so tiring to change other people's clothes, let me do it, you go to rest."
