I really don't want to cross

Chapter 392 Sadness and Change (Two in One)

Nayuki Subaru entered the inner room under the guidance of Katern, and Wood did not wait there, but found something to eat on the surrounding tables. After all, he hadn't eaten for nearly an afternoon.

But while eating, Wood was quietly observing the members of the Midlo family around him.

"Do you need water?"

A sweet voice came from behind Wood, and when he turned his head, he saw a girl in black clothes standing behind him, and in her hand was a tray with some different colors on it. Juice and water.

"Thank you."

After picking up a glass of water, Wood thanked him.

The girl smiled slightly, put the tray on the table beside her, and asked with a smile, "Looking at your young age, have you been adopted by the border uncle since you were a child?"

Wood looked up at the girl carefully, and a strange look flashed in his eyes, dispelling the image of her as a 'maid' in his heart.

This girl is not very old, and she should be about the same age as Natsuki Subaru. She is wearing a relatively simple black dress, which makes her look as inconspicuous as the maids walking around. This is why Wood just mistook her for a maid. s reason.

Out of the corner of Wood's eyes, he glanced at the table where the young man gathered, and as expected, several young people at that table looked at him with mocking eyes, but the target of the eyes was not himself, but The girl in front of her.

It's as if...the young masters of the Middleroe family feel that this girl is ashamed.

"what?"

Wood froze for a moment, then waved his hands a little helplessly, his immature face showed a youthful feeling, but his eyes showed a trace of complacency inadvertently: "No, I only succeeded after many selections. To work under Master Roswaal!"

"Ah, you are really amazing, little brother."

The girl looked amazed, then reached out and rubbed Wood's head, and blinked at Wood: "Sister, I've heard of it, the character of the border uncle is extremely weird, it must be very difficult to work under him ?”

Wood smiled smugly, and then took a step away from the girl's hand by taking the water.

It's been a long time since I've had this feeling.

If Wood and Subaru Natsuki were to switch positions, Subaru Natsuki would probably feel that she was a very gentle and careful big sister; but for Wood, who had dealt with this kind of person for a long time, the performance of the other party was relatively good. Still a little immature.

But for this age alone, it's still pretty good.

First, take a glass of water as an opportunity, and then look for topics that the two can talk about together, and take the opportunity to draw the relationship between the two closer. If there is no accident... After chatting for a while, they will pretend to be unintentional to get information from themselves , or give yourself some misleading hints.

After all, for a businessman, regardless of the value of the other party, the last drop of value must be squeezed out. This is the iron rule of a businessman.

From this point of view, the young girl in front of her is barely a businessman.

Unfortunately……

In front of the old fritters, he was still a little immature.

But it is commendable that I will subconsciously change myself according to the different people I come into contact with.

"well enough."

Wood smiled slightly: "Although Lord Roswaal's character is a bit weird compared to normal people, as long as you get along with him for a long time, you will find that Lord Roswaal is surprisingly easy to get along with."

"So, little brother, you have been with the border uncle for a long time? Then you must know Frandelica, she has worked for the border uncle for nearly ten years before she came to work in our Midoro family. Woolen cloth."

"of course."

The corners of Wood's eyes moved slightly, but his reply was not slow: "It's just that I'm not very familiar with it."

"Well, that's no wonder."

The girl first nodded her head knowingly, and there was a look of reminiscence in her eyes: "Flanderica is really a great big sister. We all feel sorry for resigning from the position a few months ago due to personal reasons. When she was here, she would often talk to me about interesting things about the border uncle, such as the two twin sisters named Ram and Rem, I thought it would be them who came this time."

"Lamu-sama and Rem-sama have always been in charge of taking care of Roswaal-sama. This kind of thing is basically handled by me and Subaru-sama who are walking around for a long time."

Out and about?
There was a flash of surprise in the girl's eyes, and she couldn't help turning her head to look in the direction of the inner room. Just because of the familiar flamboyant man who was very unreliable at first glance?
Blow it up?

Although Wood didn't know what the girl was thinking, he could guess a general idea from her actions.

"Isn't that hard work?"

The girl returned to normal in a blink of an eye, and looked at Wood with some pity: "It must be very hard to walk around at such a young age, and I heard that the border uncle is now supporting one of the five successors to the king. The current job It must be very busy, the successor of the head of the branch family won't let him care at all, right?"

The girl's first half of the sentence was quite normal, but the second half of the sentence became obviously a little nervous.

Is this the purpose?

A look of surprise flashed in Wood's eyes. He didn't expect that besides the four middle-aged people, there was actually a person who was thinking about the position of Patriarch here.

This ugly drama of fighting for the right to inherit the family...

Sure enough, it's still so interesting.

but……

Wood frowned slightly, did Roswaal care about the successor of the Patriarch... huh?

I had ignored this point before, and the four middle-aged people were obviously not worried about this point. In other words... they all have a certain degree of confidence in becoming the head of the family, and they are not afraid of violating Roswaal's intentions. What does this mean? ?
"Tsk tsk tsk..."

"What's wrong?"

The girl was slightly taken aback, and said with some doubts.

"It's nothing."

Wood shook his head, and the corners of his mouth gradually drew an arc: "Lord Roswaal doesn't care about who the head of the family is, even if a pig becomes the head of the family, as long as he has the ability to control the family, it will be completely no problem."

"Ah~~ so... ah..."

Annoyance flashed across the girl's face, and then she showed a smile that looked more like crying than laughing: "I still have some things to do. I have to leave first. It was a pleasure chatting with you. I hope to have the opportunity to chat together in the future."

Seeing the back of the girl turning away, the smile on Wood's face gradually became wicked: "Don't you believe me?"

"Huh?" The girl was taken aback.

"Even if you're taking the opportunity to talk to Subaru Natsuki."

Wood glanced at the direction of the inner room: "Although I don't think you have any chance of winning, I would find it more interesting if you become the head of the Midrow family. But you don't have to worry, although it will be out of Roswaal's hands." Unexpectedly, but he will not interfere, but will recognize your ability more."

The girl's pupils shrank immediately, and Wood, who looked at the half-smile, couldn't help but take a few steps back.

"you……"

"Hey, what are you doing here, Lisa?"

At this moment, a voice came from behind Wood, and when he turned his head, he saw a middle-aged man with a flippant and spiritless smile walking towards him.

Seeing this middle-aged man, young girl... Pei Lisha frowned indiscernibly, and then a look of timidity appeared on her pretty face. She first lowered her head and called respectfully, "Uncle Weihai Rob." Then she looked at Wood , whispered: "I see that this little gentleman looks a little thirsty, so I brought him some drinks."

The visitor was none other than the fourth son of the Midlo family, Weihailo Midlo.

He squinted at Pei Lisa, with a clear look of contempt in his eyes: "It's really shameful to talk so happily with the servant's entourage. Normally, I don't care what you do, but at this time, don't run out to embarrass yourself." gone."

Pei Lisha's eyes turned red, and she lowered her head a little: "I'm sorry, Uncle Luo Weihai."

"There's nothing to be wronged about. Your father died early, so it's normal for me, my uncle, to discipline you." Wei Hailuo snorted coldly.

"Discipline?"

A mocking voice came, and Wood looked in the direction of the sound, only to see the third son of the Milode family, Pat Milode, walking towards here, with the same indifferent look on his face: "I don't think you are qualified to discipline Pei Lisha on your behalf."

Wei Hailuo's eyes immediately hung into triangles: "If you say that, you are the same."

"I don't deny this." Pat still had that indifferent expression, as if he didn't hear the sarcasm in Wei Hailuo's words.

Wood stepped back quietly, looking at Pei Lisha.

I saw this woman, when she looked at the two uncles in front of her, a mad murderous intent flashed in her eyes, but she hid it in a blink of an eye.

"Oh? Don't you deny it?"

Wei Hailuo's tone became sharper, and he said loudly: "You said that you are not qualified to discipline Pei Lisha, do you feel that you are just as humble, or... because of guilt?"

"I don't understand what you're talking about?" Pat said indifferently.

"I don't understand? Do you really not understand? Do I need to remind you how did Pei Lisha's father die?"

As soon as this remark came out, the hall suddenly became a little silent, and everyone turned their eyes to this direction.

"I do not understand what you are saying?"

"Aren't you going to say something else?" Wei Hailuo sneered at the gazes around him, "Or do you mean you don't want to talk about Pei Lisha's father?"

"I do not understand what you are saying?"

Pat still had the same indifferent look, giving people a feeling of ease, but the contempt in Weihailuo's eyes became more and more intense.

Annoyed look appeared on Wei Hailuo's face, realizing that this bastard was just looking at him as a fool, his face suddenly became very ugly.

"Have you had enough trouble?"

At some point, the second son of the Myrold ​​family, Bernard Myrold, appeared beside Wood, frowned at the two arguing in the field, and then smiled at Wood: "I'm so sorry, I made you laugh Now, everyone’s nerves are unavoidably tense during this period.”

Wood smiled slightly: "Where, I find it very interesting."

"Really?"

Bernard smiled elegantly, and looked at Pat and Weihailuo: "It seems that you two really staged a very good show, which made this little brother feel very interesting."

This non-malicious smile caused faint annoyance in the eyes of Pat and Wei Hailuo, but then there was more or less a hint of contempt in the eyes of both of them.

"Hmph, you just struggle hard, anyway, the next Patriarch will have no one else but me." Wei Hailuo snorted coldly.

Pat used that characteristic indifferent smile to give Wei Hailuo a wordless ridicule.

Bernard smiled indifferently, turned to look at Wood and said, "Haha, little brother..."

The voice of the voice became smaller and smaller, and the surrounding space gradually distorted.

Seeing this, Wood was taken aback for a moment, and then he understood, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

"Hey~~~"

next second.

The world fell into darkness, and I don't know how long it has passed.

"Two guests, the Midlo family is in front of you."

Accompanied by the voice of the dragon carriage driver, the silent sense of tranquility completely dissipated. When he opened his eyes, what came into view was the familiar interior of the dragon carriage and... Subaru Nayue's frightened and confused face.

at dusk.

The dragon carriage walked slowly on the street. At the end of the street, the residence of the Midlo family could be seen faintly.

But inside the dragon carriage, it was extremely silent, except for Natsuki Subaru's rapid panting, there was no other sound.

"I am dead."

After a while, Subaru Natsuki broke the silence first.

"Well, I know." Wood nodded.

"..."

Nayue Subaru's mouth twitched slightly: "Hey! What kind of reaction did you have? Please give me a normal reaction, I'm dead! Even if it's just pretending, please comfort me!!"

"When a dead person sits in front of me, I really don't know what the normal reaction is, but..."

The corner of Wood's mouth twitched slightly, and then he reached out and patted Nayue Subaru on the shoulder: "My condolences will change, and I wish you a clean six."

"..."

Mourning for your sister!Six your sister's roots!

Nayuki Subaru rolled his eyes, but after talking with Wood, the hopeless fear in his heart gradually dissipated. He looked at the surrounding environment, and a wry smile appeared on his face: "Is the save point actually here?"

"Let's talk about this later, first tell me how you died?"

"There's poison in the water... Uh, no, the old man Katern is also poisonous in the wine he drank... It's not right, it should be poison in the food." The corner of Nayue Subaru's mouth twitched slightly: "In short... I closed my eyes, the old man also died."

"Well, the possibility of food poisoning is relatively small, it should be poison in the wall of the cup."

Wood touched his chin: "It's really beyond my expectation to kill you together, but it's getting more and more interesting."

"what?"

Nayue Subaru's face darkened: "Funny fart, this is a crime, Chi Guoguo's murder!!"

"It's time for you to become more mature."

Wood glanced at Subaru Natsuki, and said coldly: "If you don't want to be ashamed like a bereaved dog in the future, you should integrate into this world as soon as possible, and change your cocoon mentality; this world is not as beautiful as you imagined. ...Or, for you with this ability, in this world, there is no one you can trust except Emilia."

Caiyue Subaru was silent for a while, and after a while, he gritted his teeth slightly: "What's the matter with my ability?"

"Are you mentally prepared?"

Natsuki Subaru did not speak, but nodded.

"Not now, I have something to tell you, if you don't want to continue to die, just remember what I said next."
