Wife of the Queen of the Black Butler

"The reason for becoming an allied force is obvious and has no value to you, Miss Elizabeth. What's more, I believe that the information you have is better than ours, so please allow me to briefly explain our current situation for you. " Liu let go of the blue cat in his arms and motioned her to leave the restaurant.

Lixi smiled, "But I lost my memory."

Liu raised his eyebrows and narrowed his eyes slightly as he looked at Lixi.He observed Lissie's expression carefully, and began to wonder if this young girl was really as harmless as she appeared on the surface, or whether she was Lady Frances's daughter after all, as Viscount Doroit concluded.But guesses are guesses, Liu will not be so stupid as to show such expressions and thoughts.He lowered his head slightly, his eyes were covered by his fine hair, "...it was my mistake."

"Then, who is going to explain it to me?" Lixi gently pushed away the porridge in front of her, and groped for other food near her.Edward wants to push her a piece of cake, but Lissie refuses.Edward pushed the piece of cake back without saying anything.

"... Ma'am, the same interests will form a contract." Liu habitually tapped the handle of the chair with his fingers, and said unhurriedly, "It seems that I proposed to you to use the ancient and evil "symbiosis" The secret technique to avoid the blood hunter's wanted is the same as the blood clan's use."

This is probably true, but Lixie's steak movements are still smooth and elegant, as if she is really not affected by Liu's words.She just said something irrelevant, "I thought there would be no Western food."

Edward beside him slowly put down the knife and fork in his hand, and said calmly, "There is no Chinese food. Except for the bowl of porridge just now."

The two brothers and sisters seemed indifferent as if they hadn't heard Liu's words.So is Charles.

Viscount Doroit looked meaningfully at the calm and elegant Midford brother and sister opposite him, and then at Charles Fadomhey, who was sitting at the table next to him, who had been silent from the beginning. Well, as if he found something funny, he laughed again, "Liu, you should feel awkward, or a little tricky. Having such a companion is really not an easy and happy thing."

Liu Mian showed helplessness, "Then I should be thankful that you, Viscount,

No trouble? "

Doroit smiled more heartily, "If Liu you didn't make malicious speculations, I don't think I would do anything."

"Viscount, this is a routine matter." There was nothing wrong with Liu's expression, even though he knew that Viscount Doroit's words were a warning.This so-called alliance of companions is actually vulnerable, but for the ultimate purpose, everyone must maintain this superficial peace.But Liu is also very clear that such an alliance will become unbreakable, because some people are willing to protect, some are willing to sacrifice, and some are willing to be that hard shield; Will be the one to move things forward.

Doroit shrugged indifferently, "I know."

Liu Shuli smiled, then turned to Lizzy who had stopped eating, and then made a conclusion about the "symbiosis" issue mentioned earlier, "It seems obvious. Miss Elizabeth doesn't remember much about the "symbiosis" ceremony."

Lizzy looked indifferent and denied, "I remember."

Liu seemed to be smiling but not smiling, and denied her affirmatively, "You don't remember."

"I remember." Lizzy retorted stubbornly.

"No, you don't remember." Liu was very patient and corrected every word.

"I remember." Lissie still stubbornly repeated these three words.

Liu looked at Lisi and seriously emphasized, "Elizabeth Midford, you don't remember. Every night passes, every morning comes, your memory is gradually fading, you can't remember what happened, remember You can’t remember the names of the people around you, you can’t even remember your own appearance. As time goes by, you will forget more and more things, slowly you will forget yourself, and then you will deny everything related to yourself Things, including the traces of your own existence. This also means that 'you' will die. 'Elizabeth Midford' you will die. Not being killed by someone, nor being imprisoned to death as a sacrifice, but disappearing ...this is the price of 'symbiosis'."

Lisi listened, turned her head silently without saying a word, expressing that she did not want to listen any more.Also unwilling to admit anything.

This kind of topic is too heavy, as if the verdict has been handed down early, saving even the time of waiting for the verdict.But unexpectedly it was Edward who heard the ultimatum, lost his mind for a moment, and then asked calmly, "Lissie, how much have you forgotten?"

"...I remember, brother." Lixi said in a muffled voice.

"Really? How much do you remember?" Edward changed the way of asking, but his voice suddenly dropped a few degrees, and he seemed to hear a faint trembling end.

"It's all of them." Lixi's tone was affirmative.Then, she turned to Liu, who was in the superior position, "Liu, I think you should answer my questions, not talk about this."

"Lissie." Edward frowned, feeling uneasy about his sister's avoidance.

Lixi did not respond to Edward, but waited stubbornly for Liu's answer.Liu glanced at Edward, and only replied to Lissie after receiving permission from the other party to continue talking with Lissie, "Answer? Ms., do you mean the answer to the question 'Why did we form an alliance'?"

Lissie didn't speak, her attitude said it all.

Liu twirled the jade wrench on his right thumb and continued, "You are the reason. Ms. Elizabeth, the reason we gathered together is to stop you from disappearing."

Lizzie blinked her empty eyes and said slowly, "...that's a surprise."

"No, it's not unexpected at all, my dear sister. I can't let you live in Great Britain as a "sacrifice" forever." Edward took the napkin to wipe the corners of his mouth while answering, his handsome face was covered by the dining table The swaying fireworks on the sky became more and more hazy, and there was an indelible depth in the blue eyes.

Glancing at the quiet Lisie, Edward added, "Lissie, you should have everything that belongs to you."

When his elder brother Edward was angry or sad, he would always add an "ah" to Lizzie's nickname.

— Lizzie, you always cry.

——Lixi, you need to be independent and grow up, because you are the daughter of the Marquis of Midford.

— Lizzie...forget about him.

——Lixi, cry if you want, brother will always be there, and will always be your strongest shield.

—Lissy, that will be all yours.

- Lizzy...

When that familiar ending sound jumped into Lixi's ears so abruptly and clearly, she clearly felt that she probably couldn't restrain the bone-piercing loneliness and emptiness.So direct and so intense pain, and so firm and heavy stubbornness.But now she couldn't be sure of her brother Edward's attitude, but sensitively felt that his brother's words had a deeper meaning.In a trance, Lixi seemed to remember that someone once said the same to her

——Your Highness, you should take back everything that belongs to you?

Lissie couldn't remember what that person looked like.She only vaguely remembered that it was a woman, more precisely, she seemed to be her former deacon.But apart from these, Lizzy couldn't think of anything else, including the woman's name.That sentence was the only thing Lissie remembered most clearly.This is actually a very irritating statement, as if everyone is emphasizing such a thing-please take back everything that belongs to you...

Lissy has always been very clear that the word "take" is just a carefully considered euphemistic word, and it means nothing more than to "snatch".How can it be called "my thing" since it is obtained by "robbing"?When that excuse took off its high-sounding cloak, is she really required to admit that the so-called taking back everything that belongs to her is only for the ultimate sin crown?

That being the case, why hasn't anyone asked her if she really wanted to wear the crown of guilt?
