"He's crazy?"
"He was already very humane. He even covered the child's head with his clothes."
“……”
Mr. Jefferson was briefly silent during the conversation with the bodyguard. After a moment, he found his voice: "It sounds a little strange."
The bodyguard couldn't think about what was strange, and his tone was serious: "I'll step forward first and tell you to stop!"
After saying that, he took a big step and was in front of him: "Mr. Komnenos! Mr. Jefferson is looking for you. Please stop..."
Komnenos looked at him: "You're here just in time. Where is the person in charge of operating the ropeway? Call him over."
When he finished speaking, the little duck raised his hand and plucked the overly large coat wrapped around him, and a little head popped out.
Golden head.
turned black.
The bodyguard was stunned and glanced at the blond wig at Komnenos' feet. It turned out that it was not his head that fell off, but his wig. This made him sigh in relief.
"You want to go down the mountain?" the bodyguard asked after coming back to his senses.
Before Komnenos could nod, the bodyguard followed up and said, "The ropeway can only take you to the opposite peak. It's too dark and the fog is heavy now. It's too dangerous to go down the mountain."
Komnenos asked: "Is there your husband's residence on the mountain opposite?"
"have……"
"Then let's go there," Komnenos said.
And the bodyguard was surprised to find that these words seemed to be spoken to the little girl he held in his arms.
The bodyguard suppressed his surprise and continued: "But hot water and heating are temporarily unavailable there."
Komnenos: "..."
His cold face seemed to become even colder.
"Forget it," he said.
The bodyguard could clearly feel that he was not in a good mood.
"Can you put her down? What do you think if we go back to the banquet hall now?" The bodyguard stretched out his hand.
Comnenus lowered his eyes, stared at his hands and asked, "What do you want to do?"
The bodyguard thought it was ridiculous, didn't he have to ask you what you want to do?
"You want to hold her?" Comnenus asked.
The bodyguard nodded: "Yes, I will pick her up. The position you are standing on is very high. There is no extra guardrail next to it. She can easily fall..."
"Get out of the way." Comnenus said coldly, then held the duck tighter, and walked back past the bodyguard.
The bodyguard's heart was in his throat, and his eyes followed Comnenus' figure closely. But fortunately... there was no tragedy of being thrown off the plank road.
The little girl was held in Comneno's arms, her chin resting on the man's broad shoulder.
She's looking at me. The bodyguard thought. And there was no trace of fear on her face...
Opening the door at the end of the glass walkway with one hand, a warmth swept through the body again.
Jefferson's voice followed closely: "Comnenos, you..."
His voice stopped suddenly, and then returned to normal: "Very good, still alive. ... Then return it to the ghost family."
Jefferson lowered his eyes and said to the duckling: "Children, leaving adults is not a good choice."
The little duck responded in a low voice: "Well, I picked an adult for myself."
"What?"
Komneno pointed at himself: "Obviously, I am the reliable adult chosen by her."
Jefferson was confused: "Hey, what's going on?"
Komneno ignored him and only asked the duckling: "Do you want to go back?"
"not going back."
Comnenus curled up his lips, feeling as if he just wanted to open a blind box, but in the end he won the ultimate prize.
Comnenus asked Jefferson, "Did you hear that?"
"Why?" Jefferson murmured, "Why?"
"But you have to hide me better." The duckling whispered.
Comnenus paused: "Huh?"
"From now on, I am a missing person. You have to hide me so that I can no longer be seen by others."
Jefferson was confused. what is this?
She wrote the script herself?
"Why?" Komnenos was also puzzled. "The evil dragon has obtained the treasure, so of course it should show it off to the whole world."
"Because I want to kill Wei Lin." Xiaoya said softly.
Jefferson thought he heard wrong: "What is she talking about? Is she really a child from a ghost family?"
Komnenos couldn't describe the mood at this moment.
He thought she would load Wei Lin's bullet and then point the gun at him.
But in the end it was she who wanted to kill Wei Lin.
It can't be...it's for him, right? Comunen also knew that this idea was too ridiculous, so he calmed down a little and asked: "Wei Lin offended you? Oh, I understand. The Gui family has not had a qualified heir for a long time, which has led to the Gui family's People gradually regard Wei Lin as the leader, but now there is another one, and Wei Lin wants to compete with you for power..."
Jefferson raised an eyebrow.
So that's it.
So... is this little girl planning to take advantage of the hostile relationship between Komnenos and the Gui family?
"You want to use my hand to get rid of Wei Lin? Huh? Pretend to be kidnapped by me?" Comnenus asked the question in Jefferson's mind.
But at this time the little girl shook her head.
The little duck asked: "A lot of people came to the banquet today?"
"yes……"
"Where's Sally? Are you there?"
"He's not in now."
"What about Kurokawa Susumu?"
"he is."
Jefferson touched his chin: "The names you mentioned seem to be enemies of the Gui family."
The little duck nodded: "Well, just pick one of them." They are enemies anyway.
Jefferson was a little surprised: "Then why not choose Komnenos?"
"Because from today on, the Gui family and he are no longer enemies, so he can't bear the blame." Xiaoya said decisively.
"……You decide?"
"Yes." Xiaoya nodded and said slowly with the help of a translator: "From this moment on, I was kidnapped by Kurokawa Susumu. The person who came with me was Wei Lin. He has to bear certain responsibilities, so he must accept it. Investigate. During the investigation, my uncle will find evidence of Wei Lin's betrayal of the family."
"That's it," the duck concluded.
Jefferson was silent.
After a while, the voice came again: "How old are you?"
"Seven years old."
Komnenos was elated and a little proud.
He asked Jefferson, "Is she smart?"
Jefferson nodded.
But what are you happy about? What does this have to do with you? Jefferson couldn't understand.
"Say it in front of me, are you afraid that I will tell you?" Jefferson looked at Xiaoya.
The duck asked: "Would this be detrimental to your interests?"
"No." Jefferson paused, "But it doesn't benefit me either."
"It's good for you."
"What?"
"The Komnenos and the Gui Family stand with you."
"Ha, ha, ha, okay, even if you can make a statement on behalf of your family. Here in Komnenos..."
The little duck turned to look at Komnenos.
Comnenus said nothing.
Instead, Jefferson continued: "I can't think of a reason for him to accommodate you."
"Do you know why I don't make enemies of Komnenos?" the duck asked him.
"Why?"
"Because I like him very much. He is like my father." Xiaoya paused and said, "This is also the reason why Komnenos accommodated me."
Jefferson looked at Comnenus with a sigh: "Is that so?"
Komnenos' eyes moved slightly and he said in a deep voice, "Yes."
She firmly chose him.
What else could he do?
"But kids, there's a problem now... I won't allow anyone to be kidnapped at my banquet." Jefferson spread his hands.
