Mystery: The Witch and the Calamity

"It was a pleasure chatting with you."

"me too."

There was a crisp sound of glass colliding, and the two drank the remaining red wine in their respective glasses. Louise's face even showed a faint blush, her eyelashes fluttered, and her eyes showed a little coquettishness. The mouth of the cherry is slightly opened, leaving two drops of red wine, and the delicate appearance looks very attractive.

Bakerland was overjoyed, and took the initiative to hint:

"Intis has many other interesting stories. If you are interested, I can tell you all night."

Louise seemed to be a little moved, but suddenly her expression darkened, and she said a little aggrieved:

"No, it's inconvenient for me to accompany a friend to the dance tonight..."

As soon as the words fell, she thought of something again, her expression jumped up, and she said happily:

"On Thursday night, I will hold a dance at home, and I can invite Mr. Ambassador to attend."

Thursday, that is, the day after tomorrow... Bakerland calculated the time in his mind. He had already made arrangements for the "Hermoschuin Manuscript", and he was just waiting to return to Intis after getting the manuscript. last time.

In order to get rid of suspicion, Mr. Ambassador has already considered holding a dance on Thursday night to bid farewell to Backlund, and at the same time prove his innocence, so as to avoid leaving clues and handles for MI9.

"On Thursday, I have plenty of time to talk freely." Seeing that he hesitated, Louise continued to speak seductively.

Bakerland looked at the charming girl in front of him, with a kind smile on the corner of his mouth, and said:

"It's a bit of a coincidence that I'm also planning to hold a dance at the Intis Embassy on Thursday night, so how about letting me be the host to invite you?"

Louise showed a helpless expression when she heard the words, her lips were slightly raised, she looked a little cute and naive, she politely refused:

"No, I've already set it up, so it's only next time, but I think we will have a chance to meet again."

How can there be a next time, then I will not be in Backlund, but in Trier, the capital of Intis... Bakerland retorted in his heart, looking at Louise's exquisite facial features, fair and delicate neck , he couldn't help feeling a little hot, he exhaled lightly and said:

"If the time is allotted well, I might go to your dance."

"Really?" Louise's bright eyes seemed to have dazzling stars, and she said happily:

"Then I will send someone to send an invitation to the Intis embassy immediately. Be sure to come. I will warmly entertain Mr. Ambassador."

Bakerland smiled ambiguously and said, "If I have time, I will definitely attend."

The two continued to exchange warm greetings for a while. Suddenly, an Intis military officer in plain clothes came over and said a few words in Bakerland's ear. The ambassador's face remained unchanged, and he waved him away, and said with a smile:

"Some things need to be dealt with. Tonight's conversation may come to an end for now."

"Mr. Ambassador, go ahead, I'm already looking forward to Thursday night's story." Louise stood up first, and said empathetically.

"I promise to satisfy you." Bakerland smiled, watching Louise walk towards the crowd, then suppressed the smile on his face, turned and left the ball.

…………

"Bakerland has already left."

Miss "Justice" who observed this got rid of the noble heirs who would never be missing around her, came to Louise, and asked softly:

"Is the process going well?"

At this time, Louise was thinking about something that had nothing to do with tonight: "No wonder Emperor Roselle thinks 'the taste of a witch is really good', because the charm of a 'witch' is really hard to resist. It silently arouses people's hidden desires, which makes people addicted."

She chuckled and replied, "Everything is going well."

Then he asked again: "Will you come to the dance party on Thursday night?"

"Why not?" Audrey tilted her head slightly. The plan was about to reach the final step, and she didn't want to give up halfway... Well, it suddenly occurred to her that she found Qilingus at a dance, which led to his final death. As a result, it looks like Bakerland will also die at the ball on Thursday...

For the enemies targeted by the "Tarot Club", the "Dance Party" seems to be their final destination.

"Where did Triss go?" Naturally, Louise couldn't detect Miss "Justice"'s inner activities. After looking around, she couldn't find her companion "Witch", so she had to ask.

Audrey raised her eyes slightly, and said a little strangely:

"Earlier, Miss Triss and Prince Edsaac went upstairs, but there is no sign of coming out."

Louise glanced upstairs, and couldn't help being a little surprised. Even though there was an arrangement of "0-08", the progress of these two people must have been too fast!

"Bakerland has already left, so I don't need to stay here any longer. Let's go ahead." After she finished speaking to Audrey, she walked towards the second floor, as if she was going to say goodbye to Triss.

After being notified by the servant guarding the door, Louise was able to enter the room and saw the proud Prince Edsac with a warm smile on his face, while Triss sat opposite with an expression on his face. It was much more vivid because of seeing Louise.

"Your Highness, there are some things that need to be dealt with, which cause me to leave the ball early, hoping to take a few minutes of Miss Triss's time." Louise said respectfully.

Edsack stood up, chuckled lightly and said, "Of course, you are good friends!"

The two "witches" got together and chatted in a low voice, while Prince Edesak walked to the window and looked at the scenery of the courtyard, expressing that he had no intention of eavesdropping.

Seeing this, Louise invited softly: "If you have time, you can come to me to relieve your boredom. My door here will always be open for you."

Triss' gaze paused on Louise's face for several seconds before replying:

"I will."

"Then see you later." Louise smiled and offered her left hand.

Triss also stretched out her left hand wearing the sapphire ring and held it together. Feeling a foreign object in her palm, her eyebrows twitched slightly, and then she let go quietly, saying:

"goodbye."

After Louise left, Prince Edsac stepped forward, side by side with Triss, and said casually:

"This friend of yours is not simple!"

"Oh?" Triss moved her curious eyes to the prince. Her knowledge of Louise was limited to the "Witch Sect". At least for now, the two are in a cooperative relationship, and it would be good to know more...

Edsack was also happy to arouse the interest of the woman in front of him, and continued to comment:

"Miss Louise has been in Backlund for a very short time, but she has already established a good image among the nobles, and even became close friends with Audrey..."
