The Original Vampire

Shortly after Knight Weber left, the study door was opened again.

Colin looked up and saw Vera, wearing a beige dress, walking in quietly.

“Colin, are you busy?”

“No, what’s the matter?”

Colin put down the quill, stood up and walked around the desk, put his arms around his sweet wife’s waist, and kissed her soft red lips gently.

Vera hugged her husband’s arm, her delicate nostrils trembling a few times, and asked doubtfully, “Why does it smell like blood?”

“I just taught a guy who kept talking, and I forgot to ask the maid to come and clean it up.”

“Oh.” Vera nodded, not paying attention, and then asked softly, “How are Prince Harrison and Princess Judy staying at Agate Manor?” ”

It’s good. The scenery there is beautiful, and you can ride horses. The two little guys still don’t want to come to Winter City.”

“That’s good.”

Seeing Vera’s hesitation, Colin asked with a smile: “Did you hear something?”

Vera nodded. Nodding, he said: “I heard some rumors, and Joyce came to me just now to cry.”

Colin chuckled, tightened his arm around Vera’s waist, and asked: “Then do you think Joyce has any evil intentions against Princess Judy?”

Vera bit her pink lips, hesitated for a moment, shook her head and said, “I wasn’t there, so I can’t make any judgments. But…” “But…”

“But What?”

Vera raised her head, looked at her husband seriously, and said, “But he is my brother after all, and I still hope that he can live his life in peace.”

Colin blinked and said with a smile: “Of course, I also hope that he can live his life peacefully like an ordinary nobleman.”

Colin can understand Vera’s concerns. After all, he is also her brother, even if he once competed with her for the northern territory. The Duke is now plotting evil plans in private, but with Vera’s character, she definitely doesn’t want to make things happen.

Therefore, Colin made his promise – not to hurt Joyce’s life.

Of course, he can’t expect any power in this life.

Vera understood the meaning of Colin’s words, then smiled sweetly and kissed him again.

Boom, boom, boom.

Just as Colin was enjoying Vera’s tenderness, there was an untimely knock on the door.

Colin asked angrily: “What’s the matter?”

The butler’s voice sounded outside the door: “Sir, madam, Earl Avon from the East and his fiancée Miss Salia came to see you.”

Colin sighed. , had to reply: “Please ask them to wait in the living room.”

“Yes.”

Vera broke away from Colin’s arms, with a blush on her pretty face, and asked while helping Colin adjust his collar:

“The two of them Why do people come to Winter City?”

“Salia is here to see his father, Prince Lehi. As for Earl Evan, haha.”

Before Vera could ask Colin why he sneered just now, she heard him continue Said: “Let’s go, let us entertain these two distinguished guests.”

…

“Earl Evan, Miss Salia, welcome to Lion’s Roar Castle!”

“Dear Duke St. Hilde, Angelet Earl, thank you for your warm reception. I hope our presumptuous visit did not bring you too much trouble.” ”

Of course not. Lion’s Roar Castle will always open its door to friendly friends.”

After a while of greetings, the four of them were divided into guests and hosts. After sitting down, the maid quickly brought coffee and desserts.

Colin’s eyes looked back and forth between Earl Evan and Salia, and then asked with a smile: “You two came to the north this time for Prince Lehi, right?”

Vera glanced at her husband. , a little surprised that he was so direct.

Salia didn’t seem to care about Colin’s slightly rude question, and nodded frankly, saying: “Yes, Lord Earl, I did follow my father’s footsteps to the north.

When I was the consul of Lattom , there were still great doubts about his death. I know it is difficult for you to believe my father’s innocence based on just one word, but he did come to the north with some clues this time.

So, if the St. Hilde family can help me confirm my father’s whereabouts, let me get in touch with him, and even help my father clear his name. Then I will be grateful for your kindness for the rest of my life!”

Vera’s beauty wrinkled slightly and she hesitantly said: “Miss Salia, for you, I am also sorry for what happened to my father. However, until there is conclusive evidence, I cannot use the power of the St. Hilde family to help you or your father.

After all, I cannot let the family’s reputation be damaged. I hope you can understand.”

Salia’s eyes dimmed.

Although she had already guessed the result, she couldn’t help but be disappointed.

However, she did not hold a grudge against Vera. After all, Prince Lehi was now charged with killing a consul, and no family was willing to publicly help.

Earl Evan gently patted the back of his fiancée’s hand under the table to express comfort. Just as he was about to speak, Colin suddenly said:

“Miss Salia, I just met Prince Leahy half a month ago.”

” Really? Where?” Salia raised her head in surprise and asked eagerly.

“It’s in Swan City.”

“Swan City?” Count Evan’s heart moved, and he immediately thought of the recent drastic changes in Swan City.

“Is father still in Swan City now?” Salia asked quickly. Judging from her impatient look, she was afraid that as soon as she got a positive answer from Colin, she would fly to Swan City immediately.

However, in Salia’s disappointed eyes, Colin slowly shook his head and said,

“He should be gone.”

“Then do you know where my father may be?” Salia asked tentatively. She didn’t hug him at first. There was too much hope, and with her understanding of her father, it was impossible to reveal her whereabouts to an unfamiliar person.

But unexpectedly, Colin nodded and said: “Prince Laich must have gone to Huayucheng.”

Salia’s face was happy, and she quickly said: “Really? It’s not that I don’t believe you, Count Angele, but Why did my father go to Huayu City?”

Colin said half-truthfully, “You must have heard about what happened in Swan City, right? Yes, in fact, Prince Leahy showed up in Swan City to investigate Bishop John. death.”

Hearing this, Earl Evan asked doubtfully, “Isn’t the death of Bishop John because of Lucien? How could His Highness go to Huayu City?”

“Lucien is indeed one of the accomplices, but the real mastermind is someone else.”

“Who is it?”

Colin took a sip of coffee and seemed a little hesitant about the question.

After hesitating for a moment, he said slowly: “I’m sorry, even I can’t confirm the identity of the real mastermind of this matter, so I can’t tell you yet.”

Earl Evan rolled his eyes and said: “Could this matter be related to the Morrison family?”

“Prince Leahy indeed has such speculation.” Colin decisively threw the blame.

Count Evan stared at Colin for a long time, but didn’t see any clues, so he asked tentatively: “Count Angelet, why is His Royal Highness so interested in the death of Bishop John?”

Colin shrugged. He shrugged and said, “I don’t know about that. Maybe he thinks this matter is related to the death of Archon Lattom.”

Earl Avon suddenly fell into deep thought.

In fact, he didn’t completely believe what Colin said, but he couldn’t figure out the other party’s intention.

Salia on the side couldn’t hold it any longer and quickly thanked you: “Count Angelet, thank you for providing this information. If you need help in the future, please feel free to ask!”

After saying this, this person Miss Salia, who was quite fickle in her work, immediately stood up and said goodbye to Vera and Colin.

Vera stayed with her for a few words, but there was no way Thalia could stay for a long time because she cared about her father. She immediately said goodbye and left the Roaring Castle.

Colin watched the two of them leave, and then arranged for two blood slaves to follow them quietly until their backs disappeared into the distance.

In fact, the reason he encouraged Shalia to go to Flower City was to use them to determine the whereabouts of Prince Lehi.

The prince should have arrived in Flower City a long time ago, but Colin’s eyes there didn’t detect any movement. He didn’t know whether Prince Laich had not found the mysterious basement, or whether the Morrison family had moved the blood pool in advance. place.

In short, Colin still doesn’t know what the prince is doing or where he is.

This always made him feel a little uneasy.

But it was impossible for him to send a blood slave to track a paladin, so he had to try to see if he could indirectly grasp Prince Lehi’s movements by tracking Salia.

Moreover, he specifically mentioned the death of Bishop John, and also wanted Earl Evan to take Salia to investigate the matter, preferably to catch Mr. Jin’s little tail.

If this could bring Prince Leahy and Mr. Jin to face each other again, then Colin would be extremely happy.

These two people are invisible bombs to the North, and Colin hopes that they will fight among themselves and die together.
