Half of the throne is for you [future]

His Highness Aoyin... unexpectedly noticed this!

That's right, I was absolutely alert on weekdays and repeatedly distracted and absent-minded. Coupled with the reappearance of the old Ningtos as an opportunity, it is easy to conclude that I have already remembered part of the memory.

"Your Highness..." Hong Lie quickly walked a few steps and stood three meters away from Ao Yin. Instead of bowing her head respectfully as usual, she looked at her with unabashed eyes.

Ao Yin carelessly staggered her blood-colored pupils, folded her arms and looked into the dark depths of the ice sculpture garden: "Answer me a question first, what do you think of?"

Should I answer it?

Hong Lie's right hand rested subconsciously on the particle sword, clenched the weapon tightly to seek comfort, and his face became even paler when he was troubled: "I... remember somewhere, you once ordered me to keep the spores to replace them in advance."

The body turned into ashes, the blurry scene in front of my eyes, the fading consciousness...all of these are extremely shocking after thinking about them, and there is also the unbearable throbbing pain when the crystal nucleus is stripped from the body!

Ao Yin blew a whimpering cold wind by her ears, she let out a cool low smile, and turned her eyes back again: "I only thought of this, and that's why I'm extra vigilant towards me? It really can't be explained..."

Hong Lie followed her gaze and landed on the particle sword in her right hand - she was still holding it!

"Your Highness is not like this!" The captain of the personal guard withdrew his palm like lightning, backing away as if proving his innocence, "You misunderstood, this subordinate has no intention of attacking!"

The wind and snow became more and more violent, and the starlight gradually dimmed. Ao Yin watched her almost retreat into the darkness, but said nothing.

The things you least want to be known, the side you least want to be seen are all exposed. Today is really unlucky.

Hong Lie retreated to a dangerous distance, his black armor almost blended into the night, looked at the Duke surrounded by exquisite ice sculptures and said solemnly: "Before you left Alor, you were attacked and injured, but you didn't blame your subordinates for their lack of protection. It is because of this that the subordinates will find it strange to hide all the news. But I trust you, Your Highness. After the change, the subordinates are still driven by instinct to follow you, so... please don't hide it anymore! No matter what happens Everything can be explained!"

Can it really be explained?

Ao Yin stretched out her hand from under the cloak, and rubbed her forehead wearily: "Some things can only be kept in my heart, because you will definitely die if you know."

"From the moment I took over the duties of the captain of the personal guard, my subordinates are ready to accept all the consequences." Hong Lie's attitude was very firm, and she slowly walked out of the darkness and approached her, trying to express the most harmless attitude, still Stopped at a distance of three meters, disarmed all the weapons on his body and threw them into the distance.

Ao Yin silently looked at the unarmed guards, shook her head and sighed: "How can you protect me like this..."

Probably because of Honglie's trusting eyes, she couldn't refuse. Aoyin looked sideways at the shallow footprints left by Li Zhuonan when he fled the scene in a hurry, and suddenly made up his mind: "Since you said you can explain it, then try it. Your question There will be results, but there is still work to be done before then, bring her here."

No, one of the Seven Dukes of Star Neville has always had a bad reputation among the Night Clan, and has a bad character that ignores the rules of the law.

Even if Li Zhuonan saw her, he would still be afraid, so he wanted to arrest her!Even if she doesn't want to listen, you have to put what you want to say into her heart!

Ao Yin, who was determined, felt that her hesitation just now was extremely ridiculous.

I'm afraid it's because I lost it once, so I'm more cautious, right?But humans are much stronger than she thought, so it must be fine!

"Yes." Hong Lie answered concisely with his head down, leaned over and put all the weapons back in place, all chaotic thoughts were driven out of his brain.

"Wait a minute." Ao Yin suddenly interrupted when she turned around, and observed for a while that Hong Lie was almost arresting him, "Go and dispose of Ningtos' body, burn it and throw it into space. Not an ounce of ash is allowed to float on this planet."

Seeing her nodding, Ao Yin left along another path in the ice sculpture garden: "Also, let...Garcia take her to the forbidden room in four hours."

……

Li Zhuonan rushed back to the room in a panic, pulled the quilt over his head and gasped for breath, the heart that was forcibly pulled out of his body still remained in his frightened pupils.

There are also tiny red flowers blooming on the ground from splashing blood...

Her hands and feet, which had been numb from the cold, were slowly recovering, and her skin felt slightly itchy, which made her very uncomfortable.

Li Zhuonan slowly closed his eyes in extreme discomfort, his tense nerves gradually relaxed, he didn't know how long he had slept, when suddenly there was a knock on the door.

Garcia's usual energetic voice sounded, and she was even happier because she just got out of the wheelchair and walked freely: "Get up, get up, Lord Aoyin wants to see you, don't make her wait too long!"

Li Zhuonan was immediately frightened away by that name and all his drowsiness fell away.

She got up and washed, changed the clothes she left the room last night, she was still absent-minded when she opened the door, but Garcia shouldn't be much better.

"What's the matter?" Li Zhuonan noticed that her expression was wrong, and looked down at the ordinary water-colored knitted sweater on his body. The temperature control system in the castle is quite perfect, and there is no need to wear too thick outside tens of degrees below zero.

Garcia stood at the door and shook her head vigorously, with her high brown ponytail dangling behind her back, her voice tried to be brisk as usual, but the expression on her face couldn't be concealed: "Actually...the Lord wants you to go to the forbidden room."

Li Zhuonan was not surprised when he heard the unfamiliar term, his knee-length boots were not high-heeled, and when he walked through the long corridor of the castle, there was no sound: "Oh..."

I thought Garcia's strange behavior this morning was because she noticed what Ao Yin was doing.She should know nothing, right?Hong Lie didn't seem like someone who would speak out.

Garcia walked diagonally ahead and suddenly stood still!He turned around abruptly and put it on her shoulder: "That's a forbidden room, a forbidden room!"

"What?" Li Zhuonan finally focused on the present, and his eyes that had lost their vitality regained their vitality little by little, and finally sobered up.

I don't want to see Ao Yin, to be precise, I don't know which Ao Yin I saw.Other than that, she didn't think about the place or the way of meeting.

Forbidden room?It sounds like a scary place...it can't be the torture chamber!

Garcia withdrew her movements, and her protruding knuckles rested on her chin: "Don't show a scared expression, I won't scare you anymore, the so-called forbidden room... is just a little more mysterious, because I have been following you for so long and I don't know what's inside. No one has entered that room since the castle was repaired, and my lord will not enter it himself, but anyone who snoops will definitely be expelled from the galaxy!"

"Oh..." Li Zhuonan agreed indiscriminately, his hesitant heart suddenly became firm, and he ran up the spiral staircase, "Then hurry up, is this direction?"

Anyway, no matter how you dodge, what should come will always come, and bad things will never happen if she is not hesitating in place.

The castle on Alor is simpler in structure than the Duke's Mansion. The wooden stairs, together with the up and down, are gorgeously decorated under warm yellow lights with a sense of retro.

The room called "Forbidden Room" is located at the top of the castle, and the metal door that needs to be opened by the iris firmly isolates the inside and outside, but the familiar location makes Li Zhuonan feel that maybe it is Ao Yin's secret bedroom.

Garcia stood on the stairs and didn't follow, she waved her hand: "Your Excellency is waiting inside, it's inconvenient for me to go there, you..."

I wanted to remind Li Zhuonan to pay attention, but when he received the order, the Duke did not show any abnormality, his expression was similar to his usual expression.

Li Zhuonan nodded and walked up, stood in front of the closed metal door and turned around to look, only the top of Garcia's head could be seen under the stairs.

After scanning the metal door to confirm the identity of the visitor, it opened silently. Li Zhuonan tentatively took a step inside. When the door closed, he immediately felt a sense of boundless emptiness.

It was pitch black with no direction.

This time she is no longer flustered, because Ao Yin said that the environment simulation device embedded in the wall can debug various realistic environments, and it will look like this after removing all the effects.

Human beings do not have spatial positioning organs, so they will be in a daze of losing their sense of direction.

"You're very calm." Ao Yin's voice that couldn't hear her emotions came from above, not far in front.

Li Zhuonan heaved a sigh of relief, and at the same time was glad that he didn't have to see her directly.

Is Ao Yin still that crazy and timid look?Or the perfect smile as always?

No matter what kind of feeling makes her feel strange, it is better not to see each other.

"I'm sorry, I saw you in the ice sculpture garden yesterday..." Li Zhuonan looked directly at the darkness in front of him and apologized softly, but his body was tense and refused to relax.

When Ao Yin heard her take the initiative to bring up what happened last night, she was a little abnormally calm: "Actually, I am very angry because you insisted on digging out the side of me that I planned to hide. But it is useless to hide now, so I decided to say come out."

Li Zhuonan couldn't see anything, only felt that a hand was placed on his face in the darkness, and his fingertips traced slowly along the hairline.

Maybe Ao Yin can see her...

"This matter is about the dead man, and it is also related to the Seventh Duke of the Night Clan... No, it was still the Eighth Duke at that time." Ao Yin's movements seemed to confirm her thoughts, and she accurately explored the human facial features.

I want to confirm whether it is an expression mixed with strangeness and fear.

The information that Li Zhuonan had seen flashed across his mind like lightning, and he pressed the back of Ao Yin's cool hand: "Ningtos, that man killed the eighth duke?!"

Ao Yin stopped all her movements and sighed heavily: "Hahaha... Do you think so? I told you a long time ago that Xue Yousha was eaten by me. The only thing I feel lucky now is, Maybe it's because I didn't lie to you."
