[Pride and Prejudice] Enemy of the World
Chapter 28 Word Street
The next day Elizabeth got up and looked, only to see that her hatred value had reached eighteen, which was not as high as she imagined. After checking, everyone's hatred degree was different. Some people contributed a little to themselves, and some people only contribute a few tenths to themselves, it feels like...
She used to think that the hatred value was basically calculated as a whole 1, at least there should be no decimal point, but now she knows that the hatred value can be so accurate.
And for the vampires contacted by Elizabeth, this was indeed a night of refreshment.
The shocking power brought to them by such a magical thing as QQ is still unknown, but Elizabeth's hatred value can be said to be particularly well drawn.
There are probably more than 21 vampires in the whole of England. I don't know the exact number at all. After all, that's all I got out of the lottery. I don't know if there will be omissions.
Rothschild.
Elizabeth kept thinking about this name when she was washing, and always felt that she was dreaming, but pinching herself felt very painful.
"Lizzie, you still don't seem to be in good spirits."
Mr. Bennett sat filling his pipe after breakfast, looking at ease.
Elizabeth glanced at his mustache, and said casually: "Dear father, it may be because there are a lot of things recently. You are so smart and wise, you must know why I am not energetic."
She meant what she said, and Mr. Bennet rarely just smiled, but didn't speak.
Elizabeth knew it at a glance. Mr. Bennet must have known about the "deal" between Mrs. Bennet and Collins, but he did not object, which made Elizabeth suddenly depressed.
Although he didn't expect much from the family, Mr. Bennett was the only one who didn't have any hatred towards him.He is also like this now... Elizabeth is not lamenting him as a person, but lamenting the values of the entire era.
She always felt that if she walked out of this house, she would definitely develop in two extreme directions.
One is a mass of dead ashes, the other is magnificent waves.
It's a pity that the previous events were unpredictable, and she could only feel a slight sense of loss.
To put it bluntly, the hatred value is just a kind of disgust that others have towards you, and it is not necessarily true hatred. It is more of a joke. The generation of this kind of hatred value is quite normal.
There is no gold, and no one is perfect. Elizabeth herself dare not say that she has never had "hatred" towards others, nor can she say that her natural behavior has no hatred except for intentional hatred.There are too many things that offend others unintentionally. I'm afraid that if there is no systematic reminder, sometimes Elizabeth doesn't know that the hatred value can also be generated in this way.
"Sir, here is Elizabeth's package."
Mrs. Jenny knocked on the door and came in. She glanced at her strangely, and then put down her things and went out.
It was indeed a package, not the usual letter.
Elizabeth was stunned, and stopped Mrs. Jenny before she went out: "My package? Mrs. Jenny, did you make a mistake?"
"I'm not yet at that old age, Lizzie, and please trust my ability to judge handwriting. In fact, I'm sure it's a gentleman's handwriting. It's very strange..."
Mrs. Jenny did not forget to show her abilities.
After hearing this, Elizabeth subconsciously glanced at Mr. Bennett.
Mr. Bennet looked at her also with a strange look.
So Elizabeth lowered her head again and looked at the package in her hand. She looked at the address on it, but there was no signature. Suddenly, her pupils shrank and she almost didn't call out.
London, Cross Street.
The name was so familiar that Elizabeth no longer knew how to face the package, whether to open it in front of Mr. Bennett, or go back to her room to open it by herself.
She was really afraid of tearing something terrible... Karen was the one who left the message asking her to go to Cross Street in London for help, right?
When I came into contact with him by the name of Queen of High Heels, I didn't feel how scary this person was, on the contrary, he was a very gentle person, but——when Karen appeared outside the grove that night, outside my window, It's impossible not to be scared.
Elizabeth was really not sure what was in the package.
"Probably the book I borrowed from a friend last time arrived. Father, I went up to unpack the package, and I'll have afternoon tea with you later."
She still looked polite, but she was a little anxious inside.
Mr. Bennet didn't see anything strange from her face anymore. The daughters were older and had their own secrets, so let her go.He tapped his pipe and said, "Just remember to get together with relatives. I think the relationship between you and the other sisters seems to be weakened. No matter how big the enmity is, it is still relatives."
I have to say that Mr. Bennett's insight...
Elizabeth buried her head, but the alpacas were running wildly in her heart. She didn't know what to say anymore. What Mr. Bennett said was indeed the truth, but after all, she was not from this family, and she couldn't feel any affection. It also takes time to adapt to the environment.
What's more, I have been trying my best to promote hatred, and I have a bad relationship with my sisters, is that normal?
It's just that the scope of her death must have exceeded Mr. Bennett's understanding, so there is no need for explanation.
When going upstairs, she saw Mary and the others coming down, and Jane passed her by without saying a word.
It's just that when she passed by Mary, she took a second look at herself.
But Catherine and Lydia still greeted Elizabeth ignorantly. After all, these two girls were a bit silly, often naive and confused.
Elizabeth was eager to know what was in it now, so she ignored the situation here and quickly returned to her room.
In fact, after several of her sisters went down, they heard that Elizabeth had received a package from a strange place, and they were very curious, suspecting that Elizabeth had hooked up with someone.
And only Elizabeth herself knew, where did she hook up with someone?This is clearly trouble.
She still remembers what Ah Ro said yesterday, and let herself go to get close to Karen.
Elizabeth felt that if Karen knew what she had done, it would probably be Karen instead of her crying in the toilet.
It was wrapped with a beautiful dark blue silk scarf. When Elizabeth touched the texture of this thing, she felt very familiar. It was silk. After opening it, there was a beautiful black wooden box inside, and she couldn't tell what it was. It feels heavy in the hand, and there is a cast iron piece embedded on the side, but it is mysterious dark blue.
A black box clasp.She stretched out her hand and opened it gently, only to hear the slapping sound of the iron pieces colliding with each other, which was extremely crisp, but in this quiet room, it felt a bit thrilling.
She took a deep breath to suppress the tension in her heart.
Putting her fingers on the side of the box, she gritted her teeth, and then told herself that her reaction speed should have been quite fast. After all, she was a vampire, so even if something happened, she should be able to deal with it.
After doing some psychological construction, she finally made up her mind.
After cursing Kalenza [-] times, Elizabeth opened the black box.
Nothing weird happened, no Pandora's box, no Aladdin's lamp, just a badge.
However, when she saw this badge, she felt that she was about to suffocate.
The gold-plated appearance has a faint golden luster, and has a touch of platinum. It is shaped like a V, with a coat of arms in the middle, and a small red gem on the top of the V.The whole coat of arms looks completely more elegant and charming than the coat of arms of some noble families.Even though Elizabeth is a person who doesn't know much about jewelry, she can see that this thing is worth a lot at this moment...
——+ Don't ask her why the first thing she notices is how much this thing can sell for.
In fact, our silly girl Elizabeth is a white and poor girl with no beauty!
On the panel that popped up, there was a blank space behind Elizabeth's name. She recognized it at a glance. This was clearly the place where the QQ membership nameplate used to be. Ever since SVIP appeared after VIP, Elizabeth remembered this thing It's very clear, every time you see a bunch of red names and nameplates in your friend list, you want to go crazy.
Qingben is a beautiful woman, but why is she so poor?
Click Yes, and the whole system starts to work immediately. In an instant, the family emblem disappeared, and then appeared behind Elizabeth's nickname, and it was highlighted.
For the first time, Elizabeth, who is a local turtle, knows that QQ can still play like this.
She subconsciously wanted to click OK, but she suddenly remembered—doesn't hate point be needed to activate the coat of arms system?
When the cursor moved over a few words, a number immediately appeared.
=_= Sure enough, I knew that it is impossible for this thing not to consume hatred.
Elizabeth was really about to be spoiled by the game, because the system popped up a prompt again. ,
Grass mud horse! ! !
Can't be friends anymore! ! !Elizabeth is going crazy, okay? ! !
What does throwing in the recycle bin mean?Do you want to throw such an expensive coat of arms into the recycling bin like trash?Just kidding your whole family!
This system is absolutely cheating!
Don't click Yes?dream!
Wiping the blood and tears from her face, Elizabeth said yes heroically, and then saw that the number in the upper right corner of the light curtain became a single digit again, and almost knelt down.
It really doesn't matter how cheap you are.
In an instant, Elizabeth was once again reduced from a well-to-do living standard to a poor peasant.
This day is really impossible to live.
What is this scenario……
Before Elizabeth could react, the vampires who had received the notification from the system did.
In the coat of arms system, regardless of whether the passive user is a human or a vampire, as long as they have their own family's coat of arms, they can be inlaid behind their names.
At this time, everyone is actually just playing the stand-alone version of QQ, and can only contact Elizabeth, and Elizabeth is like a center, which can be connected to everyone individually.
After receiving the news, basically everyone couldn't help but try it, and then Elizabeth's side is like the master console of 10086. From her position, she can see everything at a glance.Everyone's coat of arms information clearly appears in their friends list.
She pulled out a group, and Karen and Aro were in the group of "fighting tigers up the mountain", while the vampires shaken last night were put in the group of "what to say".
A funny life is a life of playing tricks and being stupid.
The Volturi family is the closest to the royal family. It is called the royal family among the vampires. However, there are only a few core members, followed by guards, and then ordinary vampires, but they also have coats of arms. of.
Only the level of the coat of arms is different.
Elizabeth found that her coat of arms was pale gold, but among the people she contacted, the coat of arms of some vampires was silver-gray, which seemed to be a level lower.
It seems that even within the Volturi clan, there are levels.
In addition to the Volturi family, there are other families like the Safisis family, but the number of fragmented people is relatively small.
There are five vampires in the Volturi family, and the others are from other families, or wandering vampires.Now she doesn't know what mystery is hidden in it, so she can only explore slowly.
This QQ didn't say anything about playing a novice strategy!
Depressed, Elizabeth looked at her remaining 8 points of hatred, and she was just short of grabbing the ground with her head. Others used the shield emblem system, but she didn't have any income. Isn't this a fool?
She urgently needs to attract hatred. If the hatred is worth less, she will feel uneasy in her heart, just like having no money in her pocket.
At present, the best weapon to pull hatred is always talk.
This sentence can probably draw a little bit of hatred, right?
Elizabeth stroked her lips with her fingers and thought for a while.
It's just that until Mrs. Bennet below called the sisters to go out, Elizabeth did not receive any response. Regarding this question, it seemed that it suddenly disappeared.
Elizabeth was puzzled, so she could only follow the crowd into the car with a depressed and unlucky expression.
She didn't know that the honor and glory of the Volturi were already recognized by the entire vampire world. Even though she thought this sentence was very hateful, the actual effect was not as good as she expected.
Ha ha
Elizabeth suddenly shivered, why did this guy come again? ! !
Is the door of the mental hospital not closed? !Why does this kind of thing come out every day to gain a sense of presence? !
She decided to ignore it.
Because, I suddenly remembered that I used to claim that I was not a Volturi vampire, but now the Volturi coat of arms appeared.
In the carriage, Jane and Elizabeth were sitting face to face. Elizabeth was thinking about something, but she came up in a daze. On the surface, she was calm, but in fact her mind was muddled.
"Why are we suddenly going to visit Cheapside to visit uncle?" Catherine propped her chin and yawned in the carriage, not ladylike at all.
Elizabeth raised her head suddenly, "London's Cheapside Street?"
The aloof Elizabeth seldom interrupted, but she still interrupted Catherine, which made Catherine unable to react for a long time, but Lydia said carelessly from the side: "Sure, isn't uncle over there?"
One of Mrs. Bennet's brothers was doing business in London, and was said to be doing well.
This is a jeweler in Cheapside, London's jewel street.
"Wouldn't it be nice if mother would be generous enough to buy us lots of jewelry?"
Lydia also held her own small face. She was taller, but there was a kind of cuddling in this gesture.
Recently, Lydia has become a celebrity among the officers. Her childhood was quite nourishing and she could eat well. Now she speaks with a lot more confidence...but she just thinks too well.
The thoughts in Elizabeth's mind had nothing to do with these things at all. She was thinking that since she had already gone to London, she might as well go to Cross Street by the way. She began to have a somewhat irrepressible curiosity about Karen.
Was that white shadow back then Karen?
"Do you know Cross Street in London?" Elizabeth really didn't know where Cross Street was, so she could only ask.
Her relationship with these sisters was not very good, and she suddenly lowered her posture to ask them questions, which made them feel a little weird.
In fact, since Elizabeth knew that she could directly use QQ to get hatred, she summed up the benefits of using QQ to get hatred:
1 This brushing method is simpler and more convenient to operate than the three-dimensional brushing method;
2 The coverage area is wider, and one act of hatred can gain the hatred value of many people;
3Two-dimensional in the brush hatred, the person whose hatred value has been brushed by himself can't pick up his own vest. If he brushes you, he will brush you. How many people can find their own heads?So the concealment is very high.
QQ, born for crime, is the best choice for criminals.
thumbs up.
Therefore, Elizabeth naturally relaxed a little in the third dimension.After all, there is Mary who can easily max out her hatred.
Catherine answered, "I've never heard of a cross street in London. By the way, I heard that today, Lizzie, you received a gift from the city. I don't know what it is?"
It made Elizabeth a little uncomfortable to ask such an involved question so rashly.After all, her relationship with this family is still very weak, so Catherine suddenly asked, it might be very abrupt to Elizabeth, but Catherine herself would not feel it.
You can't tell them about the coat of arms, so Elizabeth smiled and said, "I'm also surprised. It's a box, but it's empty inside. I still don't know who gave me the empty box."
"Then you are looking for Cross Street because of this box?" Lydia asked unwillingly.
"Yes, the address on it is Cross Street, but...maybe it's a mysterious gift. I really don't know who sent it from where and what it's for."
Elizabeth spoke half-truth, but when she was talking to them, she opened the QQ browser, followed by the search engine, and entered London Cross Street.
been pitted.
Elizabeth thought she could find a map.
But what about the upgrade system?
Click to open it, and even the search engines are graded!
...Do you want the poor to live?
When she saw those two numbers, her eyes almost went dark and she fainted in the car.
Two hundred and five, even if you sell me, it's not worth two hundred and five hatred!Search a map Are you so vicious?
Elizabeth tried to hang herself.
upgrade?I would like to, but the value of hatred is not enough.
"So, where is Cross Street?" Elizabeth also imitated her two sisters and cupped her face. In fact, she was about to go crazy.
Where exactly is Cross Street?
I really want to strangle Karen by the neck, where did you hide Cross Street?
"Who knows, go to Cheapside and ask uncle."
Lydia said nonchalantly.
During their conversation, Jane and Mary didn't say a word.No one noticed this weird atmosphere.
Both Catherine and Lydia were very nervous people, but Elizabeth suddenly felt tormented.
If you don't do it, you won't die.
I originally said to ask my uncle London Cross Street, but I didn’t expect that the sisters had just entered the city, and they were clamoring to go shopping. Before, they always went shopping in Meryton. They were already playing wild. Mrs. Bennet could only let Let them go, and repeatedly told them to be careful.
Mrs. Bennet said to Elizabeth who was alone: "Lizzie, you can go shopping by yourself, and we can just meet here as usual."
Mrs. Bennet was very pleasant now and then.
Elizabeth didn't expect to be free like this. It was a surprise at all, but it was only limited to them near Cheapside. Elizabeth had no companions and could only wander around by herself.
This just fulfilled her wish, and she hadn't found the location of London Cross Street yet.
It's just that she never expected that when Elizabeth walked to the side of Cheapside Street, she would see the sign of Cross Street.
She suddenly froze, unable to react at all.
The thing I was looking for unexpectedly appeared in front of me at once, and before I broke through the iron shoes, it was already "obtained without any effort".
Jewelry Street is next to London Cross Street, which makes Elizabeth feel unacceptable.
For a while, Elizabeth stayed here.
This is really a cross street. The intersection of the two streets is inserted obliquely. There are still a lot of gothic styles here. The big bell of the church in the distance can still be seen. The feathers seemed to be glowing in the sun.
Brick-red walls, high floors, but it seems that there are not many people. Occasionally, a few gentlemen pass by, but they don't look sideways, and they don't even look at Elizabeth when they pass by her.
This is a world that is different from other places.
She always felt that everyone who walked past her was different from ordinary people, or different from human beings. Elizabeth stood at the end of a cross street, waiting for others to pass by her.
"I don't know what the Pope is thinking, a bunch of stupid guys."
"We just have to keep creating heresy."
"You know, those priests are not as good as they used to be. The priests who have been promoted recently are all sloppy bags."
"Yes. By the way, what is the name of the Jewish merchant from Frankfurt?"
"Nathan, Nathan Rothschild."
"Oh, look, here he comes."
……
All the sounds here are very clear, she can hear them, but they seem to have passed through her mind, and they disappeared completely, and she doesn't remember anything. When she saw where she was, she had already returned after god.
The whole street continues the beauty of London's foggy city, and the brick-red walls look extraordinarily beautiful when the fog rises.
In front of her is a small shop that is incompatible with the surrounding Gothic architectural remnants, and the log sign on it is "Sophie's Box House".
Box, this is a key word, Elizabeth is almost sure that her destination is here.
But she looked back, and she...should have walked over there before, right?
Taking a deep breath, Elizabeth pushed open the small wooden door of the box house, which was full of a simple and mysterious taste.
"Hi, welcome to Sophie's box house, what can I do for you?"
Sitting behind the counter, reading a book with a cup of coffee, it is not a bearded man or a wine nose, on the contrary, this man is handsome, with a pale face surrounded by platinum blond hair, Such a complexion gave Elizabeth a particularly unspeakable sense of familiarity.
Karen's gaze finally shifted from his book to Elizabeth's face. Naturally, he knew that the person in front of him was Elizabeth, so he stood up from behind the counter and poured her a cup of coffee.
"My dear lady, are you satisfied with the gift from Cross Street?"
Is this a post-sale survey?
Elizabeth remembered that he was indeed the man who appeared by the grove outside her window, and judging from the signature of the letter, he must be Karen.Although she has communicated with Karen on QQ for a long time, now she has to pretend that she is new to this person, and her tone must be deceptive.
"Are you... Mr. Cullen?"
Karen looked up at her and smiled: "You are so smart that you guessed it was me right away."
"The address you left in the letter is the same as the place where the mail was signed. London Cross Street, I'm actually not smart, but the only person who can doubt it is you."
Elizabeth humbled herself a bit, but she almost scolded Karen bloody in her heart.
"So, what troubles do you encounter now?" Karen didn't mind the word "doubt" she used just now, but invited Elizabeth to sit at the small round wooden table by the window, and the two sat down facing each other, holding hands with coffee.
"That thing you sent me...what the hell is it?" Elizabeth was also a good hand at pretending to be confused.
As a newborn vampire, Elizabeth should never know these things. In fact, if there is no reminder from QQ, she would not know what is the family crest. Category inside.
"It's just a proof of being a Volturi vampire. There are many vampires in this family, but most of them are fringe members. There are only three core members, and then there are a few guards..."
Karen said casually. He clasped his hands together, then twirled the silver ring on his finger, as if he was thinking about something, and then added, "Because you were transformed by Aro, the leader of the Volturi. Yes, no matter what motive Elder Luo has, you are already a vampire with relatively noble blood in the clan."
The first embrace is very important, the purer the bloodline of the transformed vampire, the stronger the descendant will be.
"...Actually, I hate the world of vampires. This kind of completely strange thing makes me feel very frightened. I don't want to..."
There is no need to speak too clearly. Karen is a very smart person. He immediately understood Elizabeth's subtext, so he comforted him: "You don't have to worry, we will take care of Elder A Luo's matter later. As for your relationship in human society Time... As you know, vampires don't age, even if you choose to stay in the human world temporarily, you will eventually have to leave."
"I want to make myself fully prepared. No matter how clear my mind is, I still can't let myself give up. I also need to let myself know that I have nowhere to go."
That is to say, she will wait until there is really nothing to do before leaving here.
At this moment, Elizabeth's state of mind is well understood by Karen. Many years ago, he was a priest, but he was transformed into a vampire during the fight with a vampire, and he almost died at the hands of his companions.
Karen, who especially welcomes new companions, doesn't mind sharing his own experience at all. He told Elizabeth some of his previous things, just like an old friend who has known him for many years. Can't get nervous.
Gradually, Elizabeth finally relaxed completely.
She has communicated with Karen on QQ before, and she can generally understand how elegant this person is, but getting along in reality makes people more comfortable.Maybe this is the kind of modest gentleman that others say?
"The will to survive can often erupt with a power that we can't even imagine now." Karen said this, and then crossed his fingers together, as if thinking about something, he lowered his head, then raised his eyes, with unspeakable expressions Looking at her with dark eyes, "Actually, I felt that I was very despicable at that time."
He escaped from his former companions.
Elizabeth once spent a certain amount of hatred to view Karen's profile, so she had a strange understanding of what he said, "So this is why you chose to become a vegetarian vampire?"
"So you know." Karen covered his face with both hands, then put it down, with a smile on his face, "It seems that we will become companions."
"If I'm still alive by then." Elizabeth smiled, but it was very light.
"Thank you." Karen said, "It's been a long time since I've said so many words to an almost stranger."
"No, I should thank you. It's been a long time since I talked to others without burden."
Elizabeth thanked him in turn, and finally took a sip of the coffee that Karen made. Although she hadn't asked Karen why she changed from a doctor to the current owner of the box shop, that was not important anymore.
This is London Cross Street.
She stood up, nodded to Karen, and Karen escorted her to the door and went out.
Standing in the brick-red fog in London again, Elizabeth closed her eyes. Only when she experienced it herself could she understand this strange brick-red plot.
I once saw a famous painting. The London in the painting had brick-red fog. At that time, I still thought it was strange. How could there be red fog?But now that she knows, she will feel this way when she is in it.
The walls of the brick-red buildings can be dyed red by the fog of the whole city.
She opened her eyes, a puff of mist passed by her, but when she turned her head, she saw a man passing by her.
A very gentlemanly man, but with a bit of shrewdness in his eyebrows.
The people behind him were talking to him: "Mr. Rothschild, we haven't heard any intelligence a few days ago. We are not optimistic about the UK in the naval battle. Our partners are ready to help France and Spain. The UK is absolutely... You want……"
"Let's talk about the information when we get it."
This person interrupted the other party's babbling, his words were very brief, and there was a sense of decisiveness and killing.
Elizabeth suddenly knew the identity of the person she passed by.
Nason.Rothschild, the legend of the Rothschild family.I don't know if he sensed Elizabeth's gaze, but Nathan, who was about to open the trap door of "Sophie's Box House", suddenly stopped, and turned his head to look at Elizabeth.
She used to think that the hatred value was basically calculated as a whole 1, at least there should be no decimal point, but now she knows that the hatred value can be so accurate.
And for the vampires contacted by Elizabeth, this was indeed a night of refreshment.
The shocking power brought to them by such a magical thing as QQ is still unknown, but Elizabeth's hatred value can be said to be particularly well drawn.
There are probably more than 21 vampires in the whole of England. I don't know the exact number at all. After all, that's all I got out of the lottery. I don't know if there will be omissions.
Rothschild.
Elizabeth kept thinking about this name when she was washing, and always felt that she was dreaming, but pinching herself felt very painful.
"Lizzie, you still don't seem to be in good spirits."
Mr. Bennett sat filling his pipe after breakfast, looking at ease.
Elizabeth glanced at his mustache, and said casually: "Dear father, it may be because there are a lot of things recently. You are so smart and wise, you must know why I am not energetic."
She meant what she said, and Mr. Bennet rarely just smiled, but didn't speak.
Elizabeth knew it at a glance. Mr. Bennet must have known about the "deal" between Mrs. Bennet and Collins, but he did not object, which made Elizabeth suddenly depressed.
Although he didn't expect much from the family, Mr. Bennett was the only one who didn't have any hatred towards him.He is also like this now... Elizabeth is not lamenting him as a person, but lamenting the values of the entire era.
She always felt that if she walked out of this house, she would definitely develop in two extreme directions.
One is a mass of dead ashes, the other is magnificent waves.
It's a pity that the previous events were unpredictable, and she could only feel a slight sense of loss.
To put it bluntly, the hatred value is just a kind of disgust that others have towards you, and it is not necessarily true hatred. It is more of a joke. The generation of this kind of hatred value is quite normal.
There is no gold, and no one is perfect. Elizabeth herself dare not say that she has never had "hatred" towards others, nor can she say that her natural behavior has no hatred except for intentional hatred.There are too many things that offend others unintentionally. I'm afraid that if there is no systematic reminder, sometimes Elizabeth doesn't know that the hatred value can also be generated in this way.
"Sir, here is Elizabeth's package."
Mrs. Jenny knocked on the door and came in. She glanced at her strangely, and then put down her things and went out.
It was indeed a package, not the usual letter.
Elizabeth was stunned, and stopped Mrs. Jenny before she went out: "My package? Mrs. Jenny, did you make a mistake?"
"I'm not yet at that old age, Lizzie, and please trust my ability to judge handwriting. In fact, I'm sure it's a gentleman's handwriting. It's very strange..."
Mrs. Jenny did not forget to show her abilities.
After hearing this, Elizabeth subconsciously glanced at Mr. Bennett.
Mr. Bennet looked at her also with a strange look.
So Elizabeth lowered her head again and looked at the package in her hand. She looked at the address on it, but there was no signature. Suddenly, her pupils shrank and she almost didn't call out.
London, Cross Street.
The name was so familiar that Elizabeth no longer knew how to face the package, whether to open it in front of Mr. Bennett, or go back to her room to open it by herself.
She was really afraid of tearing something terrible... Karen was the one who left the message asking her to go to Cross Street in London for help, right?

Elizabeth was really not sure what was in the package.
"Probably the book I borrowed from a friend last time arrived. Father, I went up to unpack the package, and I'll have afternoon tea with you later."
She still looked polite, but she was a little anxious inside.
Mr. Bennet didn't see anything strange from her face anymore. The daughters were older and had their own secrets, so let her go.He tapped his pipe and said, "Just remember to get together with relatives. I think the relationship between you and the other sisters seems to be weakened. No matter how big the enmity is, it is still relatives."
I have to say that Mr. Bennett's insight...
Elizabeth buried her head, but the alpacas were running wildly in her heart. She didn't know what to say anymore. What Mr. Bennett said was indeed the truth, but after all, she was not from this family, and she couldn't feel any affection. It also takes time to adapt to the environment.
What's more, I have been trying my best to promote hatred, and I have a bad relationship with my sisters, is that normal?
It's just that the scope of her death must have exceeded Mr. Bennett's understanding, so there is no need for explanation.
When going upstairs, she saw Mary and the others coming down, and Jane passed her by without saying a word.
It's just that when she passed by Mary, she took a second look at herself.
But Catherine and Lydia still greeted Elizabeth ignorantly. After all, these two girls were a bit silly, often naive and confused.
Elizabeth was eager to know what was in it now, so she ignored the situation here and quickly returned to her room.
In fact, after several of her sisters went down, they heard that Elizabeth had received a package from a strange place, and they were very curious, suspecting that Elizabeth had hooked up with someone.
And only Elizabeth herself knew, where did she hook up with someone?This is clearly trouble.
She still remembers what Ah Ro said yesterday, and let herself go to get close to Karen.
Elizabeth felt that if Karen knew what she had done, it would probably be Karen instead of her crying in the toilet.
It was wrapped with a beautiful dark blue silk scarf. When Elizabeth touched the texture of this thing, she felt very familiar. It was silk. After opening it, there was a beautiful black wooden box inside, and she couldn't tell what it was. It feels heavy in the hand, and there is a cast iron piece embedded on the side, but it is mysterious dark blue.
A black box clasp.She stretched out her hand and opened it gently, only to hear the slapping sound of the iron pieces colliding with each other, which was extremely crisp, but in this quiet room, it felt a bit thrilling.
She took a deep breath to suppress the tension in her heart.
Putting her fingers on the side of the box, she gritted her teeth, and then told herself that her reaction speed should have been quite fast. After all, she was a vampire, so even if something happened, she should be able to deal with it.
After doing some psychological construction, she finally made up her mind.
After cursing Kalenza [-] times, Elizabeth opened the black box.
Nothing weird happened, no Pandora's box, no Aladdin's lamp, just a badge.
However, when she saw this badge, she felt that she was about to suffocate.
The gold-plated appearance has a faint golden luster, and has a touch of platinum. It is shaped like a V, with a coat of arms in the middle, and a small red gem on the top of the V.The whole coat of arms looks completely more elegant and charming than the coat of arms of some noble families.Even though Elizabeth is a person who doesn't know much about jewelry, she can see that this thing is worth a lot at this moment...
——+ Don't ask her why the first thing she notices is how much this thing can sell for.
In fact, our silly girl Elizabeth is a white and poor girl with no beauty!
On the panel that popped up, there was a blank space behind Elizabeth's name. She recognized it at a glance. This was clearly the place where the QQ membership nameplate used to be. Ever since SVIP appeared after VIP, Elizabeth remembered this thing It's very clear, every time you see a bunch of red names and nameplates in your friend list, you want to go crazy.
Qingben is a beautiful woman, but why is she so poor?
Click Yes, and the whole system starts to work immediately. In an instant, the family emblem disappeared, and then appeared behind Elizabeth's nickname, and it was highlighted.
For the first time, Elizabeth, who is a local turtle, knows that QQ can still play like this.
She subconsciously wanted to click OK, but she suddenly remembered—doesn't hate point be needed to activate the coat of arms system?
When the cursor moved over a few words, a number immediately appeared.
=_= Sure enough, I knew that it is impossible for this thing not to consume hatred.
Elizabeth was really about to be spoiled by the game, because the system popped up a prompt again. ,
Grass mud horse! ! !
Can't be friends anymore! ! !Elizabeth is going crazy, okay? ! !
What does throwing in the recycle bin mean?Do you want to throw such an expensive coat of arms into the recycling bin like trash?Just kidding your whole family!
This system is absolutely cheating!
Don't click Yes?dream!
Wiping the blood and tears from her face, Elizabeth said yes heroically, and then saw that the number in the upper right corner of the light curtain became a single digit again, and almost knelt down.
It really doesn't matter how cheap you are.
In an instant, Elizabeth was once again reduced from a well-to-do living standard to a poor peasant.
This day is really impossible to live.
What is this scenario……
Before Elizabeth could react, the vampires who had received the notification from the system did.
In the coat of arms system, regardless of whether the passive user is a human or a vampire, as long as they have their own family's coat of arms, they can be inlaid behind their names.
At this time, everyone is actually just playing the stand-alone version of QQ, and can only contact Elizabeth, and Elizabeth is like a center, which can be connected to everyone individually.
After receiving the news, basically everyone couldn't help but try it, and then Elizabeth's side is like the master console of 10086. From her position, she can see everything at a glance.Everyone's coat of arms information clearly appears in their friends list.
She pulled out a group, and Karen and Aro were in the group of "fighting tigers up the mountain", while the vampires shaken last night were put in the group of "what to say".
A funny life is a life of playing tricks and being stupid.
The Volturi family is the closest to the royal family. It is called the royal family among the vampires. However, there are only a few core members, followed by guards, and then ordinary vampires, but they also have coats of arms. of.
Only the level of the coat of arms is different.
Elizabeth found that her coat of arms was pale gold, but among the people she contacted, the coat of arms of some vampires was silver-gray, which seemed to be a level lower.
It seems that even within the Volturi clan, there are levels.
In addition to the Volturi family, there are other families like the Safisis family, but the number of fragmented people is relatively small.
There are five vampires in the Volturi family, and the others are from other families, or wandering vampires.Now she doesn't know what mystery is hidden in it, so she can only explore slowly.
This QQ didn't say anything about playing a novice strategy!
Depressed, Elizabeth looked at her remaining 8 points of hatred, and she was just short of grabbing the ground with her head. Others used the shield emblem system, but she didn't have any income. Isn't this a fool?
She urgently needs to attract hatred. If the hatred is worth less, she will feel uneasy in her heart, just like having no money in her pocket.
At present, the best weapon to pull hatred is always talk.
This sentence can probably draw a little bit of hatred, right?
Elizabeth stroked her lips with her fingers and thought for a while.
It's just that until Mrs. Bennet below called the sisters to go out, Elizabeth did not receive any response. Regarding this question, it seemed that it suddenly disappeared.
Elizabeth was puzzled, so she could only follow the crowd into the car with a depressed and unlucky expression.
She didn't know that the honor and glory of the Volturi were already recognized by the entire vampire world. Even though she thought this sentence was very hateful, the actual effect was not as good as she expected.
Ha ha
Elizabeth suddenly shivered, why did this guy come again? ! !
Is the door of the mental hospital not closed? !Why does this kind of thing come out every day to gain a sense of presence? !
She decided to ignore it.
Because, I suddenly remembered that I used to claim that I was not a Volturi vampire, but now the Volturi coat of arms appeared.
In the carriage, Jane and Elizabeth were sitting face to face. Elizabeth was thinking about something, but she came up in a daze. On the surface, she was calm, but in fact her mind was muddled.
"Why are we suddenly going to visit Cheapside to visit uncle?" Catherine propped her chin and yawned in the carriage, not ladylike at all.
Elizabeth raised her head suddenly, "London's Cheapside Street?"
The aloof Elizabeth seldom interrupted, but she still interrupted Catherine, which made Catherine unable to react for a long time, but Lydia said carelessly from the side: "Sure, isn't uncle over there?"
One of Mrs. Bennet's brothers was doing business in London, and was said to be doing well.
This is a jeweler in Cheapside, London's jewel street.
"Wouldn't it be nice if mother would be generous enough to buy us lots of jewelry?"
Lydia also held her own small face. She was taller, but there was a kind of cuddling in this gesture.
Recently, Lydia has become a celebrity among the officers. Her childhood was quite nourishing and she could eat well. Now she speaks with a lot more confidence...but she just thinks too well.
The thoughts in Elizabeth's mind had nothing to do with these things at all. She was thinking that since she had already gone to London, she might as well go to Cross Street by the way. She began to have a somewhat irrepressible curiosity about Karen.
Was that white shadow back then Karen?
"Do you know Cross Street in London?" Elizabeth really didn't know where Cross Street was, so she could only ask.
Her relationship with these sisters was not very good, and she suddenly lowered her posture to ask them questions, which made them feel a little weird.
In fact, since Elizabeth knew that she could directly use QQ to get hatred, she summed up the benefits of using QQ to get hatred:
1 This brushing method is simpler and more convenient to operate than the three-dimensional brushing method;
2 The coverage area is wider, and one act of hatred can gain the hatred value of many people;
3Two-dimensional in the brush hatred, the person whose hatred value has been brushed by himself can't pick up his own vest. If he brushes you, he will brush you. How many people can find their own heads?So the concealment is very high.
QQ, born for crime, is the best choice for criminals.
thumbs up.
Therefore, Elizabeth naturally relaxed a little in the third dimension.After all, there is Mary who can easily max out her hatred.
Catherine answered, "I've never heard of a cross street in London. By the way, I heard that today, Lizzie, you received a gift from the city. I don't know what it is?"
It made Elizabeth a little uncomfortable to ask such an involved question so rashly.After all, her relationship with this family is still very weak, so Catherine suddenly asked, it might be very abrupt to Elizabeth, but Catherine herself would not feel it.
You can't tell them about the coat of arms, so Elizabeth smiled and said, "I'm also surprised. It's a box, but it's empty inside. I still don't know who gave me the empty box."
"Then you are looking for Cross Street because of this box?" Lydia asked unwillingly.
"Yes, the address on it is Cross Street, but...maybe it's a mysterious gift. I really don't know who sent it from where and what it's for."
Elizabeth spoke half-truth, but when she was talking to them, she opened the QQ browser, followed by the search engine, and entered London Cross Street.
been pitted.
Elizabeth thought she could find a map.
But what about the upgrade system?
Click to open it, and even the search engines are graded!
...Do you want the poor to live?
When she saw those two numbers, her eyes almost went dark and she fainted in the car.
Two hundred and five, even if you sell me, it's not worth two hundred and five hatred!Search a map Are you so vicious?
Elizabeth tried to hang herself.
upgrade?I would like to, but the value of hatred is not enough.
"So, where is Cross Street?" Elizabeth also imitated her two sisters and cupped her face. In fact, she was about to go crazy.
Where exactly is Cross Street?
I really want to strangle Karen by the neck, where did you hide Cross Street?
"Who knows, go to Cheapside and ask uncle."
Lydia said nonchalantly.
During their conversation, Jane and Mary didn't say a word.No one noticed this weird atmosphere.
Both Catherine and Lydia were very nervous people, but Elizabeth suddenly felt tormented.
If you don't do it, you won't die.
I originally said to ask my uncle London Cross Street, but I didn’t expect that the sisters had just entered the city, and they were clamoring to go shopping. Before, they always went shopping in Meryton. They were already playing wild. Mrs. Bennet could only let Let them go, and repeatedly told them to be careful.
Mrs. Bennet said to Elizabeth who was alone: "Lizzie, you can go shopping by yourself, and we can just meet here as usual."
Mrs. Bennet was very pleasant now and then.
Elizabeth didn't expect to be free like this. It was a surprise at all, but it was only limited to them near Cheapside. Elizabeth had no companions and could only wander around by herself.
This just fulfilled her wish, and she hadn't found the location of London Cross Street yet.
It's just that she never expected that when Elizabeth walked to the side of Cheapside Street, she would see the sign of Cross Street.
She suddenly froze, unable to react at all.
The thing I was looking for unexpectedly appeared in front of me at once, and before I broke through the iron shoes, it was already "obtained without any effort".
Jewelry Street is next to London Cross Street, which makes Elizabeth feel unacceptable.
For a while, Elizabeth stayed here.
This is really a cross street. The intersection of the two streets is inserted obliquely. There are still a lot of gothic styles here. The big bell of the church in the distance can still be seen. The feathers seemed to be glowing in the sun.
Brick-red walls, high floors, but it seems that there are not many people. Occasionally, a few gentlemen pass by, but they don't look sideways, and they don't even look at Elizabeth when they pass by her.
This is a world that is different from other places.
She always felt that everyone who walked past her was different from ordinary people, or different from human beings. Elizabeth stood at the end of a cross street, waiting for others to pass by her.
"I don't know what the Pope is thinking, a bunch of stupid guys."
"We just have to keep creating heresy."
"You know, those priests are not as good as they used to be. The priests who have been promoted recently are all sloppy bags."
"Yes. By the way, what is the name of the Jewish merchant from Frankfurt?"
"Nathan, Nathan Rothschild."
"Oh, look, here he comes."
……
All the sounds here are very clear, she can hear them, but they seem to have passed through her mind, and they disappeared completely, and she doesn't remember anything. When she saw where she was, she had already returned after god.
The whole street continues the beauty of London's foggy city, and the brick-red walls look extraordinarily beautiful when the fog rises.
In front of her is a small shop that is incompatible with the surrounding Gothic architectural remnants, and the log sign on it is "Sophie's Box House".
Box, this is a key word, Elizabeth is almost sure that her destination is here.
But she looked back, and she...should have walked over there before, right?
Taking a deep breath, Elizabeth pushed open the small wooden door of the box house, which was full of a simple and mysterious taste.
"Hi, welcome to Sophie's box house, what can I do for you?"
Sitting behind the counter, reading a book with a cup of coffee, it is not a bearded man or a wine nose, on the contrary, this man is handsome, with a pale face surrounded by platinum blond hair, Such a complexion gave Elizabeth a particularly unspeakable sense of familiarity.
Karen's gaze finally shifted from his book to Elizabeth's face. Naturally, he knew that the person in front of him was Elizabeth, so he stood up from behind the counter and poured her a cup of coffee.
"My dear lady, are you satisfied with the gift from Cross Street?"
Is this a post-sale survey?
Elizabeth remembered that he was indeed the man who appeared by the grove outside her window, and judging from the signature of the letter, he must be Karen.Although she has communicated with Karen on QQ for a long time, now she has to pretend that she is new to this person, and her tone must be deceptive.
"Are you... Mr. Cullen?"
Karen looked up at her and smiled: "You are so smart that you guessed it was me right away."
"The address you left in the letter is the same as the place where the mail was signed. London Cross Street, I'm actually not smart, but the only person who can doubt it is you."
Elizabeth humbled herself a bit, but she almost scolded Karen bloody in her heart.
"So, what troubles do you encounter now?" Karen didn't mind the word "doubt" she used just now, but invited Elizabeth to sit at the small round wooden table by the window, and the two sat down facing each other, holding hands with coffee.
"That thing you sent me...what the hell is it?" Elizabeth was also a good hand at pretending to be confused.
As a newborn vampire, Elizabeth should never know these things. In fact, if there is no reminder from QQ, she would not know what is the family crest. Category inside.
"It's just a proof of being a Volturi vampire. There are many vampires in this family, but most of them are fringe members. There are only three core members, and then there are a few guards..."
Karen said casually. He clasped his hands together, then twirled the silver ring on his finger, as if he was thinking about something, and then added, "Because you were transformed by Aro, the leader of the Volturi. Yes, no matter what motive Elder Luo has, you are already a vampire with relatively noble blood in the clan."
The first embrace is very important, the purer the bloodline of the transformed vampire, the stronger the descendant will be.
"...Actually, I hate the world of vampires. This kind of completely strange thing makes me feel very frightened. I don't want to..."
There is no need to speak too clearly. Karen is a very smart person. He immediately understood Elizabeth's subtext, so he comforted him: "You don't have to worry, we will take care of Elder A Luo's matter later. As for your relationship in human society Time... As you know, vampires don't age, even if you choose to stay in the human world temporarily, you will eventually have to leave."
"I want to make myself fully prepared. No matter how clear my mind is, I still can't let myself give up. I also need to let myself know that I have nowhere to go."
That is to say, she will wait until there is really nothing to do before leaving here.
At this moment, Elizabeth's state of mind is well understood by Karen. Many years ago, he was a priest, but he was transformed into a vampire during the fight with a vampire, and he almost died at the hands of his companions.
Karen, who especially welcomes new companions, doesn't mind sharing his own experience at all. He told Elizabeth some of his previous things, just like an old friend who has known him for many years. Can't get nervous.
Gradually, Elizabeth finally relaxed completely.
She has communicated with Karen on QQ before, and she can generally understand how elegant this person is, but getting along in reality makes people more comfortable.Maybe this is the kind of modest gentleman that others say?
"The will to survive can often erupt with a power that we can't even imagine now." Karen said this, and then crossed his fingers together, as if thinking about something, he lowered his head, then raised his eyes, with unspeakable expressions Looking at her with dark eyes, "Actually, I felt that I was very despicable at that time."
He escaped from his former companions.
Elizabeth once spent a certain amount of hatred to view Karen's profile, so she had a strange understanding of what he said, "So this is why you chose to become a vegetarian vampire?"
"So you know." Karen covered his face with both hands, then put it down, with a smile on his face, "It seems that we will become companions."
"If I'm still alive by then." Elizabeth smiled, but it was very light.
"Thank you." Karen said, "It's been a long time since I've said so many words to an almost stranger."
"No, I should thank you. It's been a long time since I talked to others without burden."
Elizabeth thanked him in turn, and finally took a sip of the coffee that Karen made. Although she hadn't asked Karen why she changed from a doctor to the current owner of the box shop, that was not important anymore.
This is London Cross Street.
She stood up, nodded to Karen, and Karen escorted her to the door and went out.
Standing in the brick-red fog in London again, Elizabeth closed her eyes. Only when she experienced it herself could she understand this strange brick-red plot.
I once saw a famous painting. The London in the painting had brick-red fog. At that time, I still thought it was strange. How could there be red fog?But now that she knows, she will feel this way when she is in it.
The walls of the brick-red buildings can be dyed red by the fog of the whole city.
She opened her eyes, a puff of mist passed by her, but when she turned her head, she saw a man passing by her.
A very gentlemanly man, but with a bit of shrewdness in his eyebrows.
The people behind him were talking to him: "Mr. Rothschild, we haven't heard any intelligence a few days ago. We are not optimistic about the UK in the naval battle. Our partners are ready to help France and Spain. The UK is absolutely... You want……"
"Let's talk about the information when we get it."
This person interrupted the other party's babbling, his words were very brief, and there was a sense of decisiveness and killing.
Elizabeth suddenly knew the identity of the person she passed by.
Nason.Rothschild, the legend of the Rothschild family.I don't know if he sensed Elizabeth's gaze, but Nathan, who was about to open the trap door of "Sophie's Box House", suddenly stopped, and turned his head to look at Elizabeth.
