Tonight the palace is immersed in the rain.

There was a knock on the door, followed by a maid's voice, "Your Royal Highness, the Crown Prince is back."

Yu Yuan pushed open the door, and what he saw was Durand, who seemed to have braved the wind and rain to come through the night, his whole body was completely soaked, the rain dripped down his golden hair, he was so embarrassed that he didn't look like a crown prince at all. Instead, it looks like a person who fell into the water has just been picked up.

The maid Anne retreated knowingly, Yu Yuan locked the door and immediately lit the fire in the fireplace, Durand sat beside him to keep warm, and he went back to the room to find a new towel to cover the little prince.

"Why did you come to me without even changing your clothes?" Yu Yuan knew that the little prince was anxious to see him, but he still couldn't help frowning, "You came back in the rain after walking so far."

Since he sat down, Durand has been like a clockwork machine with its core removed, motionless, and he didn't even say a word when he entered the door, as if just walking here had exhausted all his strength.Yu Yuan sighed, looking at the little prince as if he was looking at a boy who was sad because he was blamed, he had no choice but to pick up a dry towel and come up to him to wipe his wet hair. Wrapping the two of them in this small orange light ball in a dark room is like a fairytale scene.

It was raining outside the window, and the rain always seemed to be associated with some kind of sad emotion, and it also pushed those who gathered in a corner under the majesty of the heavy rain closer.

"I know you're worried about me, but it's not advisable for you to rush into the forest, and you've come back overnight, have you rested, huh?" Yu Yuan dried the hair of the "flooded golden retriever" and then I got up and wanted to get some tea, but at this moment, the person who had been silent all this time grabbed the palm of my hand.

If Durand looked like he survived after drowning, then when he heard that Edith had been in an accident and returned safely, it was the whole process from drowning to landing.

A state of worrying about gains and losses.

Yu Yuan had no choice but to show his patience to coax the child again, "Keep here for a while and wait for me, I'll be right back."

As if he was afraid that Durand would really think that he would disappear again, Yu Yuan was careful not to close any doors when he walked in, so that people outside could always see the wall lamps inside being lit one by one, You can also vaguely see his back.

Warm black tea was boiling in the pot on the small stove, and this pot was actually the only clean one left by Yu Yuan when he was trying to refine medicine during the day.There is actually nothing else in the room, Yu Yuan went inside just to secretly buy ready-made ones directly from the game store.

"Is sweets useful? Will eating some snacks make him feel better?" Yu Yuan was really worried about the little prince's growth.

Lin Ling: "Believe it or not, he is willing to take poison as long as it is given by you."

While browsing the dim sum page of the game store, Yu Yuan discussed with Lin Ling what to buy, "[Steaming bear biscuit], if this is really hot, will the little prince feel strange, thinking that I baked it in the room of?"

He wants to buy some normal food, but most of the food available in the mall is [Slime Jelly] with eight flavors to choose from, [Dried Lizard Tail] that restores mana, and [Ghost Jelly] that will flow out plasma-like red berry juice after being cut in half. [Berry Pie] screams when you poke it [Roaring Little Cake] and other very magical things.

In contrast, for players, small prop biscuits that can increase the proportion of experience gained on the way to level up are the most normal things here.

"Don't worry, it's nothing strange to be steaming, the little prince is in this state, even if you poison him, he won't be able to eat it."

Yu Yuan poured the brewed black tea into the teapot, and served it out together with the biscuits that cost 5 gold coins in the mall.

During the short period of time he left, Durand seemed to have not moved at all, and his whole body was like a statue.

Yu Yuan poured him a cup of black tea before he heard the other party call out hoarsely, "Edith."

"Ok?"

Yu Yuan picked up the cup and took a sip of his own cup. The black tea still didn't take long enough to boil, and a lot of tea stems were still mixed in the bottom of the cup. He was thinking about how to save the tea, but Durand obviously thought is more important.

The young crown prince hesitated for a moment before asking, "How did you come back?"

Yu Yuan was about to confess that he was helped by a monster, but at this moment, there was another knock on the door.

This time it was the maid Nancy, "Your Highness, have you rested?"

"What's the matter?" He subconsciously glanced at the door.

"His Royal Highness asked if I could see you now?"

As if to confirm Nancy's words, another gentle male voice sounded, "Edith, it's me."

One word at a time, Durand's voice.

Yu Yuan's eyes showed horror, he turned his head stiffly, and looked at the "Durand" sitting on the carpet with him in front of him.

And the person in front of him, who didn't look half embarrassed just now, seemed to have changed his face suddenly, was smiling and waving his fingers at him, as if saying "Surprise?".

It's a fucking octopus costume.

Yu Yuan almost didn't utter a curse word.

At this moment, the first thing he thought of was a horror story, probably about a man coming home and seeing two of his own mothers, each telling him that the other was fake, and the protagonist of the story couldn’t tell who was real and who was fake ——As for himself, the only lucky thing is that once the "fake" in front of him is exposed, he has no intention of continuing to pretend.

"Wait a minute first!" Yu Yuan could only bite the bullet and yell towards the door, then turned his head and asked the fake in front of him aggressively, "XX, you pretended to be addicted to Durand once, not enough twice, twice not enough three times, this XX is complete After all, you still like acting and want to do a full set?!"

From the beginning, this person appeared at the door in a suit of water, and now he pretended to be disappointed and asked him how he came back.And wanting to comfort the other party, he even spent 5 gold coins at his own expense to buy game props biscuits, but it turned out to be a fake!

"Hush——" Louis, who was forced to take off his vest, still maintained his original appearance. Instead of being anxious, he reminded the queen to lower his voice, "You don't want to be heard, do you? Then be more careful."

Of course Yu Yuan didn't want the people outside the door to hear it. Even if he had eight mouths, he still couldn't explain why there was "another Durand" in his room. Go out, change your face so that no one can see you."

The only thing he is thankful for now is that he locked the door. Even since the last time he hid two people in one room, he has developed the habit of locking the door when he enters it. He really doesn't know how to evaluate it...

But for the queen's order, Louis obviously didn't have any intention of obeying, "I won't go."

Grass, if you don't leave, you're going to buy a fucking house here, right? !

The people outside the door had been waiting for a long time, Yu Yuan even felt that he had heard Nancy's voice urging Durand not to come back tomorrow, but Yu Yuan has been in the game as a player for so long, and he also knows what Durand's character attributes are like, especially this It was the first meeting after Qiu Lie's accident, and Yu Yuan could almost imagine the real Durand's expression at this time, probably not much different from the fake one.

"What do you want to do?" He could only try to communicate with Louis to persuade him to leave, "Can we meet again later if there is something to do?"

But Louis seemed determined, and had other thoughts, "Tonight is tonight."

Yu Yuan almost wanted to give him a staff.

Why do you sound like a powerful monster boss do such a shameless thing like refusing to leave other people's homes at night.

"Lin Ling, how far is the difference in strength between me and him? Is it feasible to make a surprise attack, as long as you can knock him out."

As long as the monster is stunned and dragged to the bottom of the bed, it can be temporarily fooled tonight. The most important thing is not to let others see it, especially the outrageous scene where the "two Durands" meet.It is impossible for him to ask outsiders for help. After all, he is a monster, an existence that everyone in this kingdom has changed and needs to be hidden.Although Louis's attitude is still good now, if someone else appears, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not hurt others, and it is even hard to say whether there is any opponent for him in the entire palace.

"Have you forgotten the conversion formula of 'one louis equals two tips equals six you'?" Lin Ling ruthlessly exposed the reality, "You two are absolutely not comparable in frontal strength, as for sneak attacks... Not too optimistic."

However, when Yu Yuan saw that Lu Yifei had no intention of leaving, he took a sip from his teacup and commented, "Your craftsmanship is not very good", with a look of "If I don't leave, you go and drive others away", Finally, there is a murderous intention.

Of course, he also respects objective strength, so this kind of murderous intention is at best to knock the opponent unconscious and see if it is possible to make up the knife.

He purposely sighed in embarrassment, and shouted out of the door under Lu Yi's smiling gaze: "I'm not feeling well today, come back tomorrow."

Nancy responded, followed by what seemed to be footsteps, and fell silent again.

"It's alright." Yu Yuan looked at the person in front of him with an unkind expression, but he was already quietly preparing to take out the staff from the game backpack.

To a certain extent, physical attacks may be more effective than magical attacks against opponents whose strength is too far apart!

"Of course, I am very satisfied."

"Did you come here tonight just to let me see your 'original appearance'?" Although Yu Yuan had a lot of expectations for the octopus before, he never thought that the reunion would be in this form.

"How is it possible, I..."

There was a sharp piercing sound——

At the same time when Yu Yuan's heart uttered "Give me dizzy!", almost in the next second——

Louis caught the staff with one hand.

"..." If this is a keyboard online game, there will probably be a prompt of [Attack MISS].

The sneak attack was easily resolved by the opponent.

Yu Yuan couldn't help remembering that he first used this trick on a certain blood race NPC. At that time, he hit it but didn't hurt him, but this time...

"Is it because I haven't seen you for so long, I don't know that you have switched to this attack method now?" Louis easily pushed the wooden staff away, "If you forget, I can help you remember."

But at this moment, there was a rustling sound from the door lock.

At this moment, Yu Yuan quickly realized that Durand outside was using a key to open the lock.

The departure just now was not leaving at all, but just looking for other ways to come in!

Yu Yuan immediately grabbed Louis' hand and wanted to take him to the inner room to let him hide under the bed, but Louis restrained him with his backhand, and said with a half-smile: "It's useless to me, I'll talk to 'them' Not the same."

With his toes, he could think of what this octopus man was alluding to, but Yu Yuan didn't have time to be shocked or ask how the other party knew, because the door was about to be opened—even though he put on a double lock for safety, he locked the door for no reason and then locked it again. People outside must have heard some of the commotion now.It's just an ordinary door, and I don't know how many ways to open it.

"What on earth do you want to do?" His sharp eyes were like a knife slashing at Louis's body. At this critical moment, Yu Yuan could only warn in a low voice: "Never let others see you here!"

The face is exactly the same as that of the real crown prince, and the exact shape seems to be carved out of the same mold and then polished. Anyone who sees this scene will realize that the fake one is a monster. It can be seen from the beginning that the maid's "position" belongs to Fernando's side.

As long as it is exposed, there will be endless troubles.

"Don't worry, dear." Louis said in a charming tone as if whispering to his lover before saying goodbye: "All the things you worry about will not happen."

"Edith, are you all right?"

"Your Highness, please open the door first."

The keen-natured Durand had already discovered something was wrong, not to mention there was a crucial piece of evidence: he and the queen hadn't been able to meet for a few days after Autumn Hunting and parting ways. Back on the way, these queens must have known about it, otherwise he wouldn't have knocked on the door in the middle of the night in a rude manner, just to make sure that the other party is really all right now.

There was no response from the door.

The key Nancy brought could only open the first lock, and there was no other way to open the second lock unless it was opened from the inside. Durand considered breaking the door violently, but the situation inside was unclear.After thinking about it, he could only lower his voice and say to Nancy: "You go and invite people from the Knights to come. They will gather downstairs and go in through the outside window, and let a few guard the gate. Hurry up."

Nancy quickly ran out with her skirt.

Durand, who stayed behind, walked around the door twice, and finally said helplessly, "If you really have rested, then I'll go first, see you tomorrow morning."

The sound of footsteps seemed to disappear from the door again, but in fact he just reached the corner of the nearest corridor, and he could be the first to notice if there was any big movement in the room.

Yu Yuan pretended that everything had calmed down, and immediately ordered Louis: "No matter what your plans are, you must leave now."

But Louis just dawdled on the corner of his lips, stained a little lipstick color, and said unhurriedly: "There are still people, and more people will come soon."

Hearing this, Yu Yuan's eyes widened immediately. The more people came, the greater the danger of the octopus man's identity being exposed as a monster. Now he can't wait to compress him into a ball and throw him out of the window.

"Can't you transform yourself, can you go out the window in a smaller size?" Yu Yuan had a new idea, "Or can you turn into a maid and go out the door?"

"Honey, I just want to become what you are interested in." Louis smiled dangerously.

"I like birds, can you turn into a little bird and flap your wings away from the window now." If eyes can kill, Yu Yuan should have killed this monster two hundred times by now.

However, what Louis said was very high-sounding, and he emphasized again: "I said, I will not leave tonight."

As if he was in his own home, Louis, who still wore Durand's appearance, simply sat down on the sofa, poured a new cup of black tea, and twisted a small biscuit in his hand to play with, "You don't need anything Don't worry, if you're tired, you can lie on the bed and sleep right now."

"..." You really settled down here with me!

I also want to know what new arrangements Durand should be making during the quiet time now. If Fernando or someone else is called again, it will only become more and more chaotic.No matter how hard he tried to persuade him, Yu Yuan could only talk to Lin Ling again, "Brother, is there any way?"

Lin Ling was also very helpless, "You can't beat him, and no one can beat him. Judging from the current situation, no one can stop him from doing whatever he wants."

"...Is it really that strong?"

When he was in the forest the first time, he thought that the black wolf, who was already quite powerful and one of the best in the wolf clan and second to the leader of the clan, warned him for the first time that this "smell of sea" monster was dangerous. Yu Yuan himself said that he hasn't smelled any sea water until now, it is probably the racial talent of beasts.

The second time was a showdown with Fernando and mentioned the existence of Louis. Fernando's first reaction was that this monster was very strong, and he warned him to stay away.In fact, Yu Yuan has already begun to wonder if he lived in the room that Fernando forced him to move to tonight, would the situation be different now.At the same time, Lin Ling, who was supposed to conceal the plot, also frankly provided him with this information, that is, how strong this Louis is.

But until now, Yu Yuan himself has not witnessed it. In his opinion, Louis seems to be just constantly changing his appearance, appearing with different identities and different faces. About his real strength, it only comes from other people's narratives.

Lin Ling explained: "Let me tell you this, he is the biggest BOSS in this dungeon, he should have appeared at the climax to the end, but now I don't know why he appeared a long time earlier, maybe you did it in the plot What affected him. In short, I can't spoil too much, I can only tell you that it's best not to let him kill the little prince, otherwise your game will directly determine the ending of BE."

Yu Yuan rubbed his hair a little irritably, sat down on the sofa in despair, stared at Louis, and said in a vicious tone: "Aren't you afraid that someone in the palace will threaten you? You are a monster."

It's not a very useful threat, it can only be used as a cliché.

Hearing this, Louis stretched out his arms on the sofa instead, with a very relaxed look, "Who are you talking about? Your new king, or your favorite crown prince, or the one who is always loyal to you Commander of the Knights?"

The tone of indifference, as if these people together couldn't threaten him even an iota.

"Then why did you show up tonight?" Yu Yuan could only turn the topic back to the original question, "It's impossible for you to come here just to pretend to be Durand, right?"

With the ability of this person in front of him, Yu Yuan doubts very much whether he specially picked the right time for Durand to come back soon, and then pretended to be Durand and arrived one step ahead of time, just to create the current situation——no, it is almost certain, No one does things just for "fun" for no reason.

Louis blinked, "If I said, I only appeared like this to meet you, would you feel a little touched?"

Not only would he not, but he even wanted to hit someone more.

There seemed to be movement from downstairs outside the window, and Yu Yuan realized almost immediately that Durand had found a way to get in through the window.This is the second floor, and the difficulty of operation is actually very low.

"Why exactly?" he asked again.

"As I said, someone broke the terms of the deal—like your new king."

As soon as the words fell, in front of Yu Yuan, all this happened almost instantly.Louie's body seemed to melt for a second, then...

He became like Fernando.

Louie smiled and asked like a kid begging for candy, "Do you like this look?"

Yu Yuan: "???"
