Wayne's words were profound. Fortunately, Chris and Tasia were steady and didn't show any surprise.
Under his deliberate misleading, Alik couldn't help but start to doubt.
"Could it be that Duke Elliot..." He seemed to have thought of something, and his expression changed. However, he did not finish what he said next, but stopped abruptly midway.
There was silence for a while. After Wayne skillfully threatened with a stick, he smiled and took out the carrot.
"Actually, we just want to find that friend to verify something he did many years ago." Wayne asked:
"Your Majesty, City Lord, you wouldn't intend to obstruct the Wenche family's important affairs, right?" The implication is that they came for other things and didn't care about Alik's flaws.
Although using the Duke's name is a bit bullying, I have to admit that it is very effective. Alik's attitude relaxed.
"I can be accommodating and let you see him. But a thief who has committed a serious crime like this will never be let go easily." This is enough.
"Without further delay, let's make arrangements now." Wayne raised his chin toward the door.
"Uh... guests might as well have a night's rest first, and let me clean up the dust for everyone. Tomorrow I will ask Horace to freshen up before I come to the City Lord's Mansion to see you all." He hinted:
"The prison is in such a mess that it may damage the grace of several guests." Wayne thought for a while and said:
"It's okay to stay for one night, but no matter what, we have to see a living person tomorrow."
"Live, understand?" Wayne stared at him. ——Don’t let me get into trouble like the client suddenly getting sick and dying suddenly in the cell.
Alik's forehead was slightly sweaty and his tone was a bit embarrassing.
"I understand, I understand...of course they are living people." He arranged a room for Wayne and others to stay in the city lord's palace.
By the way, Wayne's request to share a room with Chris was ruthlessly rejected by Chris.
As a result, Chrissy and Tasia lived together, while Vern lived alone, separated by a wall.
Until they closed the door and sat down again, Wayne could not forget the strange expressions Count Alik and his butler were looking at him.
"Didn't we agree to go camping?" Chrissy also sat at the table, holding her chin up with a dissatisfied look on her face.
We were all prepared and set out with strong expectations, but in the end it all came to nothing.
"There's nothing we can do, the plan can't keep up with the changes." Wayne comforted him. Now, his expectations for camping are actually not as great as they were at the beginning.
After all... Chrissy didn't want to sleep in the same nest as her. This camp, it’s okay not to show it! On the other hand, Count Alik was very secretive. What exactly he wanted to hide made him more curious.
After all, he is an earl and a city lord. If there is something that comes to his door, it would be a shame not to catch him for having worked so hard to entertain him.
Chris looked disappointed.
"Forget it, let's find another chance to camp in the future..." Wayne nodded.
"Well, I'll definitely do it next time." Chris' expression paused. Here, Tasia's attention was not on the camping at all.
"This city lord seems to be very afraid of Horace's contact with people from the outside world." She also noticed something was wrong.
"Is that man really a rebel?"
"What if it's not?" Wayne asked,
"Tasia, are you going to save him?" Tasia was startled.
"I...will do what I can." She just said. ...In the middle of the night, Wayne climbed out of bed quietly.
He was careful in every move he made, fearing that if the noise was a little louder, he would wake up the two people in the next room.
After listening to the girls' night chat for about two hours, he gained a new understanding of the sound insulation of the rooms in the City Lord's Mansion.
I'm afraid the effect is only limited compared to the tent. But... maybe it's because I've been eavesdropping with all my concentration.
wrong! They definitely cut corners during construction! It must be! The two girls over there were probably aware of this and didn't say anything in-depth.
Either they were talking about the scandal that Teacher XX seemed to be married, or they were talking about planning to go somewhere to play together in the future.
At least, Wayne never heard any part of himself. Damn it! Is it so difficult to just casually compliment your boyfriend on how great he is?
It's obviously a movie about three people, why can't I have a name? Wait... Thinking about it on the brighter side, although I didn't get any compliments, didn't I also get no complaints from her?
There is help! Thinking of this, his mood immediately improved a lot. Wayne was in a much better mood. After going to the toilet in the dark, he was going to touch the Lord's study again.
But when he came out of the toilet, there were soft footsteps from one end of the corridor. In the darkness, there was only
A slow sound of "ta, ta, ta". It has the atmosphere of a horror movie. Silent late nights, strange rooms for temporary accommodation, and even empty public toilets are all places where female ghosts in film and television works are easily haunted.
Wayne was slightly on guard subconsciously. However, the footsteps are getting closer and closer,
The true identity of the "ghost" finally appears - it's Tasia.
"Uh..." Wayne greeted awkwardly,
"Tasia, come to the bathroom too..." He regretted it as soon as he said it. What the hell is this!
Seeing Wayne guarding the door, Tasia stood still, as if she didn't know how to answer his unique greeting.
After holding it in for a long time, she finally spoke like a mosquito.
"Hmm" said.
"Ah, please..." Wayne quickly moved away. He was about to leave, but Tasia suddenly said:
"Classmate Wayne, could you please wait for me outside for a while? I...I want to ask your opinion on something." Under the light, her eyes were so free of impurities, and the expression in her eyes was revealed. It's full of trust.
Just being stared at by those eyes, no one could say a word of rejection.
"...Okay." Wayne nodded and agreed to her request. o(m) In order to show that he had absolutely no impure thoughts in his heart, he deliberately walked a little further and stood by the window a few meters away.
Tasia smiled and left quietly. The silvery pale moonlight shines in through the glass window and spreads on the expensive carpet.
Although Wayne had secretly criticized the builder of this city's main palace for cutting corners, but in terms of quality, every inch of decoration here reflects the power of money.
Even, it's not much worse than the Duke's mansion. Well... the land price in the royal capital is much more expensive after all.
He quietly thought about those things that were and were not, and Tasia's voice soon sounded behind him again. (Search on Baidu on mobile phone for [My Sister is the Villainous Daughter + New Book] Click to read on mobile phone to turn pages, eye protection. Power saving. Data saving function)
