TARGET FOUR Suspect target: handsome man coming out of the bath! Part 4
"Hi, lovely ladies." Daugeze also came over, the champagne in his goblet still bubbling. He was wearing a well-made suit, with a charming smile in the sun, just like a prince on a white horse walking out of a fairy tale.
"The owner of the castle is here, so thank you for your hospitality today." As a noble lady, Romani bowed gracefully, and Nicole and Havensting behind her also bowed slightly in a well-mannered manner. I was left standing there in a daze, and at this moment I was still thinking: Oh, why did they bow, and why didn't they call me?
"You're welcome... I..." Before Daogeze could finish his words, Chikeyaro's figure flashed behind him.
One of his arms was bandaged around his neck. He dodged past Dogezeya, stood in front of him, and said to us, "Dear ladies, does my absence make this party dull?" He lost the ability to move his hands and shook his head, still pretending to be handsome.
I felt a chill all over my body, and before I could say anything, I heard Romanee say with disgust: "I didn't notice, I almost didn't know you were here today." After that, she waved the lady's feather fan in her hand, gently fanning the almost imperceptible wind.
"Of course I don't need your attention!" Chikeyaro snorted unhappily and came to me in a few steps. He wanted to act cool, but he fumbled around in his arms with one hand for a long time and finally took out a rose and put it in front of me.
A rose hidden in clothes, with its petals falling off in a mess, appeared wilted in front of me. It was very embarrassing and abrupt. I didn't know whether I should show my insincere love for this withered flower. I was very curious, why did he hide so many roses on his body?
"Haha..." I could only smile foolishly.
Unexpectedly, Chikeyaro became more and more immersed in a world of self-indulgence. He raised his eyebrows at me, and as if he was dancing a waltz, he pressed forward step by step, and finally pushed me to the wall. Now he became even more excited, and stretched out his hand to casually and handsomely wiped back his hair, and was about to raise his other hand to press the wall, but he forgot that this hand had just been subjected to inhuman abuse, and he suddenly felt pain when he raised it. He gritted his teeth and put down his injured hand, pretending to be indifferent stiffly switched to the other hand to perform the legendary wall-dong.
I was surrounded by an embrace, feeling very uncomfortable, and asked in a muffled voice, "Student Chikeyaro, what are you doing?"
Believe it or not, I can turn you into a hornet's nest.
“Shh—” He raised his hand to make a shushing gesture, intending to be cool, but found that his injured arm was inconvenient, so he gave up. “I know that you must be in admiration of my beauty, so you deliberately want to attract my attention, right?”
"Deliberately attracting your attention?" I burst out laughing. "Is that intentional? Don't you think it's too much?" As I said that, I raised my finger and poked his arm hanging in front of his chest.
Chikeyaro let out a loud “Ouch!” and took a big step back, sweat oozing out of his face. “It’s because I’m too handsome that you have to use such an extreme method to get my attention!”
Without the restraint of my arms, my body, which was originally squeezed against the wall, was freed and I could finally stretch my muscles. So, while stretching my arms, I said, "Why do you always live in your own world?" It would be great if you could be a hero like me! Of course, I couldn't say the second half of the sentence, after all, he was on a secret mission!
"Don't deny it!" Chikeyaro took a step forward, grabbed my hand, and said affectionately, "I accept you, don't be embarrassed, I won't pay attention to other suitors!"
How dare you pull my hand! Who gave you the courage? Do you think you are Duverg and can bully me at will? I pulled her hand back with all my strength: "Let go!"
“No, no, I won’t let go!” Chikeyaro was trying to act cute, with his green eyes and thin lips squeezed together, like an unknown species.
"Let go!" I gave him a final warning in a deep voice. If he insisted on not being afraid of death, he would regret not cherishing his good life!
"I won't let go, what can you do to me?" Chikeyaro raised his eyebrows twice, setting a negative example of trying to be cool.
With a crisp snapping sound, I ignored Chikeyaro's screams and howled, and walked out of the banquet hall with resounding steps, leaving Chikeyaro behind with his other wrist broken.
The gentle breeze brought the faint scent of flowers and plants, and the blooming flowerbed outside the window exuded a faint fragrance. On this sunny afternoon, I plunged into the tea room. I placed my hands on the marble dressing table and felt the cool temperature.
What on earth was going on? I bit my lip and recalled what had just happened. At the same time, a big question arose in my heart: Could Chikeyaro really be Baron Shiloh's Mask? No, it shouldn't be. Then why was there Baron Shiloh's Mask equipment in the secret room that I accidentally entered in Dougezeye's house? Could it be that I was mistaken, and that was just a cosplay costume?
It's a mess, a mess, all messed up! I patted my head with both hands, trying to sort out the chaotic thoughts in my head, but it was futile. However, it still brought me a brief moment of clarity - I must truthfully convey what I saw to the organization, or at least contact Duverger to let him know what I had learned.
Thinking of this, I quickly raised my wrist, still fantasizing about the bracelet on it.
The screen was pitch black. No matter how hard I tapped or pressed, the bracelet still didn't respond at all.
"Alas... why is high technology so unreliable?"
I sighed, stopped torturing the bracelet, faced the sun, raised my wrist, straightened my back and raised my chin slightly.
The warm sunlight was so bright that I couldn’t open my eyes. The warm feeling was like a loving hand of God, gently caressing my face.
"What an exquisite bracelet." A magnetic voice brought me back to reality from my intoxication.
I turned around quickly and saw Dougeze looking at me with a smile. He stood at the door and bowed to me politely. In the sunlight, his eyes, like the night sky full of stars, reflected a mysterious and dazzling light.
"Ah! Bracelet..." I was caught off guard and didn't know how to explain the bracelet, so I quickly put my hands behind my back. I said guiltily, "It's not... It's not very delicate, hehe..."
"Really? I don't think so."
Dougeze also maintained the gentlemanly courtesy and walked slowly towards me. The smile was still on his face, but the look in his eyes became more mysterious, like a sleek black panther approaching its prey calmly step by step.
"Haha...you...why are you here?"
As the owner of the villa, shouldn't I entertain guests outside? And... such an embarrassing scene just happened, how can face you?
"I said I just happened to be passing by, do you believe me?"
He smiled and said something that sounded very familiar.
After two seconds of reaction, my face suddenly turned red all the way to my neck. It was so embarrassing. This was what I said to him when I fell into the bathtub!
"me……"
How should I answer him?
I didn't know how to speak, but what was certain at that moment was that my face must have been very red, and must have looked like a spirited tomato.
Seeing that I couldn't answer, he leaned on the dressing table next to me and looked at my embarrassment with interest, then thought for a moment and said, "Ms. Graya, you are much more mysterious than I thought."
"Haha... is that so? It's not that mysterious... hahaha!" I felt like I must be stupid, but I felt more and more embarrassed. I wished I could find a hole in the ground to crawl into!
“Don’t be so modest.”
He maintained a modest smile, raised his hand with well-proportioned joints and slender fingers, slowly put his arm around my body, gently grasped my hand, and then slowly pulled it in front of him, so that the bracelet on my wrist was exposed in the sunlight, reflecting the metallic luster.
"What a beautiful bracelet..." He squinted his eyes slightly, examining the metal bracelet, his eyes sparkling.
He looked closely and turned my wrist slightly to examine the bracelet more closely.
I felt a buzzing sound in my head, and my whole body went numb - he actually... actually made such an ambiguous gesture, and... and even held my hand!
It was a very wonderful experience, my heart beat faster and faster, as if it was about to jump out of my throat.
Why is this ? This is something I have never experienced in the past ten years! I...what's wrong with me?
"Excuse me, Miss Graya, where did you buy this bracelet?" He asked me, who was extremely embarrassed.
Maybe he really wanted this bracelet! I couldn't think and could only stammer, "I bought it at...at...at a booth at the school festival!" I giggled and continued to lie, "I don't remember which booth it was at. After all, I bought it at the school festival last year. It's been a long time! Hehehe..." As I was saying this, I remembered that I wanted to pull my hand back, so I quickly and clumsily pulled my hand out of his warm and clean palm.
“I see…”
He groaned for a moment, then turned around, raised his hand to open the window, and said to the flowers and plants outside the window, "Summer is almost over before I know it."
I heard him suddenly drop the topic, so I took a deep breath and continued with a wry smile: "Yes, yes, autumn is coming soon!"
Finally, there's something I can say!
"You reminded me that this year's school festival is coming soon." He turned his head with a smile, stared down at my eyes, and said meaningfully, "This year's school festival, please take me to that stall to buy a bracelet like yours!"
"Well……"
I suddenly felt as if I had fallen into an icy cave, and watched Dougeze walk out of the tea room with a twitching mouth.
