Chapter 3248 Contempt From Sosia
Alice knew Barn.
In the battle that cut off the second apostle Held's control over her consciousness, the four great sword masters gathered together.
Although these four people acted together and caused some damage to Held's chain of consciousness, this scene was deeply engraved in Alice's memory.
Mainly because she had already developed feelings for Xi Lan at that time, so she naturally paid more attention to Xi Lan's companions.
During the time when Xi Lan left Zephyr Continent and went to the Demon Realm, Alice lived in a haze every day, only paying some attention to the other three of the four sword masters.
It's no wonder that the four great sword masters are recognized by Zephyr Continent. They are four companions of equal strength and irreconcilable relationship. Almost every once in a while, the four of them will get together to have a drink or talk loudly.
Alice believes that as long as she always pays attention to the other three people, she can first-hand grasp the news of Xi Lan's return.
In the days that followed, Alice continued to develop informants and monitor the three sword masters until the adventurers besieged the maker Luke, until Held personally came to Zephyr Continent.
After that battle, Held took Barn away, but ignored Alice who became her puppet.
When she learned that Barn had left Zephyr Continent with Held, Alice felt a glimmer of hope in her heart. She thought that since Barn was a good friend of Xi Lan, would it be possible for him to bring Xi Lan to the Demon Realm this time? What about bringing it back?
After all, Zephyr Continent is Baan’s home!
This idea lingered in Alice's mind until Aganzuo lost her voice and until Bwanga died of old age in the snowy mountains.
Alice has been waiting for the news about Xilan and Barn for too long.
When she heard the news related to it again, it was bad news that shocked and saddened her.
Xilan is dead.
Baan killed it.
Looking at Alice's sad eyes and feeling the pain radiating from her body, I also felt sad.
But luckily, Alice didn't know the truth.
If she knew that Xi Lan was not dead, but did not want to face her again, and was even preparing to marry a wife and have children in the devil world, I believe Alice would definitely collapse.
Yes, she will.
Anyone who has waited for thousands of years and suddenly finds that the result is contrary to his expectations will be unable to bear the blow of reality and will completely collapse.
After the collapse, you may be better, or you may be heartbroken.
But no matter which of these two results, it is not what I want to see.
I believe that the only good ending to this love affair is to make her think that Xi Lan is dead, so that she can retain the best moment in her heart.
As for my previous idea of chasing Alice, it was actually just a momentary lust.
I know very well that Alice is not a puppet. She has always had independent thoughts and emotions, but her body structure is different from other people. In other words, Alice is actually a unique human being.
If one day she can fall in love with me, then I might find a way to pursue her.
but not now.
"Xi Lan. Have you brought back Xi Lan's bones?"
Alice choked.
I shook my head: "They have all been buried, and tens of millions of years have passed."
I didn’t continue to edit it, because the more I edited, the more holes there would be.
At just a young age, Alice was already crying into tears.
Shallan stayed with Alice silently, stroking her back.
Sosia was still holding the wine glass, frowning slightly, as if deep in thought.
After a moment, she winked at me, turned and walked towards the back hall.
After hesitating for a moment, I followed him.
We came to the back hall and found a room. We sat across from each other. Sosia picked up a bottle of wine, pulled out the cork, filled the glass slowly, pushed the stem of the glass with her green-white index finger, and brought it to me. , said: "Tell me, I want to hear the truth."
"I told the truth."
"Don't tell me any more nonsense like Barn killed Xi Lan. I don't believe it," Sosia said leisurely: "I knew the four of them earlier than Shalan and Alice, and I know them more deeply. Xi Lan Lan is not Baan’s enemy, but his friend. Baan is a very interesting person. He may hurt his friends, but he will never take their lives. This is his bottom line.”
"." After a few seconds of silence, I spoke again and said, "Those are the truth."
Seeing this, Sosia was not annoyed. She took a sip of wine and continued: "You don't know something. Moonlight Tavern is not just a tavern. It also has another identity, which is one of the largest intelligence organizations in Moonlight City. One, when I say this, you should understand what I mean, right?"
When I didn't answer, she continued: "Although I can't get information from you, I can get information from the people around you, for example, the little girl in blue next to you,"
Hearing this, I frowned: "What are you going to do to her?"
"Don't worry," Sosia said: "Our Moonlight Tavern's intelligence gathering methods are absolutely professional and gentle. We only use chatting to induce answers and never threaten. So you can rest assured."
Having said this, I stopped hiding it and glanced worriedly toward the door.
"The sound insulation effect of this room is good," Sosia said lightly, "As long as there is no loud noise, you can't even hear a word outside."
I exhaled lightly and said slowly: "Xi Lan is not dead. He is living a good life in the devil world."
"Didn't he ever think about coming back?" Sosia asked lightly.
"I thought about it at first, but after several failed assassinations, I stopped thinking about it. Now he is even more accustomed to the life in the Demon World. It can be said that he is half a Demon Realm person."
"No wonder" Sosia snorted and said lightly: "The four great sword masters have many unfulfilled promises, and Alice is not the least of them. If he really wanted to come back, he would have come back long ago. Now it seems that this Man, you are really unreliable.”
"Actually, you can't say that," I tried to retort: "At least Xilan has been thinking about Alice in the devil world for many years."
"A hundred years?" Sosia asked.
"Well, probably not."
I was not sure, because when I talked with Xi Lan, my initial judgment was that Xi Lan gradually forgot about Alice in the years after leaving Alice. It was even said that Xi Lan once visited the custom of the devil world. Shop many times.
"So, that man is unreliable." Sosia's tone suddenly turned cold: "I wonder if you know that when he was secretly in love with Alice, he already had a family and children. Hmm, poor Alice. This silly girl is so fascinated by her that he is willing to give up everything as long as he can be with Xi Lan."
At the end, she added: "It's sad and ridiculous."
