After choosing to leave, they regretted it.

What kind of relationship will I have with Aize in the future? This question can be left for later consideration.

But whether it is his companions or believers, at least for now, no one can let his gaffe affect his plans.

We must cheer up quickly.

"I'll be ready now, please... no, sorry, it will still take a while. Could you please call the administrator to help me?"

Going to bed with wet hair and rolling around in bed has the direct result that Chris's hair is now no better than a bird's nest.

Even if she was in a hurry, she would never want to appear in front of Aize in such a miserable state.

Of course Aize had no objection. After calling the administrator, he left the room and went downstairs to wait.

The administrator skillfully helped Chris, who was sitting in front of the dressing table, to fix her hair.

Looking at her hair in the mirror, which was as messy as a ghost's, Chris's lips trembled.

"Sorry to trouble you..."

"My dear lady, this is too formal. I used to be a maid in the castle. When you were a little girl, I was the one who took care of your hair. What is there to apologize for? In fact, taking care of your hair like this makes me feel younger myself~"

The administrator smiled and then changed the subject:

"Compared to this, how was your last night?"

"Last night... oh, that. Don't mention that."

What I am referring to, of course, is the so-called sneak attack plan.

This arrangement, based on the premise of a fake couple, is full of loopholes.

Although Chris herself was extremely excited physically, her inner hesitation had never been eliminated.

In addition, after hearing Aize's evaluation and expectations of herself last night, this half-baked and irresponsible behavior made her feel even more ashamed.

My mouth feels bitter when I think about it now, so of course I don’t want to say much.

However, the administrator smiled mysteriously:

"What? Missy is not satisfied? That's no big deal. It's always like this the first time. You two can learn together."

Chris didn't understand now.

"Unsatisfied? What do you mean?"

"Of course it's about that aspect. I saw that Lord Aize looked very tired this morning. I guess he carried out the plan last night, right? It's the first time, so as long as we can take that step, we can't ask for too much."

"No, what are you talking about, I didn't even… eh?"

Chris remembered something.

Last night, the normal plan was to pretend that I couldn't go back to my room and rush to Aize's place, then rush onto the bed and hug him without saying anything.

In addition, there is a plan B, which is to use that bottle of potion to achieve the same effect.

The plan is ruined, where is the medicine?

Chris pushed the administrator away, jumped up from her seat, grabbed the bathrobe she was wearing last night, and began to rummage through it.

Unfortunately, there is nothing inside.

She turned the already messy bed upside down, threw the pillows and every layer of quilt into the air and shook them vigorously. She checked every corner and even under the carpet.

But there was no trace of the small bottle.

"administrator."

"Um?"

"The hotel is cleaned every day, right?"

"Of course, what's the matter?"

"Did anyone find the bottle of spring you gave me last night...that little bottle?"

The administrator looked at her in surprise, then shook her head:

"No, what happened? Lost it? So what? It's definitely in the hotel anyway. I'll just have someone look for it later."

That's true, and if you have no idea where the bottle is, that's fine.

The thing is, Chris still has some memory of it.

I felt like I had seen it somewhere before I returned to my room yesterday.

It should be the floor, the carpet, and-

“…No way!!?”

A certain possibility caused Chris to suffer cardiopulmonary arrest.

She was so excited that she turned around and grabbed the administrator by the collar:

"That who-that-that brave man, Luo-Luo-Luo what is it?"

"Lady Rosalyn Meredith?"

"Yes! Yes! That's her! Has she left? Has her apartment been cleaned?!"

The administrator had no idea why his young lady was suddenly so excited.

But he still answered honestly:

"Lady Rosalyn left about twenty minutes ago. Her suite should be cleaned by now..."

"Take me there! Quick!"

Chris's eyes were bloodshot, and she almost dragged the administrator's wife up to the top floor where she had eavesdropped last night. In front of several servants who were about to open the door to clean, she kicked the door open and walked in while they looked at her in shock.

"Don't, don't, don't be like this..."

With an extremely nervous mood, Chris left the administrator aside, muttering to herself and searching the room like crazy.

Then she saw the tray that the little girl had been carrying last night, as well as the empty plates, cups and teapot placed on the coffee table in the room.

Unfortunately, the small bottle was also among them.

"Miss, you are..."

“No…don’t, ahhhhhhhhhh!”

Completely ignoring the gazes of others, Chris grabbed the small bottle, held it in her hand and wailed.

“Master, no, Aize… Aize must have been defiled by that woman!”

Chapter 61 Nothing Happened

Chris got up much later than planned, so she had to make some changes to her original plan to return to the city early in the morning.

After Chris packed up her things and walked down the stairs, at the invitation of the administrator, the two of them had a proper lunch in the hotel before finally setting out on their journey back to the city.

Along the way, Aize remained silent.

After returning to the castle of the Carlside family, he simply thanked the Marquise of Carlside who was able to stand up, and then rushed into the study.

During this time, he kept thinking about what happened last night.

Since coming to this world until now, after dealing with Rosaline for more than two years, this is the first time they have a direct face-to-face confrontation.

The result...is not good to evaluate.

Although it was a success, no conclusive evidence was found.

fail?

Not really.

No matter how hypocritical and good at disguising this guy is, the completely different state she displayed in the conversation last night showed that Aize had inadvertently touched upon the crux of the matter.

But what is the key?

I always feel that it is right at hand, but there is a subtle feeling that I can't grasp it.

"Seemingly contradictory, even random, behaviors, purposes, motivations, belief networks, and this expedition... there must be a single, unifying explanation. But... could there be something I've missed?"

For Rosaline's formal investigation, from the beginning of the Holy City riots to the present, with the discovery of the faith network as a temporary result, everything seems to be going smoothly.

But is the word "natural" really appropriate to describe this guy?

"Let's investigate again."

I brainstormed for half a day, but apart from making myself dizzy and having a headache, I didn't find any valuable information.

After taking a deep breath, Aize decided to start from the beginning.

He once again took out the thick stack of documents that the intelligence officer had brought him and placed them in front of him.

Then--

"Christina Karsade, what on earth did you mean by that? Are you dissatisfied with me? If you are dissatisfied, then please tell me! What is going on?!"

Aize, unable to bear it any longer, slammed the table and stood up, roaring angrily.

Chris, who was yelled at, was hiding behind a cracked door. Since she came back, she had been staring at Aize stealthily and motionlessly.

If that were all, it would be fine, but this kid has always been fond of peeping.

The problem is, I don't know what's wrong with me today, but from time to time I would cast a look mixed with apology and even pity, and even my pupils were sparkling with tears.

The annoying index has been multiplied tenfold or even ninefold, and there's also a feeling of being looked down upon or even insulted.

I thought this guy would leave on his own after a while, but who would have thought it would go on and on.

Then how can Aize not get angry?

"Ah!? S-sorry!"

Like a frightened bird, Chris screamed and then stumbled and tried to escape.

"Don't run!"

Aize rushed forward, grabbed the collar, pulled him back and pressed him onto a chair.

"What the hell are you doing... No, it's not just you. Even the people at the hotel looked a little strange during lunch today. What's going on?! What did you do behind my back again?! Tell me clearly!"

Past experience has proven that you can always trust Christina when it comes to messing around.

Therefore, Aize planned to deal with this potential risk before thinking further about Rosaline's matter.

Faced with her master's unusually harsh questioning, the blue-haired girl broke out in a cold sweat.

His eyes were darting and dodging at a high speed, as if he would die if he met Aize's gaze.

The sound was so quiet that it was almost inaudible:

"That, it's... it's... uh, last night..."

"last night?"

"Did you have a hard time last night?"

"ha?"

Hard? Hard about what? Was it referring to the confrontation with Rosaline last night?

To be honest, it was really hard. After all, talking to others was hard, and talking to her would cause sanity loss.

But Chris's inexplicable attitude is obviously more than that.

You can't think that you are having an affair with Rosalyn, right?

Impossible, absolutely impossible.

First of all, Chris knew Aize and should know Aize's attitude towards his former teammates. Normally, there would be no such misunderstanding.

Secondly, wasn't Chris eavesdropping outside the door almost the entire time? How could there be a misunderstanding?

Yes, Aize had actually known from the beginning that Chris was eavesdropping. Therefore, when he spoke to Rosaline, he was also telling his apprentice about it.

I have to pretend to be stupid and not let her know, otherwise the effect of my words will be reduced.

Moreover, although there are some deliberate parts in the organization of the language, it is still 100% true. Aize did not lie and therefore has a clear conscience.

So, this is her?

"What the hell are you doing? Stop playing dumb! Just tell me what you mean!"
