For 3000 years, Eunice didn't know what adjectives to use to describe her relationship with her brother Arlo.

She saw Ah Luo for the first time when she was eight years old. At that time, Ah Luo was only four years old, and she was still a delicate doll standing behind her father, holding the corner of her father's clothes with her small hands. Ximashen is colorful, gaudy to put it bluntly, which makes this boy fresh and refined, making people love him.

At the age of eight, she accepted this younger brother without thinking too much, and then accepted the beautiful boy's mother as her own mother, so she later felt that the reason why her father had the courage to bring a strange boy to her Being around her is the root cause of her liking for beautiful things.

She had no mother since she was a child, and when she was a child, she always pestered her father to find a mother for herself. She pestered her for several years. When her father brought the mother and son from Athens back to Corinth, she felt a little dazed again. In the past, she and her father depended on each other for life. , and then when my father walked up the Acropolis or into the city street, he was accompanied by a slim and beautiful woman. She walked behind her father and looked up at their backs, feeling as if she had been abandoned by her father. illusion.

Until a small hand gently tugged at the corner of her skirt.

She turned her head and saw those timid black eyes again. She pulled her dress out from between his fingers, and when the precarious mist gushed out of those black eyes, she closed her little hand into his palm.

No way, she really likes beautiful creatures.

So when she wrote in her diary, whenever she wrote about Ah Luo, she always added many of the most beautiful words she could think of in front of the name, but after she finished writing, the quill pen hung on the paper for a long time, and she didn't know No matter how you write, the beauty of her and A Luo is placed in the Corinth before she got married, and after that, the Corinth that belongs to her and A Luo no longer has the kind of sunshine without a trace of moisture.

But that was a long, long time ago. Eunice thinks that she is not a vampire who dwells on the past and does not think about making progress. Except when writing a diary, she will not specifically think about Aro, but from Alice Cullen When she saw people wearing red cloaks at the St. Marcus Festival in Votra on Twitter, she felt that the memories that had been dusty for hundreds of years were turned upside down again, and this time it was hundreds of years later. When they met each other, the waves that were originally only washing against the reefs along the coast had already formed an unparalleled perfect storm in her heart along with the wind.

She looked back and held up the umbrella again.

The Stark Building is located in the center of Manhattan Island. When the Dutch bought Manhattan from the Indians, they never thought that the island would become the center of the world in the future.

The Stark Group focuses on new energy and cutting-edge armaments. Although there are not many parts involved in finance, it is not far from Wall Street. This time, Eunice did not walk slowly. And jumping between tall buildings in Manhattan, the prompt sound of the map navigation is not short, prompting the direction of the street name, the frequency is so high, as if she will be out of breath in the next second, she glanced at the map instructions, and simply turned it off The map, and then memory, within a few minutes, came from the green cemetery to the roof of the Stark Building.

She stood on the roof of the Stark Building, her hair was stained with rain, but not completely soaked, she used her hands to smooth the hair on her cheeks behind her ears, looking down at the tall buildings, As well as the Brooklyn Bridge in the misty rain, she suddenly understood why so many people from overseas and rural areas poured into New York, which was still a new port city at that time, probably because everyone thought they could conquer it. It's uncharted territory.

She sighed, and then called Steve, who answered the phone quickly: "Miss Stiles?"

"It's me, Mr. Rogers." Eunice smiled, "I would like to ask, where is the front desk of the Stark Group."

"As soon as you enter the gate..." Steve paused, "Has Miss Stiles arrived at the Stark Group?"

"Yes." Eunice said with a smile, "Safe trip, don't worry."

"That's good." Steve over there also smiled, "Miss Stiles is really amazing, she learned how to use a mobile phone in one day, and she was able to travel alone in just a few days, I'm ashamed to say, I still don't know how to use Google Maps. Well, I'll call Tony and ask him to arrange for someone to come down and pick you up."

"Hey..." Before Eunice could say no, she hung up the phone over there. She stared blankly at the screen of the phone that had ended the call and returned to the main desktop, then turned around and looked behind her, but found no doors or windows After being able to enter the room, she went to the edge of the roof and looked down. This side was facing the street, and there were all the vehicles and pedestrians coming and going below.

She jumped to the other side of the building. This side was on the back street. It was next to an adjacent building, forming a small alley no more than two meters wide, and no pedestrians passed by.

She put the phone back into the pocket of the windbreaker, held the long-handled umbrella between her elbows in one hand, held down her hair with the other hand, and then took a step towards the mid-air at the edge of the building.

Immediately afterwards, her whole body fell together with the raindrops, and the wind formed by the fall blew up her clothes and the hair that was not held by her arms, her knees slightly bent, and the moment her toes touched the bottom, she squatted down slightly , minimizing the impact on herself, but after a muffled sound, cracks like spider webs appeared on the concrete floor under her feet.

There are still noisy cars and people outside the alley, but inside the alley, a vampire has just completed a dangerous action that is completely impossible for humans.

She straightened the messy locks of hair, patted the windbreaker on her body, held up her umbrella, and walked out of the alley.

At this time, a slender blonde came out from the gate of the Stark Building with a mobile phone. She looked around, as if looking for something, Eunice walked forward slowly, across the girl's The scarf patted her on the shoulder: "Are you waiting for me?"

The blond girl was startled, turned around and saw it was her, and was stunned: "Are you...Miss Stiles?"

"Yes." Eunice nodded, and then took a closer look at the blond girl. Her eyes are amber. The pupils of this color are also called wolf eyes. They usually look very aggressive. , but once the gaze is softened, it is like the kind of tenderness that gently pinches the other party's neck, which is hard to refuse.

The blonde was a little embarrassed by her stare, and then said: "Hi, Miss Stiles, I'm Mr. Stark's secretary, you can call me Pepper."

"Hi Pepper." Eunice held out her hand, "You're my type."

Pepper was stunned, then held her hand, and said with a smile, "Miss Stiles was joking."

"I'm serious." Eunice also smiled at her, narrowed her eyes, held her hand, brought it to her lips, and kissed her wrist artery lightly.

Pepper's face turned red in an instant, and she seemed to have forgotten what she should say. At this moment, Eunice had already heard the sound of leather shoes stepping on the floor tiles behind her, and then a male voice with a smile It rang: "Is Miss Stiles here to fetch the book, or to tease my secretary?"

Eunice turned around with a smile, looked at Tony, and said, "I like it from the bottom of my heart, how could it be molestation?"

She is not lying, the number one on her recipe is a beautiful lady with a light powder taste, every time she meets such a lady, she will step forward to confess, and then invite the other party to her residence, and the two can discuss Bach , you can discuss Michelangelo, and even Aristotle, she can talk eloquently. After the chat, she will serve a glass of good wine that she has buried for hundreds of years. When the other party is about to drunk, Bite off the wrist of the other party and taste the wine-scented blood of the beautiful lady.

Miss Pepper happens to be one such lady who ranks at the top of her cookbook.

She was thinking about whether to invite Miss Pepper, but there is another more serious problem, that is, the boxes of red wine she buried in the cellar back then did not know whether they would survive safely, although for vampires, no matter how good Wine, like boiled water, has no taste, but wine and beauty complement each other. If one is missing, the meal cannot be eaten.

On the other side, Tony put his hands in his pockets, looked at Eunice with interest, and said, "Since Miss Stiles likes my secretary so much, why don't you order a candlelight dinner and discuss your order?" New book? It just so happens that I'm also very interested."

Eunice was still thinking that Scott would never go out of fashion, and that after more than 100 years, people would still like his novels of knights, but Miss Pepper had already refused with a smile: "Boss, you still have two meetings, this meal You probably won't be able to finish the candlelight dinner."

Tony raised his eyebrows, and when he was about to say something, his cell phone rang. He casually took out the cell phone, glanced at the caller ID, looked a little more serious, and said, "Steve, that serial killer is The responsibility of the Brooklyn Police Department, superheroes don’t need to take everything on their shoulders.” He paused, glanced at Eunice, “Yes, Miss Stiles is on my side, I will send Send her back."

Tony hung up the phone and said to Pepper and Eunice: "I'm sorry, even if I don't have two meetings, today's candlelight dinner will be ruined. The captain called me personally and must send Sis away before dark." Miss Thales came home before the Brooklyn serial killer was caught."

"Is it the recent homicide of the Brooklyn bachelorette?" Pepper asked.

Tony nodded: "It is said that the police just received a notice that another murdered woman was found near the Brooklyn Green Cemetery. It should have been killed for a day or two. The body was thrown from other places. It is the same as the previous victim. Both have black hair and amber eyes." He said, looking at Eunice, "So, Miss Stiles is now a high-risk group."

Eunice blinked: "So, you think I'm dangerous now?"

Both Tony and Miss Pepper nodded.

Eunice tilted her head: "Will be killed by a serial killer?"

Tony took off the brown sunglasses on the bridge of his nose, and looked at Eunice with a pair of caramel-colored eyes. Although his face had a relaxed expression on his face, his tone was a little more serious: "Miss Stiles, New York is very Complicated, more complicated than 100 years ago, there will be various dangers anytime, anywhere, please be vigilant in your daily life, if you meet suspicious elements, call the local police station, of course, you can also call the director of SHIELD Call, and he'll arrange superhero attendance."

After he finished speaking, he smiled again: "The above content is the content of Steve's middle school education film, of course I added the last sentence, but anyway, Miss Stiles, you just woke up and don't know this How dangerous the place is, you are a beautiful and weak single woman, you must pay attention to safety."

Eunice: "...OK."

"Call for help when in danger."

Eunice: "...OK."

"Of course, you need a reliable and strong boyfriend to protect you anytime and anywhere."

Eunice: "...?"

Miss Pepper couldn't bear it anymore: "Boss, it's time for the meeting!"
