Chapter two hundred and eighty second ugly doll
"I, I want to plead for you, if something happens to me... please help me and give me a message to my neighbor's daughter."
As he said, his cheeks were dyed with a rosy touch.
"—I have always loved her."
The volume was not loud, and there was no relief to finally muster up the courage.
On the contrary, there is a vague regret.
All the reverie and nostalgia are all immersed in these few short words.
That admiration seemed to be about to overflow.
Almost the moment Wien heard it, his facial features wrinkled into a ball.
Damn, why do you have to stuff me with dog food at this time? Brother, do you know if you were to be beaten if you were in modern times?
Oh yes, I'm no longer a single dog.
When he thought of this, he calmed down for a moment.
"Okay." He said.
Some things can be said but cannot be done; some things can be done but cannot be said.
What Wien didn't say was that according to his real plan, Horace should have the opportunity to express his love to the beloved girl in person.
On the side, Chris and Tasia were already moved by Horace's true feelings.
"We will definitely bring this sentence!" Chris promised very solemnly.
Horace smiled faintly, "That's good."
...
The other end of the city lord's mansion.
On an open space, a large pile of pink dolls were stacked in a twist.
At this moment, Count Alic's face was as gloomy as the sky was covered with dark clouds.
The dolls who were once regarded as treasures by him one night have now become ragged and incomplete.
They leaned against each other with few arms and legs, as if they formed a small hill.
"Burn." He spit out two words coldly.
The maids accompanying him did not dare to ask any questions about him suddenly cutting all the dolls, just as they dared not discuss the strange habit of collecting cute dolls in private.
The two maids stepped forward and evenly spread the oil on the dolls.
Then, throw the lit torches between them.
Only a muffled sound of "puff" was heard, and flames surged like waves, swallowing all these dolls.
The undecisive flames were reflected in the eyes of Count Alek.
He felt that the anger in his heart was dancing wildly with the flames in front of him.
【Like dolls.】
【Like cute things.】
Is this a wrong thing?
He doesn't think so.
But if you don't have enough ability, you can't have them.
Bathed in the flames, he seemed to have returned to that dark rainy day.
He was born into a down-and-out family with a noble style, and had nothing but the title he could inherit.
What I hear and see in my eyes are all kinds of ridiculous actions my parents have made to maintain the style of aristocratic interactions.
Even though he was so scarce that he could no longer afford this glory, he still had to weave the curtains to hide this embarrassment.
Sadly, the identity of the Earl's son made him unable to appeal to others to others.
"Alik! How can the Earl's Son play with the mud on the ground like those civilians!" The mother felt like she was hit hard.
"Alik! You should interact more with children from other noble families and pay more attention to some major issues that the kings are hotly discussed!" The father was furious.
They hope that they can change the embarrassing situation of their family background and revitalize their family.
I did it myself.
As the lord of a city, I am now in power.
In this city, you can do whatever you want.
So, he finally had the ability to achieve his wish.
The cute dolls you once longed for can also collect as much as you want, and no one dares to say more about it.
He piled up the dolls in his study and let them witness his great achievements together.
But still can't satisfy it.
——This is not enough.
He thought.
Day after day, I received more and more bribes, and the basement was filled with rare treasures from all over the world.
But this is still not enough.
The money came too slowly, so he began to find another way and plundered it in all kinds of ways.
The money he plundered was getting more and more. Before going to bed every day, he had to toss and turns his treasures many times, just like sleeping on a mountain of gold and silver.
Although I am happy, this is still not enough.
He cleaned up the thing he once loved from the house that had been idle.
Among them, there is a small doll covered in dust.
Its face is made up of many different colors of rags, which is ugly.
But it was secretly sewn by him one by one.
At that time, every minute and every second, all his interests and hobbies were strictly controlled, and he could only do things that were "favorable to expand connections among the nobles."
He could only use some rags he could get at hand to secretly make it bit by bit according to his imagination of a cute doll.
When he met it again, Alix was extremely happy.
It was like meeting an old friend who had been away for a long time. At this moment, he regained the indescribable sense of excitement and satisfaction that he used to be.
He cleaned it by himself and made a topper and bow tie for it.
The doll, who became much handsome in costume, was still ugly, but in Alik's eyes, it was the cutest of all his collections.
He put it in the display cabinet with great value, wanting it to accompany him with other cookie dolls.
But……
The madman who came from some unknown place dared to manipulate its body and let it betray itself!
Until now, he has not been able to find the whereabouts of the doll again!
When Alik thought of what happened that night, he felt that his reason was about to be overwhelmed by anger.
The anger made him unable to bear the encirclement of these cute dolls.
He felt that they were laughing at themselves loudly: Look, this person could not even protect his favorite things.
——This person is really ridiculous.
Looking at the ashes left after the flames burned, Alek clenched his fists.
These dolls are testimony!
He would catch the assassin who was ignorant of the world and impose the same punishment on him to pay homage to his lost dolls.
The Count thought silently.
"Master Lord...Master Lord..." The butler walked over with anxiety.
The butler opened his mouth and tried to say something, but closed his mouth again and glanced at the maids around him.
Alic waved his hand, "Go down."
The maids retreated.
"How was it?" he asked calmly.
