you turned on the love game

The manor returned to its former tranquility.

When the weather is nice, you can sit on the balcony and enjoy a leisurely time with a book in your hand, and there will be no more red-haired children suddenly breaking into the room to observe your every move.

Because he now has a new target of interest.

The maid put down the dessert and jokingly said: "Miss, Hisoka hasn't observed the bodyguard's shift and patrol time these days, which made Gordian and the others a little uncomfortable."

"Gordian also asked me secretly, "Is that boy Hisoka sick? Why hasn't it passed these days?" I told him Hisoka was reading a book, but he still didn't believe it. "

Gordian is the captain of the bodyguard. He has served the manor for nearly ten years, and he is a veritable old man.He is very familiar with the internal structure of the manor, and he was the focus of Hisoka's stalking before.

He complains to his colleagues every day: That boy Hisoka is here again, that boy Hisoka is quite smart, that boy Hisoka...

Everyone knew he was fond of that naughty kid.

You raised the corner of your mouth slightly, and asked, "Has Hisoka been reading these days? Didn't he learn magic with the teacher you invited over?"

"Yes. I usually study in the morning and read in the afternoon." The maid said, "It doesn't look like him anymore."

"Really?" You were also surprised.

Hisoka read seriously?

Didn't he say that he hates reading the most, and that it's boring.

After thinking about it, you put down the dessert plate in your hand, put on your warm vest, and plan to check on his situation.

Passing through a carved corridor, the door of Hisoka's room was not closed, but you still stood outside the door and knocked lightly, "Can you come in?"

"Okay..."

You walk into the room.

Hisoka sat in front of the desk in a leisurely posture, with a thick book spread out in front of him, and exquisite pictures were drawn beside the dense text, which seemed to be a magic top hat and a dove with wings spread.

It was a book about magic.

There are also some notes on it. The crooked handwriting is not very good-looking, but it is indeed carefully written stroke by stroke.

【Bad Magic-】

【There is no need to learn this either-】

There is also a weird smiling face drawn next to the note, and the lips are painted blood red, which is very Hisoka style.

It's rare, you think, to actually read a book seriously.

He pressed the pages of the book with his left hand, flipping a page in two seconds, and built a poker tower with his right hand, stacking higher and higher layer by layer.

It looks like it's going to collapse as soon as the wind blows.

You walked over and sat next to Hisoka, and asked curiously: "I've watched so much... Have you found any magic tricks you're interested in?"

"It's all very common things, I've already known it..."

Hisoka turned another page, propped his chin up with his palms, closed his eyelids for a few seconds before opening them, and yawned wearily and boredly.

"These crappy magic tricks are full of mistakes and omissions. If it were me, there would never be the loopholes described in it."

He turned a few pages back again and concluded: "It's boring..."

"Have you learned it long ago? Have you learned it before?"

Hearing this, those golden pupils turned around and reflected your face.

The playing cards held between his fingers flicked up slightly, covering his own lips, and a few unexplained laughs came out of his voice.

"Magic is everywhere..."

Don't say if it will happen sooner or later.

It doesn't matter if you have learned it before.

You raised your eyebrows, guessing that he probably didn't want to say it.

You didn't care, just showed a gentle smile: "Then, Mr. Magician in the future. Since you can read the magic books patiently, the three volumes of "Basic Knowledge of the Mainland" must be fine."

The pretty little face in front of her suddenly froze.

"Mainland Basic Knowledge" has three volumes, each volume has [-] pages, and the content is complicated and redundant. It is all the rules and regulations and legal provisions of each city, and it takes one or two months to finish reading.

Want Hisoka to finish reading the three volumes now?

I'm sorry, children can't listen to such words at all.

He continued to build the poker tower in silence, concentrating on it, pretending not to hear, you stood up slowly: "I will check."

clap clap...

The poker towers were scattered all over the place, and Hisoka puffed up his face in depression.

Time passed neither fast nor slow.

You originally planned to test Hisoka's progress in a month, but you didn't expect that something else happened just half a month later.

"Miss!" The maid hurried over with a panicked expression, "Linna and Hisoka...they are fighting!"

You paused while drinking tea, "A fight?"

"Yes!" The maid wanted to stomp her feet anxiously, "Gordian and the others led a team out on patrol, and we can't stop them at all! What if..."

"It's okay, let them fight." You continued to drink tea, "Remember to tell me who won the fight... But it should be Linna, I arranged for her to learn fighting lessons."

How capricious.

Let the two children fight.

But it was this kind of willful order that greatly calmed the panic of the maid, and she quickly calmed down: "Yes, Miss."

Bending down to salute, bowed and exited the room.

The result is beyond your expectations.

Half an hour later, the maid comes running to tell you how the fight ended - Hisoka won.

"Lina lost?" You were really surprised this time, "She even beat part of the bodyguard team - where is she now?"

That little girl was the strongest. She had learned how to fight for several months, but she lost to a child who hadn't learned how to fight. She couldn't figure out where to hide and cry.

The maid sighed: "Miss Linna said she was ashamed to see you and ran to the forest, vowing to spend more time polishing herself."

Well...it is indeed her character.

You also sigh: "Okay, let her go."

After thinking for a moment, he put the teacup back on the table, "Go and see Hisoka."

Before you reach Hisoka's room, you can hear the sound of "pop" and "pop" coming from the room, not quite like blowing gum bubbles, but more like the sound of something hard hitting a wooden board.

You go in and take a look.

A dartboard hung on the wall.

Hisoka was sitting in the middle of the bed, holding a few darts in his hands, raised his arms to aim for a while, and then waved them casually.

--"Snapped"

Another hit, right in the heart.

Even if you came in, he didn't turn his attention, but continued to throw darts intently.

His mouth was pursed into a straight line, obviously quite unhappy.

The low air pressure was about to overflow the room.

The beautiful golden eyes were swollen a lot at this time, like a poor child who had been stabbed by a bee, and several OK bandages were pasted on both sides of his cheeks.There was a cut in the corner of the mouth, and a healing purple potion was applied.

It looks miserable.

You sit next to him, the mattress sags slightly, but he still doesn't look over.He squeezed another dart in his hand, squinted his eyes to aim in the direction, and hit the red heart with a "snap".

Obviously, he is ignoring you on purpose.

You glanced at his swollen eyes, then glanced again, couldn't hold back, turned your head and smiled silently, only to turn around and meet his expressionless face.

Then he gave you a vicious sneer.

It looks murderous.

But you just feel cute.

You bent your eyes and said to him sincerely: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to laugh at you, because I think it's too cute."

Hisoka: "..."

His expression twisted immediately, as if he had been punched again.

——This time it might really blow up.

You patiently waited for him to sarcastically say something about you, but it didn't take long for him to turn around and continue throwing darts to lose his temper.

The dart board on the wall has been pricked with a full circle of darts.

The number of darts in his hand is dwindling.

You turned your head to look at the 100% hit rate on the dartboard, and then glanced at the wound on Hisoka's face. After thinking for a moment, you felt that such a rare talent should not be wasted, and asked softly, "Hisoka..."

"Do you want to learn how to fight?"

He stopped and looked over at you.

Those eyes, swollen like walnuts, are completely exposed in your sight.

You covered your mouth with a suppressed smile, turning your head away from his face.

Hisoka unexpectedly did not show any anger.

Just looking at you silently.
