The Cultivation Of The Maid

Chapter 11: Phantom Hein's Maid 9

Views:

With the help of the magic dog, the work of finding people is surprisingly simple.

Even in the dark environment, after they entered the city of London, they found the destination with obvious clues in a remote place - it was a small shop selling all kinds of toys, and the transparent glass window was the most conspicuous There is a doll that is very similar to Elizabeth's image, even the clothes she is wearing today are imitated.

When they entered, the back door of the shop was still open. When they went out, they saw a huge old castle behind them, and they could tell at a glance which nobleman's mansion it was.

"Liz must be over there!" Charles waved his hand, "Melu, Pluto, let's go!"

For the sake of Elizabeth, Shire had long been prepared to break into even the dragon's lake and tiger's den. The mansion not far away gave him a very bad feeling.

In fact, after they opened the door and broke in, they were indeed right. In the empty hall, there was only a girl doll standing on a circular platform looking at them expressionlessly under the reflection of two candles.

"This is the victim in the disappearance case?" Charles read the information and recognized it at a glance. The dim light prompted him to move closer to the victim to get a better look, but someone grabbed his hand.

"Master, please don't get too close." The maid reminded at this time, "Although it is an inferior product, it can still attack people."

As if confirming Mei Lu's words, the puppet who had been motionless before suddenly turned its eyes and cast its gaze on them, then walked off the high platform and walked straight towards them.

Under the dim candlelight, the expressionless face of the puppet suddenly turned dark several times, and her gaze was firmly locked on Charles, which made the boy feel a little bit of pressure. Then he heard a cool and sweet female voice beside him.

"Pluto, tear her apart."

The magic dog, which had been pretending to be a human being in order to conceal its huge size before, suddenly swelled up and turned into a huge dog, and rushed on it viciously.

Then in less than a minute...

"Master, let's move on." The maid took the master's hand, bypassed the mess on the ground, and walked towards the hall door that the giant dog broke through first, "This place is more dangerous, please don't leave my side."

wood, and clay…

When leaving the hall, Charles looked back at the material parts that had been torn apart, and felt a little weird.

It's really a doll...

Passing through the initial hall, there are countless upward steps. The magic dog's speed is too fast, and the two of them have long been left behind, only the sound of paws landing from above can be heard from time to time.

And... the singing of the nursery rhyme "London Bridge is Falling Down" with its lyrics changed.

"Make it out of steel and iron~ make it~ make it~ make it out of steel and iron~ my fair lady~"

Every time these songs sounded, girl dolls with harder materials appeared to block them, but none of them were the opponent of the magic dog. They were either torn apart by its sharp claws, or burned into iron lumps directly under its flame.

With such a sharp weapon in front of him, the whole process was unimpeded. Now Charles really thinks that Melu's previous decision could not be more wise.

"It can't go on like this." The two followed the magic dog to the top floor, but found nothing except the pile of discarded dolls. The maid searched to no avail and concluded, "It seems that Miss Liz has been transferred. gone."

"What!" Charles was about to worry, when suddenly his waist tightened. He was picked up by the maid and placed on the back of the magic dog. Then the maid also sat up and wrapped him around him to prevent him from falling.

"Don't worry, master, with Pluto here, we will find Miss Liz." The maid protecting the master smiled at him, then looked up at the large French windows in front, "Please sit still, we will Go to the final goal."

When Charles just realized something, the magic dog under his seat had already jumped up and flew the two of them out of the tall building. When the flying scenery finally stopped, they had already come to a lonely tower.

"This is...?" Charles looked up at the solitary tower, frowning, "Is Liz in there?"

"Yes, this is a sealed tower, and its interior is connected to another world." The maid explained, "But we have Pluto, as a hell dog, it has the ability to open the seal."

With a long howl of a dog, the door that had been closed tightly opened automatically after a burst of splendor. Pluto rushed in first, without waiting for them.

"Pluto...!" Charles couldn't help stretching out his hand to hold it, but the maid next to him was not in a hurry.

"It's okay, it will lead the way for us." Taking the young man's hand again, Merlu smiled at the master, "Let's go, young master, let's meet Miss Liz."

It was another long flight of steps, but this time there was no weird nursery rhyme. Charles was originally a little anxious about Elizabeth, but he felt surprisingly calm and calm when he stood side by side with the maid.

Nothing happened to Liz, he was sure in his heart, not because of anything else, just because of the calm posture of the maid.

Sebastian did the same thing, and he was very calm in everything, but now Charles is very clear that the calmness of the deacon is different from the calmness of the maid, just like the incident of the red lady last time, replaced by Sebastian Deal with it, Madam Hong will die when she dies, but Mei Lu will intervene in advance, this is the biggest difference between them.

The same thing happened with Liz.

They found Elizabeth in a coma in a puppet workshop. Her face had been waxed. When Charles was feeling nervous, he was successfully calmed down by the maid saying "Miss Liz is fine."

Just as he was about to take people away, the weird nursery rhyme sounded again.

"You can't leave, Charles Phantomhine belongs to my master." The manipulator behind the scenes finally appeared, a delicate young man with a tall jacket and short orange hair, and he appeared together with him Bring a large number of iron doll legions.

"So many..." Charles found it difficult to protect the unconscious Elizabeth, and while stepping back, he looked for the shadow of the magic dog, "Pluto didn't know where to go at this time."

At this moment, a slender figure stood in front of them. The blond maid turned her back to him and faced the puppets pouring in at the door, so Charles couldn't see her face, but heard clearly The girl spoke indifferently in a condescending tone she had never used before.

"Really, wave after wave." She said and took a step forward, "A group of inferior products, how long are you going to show off?"

The girl's voice was very soft when she spoke, and her walking posture was like that of a noble lady strolling in a garden, but when she took the first step, Charles saw that all the puppets who were attacking before stopped.

In the second step, the puppets lowered their arms, and the whole body standing behind the puppets trembled slightly, as if they were struggling.

In the third step, all the puppets lowered their heads and knelt down on the ground. The only young man who was standing also lowered his head, but his whole body was shaking.

"Admirable loyalty." The girl looked at him and smiled, "But it's useless."

As soon as she finished speaking, Charles heard the sound of something broken coming from the young man's body. Finally, the only resister also knelt on the ground, motionless.

"Master, you are safe now." The maid turned around and reported to the master. Behind her, there was a puppet kneeling on the floor.

Charles watched all this silently while holding Elizabeth in his arms, only his blue pupils kept flickering, proving that his heart was not at peace.

Suddenly, a black figure fell from a height and landed directly between them.

"Sebastian, your investigation is over?" With the contract in place, Charles was not surprised by the presence of the visitor.

"Yes, the results of the investigation show that this house is very suspicious." The deacon in black glanced around, and finally his eyes fell on the unconscious girl in his arms, "I didn't expect Miss Elizabeth to be here."

As if she was finally awakened by the movement around her, Elizabeth, who had been in a coma, desperately opened her eyes. The first sight she saw of Charles' face made her very happy: "Charles... I want to hold a birthday party for you."

This made Charles, who was still happy, shake his heart, and finally he nodded: "Well, celebrate for me."

This made the little girl who had been hitting a wall before suddenly happy, as if letting go of her burden, she fainted again.

"Sebastian, check this place thoroughly, and then we'll go back immediately!"

Mr. Deacon found the magic dog Pluto in the last room of the tower. It was lying in front of a figure sitting with its back to the door, and even licked the back of the other's hand on the armrest affectionately. It was only when he went to investigate that he found that the person sitting on it was just a crude puppet, and the real boss behind the scenes hadn't even shown his face.

"Are you running away?" Charles gritted his teeth secretly.

"It seems so." The black-clothed deacon echoed, and turned his head to the maid, "It may not necessarily be that she was scared away by Ms. Meilu's heroic appearance."

The blond maid didn't speak, but smiled back, but Charles' brows were unconsciously frowned.

The girl's serial disappearance has never happened again since tonight, but this is a later story. The next day, the birthday party at Haydom Hein Manor is already full of preparations.

The party was not grand, and only family and friends were invited to celebrate. However, under the command of the head maid, the manor was tidied up and decorated inside and out, according to Miss Elizabeth's requirements, it was gorgeous and warm.

"Charles!" "Master!" "Count!"

"Happy birthday!!!"

In the banquet hall, people cheered to today's birthday star.

"Ah, thank you everyone." The always awkward young master responded with a face today.

With the sound of melodious music, the dance party also started.

Some people slid onto the dance floor, and some people watched the new things. Phantom Hein's family did not invite a band today, and Mr. Deacon did not play the violin at the moment, but was helping on the scene. Some guests and servants were curiously gathered around the corner of the banquet, staring at the large machine that was playing a symphony.

"Is this the Orchis Liteon? A mechanical instrument that is worth as much as an orchestra? It's amazing!"

"Isn't it Master Meilu who is amazing? A few days ago, I thought she picked up a large piece of junk and said it was a gift for the young master. I didn't expect it to be such an artifact after repairing it!"

"It's the first time I've seen a musical instrument that I can play by myself."

"Miss Meilu really knows everything, she is an incredible person."

While spinning around his fiancée on the dance floor, when he passed by the musical instrument, Charles heard their discussion, and for some reason his mind sank.

"What's the matter? Charles." Elizabeth couldn't help asking when she saw that his expression was wrong.

"It's nothing." The boy shook his head, threw away all his previous thoughts, and concentrated on dancing with Elizabeth.

The party went on late into the night, and those people left in the carriage with unfinished business, and Shire, the host, was exhausted.

He took a shower under the service of the maid, changed into clean pajamas, and then lay down in the soft bedding.

"Melu." He stopped the maid, "Thank you for today. That gift is very good."

"It's really great that the young master likes it." The maid responded in this way.

Charles looked at the girl's happy face, she seemed to be like this all the time, a word of affirmation from the master always made her happy for a long time, and she was always so sincere when facing him, so sincere that he had the illusion that he had everything about her.

But is that really the case

"Fini and the others work for me, and what they want is a shelter that can give them peace of mind; Sebastian stays by my side, because he wants my soul." The little boy lay on the bed and looked at the couch. While respecting the standing maid, "What about you, what do you want?"

"I don't want anything." The maid shook her head, "I just want you to be well and live happily every day."

"Make a price." Charles didn't believe it at all, or he didn't feel safe at all, "What do you need to stay here forever?"
