Standing at the door of Hughton's house, Allen looked at the bottle of "flaming volcano" he was holding. This was obtained from the family warehouse. The stamina and sweetness were not as good as the "blue moonlight" Horn used to give to the old drunkard, but in terms of intensity, it was the best in wine. Ordinary people can't drink such strong alcohol at all, and even if they drink too much, they will die. Of course, with the strength of Major General Hughton, he was just getting drunk.
Allen was afraid that he would sell himself drunk. Thinking of the feeling that his head was about to split after a hangover, he would rather go to the battlefield and fight the enemy.
Knock on the door, and the sound spread all over the house at this moment in the morning. As long as Hugh is at home, there is no reason not to hear. Footsteps sounded behind the door, and then the door opened a gap. In the gap of the door, a pair of misty dark eyes looked at Alan.
"Vera?" Allen tried to call.
The door opened, and Vera was standing behind it. After two years of absence, the girl has grown a lot taller, and she is still thin. Vera seemed to have just got up from the bed, wearing a thin skirt like cicada wings, under the tulle, the young girl's body/body could be vaguely seen.
"Grandpa hasn't come back yet..." Vera's small face didn't show any expression, and she wasn't even surprised to see Alan who suddenly appeared. She still looks like Fu Jingtian, as quiet as the air that makes it easy for people to ignore the past.
Ellen shook the spirits in his hand and said: "I just came back from Outland, where is Teacher Hughton, is he out?"
"Grandpa, he went to morning exercises. He said that he needs to keep a clear mind to get his work done..." Vera's breathing suddenly became hurried, her chest rising and falling. The person also swayed, looking extremely painful.
Allen was surprised, put the spirits down quickly, and stepped forward: "Vera, are you uncomfortable?"
"I..." Vera couldn't say a word, her eyes closed, and she lost consciousness.
Allen hugged her quickly, only to feel that the skin on the tentacles was cold, smooth and silky. Vera fainted in his arms, with black hair and white skin, the delicate clavicle line and the faintly visible undulating curve of the neckline were revealed. Allen picked her up quickly and sent her back to the bedroom upstairs. Suddenly someone outside the door yelled: "Where is the **** kid, dare to touch my Weiwei!"
Looking back, Hughton, with a vertical beard, rushed in like an angry lion. In the eyes that were gradually lit by Yuanli, Allen saw his dumbfounded face.
Seeing that it is Alan, Hughton shouldn't take back the source of the urge, and said in surprise: "When did your kid ran back?"
"It's been a few days since I came back. I just came back from the surface yesterday, otherwise I should have come to visit you, the teacher." Allen said.
"What's wrong with Vivi?" Hughton frowned and glanced at his granddaughter.
Ellen shook his head and said: "She fainted suddenly, Vera has this symptom all the time?"
"Nonsense, she just turned pale, but she is in good health. In the past two years, she has constructed her own circuit and formed a mark. How can she be dizzy when she is dizzy." Hughton said with a beard.
Vera moaned and opened her eyes. Seeing himself lying in Ellen's arms, there was a cramp in Furui Bubo's eyes. This humane expression made the girl look more angry. Allen put her down quickly, and Hughton reached out to touch her forehead. Vera gently pushed his hand away and said, "I'm fine, grandpa."
"Why are you dizzy if you are okay?"
"Because I saw something that I shouldn't see..." Vera walked to the attic and turned her face at the stairway: "I can't see your future clearly, or that your future is blocked by flames. . It is like a curtain of fire that is about to ignite the whole world, blocking my eyes..."
Leaving these words, the girl left like a ghost.
Obviously, this sentence was addressed to Allen. Vera has always had the ability to peer into the future, although what she sees will only be one of the impossibility. But it should be the first time that she can't see clearly like this time. Her coma should be related to the flame that blocked her eyes. That was a backlash of ability. Allen looked at Hughton, and the old general raised his hand and said, "Don’t ask me, I’ve never seen Vera’s engraving. She also avoids talking about her own abilities. I only know that since With the engraving, the future she can see is a hundred times clearer than before."
"If you can't even see through her..." Hughton looked at Alan with a strange expression.
Allen shook his head and smiled freely: "It's not a good thing to not see through. Anyway, in the future, as long as you keep moving forward, don't you know?"
"It's okay for you to say that. Let me see, is this the wine you brought? Blazing volcano, good fellow, are you going to get me drunk?"
"In the early morning, the teacher should stop drinking, right?"
"Idiot, there is no time to drink!"
In the attic, Vera stands against the wall at the corner of the stairs. Allen’s words were heard by her, and the girl sighed faintly: "If you keep moving forward, you will push yourself into the sea of fire."
"What is the future of flame..."
In the same morning, the voice of a young girl was heard from time to time in the attic of the Morsen Manor, making this morning a bit noisy.
"No, this one is too plain, I have changed to another one."
"This one won't work either. The waistline is not designed to be narrowed, which makes me look bloated!"
In the study, old Kate was sipping black tea, with a listening expression from time to time. The butler next to her smiled and said: "Miss Adele seems to be keen to wear women's clothing recently, and she receives her orders every day."
"This is a good thing, otherwise it would really give me a headache to dress like a tomboy every day. But then, Adele seems to be irritated." Old Kate smiled.
The butler whispered in his ear: "I heard that Master Ellen came back this time and brought a female companion."
Old Kate suddenly realized: "It turns out that Adele, my family, is preparing for war."
"I'm afraid so."
At this moment someone knocked on the door, the butler opened the door, and there was a servant outside. After the two whispered a few words, the butler walked back: "Someone wants to see Miss Adele."
"Who is it?"
"Young Master of the Jin Family." The butler said.
Old Kate raised her head, patted her head and said: "I remember, they formed an alliance with the little guys. Let someone inform Adele."
"Good lord."
In the attic, the little maid Sophie sat down on the floor, looking at Adele who was almost buried in clothes and said: "Miss has always been used to wearing men's clothes, why suddenly I want to change to women's clothes?"
Adele was looking in the mirror, adjusting the dress on her body and said: "If you don't dress more ladylike, Alan will treat me like a brother and forget that I am a girl!"
Sophie said vaguely with a small face: "Isn't the lady who doesn't mind?"
"Idiot, that's for others! Ellen, Ellen is different!" Adele gritted her teeth and said, "Besides, I can't lose to that double ponytail!"
Someone knocked on the door and said, "Miss Adele, Master Jin Liancheng wants to see you."
"What is he doing?" Adele wondered, and called Sophie again: "Help me change my clothes."
After a while, she changed back to the men's clothes she was used to and came to the living room. Jin Liancheng was sitting in danger. Adele picked up a bunch of grapes in the fruit bowl on the table and threw them into her mouth one by one. She sat across from Jinlian City like a dangling nobleman and said, "Early in the morning, you are looking for me. Something?"
Jin Liancheng smiled and said, "I'm here to say goodbye."
"Farewell?"
"I didn't say that a few days ago, I'm going to the surface to deal with some family affairs. I have to leave today."
"Oh, a good journey." Adele said heartlessly.
Jin Liancheng shook his head and said, "Adele, I only make a special trip to say goodbye to you."
Adele heard that there was something in his words, frowning and said: "If you want to say anything, just say it straightforwardly. I hate circumstance."
"That's fine." Jin Liancheng nodded and said, "Since Alan came back, have you noticed that you have become different from usual?"
"So what?" Adele said nonchalantly.
"Adele, we are friends. From the standpoint of friends, I have to remind you. In my opinion, you are playing with fire."
The atmosphere suddenly changed in politeness.
Adele looked at Jin Liancheng solemnly and said, "What do you mean?"
"Am I not clear enough? Adele, do you really like Alan? Or do you want to do something with Alan?" Jin Liancheng said indifferently: "But no matter what you think, I have to say, Qian Never use feelings as a bargaining chip. In our alliance, Leon and Allen will become important fulcrums in the foreseeable future. I don’t want one of the fulcrums to collapse because of your unwise behavior."
"What's more, feelings are a double-edged sword. Once used badly, it will not only hurt others, but also hurt yourself." Jin Liancheng sighed, "You and Allen are my good friends. I don’t want to see you turn back because of this kind of thing in the future. Adele, you are very smart. Because of this, I worry that you will not be able to get out of the circle in your heart."
Jin Liancheng stood up and said: "Leon will be back soon. He may have some trouble, but it may not be impossible to solve it. After he returns, plus Allen's position in the family is getting heavier. In my opinion , You may not necessarily have to leave the family to make a difference. With friends like us, you still have a place in the family."
"Simply say this, I'm leaving."
Adele did not see off the guests. She sat in the living room, silently ate the bunch of grapes in her hand, and then clapped her hands and stood up. Outside the window, Jin Liancheng had already boarded a speeding car and went away. Adele whispered softly: "You are right, but unfortunately I am not one of the three of you. And what I want is not the only one!"
