Ghosts and Knights [Rebirth]
Chapter 23 The Only Candle
After agreeing to Lansa's request, Pei's dinner was not so solid, he writhed, as if he had bugs on his body, which was Pei's expression when he was nervous.
Lan Sa turned a blind eye, but felt that Pei's appearance made people want to bully him: "What's wrong with Pei? Didn't what I made today not suit your taste?"
"Ah? No, no! How could it not be delicious! Delicious!" As if to prove the deliciousness of the food to Lansa, Pei wolfed it down, but ended up choking on a piece of meat that was not chewed.
"Pfft, slow down." Lansa directly handed over the red wine in his hand.
"Thank you." Pei took the wine glass and took a sip. When he took the second sip, he found that his glass was still on the table, and the glass in his hand was clearly Lansa's, so Pei Yi was excited , was choked again, coughed fiercely, and his face turned red.
"Hey, are you okay?" Lansa got nervous, stood up quickly, walked over and patted Pei on the back.
"No, nothing." Pei coughed and waved his hands, and it took him a long time to stop.
"Why are you so careless? I just want you to use your body to compensate me. Why are you so flustered?" Lansa sat back in his original position and looked at Pei with his head propped up.
Pei pursed his lips.God knows why he was so flustered!Although he was a little surprised to use his body to make up for this matter, but recently whenever he faced Lansa, he always seemed to behave abnormally. It was obvious that he had seen the face and body of more than 20 years, and even Lansa's luo body could not be seen. I don’t know how many times I’ve seen it, but during the day he actually reacted to Lansa’s sexy look, and at night he was like seeing a girl with a crush, and he was still nervous when facing Lansa, what’s wrong with him?
After finally finishing the dinner, Pei followed Lansa nervously.
"Master, the bath water has been put away." Kabul, who was not in the kitchen for the whole dinner, suddenly appeared in front of Lanza.
"Lanza is taking a shower now?" It seems a bit early, right?Pei was puzzled.
"Well, I'm a little tired during the day, so I want to rest early today." Lansa glanced at Kabul before turning to answer Pei's question, "Do you want to come with Pei?"
"No no no!" Pei immediately shook his head in a panic.
"It's a pity." Lanza shrugged and went to the bathroom with Kabul.
After the body is transformed by potions, will the personality change along with it?I always feel that Lanza likes to play tricks on people even more than before.Pei touched his nose and went to the study.
"What's the matter?" In the bathroom, Lanza was not in a hurry to take off his clothes and go into the bath.It is not his habit to take a bath at this time. Kabul will disturb his alone time with Pei, so there must be something to report.
"Returning to the master, it is the result of the investigation on the murder case of the Earl of Adonis."
"It took longer than I thought." It's not to blame Kabul for anything, it's just that it took so long to search with ghosts and hell butterflies on the basis that the suspects are locked into two people, which is a bit unexpected , "Have you encountered any difficulties?"
"Argus Gast has a property on the outskirts of Mona, and that place is hard to get to." Kabul replied truthfully.
"It's hard to get close to? The reason." Lansa knew that place. It was not a luxurious house or manor, but a simple two-story building. The nobles always thought that it was the place where the Argus Golden House hid its beauty.
"There are several magic traps set up around and inside the house, which are ineffective against people."
"Have you been attacked?" Lanza frowned.
Humans believe that there are monsters in this world, but their knowledge of monsters is limited to low-level ghosts and middle-level ghosts, because there has never been a case of high-level ghosts doing harm to the world, and humans cannot distinguish the high-level ghosts hidden among humans. Ghosts, so humans' defensive magic circles against monsters are only effective against middle and low-level ghosts.Although Kabul was specially created by Pluto with his blood, but according to the level, he is also a high-level ghost. How could he be attacked by a magic trap?
"Yes."
"Who lives there?"
"I heard from people around me that he is an exorcist." An exorcist is a magician or swordsman who hunts monsters as a profession.
"A reasonable statement." Lansa chuckled, "What did you find there?" Since Kabul will ask him to report, then there must be something found, right?
"A contract. The content of the contract is to hire a surrogate. The general content is that the hired person will take the scapegoat's death. The hired person will raise and treat the surrogate's family well. I have checked the name of the hired person. It is the person who was hired. The few people who were convicted of the murder and were given a fluke all came from the slums. But the signature of the employer is not Argus Gast."
"A scapegoat..." Lanza narrowed his eyes.
After the nobles committed a crime, if they felt that the search work of the Royal Knights and the Royal Guards threatened their own safety, they would go to the slums to hire substitutes, and then arrange them skillfully to avoid guilt.
"Are the families of the scapegoats being raised well?"
"It doesn't seem to be. They still live in slums, with little clothes and no food."
"Let Cynthia go to Pluto to borrow someone. Those who don't keep their promises should be punished."
Lanza can collect evidence and submit it to His Majesty, waiting for the judgment of the Knights, but the most important evidence does not have Argus's signature, and Lanza does not think that he will personally talk to the scapegoats in the slum until There is too little evidence against Argus. Even if it is handed over to His Majesty and the Knights, the one who will die in the end will be just another scapegoat. It is better to use his own method, which is convenient and quick.
"Looking for Pluto?" Kabul was a little dazed.
"Let Cynthia tell Pluto that he used my spirit to take revenge, and I will guarantee that the ghost will not be scattered. Of course, the situation of missing arms and legs is likely to happen." This kind of transaction is fair, isn't it?
"Yes, master." If it was such a deal, Pluto might really borrow someone.Kabul turned and walked out of the bathroom.
Lanza stripped off her clothes, stepped into the huge wooden bathtub, and completely submerged herself in the water.
Argus Gast... Lanza always knew that it was a smiling tiger, who appeared in front of everyone with a gentle, cheerful and shrewd image, in order to win favor and lay the foundation for inheriting the throne.But in the past few years, His Majesty the King seems to have favored the third prince Phil more. Many important things have been entrusted to Phil. What makes Argus even more terrified is that the commander of the Royal City Guard is a good friend with Phil, so he can't think of anything. The way to deal with it is Argus who wants to win over the Royal Knights, but the leader of the knights is a decent knight like Pei who is a little slow to politics, so Argus wants to win him over first.
Three months before his death, Argus had a secret conversation with him and asked him to join Argus's personal guards. He also blamed him for saying redundant words when he refused, making Argus think that he would leak the other party. Because of his ambition, following the principle that he would rather kill by mistake than let him go, did he kill him?After all, in the process of fighting for the throne, in addition to showing one's political ability, one must also ensure a good reputation.But to be able to endure it for three months before making a move is really not in line with his slightly impatient and overly rigorous character.Sadly, he is back, though not alive.
"Puha!" Lansa broke out of the water, because he was under water for too long, and his breathing was a little short.What a wonderful feeling, obviously not a human being, but having the same body and behavior as a human being, it is really easy for people to have illusions.
Wringing out her hair like a rope, Lanza casually took off the bathrobe hanging aside, put it on, and walked out of the bathroom.Outside the bathroom was the pitch-black Count Adonis Mansion.Lansa is very familiar with the Earl of Adonis' Mansion. This is the place where he has lived for more than 20 years. Lanza is also familiar with the darkness. The dark ghost land is the place where he has stayed for thousands of years. The mansion is very strange to Lansa, the bright lights of the past are gone, the happy laughter is gone, and the warm scenes are still fresh in his memory, but those people never come back.
His family is not in hell. Lansa had already checked when he found out that he was in the underworld. Therefore, they are all in heaven. This is the only place where Lansa, who has seen hell, feels relieved.No matter where they are, as long as they don't experience suffering anymore, Lanza is content.
"Lanza."
"Pei." Lansa turned around, watching the only candle in the darkness gradually approaching him, illuminating the surroundings, smiling as always, "Why did you come out?"
"Just finished taking a shower? Why is it taking so long? The hair is still wet, why don't you dry it? What are you doing standing in the corridor? What if you catch a cold?" Pei spoke again with a series of reproaches and warm concern.
"It's nothing." Perhaps because he had an accident, Pei cared more about him than before.
Pei pursed his lips.How can there be nothing?Wasn't he still sad in the dark just now?Pei's heart moved, and he stretched out his arms and hugged Lansa from behind: "Do you want to move to my house?"
"Huh? Am I being comforted by the careless Pei?" Lan Sa was taken aback for a moment, then turned her head and looked at Pei, seeming annoyed at being comforted by Pei.
"Am I stupid?" Pei gritted his teeth and looked at Lansa.
"Ah! Isn't it so?" Lansa's eyes widened in surprise.
"Lansa!" Pei Ye stared, but out of anger.He hoped to be Lanza's reliance, but Lanza always perfunctory him at critical times.
"Since Pei wants to comfort me so much, use your body."
"Uh……"
"Let's go, you promised me." Lan Sala took Pei's hand and strode towards the bedroom.
"Lan, Lansa? I, I haven't showered yet! I..."
"No need to wash." After throwing Pei onto the bed vigorously, Lansa climbed onto the bed right after him.
"No...Lan, Lansa, calm down!"
"Ah? Why are you calm?" Lan Sa hugged Pei and lay down on the bed, looking at Pei suspiciously.
"Aren't you, aren't you going to do, do, do that?" Pei's face flushed red, and he didn't dare to look directly at Lansa.
"Do?" Lanza suppressed the urge to laugh wildly, "Pei, what are you thinking about? Huh?"
"What do I think! Didn't you, you, you, you say it..." Pei suddenly turned his head, but when he caught Lansa's eyes, he turned back again.
"Me? I just want to sleep with Pei. It's a bit cold to sleep alone. What? Does Pei want to do it? Do you want to do it?" Lansa looked at Pei with a pillow on Pei's shoulder with a smile.
"No, don't do it! If you want to sleep, go to sleep!" At this moment, he finally realized that he had been tricked, and Pei covered Lansa with a quilt angrily, blushing as if bleeding. I almost lost my mouth and said yes.
Under the quilt, Lansa laughed happily.
Lan Sa turned a blind eye, but felt that Pei's appearance made people want to bully him: "What's wrong with Pei? Didn't what I made today not suit your taste?"
"Ah? No, no! How could it not be delicious! Delicious!" As if to prove the deliciousness of the food to Lansa, Pei wolfed it down, but ended up choking on a piece of meat that was not chewed.
"Pfft, slow down." Lansa directly handed over the red wine in his hand.
"Thank you." Pei took the wine glass and took a sip. When he took the second sip, he found that his glass was still on the table, and the glass in his hand was clearly Lansa's, so Pei Yi was excited , was choked again, coughed fiercely, and his face turned red.
