"Are you still a child?"

Phoenix said.

"Ouch," Wei Lan walked over and patted him on the back.

"Why are you worried? Will I get lost?"

Phoenix looked up at him, then closed his eyes and said nothing before continuing to walk forward, but his pace was obviously slowed down.

Wei Lan was no longer annoyed and just followed him. As he walked, he thought, this guy is actually quite cute...

and many more? !

"Cough, cough, cough——!" Wei Lan choked as he swallowed the bread.

What was he thinking just now?!

Forget about the kid Al, but why did he say Phoenix is ​​cute?

Help.

I am a straight man. I am a straight man x3, Wei Lan's confidant Fei quickly patted his chest and followed the people all the way to the church.

After washing up in the church at night, there is one last prayer.

Phoenix asked him to sit quietly at the back of the church, and he wanted to take this opportunity to ask about those things.

As a result, they were extremely busy, but even if he wanted to take the opportunity to escape, he would meet a monk or nun in the next second, who would tell him that the priest would be ready soon and asked him to wait.

What's the point of waiting? There's still one day left, and he will be able to make it after tonight, but when he calmed down, he felt a little uneasy.

------

The sky outside was gradually getting darker, until the last hint of red from the setting sun disappeared over the horizon.

Gemma sat on the ground against the wall, yawned, and touched her empty stomach:

"Is it true that the Master is not coming?"

Gabriel looked at his pocket watch, glanced at the palace, handed the bread in the bag to Gemma, and said:

"Go and wake up, the time is almost up."

Gemma immediately took it over with a smile:

"understood."

------

Wei Lan was sitting in the chair at the back of the church, dozing off with his eyes half closed. Although he felt very sorry, the noise from the front was indeed too much of a sleep-inducing effect.

He was just about to fall asleep leaning against the wall next to the chair when his mind suddenly became clear. Wei Lan became alert and the sound of his heartbeat became clearer in his ears.

"Huh?" He looked around in confusion. What happened? He was about to fall asleep when he suddenly woke up.

This feeling is somewhat familiar.

Wait...what was that?

Just when he seemed to have come up with an idea, a shadow pressed down from the side:

"Walk."

I looked up and saw it was Phoenix.

The thoughts in Wei Lan's mind disappeared in an instant. Jian Fengix had already turned his back, so he had no choice but to stand up and ask him:

"where to?"

"It's late at night." Phoenix walked forward with his back to him and uttered a few words.

This means it's time to go to bed.

Wei Lan had been very sleepy just now, but now he was suddenly fully awake.

Following him all the way to the second floor, Phoenix opened the door of his room. Wei Lan hesitated for a moment and followed him in, but did not close the door.

But as he entered, all the blood in his body began to surge in his veins.

"Huh?" Wei Lan frowned in shock. Blood...?

Is there something wrong with his blood?

Phoenix noticed his expression, but showed no emotion. He just walked over, closed the door tightly and then locked it.

When Wei Lan heard the sound of the door being opened, his hand slowly moved towards the closet. One should be more cautious as a person, otherwise he would run away while Phoenix is ​​the only one here?

He always felt that something bad would happen tonight.

"Do you want to know...?" Phoenix lit another candle on the table, and the room instantly became brighter.

These words immediately piqued Wei Lan's interest.

"Come here," he said.

"I'll tell you everything you want to know."

These words were like a lure, and Wei Lan walked over dragging the sword. He really wanted to know, and his curiosity was itching to do so.

"You say." Wei Lan walked over and sat on the chair next to the table.

"What does Princess want to know?" Phoenix poured tea on the tea table.

"That gun," Wei Lan immediately asked about the gun:

"Why didn't anyone give me that gun? There were three words like that written on it."

Phoenix handed the tea in his hand to him and began to speak frankly, as if he didn't mind telling the truth:

"More than a month ago, two people in our church were attacked and died. At that time, I discovered something."

He opened the drawer beside the bed and took out an imperial green gem from it. He picked it up with his fair hands and handed it to Wei Lan.

"This is..." Wei Lan frowned immediately. He talked about the attack which happened more than a month ago.

It's only when Lin's other side awakens.

This necklace must have fallen off accidentally at that time. Was he exposed so early?

"So you noticed it from that time?" Wei Lan tightened his grip on the wooden pendulum. He did not ask why he did not report this to His Majesty, because there was still something else he had not asked:

"The second question is, were you the one who killed the people who attacked me and the Crown Prince in the forest?"

"Yes." Phoenix nodded, and Wei Lan could not see any lie in his eyes.

"How did you know about this matter?" Wei Lan asked again.

Phoenix's eyelashes flickered in the flickering light,

"After learning about the above incident, I sent someone to follow the banquet, but I just happened to encounter that scene."

"And..." Phoenix paused for a moment, and took a sip of tea with a calm expression:

“I saw him massacring people.”

"Who?" Wei Lan asked. What happened at that time that caused the massacre?

Phoenix's face was hidden under the teacup, and his eyelashes were raised. The candlelight flickered in his gray-blue eyes, but it was not dazzling:

"Cain."

Wei Lan paused while trying to get the teacup, and muttered with an unfocused gaze:

"Forest...?"

It turned out that he was the one who caused the miserable state of the two corpses.

Wei Lan took a sip of tea, not noticing that Phoenix's eyes were accidentally but deliberately glancing at him while he was drinking tea:

"Then I should ask you now, why did you tell me all this, and what is your purpose in keeping me here?"

Phoenix put the teacup on the table.

"It's just that the princess wants to know, so I told you."

Wei Lan stared at him for a while, knowing that he probably wouldn't say anything if he didn't want to, so he held up the sword with his hand, stood up and said:

"Thank you, Father, for telling me this. I will ask you about the rest later."

Then he stood up and tried to walk quickly towards the door, but suddenly he felt sleepy and groggy.

Wei Lan shook his head and thought that it was too late and he was very sleepy. Then he heard the sound of slow footsteps behind him.

He quickened his pace and rushed to the door to open it. When he reached for the door handle, a shadow came from behind and pressed his hand down.

He placed his hand on the back of the door, and a voice came from the side:

"where do you want to go?"
