Chapter 35 Hazel's Decision

After listening to Councilman Macht's answer, combined with the previous situation, Klein preliminarily judged that the mouse in the suburban manor should be the "thief" demigod next to Hazel. As for why the other party went crazy and bit Hazel Well, that's temporarily unknown.

He nodded slightly, clockwise four times on his chest and said:

"May the Goddess bless her."

After finishing speaking, he passed the master and entered the hall, waiting for tonight's dance to start.

…………

In a certain bedroom on the third floor, Hazel was sitting on the easy chair with some sluggishness, with her feet curled up.

Her left hand was wrapped in a thick bandage, and no blood had seeped out. Her expression was gloomy, and her usual arrogance was nowhere to be seen.

In the outskirts of the manor, after being bitten suddenly by the teacher who turned into a rat, she has been in a similar state. The whole person seems to be muddled and not clear enough. It seems that what was bitten was not the tiger's mouth, but the heart.

For Hazel, although the cultivation of arrogance stems from the education she received since she was a child, her learning talent beyond ordinary people, her excellent appearance, her family in the upper class, and the idea that she is much more mature than her peers, but when she comes into contact with Before supernatural powers, this kind of mentality is actually in the normal category, and it doesn't make her feel that she is completely different from others, and she is essentially superior to ordinary people.

Therefore, the teacher who maintained her pride, represented her adventures, and symbolized the source of her strength, suddenly became like a real mouse, not only became slurred in speech, but also bit her irrationally , She suffered a huge blow, and couldn't help wondering whether the supernatural power represented surpassing ordinary people or approaching monsters.

While her thoughts were racing, Hazel unconsciously put a strand of dark green hair behind her ears, feeling agitated by the melodious music coming from downstairs.

At this moment, she heard the creaking sound of the door opening, she turned her head and looked over a little dullly.

What came in was a gray mouse with smooth and shiny hair. Its eyes were darker than those of its kind, almost dark red.

"Hazel." The mouse said in a low voice.

Hazel was startled for a moment, then overjoyed, quickly turned over and stood up, and blurted out:

"Teacher, you, have you recovered?"

As soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly saw one gray mouse after another emerging from the corner of the bedroom, the entrance of the balcony, and the bottom of the bed. They all had dark red eyes, but they could only make a creaking sound.

Hazel took a step back in fright, tripped over the edge of the easy chair, her body wobbled, almost fell, and finally regained her balance.

At this time, she found that the red-eyed mice were all gone, and the door was tightly closed and never opened.

Everything just now seemed to be just her hallucination, or a nightmare caused by worry in her heart!

After a while of silence, Hazel pursed her lips and exhaled like a sigh.

She sat down again, raised her hands and pinched the foreheads on both sides.

Squeezing and pinching, she frowned slightly, always feeling that just now was too vague and not real enough.

The dark brown eyes turned slightly, and Hazel pulled out the necklace she was wearing around her neck, and held it in her palm.

The main body of the necklace is seven emerald green transparent stones, surrounded by a circle of small diamonds, and the distance between them is exactly the same.

At this time, one of the stones lighted up slowly, exuding emerald green light, which made Hazel's face extremely moist, and made her eyes protrude with strange and mysterious symbols one after another.

All the previous images resurfaced in the mind of this dark green long-haired girl, and gradually became clear from a vague dreamlike state.

After examining one scene after another, Hazel noticed some clues, and confirmed that she was not dreaming just now, nor did she have a short-term hallucination in a trance, but fell into a hallucination for nearly ten seconds.

"Deciphering Scholar"!

"This..." Hazel's dark brown eyes suddenly widened,

A word full of fear was murmured unconsciously in his mouth.

She stood up abruptly, looked around hastily, but found nothing.

But the more this happened, the more she panicked, because she didn't know what would happen next, and she didn't know what the person who created the illusion wanted to do!

The only thing she can be sure of is that the other party's level and strength in the supernatural field are far superior to her own!

This shattered any remaining pride in her heart.

After a few minutes, the entire bedroom was still quiet, and the melody downstairs was brisk, which made people intuitively think of lively dance steps.

Hazel finally came to her senses, feeling that nothing should happen in the future.

Only then did she have the energy and mood to think about the purpose of the one who created the illusion in the dark.

Amidst the ups and downs of various thoughts, Hazel suddenly had a guess:

The one just now came for his teacher!

He confirmed the teacher's current state from himself through the illusion!

Teacher friend or foe? He must have gone to the teacher now, what should I do? He probably doesn't know where the teacher is hiding... No, the neighbors around me know that I was bitten by a crazy mouse in the suburban manor... Hazel's heart fluttered, and the hand holding the necklace became more and more forceful .

She couldn't decide whether the person just now was good or bad, and she didn't know what to do.

She wanted to go to the suburban manor and tell the teacher about this matter, but she was afraid of being in danger and becoming a victim.

Moreover, her teacher seems to have lost most of her communication skills at present, and even if she is reminded, she may not be able to figure out the specific meaning.

Hazel stood up unknowingly, and paced back and forth in the bedroom. Finally, she made up her mind, pressed her lips tightly, walked to the door, and said to the personal maid outside:

"I'm a little tired. I'm going to sleep now. Don't let anyone disturb me."

"Yes, Miss." The maid responded immediately.

After closing the door, Hazel began to change into clothes that were more convenient for her to move around, her expression was very serious, her teeth biting her lips lightly.

She finally decided to go to the suburban manor to remind the teacher.

She doesn't want to become a person who looks arrogant but is actually timid, who loses all principles when encountering any danger!

That would make her look down on herself!

When Hazel took advantage of the fact that the bodyguards were focusing on the dancers, she entered the garden from the tap water pipe on the balcony, and left No. 39 Böklund Street, Klein was holding a glass of sweet sparkling wine with ice cubes. Discuss the business world of the Southern Continent with a few gentlemen.

He turned his head slightly sideways, glanced at the garden, and already discovered Hazel's actions with the help of his intuition.

...Although she is not a girl with a pleasing personality, she still has a conscience... Klein nodded invisibly and praised in his heart.

He wasn't worried about Hazel's actions at all, because it would take 3 to 5 hours to go from Berklund Street in the North District to Macht's Manor in the northwest suburb of Backlund, even if he took a carriage, and he was here Before, he could find an excuse to leave the ball, teleport it directly, and confirm the situation.

——Although the Macht family’s manor is in the northwest suburb, it is located on the other side of the Tussock River. Therefore, if you want to reach it, you must first detour to a place with a bridge. At the end of the day, head to the south area of ​​the bridge. At night, you can only consider one of the three long bridges. It is inevitable to spend 5 hours overall.

Of course, because Klein has used the "Tinder" glove and read the information about the "2-105" blood vessel thief, he has a certain understanding of the ability of the "thief" path, so he suspects that Hazel, who has higher-level items, can "steal "The bird's flying ability can use the short maintenance time to directly cross the river in mid-air. In this way, she may reach the destination in only 3 hours.

But no matter what, I'm faster than her... Klein looked away, thinking about who he would invite to be his dance partner next.

…………

At 10 o'clock in the night, the Elk Manor located in the northwest suburb of Backlund.

It originally belonged to a viscount, and it has a history of hundreds of years. Councilor Macht bought it after getting married, and spends a sum of money on major repairs every year, so that he can invite friends to vacation on weekends in autumn and winter.

At this time, the deacon of the manor is arranging for the servants and maids to check various places and close the doors and windows tightly. This is what they do every day before going to bed.

After several maids came out of the wine cellar, they went straight to the kitchen area to confirm that all the flames that should be extinguished had been extinguished.

No sooner had they arrived than they heard a creaking sound, and peering over, they saw a gray-haired mouse gnawing at the leg of a long table.

The mouse seemed to be aware of their gaze, and instead of running away, it turned its head and stared at them with slightly red eyes.

At the same time, more squeaks were heard. On the beams of the house, beside the lockers, in various utility rooms, and by the stove where hot water was being boiled, one mouse after another with red eyes slid in. come out.

The maids were startled and almost screamed.

As the lower class of society, they are no strangers to mice, and even killed some, but it was the first time they encountered so many at once, and their spirits were extremely shocked.

"Let's go find Gerd, and Gerd and the others will deal with it." A maid exited the kitchen and suggested rather frightenedly.

Another maid nodded again and again:

"Miss Hazel was bitten by a crazy mouse before... These don't look normal either!"

While talking, they retreated farther and farther away, and finally left the kitchen.

At this time, on the long table in the kitchen, a figure was quickly outlined. He was wearing a white shirt, a black vest, a dark formal suit, a half-height silk top hat, and a pair of shiny leather boots.

Pressing the hat, the figure slowly raised his head, looked around, revealing black hair and brown eyes, thin face, sharp edges and corners, just like Gehrman Sparrow.

——After leaving the ball early, Klein returned to Dawn Dantès's mansion, entered the bedroom, and brought the "winner" Enyuni directly to him.

Of course, the latter was placed outside the manor by him so that he could switch positions at any time.

As mice came into view, Klein pulled off the human leather glove on his left palm, and turned his gaze to the area where the flowers were planted in the manor.

Almost at the same time, all the mice in the kitchen vibrated, and their movements became sluggish, but it didn't take long for them to return to normal.

They have become the secret puppets of the "crafty mage".

And Klein's current limit for controlling marionettes is 50, and there will be an increase after digesting the potion!
