Be a matchmaker in an otome game

Chapter 171 Ulysses enters the game

"Your Highness." A figure broke into Fred's palace study, and his footsteps were so fast that he left the maid who was following him behind.

Sure enough, it's here. Fred stopped batching documents and raised his head calmly: "What's wrong? What happened to make you in such a hurry?"

He was leisurely and calm, but Ulysses' eyes were already red with anger.

He came over, put his hands on the table, and asked with red eyes: "Is that true?"

Fred deliberately pretended to be confused: "What are you talking about? Can you calm down? This is not like you at all."

Ulysses took a deep breath, calmed down a little, and then threw a large pile of documents on Fred's desk: "Is this true?"

The moment he took it out, Fred knew what it was, but he still pretended to pick it up and look through it: "Isn't this data the research result of the pharmacist I brought back recently?"

However, the results of this research are fake, and the data are not real. After all, the research has just begun. How can the data be available so quickly? All the data above are made up and are used to attract Ulysses.

Ulysses was somewhat deceived by his own identity.

He is the grandson of the dean of the college, and is directly in charge of intelligence. Felissa's family hired a pharmacist to treat Azarez's injuries, and he knew that the pharmacist was taken away by Fred, but he didn't let him go.

In the heart.

After changing hands, Fred sent the pharmacist to the dean of the college, his grandfather. It was said that the pharmacist had some research that was very valuable. His grandfather felt like he had found a treasure and immediately summoned many teachers and held many meetings. Of course

It didn't have much to do with him. He glanced at the report, made sure it didn't matter, and put it aside.

The pharmacist quickly produced a piece of data. The data was first sent to Fred, and then Fred gave it to him and asked him to keep it in his file.

This data seemed very important, so he picked it up and read it carefully.

In fact, he seemed to understand these data. After all, there are specialties in the field, and medical terms are still too obscure. But even so, he still understood that using too much healing magic will shorten the life span, and his expression suddenly changed.

.

He was not a fool, so he naturally guessed whether Fred was setting him up, but every data on it was clearly recorded and organized, and he couldn't see anything wrong at all.

He didn't dare to bet that it was fake, so he asked Fred directly.

"So, what is said above is true?" He asked again, "Healing magic will shorten people's lifespan."

How he wished Fred would tell him that this was all false, and that this was just false evidence given by Fred for the sake of testing.

The evidence is false, but the thing is true.

Fred looked at him seriously: "Really, you have also seen that the average life of nobles is much lower than that of commoners, and after being treated by healing magic, they will always lose energy and be extremely tired. We always thought it was normal before.

Yes, but this is overdrawing one’s own life.”

Ulysses retorted eagerly: "But these are all observed data, aren't they? There is no conclusion yet. Grandpa said that they plan to use animals for experiments, but the animal experiments have not started yet, and they are still stuck on plant experiments for the time being."

He came prepared.

But Fred only asked him one sentence: "Then do you dare to bet with me? Bet on whether healing magic will shorten your life span."

Do you dare... He doesn't dare. He also knows in his heart that this matter is most likely true, but he always holds a small hope in his heart that it is false.

Ulysses closed his eyes and asked in a difficult tone: "Then... Nancy, was she greatly affected?"

Sure enough, for him, Nancy was what he cared about the most. Fred did not answer directly, but only said: "Look at her and see how many injuries she has received and how many times she has been treated."

If Fred told him how many years Nancy had left in her life, he was not afraid at all. Fred was definitely fooling him.

But when Fred said this, he couldn't figure out the details in an instant.

The unknown is always the scariest thing.

For a moment, many things flashed through Ulysses' mind, such as taking Nancy away now, but they quickly disappeared.

He knew that Fred was watching him, waiting for him to make a mistake, waiting for him to reveal himself. Once he exposed the fact that he was not the original Ulysses, Fred would definitely let Phyllis eliminate him.

.

But why, why can that person survive? What's so good about him? He is incompetent and cowardly. He doesn't even have the courage to face his own heart. He pretends to be sanctimonious. If he is really that upright, how can he?

Why did he appear?

"I'm going to... talk to Nancy." Ulysses turned around stiffly, walking a little heavily.

Fred watched him leave.

In fact, nothing they did could compare to Nancy's words.

Nancy doesn't know their plan. After all, Nancy has a temper that can't hide things. Once he knows, it will be easy for Ulysses to figure out the clues. But he believes in Nancy, even if her life is shortened, she will be persistent.

People who pursue their dreams.

Ulysses knew this, but how could he be willing to do it if he didn't give it a try?

He rushed directly to the training ground of the Knights.

Nannuo had already gone to the border. Sainz was the leader of the knights. The others did not have the confidence to stop him when facing Ulysses, so he easily took Nancy away by force.

After the engagement was broken off, Nancy was inexplicably attracted to Ulysses. Even though Ulysses took her away from the training ground with a strong attitude, she was not angry. She just looked at Ulysses calmly:

"What's wrong? Why are you so anxious to find me?"

Ulysses looked at her with a look of sorrow that Nancy could not understand, and Nancy took a step back unconsciously.

Her retreating movement alarmed Ulysses, and he suddenly stretched out his hand. Nancy wanted to hide, but resisted, and allowed Ulysses' hand to touch her face, stroking it gently.

Ulysses was in a very wrong state, and Nancy could tell. There was madness and pleading in his eyes, which made Nancy feel a little creepy.

Nancy's intuition has always been very accurate. Her brain is indeed not as good as that of Ulysses and others. She is very clumsy in worldly matters and strategic planning, but her intuition is surprisingly accurate. Her intuition has saved her from danger many times.

among.

Her intuition told her that Ulysses was in danger now and it was best to stay away from him as soon as possible.

But Nancy didn't hide. She turned a blind eye to the hand that kept caressing her cheek. She raised her hand and patted Ulysses on the shoulder, with a crooked smile: "What happened? I see you are anxious. Don't be afraid, I'll do it."

it's here."
