Is the night devil queen me?

"How?" asked Mrs.
"No problem." Lucy handed the note to Madam, and Madam ignited a flame on her finger, burning the note to ashes.
"It's not too late, let's go." The lady shook her hand, opened the door of the room, looked around, and walked forward quietly with Lucy.
……
……
Inside the residential building outside the Xingyue Empire library, there was a soft light yellow light. A thin middle-aged man was wearing a clean suit and sitting at the desk with a slightly tired expression.
He exhaled lightly, picked up a book, opened it where the bookmark was sandwiched, and put on his glasses.
"Rock, Rock, dear." A gentle female voice came from the master bedroom outside the study, "Are you still asleep?"
"Go to bed first, honey." The man replied in a low voice.
"Okay, then I'll go to bed first. The little guy Keli is finally willing to sleep. If you are hungry later, there is broth in the kitchen. If you want to heat it up, please keep your voice down. Don't wake up that little guy." The woman enjoined.
"Understood." The man named Rock showed a smile on his face, and continued to flip through the book.
As time passed, Rock felt a little sleepy. He frowned, took off his glasses and let out a breath, rubbing his temples, trying to relieve his fatigue and drowsiness.
After adding some kerosene to the oil lamp, Rock looked back at the time and stood up slowly.
When he came to the kitchen, he brought out the broth made by his wife, and suddenly felt a warmth in his chest.
"!" He froze for a moment, his tiredness and drowsiness were instantly dissipated by the warmth.
Because the warmth was not due to his wife's intimate supper, but the necklace on his chest.
After taking out the necklace, the gemstone shone dimly and warmly. Rock's expression was complicated. He looked around the bedroom, heard his wife's sleeping breathing, squeezed the gemstone in his hand, and came to his daughter's room.
He sat by his daughter's bed, glanced at his daughter's lovely sleeping face like an angel, and glanced at the gemstone in his hand. The light was flickering, and the light illuminated half of Rock's face, full of entanglements.
He was hesitating, hesitating whether to respond.
woohoo hoo...
The night wind blew in from the window of the room, and it was icy cold. The sleeping little girl turned around, her petite body curled up into a ball.
Rock reacted, and quickly got up and closed the window, wondering why the closed window suddenly opened.
And the moment he closed the window, his expression became serious.
Someone came in.
He didn't know who the other party was, and he didn't know how the other party entered his daughter's room without anyone noticing, but these were not things that should be considered now.
Clenching the necklace in his hand, Rock slowly turned around.
The two women stood quietly in the corner of the room, holding in their hands the magic stone that activated the necklace on their bodies.
More or less, looking at the Philosopher's Stone in the hands of these two women, Roque felt relieved, but he still didn't dare to relax, staring at the two women in front of him vigilantly.
The red-haired woman glanced at Roque's daughter, stretched out her index finger to her rosy lips, and gestured for silence.
"Are you... from the Saint Trans Empire?" Rock asked in a low voice.
And the two women did not intend to answer him, but walked out of her daughter's room.
Rock took a deep breath, walked out, and closed the door of his daughter's room.
When he came to the living room and turned on the lights, Roque finally saw the appearance of the two women clearly, feeling very surprised.
He was not surprised by the other party's beautiful appearance, he was cautious and calm by nature and would not be easily moved by beauty, but he was surprised by the other party's identity.
"You...are those two women from the chamber of commerce?" Rock asked.
"You have a lot of questions, Lord Roque." Lucy said quietly, "But you have to answer my questions first."
With that said, Lucy picked up the Philosopher's Stone in her hand, "Why don't you respond immediately?"
"I..." Rock originally wanted to use the excuse that it was getting late and he didn't pay attention, but after thinking about it, these two women could quietly enter his daughter's room, and they might have been staring at him for a long time. The reason for this is ask for contempt.
Moreover, it is said that this red-haired woman is a monster close to the Holy Order.
Chapter 77 new identity
"I... I was just thinking about..." Although the eyes of the two women in front of them were not sharp, they vaguely gave people a feeling of seeing through everything. Rock did not intend to lie and answered truthfully.
"Do you know that you can be convicted of treason during the period of your hesitation?" Lucy continued to ask.
"I know, I know..." Rock lowered his head, he didn't seem to intend to quibble, he just admitted ambiguously, and occasionally glanced at the room where his daughter was sleeping soundly.
"It is recorded in the information about you that you are not such an indecisive character." Lucy also looked towards Rock's daughter's room, "Or is it your family that contributed to your character? Let you respond. There is a place for you, but at present, you are burdened, which may affect your successful completion of the mission and your loyalty to the empire."
"No! It's not like that!" Rock's voice suddenly increased a lot, with a nervous expression and a little fear, "I am loyal to the empire! My family members will not become my burden! Please rest assured! "
Rock stared at Madam closely. He knew that he was no match for this woman, and he didn't know anything about these two women. However, the other party could activate the highest order, for fear that the other party would do something out of line.
Lucy looked at Roque's expression, which was full of uneasiness and anxiety. Sitting there, her body trembled slightly, and she looked uncomfortable like rolled noodles.
The whip is used, and some sugar should be given appropriately.
In this regard, Lucy's tone was a little softer, "Loyalty is not something you say with your mouth, but considering your performance over the years and your contribution to the empire, it makes your words a little bit more Credibility."
Lucy's words somewhat stabilized Rock's mood. Taking this opportunity, she continued, "It's not like you don't know the current form of the Star-Moon Empire. Your wife and daughter are a burden to the Empire. Their existence , so that we cannot fully trust you."
"I have nothing to say. If the higher-ups want to punish me, I will fully accept it, but please let my wife and daughter go. They don't know anything." Rock's voice was hoarse.
"Is it possible?" Lucy said lightly, "If you really commit the crime, do you really think that your wife and daughter can survive? Don't be so naive. If it were you, would you leave such a hidden danger?"
Rock clenched his fists and trembled slightly. After taking a deep breath, he tried to calm himself down and analyzed Lucy's words, "My subordinates dare to ask, if what you said is if, then in other words, I still have a remedy There's room, right?"
Lucy smiled and leaned on the back of the chair, "You are very smart, let's put it this way, my next proposal is a good thing for you."
"Is the empire willing to pick up my daughter?"
"Yes."
As the information said, Roque is very smart, and he can understand the meaning with a little guidance, which made Lucy more clear that Roque is the right person for this mission,
"What about my wife?" Rock didn't think the empire would accept his wife, but he reconfirmed unwillingly.
"After the task is completed, the empire will accept your wife. You can both return to your country and have the dignified citizenship of the Saint Transit Empire. Your daughter can also study in the Imperial Academy for free." Lucy moved her face closer Some: "How about it, this condition is very attractive."
"Then my task..."
"Don't worry, it's not difficult. After picking up your daughter, there will be someone who will replace your daughter. You don't have to act as low-key as before, and obey all the requirements of the person who can replace your daughter." Lucy continued Said, "You are a smart person, and you know the deeper meaning of taking your daughter away."
"Understood, I will not let my motherland down." Of course, Roque knew that this meant restraining him, but in the current form of the Star-Moon Empire, taking his daughter away was the top priority.
The rest is just to be loyal to my duty, no matter what happens, as long as I don't betray, my daughter will be treated kindly.
that's enough.
"Very good." Lucy stood up, "Get your daughter ready in the early morning, and someone will pick her up."
Lucy and his wife left, and Roque breathed a sigh of relief. He had already accumulated a lot of fatigue, and under the impact of tension and fear, he swept in like a flood, but he didn't dare to neglect or rest. He looked at the wall on the clock.
Dragging his body like a boulder, Rock returned to the bedroom and sat on the bed.
His wife turned her back to him, but Rock knew she wasn't asleep.
"Aren't you asleep yet?" Rock asked.
"Yeah." The wife responded.
"How much have you heard?"
"Not much, I just vaguely heard the few words you said in a louder voice."
"Someone will pick Cory up in the wee hours of the morning."
Hearing this, the wife was silent for a while, and slowly grasped the quilt with both hands, "Mmm... ok..."
……
……
"Oh... So, it's all arranged..."
In the room, Lilith squinted her eyes and looked a little sleepy. She yawned, babbled a few times, stretched her waist, lifted the quilt and got out of bed.
"Yes, Your Majesty, everything has been arranged." Lucy nodded.
"It's okay." Lilith rubbed her eyes while pouring water, "Lenyue said that the Demon King's Army has become dishonest recently. I originally wanted to go and see, but it seems that I have to postpone it. Go to that Rock's house to find out the situation, and then make plans, Lucy and Madam, you just need to focus on the smooth completion of the transaction."
"Understood, Your Majesty."
……
……
"Hello, from today onwards, I am your daughter Keli, please give me your advice." Standing in front of Rock and his wife, Lilith felt that she still had to say hello.
Rock was very surprised. This was really a little girl who was about the same age as his own daughter. At first, he thought that some kind of 'monster' would come. After all, it was someone sent from above. You have to have cruel means, extraordinary wisdom and a cold heart.
Even though Roque is self-aware and righteous, but just looking at it at first glance...
Blonde hair as bright as the sun, blue eyes that are deep and full of pure vitality, long black eyelashes, a small mouth like a cherry, and a warm smile that seems to melt people's hearts.
Even though the reason in his heart has been warning Rock not to be deceived by appearances, he just can't see beyond the appearances.
In his eyes, this is just a cute little girl.
Who is she?What is the purpose of sending her here?Is she as old as she looks?
Questions piled up in his heart, but he didn't dare to ask them. Rock just vaguely felt that a storm was coming.
Chapter 78 Confirmation
"Father, Mom! Or, what your girls call Father, Mother?" As if wanting to quickly enter the role, Lilith asked as she walked around the room.
"Just call them mom and dad." Rock followed behind the beautiful little girl and responded in a low voice.
To be honest, he is still very wary, especially this kind of cute little girl who likes to smile and looks harmless to humans and animals. Maybe, if it is replaced by a bad character, all kinds of words and actions are violent. A strong man, on the contrary, can make him feel more at ease, at least he can understand the bottom line and touch the depth.
And this cute little girl like an angel in front of him, he couldn't see through, whether it was the other party's true character, strength, or thoughts, he really couldn't figure out the depth at all.
"Mom and Dad, okay, I'll remember. Having said that, although I know that you act low-key in the empire and have a very low sense of existence, no matter what, it is impossible to have no intersection with people at all, such as your neighbors, such as Your colleague." Lilith sat down and reconfirmed, "How many people know about your daughter's existence, and how many people have seen your daughter, who was the last person who saw your daughter, and where , time and date?"
"No one has seen my daughter, and even if they have, they don't know it's my daughter." Rock sighed, and this topic seemed to be something he didn't want to mention.
His wife, beside him, was equally depressed.
"Oh?" Lilith was a little surprised, "Are you sure?"
"I swear by my daughter." Rock sighed, "Because of the special nature of my work, I have been carefully concealing all of this. I have no interaction with anyone, and even my wife exists only A few colleagues know about it, but they have never met. I have never taken my daughter out, and the family of three has never gone out together. If I can try to avoid going out, I will avoid going out. Over the years, my daughter’s world is only mine. My wife may have lived a life that seemed to be isolated from the world for a long time, even though she is seven years old this year, she still talks and acts like a three-year-old child."
"Is that why you keep applying to return to China, or send your wife and daughter back to the Saint Trans Empire?" Lilith said.
"Yes...but the empire has always refused..."
"Of course, the empire even has the idea of abandoning you." Lilith said coldly, "Because you married a woman from the Star-Moon Empire without authorization and gave birth to a daughter. Whether your loyalty is firm or not is doubtful."
"Is it because my wife is from the Star-Moon Empire, so..."
"The important thing is not what you do, but when you do it." Lilith interrupted Roque, "You did this kind of thing during the latent mission, what will the high-level empire who had high expectations of you think?" ?The reason why I didn’t abandon you is because your work is indeed progressing smoothly. Under such high pressure and complicated external factors, you can still complete the task smoothly. To be honest, I admire you for this. Choose your reason."
"I have nothing to say... I have nothing to say if the high command of the empire suspects me or abandons me... But now that the empire has given me this opportunity, I will definitely do everything to ensure the completion of the mission, even though I don't know you Who is it, I will not ask, but you must still have a certain right to speak in the upper echelons of the empire, and please give me a few words of kindness after the task is completed! You can use my life as you like, but please let me wife……"
"One last question." Lilith stretched out her palm, signaling Roque to stop, then stared at his wife and asked, "How should I trust her."
Although Lilith sympathized with Roque's experience, she couldn't influence her judgment because of it. Roque could trust him somewhat because of his daughter's shackles. His wife, no matter how much she loves her daughter, is an unstable factor in Lilith's eyes, but she must exist in order to carry out the plan.
So before adjusting plans and practices, Lilith wanted to confirm with Roque first, hoping that he could give herself a satisfactory answer.
"My wife will not be loyal to the Star-Moon Empire." With a complicated expression, Roque looked at his wife with questioning eyes.
Rock's wife closed her eyes, nodded lightly, turned around, raised her long hair and turned her back to Lilith, and unbuttoned her blouse to expose her back.
The imprints of patterns and numbers turned into scars, clearly visible.
Lilith knew that generally this kind of branding was only given to slaves.
"My wife's name is Manny, which I named her. She was captured by the Imperial Army as a slave and branded at the age of 12. Eight years ago, I rescued her as she was dying." Rock looked at his wife's back. Gritting his teeth, even though he was furious, he still tried his best to restrain himself, and continued, "The year of this brand cannot be faked, and you can verify it yourself."
"No, it's enough." Lilith's tone was softer, "No one would like to mention this kind of thing. I admire your courage, Manny, and thank you for your trust. I won't be ignorant. "
"Thank you for your trust, thank you..." Roque pulled up his wife's clothes and held her shoulders tightly, apologetic in his eyes.
Manny just shook her head lightly, indicating that she was fine.
