Chapter 35 Hairouer's Decision
Having listened to Senator Macht's reply and combined with previous information, Klein preliminarily judged that the mouse in the suburban manor should be the demigod of the "thieves" beside him. It is not clear why the other party would be mad and bite him for the time being.
He nodded slightly and clockwise in front of his chest.
"May the goddess bless her."
After that, he crossed the host and entered the hall, waiting for the dance to begin tonight.
...
In a bedroom on the third floor, Hairouer was sitting in an easy chair with his feet curled up.
Her left hand was wrapped in a thick bandage and no blood had penetrated her. Her expression was gloomy and her usual arrogance was absent.
In the suburban manor, after being suddenly bitten by the teacher incarnated as a rat, she has been in a similar state. The whole person seems muddled and not sober enough. It seems that the bite is not the mouth of a tiger, but the heart.
For Hairouer, although the formation of arrogance originated from the education he received from childhood, the talent of learning more than ordinary people, the excellent appearance, the family in the upper class society and the idea that he was much more mature than his peers, this mentality actually belonged to the normal category before he came into contact with supernatural forces, which did not make her feel like herself. It's totally different from other people. Essentially, it's higher than ordinary people.
So, the teacher who sustained her pride, represented her adventure, and symbolized her source of strength suddenly became like a real rat. Not only did her pronunciation become vague, but she also bit her irrationally, causing her to suffer a huge blow. She could not help but wonder what supernatural forces actually represented. Is it beyond mortals or close to monsters?
Thoughts varied, Hairouer unconsciously pulled a long strand of dark green hair behind his ears, upset by the melodious music coming downstairs.
Just then, she heard the squeaky opening of the door and looked at it slowly.
In came a glittering gray mouse with dark red eyes, darker than its peers.
"Hairouer." The mouse spoke in a low voice.
Hairouer was shocked at first, and immediately he was happy. He quickly turned over and stood up and blurted out:
"Teacher, you have recovered?"
As she spoke, she suddenly saw one grey mouse after another in the corner of the bedroom, at the entrance of the balcony and at the bottom of the bed, with dark red eyes, but only squeaky sounds.
Hairouer stepped back in fear, tripped over the edge of the comfort chair, swayed and almost fell. It was not easy to regain balance.
At this time, she found that all the red-eyed mice were gone, and the door was closed tightly and never opened.
It seems that everything just happened is just her illusion, or a nightmare caused by anxiety in her heart!
After a moment of silence, Hairouer wiped his mouth and sighed.
She sat down again, raised her hand and pinched both sides of her forehead.
Pinched, her eyebrows slightly wrinkled, always feel that just too trance, not real.
Dark brown eyes turned slightly, and Hairouer pulled the necklace from his neck and held it in his palm.
The main body of the chain is seven emerald-green transparent stones, surrounded by a circle of tiny diamonds, which are exactly the same distance from each other.
At this time, one of the stones slowly lit up, emitting a verdant light, reflecting Hairouer's face very moist, so that her eyes highlighted one after another strange and mysterious symbols.
All the previous pictures have reappeared in the mind of this dark green girl with long hair, from the vague and dreamlike state to clear one after another.
Looking at scenes after scenes, Hairouer noticed some clues and confirmed that he was not dreaming, nor was he in a trance where he had a temporary hallucination, but fell into a hallucination of nearly ten seconds.
"Declassifier"!
"This..." Hairouer's dark brown eyes suddenly opened wide, and unconsciously muttered a word full of fear.
She stood up and looked around in a hurry, but found nothing.
But the more so, the more frightened she was, because it was not clear what would happen next and what the people who created the illusion wanted to do!
The only thing she can be sure of is that the other side's level and strength in the supernatural realm are far superior to herself!
It shattered a little of her remaining pride.
After a few minutes, the whole bedroom was still quiet, the melody downstairs was lively, people can intuitively associate with the lively dance steps.
Hairouer finally slowed down and felt that nothing would happen in the future.
Then she had the strength and the mood to think about what the secret man was doing to create the illusion.
Between the ups and downs of various ideas, Hairouer suddenly had a guess:
Just now that one came for his teacher!
He confirmed the teacher's current status from himself through the illusion.
Teacher's friend or enemy? He must have gone to see the teacher now. What should he do? He should not have known where the teacher was hiding... No, I was bitten by a mad rat on a farm in the countryside. Everyone around me knows that... There was a flurry in Hairouer's heart, and the hand holding the necklace became stronger and stronger.
She was not sure whether the one she had just had was good or bad, nor what to do.
She wanted to go to the suburban manor and tell her teacher about it. She was afraid of being in danger and becoming a victim.
Moreover, her teacher seems to have lost most of her communicative skills at present, and even if she receives reminders, she may not be able to figure out the specific meaning.
Hairouer stood up unconsciously and paced back and forth in her bedroom. At last, she made up her mind, pressed her lips tightly, went to the door, and went to the maidservant's way outside.
"I'm tired. I'm going to sleep now. Don't let anyone disturb me."
"Yes, miss." The maid responded immediately.
Closing the door, Hairouer began to change his movable clothes. His expression was very calm and his teeth bit his lips lightly.
She finally decided to go to the suburban manor to remind her teacher.
She didn't want to become a seemingly arrogant but timid person who lost all her principles in danger!
That would make her look down upon herself!
When Herzol took advantage of the bodyguard's attention to enter the garden from the balcony tap pipe and leave 39 Berkeland Street, Klein was holding a glass of sparkling wine with ice on the side of sweet taste, discussing with several men the business problems of the South China mainland.
He sided his head very slightly and looked at the garden. He had already discovered Heirouer's action with intuition.
... Although not a girl with pleasant personality, she still has conscience... Klein nodded invisibly and praised him in his heart.
He had no worries about Hairouer's actions, because it would take three to five hours to get from Berkeland Street in the north to the Macht Manor in the northwest suburb of Beckland, even by carriage, before he could find an excuse to leave the ball and send it directly to confirm the situation.
—— The Macht manor is located on the other side of the Tassok River, although it is in the Northwest suburb. If you want to reach it, you must first take a detour to the bridge. If the day is good, you can use the steam subway to get from the river bottom to the south of the bridge. At night, you can only consider one of the three long bridges, which takes 5 hours as a whole. It is inevitable.
Of course, Klein had used the "spark" gloves, read the "2-105" blood vessel Thieves'information, and had a certain understanding of the ability of the "stealer" approach, so he suspected that Hajour with higher-level items could "steal" the flying ability of birds and use the short maintenance time to cross the river directly from half-space. In the first place, maybe she can reach her destination in only three hours.
But anyway, I'm faster than she is... Klein looked back and thought about who he would invite to be his partner next.
...
At 10 o'clock at night, Elk Farm is located in the northwest suburb of Beckland.
Originally a viscount, it has a history of over a hundred years. After getting married, Senator Macht bought it and spent a lot of money every year on major repairs so that he could invite friends to spend his holidays on autumn and winter weekends.
At this time, the manor deacon is arranging the maids and men to inspect all places and close the doors and windows. This is what they do every day before they go to bed.
Several maids came out of the cellar in company and went straight to the kitchen area to confirm that the extinguished flames had all been extinguished.
As soon as they arrived there, they heard a squeak and stared at it. They found a grey-haired mouse gnawing at the foot of a long table.
The mouse seemed to notice their gaze, but instead of fleeing, it turned its head and stared at them with slightly reddish eyes.
At the same time, more squeaks were made, and one after another red-eyed mice came out from the beams, the storage cabinets, the various sundry rooms where they were placed, and the stove where hot water was boiling.
Several maids were frightened and almost screamed.
As the lower class of society, they are not unfamiliar with rats, and even killed some of them, but it is the first time that they have met so many, and their spirit has been greatly impacted.
"Let's go to Gerd, Gerd. They'll deal with it." A maid quitted the kitchen and suggested with considerable fear.
Another maid nodded one after another.
"Before Miss Hairouer was bitten by a mad rat... These don't look very normal either!"
As they spoke, they retreated farther and farther away from the kitchen.
At this time, on the kitchen table, a figure quickly outlined, he was wearing a white shirt, black vest, dark suit, a half-high silk hat, foot on a pair of shiny leather boots.
The figure slowly raised his head and looked around, with black hair and brown eyes, thin face and sharp edges, just like German Sparrow.
—— After leaving early from the dance, Klein returned to the Dawn Downes mansion, entered the bedroom, and delivered directly with the winner, Nyuni.
Of course, he left the latter outside the manor so that he could change his position at any time.
A mouse caught his eye, and Klein pulled the leather gloves on his lower left palm and turned his eyes to the flower-growing area of the manor.
Almost at the same time, all the mice in the kitchen came together and their movements became stagnant, but it didn't take long for them to return to normal.
They have become the secret couples of "tricksters".
And Klein now controls the limit of 50 secret couples, until the magic potion is digested, there will be improvement!
