The next day, when the sun came in from the window, Opal woke up, and Coroline did not know where to go.
Opal walked out of the room in his underwear to look for something to eat. He glanced at his child's figure in front of the mirror. His skin was fair and weak. He couldn't help raising his arms and gestured, feeling that he was too weak now.
He stared into the eyes of the person in the mirror, narrowed his eyes slightly, stroked his forehead and looked at the tender face, as if he felt that something had invaded his mind.
[Opal.]Richter's voice sounded.
Opal: [Teacher?]
Opal went to get a bottle of fruit wine and sat on the sofa, his impression of Recht was a little vague. He lay down and closed his eyes, feeling Recht's voice.
Rector: [What has happened to your body? I feel that you are not the same as before.]Opal: [He transformed me, my memory became very fuzzy... I remember you, teacher. I remembered that I was here to be undercover, and I would not betray you.]Rickett: [What did he do to you?]
Opal struggled to recall and gave Rickett a rough description of what had happened these days. He remembered that he had come to be an undercover agent, and that Rector was also a star knight and his first teacher... But why he came to Cororin's side was already a little hazy.
Lecter: [So you are at Floodlight Source?]
[teacher. ] Opal said: [He said a lot of things, I feel very confused, how should we deal with him? When can I avenge... Raymond and my comrades? After all this is over, can I ask you one thing?]Rector: [Opal, it is too early to make a request, and I don’t want to discuss too much about replicants with you.]Opal: [! !]
Rickett seemed to have guessed what Opal was thinking. He said: "I don't want you to go the same way as Corolin. There are many things in life that must be lost. There is nothing that can accompany you all the time. Except for your beliefs, you If you can't accept the loss, you will inevitably use extreme means and desperate to achieve your desires.][For an ordinary person, this kind of madness will only torture himself, but for a star knight who has mastered great power, you will deviate from your own path and become the second Cororin. What's the difference between doing whatever you can to revive your lover and Coroline? ] Opal: [But teacher, this is my only goal. I beg you, I just want to bring Raymond back to life.]Rickett did not answer, Opal consciously stopped the topic and stopped talking.
After a long silence, Recht said: [Forgetting some of the past is a good thing for you, a lot of deep hatred, I don't want you to remember too clearly. While Coroline changed you, it also erased many of your negative emotions.] Opal did not mention the matter of replicants, and said: [I have collected some information for you, teacher, you can ask.]Rickett: [Does he have a fixed goal? Bordeaux, Livy, or Tierrat. ] Opal fell into thought, and replied: [He didn't tell me.]
Rickett said again: [What does he want to do?]
Opal replied: [We saw in the news that the Republic is going to take military action against the Meteorite Empire, and I guess he wants to sabotage the military vote.]Rickett: [Is he disguised as a congressman? Or which MPs did he control? What is his real identity? What pseudonym to use? ] OPAL: [It's... Klin Emmenor.]
There was silence for a long time, and after ten minutes, Recht said: [The Emmenor family? When did he get this status? This is trouble... It seems that the Enmenor family is the financial backing for the founding of the Meteor Empire. Turns out we all guessed wrong.]Opal: [Is this surname special?]
Lecter: [Eminor is one of the three founders of the Puens Chamber of Commerce. Plant, Enmenor, and Stegas are the original founders of the Chamber of Commerce.]Ledgerson: [How did Coroline establish a relationship with the Enmenor family?] Ledgerson's voice sounded in Opal's mind.
Rickett interrupted him: [It's too late to ask this now, we must find out his entry point immediately. And to make matters worse, we haven't been able to debunk his identity. Many members of the Republic have been bribed by the Puens Chamber of Commerce. Li Wei is jealous of evil. Once he finds out, it will inevitably lead to a major reshuffle of the entire parliament, with unimaginable consequences.]Ledgerson: [Oh, I don't like assassination, is this the only way?]
Rector: [I think so, and I can't say it. He has the identity of the Enmeno family. As long as he does not admit that he is the king of meteors, it is useless even if you tie him up and give it to Li Wei. The Punes Chamber of Commerce will soon ask the Republic to release people.]Ledgerson: [Can we frame him and give him a crime?]Rector: [This is a trick, Ledgerson. If any charges that do not belong to his identity as Emmano are placed, Li Wei will instead uphold justice for him.]Ledgerson: [What a son of a bitch. Teacher, you have played atomic pool in the Republic for so many years, have you not even flirted with a high-ranking official's lover?]Rickett: [Enough!]
Opal listened to Lecter and Ledgerson arguing and laughed instead.
Rector: [Opal, Cororin, did he talk about faith?]
Opal thought for a while and said: [Not yet.]
Ledgerson: [You can use the spies in ambush here.]
Lecter: [It's Cullens, he's not a spy, he has his own position... It's not entirely inclined to the Republic, and it doesn't contradict the middle position of the Meteor Empire. After all, Cororin hasn't violated his bottom line. But we can tell the situation calmly, ask him to assist in the operation, and ask him to hide all the inside information and clues from Li Wei...] Ledgerson: [Are you sure he won't take this matter to Li Wei or shake it upside down? If I were him, I would immediately notify the Republic Army and send all my troops to intercept Cororin on the spot on the Floodlight.]Rector: [No, no, Cullens is Opal's former comrade-in-arms. I believe he will not harm Opal. I don't want Opal's identity to be discovered by the Republic or Cororin. The plan failed, Opal is still alive, and continues to lurk by his side...] Ledgerson: [I was thinking about failure before I even started, teacher, I finally understand why you lost to Cororin.]Rickett: [It is because I have enough faith that I won't make desperate things...]The induction suddenly stopped.
Opal waited for a long time, and without waiting for Lecter to contact him again, he got up and went to have breakfast. Although there was a lot of wine in the VIP private room, what he ate was still the milky white liquid.
Not long after I ate it, Coroline came back.
"What are you doing?" Coroline asked casually.
Opal was a little nervous and said, "Just got up."
Coroline snorted: "Really? Why do I think you have been up for a long time."
Opal: "I've been... for a while."
"I'll take you to a New Year's dance tonight." Coroline took off his coat, tossed it, and hung it on the hook, saying, "You need to help me move."
Opal turned his head and asked, "Can I work?"
Cororin thought for a while, nodded, and said, "Let's go, get out of here first."
The source of floodlight during the day is another scene compared to the night. All the high-rise buildings are transformed into the color of the natural landscape. The side of the building seems to be countless TV walls that are embedded together. The blue sky and the sea are outside the building. The walls rippled one after another.
"It's like a chameleon," says Cororin. "Without nature, you can only install photosensitive colors on buildings."
The whole source of floodlight is like a huge TV. From the building to the ground, the natural scenery is broadcast, and people are still numbly moving back and forth.
Cororin still took the glass house train to stop in another area of Versailles, and Opal finally saw the garden, the villa and the small building.
"This is the wealthy area of the capital of the Republic." Cororin said: "Each house requires 11.36 billion credits. It is more expensive than many asteroids, equivalent to the value of a galaxy."
Opal has no concept at all, just nodding blindly.
Cororin took him into the garden, which was full of small domestic robots, and Opal said, "Is there no one here?"
"The owner of the house allows us to stay for a while until we leave the Floodlight," said Corinth.
Cororin opened the door with his fingerprints, and it was like returning to his own home. Opal finally felt a little more comfortable. When he saw a man in the garden next door drinking tea, he greeted him: "Good morning."
The man glanced at him, did not speak, and listened to the music to himself.
"People here don't like to say hello to each other." Coroline smiled and said, "It seems very abrupt."
Opal stared at the man, invaded his mind, and began to dig through his thinking activities. It was nothing more than that so-and-so's songs were good, and so-and-so's paintings were good, but it was not possible to get 1,200,000 credit points. buy it...
"It's boring," Opal said blankly.
Cororin nodded: [It's really boring, stop looking at him, he will call the police.] Opal entered the room angrily.
In the afternoon, Cororin used a tailoring robot to make a small dress for Opal to put on. The styles of the two were almost identical.
"Little gentleman," said Coroline. "He's very handsome."
Opal looked at himself in the mirror and asked with a smile, "Wear like this?"
"It's banquet attire," Coroline said.
They stood in front of the mirror, one big and one small, and they seemed to be a perfect match. They were all black dress suits. In the evening, Cororin opened the garage and drove out a retro platinum car. Opal was sitting in the passenger seat. Very curious.
As the sun sets, the road is very wide, with a layer of golden twilight.
Opal said, "What should we pay attention to at the banquet?"
Cororin said: "This is a banquet hosted by a dignitary of the Republic, a member of parliament named Tirrath. It is not held in the virtual world, because many important people have come from the surrounding provinces, and Bordeaux will be at this banquet. A formal position is used to connect the central parliamentarians with the surrounding parliamentarians and give them a chance to communicate.”
Opal said, "Is it about going to war?"
Cororin nodded and said, "Yes, in another cosmic month, they will vote on the 172nd proposal in the parliament, and Bordeaux is trying to get more people to agree with him."
Opal: "So we're going to sabotage this banquet? Murder?"
Coroline snorted: "Do you want to rush in and carry out the massacre?"
Opal laughed.
Cororin said solemnly: "This plan is indeed feasible, try killing a few people?"
"No no." Opal said immediately.
"Sooner or later you will face blood and bloodshed," Coroline said.
Opal sounded a little uncomfortable, and Coroline narrowed his eyes and wrapped his arms in a thoughtful look.
Opal probed Coroline's heart with the power of faith, and found that he was considering the possibility of massacre, and he was immediately stunned and opened his mouth.
Coroline closed his chin casually and said, "It's not safe. First, it may not kill Bordeaux. Second, if you are here, it will put you in danger."
Opal said: "Use another method."
Coroline: "Well, use the safest plan."
What is the safest plan? As soon as Opal thought about it, Cororin said: "What is the most effective way to solve a person? Killing is often not the best solution."
Opal said subconsciously: "Yes, someone will inherit his ideals and beliefs."
Coroline said: "Killing a person's body does not necessarily kill the spirit that he has inherited. Even if Bordeaux dies, Livy will inherit his will."
Opal nodded, and Coroline stepped on the front of the car and said, "I want to break them up and turn against each other, make Bordeaux and Livy part ways, make the two foreign pillars of the Republic disagree with each other, and finally go their separate ways."
Opal said: "And then what?"
Cororin said: "If there is no consensus, they will fall into the diversion caused by the differences. Then break them one by one... You just need to follow my instructions."
Opal complied, and their car stopped in front of a luxurious mansion.
There were two Republic soldiers waiting in front of the door, and Cororin took out two thin things and handed them to the guards.
Cororin held Opal's hand and entered the mansion. Opal read the guard's thinking activities and found that he was thinking: [Bordeaux is really rich, and the retro banquet invitations used cost 200 credit points each. ] Cororin: [Nowadays, people like to play retro, which makes them more tasteful.]
Opal: [You are also reading his heart.]
Cororin smiled: [Yes, I thought you were going to read the guard on the right.]Opal: [What is the guard on the right thinking?]
"Mr. Enmeno from Lena Autonomous Prefecture," said the guard, "Happy New Year, and Admiral Livy welcomes you."
Opal read the mind of the man on the right - he was thinking about the relationship between Coroline and Opal, a handsome man with a beautiful little lover.
Opal felt a little throbbing in his heart, vaguely looking forward to it.
Coroline: [Focus on serious business.]
Opal immediately captured his attention, and they entered the garden all the way, took a small tour bus, and passed through the beautiful courtyard, which covers an area of 10,000 square meters and has many resting places.
Opal: "Where to go?"
Cororin picked up the waiter's glass of wine, put one hand in his trouser pocket, and said, "I don't know, it's the first time I've come to Bordeaux's mansion."
Opal looked into the villa and asked, "Go there and see?"
"You have the final say." Corinth snorted.
Classical music is playing in the hall, and the chandeliers reflect the bright light. There are long tables for buffets in the hall, and the tables are full of delicious food.
Opal was excited when he saw it, and Corinthian said, "Eat it."
Opal went to get the plate and chose the dishes one by one. Cororin scooped him some caviar and said, "This is from Aquamarine, and it tastes very good."
Two people, one big and one small, ate first on a plate at the edge of the banquet hall. Opal ate a milky white drink all day. After finally seeing a normal diet, they ate it freely.
Coroline looked up at the banquet hall from time to time as he put something into his mouth with a fork.
Opal swept around with the power of Coroline's belief, and Coroline said in his consciousness: [Don't use it indiscriminately, it's easy to get dizzy, and it's easy to be discovered. ] Opal: [Do you want to do it, teacher?]
Cororin: [No, these people have force field protective suits on them. Look at that metal badge. ] Opal followed Cororin's eyes and found that they were wearing shiny metal badges. Cororin took some fish, fed it to Opal, and said, "The one you are looking at is a fantasy of heaven. Director of Development."
Opal nodded and asked, "Where's that?"
Coroline: "The Senator representing the Crimson Galaxy, he has a virgin flower pinned to his collar."
The guests swayed invariably. A man in a military uniform was entering through the side door. Almost in an instant, everyone in the hall was approaching him and greeting him.
It was a morbidly white man. His military uniform was ironed and straight, showing a bit of heroism. There was a boyish look in his eyes. He nodded to the guests when he passed by, and said something in a low voice.
An out-of-town congressman accompanied a girl, apparently seeing Li Weizheng for the first time, and screamed uncontrollably.
Li Wei was at a loss for a while, and an unnatural crimson appeared on his pale face.
Opal tried to read his consciousness, and found that he couldn't figure it out. He frowned slightly and looked at Coroline.
[His belief is firm.]Coroline replied with his mind: [The more determined a person is, the less likely he is to detect his thoughts and be affected by the power of belief. Now you try to shake him for a moment, and I will take advantage of it.] Opal: [How to make him shake?]
Cororin: [Create some turmoil around him and see.]
Opal thought for a while, radiated the power of consciousness, controlled the girl, and said silently: kiss him, kiss him, what are you waiting for? Jump up and kiss him.
The girl fell into an almost crazy situation, hugged Li Wei, and kissed his handsome face fiercely.
In an instant, all the guests laughed, the congressman was so embarrassed that the girl fainted with happiness.
There was chaos in the arena, and Coroline laughed and nearly dropped the plate on the floor.
Coroline: [Your prank is so interesting, I almost forgot what to do...] Opal: [Did you read it? What did you read? let me see…]
Cororin: [I read it, I will tell you later, very useful information, come with me, come, let's go and say hello to the patron saint of the Republic.]Cololin stretched out his hand and took Opal over there. Li Wei's face was flushed. He was embarrassed to talk to the congressman. The congressman apologized repeatedly, and Li Wei waved his hand.
"Hello." Cororin said, "Admiral, happy new year."
Li Weiwei was a little dazed, and nodded politely to Corollin, who introduced himself: "Krin Enmenor."
Li Wei immediately came back to his senses, shook hands with Coroline, and said, "Emmeno... You are from the Punes Chamber of Commerce..."
Coroline smiled and said, "I haven't been to the source of floodlight for a long time."
Li Wei sighed: "It's true that I haven't heard this surname for a while, but when we meet again today, it still feels like thunder."
Coroline sighed and said, "Not as good as back then."
Livy noticed that Opal looked up at him and said, "This is..."
Cororin introduced: "It's my nephew, Evan."
Li Wei nodded, shook hands with Opal, and asked, "Where's your father?"
Corolin said: "It's a long story, my brother he..."
While talking, a second commotion broke out in the hall, and a young man with brown curly hair came.
All the guests swarmed over and left Li Wei at the table.
When Opal heard someone shouting "Mr. Bordeaux!", he looked over curiously, and Li Wei smiled helplessly.
Cororin stopped talking and looked at the other end of the banquet hall together.
Li Wei said rightly: "Excuse me, Mr. Enmenor, I think we will have more time to communicate."
Corollin said: "Of course, I will stay at Floodlight for a while..."
Before Corolin's words were finished, Li Wei had no time to talk to them anymore, and squeezed into the crowd. Bordeaux immediately signaled the guests to calm down and came over to talk to Li Wei.
Bordeaux and Livy began to deal with the guests. Opal looked up at Coroline and found that he was staring at Bordeaux intently, so he exuded the power of faith and wanted Bordeaux to raise his hand and slap Livy in the face.
[Don't be a prankster. ] Corolin intercepted Opal's power of belief: [Although Bordeaux is easy to control for a short time, as long as he does something unreasonable, Li Wei will definitely notice the abnormality and easily expose our target.]It seems that he was temporarily disturbed by opal, and Bordeaux's face became a little ugly, but it returned to its original state in an instant.
"Yes, the King of Meteor Stars is a threat to all of us." Bordeaux toasted several representatives of the Republic and said elegantly: "Even Azeroth died under his hands."
Li Wei was chatting and laughing with a lady, and Coroline whispered, "That's Mrs. Rima, and her husband is an important member of parliament representing sixteen rich stars."
"We don't have tickets in our hands, so no one cares," Opal said.
Coroline smiled and said, "People are soft-spoken."
[We can start planning.]Coroline said in Opal's mind: [Go to the table over there now.]Opal went to a table with drinks, and Cororin said again: [Stopping a drink, pretending to walk around and take a walk.]Opal looked sideways and saw that Cororin had walked away, so he took a drink and looked under the side escalator.
Cororin took a self-igniting cigar from the waiter's hand and put it in his mouth, walked to the fountain outside and sat down. The red dots of the cigar flickered in the dark, and someone beside him patted him on the shoulder and said: "Hi, man?"
Coroline frowned, turning to look at him.
It was a man with dark skin and full of military temperament. He looked at Cororin for a while, and said, "I'm the one who recognized the wrong person."
Coroline smiled politely, and the man asked again, "Have you ever been a mercenary? Or is there a brother who was a mercenary?"
Coroline thought for a moment and said, "No, no. But some people always feel like old friends from a previous life."
"Yeah." The man sat down with a smile, and introduced himself: "Hello, my name is Cullens, I just recognized you as another person."
Coroline hurriedly took off his cigar, got up and shook hands with him, and introduced himself: "Hello, my name is Klin Enmenor."
"Emmeno," said Cullens. "A family name full of honor."
Coroline laughed at himself: "How brilliant it is when it rises, how dark it is when it falls."
Cullens smiled and said: "After the full moon, the next night will always go to darkness. At the end of the darkness, there will inevitably be dawn. This is the case in life, and so is the family."
Cororin asked: "Are you a soldier of the Republic?"
Cullens said: "I have been discharged from the army, and Bordeaux invited me to come, so come and see."
"Yeah." Coroline held the cigar in his large hand and casually flicked the ashtray, his fingers slender and beautiful, and said, "If I'm not mistaken, you and Mr. Li Wei should be..."
Cullens took the initiative: "My colleague, his brother used to work under my command. Is that child your son?"
Cororin waved his hand hurriedly: "My brother's son."
A lady was sorting her handbags on the side. Hearing their reply, she smiled sideways: "Mr. Enmeno, I didn't know that this surname is still in the Puens Chamber of Commerce until today."
Cororin said: "I am there, but it does not play its due role. I am a prodigal."
The lady smiled and said, "You are too modest."
Cololin said: "To be honest, this time I returned to the source of floodlights, just to see the situation and do some small business."
Cullens and the lady nodded thoughtfully, and Corinth said, "What's your name?"
"Milian." The lady smiled sweetly. "I'm still thinking about which two are so charming and charming. It turned out to be the youngest son of the Emmanor family, and the morning star Cullens."
"You passed the prize." Coroline smiled casually, took her hand, kissed her lightly, looked into her eyes, and said, "Are you free for dinner in a few days?"
Milian blushed, did not answer, did not refuse.
Cullens said with a smile: "Miss Miriam is the cousin of the Speaker of the Council, Tyrratt."
"Ah." Coroline suddenly realized.
He sat back in his seat without mentioning the invitation, and said to Cullens: "Evan is my nephew, my brother died in a space accident more than two hundred years ago, and it took me a long time to find his The spaceship, extracted some genes from the dormant capsule, and my own, cultivated him."
Cullens and Milian nodded sympathetically, and Coroline said: "He looks like my brother when he was a child, so he claims to be my nephew to the outside world."
"Well, he's my uncle." Opal said to a civilian at the entrance of the spiral staircase on the second floor: "He gave birth to me using his and my father's genes, but their mother is not alone, I like my dad."
At the same time, he said in his consciousness: [This is too exaggerated, I'm sure I was born from a woman...] Cororin: [Forget your parents for a while, what's his reaction?]Opal: [He and I exchanged communication numbers...]
"Oh, okay." Opal exchanged communication numbers with the man and smiled, "Definitely."
The man said, "Come to me when you are free, and I will show you around."
When Opal smiled, he showed two small tiger teeth and said, "Thank you."
[What are you going to do now? where are you?] Opal asked in his consciousness.
Cororin: [I was chatting with a veteran and a female spy of the Empire to collect information. This veteran is very powerful. I know who he is. I can't read his mind, but he seems to know a lot.]Opal: [Let me try it?]
Cororin: [No, this person will be dealt with later. You walk towards the back garden and try to find a thin man with blond hair, blue eyes, and a thin man to chat with. He should now be near the Moonflower flowerbed. Bordeaux was thinking of him just now. ] Opal walked out of the corridor following Cororin's instructions. The moonflowers here are far less beautiful than those on the Muse Star. In the quiet night, the back garden was empty.
"I'm afraid it will be difficult to pass the vote this time." A man's voice said, "I'm afraid even Tyre doesn't agree with this idea. Li Wei is too crazy."
"I've never had high hopes for voting," said another, a little hoarse. "He clearly doesn't support Levi."
"To win over him and Bordeaux face to face, and secretly don't know what the hell..."
The two suddenly stopped talking, and Opal walked past them, sat on the flower bed, hugged his knees, and smiled at them.
The two men raised their glasses slightly at him, and Opal nodded in return. They returned to the hall. Opal looked up and looked around. There was a floating platform above his head, which was connected to the space on the third floor of the villa.
There, a silhouette of a person could be seen, projected on the outer wall of the villa, with long hair and long eyelashes, as if he was sitting.
Opal pretended to be bored and stood for a while, came out from the terrace, walked to the railing leading to the front yard, through the floor-to-ceiling glass window, happened to see Cororin chatting by the fountain, and reported to him what he saw. Lin replied: [Can you read his heart? ] Opal replied: [The man above is reading a book, he is a little sad, he is thinking about two poems, he thinks too fast, I can't catch the fragmentary thoughts, it should be 'Can we dig out the long-lost poems? ... ] Coroline: [Whether we can still dig out this long-buried treasure, whether its happiness is worth it, we can never learn the song of love.]Opal: [Yes, he is reading poetry?]
Coroline: [His name is Luke Typhon. It is Li Wei's spouse. The origin of this person is very complicated. I will explain it to you later. Now, wait for him to jump off the third floor.]Opal: [Good, good.]
Cororin: [Your mission is to protect him and prevent him from falling to his death. If there is no accident, he should fall on the second floor. After that, you must immediately rescue him and shout loudly. Levi will thank you for saving his lover, courting them, and getting more opportunities to talk. ] Opal: [But there must be a guard robot here, how could he fall? ] Cororin: [He has wanted to commit suicide for a long time, it should be tonight, be careful not to let his head fall to the ground, and I hope he will not fall down the floor, he will fall with a bloody head. ] Opal made a circle and returned to the second floor terrace of the backyard, lying on the railing and pretending to look down. Below is a very beautiful pool, reflecting the starry night sky, reading the heart of the man above his head and working hard to drive his beliefs. Power.
At the same time, Cororin smiled at Cullens in the garden: "It turns out that he was the one who actually held this banquet. I still don't know that Tilgat doesn't approve of rashly dispatching troops."
Cullens sighed and said: "His ancestors were the founders of the Tifeng Military Academy. Luke himself was not in good health. He stayed on the Tidestar for too long, and the cosmic rays there damaged his genes. It cannot be regenerated by surgery."
"But with proper care, it's possible to live a good life," said Coroline.
Cullens said, "You know the historian wife of Pike Antar?"
Coroline thought for a while, then shook his head with a smile.
"She divorced her husband, now named Lefina, and works as a historical consultant in the land of mercenaries," said Cullens.
Coroline said: "Coroline killed Azeroth."
Cullens said: "Well, Tifeng is Lefina's student. His hobbies are very strange. He likes to use ancient wheelchairs, does not let robots accompany him, and believes in pure love... He only served in Tifeng Military Academy for ten years. The principal of the school happened to be the ten years when Li Wei and I entered school... "
Opal reappeared, craned his neck in dissatisfaction, as if waiting for Cororin to end his chat with the stranger.
While chatting with Cullens, Coroline said in his consciousness: [Have not committed suicide yet?]Opal: [No, why are you so sure that he will commit suicide? Have you read his mind? ] Coroline: [Dream, his dream is full of despair, just need a little hint, he will feel that life is no longer fun, jump down, and it will be a hundred. ] Opal: [I don't think he will kill himself, teacher.]
Coroline: [Then wait until eleven o'clock, if it doesn't work, try to control him and let him jump off the building.]Opal: [Uh, teacher... I'll just wait.]
Coroline: [If I let you control a person to commit suicide, what would you do?]
Opal didn't answer.
