rose nursery rhyme

Everyone in the room looked at the same place in silence, and to be honest, the scene was a little scary.

But Sidi didn't care about this little thing at all.

He shook the lord's head at the crowd again, fearing that they might not be able to see clearly, he fiddled with it specially, turning that blue and white face in mid-air, making sure that everyone who looked up could recognize him What are you holding in your hand.

The lord's skin is loose and his expression is not very good-looking.

A few people who were in a reasonable state of mind gradually focused their eyes. When they saw the head, they uttered a hoarse cry in horror, and shrank back, making the thin chains wrapped around them jingle.

Xidi: "I see, you all know this person, right?"

More than recognition, the lord's face is simply a nightmare for them. The resistance from the heart is so real that many people don't even realize for a while that the thing in front of them is just a head.

Several people lowered their eyes in fear.

Xidi ignored them and kept talking: "His body is still outside, leaning against the wall, very conspicuous, anyone who passes by can see it."

It was a bit tiring to hold something in his hand and talk, so Xidi temporarily hung the lord's head on a shelf of unknown use next to it, and started circling the room, pinching off the ankles of the canaries one by one with his bare hands. Attached to the chain on the wall, he said in an orderly manner: "I did some tricks in the rose garden. After 10 minutes, those beautiful roses will be lifted up by their roots..."

"Someone should know what's buried in the garden?" said the young man. "Those bones will escalate the chaos. The guests who came to the ball today have a lot of influence, so they can probably help me delay it for a while, but in the end, if you really If you want to escape, you have to move faster."

Before Sidi killed the lord, the lord called the guards.The guards don't know when they will come here.

If it is really delayed until then, things will be troublesome.

"When I came, I opened the side door of the castle and cleared the obstacles on the road. At least now, that road is safe."

Xi Di cut off all the chains on the wall, and glanced at the several 'canaries' nailed to the wall with his arms outstretched.

They all have one thing in common - extraordinarily fragile, extraordinarily dilapidated, and extraordinarily beautiful.

Perhaps they were works that the lord was particularly fond of during his lifetime.

The poor birds hung their heads and their chests still heaved slightly, but they were clearly hopeless, even if Sheedy moved them out of the rose garden one by one now.

Sidi calmly looked away.

If you can't save them, you can't save them. The guards in the manor are not dead. Whether they are cured or buried, these... birds will always have a home.

No matter where you end up, it's better than being nailed to a wall.

Xidi explained the current situation simply and quickly, and then concluded: "Can you stand up? If you can't stand up, I can't help it. I just opened a door. Other than that, I won't help anyone."

When he said the side door, several people had already started supporting the wall and trying to stand up.Most of the people were still sitting in a daze, staring at Xi Di blankly, as if they had lost the ability to think.

Sidi stopped talking nonsense.

It is useless to persuade, he has already seen that many people will never walk out of this door.

"You have 15 minutes to control your own destiny. As for whether you can escape, it all depends on you."

He plucked the lord's head from its rack, and added: "Don't be thankful, I didn't kill him to save you."

The young man showed a bit of elegance when he was concentrating and speaking clearly, and he couldn't see the presumptuous energy when he tore the lord outside with his hands just now.Even though he said such words, he appeared to be more obedient, like a beautiful kitten with round eyes.

Sidi: "Goodbye then, and good luck."

He put the hand that was not holding his head on his chest, and gave a dangling and unruly aristocratic salute to the miserable canaries in the room.

Then he took two light steps back and disappeared into the dark corridor.

****

The corridor was temporarily empty. Maybe the guards didn't hear the lord's call, or maybe the castle was too big, and it took time to get here.

After all, what the lord is doing here is quite shameful, maybe he specifically ordered no one to approach this corridor.If so, it would be some time before his grisly body was discovered.

Sidi carried the lord's head through the oil painting, and took another look at the stairs leading to the top floor.

Behind him, the liberated 'canaries' have begun to rustle. After a while, the birds that have left the cage will stumble out of the castle and cause a stir in the rose garden. Lots of panic.

The assassination of the lord is a big event. When the guards of the entire castle surround him, even Xidi will have to spend a lot of effort to escape from them.

Time is tight, and if you delay it for a while, you will be in danger of being discovered.

But Sidi didn't want to leave yet, he still had something to do in the castle.

What if it is found out?

No idea, Sidi didn't bother to think about the consequences.

Without even hesitating, he turned around and walked briskly through another corridor and up the stairs leading to the top floor of the castle.

Although this is the facade, it is only the front part of the castle, and it is not very huge. It didn't take long for Sidi to walk from the bottom corner to the top, and she didn't meet anyone else.

The castle was also quiet.

This is a bit strange - this is a large building, and it takes a lot of time and energy to maintain it, and the owner also needs to serve. In theory, every corner of the castle should have a servant standing by at all times.

But no, Xidi's journey went unbelievably smoothly.

...until he finally reached the topmost floor of the castle.

"Good day."

The bard who was supposed to be in the rose garden leaned against the wall, as if he was waiting for him, and when he saw Xidi emerging from the stairs, he greeted Xidi peacefully: "Your Excellency, we meet again. "

He was still wearing the long cloak, and he was much taller than Sidi when he stood upright. The hood covered most of his face. Looking at the blood-stained honor of the young man, he said with a smile in his voice, "It seems that you Just had a good time."

Xi Di: "..."

He reacted quickly, and immediately jumped two steps to the side, like a small animal with fried hair, his back was slightly arched, and one hand was hooked into a claw shape by his side, just waiting for the opponent to get into trouble, he would use the method he used to deal with the lord just now, Push him straight into the ground.

When did he come up?Why is he here?Why... Sidi didn't even notice his presence until he made a sound himself?

Xi Di was born with an extremely sensitive intuition, he knew that the musician had no intention of killing him, otherwise he was not sure if he could keep calm now.

But calmness and vigilance are two different things. I don't know if the other party is an enemy or a friend... In short, it is obviously impossible to be just an ordinary musician.

He even carried the rose that Xidi gave him, which was fixed by something, and the petals were even more fragmented. After all, they had not fallen apart, falling dangerously, and were so red as hell.

Sidi hunched over and waited for a while, and the bard just smiled at him for a while without moving.

Seeing that the bard didn't intend to do anything, Xidi also slowly put away the hedgehog-like hostility on her body, and complained unhappyly: "You scared me."

The voice was sweet, but I couldn't tell that the child was still thinking about how to twist the head of the man opposite him for a second.

The bard chuckled, "Sorry."

He seemed to find Xidi's reaction amused, and he didn't find the young man's defensive posture offensive: "I just guessed that you would come here, so I came up to take a look, and I didn't expect to scare you..."

"My name is Bryce." The bard nodded gracefully to Xidi, "It's a pleasure to see you again, Your Excellency Xidi."

The other party was very polite, and Xi Di followed suit in a messy manner, but she never took her eyes off Bryce: "You came to find me?"

I also waited here specially, knowing something at a glance.

"Yes." Brice sighed, and replied sadly, "I followed your suggestion and left the rose garden for a walk... Unfortunately, I didn't go far enough. I still saw what I should see."

There was only one thing going on in the rose garden at this hour.

——The things Xidi arranged took effect, blowing up the bones of the lord buried in the flowers, and the scene would definitely not be very beautiful.

Xidi held the lord's head: "So?"

Brace: "I'm a little scared, so I came to you."

Xi Di: "..."

A good boy should not swear.

Xidi's voice was soft: "You fart."

It's okay, although it's a dirty word, he used honorifics.

Bryce was amused by him again.

"He was originally my target." He stopped teasing the angry pretty boy, gestured to the head in his hand, and explained gently, "I also accepted that mission, but unfortunately you preempted it."

The big list will be updated synchronously on the bounty lists in various places, and everyone can complete it according to their ability.Xi Di appeared here so soon only because he happened to be very close to the castle, so it is not unusual to meet his colleagues at this time.

No wonder he thought the musician was unusual when he was in the rose garden, so it was.

Since he is a colleague, the reason why he will appear in front of him at this time...

Xidi stared at him vigilantly, hid the head in her hand, and said firmly, "I'm short of money, so I won't give it."

"I know." Brice smiled, "This is your prey, and I will not fight with you."

"Money rewards are nothing to me." He said in a gentle tone, "I was just curious and wanted to go into the lord's secret room, but now I found something more interesting, and of course I'm not interested in the lord's personal privacy gone."

But having said that, he still asked: "Did you go in and take a look? How is it?"

That mess behind the painting?

Xidi curled her lips in dissatisfaction, and lifted the lord's head up a bit.

Sheedy: "Nothing to see."

Thinking of the quagmire-like scene, he simply concluded the lord's personal preferences: "Let me tell you, this person's aesthetics are very low-level."

Fortunately, he was still looking forward to it, which was a waste of emotion.

Bruce laughed lightly.

Sidi: "What are you laughing at?"

"It's nothing." Brice lifted the hood of his cloak, and finally exposed his appearance to Xidi. "I just didn't expect to hear such an evaluation, and I was a little surprised."

The author says:

Sheedy, what a polite boy.
