The red moon returns

Chapter 256 I asked her to drive

In the early morning of June 1399, 6, Lynch finished the dinner prepared by Miss Valente.

In fact, it is not rich, just a few slices of fried golden bacon, two tender and soft sunny-side-up eggs, a few slices of vegetables, and a few pieces of bread, that's all.

The taste was ordinary, nothing amazing, but for some reason, Lin Qi felt that he could not forget this taste. Especially under the dim gas light, the two of them sat side by side, enjoying their late dinner silently. Lynch believed that this picture would be firmly entrenched in a corner of his heart for a long, long time to come.

But for some reason, on the way back to the guest room, I always felt that countless cold and cruel eyes were staring at me from the darkness behind me, as if I was living in a haunted house.

Forget it, it's too scary, just don't do anything and go back to your room to sleep.

Unfortunately, it must have been because he had smoked too much soothing herbal medicine that Lynch couldn't sleep at all. Finally, he simply got up and read the ancient sheepskin book Black Fan Goddess several times. According to Ms. Luna, this will help you receive the death information contained in it and deepen your understanding of the power of death.

At dawn the next day, Lin Qi left someone else's house in someone else's carriage. When leaving, the old housekeeper and the male and female servants of the family lined up in two rows to see each other off. It looked quite grand, but he watched them one by one. With a fierce look on his face, he looked like he was going to beat you to death again. Lin Qi had every reason to suspect that he had been caught stealing food last night.

Hmm... It was stealing food in the literal sense. In addition, the reason for the haunted house was found.

After leaving Valente's house, we first took a detour to Earl Lorende's mansion not far away, where we had a secret chat with Princess Chloe for a while, and then stopped by Bessie's prop shop in the Crown District.

It seems that we have to start preparing for the next promotion. Let's first see when Countess Hathaway can send her neighbor's memories, and then see which evil god will have bad luck.

When Lin Qi realized the sequelae of reading, he had already understood it and could not forget it. Lin Qi was so angry that he kept beating and cursing in his head.

Quite exhausted indeed.

Using his last will to stay awake, Lynch retracted the dangerous items into the safe, then threw himself into the bedroom and fell asleep with a smile.

However, the only thing that made Lynch feel dissatisfied was that he actually understood a secret method, the first secret method he mastered.

But now that the matter has come to this, he can only accept his fate. At worst, he can just not use it in the future. Even if I am attracted to mystery, it is impossible to force me to use this thing.

Okay, okay, I know you're peeping.

I didn't go home for two nights, and the first thing I saw when I walked in was Mrs. Maggie's surprised smiling face.

【hehe. 】

Um? Is there something wrong? Forget it, just pretend it's all right.

I didn't feel it when it happened, but after everything was over and I returned to my familiar nest, a feeling of physical and mental exhaustion immediately spread throughout my body.

But the most important thing is the ability to veto death, which makes Lynch feel like he is in a dream. This thing is more useful than the ability to destroy the cauldron in a certain game. It takes effect automatically, which is equivalent to giving yourself countless extra lives out of thin air. Coupled with the double improvement of death coil on melee and long-range combat, it can be said that my combat effectiveness has made a leap. Finally, I have He looks like a powerful second-level soul-shifter.

Fortunately, his work was not in vain. The Black Fan Goddess he brought back not only gave him more than four death-related abilities, meeting the requirements for promotion to the next level, but also made him understand death more thoroughly, especially in the wilderness. When he first saw the corpses scattered all over the mountains and plains, he felt closer to death than ever before. Lynch even felt that if he was allowed to witness it a few more times, he might be able to understand one or two abilities under the power of death.

Next time I'll try my hand at Prince William and the Rangers, and the mysterious enemy who dared to burn down my house.

Hmm...Swollen Daughter's Contact Technique.

Looking at the small living room and bedroom, Lin Qi actually felt a sense of intimacy that he had not seen for a long time. Every move in the mansion where he lived in the past two days had been attended to by someone, but now when he returned to his simple and small apartment, Lin Qi felt extremely relaxed.

After being busy until almost noon, Lin Qi returned to his apartment exhausted both physically and mentally.

It can be used anytime and anywhere. Its only function is to allow you to communicate directly with the swollen daughter.

Since Mr. Louis, the butler, had previously asked the housekeeper to deliver the letter in person and greeted Mrs. Maggie, the beautiful landlady was not too worried. She only thoughtfully helped Lynch put away his coat and hat, and happily made tea for him.

In the past three days, they first battled wits with Princess Chloe and Count Lorende, then tracked and killed the deep diver Alice and the others in the sunken ship, then went deep into the enemy's lair to cheat the gems back, and finally ran to the territory of the evil god. Fight head-on with the Swollen Daughter.

Especially when you take a hot bath, put on your pajamas and slippers, sit on a familiar fabric sofa, and put your feet up on the coffee table to stretch your body, the comfort that comes from the bottom of your heart cannot be compared to any luxury house. Especially after taking a few sips of the black tea brewed by Mrs. Maggie herself, the fatigue accumulated in the past few days soon came back.

He was sleeping so deeply that he didn't even know Mrs. Maggie came in secretly and took away her shirt and pants to clean.

When I woke up again, it was still bright, but it was already the morning of the 14th.

The familiar noise of Charles Square made Lynch curl up his lips and stretch. Lynch finally recovered from his fatigue.

In fact, if he hadn't had a date with someone today, Lin Qi would have wanted to sleep another day. After all, life without having to get up early to go to work and go to school is so monotonous.

I really envy those social animals who have reason to get up early. I am so envious that I can’t close my mouth from ear to ear.

Wear clothes that have been tumble-dried and ironed, and bring all your gear, especially that little bag. Opening it, a red light immediately illuminated Lynch's face.

Flaming red lips, the real thing.

This thing needs to be put away, we will still be counting on it later.

Lin Qi smiled strangely, tied the bag again, hid the gem close to his body, then picked up his cane and walked down the stairs.

"Wow, Uncle Lynch, long time no see. I haven't seen you since your leg healed. You don't even play with me anymore." Little Martha hadn't gone to school yet, but her eyes lit up when she saw Lin Qi, and she was very happy. He rushed over and hung it on Lin Qi's leg, "When will it break again? I still want to paint, oops."

If you are really good at talking, I would like to give you two slaps.

The little bastard got two slaps as he wished, and he immediately took Lynch's hand and sat at the dining table with satisfaction. This little thing was getting more and more clingy. However, I asked someone in Charles Square a few days ago that the group of 'Kings District kids' have indeed restrained themselves a lot and rarely commit crimes now, which surprised everyone.

"Here you go." Lynch took out two one-pound notes, thought about it, and then changed them into four ten-shilling coins. "You still remember my black uniform, the Ranger uniform."

"Ah."

"Have your people keep an eye on several nearby blocks in the past few days. If you find anyone wearing that kind of clothes peeking around, notify me as soon as possible."

"Okay." The little guy put the money into his pocket and stared at Lin Qi with his blue eyes, "Is it dangerous?"

"Not for you, but you are proud of being beaten." Lynch stood up and took the breakfast and coffee brought by Mrs. Maggie. He took a big bite and felt quite fulfilled. "Is there any news these days? From your sister Maya I heard it from over there.”

"No, it's all normal."

Little Martha's answer made Lynch a little disappointed. It seemed that the Rangers used some method to appease the Deep Diver Pirate Davis and did not expose their collusion with each other. It's a pity, I still want to see them dog bite dog. Just as she was feeling regretful, she heard Martha continue:
"There is a princess who is going to have a cocktail party again. It will be published in the newspaper today. These rich people are so disgusting. They just have cocktail parties when they have nothing to do. I don't know what they are doing by having so many cocktail parties. It's so annoying."

"I know, it was held just to invite me to participate."

"Hahahaha, Uncle Lynch, you are so brave. The princess invites you to the cocktail party. Hahaha, the governor also invited me to attend."

Bang bang bang.

Cheerful laughter was still echoing in the restaurant, and a knock suddenly sounded from the door.

The little guy ran to open the door, leaving only Lynch and Mrs. Maggie facing each other in the restaurant.

"Don't be angry with her. She didn't mean to laugh at you. She also knows that you are really good to her and are teasing her and joking with you."

Seeing the blond landlady talking softly with a soft smile, Lin Qi felt warm in her heart and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I don't hate children who know their mistakes and can correct them. This little thing is slowly learning to be sensible now." ”

"Yes." Mrs. Maggie wiped her eyes and nodded vigorously, "I really want to thank you. If it weren't for you, I really can't imagine what would happen in the future. I will ask you again in the future..."

"what?"

Before Mrs. Maggie finished speaking, Martha's surprised voice came from the door. When she turned around, she saw the little thing coming back holding an envelope with a dull look on his face.

"What's wrong?" Mrs. Maggie came forward worriedly, looked around repeatedly, and then felt relieved after confirming that her daughter was fine.

"The invitation letter... is from Uncle Lynch." Little Martha looked at Lynch's expression as if she had met the goddess of the night she believed in. "The princess invites you to attend the reception on the evening of the 17th. The butler of the Earl's Palace personally sent it. "

"Throw it on the porch for me. I know this, so there's no need to read it." Lynch said casually, "I'm going out later, so I won't put it upstairs. It's not an important thing anyway."

"Oh..." The little guy glanced at Lin Qi, carefully placed the invitation letter on the shoe cabinet, and suddenly stuck out his tongue at Lin Qi angrily, then ran back to Lin Qi, shaking his arms and asked , "Uncle Lynch, why did the princess invite you? She also held this cocktail party just to invite you."

"I asked her to drive it. She asked me to find something. I found it for her, so I used this reception to hand it to her in a high-profile way."

"Then you said you were going out soon, are you also going to see her?"

"That's not true. It's enough to meet at the cocktail party. There is no need to meet in advance." Lynch had already finished breakfast and stood up to pat the little thing on the head. "Do you still remember the old lady who often came to treat me a few days ago? Mrs. Nightingale.”

"Ah."

"I'm going to find her, and it's time to repay the debt I owe her."
