At least that's what she saw from her father's attitude towards her and his previous encounter with Magnus.
But...Grandpa?
Alice tilted her head in confusion. Why did she think it was Grandpa?
But then she thought of her father's bearded face, which was in his sixties or seventies, and she couldn't help laughing.
"He is my father." Alice leaned towards Youzhu and whispered to her.
After saying that, he frowned in a strange way and asked, "How do you know we are related?"
Although this kind of thing is basically known to the top management, it doesn't matter if it is exposed.
Even if she used her to threaten Dad, he wouldn't care.
Alice's expression suddenly became a little gloomy, and the lively look just now disappeared.
"I can see that." Youzhu's words made her frown even more.
Even if you see through her "illusion", it is impossible to guess her relationship with her father.
More than half of Alice's body is made of machinery, so she can use magic anytime and anywhere.
Otherwise, complicated magic circles and lengthy spells are still needed.
Looking at Alice who was confused, Youzhu ate her food silently.
It seems that she really doesn't know what's going on with her heart.
Being able to put your heart into someone else's body, and then use your body to protect someone else's heart.
This is not something that can be achieved through an ordinary relationship. It requires either relatives or close friends.
Considering Alice's age, the former is more likely.
But...are they actually father and daughter? She thought they were grandparents and grandchildren.
Youzhu raised the corner of her mouth silently. "Did he come here to tell you something?"
"Not really, I just want to cooperate." Alice returned to her original state.
She raised her finger and shook it slightly. "The ultimate goal of magicians is divine ingenuity. So isn't going directly to the prophesied witch the fastest way?"
"Is your goal also divine ingenuity?"
Of course it was to help Dad...that's something she wouldn't say.
"Of course," Alice nodded decisively. "Indeed, it would be strange if I weren't interested in this perfect life."
Youzhu nodded in understanding and looked at Xia Lu who was still in a panic across from her.
"We...we are not dating..." Xia Lu was covering her red cheeks and muttering something.
Sigmund looked at his master helplessly, thought for a few seconds, and then continued to eat the chicken on the plate.
“Here comes the work.”
Youzhu's voice brought Xia Lu back to her senses. She patted her cheeks and adjusted herself.
"Work? Oh, is it related to the night party?"
Xia Lu finally managed to fade the blush on her face, but when she saw the meaningful smile on Alice's face opposite her, her cheeks turned red again.
She coughed twice to cover up her gaffe. "I don't need help from someone so low in the rankings."
"As expected of Tyrant Rex, the No. 6."
Alice clapped softly, just as she was about to continue.
"Then can I?"
A male voice suddenly joined the conversation.
When they looked over, a blond man with a strange hairstyle and a smile on his face stood in front of them.
"Good afternoon, ladies."
He greeted everyone present with impeccable etiquette.
Then he turned his gaze to Xia Lu, and the smile on his face became more obvious.
"Long time no see, Xia Lu."
"I didn't allow you to call me Xia Lu."
"He's Felix Kingsford, ranked No. 4 in the night club."
Xia Lu's blunt refusal and Alice's introduction sounded at the same time.
The latter's voice was very cheerful. "Now he is openly pursuing Miss Charlotte."
Going to school to attend the graduation ceremony, I'm taking a day off today~
Purple potato pudding purple potato pudding purple potato pudding purple potato pudding purple potato pudding purple potato pudding purple potato pudding purple potato pudding purple potato pudding purple potato pudding purple potato pudding purple potato pudding purple potato pudding purple potato pudding purple potato pudding purple potato pudding purple potato pudding purple potato pudding purple potato pudding purple potato pudding purple potato pudding.
Chapter 49: They unite?
"Haha, but classmate Charlotte didn't give me this opportunity."
Even when he was rejected, Felix still had that perfect smile of his.
"I remember I've already rejected you. Can you please stop pestering me?"
Xia Lu's ruthless words made Felix's smile a little distorted.
He lowered his head bitterly, as if the girl's cruel words had hurt his heart.
But after a few seconds, he seemed to have thought of something and raised his head again.
He looked at Xia Lu with a serious expression, different from before.
"Then we can cooperate..."
"No!" The blunt answer made Felix cover his chest sadly.
He asked back sadly.
"why?"
"First of all, you're acting so...pursuingly, and yet you join my team? That's not quite right."
When it comes to the word "pursuit", Xia Lu feels a little uncomfortable.
It seems that these two words have never been mentioned before, and girls always feel embarrassed when they are mentioned for the first time.
But her words continued to hit her suitors.
"Secondly, cooperation requires a foundation." Xia Lu looked around Felix.
"You don't seem to have brought your automaton with you?"
“She doesn’t like to go out much.”
Felix waved his hands helplessly.
"Your doll has never appeared in public, right?" Xia Lu's tone became even colder.
"It seems no one has ever seen your automaton," Alice added with a smile, her chin in her hand. "They only know your codename as the Girl with the Silver Spear. Is your automaton the Girl with the Silver Spear?"
"..."
The originally rich expression on Felix's face gradually became dull.
"Felix, could you please reveal a little information about your automaton?"
If it is a doll like Xuehua Qijing next to Youzhu, if it turns against them during the battle, the consequences will be very serious.
"..."
Felix's silence made Xia Lu's expression even colder. She pointed at the door of the restaurant and said, "So you can leave now?"
After he finished speaking, the surrounding atmosphere fell into silence for a moment.
In the distance, many students were looking at this side, pointing and whispering.
"Hey, two of the thirteen are gathered together."
"Are you preparing to form an alliance?"
"Isn't that Felix? He must be pursuing the tyrant again."
"That's it. I thought some of the thirteen were going to unite."
"Felix is truly brave. He dared to attack the tyrant, not afraid of being..."
"Shh...she's looking over here."
Although the students' conversation was faint enough, it still could not escape the ears of Youzhu and others.
At the same time, the sound of the knife and fork colliding in Youzhu's hands became more and more frequent, as if reflecting the owner's inner displeasure.
Hearing the conversations of the students around him, Felix slowly raised his head.
His expression had adjusted within these few seconds, and he looked at Xia Lu with the same smile as when he came.
"Ha... I'm so abrupt. I guess we should form an alliance first and then pursue her."
Felix covered his forehead with his hands, showing a look of regret, as if he really regretted his behavior.
However, no one paid attention to his funny behavior.
His eyes, slightly blocked by his palms, scanned everyone present without leaving a trace, and his gaze lingered on Youzhu for a second longer.
Then he bowed his head and apologized, "I'm sorry to bother you ladies during lunch time. I'll take my leave now."
He raised his head and turned to leave, but just as he turned around, he suddenly stopped. "There has been a case of automata being destroyed inside the school since the start of the school year. Everyone, please be careful when you go out."
After saying that, he slowly walked towards the door, and with a crisp sound of the door closing, he left the restaurant.
Seeing him disappear, Xia Lu finally breathed a sigh of relief, but she immediately looked at Youzhu nervously, "This..."
"Xia Lu."
Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by Youzhu's cold voice.
The happy mood she had felt after receiving the information was disturbed, and she looked at Xia Lu with eyes that were even colder than her tone.
"Don't let this kind of thing happen in front of me in the future."
"There won't be a next time." Xia Lu said seriously.
Youzhu nodded silently, and the movement of the knife and fork in her hand relaxed a little.
Alice watched the scene with great interest, interlacing her fingers.
As expected, Miss Charlotte was a chess piece released by Youzhu to compete for the night party.
"What position does that person just now hold on campus?" At this time, Youzhu's question sounded in Xia Lu and Alice's ears.
The information Felix just mentioned has not been made public on campus, so his source of information is very suspicious.
Either they hold a position that allows them to access these cases, or they have the power of a family behind them.
"He is the school's discipline committee member." ×2
As if she was trying to make up for the mistake of bringing the trivial matters to Youzhu, Xia Lu's voice became a little hurried.
Alice, who was just looking at the fun, still had a smiling tone in her voice.
"The Kingsford family is very powerful in the House of Lords. His father, Watt, was a powerful official during the reign of the previous British Queen."
Alice glanced at Felix's receding back, and her tone finally became serious.
"The Kingsford family even has connections to the British spy agency."
Youzhu nodded, gently put down her knife and fork, and looked at Alice who was sitting next to her.
"Let's continue with the previous topic. What is your collaboration?"
