"So, are you sure there's a connection between this? incident and his?disappearance?" Lance said while overlapping? two pieces of cloth in his hand, using? the same color thread Stitching, "this? manservant, like Dan Sai, is also a nasty and disgusting? guy...he pretended to be? picking things up, but purposely pinched my? fingertips. However, this? There wasn't even half a woman at the time, so it's no wonder they are so rare."

Speaking of this, the little girl in Lance looked at Leif, and suddenly thought of a witticism, which can be used to laugh at her? She is not as attractive as a fake woman like her.But when he saw the face of Natia Vida who was sitting on the side - that face was full of nobility, holiness, solemnity and purity - he didn't dare to say anything.

Looking at Lance's hesitant expression, Leif urged, "What do you want to say, hurry up and continue."

"Well..." said Lance, "I mean, it doesn't do any harm if the footmen disappear. Wouldn't it be better to leave Mr. Leander alone after all?" Is it easier to deal with?"

Natia Vida suddenly participated in the discussion: "These puppet servants? Of course it doesn't matter whether they stay or not, but have they really disappeared? Why did they disappear? What will happen after they disappear? It is closely related to the safety of our "companions."

Leif asked, "What? What does that mean?"

Natia Vida: "The day before yesterday, you asked me these? Going out these nights, what did I get? But I was interrupted by the manservant who came? Sending flowers. I did it in? Night out? Something like the night when Lev and I came into your?

This time, Lance understood quickly. After thinking about it for a while, he clutched his stomach and laughed: "You mean, you mean...hahahaha...you mean they all became Girl...hahahaha...I'm so curious about their appearance..."

Natia Vida smiled and said, "They originally begged me just like you, not to reveal this matter."

"This? How can it be." Lance said without any empathy, "Interesting? Of course, more people should know about it... Hahaha..."

Natia Vida said: "Now we are in a hurry, we can't delay the task because we are afraid of being ridiculed. It is much safer for us to concentrate on the task than to separate it. However, they are playing the role of Alicia. There will be no danger in the short term when they belong to Alicia, but once they enter another time and space belonging to Alicia, they are the same as the 'manservants', they cannot talk to each other, so they will also encounter Seeing the same danger as the menservants here——judging from the current situation, any manservant who has had any contact with you will disappear the next day .”

Originally, Lance listened to Natia Vida's words, and nodded like cutting an onion after each sentence.However, upon hearing it, Natia Vida seems to be intending to let her companions enter the time and space where she is now, so that instead of being able to watch the excitement of other knights after they become girls, on the contrary Want to be the only one? Lively? Let others see, so I resisted: "Can't we find someone else? When Alicia, I can be a servant, and I am willing to take the risk."

Leif imagined that other knights would become Alicia.The body shape and hair are the main changes in the transformation, but the facial features and skin have not changed much.So in ?

"No," Leif blurted out, "Let someone else be Alicia, how can you be as beautiful as you." As soon as the words came out, I felt a little regretful.

Natia Vida smiled and patted her on the shoulder, which made the knight girl tremble.

"Humph. This, this? Needless to say..." The little Lance girl blushed, "But, it can't be such a hasty reason? Can it..."

Natia Vida gave an unscrupulous reason: "Lance, you are appointed to take on this important role because you are the most suitable person."

"Since the adults have said so." Lance felt a heavy responsibility on his shoulders, and slapped his chest, "Then I have a duty to do so."

Leif quickly changed the subject: "Lance, please recall again, is there anything else today? Is there anything else? The servant has had contact with you?"

"If the conditions for 'contact' were relaxed, there should be several of them today." Lance snapped his fingers, "There are two people who work in the stables, one on the first floor, and another The one who serves the dishes? That's all four of them."

The window was not closed tightly, and it opened as soon as the wind blew. Lance walked to the window while talking, and just touched the curtain that was blown by the wind with his fingers. —I mean that man among the footmen, who works over there in the stables?"

Leif went to the window and looked out.

Suddenly, a familiar? Childish voice came from the top of her head?: "Is this? Is this person? I've met? Several times, I can help you follow him."

Leif took a step back, looked up, and found that the red? villain was standing on the? window frame.The last time in the carriage, Medra was told by Laifu that "it's hopeless" and "it's useless." After getting off the carriage, she ran away without a trace.Leif always thought that this little person was angry with her, so she didn't show up for so long. These few days, she was worried and regretful. At this time, seeing Madeira finally came back again, she couldn't help but face Show guilt.

——Actually, the reason why Madeira didn't come to look for her was because she was afraid of Natia Vida and dared not show her face.

When Medra talked about her, she still stayed with Lily most of the time these days. Anyway, she was small, and she could sleep for a night in a small gap, and be full by sucking a drop of dew. Huge temperature difference, violent and foul smelling sand and dust didn't have the slightest fear, so I didn't suffer any hardships.

"Follow, can you?" Leff has always regarded Medra as a humanoid pet. As long as she can talk to me to relieve boredom, she will be with me all the time. Never? Never? She is expected to do dangerous things for herself.

"Don't look down on me, but don't forget, I've saved you several times." Medra folded her hands on her chest, and the red scarf on her head was blown like an open? Flying into the sky with her whole body, "I'll help you with such a small matter, without any problem."

Madeira turned around and turned her back to her: "Please don't doubt my ability." After speaking, she jumped directly, opened her turban, and fell slowly, just stopping on the servant's shoulder, like A fat? Fallen flower.

Lance witnessed the scene of Lev talking into the air and dancing with his hands, touching his clean chin with his little hand, and said to Natia Vida worriedly: "Did Lev do something wrong? She has been doing this all the time. ?

"She has a little friend, and she was talking to that little friend just now." Natia Vida said, "It's just that Miss Knight's? little friend is invisible to ordinary people. We should be able to get those missing We've got news from your valet, and with that said, we'll be able to join up with the other knights soon."

Lance was initially curious about the thing that talked to Leif, but when he thought about other things, the knights were about to see her, he couldn't think about other things.

--

The next day, everything was business as usual.

The only change is that the amount of fabric that the old steward sent to Lance to sew has suddenly increased.

Lance put it in his hand and measured it, and knew that it was more than doubled.

The old steward left after delivering the clothes, leaving only Lance in the house.Leif is said to be going to see her friend who is invisible to ordinary people. Lord Natia Vida has always been used to going in and out with Leif, so she never came.

Lance is still following the previous process, preparing to put the clothes together according to the parts first, and then stitch them together.But this time? Even the first step seemed extremely difficult.

Originally, there was only one piece of clothing that needed to be put together, and many parts could be seen at a glance. Even if the spelling was wrong at the beginning, after the whole piece was put together, it would not take much effort to adjust the parts.But this time, he found eleven knots just for the sleeves... No, more than eleven knots. After digging through the pile of cloth pieces several times, he found five more knots, making a total of sixteen knots.

According to the usual rule, a sleeve is divided into upper and lower parts, and sixteen sleeves can form eight sleeves, which is the amount of four clothes.

Sleeves are the easiest to find, followed by shoulders, necklines and other special-shaped parts. The rest of the parts need to be confirmed slowly according to the length, length and shape of the edge.

Even if the parts are confirmed one by one, there are still problems.

——These are four robes of different sizes.

Not only must the parts be matched, but also the size must be matched. To put each piece of cloth on four pieces of clothing into its own place, it takes more than four times as much time and energy as putting together one piece of clothing.

Lance struggled for a long time, but still didn't? After finishing the fight, he couldn't help feeling upset.

In fact, she is not so resistant to the requirement to sew a piece of clothing every day. After all, it is so difficult.But she didn't think that there would be more clothes? If she sewed four clothes today, wouldn't she have to sew eight pieces tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow, wouldn't she have to sew sixteen pieces...Continuing to imagine like this, Lance simply didn't know what to do. I don't want to move anymore.

When Leff pushed the door open and came in, he saw the dark orange-red fabric spread all over the floor. The arms and shoulders were beginning to take shape, and the neckline and hem were almost in shape, but the abdomen—including the front The back facing the abdomen is empty.

She leaned over and picked up a piece of fabric, spread it in her hands and looked at it.

The little girl from Lance hugged her knees and huddled in the corner, looking deeply shocked. Seeing Leif come in, she said: "I really can't stand it anymore, such delicate work as sewing is really not human." Did it?. I'm driving myself crazy - I'm never going to sew any more clothes if I'm going to fight Mr. Leander right away!"

Then he stood up suddenly, "Yes, why didn't I come earlier? Didn't I think of it? I should have killed Mr. Leander. If you don't kill him once, you can do it twice. If you can't do it twice, you can do it three times, four times This time... I should fight with a sword? Knight, shouldn't I be doing such delicate work?"

Lance walked out holding the epee, and almost fell into the arms of Natia Vida who was standing at the door.

"If you know what you're going to sew," Leif's voice came from behind Lance, "you won't think it's delicate work."

Lance took a few steps back, turned around and looked at Leif, his delicate little face wrinkled together: "What could this be? Isn't it the clothes worn by the servants? Cut it open A few paragraphs, and then I have someone to mend it and put it back together—something specially used to entertain people!"

Leff pointed to a long dark orange robe with an empty stomach on the ground, "You can imagine that this was originally a complete human being. It's like cutting clothes into pieces, and it's also harmful to human beings. The body was treated similarly, and Alicia was then required to be stitched back into place..."

Last night Medra followed the manservant in the stable and found him in a clearing in the middle of the castle.There were three other footmen standing in the clearing.

Mr. Leander was there too, and he stepped forward to reprimand the footmen.The servants kept begging around.

But in an instant, something suddenly rose up in the open space, and pieces of it became as thin as sharp knives.The four male servants were cut into pieces in an instant, but not a single drop of blood flowed out.Those fragments floated up, and when they fell into Mr. Leander's hands, they became fragments of a robe.

After Mr. Leander left, Medra discovered that the wind had blown dust on the open space.I went forward to check it, but I didn't find any weapons on the ground, only soft sand on the ground.

It turns out that Mr. Leander can manipulate sand as a weapon.

Leif briefly explained Medra's discovery.

"These pieces of cloth..." Lance had already felt disgusted, but he forced himself to continue, "It's the same as what we saw...those cut up...bodies, both men and women...cut up It's very neat, there are centipede-like indentations in the place where it was cut... and these indentations are actually stitches..."

"The old steward said three rules. The first rule is not to talk to young men except Mr. Leander; the second rule is not to go out at night; the third rule is to do mending work." Leif said, "We've now? confirmed that if? the first two are violated, someone will die—any? servant who showed... a semblance of friendliness to you has disappeared; if... you are in? Going out randomly at night, instead of entering your own house, but entering another Alicia's house, as long as you are discovered, the result will be the same as that of the servants. The only thing that violates the third rule The consequences of the rules? I don’t know yet, but combined with the first two, what do you think the consequences of not sewing clothes are?”

Lance put down his epee, and began to piece together his clothes in desperation: "Consequences? Obviously, I will die? The corpse will be cut up? Someone needs to sew the body parts? Who will do the sewing? Of course, it can only be sent to the next Alicia to sew... After the puppet manservant dies, it becomes a piece of cloth, which is easy to sew; what will become of me after I die, I don’t know , but it must be difficult to sew..."

Lance was pretty distressed, but Lev wasn't.

"After all, we know the rules of the cycle operation now, which is much better than when we didn't know anything." Laif knew that the game had deviated from the original track, and she was in the middle of the task. You have to think about your own life, but in the process of cleaning up the little monsters, you can find out the direction, understand the inside story, and when the face of the big monster in the level gradually emerges, you can't help but get excited ?.

Natia Vida saw with her own eyes that Lev vomited for a long time after hearing the news from Medra, revealing the fragility that human beings should have.But I didn't expect that the person who was trembling with fright at the first moment would recover immediately in the next moment... If she didn't misread it, she was even a little excited.It's not that there is no fear, but besides the fear, there is also a kind of excitement that cannot be hidden.

"Master Natia Vida, according to the original arrangement, bring the rest of your companions here tonight." Leif said, "Today is already the seventeenth day, and the winter solstice is just [-] minutes away." It's only five days. Everything has to be resolved within?these?five days, and our current?progress is still far behind. "

Natia Vida responded, "Yes."

"Wait? Wait? But...they're all men, not like you two." Lance said, "If...they got here? Wouldn't it be easy...to be like this? Like rags."

"Now that you know the rules, you can find? Loopholes?" Leff patted the door, "During? You are? Alicia, just keep them from talking to? You."

--

That night, Natia Vida walked in and out of the house, and every time she entered, she was accompanied by one or two knights.

But Natia Vida only entered and exited seven times, including the last knight brought in, there were only nine in total.

Lev turned her head to the side and looked at the door: "No? Is there anyone else?"

"I have visited all the rooms on the second floor in the past few nights, and there are indeed only these few people." Natia Vida sat on the armchair, picked up the glass, and took a sip of water, "Yes The ones who turned into Sabrina or Alicia were the ones who didn't promise to marry their daughters to Mr. Leander; the ones who did, I never met. I heard before Based on your conversation, it seems that more than half of the people did not agree, and I did not expect that there are only so few people."

"After all, the cloud of dust at that time was really scary. Someone rescued you. Of course, I am grateful to Dade. My mind is confused, let alone marrying a girl who doesn't exist yet. Even if you want to dedicate yourself, it's not a problem. I almost agreed at the beginning." A knight straightened his neckline uncomfortably, and after speaking the previous sentence, he suddenly realized something, sighed, and with the movement of sighing, he swayed his waist slightly, Put your hand on your own chin, "Yeah, that's it. Anyway, there is always someone who wants to marry. If you don't want your own daughter to marry, they will turn people into girls and replace them." Girlfriend to marry."

The other knight was originally picking his nails. At this time, he tightened his legs, pressed his hands on the hem of his clothes, leaned forward, and said, "Isn't it? But in retrospect, I will realize that this It's a strange request, and you can't agree to it casually. If you admitted at the time that you agreed to the request casually, it seemed that your will was not firm, so you told a little lie."

The same person who told this little lie, and Captain Hilton, this knight may have thought of this, raised his hand, covered his lips, and added: "This is also human nature. .”

Another knight said softly: "I don't know what about those who agreed to marry their daughters? Will they be in danger?" In Leif's memory, he had a beard, I don't know He had been shaved at some point; and he had always been quite grumpy, and it seemed that his grumpiness had disappeared along with the beard.
