On the way back, Hesta always felt a little uneasy.
She kept recalling the look in Palan's eyes just now, always feeling that it was definitely not a normal first meeting. However, Hesta recalled for a long time, and still couldn't remember what on earth about this person made her feel familiar.
"Eureka."
Victoria waved her hand in front of Hesta's eyes.
Hesta came back to her senses, "...what?"
"What are you thinking about? I called you so many times and didn't hear you."
Hesta gently grabbed a handful of hair, "...I always feel that the assassin's final falling technique has been seen somewhere."
"Isn't it just a common magic trick? A big living person falls down and turns into a bunch of pigeons - in fact, the pigeons have been there for a long time. After the person falls to a fixed place, he becomes temporarily invisible in other places, and the assassin also The body must have been prepared there a long time ago."
With that said, Victoria handed her mobile phone screen to Hesta, "Paran asked me for your contact information, will you give it to me?"
Hesta stared at the screen, raising one eyebrow slightly, "...Why does she want my contact information?"
"Didn't say."
Si Lei glanced to the side with some concern, "Can you mercury needle give me my contact information so casually?"
"Of course you can't give out internal contact information casually, but no one has many backup numbers these days."
"...I don't have one." Hesta replied hesitantly.
Victoria looked back in surprise: "You have used so many before -" Halfway through her words, Victoria realized that she shouldn't say this in front of Si Lei, and her voice suddenly dropped, "That's all. I rejected her for you."
"No need to refuse." Hesta came forward, "You first ask her what she wants from me."
…
On the second floor of the tavern, the light was dim. Paran was sitting by the burning fireplace. Her coat and scarf were casually draped on the empty chair beside her. The dark red light coated her black hair with a layer of burgundy. .
She looked at the message "What do you want her contact information for?" from Victoria on the screen, and typed out a long text in thought.
A man walked up to Paran holding a wine glass.
"Excuse me," he held the back of Paran's chair, his thumb brushing her bare shoulders as if inadvertently, "Is there anyone next to Miss?"
"No." Paran smiled and took his clothes back into his arms, "Please sit down."
This sudden affection was obviously beyond the man's expectation, but he soon had a new guess. The woman in front of me began to take off the armbands on her hands, took them off one by one, and arranged them neatly on the table.
The man put down his wine glass and was just about to try to put his leg towards Palan. Unexpectedly, Palan suddenly leaned towards him. Before he realized what happened, his vision went dark.
Amid the lively chatter and music all around, Paran covered the man's head with his suit and knocked him down with the chair. The chair hit the thick carpet with a dull "thud", and the man immediately felt a series of surprisingly powerful punches land directly on his chest and abdomen. The sudden severe pain made him unable to make a sound and could only Huddle up.
Paran gathered her long hair back together, packed her things, stood up, walked through the narrow aisle between the wine tables, and walked towards the stairs. At this time, a waiter discovered the man in a suit lying in the corner. At first, he thought he was a drunkard lying on the ground. He stepped forward and called "Sir" softly. It was not until he took off his suit and saw the man bleeding from his mouth and nose that the waiter realized Something happened.
Amid the commotion behind her, Paran lowered her head and re-edited her reply to Victoria. She deleted large sections of her previous explanation, leaving only one sentence: Hum, because she is very cute^_^
…
Hesta looked full of questions, "...Is this person really trustworthy?"
"It's not bad. Paran is very well-informed. If there's anything in Habitable Land that you can't figure out at the moment, just ask her."
"Really?" Si Lei looked at her sideways, "Can you ask her if it would be convenient for her to give me her contact information?"
"...Forwarded to you." Victoria quickly replied.
"You didn't even ask."
"I can share her contact information directly with others, as long as I call the branch afterwards... This is what she authorized." Victoria looked at Hesta, "What about you? How do you want to reply?"
Hesta shook her head, "Forget it... If she comes to me for something during this period, she can just convey it to you."
"Okay!" After Victoria sent the message, her destination was already close at hand. She put away her phone, "I'm a little hungry after a long night, how about you?"
"Me too."
"I'm okay."
"Eat something before going to sleep," Victoria looked at Hesta, "otherwise it would be uncomfortable to wake up hungry in the middle of the night."
Hesta was in a complicated mood and was too lazy to refuse. She silently followed Wei and Si towards the kitchen. When passing by the garden, the three of them smelled the aroma of food at the same time.
The three of them glanced sideways at the same time, and soon saw Villefort, Danglars, and Alvira chatting together in the courtyard. The two men were each sitting on their own bamboo chairs. They were covered with thick blankets, like bears hibernating.
A dozing little boy sat in Alvira's arms. Beside her, a tall girl leaned on her shoulders - Hesta recognized it. It was the girl she had saved in the afternoon, the Duchess's. niece Sophie.
On the log table between them, there are some cold dishes on several square plates. A white square candle in the middle is slowly heating the glass teapot. The aroma of scented tea is overflowing from the pot, and a light yellow light strip Like a string of bright stars hanging above their heads.
Not far away, several mercury needles of the Victoria team were on duty. Hesta saw the tall and strong Calvin at a glance. He stood not far behind Alvira, looking forward quietly... …Everything looks so peaceful and peaceful.
Villefort was the first to see Victoria and others. He stood up and saluted them from a distance.
"Leave us alone, you can talk about your own business!" Victoria raised her hands towards them without stopping.
Alvira turned sideways at this moment, and her eyes happened to fall on Hesta. For a moment, Hesta almost immediately retracted her gaze. She turned around to catch up with Victoria and strode into the door of the mansion. .
After Si Lei left, Hesta looked at Victoria: "Endai told me before that after Lixi's accident, Tanglar's life was worse than death... But now it seems that they are quite comfortable. of?"
"It's a good thing. Danglars is a bit mentally ill," Victoria replied. "During this period, Mr. and Mrs. Villefort have comforted him. His mood is much more stable than before. What if this person has always been as crazy as Rich?" If they don’t cooperate, it will make our work more difficult.”
