Chapter 722: Normal
"Sir, you actually don't have to feel sad for us. All of this is our own choice."
Grace's tone was very gentle, and her figure hugged Helen's figure again. Behind the thin three layers of gauze curtains, surrounded by red butterflies, the two were unusually intimate.
"We originally thought that the following story would continue like this until one of us got tired, or walked towards the final end with all things. But I didn't expect that you would appear."
Xia De was shocked in his heart:
"Speaking of which, I am very curious, how did you find the Hamilton Detective Agency located in Tobesk? That commission was clearly not for Detective Sparrow Hamilton, but for me, but at that time I... was not the me of today."
"It wasn't us who found it; it was Miss Mana Feilian'anna who told us."
Helen answered, her tone very relaxed, her hand touching her sister's earlobe:
"That was many years after we parted with you at that banquet, and also many years after the Great War of Sikar Mountain. Having become like this, we found the already established St. Byrons Comprehensive Academy and met Miss Feilian'anna who had helped us before again."
Miss Oulannuode also said that the twins had indeed met Miss Feilian'anna and became true witches with her help, and that was before the Great War of Sikar Mountain.
"She was not satisfied with our choice, and was powerless about our situation. We wanted to know about you, but Miss Feilian'anna refused to say, and even let the librarian lock us in the library, forbidding us from wandering around in the academy... The initial containment record about us actually came from this."
The truth of history is often more shocking than the story.
"Later, unable to withstand our pleading, Miss Feilian'anna said three words: 'Tobesk,' 'St. Deran Square,' 'Hamilton.'"
Grace's tone carried a smile:
"She really didn't deceive us. When Delarion was established and Tobesk became Tobesk, we were really happy. When the low buildings at the location of St. Deran Square were destroyed and the square appeared, we were really happy. When that spy from the Southern Kingdom, Sparrow Hamilton, appeared at St. Deran Square No. 6 with his secrets, we knew you were coming."
It seems that the identity of Detective Sparrow was not a secret to everyone. In order to figure out the relationship between Detective Sparrow and Xia De, the twins probably investigated all his pasts. Perhaps the identity of a top spy of the Kaisenlik United Kingdom had unimaginable secrets to ordinary people, but to the twins, that didn't count as a secret at all.
"I originally thought that the detective would get married and have children at St. Deran Square, and only then would you appear. But I didn't expect that only a spring had passed, and you appeared... Although you looked blind and foolish, as if you were an empty shell without a soul, it must have been you."
Helen said very affirmatively:
"So, when that detective was entangled by a curse, I went to the door to commission him. And you, sure enough, found us because of this. Everything was destined. Sir, seeing you again across the long time, it's really good."
Xia De didn't ask Helen why she didn't remove the curse for Detective Sparrow. This question had no meaning. He just wanted to know:
"In other words, you also don't know where that blind and foolish me came from."
"Yes."
It was still Helen who answered, because that was what happened when she walked alone in the material world:
"We are the Red Butterfly Twins who bring disaster. Even if I wait alone, I cannot stay in one place for a long time, which will bring disaster to the people around me, not to mention that it is Tobesk. In the winter of 1852 of the Sixth Era, I spent it in Midhillburg. When I returned to Tobesk, you had already appeared."
The date matched. Detective Sparrow found the vagrant in the spring.
"I investigated your origin, born in Green Shade Town, Carlton County, Southern Delarion, fled to Tobesk because of the Great Famine, and wandered for several years. Plain and unremarkable, nothing special."
These intelligence reports were completely consistent with St. Byrons' investigation of the correspondence Ringed Shushi Xia De Hamilton. It seems that the original owner really didn't have any stories.
A chuckle came from "She" in his ear.
"What did I look like in the spring?"
He hesitated and asked.
Helen, who was half-leaning on her sister Grace's chest, laughed. The tall girl behind the gauze curtains folded her arms back, hugged the other figure's neck, her back against the other figure's chest, and sat up little by little:
"I met you alone once. You looked very dull at that time, but also very interesting. I think you must have encountered some things later to become what you are now."
From Helen's description, she didn't find that Xia De, whose head had problems, had other secrets on him at that time.
Xia De frowned, suspecting in his heart that his doubts about the original owner's identity were simply his own paranoia.
The ten minutes were about to pass. He actually wanted to ask about methods to help Dorothy and Lei Qianya, and ask about the past events of the era change. But these could be discussed later; there would be plenty of time later.
Three red butterflies flew out from the gauze curtains and landed on Xia De's shoulder. A slight burning sensation was felt on his left shoulder. Xia De pulled open his collar and saw three red butterfly-shaped symbols added to his shoulder.
"These three red butterflies can help you find the remaining three nails that have returned from the dead. When you are in close contact with them, the red butterflies will give you hints and also give you some temporary power. We cannot go out now, otherwise the power of the Disaster Twins may immediately catalyze the collapse of the Rift, so we cannot help you for the time being. I hope the butterflies can guide the direction for you."
Grace in the gauze curtains said, and Xia De nodded:
"I actually have many more questions I want to ask. Then, when can I see you again next time?"
"In a week, sir. Please come again in a week. My sister and I don't want you to see our ugly appearance."
"That's good, see you in a week, Grace, Helen."
After saying goodbye, he prepared to leave, but when his hand grasped the door handle, a voice came from behind again:
"Sir."
It was Helen speaking:
"May I ask, why did you generously use the opportunity to make a wish to God back then to block the blood brew of the God of Vampires for us?"
The voice was very light, and some syllables were even completely suppressed by the crackling bonfire.
"Generously?"
Xia De thought of the smiling appearance of that evil god again. He didn't think it was his generosity at all. He didn't want any gift from that god in the first place:
"Helping you is because you needed help."
"Is that all? Isn't it because we look very beautiful?"
The voice was full of laughter.
"Oh, girls, the way you looked thin and small back then was not beautiful at all."
Xia De said words against his will, and the laughter of Grace and Helen came from behind again. The intertwined laughter had the effect of chaotic elements and mental power. Xia De was overtime.
He pushed the door open, saw Miss Rita Swift outside the door, and the cat with a stinky face.
He finally said one last sentence:
"Being able to see you again in this era, I am really happy."
He lifted his leg and stepped out of the room.
"Yes, sir. Being able to see you again is really good..." ===== CHAPTER 723 =====
