The secret topic about the Cumberland family ended quickly, because Monroe appeared behind them with a dark face at some point, looking at them with a smile: "It's really hard for you all to come all the way. ”
"As for the interrogation, in order to ensure the safety of Miss Linnai, we need to make some preparations." Monroe had an official smile on his face. The more Linnai listened, the more he felt that he was being weird, "Please ask some of you to come to the house first." Take a short rest, Selena and the housekeeper will entertain you two, so don’t be polite.”
Neither Linnaeus nor Cyril were good at socializing, so Linnaeus could only nod politely and smile to thank Sanlian.
Monroe said a few more polite words, and before leaving, he mentioned: "My wife lives in the room at the end of the second floor. She is seriously ill and should not see people. Please don't disturb her."
Before Linnai could nod, the system's task box popped up in front of his eyes: "Temporary task: Visit the Duchess."
Linnai's eyes fell on the word "mandatory" under the mission, and he nodded slowly.
She always feels like a villain who is trying to steal the heroine's luck and cause trouble.
Monroe left in a hurry, and the butler in a tuxedo came up with a gentle smile. Linnaeus followed slowly and began to think about how to meet the duchess.
According to the original work, the seriously ill duchess died at the end of this year. At that time, Vivian was still in school due to final assessment matters and did not see her mother for the last time.
"She fell asleep under the bells of the New Year, before she had a chance to take a look at the roses given to her by her beloved daughter and husband."
Thinking of the description in the original work, Linnai felt inexplicably sad. She quietly used her mental energy to observe the structure of the Duke of Cumberland's Palace, thinking about how to sneak in.
Anyway, the system just asked her to visit the Duchess. As long as she took a look, said a few words of greeting and left, it should be fine, right?
While Linnai was thinking, they had followed the housekeeper to the living room on the third floor.
As soon as she sat down, Linnai picked up a small cake from the snack tower on the table and put it in her mouth. Before she could chew a few times, Cyril sat next to her in a familiar manner and winked at her mysteriously: "What are you going to do? do what?"
Is your expression so obvious?
"Yes, I suggest you practice your expression management when you have time." Teacher Lilia had already guessed Linnai's thoughts and complained without hesitation.
Linnaeus:…
To be on the safe side, Linnaeus used psychic magic to speak to Cyril's team: "I want to see the duchess."
Cyril nodded: "Because of Vivian? Do you doubt her bloodline?"
Cyril's keenness made Linnai look at him in surprise. She always thought that Cyril... was more one-dimensional.
"I can't really say, it's just a hunch. I think I want to meet that duchess." Linnai hesitated and gave a reason casually.
In fact, Lin Nai wasn't that interested in Vivian's true identity. She is the type of person who listens to gossip if it is there and does not have any influence if it is not there, but the system...
She can't say she doesn't want to be shocked, right?
Cyril did not go into details, but just nodded and said that he would cooperate in covering.
Teacher Lilia also joined in: "I took a look and found that there is a very powerful restriction on that room. It is basically impossible to force it open without attracting attention. However, I see that the Duke of Cumberland seems to be about to If he wants to go in, you can sneak in with him."
This is doable! Lin Nai's eyes lit up: "What should I do?"
"Using the mimicry magic of the earth system and the psychological suggestion of the psychic system, I saw the Duke of Cumberland picking roses in the garden." Teacher Lilia analyzed calmly, "I will use the mimicry magic on you, and you use psychological suggestion. Let the Duke of Cumberland believe in your rationality, and as for the release... I can only say that there is a Cumberland family member in this room."
Lin Nai looked up. Selina had just finished talking about what happened in school. She was picking up a tea cup to drink tea to moisten her throat. When Lin Nai looked over, she smiled and winked at her: "Okay, I'll fight for you. cover."
Is my intention so obvious...
Lin Nai was slightly frustrated, but quickly cheered up: "Can you two please give me some cover?"
Cyril and Selena kept their hands unchanged, and the smiles on their faces deepened.
With everything ready, Linnai walked carefully to the window. Teacher Lilia recited a long spell, like a bard's chant. As the spell fell, Linnai felt that the things around him began to magnify and magnify...
"From now on, I have been maintaining psychological hints. The Duke of Cumberland is very strong. Even if I am exposed, I can still protect you, but you know the consequences yourself." Teacher Lilia reminded, "Now you are a ray of wind. Blow out through the window to the Duke of Cumberland, and then I will turn you into a rose, and you can blend in."
Linnai quickly began to recite, carefully maintaining the psychologically suggestive spell.
……
Monroe was actually not in a good mood.
But when he stepped into the rose garden that he had carefully tended, there was still a relaxed look on his face that he had not seen for a long time.
The current Monroe was different from the one Linnaeus had just seen. He had put on a formal suit and looked very solemn. He walked in the rose garden and selected roses very carefully.
Linnaeus turned into a bright rose, and was successfully chosen by Munro, who picked it and held it in his arms.
"Hell, why don't the roses he raised have thorns?" Teacher Lilia muttered a little depressed. Fortunately, she reacted quickly and removed the thorns, otherwise she would have been discovered.
Monroe quickly selected the roses, and a large bouquet of roses was quietly held in his arms, exuding their fragrance.
Monroe simply adjusted his sleeves and walked into the mansion holding the rose.
The entire second floor was very quiet. There was no maid cleaning the room. Monroe walked alone in the quiet corridor. The light became less and less as he went deeper. When he reached the room at the end, except for the dim light emitted by the magic circle on the door, there was no light. There is no light source.
Munro put his hand on the magic circle, and the six-pointed star on the magic circle began to rotate rapidly. After a few breaths, the magic circle disappeared. Monroe exhaled softly and pushed the door open.
Different from the darkness outside the door, the room inside the door is luxuriously furnished. Crystal lamps and luminous pearls are placed in every corner of the room, emitting a gentle light and illuminating the entire room.
On the exquisitely crafted large bed, there lay a silver-haired woman. Unlike the already very old Monroe, although the woman had her eyes closed, her fair and firm skin showed that she was still young.
Monroe's expression became very soft, and he spoke softly, as if the woman in front of him was a fragile glass doll. If the voice was louder, it would be shattered: "Veronica, I'm here to see you."
