Desire on the other side of blood

Back at Moniranka Hall, April was standing in the corridor looking at something, when she saw me coming in, she pretended to glance at me casually, and then exclaimed, "Oh my god, what happened to your face? "

I touched my face, and the wound has begun to heal slowly.

"It's nothing, it's just a small wound, and it's healed." I smiled at her, and took out a handkerchief to wipe off the blood on my face.

"Have you offended Her Highness Sabrina?" Ai Puli frowned, "Her Highness Sabrina is the most elegant woman I have ever seen after Miss Lilith, she can't do this."

"Really?" I said flatly, putting the handkerchief in my pocket, "Probably so."

Ai Puli bit her lip and looked at me for a moment, but didn't speak.

Thinking of what Sabrina said just now, I asked again: "Where is Miss Lilith?"

It took a while for April to reply, "Miss Lilith is not in Hermons now, I don't know where she went, and she won't be back until a month later."

After hesitating for a while, I said, "What about His Majesty Fei Lian?"

She thought she would be ridiculed by Ai Puli, but she just paused for a while and said, "His Majesty Philian should be in a meeting at this time."

At the end, she gave me another wary look, "What do you want to do?"

"It's nothing." I turned my gaze to the statue outside the temple, "I just want to tell him, don't give me those things anymore, it doesn't mean anything to me anymore."

Ai Puli followed my line of sight and looked outside the hall, lowered her head, and stopped talking.

After meeting Sabrina that day, I once again shut myself in the palace of Monilanka and did not go out.Every morning, the small gifts on the pillow are still the same, and even more and more as if I was angry. Finally, the drawer at the head of the bed couldn’t fit, so I simply threw all those things under the bed, and I will never go to the second place again. Eye.

After Ai Puli found out, she took the initiative to take a big box to pack those things for me.I put the box in a corner of the room, and the first thing I do when I wake up every morning is to throw the things next to my pillow into the box like a ball.Finally one day, I found a necklace under my pillow.

It was a houndstooth necklace.The silver chain and the fang pendant engraved with fine patterns have a slight trace of time.

After hesitating again and again, I still put it in my pocket.Later, when I was in a daze, my hands would often be placed on the necklace involuntarily.

Time passed quietly, and before I knew it, another half month passed.

The uneasiness of coming here at the beginning has gradually disappeared, and the days are incredibly peaceful.

Moniranka Hall is so big that you can't even see the other end of the corridor.The entire palace is also divided into two parts, the main hall and the side hall. The main hall has 72 seats on the fourth floor, and the side hall has 57 seats on the third floor.Each room in each building is different and has its own characteristics.When I have nothing to do, I will walk around the entire hall. Sometimes I forget the time, and Ai Puli will suddenly appear and lead me back with a bang.

Ai Puli pretends to be fierce on the surface, but she is actually a good girl with a kind heart. She always tries to talk to me, although her tone is often very aggressive.

"Hey, Chris, where are you going?" Seeing me walking out the door, she immediately walked over pushing the cart.

"Just walking around." I walked up the escalator, stopped, and looked at Aprily who was looking up at me, "Is there something wrong?"

"Uh..." She hesitated for a moment, turned around and looked outside the hall, then looked at the clock hanging on the wall, and sighed dejectedly, "It's okay, you can go."

"Okay." I said, but didn't move.

"But..." She really spoke again, with her hands on her hips habitually, "Pay attention to the time, otherwise don't expect me to come to you, you will be hungry!"

I nodded to her with a smile and walked upstairs.

I was still wandering around aimlessly, but this time I made an unexpected discovery.

I found a door at block 63 on the fourth floor.The door was tightly locked, and the door was carved with a pattern of entangled rose branches and leaves, decorated with gold thread patterns.There are clusters of roses clustered towards the center, and a large golden lock hangs in the middle. The keyhole is a little different from ordinary locks, as if...

I took out the houndstooth necklace by accident, and tried inserting the pendant into the keyhole. With a "click", the lock opened.

The door opens.It was a studio.

The walls are densely covered with many figure paintings, and the floor is also covered with easels, all covered with white cloth.I tore off the white cloth from the front easel. It was also a figure painting, but it was not finished yet.The young man in the painting is leaning against the window, with his chin resting on one hand, his long golden hair hidden in the afterglow of the setting sun.Although it was just a profile, one could vaguely see that he was smiling.

I shook my head, and pulled away several pieces of cloth in disbelief.Those paintings, including the ones on the wall, have different poses and costumes, and some of them have faded due to age, but they all depict the same person.

I took a few steps back, smiled bitterly, and covered my eyes with one hand.

Those paintings, whether standing, sitting or lying down, happy or sad, the characters in them are all me.

I looked at the necklace in my hand, then at the white scar on my palm, and then gradually felt suffocated.

The white scars that cannot disappear are like sins that will never disappear.

A rose that has withered cannot regain its fragrance.

Putting the necklace together on an easel with my palms together, I turned to leave.

Not interested in going any further, I walked back downstairs. Ai Puli was still standing there, but with a black cloak in her hand.

Seeing me, she seemed surprised, then she gave me an annoyed look, "Why did you come back so late?"

"what happened?"

"Your Majesty came down just now, he..." Ai Puli suddenly stopped, "Forget it, it doesn't matter if you didn't see him, take it." She stuffed the cloak into my hand.

"Your Majesty said, if you want to go out for a stroll, go, don't stay here all the time, but you can't let others see your face." After saying this, she pushed her baby cart away.

I looked at the cloak in my hand and stood there for a long time.

I've always known that Philion isn't a king who rests on his laurels, so I wasn't surprised to see how much Hermons has changed again from 50-odd years ago.

I'm standing on Kress Street right now, surrounded by people coming and going.The ladies walked past me slowly, holding the arms of the men.

The Wensley store is still there, but the place that originally belonged to Lao Gamen has now been replaced by a young man.I stood at the door for a while, and the young man immediately came out to greet me, and I quickly bowed my head and left.When passing by Victor Cake Shop, I was caught off guard by a pair of men and women coming out of it, and the cloak and hat fell off.

"You, you are..." The man was shocked when he saw my face.

"Sorry!" I put on my hat, turned and walked away quickly.

Before he took a few steps, he heard a female voice behind him.

"Kaylo! You are Kailo!" Footsteps sounded, and someone trotted to catch up.

I stopped.

"Kaylo! I finally see you again!" The man ran up to me and said happily.

"Yes." I raised my head, looked at the familiar but somewhat unfamiliar face, and smiled, "I haven't seen you for more than 100 years, Veronica."

"Great, you still remember me!" Veranika was even happier.She was holding a large paper bag with many loaves of bread and milk in it.

She called the man just now, and after introducing him, she realized that it was her husband.

"I didn't expect you to be married. I'm so happy for you." I said with a smile.

Since we hadn't seen each other for a long time, Veronica gave everything to her husband, drove him home, and then dragged me to chat for a long time.

All she knew about me was what she had read in the papers, but she had always been skeptical about what happened in war and peace.

"Carlo, I know, you're not that kind of person." She said with certainty.

"It's been a long time since that happened, and I don't want to bring it up again."

"I used to admire Her Royal Highness Sabrina, but after she married His Majesty Filian, I found that she was not so good." Veranika suddenly grabbed my hand tightly, "Carol, you and Her Majesty Your Majesty Felian really..."

I smiled lightly, and pulled out my hand, "I don't want to dwell on the past, Veronica."

"Okay then." Veronica sighed, her eyes turned red again.Although so many years have passed, she seems to have matured a lot, but her crying problem has not changed.

"Carol, I hope you are happy too," she said.
