The oriental chef Sterling hired is really good at cooking. I have been eating very well in the past few days, but this does not mean that I will lose my temper.If he wants to exchange some food for my forgiveness, he can't think about it!

I have been in a state of cold war with him with a blank face. When he tried to get close to me, I looked at him coldly until he had to retract his claws.

At the same time, there wasn't a moment when I didn't want to leave here.

After night fell that day, Sterling went out to attend the banquet, and I refused to go with him, nor would he force me, so I was left behind.

As soon as I saw through the window his carriage disappearing out of the gate, I set to work.

Because there are guards guarding the stairs on the third floor, I can't go to the attic from there, so the only way left is to climb to the roof through the window.

I changed into the men's clothes he had prepared for me that day. It was a military uniform without epaulets. The cut fit me very well, and naturally it wouldn't get in the way like a huge skirt after I put it on.Packing my pockets of the gadgets I've collected these days, I opened the window and looked out.

It's cloudy tonight, because I'm the only one left on the third floor, so I deliberately didn't turn on the lights. Except for the hall and corridor on the first floor, the whole bedroom is immersed in darkness.

The patrol team in the yard gradually came here, and I waited quietly. As long as they passed here, it would take at least 2 minutes for the next batch to come.

2 minutes is enough for me to climb to the top of the building.

Seeing the patrol team passing by here and gradually walking away, I immediately opened the window sash completely and locked it with the hook below. On the window sash, and then sprinted up, I managed to hold the eaves with my hand, stepped on the window sash with the other foot, and I finally successfully climbed to the roof.

While lying on the edge of the eaves, I breathed calmly and watched another patrol team gradually approaching below. Seeing that they hadn't noticed that a window on the third floor was completely open, I was slightly relieved.

I stood up and went to the window of the attic. I pushed the sash with my hands, and seeing that it was tightly closed, I took out adhesive tape and stuck several strips side by side on the glass.Seeing that it was almost glued together, I directly elbowed the window, and the glass shattered instantly, but because it was connected by tape, it neither made a loud noise nor shattered all over the floor.

After removing the shattered glass and placing it on the ground, I reached in and opened the sash, then rolled over and entered.

Lighting the candle I carried with me, I glanced at the mirror in the next room. There were many figures of me in the mirror, which was a bit scary on such a dark and windy night.

Regardless of fear and blind thinking, I began to screen one by one.Since it is a sacred object, it must be different, so where is the difference?

Picking and picking, I suddenly remembered the tattoo on Sterling's back. He said that it was the family emblem of his family.Since it is a family emblem, and the sacred object is passed down from the ancestors, I think there may be this pattern on the sacred object.

Dozens of mirrors were searched one by one, and there were many with patterns, but none of the mirrors had the pattern of the tailed dragon.

Could it be that I guessed wrong?

Just when I found all the mirrors and had to give up, my eyes swept over a dressing table with a mirror, and then an idea suddenly came to me.I walked over quickly and groped the dressing table carefully.

In the whole room, there is only this dressing table, not to mention, this dressing table is still an ancient Chinese style!Mahogany carvings, flying dragons and phoenixes, it seems that only a noble family can afford it, but the mirror on it is not a bronze mirror, but a mercury mirror.

The mercury mirror was obviously just an ordinary mirror, and I wondered if there was anything else special about this dresser.After rummaging for a while, I finally found a small round raised thing on the back of the table belly.

Without hesitation, I pulled the thing off and saw it by candlelight, and it turned out to be a bronze mirror the size of half a palm!I immediately turned the mirror over, and the engravings of ouroboros appeared on the back.

Finally found it?I was overjoyed for a moment, and the hand holding the mirror trembled.

After recovering my breath, I looked in the mirror and immediately decided to give it a try.I don't know if there are any rituals or things to observe when making a wish, but there is no loss if I try it. If it is right, I can just go home. If not, then I can try another method.

I held the mirror in both hands, took a deep breath, and then said softly to the mirror: "If you are a holy object, please grant my wish. I want to go home and return to the original world."

It was so quiet that I could hear my breathing clearly.Time passed by second by second, and I gradually became calm from the nervousness at the beginning, but in the end, I was disappointed.After a long time, there was no response, and I knew that my wish could not be realized for the time being.

However, although the wish did not come true, I still can't be sure whether the mirror is a holy object, after all, it is so hidden and so special.

Or find another way.I put the mirror in my pocket and headed for the window.

Jumping out of the window, I was just about to close the sash and deal with the tape on the glass when I saw a person standing by the window, which made me exclaim in shock.

"Sorry to scare you." He said lightly.

After seeing that this person is the owner of the place, Sterling, my mood became more complicated.

Think about it, you are concentrating on stealing things. You thought you were invisible, but you never thought that the owner of the house was watching you quietly. When you were about to pat your ass and leave, you found that the owner of the house was guarding The exit awaits you.This situation is really bad.

My face was involuntarily hot, but I would not bow my head because of this matter, so I just turned my face away, with a posture of "what do you like".

He sighed softly, and asked in a low voice, "How many times have you rummaged through holy objects?"

I was stunned for a moment, and then I realized that since he had noticed me before I entered the mansion, it is not surprising that he would know about my previous rummaging.

He sighed again and said, "Let's go, jumping from the roof is too dangerous, let's go out through the main entrance." After speaking, he turned over and jumped into the attic first, then turned around and waited for me.

Now that I was caught, I decided to go all out, followed him into the attic without much hesitation, and followed him out through the main entrance.

The guard on the third floor was not surprised when he saw Sterling, but when he saw me behind him, he was obviously taken aback. He didn't know if it was because of my sudden appearance or because of my outfit.

After returning to Sterling's bedroom, he said while undressing: "I forgot to tell you that even if you get the relic, your wish will not come true without my consent."

I was so angry at his words that my throat choked.

I just said it can't be that simple!Otherwise, it would be impossible for their family to keep such a miraculous thing!Do you want to use the bloodline to open or summon something?Damn, I really can't wait to get some of his blood for a try right now!

"Don't think about it, I said, I will fulfill your wish when the time comes." As if he guessed what I was thinking, he looked back at me before going to bed and lying down.

I touched the small bronze mirror in my pocket, and decided to take it for myself!Unless he steals it from me, don't expect me to give it back to him!

After I took out the bronze mirror and glanced at him, I calmly put it under my pillow, then took off my clothes and climbed into bed, and slept peacefully on the pillow.

Hmph, if the bronze mirror disappears when I get up tomorrow morning, I will definitely make him look good!

***

Although I wanted to keep the small bronze mirror in my hand, when I found out that Sterling had no intention of going back, and didn't even care about it at all, I had to wonder if it was just an ordinary thing.

Two days later, I couldn't bear it any longer, so I took out the mirror while eating and asked him, "Aren't you planning to go back?"

He glanced at it, smiled and said, "Take it."

I stared at his expression for a while, then squinted my eyes involuntarily.Judging by his tone and expression, it's no wonder that this thing is a sacred object!

"Who cares about your broken things!" I threw the mirror in front of him casually, making a "dong" sound.

He raised his eyebrows slightly, and said in surprise: "You don't want it? To me, this is a very precious thing..." He said, and gave me a meaningful look.

Could it be... Just like the most dangerous place is the safest, he did this to cover up?

"It's okay to keep it for you for a while," I reached out and took the mirror back and put it in my pocket again, "but what good do I have?"

"I can kiss you," he said with a smile.

Normally, I would have scolded "Fuck off", but now I won't do that anymore.He took advantage of me in language, if I take over, he will make an inch of it.The best way is - I gave him a cold look, then lowered my head and ate my meal intently.

"There's no extra reward," he coughed lightly, and his tone returned to seriousness, "if it's not counting the wish and my willingness to treat you well."

No, no, I didn't expect anything at all.There are still more than two months, as long as I survive for more than two months, I can still go home, as long as he does not break his promise.
