Dragon and knight Ji gl

When Lev got up, she took the knife leaning against the wall and clenched it behind her back.

The faces of the servants became more and more menacing, as if they would kill them immediately if they did not give an answer that satisfied them.

At this time, an explanation is bound to be given, but it seems that no matter what kind of explanation, it is full of various loopholes.Lev thinks for a moment, "These people met me and Natia Vida yesterday and? ? It seems like you don't remember seeing us yesterday and the day before yesterday."Seeing a male servant say something in the ear of the old steward, the latter put down the box in his hand, as if he was going to call his accomplices to help deal with her? The two of them, she? He squeezed the knife in his hand, and wanted to use it? stop before.

Natia Vida said: "We are the maids of Miss Alicia's house."

"Yes, they are my maids." Lance responded, but soon felt guilty. She, like Leif, was ready to kill the few in front of her before the situation escalated. A weirdo prepares to kill him.Although there is a risk of alarming the enemy, the three of them are here—especially? There is a holy spell master among them—to deal with the five minions in front of them, and they want to solve them before the wind leaks. Ninety-nine out of ten.

She exchanged glances with Leif, and the heads had already been divided, and she was only waiting for a signal to make a move, but Natia Vida seemed to want to redeem it.

Leif narrowly stopped the knife that was about to swing.

She felt that Natia Vida's explanation could not be called an explanation at all, even though these servants would forget about people as soon as they turned their faces, but last night when they came to welcome "Alicia", all the servants were present She? No matter who she brought over, it was under the watchful eyes of everyone, and there was no room for addition or subtraction.Even if the five people here are not sure whether "Alicia" has brought someone to marry, seeing the posture in this room, they should know that the relationship between them and Lance is not a master-servant relationship—how ​​can there be? The reason why the servant sleeps on the bed while the master sleeps on the floor?

"It turned out to be Madam's maid. Let's help Madam change her clothes." The old steward unexpectedly quickly accepted Natia Vida's explanation, "You two should be used to this."

Leff soon discovered that the reason why the manservant put down the box just now was not to inform his accomplices, but just to take out a necklace inlaid with rubies from the box.

After putting down the things in their hands, all five of them went out.

Natia Vida said: "These five people are really weird, don't you think?"

"Weird." Leff knew that the magic dragon's ability to deceive people was very strong.Because I have heard and believed a lot of Natia Vida's nonsense, so I feel that even if one day Natia Vida wants to convey the point of view of "the sun rises from the west", as long as she thinks, everyone will believe it.

"It's really weird." Lance identified Natia Vida as the Holy Curse Master.For this rare and mysterious profession, it has been exaggerated to the point of being omnipotent in the rumors. No matter how absurd things happen in front of you, as long as you contact the Holy Curse Master, it will not be absurd.

"The 'weird' you are talking about is completely different from the 'weird' I'm talking about." Natia Vida looked at the expressions of admiration and fear in the eyes of the two, and looked at the two. People's thinking is clear, "It needs to be explained that I have not done any manipulation of their thinking and behavior."

"In other words, they really believed that we were Alicia's maids?" Leif quickly realized, "Even if I said this, Lance said it, or Anyone who breaks in here out of nowhere."

"What do you mean?" Lance was a little confused.

"Then pick up what's left of last night. There's a constant cycle going on in this castle, and these valets they? ...I mean, they don't have free will to think, decide, judge, choose, they don't have a soul, but are just puppets." Natia Vida took a breath, "Yes , they are just puppets, puppets used to achieve the cycle, and their job is to keep the cycle largely unchanged, and never be affected by insignificant details."

"This... I seem to understand, but I don't seem to understand." Lance scratched his head, "Ah, the insignificant details mean that although they asked me to sew clothes, it doesn't matter if I don't sew Is it important? Why am I still so worried?"

"It's like every manservant says the same thing to someone who goes into the Dan Sai Desert, 'You have two daughters. The older one is brutal and the younger one is gentle. The wild one is Sabrina and the gentle one is Sabrina. Alicia. Their home is the Leander family.' This passage is extremely abrupt, even to a person who is not yet married, they still insist on saying this. This is a manifestation of lack of agency. "Leif had more or less similar thoughts to what Natia Vida said at the moment, but when the thoughts arose, there was not enough evidence." This also explains why we can encounter the same situation at the same time. A group of people. Everyone is unique, but puppets are just tools, and you can make as many tools as you want. But those tools are also made too realistic."

"Miss Knight really connects with me. Not only that, this puppet-making program will also treat us as one of the raw materials for manufacturing." Natia Vida said, "When we become part of this cycle In one section, the protagonists of this cycle—that is, Alicia and Sabrina—will become more in line with their identities, but as insignificant participants in this cycle, they will not It's going to change. When Lance you were the main character, Leif and? I were considered trivial details, so they were ignored by them."

"At this point, that seems to be the only explanation," Leif said.

"Important people will change their appearance, and unimportant people will maintain their original appearance." Lance pondered for a while before he realized that he came over, "If this is the case, as long as I go out through the door at night, I don't need it? Becoming Alicia?"

The old steward knocked on the door, urging him to dress up quickly.

Leif pushed the little Lance girl in front of the mirror: "The first thing to do is, you should play the bride first. Maybe that guy named Dansey can really kill Mr. Leander, so you don't have to wait until the night? You can change back .”

"Then I hope so." Lance didn't move, holding back his embarrassment, and let Leif and Natia Vida change her clothes.

--

Leif and Natia Vida did not have the opportunity to watch Mr. Leander's wedding, because they were quickly sent to the kitchen by the steward, and were responsible for arranging all kinds of dishes to be used in the wedding banquet. Go round and round.

Far away in the desert, there are no guests at all; but the banquet prepared by the Leander's family is enough to invite even 1000 people.

"I sometimes think," Lev picked up a sizzling hoof, "Since people are fake, are these foods real?"

"It's better not to think about some things. Miss Knight, you also ate barbecue yesterday, and it was delicious." Natia Vida said, "I'm afraid it's hard to swallow if you think about it randomly while eating. Maybe these foods are made of strange things, like stones, skeletons, sand, row..."

Every time Natia Vida mentioned a possible raw material, Leif's face turned green for a few minutes: "Stop talking, I want to understand now, this is a cow's hoof..."

After a while, it was time for the wedding between Alicia and Mr. Leander.

The assassination arranged by Dan Sai happened shortly after the wedding ceremony.

Leif originally wanted to watch the ceremony, but the old steward watched her? As soon as she was about to leave, she stopped her.

Leif asked, "We're here with Madam, can't we even go outside and have a look?"

"I thought you already knew." The old steward said, "It was Madam who asked you to work in the kitchen. She said that the habits at home were different from here, and she was afraid that you would bump into people when you went out, so I couldn't let you Get out of here."

Leif said, "Is it okay to just go and see?"

"No, this is Madam's order." The old butler then said to dozens of male servants who were working nearby, "Take care of these two people and let them go out after the wedding."

If it hadn't been for Leff who had seen with his own eyes how rude the servants of this family were to "Alicia", and just listened to the words of the old steward, he would have thought that the so-called "Madame" was right in this family.

"It seems that Lance really listened and went in. He gave an irrelevant order to the old steward, and he didn't have any reason not to obey it." Natia Vida said, "But I don't know why he did it. "

"Master Natia Vida, there's still something you don't know?" Leif said.

"You think of me as an all-rounder, Miss Knight. Any creature has limitations, even the dragon is no exception. I have already told you." Natia Vida said, "I can only Let me tell you something. After my calculations, no matter what Lance does today, it will not change the overall situation for his personal fate or this mission. So you don't need to worry too much. "

"Since you've said that, it seems that Lance put us here for some important reason." Leff said, "Could it be because of embarrassment? I've already agreed to it? He? Talk about becoming a woman, even if you watch one more wedding, it won't increase the conversation..."

The preparations for the food and drink have been completed, and the old steward ordered to distribute a portion of food to each of the servants. Although there is no wine, the richness is no less than that prepared for the guests—the non-existent guests— of.

The male servants cheered, put down their work, and began to munch.

Laif and Natia Vida stood together on the edge of a small round table to eat, and after a few mouthfuls, there was commotion in the hall.

"Master, master was stabbed..." A male servant stumbled and ran from a distance, with blood on his hands.

The old steward was using a long and slender spoon to taste a sweet soup that was about to be served at the end. Hearing this, he turned around and the spoon fell to the bottom of the pot, making a "clang" sound, and rushed to pick it up. The man Looking at the servant's collar, he asked, "What happened? Can you say it again?"

"I said Master...Master..." The male servant was so frightened that his legs became limp, and the more nervous he became, the more he couldn't speak, but the old steward was still shaking him by the collar He said, with great difficulty, he managed to choke out the following words, "Master was stabbed... with a knife, the knife was stuck in the abdomen, just a little away from the heart...a lot of blood...a lot of blood..."

In fact, seeing the bloodstains on the servant's body, the rest of the people can also estimate Mr. Leander's injury.

After such an accident happened, the originally well-organized large kitchen was immediately turned upside down.

The old steward left the manservant and hurried to the hall.Some of the male servants followed the old man in charge, while most of them stayed where they were, spinning around anxiously.

The blood-stained servant was surrounded by the rest of the servants in the kitchen, and they kept asking him for details.It is clear that there are only a few dozen steps to go to the hall, seeing is believing, but they are unwilling to see it with their own eyes, instead they are obsessed with extracting details from the mouth of the only bystander here.

The valet was forced to repeat the same words several times, but the next time someone took the trouble to ask the same question.

Once the valet's description changed slightly, the rest of the valet's prediction of Mr. Leander's fate changed dramatically.

After a while, someone said: "It seems that Mr. Leander is really dead."

After a while, someone said: "This kind of injury can't kill anyone."

This scene looks utterly ridiculous.

Obviously, everyone has a different attitude towards Mr. Leander. There are worship, admiration, fear, and disgust. I don't know which one has the upper hand.Leif couldn't tell which of these people wanted Mr. Leander killed and which wanted him? All right.

At this time, naturally no one would pay attention to the two maids brought by the hostess - after today's incident, it is not certain whether the hostess can still be the hostess.

While everyone was in a panic, Leff wiped his hands on the apron, then took off the apron, followed Natia Vida, and walked towards the wedding hall.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he stepped out of the door, he heard a new question asked by the servant: "Who was the assassin?"

This question was supposed to be one of the first to be asked, but it seemed like nobody was even a little bit curious about the answer at first.

Another manservant said, "You don't need to ask, it's naturally Dan Sai." According to the attitude of most of the manservants who stayed here, they seemed to know the identity of the murderer.

Leif heard the news from Lance last night, and naturally knew that the assassin was Dan Sai, but it stands to reason that Dan Sai told his favorite Alicia about such a secret plan, and he definitely didn't say it casually. The possibility of talking, do these servants also know?

Maybe Dan Sai's performance is too obvious in normal times, or maybe...they? They already knew Dan Sai's plan.

"Wrong, you guessed wrong." The manservant who was tortured by the question said, "It was indeed Danse who started the attack, but it was the bride who stabbed the dagger into Mr. Leander's body." .”

Natia Vida said: "It seems that Lance is not being honest. The relationship between him? and Dan Sai is not just a few words. It turns out that he? Let us stay here for the convenience of doing things."

Then he came to the hall.

A wedding without guests seems both lively and deserted. Steaming food is placed on small tables one by one, exuding a mouth-watering smell, but the place behind the table where the guests should be sitting is not. It is empty.

In the center of the hall, Mr. Leander was lying on the ground, already unconscious. The blood soaked the navy blue carpet, showing a dark color.The old steward half-kneeled beside Mr. Leander's body, holding the latter's arm, crying out of breath: "My master, poor child, the cruel woman killed you just like that... ..."

Regardless of the attitude of the other servants towards Mr. Leander, the old steward seemed to be loyal to his master, and at this moment he was heartbroken for his master's misfortune.

Next to Leander's body, there is a drawn out sword. This is Mr. Leander's own sword. There are bloodstains on this sword, but it is not a murder weapon.

The young bride looked indifferent, holding a short knife in her hand - this is the murder weapon - wiped off the blood on it with a handkerchief, and then inserted it back into a plate of barbecue.This knife was originally used to cut barbecued meat.

Dan Sai was standing behind the bride, covering his right arm with his left hand, and blood was seeping from between his fingers.The wound on his arm was cut by Mr. Leander's saber. Originally, the assassination should have been declared a failure, but Mr. Leander had just dealt with an assassin, and when he turned around, there was nothing His defensive abdomen was stabbed by his own bride, so it was not Dan Sai who was lying on the ground now.

The old steward pointed at Lance and Dan Sai and yelled: "You shameless couple, you...you will definitely be punished...you will never escape your guilt..."

The few male servants who came in with the old steward exchanged a few glances with Dan Sai.Two of them tied up the old steward and stuffed his mouth with the cloth strips he had prepared.

The other leaned down to test Mr. Leander's breath, and then said to Dansey, "It's out of breath."

The knife that Dansai originally prepared had been thrown several tables away when Mr. Leander was chasing him. They picked up the sword on the ground and rushed forward, crazily toward Mr. Leander's. Dozens of holes were pierced in succession on the chest. The stabbing sounds of "poof" and "poof" continued until Mr. Leander's chest was turned into a puddle of rotten meat and broken bones, and then he stopped, panting and laughing: "Finally dead, you are finally dead... "

The male servants who were outside came into the hall one after another. Seeing Mr. Leander's tragic situation, most of them were happy, but when they came back to their senses, they were worried, as if they were afraid that Mr. Leander would suddenly Like standing up?

Although Dan Sai was only wearing the same clothes as the rest of the male servants at the moment, it was obvious that after the old butler was taken away, he became the real leader among the remaining male servants.He approached Lance as if claiming credit, and said, "My dear lady, Mr. Leander is finally dead, and no one can hinder us anymore..." As he spoke, he went to touch Lance's shoulder.

Lance took a few steps back in disgust: "If you dare to approach me again, I will make your death easier than that of Mr. Leander."

"How could I be willing to neglect you? If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't dare to take such a risk." Dan Sai's expression was quite hurt. He handed the sword in his hand to Lance, and said with sincerity, "If ? If you want me to die, stab me immediately."

Leif got goosebumps for a while, instead of looking at the nasty entanglement between Dan Sai and Lance, he looked at Mr. Leander's body, and always felt that this man should not just die so casually: " Is it a good thing or a bad thing if things develop like this?"

Natia Vida gave Dan Sai a sympathetic look, and said, "It's irrelevant."

"Mr. Leanderan's assassination, is this also an inevitable part of the cycle?" Leif felt confused all of a sudden, "If you say that Lance's actions this time didn't change the overall situation, then could it be that , could Dance have stabbed Mr Leander to death even if Lance wasn't involved?"

"No, although it has nothing to do with the overall situation, this should be a variable." Natia Vida said, "If Mr. Leander is destined to die, then Dan Sai should be behind the scenes. But this is impossible. Pay attention to Dan If he is behind the murders, the corpses brought back by Sabrina will not be what we saw."
