The Mystery:The Witch and the Scourge

When Count Wolfe heard this, the smile on his face faded slightly, and he stared at the unfamiliar Louise with his deep eyes... Although Louise had attended the ball held by him, Mr. Wolfe had long forgotten such an insignificant event.

figure.

Osman remained calm, maintaining the poise of a soldier, and replied in a deep voice:

"This is Miss Louise from the Southern Continent, a friend I just made acquaintance with."

After hearing this, Count Wolfe's expression softened a lot, and his right hand holding the wine glass relaxed slightly.

Louise bowed gracefully and said: "Mr. Duke, Mr. Earl, it's a pleasure to meet you two."

Duke Negan recalled it for two seconds and suddenly realized: "I remembered it."

"Are you the 'good friend' from the Southern Continent that Audrey calls broad-minded and knowledgeable?"

Louise smiled reservedly and said, "Miss Audrey is the most beautiful and kind-hearted lady I have ever seen. She has a pair of eyes that can see the beauty of the world."

There is a Buddha in my heart, and everything I see is a Buddha... She suddenly remembered a famous saying that she once remembered deeply, but there is no Buddha in this world, and it is impossible for Russell to say this sentence, so Louise had to change

statement.

Duke Negan was stunned for a moment, then laughed twice, with a hearty smile, and said with appreciation:

"Based on what you just said, I concluded that Audrey did not exaggerate her description of you."

"Thank you, Mr. Duke, for your compliment." Louise bowed slightly.

Then, she clinked glasses with Duke Negan who raised his glass, raised his head slightly, and took a sip of red wine, which made her face slightly rosy.

The Osmans and his son who stood aside had no choice but to remain silent. They both had an inexplicable illusion in their hearts. They seemed to have become the foil for these two people with a huge difference in status.

Duke Negan drank the remaining red wine in one gulp, handed the glass to the blond secretary behind him, then looked Louise up and down with his eyes, and actually said proactively:

"If there is a chance next time, I will invite you to the ball I hold next time. Let me see what will happen if 'Backlund's most dazzling gem' and 'the hidden pearl of the Southern Continent' stand together.

What kind of scene is it?”

Louise smiled happily and said, "I hope that at that time, Mr. Duke will have the same thoughts as he does now."

"I like your confidence." Duke Negan said with a smile: "I still have something to do, so I won't take up your young people's time. I wish you a happy night."

Louise bowed in response, then said goodbye to Osman and walked towards the banquet table.

Duke Negan suddenly sighed: "It's been a long time since there has been such an interesting woman in Backlund."

When the blond secretary who was standing behind him heard this, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes, and he leaned in and said something in Duke Negan's ear. Mr. Duke was a little surprised, but he still nodded.

…………

"Is this your 'ability'?" Osman asked.

Louise picked up a piece of grilled lobster meat, enjoyed the sweetness between her lips and teeth, and then answered:

"It's a charm."

Osman put his hands behind his back and said calmly:

"The charm of 'Witch'?"

Louise paused slightly, retracted her right hand that continued to pick up the food, glanced at him, and said thoughtfully:

"I seem to remember that Mr. Osman once said that when he saw the little girl for the first time, he seemed to have a very special feeling..."

Osman's face stiffened slightly, his body straightened up, and he asked:

"Have it?"

"Maybe I remembered it wrong." Louise retracted her words indifferently, looked at Kolya not far away, turned around and said:

"I'm afraid I have to excuse myself, but I also wish you a pleasant evening."

Watching Louise's swaying figure slowly leaving, Osman suddenly uttered a word:

"Witch."

…………

Having successfully achieved her goal of getting close to Duke Negan tonight, Louise did not stay any longer, but instead apologized and left the dinner venue early.

Because, she noticed the stern expression on the maid lady's face. It was not an ordinary emotion, but represented an incident that she could not solve.

The carriage drove quickly onto the familiar wide road. Louise, who was sitting upright in the carriage, asked seriously:

"what's going on?"

Sophia carefully took out a white ordinary envelope from her pocket and said frankly:

"When I left home, I didn't take the envelope with me."

Louise frowned when she heard this and analyzed:

"In other words, this envelope was thrust into your body by a stranger, but you didn't notice it at all."

The maid nodded silently and said confusedly:

"It was probably someone at the dinner party who did it, but I don't understand why it was me?"

Since this mysterious man can hide the envelope on my body without anyone noticing, he must also be able to take away my life at will... This is the danger of the extraordinary world that Sophia has not felt for a long time.

Louise suddenly smiled, reached for the envelope, opened it casually under the shocked eyes of the maid, and joked:

"What are you thinking about? This should have been given to me, and you are just here to pass it on."

Of course, the envelope contained a letter, but this "letter" was a bit special. There was no recipient and no signature. The dense and regular handwriting on the paper was written by one person, Duke Negan.

This "letter" describes Duke Negan's information in extremely detailed detail, as if the person was peeled open and placed in front of his eyes.

Mr. Duke is the "Windwinder" in the sixth sequence of the "Tyrant" pathway, but he carries a dark blue thumb-sized conch with him. As long as he blows it, the Cardinal of the "Church of Storms" and the "Singer of God"

Ace Snake can hear the movement and lock the position...

The blond secretary is the "Chaos Mentor" in the fifth sequence of the "Black Emperor" pathway. After the assassination of Qilingos, the "Church of Storms" provided a "Windwinder" to strengthen the protection. In addition, there are several

Low-sequence Beyonder guards...

He has four mistresses, who increase or decrease with time and preferences, and the time of each affair is irregular...

Recent work content and approximate itinerary are...

Louise read it very carefully, even reading it twice to ensure that she made no mistakes. After it was completely imprinted in her mind, she created a ball of spiritual flame, ignited the letter, turned it into ashes, and floated out in the wind.

Outside the window, blending into the dark night.

The maid stared blankly at this series of actions and said in surprise:

"I don't quite understand..."

"It's okay if you don't understand." Louise warned: "Forget what happened today. You didn't receive any envelope. This was just an ordinary dinner."

The maid nodded solemnly.
