The first time Qiao Xi avoided him, Pride wasn't annoyed, he didn't speak, so someone who had no sense of danger subconsciously looked at the man in front of him, only then did Qiao Xi see the long and narrow needle in his hand, The needle was narrow and thin, which reminded her subconsciously of the Anbutria who had heard Sid say before, and died tragically in the toilet.

After carefully looking at the appearance of this needle, combined with that matter, it is self-evident what its use is.I had only heard of this method of killing in Mr. Li Wei's works before, but I didn't expect that she would be lucky enough to see her true face today. She is really lucky.

After hearing her question, Pride actually stopped chasing. He looked relaxed, as if he had full confidence in killing her, so he didn't care about spending some time teasing her at this moment.

Then he showed a smile, "Weak and fragile girl, you may not know that when we first met, I smelled a familiar smell on you."

"Maybe you have this illusion because we happen to have the same brand of shower gel or shampoo? Don't be too sentimental, sir, you must know that the most basic is the biggest difference." Qiao Xi sneered "It's obvious that you are a man and a woman, so no matter what, I don't think I have any similarities with you."

Anger affects reason, and it is easy to show flaws when provoked.

There are thousands of differences between chess pieces and chess players.

"Oh, I'm not talking about the superficial appearance, haven't you ever felt the oppressive, deep disobedience that emanates from you in the air?

You are obviously smiling, but it seems to be a sign of death - when I look at you, I always feel like I am looking in a mirror. "

Pride's movements are nimble, but Qiao Xi seems to be very lucky. Although she almost stabbed her a few times, she narrowly dodges every attack, "So I kept thinking, The real you is definitely not what you appear to be.

Now that I saw it, I guessed right. "

"Oh?" Dodging another attack, Qiao Xi stood up from the ground. She didn't bother to pretend that Moriarty wasn't there. The feeling of empathy for a class of people, "Maybe I have to congratulate you for getting the answer right, but unfortunately, there is no reward."

She had already taken off her gloves, and what she held in her hand was the pocketknife, "Death is beckoning to you, Mr. Pride."

As if he heard a big joke, he couldn't help laughing, "One minute, have you seen these calligraphy and paintings?" Pride also clenched the needle, "They are all flammable, just When I came over, I had already lit the fire.

And according to my layout, it takes about 30 minute and 30 seconds for the fastest servant to come. It's just that we have wasted [-] seconds in our slapstick and chatting just now. It sounds like a pity, right?

But I'm so kind, and I don't like to do things badly. Now I will give you ten seconds of hesitation. You have two choices now, one, be killed by me, and two, be burned to death. "

"But I obviously have a third choice." The light in Qiao Xi's eyes flickered, making it difficult to guess her emotions at the moment. "Wait for someone to save me, or I can escape by myself."

"Do you think you're still running away?" The man's face was illuminated by the fire, and the corners of his mouth were full of malice, "This place is not big at all, why do you think I let Rio give it to you?" You lead the way?"

Qiao Xi's mind suddenly flashed back to the servant who patted his shoulder and looked a little nervous——

She was careless.

Things seem to be getting worse.

Qiao Xi held the jackknife with a cover on her fingertips, which made her hold the knife in a strange posture.

It's just that she was forced into such a situation, and she didn't look nervous at all.

And the other side.

Moriarty was led in the completely opposite direction to Qiao Xi, although he felt that Pride would not foolishly choose to do it in public, let alone he sent someone to follow.

There should be no need to worry about Qiao Xi's situation, but the protection he arranged is not personal after all. If the other party enters any room, his people can only be beyond his reach, and he always has an ominous premonition. It was inexplicable but turbulent and couldn't be ignored, making him frown involuntarily.

"Haven't you arrived yet?" He asked as if he couldn't hold his breath.

The servant in front was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect to be asked, but the other party's mood calmed down very quickly, "Mr. It’s okay to go back to the front hall and wait.”

What he said on the surface sounds beautiful and considerate, but after thinking about it, he can understand that this is a satire on Moriarty, a big man who can't bear hardships, and even picks and chooses this little thing.If Moriarty was a man, at this time, regardless of whether the opponent was aggressive or not, he should not be in a hurry, and then continue to follow.

But Mr. Kims Moriarty is obviously not a man... Ah bah, he is obviously not a simple man. After hearing what the servant said, his face immediately showed a trace of gratitude, and he bowed again, his tone relieved Apologetically, he turned his head and walked in the direction he came from.

Originally wanted to stimulate the remaining servants left behind by the opponent: ... Why is this guy's reaction different from what he expected?

But the man who turned around and turned back was still walking unhurriedly at the beginning, but for some reason, the further he walked, the more flustered he became, as if there was always a premonition of "If you don't hurry up, it will be too late" lingering in his ears.

At the end, he almost trotted towards the direction where Qiao Xi was leaving.

Because the place is not particularly big, he studied the terrain before coming here, and when Pride asked for help with an apologetic face just now, he didn't listen carefully to where Qiao Xi was arranged, so he only recalled a little After a while, he ran towards the guest room.

When Moriarty arrived, the fire had already burned quite big, and noisy voices could be heard not far away, and they were coming towards this side noisily. There are servants, but their faces are dazed and dull, and they only shouted "on fire" in their mouths, and they retreated a long way in fear, not knowing what to do next. The conclusion is obvious, waiting for their help must be unreliable choose.

Moriarty was also attracted half of the reason by the billowing smoke—in fact, when he saw the black smoke here, he was shocked, and the direction here was indeed With the shrinking of the guest room, the ominous premonition became more intense.

When he stood at the door, he gasped—his ominous premonition turned out to be a reality.

The strangeness of the fire seemed to be because there was something flammable inside that was crackling and burning. It could be seen that the fire was still growing, and there was not much time left for him to think.

He couldn't hear the sound inside, but he had never seen Qiao Xi during this trip, so she must still be inside, after all, she wasn't the kind of person who would leave willfully without waiting for him to say hello.

You have to go in and check.

After hesitating for a moment, Moriarty made a decision.

If Erichdore was inside, then the heroic rescue of the beauty this time would undoubtedly pave the way for the last rift he felt. If not, this kind of behavior of rushing into the fire because of worrying about the girl he loves is enough. Romance and heroism, but according to the character of that girl, it's strange that she won't be moved.Either way is beneficial, and he just needs to pay some skin trauma, such a choice is worth it.

He decided to do it. After experiencing the incident of snakes in the fire scene last time, he obviously worked hard to deal with the fire. He got wet all over his body and hugged his head with his coat. Moriarty rushed directly Entered the room that was still emitting thick smoke and spitting flames.

Fortunately, his previous speculations were all correct. Qiao Xi was indeed there. Her face was morbidly pale, her breathing was weak, and her clothes were messy. She probably stayed in this fire scene for too long, and she was so anxious that she wanted to escape but couldn't. The smoky smell in the fire, internal and external troubles, so she passed out directly.

Above her head was a hanging lamp, crumbling in the flames. Gradually, the flames were not satisfied with occupying the surrounding area, but spit out evil fire upwards. Moriarty believed that if he was a few minutes late, Earl Sido was crushed to death, if not burned to death.

Reaching out to hug Sleeping Beauty, he let out a long sigh of relief. After planning for so long, he didn't want to feel the feeling of falling short.

Now that he received the person, Moriarty wrapped the person in his clothes and rushed outside.

Of course, when rushing, he didn't forget to take a last look at the appearance of the room, but with this look, the feeling of something wrong in his heart became more and more intense.

Although the room is messy, it is obvious that it is not because it has not been tidied up. On the contrary, it is because it has been tidied up before that the things here are so chaotic and orderly.

So why was Qiao Xi called here?

The messy appearance of the room clearly shows that there was a fight here, and according to the traces of the scene, the fighters should be around two people—but thinking about the people who could be present at that time, could it be that Elicidor was also a participant?

Thinking of Erichdore's low power value, the man holding the girl to avoid the flames forced himself to suppress this guess.

After leaving the scene of the fire, Moriarty realized that there were dots of burn marks scattered all over his body. They were not very painful. Since they were not serious, he simply ignored the injuries. Carrying water, that unhurried and seemingly predictable way of putting out the fire made the doubts in the man's heart dissipate even more.
