"Hey, don't be fooled by the smell of food, Meimei!" Isabella shook the little girl's shoulders.
I remember the afternoon before yesterday, a certain lady brought some homemade cookies to share with everyone... Isabella got a few too, and they were sweet, dense, and melt-in-your-mouth, yet still crispy...
Well, I'll find a chance to ask her for the recipe next time, and then bake it for Lor when he comes back.
It’s not because I really want to cook for him, but mainly because Lor is really worldly-wise, and I have to let him taste what a truly high-end dessert tastes like!
At the same time, Meimei had already come to the table in the corner of the classroom.
"Found it, Sister Isabella!" Meimei pointed to a seat and said with certainty, "The smell of bad guys is coming from here!"
really.
Isabella's heart sank.
This was the seat where she and the woman who called herself "Catherine" often sat.
Come to think of it, this woman is indeed suspicious... She just happened to sign up for the Home Economics class on the same day as me, and she's almost always there when I come to class. She even often goes for afternoon tea with me after class... Come to think of it, even the name "Catherine" must be fake.
Damn it, I was so careless!
Miss Kuiben thought she had made a friend!
This girl clearly approached me to gather intelligence! And I was completely defenseless and told her everything about Lor and me!
The eldest lady was angry and annoyed, and stomped hard on the floor with her little feet wrapped in exquisite leather shoes.
"Unfortunately, you guys still miscalculated." She narrowed her eyes and thought, "Now that the truth has been revealed, the initiative will shift to me."
In order to avoid alerting the enemy, Isabella decided to pretend to be unaware for the time being and go to "Mrs. Marty's Home Economics Classroom" as usual.
But just in case, she brought Meimei along.
The opponent was a high-ranking vampire whose strength should not be underestimated. Only by bringing Meimei with him could he protect her. Anyway, other wives would occasionally bring their children to class, so it was nothing strange.
Then, I just have to wait quietly for "Catherine" to appear... If nothing unexpected happens, she will still come to this classroom today and sit next to me.
Humph, as long as she dares to come, I will naturally find a way to pry open her mouth.
Let her honestly confess all the information about the "master" behind her!
At this moment, Isabella suddenly heard a thunderous gurgling sound coming from beside her.
It came from Meimei's belly.
"Come to think of it, we haven't had breakfast yet." Isabella glanced at the sky outside the window. "The bakery should be open by now, right? Let's go get some chocolate chip butter cookies! Hehe, we just went to the church to get some money yesterday, so we can eat our fill... Don't tell Lor!"
……
In the guest room of a luxury hotel in the eastern district of Gordon City.
"My 'little sister' seems to be particularly diligent today... She's already heading to the home economics classroom at the crack of dawn? It's still early for class, right?"
Emmett, an eighth-level vampire, stood by the window, looking at the rising sun in the east and stretched slightly.
He had a strong sense of his own kind, with a range of about 1.5 kilometers, much higher than Isabella's. Therefore, he had been fully aware of Isabella's location and movements over the past few days.
In addition, the location of the hotel where he is currently staying is also very particular.
This place is at a perfect distance from "15 Oak Street" and "Mrs. Marty's Home Economics Classroom". As long as Emmett stays in the room, his perception range can cover a large part of Isabella's daily activity area.
Of course, once Emmett realized that Isabella was about to leave his perception range, or noticed that she was approaching him and might perceive him in reverse, he still had to move.
"Honestly, it's quite exhausting... and she's messed up my body clock!" Emmett shrugged and complained, "Whether by vampire or human standards, my little sister's sleep schedule is too unhealthy. What vampire would go to bed in the middle of the night? And what human would get up at noon?"
"If you're tired, let's switch gears," Liana, the family member, said expressionlessly. "I'll stay in the hotel room, sipping wine, reading, and monitoring Isabella the Blessed. You'll go to the home economics classroom, learn how to do housework, take care of children, and gather intelligence on the church's exorcist, Lor..."
"I'm sorry, you're the one who has it harder." Emmett said guiltily.
"But then again, Isabella going to the home economics classroom so early today is indeed unusual." Liana pondered for a moment and guessed, "Hmm... Is it because this morning's class is about 'Nighttime Fun' and she's particularly interested, so she couldn't wait to go to the classroom early?"
"Oh? There's such a class?" Emmett seemed to suddenly become excited. "In that case, let's switch as you suggested just now..."
Before he could finish his words, he felt the cold gaze of his servant Lianna, as if she was looking at garbage.
So he quickly changed his words and said:
"Uh, I was just joking... You know I can't get too close to Isabella, or I'll be noticed. Besides, I have to go out of town today..."
"Leave the city?" Lianna frowned slightly.
"I'm going to prepare a 'surprise gift' for this little sister," Emmett explained slowly. "I've already told you I'm going to help her... What she wants to achieve is too difficult, and as a brother I can't help but lend a hand."
"Stop it." Liana sighed softly. "I think you just want to see her jump into the fire pit with your own eyes, right? That's really mean."
"After all, I am a 'monster'." Emmett's mouth curled up slightly, "Didn't you know this a long time ago?"
68. Isabella's Trap
The morning class was about to begin, and the housewives who came to attend the class entered the classroom in groups of three or five.
"Wow, this little girl is so cute!"
"Your face is so round, I really want to pinch it~"
"Isabella, is this your little sister? She's such a beauty!"
Not surprisingly, the overly enthusiastic ladies showed great interest in Meimei.
The little girl was a little shy and quickly hid behind Isabella, clinging to her thighs tightly. However, after accepting the candy that one of the ladies stuffed into her, she quickly gave up her guard and resistance.
"Hehe, so cute... No need to worry, Isabella, this child has blue hair and golden eyes, completely different from you." One of the ladies couldn't help but ask after observing carefully for a while.
"Eh? Uh, uh..." Isabella was momentarily flustered and hurriedly explained, "My hair and eye color are from my father, and Meimei's is from my mother..."
"I see." The wife who asked the question nodded, but didn't pursue the matter any further. "But Isabella, this morning's class doesn't seem very suitable for children, right?"
That's right.
This morning's class is about "night fun" between couples.
It's definitely not content suitable for children to listen to.
"Well, Meimei was particularly clingy this morning. She said she didn't want to be separated from me at all, so I had no choice but to bring her here." As she spoke, Isabella hugged Meimei, who was holding a candy in her mouth, and put her on her lap, covering her ears with her hands. "Don't worry, I won't let her hear anything she shouldn't hear!"
Moreover, even if Meimei really heard it, she would not be able to understand what was really said.
I guess once the class officially starts, the little girl will soon get bored and fall into a deep sleep.
Thinking of this, Isabella glanced at the wall clock.
There are still fifteen minutes until class starts.
The woman who calls herself "Catherine" is about to show up... Well, when she comes, I must behave as usual and not let her notice any clues!
Only in this way can she fall into the trap carefully set by this lady!
Logically speaking, the woman who called herself Catherine was at best a vampire relative, and her strength was incomparable to Isabella's... There was no need to go to great lengths to deal with her.
But the problem is that there is a master behind that guy.
No matter what Isabella said or did to her, it was possible that her master would notice it through the "sensory sharing" between vampires and their followers... Therefore, she had to find a clever way to get information without alerting the enemy.
Fortunately, Isabella herself is also familiar with the principles and mechanisms of "sensory sharing".
And its vulnerabilities and cracking methods.
"Hehe, even for a smart lady like me, it took me a lot of thought to come up with such a perfect plan..." Isabella thought with some pride.
At this moment, the woman in a men's suit with her long burgundy hair tied into a ponytail slowly came into the classroom and walked straight to the seat next to Isabella.
The target appeared!
……
"Is this the Meimei you often mention?"
Lianna was a little surprised to see the little girl held on Isabella's lap.
Soft blue hair, golden eyes, a cute round face... She really looks adorable, but for some reason, there seems to be some wariness in the look in this little girl's eyes when she looks at me.
"Sorry, my Meimei is a little shy." Isabella said in a cheerful tone, "Come here, Meimei! This is my friend, Catherine! Come and say hello to her!"
"Hello, sister..." Meimei greeted timidly, and then quickly buried her little face in Isabella's shoulder.
"Ah hello."
Lianna wanted to reach out and rub Meimei's little head, but when her hand was halfway out, she suddenly changed her mind and retracted it.
...It’s better not to touch this child casually.
she thought.
If nothing unexpected happens, this child named Meimei should not be an ordinary person... Moreover, this child seemed to have suddenly appeared next to Isabella and Lor overnight, and I still haven't found out her origins.
Moreover, today's class is obviously not suitable for bringing children, right?
What on earth was Isabella thinking?
I always feel that something is not right.
Liana was full of doubts, but she couldn't be sure for the moment. She thought that after the class officially started, she would pretend to take notes and communicate with His Royal Highness the Prince... maybe he would notice something.
At nine o'clock sharp, Mrs. Marty, who was in charge of teaching, arrived in the classroom on time.
Originally, Mrs. Marty also felt that today's class was not suitable for bringing children, so she suggested that Isabella temporarily leave Meimei to the care of the staff.
However, when the child heard that she was going to be separated from Isabella, her eyes became tearful and she looked like she was about to cry. In addition, Isabella had only covered her ears to ensure that Meme would not hear a word, so Mrs. Marty had to give up.
"Well, I'm sure everyone understands that the frequency and quality of nighttime activities are crucial to maintaining the relationship between couples..."
After all, there were children in the classroom, so Mrs. Marty's wording became more obscure:
"Many couples gradually lose their initial passion after a while, and their 'collaboration' becomes increasingly formulaic and hasty... Therefore, in order to maintain freshness, some healthy and moderate stimulation is essential..."
"Yeah!" Isabella nodded frequently, seeming to be listening very carefully.
...Let me just say that she is particularly interested in today's class.
Lianna thought silently, and at the same time spread out her notebook, intending to remind Emmett in writing, wanting him to use the vampire's perception ability to check whether there was anything abnormal in Isabella's condition today.
However, at this moment...
"Um, Catherine... Meimei has fallen asleep. Can you hold her for a while?" Isabella came closer and whispered quietly, "My legs are a little numb. Besides, Mrs. Marty spoke so well today. I want to write down everything she said!"
This……
Lianna hesitated a little, but it would seem unnatural if she refused.
She took a closer look at Meimei and found that the little guy was breathing evenly and smacking his lips occasionally. It seemed that he was indeed sleeping soundly... She had to admit that this little guy was really cute and could easily arouse the maternal instinct in every woman.
Lianna is no exception.
Well, maybe I can take this opportunity to examine this little creature carefully and find out her origins.
Then take a little risk.
"Okay." Thinking of this, Lianna nodded.
However, the moment she stretched out her hand and took Meimei from Isabella's arms, she suddenly felt an unusual spiritual power suddenly invading her!
Liana was shocked.
Then, everything in front of her eyes suddenly became dark, and Mrs. Marty, who was teaching, and the entire classroom disappeared!
And "Isabella the Blessed" had stood in front of her at some point, with a chilling glimmer flashing in her deep red eyes!
"Welcome to the fantasy world."
Isabella raised her chin slightly and said softly:
"The information that 'Sense Sharing' can transmit is limited to the five senses in the conventional sense, and does not include hallucinations caused by extraordinary abilities... Therefore, here, you have no way to ask your master for help, and my subsequent conversation with you will not be transmitted to his second level.
"Then let's have a heart-to-heart talk, 'Catherine'."
69. Don’t be soft-hearted
Dragons have long been extinct, and much of the knowledge about them has been lost.
Even Isabella only had a vague understanding of the power of the dragon.
So until now she still didn't understand why she and Meimei had seen the vision of the ancient dragon god in the dragon ruins.
Logically speaking, the illusion at that time should have come from the dead dragon egg, but that thing should only react to the existence of the same dragon origin.
