v2 Chapter 463: Lina's mind

Late at night, at the entrance of a villa in St. George's district in Backlund.

The nearby Talim who had been here a long time ago looked at his pocket watch and saw that the agreed time had come, so he mustered up the courage and rang the doorbell of the house that did not show a trace of light.

Speaking of which, why does Ms. Lina live in such a gloomy place? I have to meet in the middle of the night... Is it possible that she is the witch or sorceress that often appears in those horror stories?

I should hire Sherlock here...

No, that's not right, if something terrible really appears, hiring Sherlock will actually harm him...

Talim, who was blown cold by the night wind, became frightened afterwards, and couldn't stop thinking about it.

At this moment, the door of the villa was pushed open, and a young man dressed in a neutral dress came out carrying a lamp. After carefully distinguishing Talim's appearance, he said politely: "Mr. Dumont, Please come with me, Ms. Lina is waiting for you in the living room."

Talim's full name is Talim Dumont. He was originally a son of a nobleman. His ancestor had the title of Viscount. Unfortunately, his family property was squandered by his grandfather.

Talim looked at the other party for a long time, but couldn't tell whether it was a gentleman or a lady, so he had to vaguely say, "Thank you."

"You are welcome." The young man replied softly, and then led the prince's friend into the villa.

To Talim's surprise, the dark-looking villa outside was brightly lit, so that he couldn't help but put his hand on his eyebrows before his eyes had time to adapt.

After following the young man all the way to the living room, Talim saw the old friend of the prince, Miss Lina.

I have to say that Miss Lina’s temperament is actually somewhat similar to that of the young lady whom His Royal Highness is currently obsessed with. They are all so quiet, elegant, and equally beautiful...

It's a pity that no one of them can be the wife of the prince!

Talim sighed secretly and greeted Lina on his own initiative.

After Lina got up to salute, she went straight to the subject without saying any more:

"It is Edsack who wants you to bring it to me, right?

"Hehe, I guess it won't be good news... Is he going to break my relationship with me?"

This... Miss, since you are so smart, you don't seem to be blinded by love, why do you keep entangled? Talim was puzzled, but on the surface he gritted his teeth, and did not mention the unfeeling words of the prince, but euphemistically advised:

"Ms. Lina... I think you should know that the spouse of the prince can only be a noble lady... such as the daughter of Earl Hall..."

Before he finished speaking, Lina interrupted directly: "I didn't mean to be his wife... My goal was to keep the ‘witch’ from approaching Edsac from beginning to end."

Witch? How could that considerate, kind, gentle, and beautiful girl be a witch? Speaking of it, you who met me in the middle of the night are more like a witch-if this is a gloomy castle instead of a bright villa.

After spitting out a few words in his heart, Talim shook his head and said: "But the lady has accepted my suggestion and is willing to leave His Royal Highness..."

"Leave? She really wants to...Unfortunately, she can't help it!" Lina sighed helplessly, and then said, "Do you know why I want to talk to you at this time?"

Talim, who was in the mist by these words, subconsciously said: "Why?"

"Because only in the middle of the night can I temporarily get rid of the manipulated'destiny' with an item...but not every time..." Lina explained meaningfully.

"Manipulate" fate? What is this mess? Talim felt that there might be something wrong with Ms. Lina's spirit, and couldn't help but worry.

"You won’t know what to tell you... In short, you just need to help the caring, kind, gentle, and beautiful girl in your mouth after you go back... Maybe she has the ability to break this'destiny' Maybe." After Lina finished speaking, she raised her teacup and motioned to the young man to see off the guests.

The young man was a little confused at first, and then a Ji Ling answered, and then he took out Talim who was still confused.

After there was no one in the living room, Lina waited for a while, and the corners of her mouth twitched slightly.

...

Above the gray fog, with the help of the young man "Xiao Ke"'s vision, Klein, who had watched the whole conversation, frowned deeply.

"What does this Lina mean? Since she has the means to block '0-08', why did she call Talim and tell him specifically? Is the test effective?

"No... there is a risk of leaking secrets! After all, if the prince is the center of the plan, Talim should be regarded as the person that Ince's focus is on... Even if there is shielding in the villa, once he leaves there, there is a high probability that he will Known by '0-08'.

"Unless, she is deliberately revealing information to ‘0-08’! Is this...maybe a ‘strategic fraud’?

"She should indeed have the means to resist the '0-08' arrangement, but it is probably not necessary to be in the villa, not to be in the middle of the night, and not likely to resist... This is just a false news that she deliberately revealed!

"However, since I would be suspicious of this, would Ince have no idea?

"Hmm... I may have overlooked an important issue before... That is, although Ince Zangwill is in charge of '0-08', the Sealed Artifact must have terrible side effects. The information is shown to the'master', especially when the'master' is not around!

"...Perhaps, Lina chose late at night because she had been tentatively before and found out what pattern, so she would ‘defraud’ at this point in time, hoping that the sealed artifact could cooperate with her?

"She knows ‘0-08’ better than I do... If it’s really ‘0-08’ who is doing a ghost in the back...

"Who told her? Is that the old man who gave her the "Degenerate Morning Star"? Who is he?"

Klein, who had no clue for a long time, paused his thoughts helplessly, muttering to himself:

"Perhaps the'Iron Man' who also has a grudge against Ince knows something...

"Um~lightnovelpub.net~ Although Mr.'Tower' is very principled and he is unwilling to reveal the identity of'Iron Man'... But I can ask him to inquire for me...

"The next time the Tarot will talk to him alone... As for the remuneration, I happen to have the characteristics of a'judge' that the'judge' lady needs! I think with the close relationship between those two, Mr.'Tower' will definitely not Mind the exchange for Miss Judgement."

...

Byam.

Busy days always go by quickly, it seems that it was just a blink of an eye, and the time came to Sunday.

On this morning, Abner had just turned the "Werewolf" feature commissioned by Jane into an extraordinary item, and a shining fire light appeared above the teleportation altar in the basement. Then, "Lieutenant Iceberg" Edwina appeared. Before his eyes.

"The'Golden Dream' has arrived in the waters near Gulain City in East Balang."
