Lone Wolf of the Freljord

Chapter 423

"Drink tea." Eve said with a light smile. Unlike Rorschach, she kept using tweezers to put sugar cubes into the teacup until the tea was almost full.

Fiona silently picked up the teacup and took a sip, her face shaking.

"Want some sugar?" Evelyn asked.

"No." Fiona glanced at Rorschach and drank the contents of the cup. Although she was still expressionless, she could see that she was trying her best to control her eyebrows not to shake.

"Competitiveness..." Rorschach and Evelyn thought at the same time.

Demons are good at reading people's hearts, and Fiona is not a city. She is sitting here as if she is naked, and any emotions and thoughts of her are captured by the two demons.

Fiona is really a girl who wants to win everywhere. Seeing that Rorschach doesn't want to give sugar, she doesn't want to lose to him, so she endured the bitterness and drank the tea.

Rorschach picked up the teapot and poured another cup for Fiona with a smile.

Fiona's fingers shrank, although it was only a small movement, but it was also seen by the two demons that she didn't want to drink tea anymore.

Rorschach smiled and pushed the teacup in front of Fiona, and put a sugar cube in it: "You need to try more flavors when you drink tea. If you don't like sugar, it's okay to put one."

Fiona seemed to be slightly relieved, and looked at Rorschach's eyes slightly eased.

Evelyn was full of smiles, the devil's ability to manipulate people's hearts is innate, Rorschach made Fiona's attitude towards him improved with just a few actions, this little girl Fiona will only continue to be subjected to Rorschach. Play in the palm of your hand.

"I'm here for pre-marriage practice." Fiona took another sip of tea, and then said her intentions, "This is what the Laurent family asked me."

"Practice before marriage..." Of course Rorschach knew what this meant.

Demacia is a fairly conservative country. Basically, an engagement between a man and a woman is equivalent to getting married. It is very difficult to cancel a marriage contract. Once canceled, it will be a shame for both families, not to mention the nobles.

Because engagement is basically no different from marriage, many women's families will send their daughters directly to the man's home before the official wedding, familiarize themselves with the man's family and career, and prepare for becoming a good wife in the future. This process is called pre-marriage practice.

Fiona had resisted the engagement so strongly before, but after losing the duel, she came over honestly, and she was also a trustworthy person.

But keeping promises is one thing, and being convinced of defeat is another.

Rorschach could see how unwilling Fiona was.

But this is right in Rorschach's arms, and the more unwilling Fiona is, the easier it is to be manipulated by him.

Evelyn smiled and sat next to Fiona: "Since you came to practice before marriage, you don't have to be so restrained. From now on, you will be a family, and you can treat this place as your own home."

Fiona nodded lukewarmly and sipped her tea.

Evelyn rolled her eyes and said, "I suddenly remembered that I'm going to see flowers with a few ladies today, Robert, I'll trouble you and Fiona to watch the house."

"Okay, mother." Rorschach knew that Evelyn wanted Fiona to be alone with her.

Fiona's body trembled.

After Evelyn left, there were only two people left in the room.

Fiona didn't look into Rorschach's eyes. As a fiancee, if Rorschach did anything to her at this time, she had no choice.

If news spreads that she beat her fiancé, the face of the Laurent family will really be disgraced.

But Rorschach didn't plan to do anything to Fiona. First, he had no interest in women's sex, and secondly, he didn't want Fiona to really fall in love with him like Lana.

He needs to keep the relationship between the two of them at a level where neither Fiona falls in love with him nor Fiona becomes estranged from her.

"What do you want to do?" Rorschach asked, "Can you play chess?"

"No." Fiona refused.

"Would you like a snack then?"

"Not hungry."

"Go horseback riding?"

"No, the dress I'm wearing."

Luo Xia spread his hands: "Is your pre-marriage practice just coming to my house and saying no to me?"

Fiona was silent for a while. "How is your injury?"

Fiona was referring to the wound she stabbed in Rorschach's shoulder during the duel.

Of course, Rorschach was not injured. How could an ordinary weapon hurt a demon, but he still touched his shoulder: "Fortunately, the wound is not very deep, and the Glow Envoy of the Temple of Light helped me deal with it."

"Um..." Fiona agreed and stopped talking.

Luo Xia said helplessly: "I know you are very reluctant to marry me, but do you plan to fight with me all your life?"

"I can't force myself to fall in love with you."

"Is it because you couldn't accept the result of that duel?"

Fiona's eyes became sharp again: "I'm not someone who can't afford to lose. Although you won me in that way, it's impossible to win, but I have accepted my defeat."

"Lie." Rorschach thought, Fiona was pretending to be free and easy, but she didn't accept it at all.

But this is exactly what Rorschach wants, and it is not in vain for his design in the duel, that is, to make Fiona in the middle of the unwillingness of her own failure and the disapproval of the result of the duel at the same time, let her struggle and struggle , brooding.

This brooding is the seed that will destroy her in the future.

Rorschach said: "Since you have accepted it, let's get along well, do you want to come and kiss?"

Fiona's eyes were as cold as murder.

"Forget it, I always feel like you're going to bite my tongue off." Rorschach said with a wry smile, "Then... do you want to go out for a walk? Let's go for a walk in Xiongdu together?"

Fiona sighed, she also knew that there was no point in fighting with Rorschach all the time, they were already a fiancée.

Fiona said resignedly: "Let's go together then."

"Anywhere you want to go?"

"As you like..."

Rorschach didn't know where to go, so he simply clapped his hands, called the maid who was standing outside the door, and asked, "Do you know any fun places in Xiongdu recently? Miss Fiona and I want to go shopping. "

"A fun place?" The maid thought for a while, "I don't know the fun place, I haven't gone out to play recently... But I heard a scary rumor."

"Scare rumors?"

"Recently... the male has... the male has..." The maid swallowed, "There are serial killers."

- "Victims List"

Chapter six hundred and sixty fifth murder scene

"This is where the dead are." Rorschach looked at a civilian house in front of him. There were several armored guards standing guard in front of the house, and there were many people standing outside, pointing and talking about the house.

Fiona was still standing beside Rorschach in her fluffy clothes, with a wide-brimmed hat on her head and a veil hanging from below to cover her face.

The veil is usually worn by young women or widows who have just passed the door, but Fiona wears the veil simply because she doesn't want to be recognized that the person wearing the skirt is her.

"It seems that the rumors your maid heard is true." Fiona said, "Has a serial murder really happened?"

"Why?" Rorschach asked.

"Those guards are not city guards," Fiona said. "They are wearing dragon and lion armor. They are the guardians of the Illuminati. Their involvement in this matter shows that the case is serious."

"Guardian..." Rorschach looked at the guards.

Unlike ordinary warriors, these guards did not hold ordinary swords and shields, but some blunt weapons that did not seem to be lethal.

The purpose of the guardians is just to protect, they will not kill people, so the guardians will only use these blunt weapons as weapons.

However, daring to take such a weapon by his side shows that the Guardians are very confident in their own strength.

"Would you like to go in and see?" Rorschach asked, "Would it be inappropriate to invite girls to watch the murders?"

"I said, it's up to you, I'm just following you." Fiona said, "And it doesn't make sense to go in and see. Can you still find the murderer?"

Rorschach smiled, he didn't need to look for it at all.

Because he already knew who the murderer was.

That house is full of demonic breath.

"That guy Evelyn..." Rorschach sneered inwardly, "Hungry to this extent by secretly killing people outside without my knowledge... It seems that she will have to be punished properly tonight."

"Let's go to other places to see." Rorschach said, "Glorious Plaza is not far from here, let's go and see Galio, the giant statue of protecting the country."

"Hmm." Fiona said nothing.

Just as the two were about to leave, a commotion caught their attention.

A figure jumped out of the house where the murder took place.

The figure smashed through the window and fell to the ground amid the exclamations of the onlookers.

The guardians all took up their weapons: "Catch him! It's the murderer!"

The guardians chased after the figure, but the figure moved quickly, the figure rushed through the crowd, and ran to the street corner in two or three steps.

"He's running!" the crowd exclaimed, the guardians in heavy armor didn't run fast, and it was almost impossible to catch up with the figure.

But at this time, Fiona beside Rorschach moved.

She quickly snatched the crutch of a gentleman beside her and threw the crutch with all her might.

The figure seemed to sense the hidden weapon attacking behind him, and he flew forward, dodging the crutches.

But the flying of the figure also stopped his escape.

The two guardians took the opportunity to throw their meteor hammers, and the chains overlapped, just suppressing the figure lying on the ground.

Crouching down and tightening the chain, the figure was firmly pressed to the ground and could not get up.

"Catch the murderer!" The other guardians quickly stepped forward and controlled the figure.

Rorschach looked at the crutches that were stabbed into the wall and couldn't get down in the distance, and then looked at Fiona beside him: "It seems that you really put a lot of water in our duel."

"It's good if you know." Rorschach didn't say it was okay, and as soon as she said it, she opened Fiona's scar again, and she could only suppress her anger and reply.

"It seems that my future married life will be very hard." Rorschach sighed.

"Do you want to break off the marriage?"

"Of course not, don't let the sword on my shoulder be in vain."

"Tsk..."

While the two were talking, the guardians had completely controlled the figure and escorted him back to the house.

It was a slender man, wearing a cloak to cover his face, and his weapon was also removed by the guardian, which seemed to be a delicate hand crossbow.

A guardian stepped forward, not in a hurry to lift the hood of the escapee, but the first to disperse the crowd: "Now we are working on the case! Please leave!"

The onlookers dispersed obediently, and Demacia has a high prestige in any military organization.

However, Fiona was stopped, and a guardian came to salute her: "I'm sorry, miss, you just helped us catch the prisoner, and we need you and us to make a record."

Fiona nodded and said to Rorschach, "Go back first."

"No, I'll accompany you." Rorschach said to the guardian, "I'm her fiancé, is there any problem with accompanying her?"

Hearing Rorschach tell others about her relationship with herself, Fiona felt a strange feeling creep up her back, half displeased and half embarrassed.

"Of course my fiancé can." The Guardian agreed.

"Wait! Wait!" At this moment, a voice shouted.

The one shouting was a guardian who ran out of the house looking flustered.

The guardian was a handsome young man with long hair. Unlike the other guardians, his armor and clothes seemed to have been cut, turning it into a simple style with a little fancy.

The handsome guardian ran to the guards and said, "She is not the murderer!"

"She?" Fiona looked at the person being held, she saw the round hips and slender waistline under the man's cloak - the suspect was undoubtedly a woman.

"Tariq!" An older guardian scolded the handsome one, "Speak with evidence! This man ran out of the murder scene and is very suspicious!"

The guardian named Tariq said anxiously: "But she is really not the murderer!"
