After returning to reality from the weird space, Lydia's mood continued to be depressed.It's not because of physical discomfort, but... She thinks that the missing wives of Blue Beard may be in danger.

Lydia guessed that the headless ghost she saw in the study should be Blue Beard's murdered second wife.I am afraid that she was killed by Blue Beard because of her cheating.

Lydia didn't dare to think deeply, fearing that she would lose the motivation to pursue it.But when Lydia was alone in the dead of night, she still tossed and turned at the thought of this hopeless possibility, unable to sleep.

Bluebeard's castle is like an iron barrel. The servants are well-trained, and no one dares to discuss the master's affairs in private.Lydia tried to extract information from them, wanting to know the whereabouts of Bluebeard's previous wives, but no one knew except the skinny servant.

However, the dry and skinny servant just doesn't eat oil and salt, and is unwilling to confide any useful news.She was afraid of being exposed, and she didn't dare to make it too obvious, so she had to let it go.

Her ability cannot be used for the time being, no matter how anxious Lydia is, there is nothing she can do.

It's another sleepless night.

Lydia tossed and turned on the bed and couldn't sleep, so she simply got up and went to the window to breathe.

Tonight's moon is very round, without cloud cover, the moonlight is bright and gentle.The sky is full of stars, the breeze and insects are singing on the ground, everything is so peaceful.

Lydia raised her head and looked at the moon. Her expression was painful, as if she was enduring a huge torture.

As if she couldn't bear to see her bored and sad, the moonlight fell gently on her side face, comforting her.

Lydia looked at the moon, but her eyes were vague.Her thoughts drifted far away, if she hadn't had to be vigilant here, she would have completely fallen into her own world.

She looked at it, her vision gradually blurred, and a tear rolled down from her eye socket.

"Irene..."

Lydia said the name silently and let out a long sigh.

The appearance of Dick gave Lydia, who could only wait anxiously for the time being, an opportunity.

His gallantry was superficial, but he had a clear goal—Lydia.

If it is a girl who is not deeply involved in the world, it is easy to be deceived by such a pious man.

For men like Dick, their natural good looks bring them many conveniences.They disguise themselves with gentleness and proper gentlemanly demeanor, but there is always lust, scrutiny and determination in the first glance of a woman.

He often stared at Lydia.

Although not to the extent of looking directly into the eyes, his gaze always fell on her inadvertently.Outwardly concerned about her need for help, she stares challengingly at her prey.

Lydia is not afraid of this kind of people who deliberately approach her and have plots.What she was afraid of was someone who had nothing to ask for like a skinny servant, or... someone who hid his desires deep in his heart and cunningly prevented anyone from seeing through.

This kind of talent is truly terrifying.

Dick's goal is too clear, but it gives Lydia a chance to master the rhythm.

Dick is not stupid, but it is impossible for him to know that a seemingly delicate and beautiful girl like Lydia is actually a hard bone that has survived life and death.

After the banquet was successfully held, Dick left very politely, and did not approach Lydia so urgently.As far as he knew, Lydia was a very cold person who would only smile at Bluebeard.Don't be too eager to treat this kind of girl.He must slowly consume her vigilance and gradually walk into her world.

Bluebeard has been fighting all year round, and Dick can catch a lot of open space. He has a good plan and everything is under control.

It's just that Dick didn't expect that Lydia was much closer than he imagined.He originally thought that he would create many "casual encounters" - from simply saying hello to Lydia, and then slowly making her attitude towards him become intimate, step by step...

Unexpectedly, for the first "encounter", Lydia left him and invited him to have lunch together.

This is really... surprising and surprising.

Dick proudly followed Lydia, thinking about what he should say later in his mind: what did he say that would make Lydia have a good impression of him?If Lydia didn't say a word, what could he say to brighten the atmosphere?What topics are off-limits, and what topics can interest her?

……

Dick thought about it all the way, but when the lunch was over, none of the words he thought of came in handy.

Lydia invited Dick to dinner to thank him for his help last time.She specifically stated that there should be no formality, just enjoy lunch casually.

The two had their own thoughts and had a pleasant lunch.

Watching the servant remove the tableware, Lydia naturally invited Dick to stay and chat with him.

She asked the servants to bring drinks, and nodded politely to Dick: "Thanks to your help in the previous banquet, otherwise I would have been in a hurry."

"You're too polite, please don't say that, all of this is what I should do." Of course Dick immediately responded politely.

Dick drank the drink at hand and understood Lydia's purpose.It turned out that she was just thanking herself, because he was too excited and thought too much.

Dick wondered what he was going to say next, and if it went on like this, their conversation would end quickly.

"You are so proficient in handling tasks, and you can do things with ease. You must have worked in the castle for a long time, right?" Lydia looked a little embarrassed, "Can I learn from you? There will definitely be bigger banquets in the future, I don't want to I don’t understand, I can only rely on others.”

Dick smiled kindly, and gave Lydia a special look of approval: "If you need anything, please feel free to ask. It's my honor to help you."

"I have been going out to fight with the Duke before. As a retainer, I didn't stay in the castle for a long time, only two years." Dick did not forget to add.

His original intention was to humble himself. Who would have thought that after hearing this sentence, Lydia's excited eyes faded instantly, and she only replied: "Is that so..."

Seeing that the atmosphere fell instantly, Dick didn't know why, he didn't know if he said that sentence wrong.

"Hmm..." Lydia hesitated to speak, and remained silent for a moment, as if she wanted to get up to see off the guests, "Hmm...it's nothing."

This is obviously something!Dick said anxiously: "Is there anything you can't say?"

Hooked.

Lydia hesitated to speak, her eyes flicked back and forth between Dick and the cup in her hand, and she seemed to be hesitating whether to speak or not.

When Dick was about to die, Lydia waved the servants out of the room, and finally said embarrassedly: "It's nothing, I just... want to know what kind of people Bluebeard's previous wives were. I heard before that they are all very beautiful... I'm just a little curious."

Her long eyelashes fluttered because of shyness, and her cheeks were also dyed a layer of light pink: "It's not good to ask the servants about this kind of thing. If it is spread indiscriminately, it's not good to misunderstand that I'm jealous. I Not jealous, just a little curious."

Seeing Lydia's lovely appearance, Dick felt like a butterfly was flying up and down in his heart.Especially when she emphasized for the second time that she was just "a little curious", the corners of Dick's mouth raised a little unconsciously.

However, this kind of pleasure only lasted for a few seconds, and then, the surge of jealousy grew like poisonous weeds, filling Dick's entire heart.

How can a person like Bluebeard get such wealth?Why can I sit and enjoy such a lovely beauty?

He can't love people at all, and he can't cherish lovely girls, he doesn't deserve Lydia at all!

It was a pity Lydia was with him.

In a very short period of time, Dick's thoughts went around hundreds of times.Fortunately, he was still sane, so he just talked about these things with Lydia in a chatty tone: "The duke had four wives, and I only met the first one, and I only heard some rumors about it, so I don't know much about it. many."

As soon as he finished speaking, Dick saw Lydia's eyes light up, and even her body leaned forward slightly on his side, eager to hear what they had to say.

Hiding the jealousy that fuels his rage, Dick decides to confide in Lydia.There was nothing wrong with letting her know this, after all, the more she knew about a man like Blue Beard, the less she would love her.

As long as he uses a few more tricks, in the end, he will completely pull Bluebeard out of Lydia's heart.

Seeing that Dick was still playing tricks and didn't speak for a long time, Lydia said eagerly: "I guarantee that no third person will know about our conversation today. You know, I'm just curious about what kind of things he liked before. It's just people."

Dick showed a embarrassed expression, as if he couldn't stand Lydia's pleading, and when her curiosity reached its peak, he said: "I don't know much. Regarding the Duke's previous wife, I have only met her a few times That's all. She... fell in love with a knight, and after fleeing the castle with him, the two disappeared."

Lydia exclaimed at the right time.

"The Duke's second wife is said to have fallen in love with a nobleman and betrayed the Duke."

Lydia opened her eyes wide in disbelief, and said indignantly: "How is it possible, he is so good..."

Lydia was very angry, she stroked her chest, and it took a long time to calm down from the outraged state.She put the cup heavily on the table, her tone could not contain her excitement: "It turns out that they all ran away with their lovers and betrayed Blue Beard! He is obviously the victim! But there are rumors outside that he killed his own wives!"

Dick's face changed, and he quickly motioned Lydia to keep her voice down, and looked around in panic.

"What's the matter! Can't say anymore?!" Lydia stood up angrily.

"Please calm down." Dick comforted Lydia. He wanted to explain to Lydia several times, but in the end he avoided her gaze.

"It's impossible for the Duke to kill his wife." Dick waved his hands frequently, but his terrified expression confirmed Lydia's statement.

"Anyway, you'd better be careful." After leaving such specious words at the end, Dick took a deep look at Lydia and left in a panic.

After Dick left, Lydia tapped the table lightly with her fingers, already having a clear judgment in her heart.

At first she thought Dick was a blue beard, but now it seemed that was not the case.This huge castle looks clean and bright at first glance, but it is unexpected that there are so many dirty souls hidden there.

Dick said "the Duke can't kill his wife", but he has been guiding her thinking, making her doubt Bluebeard.

If the second wife is not dead, who is the ghost she saw?

"The Duke's previous wife eloped with the knight."

Lydia didn't believe the joke at all, which was not funny at all.

Eileen is such a nice girl, never cheat on her.This silly girl, if she loves someone, she can't wait to take out her heart.She loved Bluebeard so sincerely that Lydia was so jealous, how could she betray her lover.

And the weird world reflects the reality, never lies.

So, who is lying?

Why is he lying?
