Mystery: The Witch and the Calamity

The experience just now can be summed up in one sentence, that is "Miss "Justice" introduces you to the heirs to the title of Backlund".

If she stayed any longer, Louise felt that all the young men attending the banquet would find Audrey, and bring herself along... By that time, her face would almost freeze with a smile, so she slipped away as soon as possible.

Prince Edsac will soon be tragic, and Duke Negan will also be killed by the "Apostle of Desire"... Well, given the current hostile relationship between Louise and Jason Beria, maybe the result will become What does it look like!

In other words, why didn't I see Major General Brett at the banquet tonight... Since arriving in Backlund, Louise also conducted some investigations on the sidelines, but found that Brett seemed to have disappeared completely, and no news was gained. .

Of course, there is a reason why she hasn't completely opened up the situation in the upper class of Backlund, but with Brett's character, she shouldn't be so unknown!

After leaving Miss Justice, no one took the initiative to post it. Louise gained a brief moment of cleanliness. She wandered among the crowd at the banquet without a definite target.

Until, she saw Viscountess Connor, who was talking and laughing with a lady.

The woman was wearing an off-the-shoulder hollow gown, with delicate collarbone, fair skin, and long black hair flowing down smoothly.

Louise walked over there.

The Viscountess Connor noticed Louise's movements, bid farewell to the lady politely, and then greeted her.

"I was still looking for you just now!" the Viscountess said with a smile on her face.

Louise saluted lightly and explained softly:

"I went to thank Miss Audrey who invited me to the banquet, but she was too popular and was chatting with Prince Edsac, so I took my leave and left."

Prince Edsaac... The Viscountess glanced at the beautiful and generous Louise from the Southern Continent, and was even more surprised by her. She has established a good relationship with Miss Audrey in such a short time after coming to Backlund. relationship, and even met a prince, what a stroke of luck...

On the contrary, there are rumors that His Majesty the King wishes Prince Edsaac to marry Miss Audrey, but this topic is obviously not suitable for chatting with Louise on this occasion... So, the Viscountess simply uttered the question that had troubled her for two days :

"I'm curious, how did you become friends with Miss Audrey?"

Louise smiled when she heard the words, and opened her mouth for reasons:

"Miss Audrey's curiosity is relatively strong, and she is more interested in mysterious and weird stories. I have lived in the Southern Continent for a long time, and I have heard more about such stories."

The Viscountess showed an expression of "I see", which was almost the answer she had guessed.

Louise was worried that the other party would talk about Viscount Greint again, which is not impossible... So she randomly picked up a topic and asked:

"Who was that lady you were talking to just now?"

"She is Baron Brett's wife, Lady Kolia," replied the Viscountess.

Brett... the Baron... it's so hard to find, it's so easy to come by!

Louise pretended to be curious and asked, "Baron Brett?"

The Viscountess was somewhat ambiguous, and she simply answered:

"Baron Brett is a major general. He used to serve in the Southern Continent. He just returned to Backlund some time ago and was assigned to other duties. He didn't show up for a long time. That's why Madam Kelia came to tonight's banquet alone."

It really was him! No wonder I haven't heard about Major General Brett. It turns out that there are other reasons... He won't be assigned to do work related to human trafficking again... Louise's thoughts have already flown out of the clouds , Jian Jian said a few perfunctory words to the Viscountess, which made the other party smile, and then the two parted.

From a glance, Mrs. Ke Liya was standing alone in the corner of the banquet hall, shaking the red wine glass in her hand. The blue-green striped skirt on her body did not look tacky at all, but gave her a more independent temperament.

Louise stepped forward with a smile on her face and said, "Mrs. Kelia, hello."

"Beautiful lady, I don't seem to have seen you before." Ke Liya said, her voice was relatively cold, but her tone was very kind.

"This is indeed our first meeting." Louise's attitude was very frank, and then she explained: "I have been living in the Southern Continent before, and I admire Major General Bright's achievements very much. I have always wanted to meet him, who I always miss it, this time I came to Backlund..."

As she was talking, Louise noticed that Mrs. Kolia's face was turning cold a little bit, and she seemed a little...annoyed, which made her a little puzzled.

Ke Liya is not in a good mood. It should be said that after she married Major General Bright, she learned about his character and behavior, and gradually became silent...

She stared at Louise in front of her. She was young, beautiful, and full of energy. Now that she had even chased after Backlund, Kelia even had the urge to cry...

She coldly interrupted the other party's speech, and asked directly: "What do you want to do, just say it."

Louise sensed that the other party's emotions were not quite right, but she didn't know why, so she could only reply cautiously:

"It's nothing serious. I just heard that a friend who lived in the Southern Continent felt a little emotional for a while, and wanted to talk to him."

Ke Liya was unmoved at all, still sullen, and said flatly:

"That may disappoint you. Brett hasn't been home for a long time, and I don't know where he is."

"If there is nothing else, please forgive me, I still have something to do, I have to take a step first."

"You are welcome."

Naturally, Louise had no reason to stop her, but she just felt a little baffled, why did she provoke the other party...

Seeing Mrs. Kelia's posture, she actually left the banquet directly...

How strange... Louise thought, it seems that she needs to know more about Brett, but the breakthrough has been found, and the road ahead will be much easier.

…………

"You won't keep eating after you leave me, will you?"

Audrey got rid of the strike-up person who was about to move, found Louise again, and found that the other person was still eating, so she asked this question.

Louise raised her glass and took a sip of black tea, swallowed the last piece of shrimp in her mouth, and finally said:

"Of course not, I just don't want to disappoint the delicious food."

Audrey was just joking, she pursed her lips and smiled, and said:

"Come with me, Susie has always wanted to see you!"
