Zhuo Lan took a nap with the children for a while, but after smelling the unique smell of elves, she still fell into a deep sleep.As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw that Hikalesh had come out of the bathroom.

The blood race thought he had slept for a long time, but took a look at the communicator and found that it was still early, so he lay on the bed and asked, "Why did you wake up so early? You only slept for less than four hours, right?"

"...I'm not sleepy." Hikalesh sat on the edge of the bed and smoothed the vampire's blond hair, "If you're still sleepy, go on sleeping."

"Is our personality set upside down? The blood race won't be sleepy, right? I'm here to accompany you, why don't I sleep if you don't sleep." Zhuo Lan sat up and looked at the elf carefully, "You wake up Forget it early, why do you still take a shower together?"

I just washed it before going to bed, and washed it again when I woke up, as if the bed was not a bed, but a quagmire.

Hikalesh said casually, "It's a little hot."

Zhuo Lan glanced suspiciously at the air conditioner panel: "...hot?"

"Well." Hikalesh said, "Wash it if you want, there are so many reasons."

"Isn't it?" Zhuo Lan blinked, "Frankly, let me be lenient, did you escape into the bathroom to 'do something bad'?"

Hikalesh was taken aback: "...what?"

"Although you have cleaned up the 'criminal traces' completely, I have lived for thousands of years after all, and I can understand some things after a little deduction." Sometimes you get up early in the morning to exercise, and then you go into the bathroom to take a shower. So is it real exercise, or is there another 'exercise' to cover up in front of me?"

"..." Hikalesh narrowed his eyes, "I don't know what you're talking about."

"Okay, shy kid." Zhuo Lan shrugged, "Actually, you've grown to... you're almost eighteen years old, right? It's normal to grow to this stage. It's all normal, so there's no need to hide it like this Cover up. Of course, if you feel embarrassed, I can temporarily open another room for you. "

Hikalesh couldn't pretend to be stupid, and simply responded indifferently: "...No need."

Zhuo Lan said: "What about X education?"

Hikalesh: "No!"

"Is it really not necessary?" Zhuo Lan said, "I can ask Chris or your great elders to help you figure out the age identification of the Starnet account. After reaching adulthood, I can grant you permission. The comfort intelligence of Starnet , you can have whatever you want..."

"No need! That's not...!" Hikalesh interrupted the bloody salesman, but he didn't finish what he blurted out.He stood up and looked at Zhuo Lan condescendingly: "Since you are not going to sleep, then change your clothes."

Zhuo Lan: "Why are you suddenly cueing this process? You want to watch me change clothes?"

Hikalesh turned around and went to the balcony, drawing the curtains and closing the glass door in the middle.

Zhuo Lan looked at the back of this young man who was almost fleeing, and raised his eyebrows.

——This kind of performance, do you not want it, or do you want it too much...

***

After washing up, Zhuo Lan ordered breakfast at the hotel.It is mainly called for the elves, and the blood race is purely for companionship.

Today's asparagus was fried very fragrant, Zhuo Lan couldn't help but eat a few more bites.Hikalesh noticed and simply passed him the whole plate of asparagus.Zhuo Lan was immediately happy: "Why do you give it to me? Eat yours. If I want to eat it, won't I order it again? I'm short of money for this plate of asparagus?"

Hikalesh ignored him and went to press room service to order a new plate.

Zhuo Lan then ate asparagus while surfing on Starnet.

Opening the entertainment page, the expected hot topic related to the blood race fell down, and the shocking news was written on the main page.

"...Perrin is dead?!"

Zhuo Lan was startled when she saw this line of words, and even thought it was her language comprehension problem.When he clicked on the specific report and saw the obituary of Palin's agency, he really believed that Palin was really dead.

Hikalesh shot him a look. "Perrin?"

"It's the one who plays the bad piano." Zhuo Lan thought he forgot the name, reminded him, and then read the obituary at a glance, "Sudden heart attack... so to speak, he died suddenly."

Hikalesh wondered: "Now public places and many homes are equipped with AEDs. Why did he suddenly disappear? Is there no one to give first aid when he is alone?"

"He didn't stay alone, but with many people." Zhuo Lan browsed the news on the star network, "and everyone was looking at him, he seemed to explode before he died...... video."

Zhuo Lan projected the video in the air for Hikalesh to watch together.

I saw that it was a stage with a dark background, only a beam of light shrouded Palin and the black grand piano.The part playing the piano in the front was basically cut off. At the beginning of the video, Palin took his hands off the keys, then got up and walked to the front of the stage.

Amidst the applause, Perrin smiled, then bowed.After staying there for a few seconds, he straightened up again.

Everything in the video is normal until here, except that Zhuo Lan noticed that Palin's expression seemed to be weaker.

The next moment, accidents began to happen.

Perrin straightened up and smiled weakly, but there seemed to be light in his eyes: "I want to say a few words."

The audience probably thought that he was going to express his feelings, so they calmed down.

As a result, Palin's first sentence was: "Duke Z, Crown Prince Y of Planet X, is a scumbag!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone was dumbfounded.The person Palin mentioned has a good reputation in the entire interstellar world. It is said that he is a good man who loves his wife and children, and he is also the number one among the crown princes of the Y royal family.The future king was suddenly said by Palin?

Palin didn't wait for their reaction—or maybe he was afraid that the live broadcast would be cut off—immediately said quickly: "This Duke Z, likes to coax young boys from various nobles and famous families, preferably underage, The kind who doesn't know much about the world. He casually made promises to these boys, and coaxed these children to cooperate with his perverted games, causing great harm to their bodies and minds, causing them to be depressed, psychologically twisted, and even commit suicide. Some boys have a deep affection for him, He endured it all, but after he got tired of it, he tried every means to abandon him.

"And I used to be one of these boys. It's just that he abandoned me not because he was tired, but because my family was in trouble..."

The video lasted 15 minutes. After Palin made a quick accusation earlier, he later spoke out everything that happened to him.Everyone was shocked and couldn't believe it.The Duke Z in Palin's mouth is quite different from the public's impression. It is completely two separate images.If what Palin said is true, not to mention that Duke Z is finished, everything related to the Y royal family may start to disappear from now on.

Palin seemed to have expected that some people would think he was telling a ridiculous big lie, and he also read a bunch of unit names and personal star network IDs, indicating that all the evidence he collected had been sent to these people.He seemed to have no expectations for the law enforcement agencies of country X, so the targets of the materials were all kinds of media and influential people on the star network.

Units and people whose names have been named will always be pressured by the voices of public opinion to stand up and speak out.

And even putting aside public opinion, this is traffic visible to the naked eye, and there are many people who want to take advantage of the trend.It can be said that there are quick hands and slow hands.

But these data are all for later.

The video continues, playing to the end, and Palin's story is finally finished.

It's also possible that he didn't finish, but he couldn't hold it anymore.He smiled weakly, with a sense of relief in his expression, and said the last word.

"By the way, those who have listened to my live broadcast today, especially the audience... you should listen to Dragos' "Divine Comedy" a few more times."

He left this inexplicable sentence, and suddenly fell down.

The audience at the scene probably thought it was part of the performance, and it took a while before buzzing started to appear.Then I saw the staff rushing into the camera, looking panicked, and some people shouted: "First aid! First aid!" "Call the ambulance!" "Where is the AED!!!" "Is there a doctor!"

The video ends here.

According to the description in the obituary, Palin should have died on the spot here.Because the obituary said that the first aid was sent to the hospital, and after all-out rescue, he died.Zhuo Lan reckoned, let alone the first aid, even if the staff rushed to the stage, Palin would have been gone.

Zhuo Lan turned off the video, and Hikalesh asked, "This...shouldn't be a real heart attack, right?"

"Huh?" Zhuo Lan asked knowingly, "What did you see?"

"I just have a feeling that he is using up his last bit of life, like the last minute of a candle burning." Hikalesh said, "When he was talking at the end, he was obviously at the end of his strength. Falling down At that time, it was not so much a sudden cardiac arrest as a complete loss of vitality. So I think that it was not a heart attack that caused his life to disappear, but that his body was unable to work due to the exhaustion of vitality."

"Tut tsk tsk..." Zhuo Lan sighed, "It's really you."

Hikalesh asked, "So, I guessed right?"

"Basically it's like this." Zhuo Lan said, "Didn't we already talk about it before, didn't he talk about the 'Devil's Language'? This is not an energy that an ordinary human can bear frequently. The piece became an instant hit, and if I have been invited to play this piano piece...it would not be surprising that it dried up and died so quickly."

Hikalesh said: "So, he knew he was going to die, so he said these words in public?"

"I have a different view on this issue." Zhuo Lan said, "I would rather believe that he spared no effort to make himself known by the public in order to let the past experience come to light and make that Duke Z receive the punishment he deserved. Pay attention—even at the cost of your life."

"What he and others have encountered is really disgusting." Hikalesh said, "But it is unavoidable to be rash to give up your life because of this."

"Your master's thoughts..." Zhuo Lan propped his chin, "It's bright like a firework for a moment, and then disappears in ashes, isn't it good?"

Hikalesh stared at him: "You think so?"

"I think so, but I didn't choose to do it." Zhuo Lan smiled, "Otherwise, how could you see me who has lived for thousands of years, isn't it?"

Hikalesh stared at him for a few seconds: "...It's best to be like this."

The two chatted one after another, and when Hikalesh pulled Zhuo Lan's leftover asparagus back to him, and was about to finish eating, Jiang Yihong suddenly knocked on the door.

He didn't seem to be fully awake yet, so he came to Zhuo Lan after casually changing out of clothes and without tidying up his hair.Seeing his appearance, Zhuo Lan raised his eyebrows and said, "Even if Palin is dead, do you need to be so anxious?"

Jiang Yihong was taken aback for a moment: "Palin is dead?!"

"It's not about this?" Zhuo Lan said, "Let's talk about you first, why do you want me?"

"Oh, just now Duke Sudial came to me suddenly." Jiang Yihong paused, as if he himself felt that what he said next was a bit ridiculous.

"It is said that Sutiar is seriously ill, and I am looking for you—to save him."
