MTL - Congratulations on Your Arrest-Chapter 362 I'll call you "Dodo" from now on
Chapter 362 I will call you "Duodo" from now on
In the manor of Linhu Bieyuan.
There is a small building near the lake. Strictly speaking, this is actually an open-air garden restaurant.
Under the drizzle in the blue sky, the "Great Sage" Higashinohara sat at a white round table on a man-made natural lawn under an umbrella by the lake.
The ivory white tableware reflects the skylight, and flowers of various colors bloom on the surrounding lawn, and the breeze blowing on the face crushes the fragrance of the flowers into the moist water.
Empress Dorothy Alita, who was sitting across from him, was wearing the black nightgown, took a sip of tea, and then said something to the maid who was approaching.
The maid quickly walked up to Higashinohara to add some special milk tea from the manor, and then bowed back without looking sideways, and began to prepare breakfast for the weird couple.
Higashinohara did not go to see the maid.
He looked at the distant mountains on the other side of the lake like daisy, and heard the sound of forest and sea waves. From the corner of his eyes, he could occasionally see birds coming back from foraging, which made this area known as "Linhai Bieyuan" The manor has a sense of tranquility and tranquility.
"It's really a good place." He took a deep breath, feeling the warm and moist breath from his nose into his lungs.
This made Higashinohara, who had been a little depressed, slightly lifted up, and felt refreshed for a while.
You know, the dignitaries of the United States of Targos have always liked to form cliques to form the so-called "upper circle", and even their residences prefer community-style mansions like Senator Kenneth, and there are not many dignitaries. I will choose the heavenly manor in Shangjing.
This does not mean,
Manors are not worth much in this country.
Meiji Mansion is the capital of the United States of Tagos, and the King's District is the core area of the five administrative districts of Meiji Mansion.
In such an administrative region where every inch of land is expensive, owning such a large and unique independent manor, the value and deeper meaning of it are naturally indescribable.
At this moment, hearing Higashinohara's emotion, Empress Dorothy Alita who was sitting opposite looked up at Higashinohara who seemed nothing had happened, but subconsciously remembered the absurd tossing after getting up in the morning.
Said to "fight again",
However, in the end, she was drifting and hazy. In that ecstasy and trance, who would remember the struggle for dominance?
It's nothing more than your side singing and our side coming on stage.
It is not that the east wind overwhelms the west wind,
It means that the west wind overwhelms the east wind.
Perhaps this pair of men and women who have a relatively complicated relationship with each other also know deep down in their hearts that the so-called competition for dominance is just a high-sounding "excuse".
In the final analysis, a young person knows this taste for the first time, and a person who has never been swept away by a friend.
Last night, it was due to injuries, and some were due to jerkyness. It was always a short spring night. That's why there was this morning's "fight again".
Thinking of this, Dorothy Alita, the empress with fair neck and slightly reddish tinge, looked at Higashinohara who was sitting across the table with a smile on her body, and gradually felt a little weird in her heart, and felt a little uncomfortable all over her body.
Her almond eyes were also slightly confused, she subconsciously looked away, and said in the same cold voice, "If you like, you can live in this place forever."
Ah this?
Then who am I?
Higashinohara couldn't help shaking his head when he heard the words:
“I don’t like living abroad very much.”
Empress Dorothy Alita took a look at the 'stubborn' Higashinohara, bowed her head and pondered for two seconds, her voice was much softer, and said softly:
"I'm not often in Meiji Mansion, so it's okay to give this manor to you, but it's the property under my mother's name, so the formalities are a bit troublesome."
Higashinohara was surprised that the woman with a black swan-like voice who was always so cold spoke to him in a soft tone, but at this moment when he heard what the other person said, he was slightly embarrassed, and quickly waved his hands and said:
"I didn't mean that."
Hearing Higashinohara's refusal, Empress Dorothy Alita glanced indifferently, lowered her eyes slightly, and said nothing more.
Higashinohara couldn't help being startled when he saw this. If he read it correctly, he could clearly see an imperceptible sense of loss in the eyes of the woman in front of him.
After turning around in his mind, he quickly realized that he couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart.
The woman in front of her seems to have a strong and tough character, but she probably doesn't have many close people over the years.
And this "Linhu Bieyuan" manor,
In the eyes of Higashinohara, who worked hard in New Tokyo last year to save enough money for an apartment and became the "working emperor", it was naturally very expensive and luxurious.
But for this woman who was born in the world-class financial oligarch Tianhu Bart's family, it was like having a lot of "toys" from her mother when she was a child, and some of them were even forgotten in the corner. The little boy who was close was rejected when he shared it.
"I'm not trying to say no to you."
Higashinohara scratched the center of his eyebrows, and the generation gap between the communication with the 'rich woman' was too big, so he couldn't help but said with a wry smile, "It's just that this manor is too expensive, and you don't get paid for nothing. In our hometown, men can't just accept women's valuables stuff, unless."
"Unless what?"
Dorothy Alita asked subconsciously.
But she, who has lived in the Judgment Department of Shangjing for a long time, is not hiding in the deep mountains and old forests.
As soon as the words came out, she seemed to realize something, and her neck blushed slightly, and her deep, slender dark blue almond eyes gave Higashinohara a slightly angry look.
This made Higashinohara's heart flutter.
I thought of the ups and downs in the morning on the extremely wide, extremely soft velvet bed in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows of that room.
The woman in front of me, who is as graceful as a black swan and as cold as a black swan, seems to always undergo some different changes in front of him, like spring water thawing.
It is precisely this different change,
I can't help but let Higashinohara, a young man who is just getting acquainted with it, feel swayed.
Picking up the milk tea in front of him, Higashinohara took a sip, put it down and looked at the woman in front of him again and said, "My name is Higashinohara, and I'm an exchange student from Wano Country to Stafford Private Academy. Speaking of which, I don't seem to know your name yet."
After hearing the word 'name', the empress seemed to recall something from the past, and her eyes were slightly erratic.
She had a figure like a black rose and sat quietly at the white round table, suddenly raised a strand of black hair by her ear, and said softly:
"Is the name that important?"
Higashinohara was slightly taken aback, but still nodded seriously, "It's very important to me."
In his previous life, he was an otaku, and he never had anything to do with men and women.
In this life, not long after he came to this world, he was caught in many risks. Although there are a few kind and amiable women around him, there is still something missing after all, and he has never thought of taking a step forward.
Unexpectedly, after coming to this unfamiliar place of the United States of Targos, this happened to the woman of the tribunal in front of me.
Higashino Yuan has never been a flat character. Since it happened, he will take it seriously, and he will not be a coward even if the opponent is behind him.
Although the other party's personality would not admit it, in Higashinohara's heart, the other party has now become his person, so of course he must know the minimum name of the other party.
Seemingly hearing the seriousness in Higashinohara's tone, the empress raised her dark blue eyes to look at Higashinohara, and then said slowly, "Dorrosh Alita, you can call me like someone else. I am Master Alita."
"Master Alita?"
Higashi Nohara frowned, suddenly shook his head with a smile and said, "This is not very nice, why don't I call you Dorothy, or Dodo.
Uh, forget it. "
Speaking to the back, I noticed the sudden cold breath on the black swan-like woman in front of me.
Higashinohara, whose tone was a bit fluttering, realized again the fact that the opponent was a ninth-level powerhouse, so he could only laugh dryly and stop quickly.
At this moment, the maid who had just bowed and retreated came again pushing the dining car.
There are two very simple breakfasts on the dining car tray, cinnamon rolls, pancakes, and two breads with caviar and cheese, which are common in the United States of Tagos.
The maid put down the breakfast lightly, took out a black digital camera from somewhere and handed it to Dorothy Alita who was near the lake.
From the beginning to the end, her gaze never stayed on Higashinohara for a second.
But the corner of Higashinohara’s eye,
However, she was still aware of the surprise of this maid, who was probably in her fifties, at the sudden appearance of a strange young man in this quiet manor.
Behind that unconcealable surprise, what shocked the maid's outlook on life even more was that the two of them walked out of the lady's bedroom together this morning.
At this time, just as the maid turned around and was about to leave, the empress Dorothy Alita, who lowered her head and fiddled with the camera in her hand, suddenly said softly:
“Come and help us take a picture.”
"what?"
Higashinohara and the maid looked at Empress Dorothy Alita, who was sitting there calmly, almost at the same time.
Empress Dorothy Alita handed the digital camera adjusted in her hand to the maid, and said in a flat tone,
"You will always report to Shangjing's mother later, won't you? I don't want her to bother me again, why don't you take a photo of us and give it to her when you report."
Higashi Nohara heard Empress Dorothy Alita's blunt words, and after a second of stunned, he understood what the "mother" in the other party's mouth meant to him.
Ah this? !
Is this filmable?
The maid standing aside with her head bowed couldn't help but smiled awkwardly when she heard the words, showing a somewhat helpless and grateful expression.
She is just a servant, on one side is the young lady, on the other hand is the young lady's mother, and at the same time is the master who pays her salary in this manor.
She was caught in the middle, and it was probably impossible for both sides not to offend.
At this moment, when she heard Empress Dorothy Alita's straightforward words, of course she only felt grateful. She quickly bent down and took the camera from the Empress's hand, and skillfully focused on the couple sitting in the open-air restaurant in the lakeside garden. Men and women having breakfast.
Some Higashinohara who didn't understand the situation subconsciously wanted to refuse, but the empress Dorothy Alita seemed to see Higashinohara's inner concerns.
She calmly said:
"This photo will only appear in my mother's hands and in my private collection, and no one else will see this photo."
Higashinohara was suddenly distracted,
There is nothing embarrassing about it.
—After all, last night he just beheaded the judge Mishus under the second adjudicator of the Adjudication Division.
During this period of time, the identity is really a little sensitive, so it is understandable to have such concerns.
It's just that after he was stunned for a moment, he suddenly realized the meaning of Dorothy Alita's words just now, and couldn't help but said with a strange expression, "Your. Private collection."
Empress Dorothy Alita's neck turned slightly red when she heard the words, but her face remained calm.
She looked at Higashinohara calmly, "You can take one if you want."
"Then... let's get one."
Higashinohara sighed inwardly.
Empress Dorothy Alita naturally couldn't hear the sigh in Higashinohara's heart.
Hearing that he also wanted to keep a photo of the two of them together, the corners of the empress's cold red lips could not help but slightly curled up, which seemed to reveal a little joy in her heart.
The next second, after realizing Higashinohara's gaze, she quickly returned to normal.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, the flash light suddenly turned on, and there was only a "click" in the ear, and the maid at the side of the table captured this scene with a "photographic talent".
Empress Dorothy Alita's body under the black nightgown couldn't help but froze slightly, frowned, and said to the maid beside her in a deep voice:
"Let me take a look at the photos first."
The maid hurriedly bent down and handed over the three photos developed by the camera. Dorothy Alita took a look after taking it, and the beautiful willow-leaf eyebrows that were frowning suddenly became deeper.
In the photo,
Into the eyes is the azure background of the distant mountains.
The lake is shining, the drizzle is empty,
A pair of tall and slender men and women in black nightgowns sat opposite each other at a white round table in an open-air garden restaurant by the lake.
From the corner of the woman's eyes, she caught sight of the young man's eyebrows, and the corners of her lips subconsciously curved slightly, causing a faint warmth to inexplicably linger in this quiet picture like a landscape painting with dry ink.
However, the next second,
Empress Dorothy Alita handed back the three photos to the maid next to her, and said noncommittally, "Take another photo."
"Huh? Isn't it a good shot? Let me see."
Sitting opposite, Higashinohara heard the words, raised his hand and took out a photo from it, glanced at it, then slammed his mouth and said, "It's a good shot."
The words are not finished yet,
He noticed the cold and indifferent face of the empress in the photo, the corners of her lips were slightly raised when she glanced at his face from the corner of the eye for a moment, and he couldn't help but glanced at the other party with a strange expression.
Empress Dorothy Alita has turned her gaze to the side, looking at the rippling lake surface in the drizzle and not looking at Higashinohara, but the snow-white and smooth swan neck is slightly red again.
this woman
It seems to be a little interesting to me, no wonder I kept silent about "domination" after the morning exercise.
It seems that he is still slightly better.
With this in mind,
Higashinohara was pleased with himself but also a little happy.
Although his other identity and this woman in the Judgment Department are his old enemies until the death.
But since such absurd and unimaginable things have happened, he certainly doesn't want the relationship between the two to be based on the cooperation of Chi Guoguo's interests.
"I think this is the only one."
Higashinohara suppressed a weird smile, and said with a sideways look at the empress Dorothy Alita.
He put away his own photo, and immediately took out the remaining two photos from the empress's hand and handed one to the maid, and put the remaining third photo back beside the breakfast in front of the empress.
The maid was at a loss when she saw this.
The young man in front of her was a stranger to her before today.
But at her age, what storms have she not seen? Judging by the momentum, it is not certain that this manor will have another future son-in-law in the future.
Can you pretend that you didn’t hear my uncle’s words?
She had no choice but to turn her consulting gaze to the empress who was looking sideways at the ripples of the lake in the rain.
Unexpectedly, Empress Dorothy Alita did not refute Higashinohara's words, but just sat there without saying a word.
The maid in her fifties this year couldn't understand the situation, so she quickly took the photo that Higashinohara handed over, didn't dare to look at it, put it in a brown calfskin envelope, sealed it, and immediately sued With a bang, he turned around and pushed the dining car away with the camera.
After the sound of footsteps gradually disappeared, Empress Dorothy Alita slowly withdrew her gaze from the lake.
Immediately, she frowned and looked at Higashinohara who always had a weird smile on her face, and her face suddenly turned slightly cold.
"You look very smug."
"No!
Absolutely no such thing! "
Where would Higashinohara admit it.
He is not strong enough at the moment, and he dare not tease this thin-skinned amazing empress any more, so he can only forcefully change the subject and ask, "Will that photo just now be sent to your mother?"
"That's right, she's the only one." The Empress nodded.
"Then will your father see it too?" Higashinohara couldn't help asking.
He remembered that the Morning Empress seemed to have said,
Her mother also married a human man back then, and gave birth to her hybrid.
at this point.
Between humans and humans,
Should be more sympathetic, right?
Unexpectedly, after hearing Higashinohara's words, Empress Dorothy Alita couldn't help but take a deep look at him, and said in a voice that couldn't hear too many ups and downs:
"He's dead, can't be seen."
"Ah? I'm sorry." Higashinohara was slightly taken aback, and was about to make up for something.
The other party's next sentence came to his ears immediately after.
"My grandfather ordered the killing."
"Uh-huh?!"
Higashinohara suddenly raised his head.
Looking for a monthly pass, huh huh~
