Chapter 216 He took everything for you

"Your Highness is crying?"

Looking at the tightly closed dormitory door, the two little girls, Afiya and Eleanor, looked at each other in bewilderment.

When Yvesette returned to Bartlion's mansion, it was already late at night. All the servants in the mansion were alarmed and came out to greet her.

The result was a merciless scolding.

Only Afia, who was relatively close to her, pulled Eleanor and followed her in silence, looking worried.

The unintentional exchange of glances made the two women vaguely aware that Her Royal Highness the Princess seemed to be in a very bad mood, and even the traces of redness could be vaguely seen in her eyes.

"go out."

Yviste walked into the room and said coldly, then closed the door tightly.

Not long after, the familiar sound of smashing things was heard in the room again, mixed with a little sobbing.

She really cried.

Afia looked at Eleanor sadly.

As for who could have made her master so sad, she couldn't think of any possibility other than that person.

The good news is that judging from His Highness's reaction, Lin En's life is most likely not in danger.

The bad news is that he probably did something that displeased Her Highness and hurt her.

Only Afia, who had always followed Ivester, knew very well that even though she looked majestic and domineering on the surface, there was actually a lonely little girl hidden deep in her heart who could easily be hurt by the things she cherished.

Although her way of expressing emotions is very distorted, it is also influenced by her living environment since childhood.

The fact that things have developed to this point is definitely not just the responsibility of Her Royal Highness the Princess.

The more this is the case, the more Lin En, as her subordinate, should be more considerate of her.

Noticing Afia's low mood, Eleanor touched her head.

Since they moved into Bartleyon Manor, Eleanor quickly became familiar with the group because of her brother's relationship with them.

Apart from Melanie, Afia is the one who is closest to her.

He often transforms into a cat and plays with her.

"Brother must have something important to do." Eleanor held Afia's hand and comforted her, "I believe brother will be able to make His Highness happy, and then the two of them will be back to normal."

As soon as he finished speaking, the faint sobbing in the room suddenly stopped.

"Don't mention that bastard in front of me anymore!!!" The princess's extremely cold voice came faintly, "Next time I see him, I will definitely kill him with my own hands."

Hearing this, Eleanor's face turned pale, as if she was frightened by her words.

In any case, the two had only just met for a short time.

Although she called her sister-in-law, her identity as a princess was ultimately more important. The deeply rooted idea of ​​hierarchy had influenced Eleanor for many years, so she subconsciously took this sentence seriously and looked nervous.

Only Afia looked at the door, then at her playmates, sighed softly, and subconsciously wanted to lick her paws, but then she remembered that she was still in human form.

Then he lightly flew into the air, transformed into a black cat and lay on Eleanor's shoulder.

"Don't worry, Your Highness is just talking, he won't do that at all."

The black cat licked Eleanor's hair and said lazily.

Maybe not for others.

As far as Lin En is concerned, there is probably no difference between "kill you" and "I love you" said by Her Royal Highness the Princess.

“Bang!”

The next second, accompanied by a burst of hurried footsteps, the door was suddenly opened.

I saw Yvesette in the room suddenly threw something out. Before I could see clearly, she closed the door again with a bang.

The two women were startled and immediately looked at the unknown creature that fell to the ground.

With white fur, drooping ears, and an expression of grievance mixed with a hint of vigilance, it curled up in the corner and made soft calls, as if trying to give itself courage.

It looks like a puppy that has just been born.

"Wow!"

Eleanor, who was very nervous just now, was instantly attracted by the baby's attention. She quickly stepped forward and held the puppy in her arms.

The puppy's dirty body and pitiful appearance are enough to arouse the maternal instinct in a woman.

Looking at the whimpering puppy, Afiya seemed to be thinking about something.

"I always feel like I look like someone."

Afia whispered.

"Like a brother?" Eleanor thought for a moment, then shook her head. "No, in my eyes, my brother is more like a big furry dog. He is warm to hold in my arms, and he will protect my family well when they are in danger."

"You don't understand."

Afia shook her head.

She was thinking back to the time when they first met.

Mingming was exiled to the border alone, and when facing torture, it was clear that everything was under the control of Her Royal Highness the Princess, but he still did not give up. He bared his teeth like a vigilant puppy and tried to escape, but was eventually caught by his owner and put on a collar.

Could it be that she was unable to see Lin En, so she was reminded of her past? However, based on her understanding of Her Royal Highness, she knew that she would never be someone who was overly affectionate.

If there is no special reason, it would be impossible to pick up such a little stray dog ​​from the street.

Unless its existence is related to Lynn.

As expected.

The next second, Yvesette's voice was heard again in the room.

The only difference from just now is that he seems a little lacking in confidence.

"Take this little beast over there and clean it up. It's dirty and smelly. It's disgusting."

"Also, remember not to hurt it."

Hearing this, Eleanor and Afia looked at each other, then nodded: "I understand, Your Highness."

Only after leaving the door of Yvesette's room did Eleanor gradually relax.

"By the way, give it a name."

"Hey, this seems to be a little bitch!"

"How about calling me Lynn?"

"Hehe, my brother will definitely be angry when he comes back~"

Different from the joyful atmosphere at Bart Leon Manor.

At this moment, the atmosphere in the ward of the Silent Church was solemn and cold.

Previously, in order to prevent Kusuisten from coming, Tia had fought back desperately, and then she took Lin En on a week-long escape. In the end, she even fought a fierce battle with "Hound" Frank in the black street market and was seriously injured.

After all the running around, her body was already exhausted.

Strictly speaking, it's not even much better than the previous Lin En.

The reason why he didn't fall was simply because of the obsession in his heart.

The great hero who saved Grosstin must not be allowed to shed blood and tears.

Even if we cannot restore his innocence in a short period of time, at least we must save his life.

But in the end, everything was shattered like a mirage.

The strange emotion that had originally been in my heart was completely crushed by the boy's cold and ruthless ridicule.

Even though she had taken a lot of moonlight essence and various healing potions during the time she was awake, Tia's face was still pale, her originally bright emerald green eyes had become empty, and her whole body looked withered as if all her energy had been drained away.

I thought that after knowing the truth, I would want revenge with all my heart and would be full of motivation until I killed that guy.

But in the end, Tia realized that she didn't even have the intention to retaliate.

Not only that, the biggest thought in his mind was self-destruction.

Was it because the dirty things he had done were exposed, or was it because the boy's true heart had never existed from the beginning to the end, and what he had always faced were the false lies he had constructed?

Tia didn't know.

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

Perhaps this was the first time in her short life that she had encountered such a thing.

No one could help her out of her current predicament.

"Tia, Sister Grete is asking you a question."

In a trance, I heard the concerned voice of my good friend Louise.

It's so close, yet it seems so far away.

"Oh sorry."

Tia slowly raised her head and looked at the middle-aged nun in front of her with a tired expression.

Compared to Sister Theresa who died at the hands of the limb grafter Berthulman, the Sister Grete in front of her is the abbess of the monastery of silence. She is cold and strict by nature, and is always strict in her treatment of people and things.

Both him and Louise had been scolded and punished by her since they were young, so there was more or less fear in their hearts.

In other words, except for Mother Theresa and Louise, although he had always lived a life of luxury in the Church of Silence, he had never felt the warmth between people.

"Your Highness, I will ask you one last time." Sister Grete's expression was serious and cold. She leaned down slightly and pressed her shoulders. "Have you ever been defiled by him?"

"This answer is very important, please tell the truth."

Ah, Her Majesty the Saint.

What an ironic and ridiculous name.

If I think about it carefully, it seems that this is the name that has been ringing in my ears since I was a child.

Even Sister Theresa, whom she regarded as her mother, seemed to have never called her "Tia".

Sometimes, she could even vaguely sense some strange emotions in those kind and gentle eyes.

It was as if the nuns were only looking at her body, rather than the personality and soul named "Tia" within the body.

Apart from Brother Xia and Louise, she had never heard anyone call her by her real name.

Oh, and now there’s another Lynn.

At that time, she was actually secretly happy deep down in her heart.

But in the end, I found out that the so-called "Viya" was actually a fabricated lie.

Feeling Sister Grete's unquestioning gaze and the gradually increasing strength of the hand pressing on her shoulder, that familiar feeling came back.

Is this look of being regarded as a precious vessel related to the Moonlight Scripture that will follow? Tia doesn't know.

But she answered automatically, "No, Sister Grete. He didn't do anything to me."

After all, whether it was kissing or using hands to vent for him, they were all actions based on her own will. From beginning to end, Lin En never coerced or even asked him, and she was even very considerate and considerate of her.

Here I go again, why do I always subconsciously excuse him? Besides, lying is not something I would do in the past.

I don’t know if it’s because I’ve been with that guy for too long, but I can tell lies without blushing or beating my heart.

Perhaps it was due to her own character setting, no one believed that Tia, the Saint of Silence, would lie without batting an eyelid, so after looking at her for a while, Sister Grete finally breathed a sigh of relief.

This behavior made Tia feel even more strange.

This was clearly her own body, and how it would become was just her own choice. What did it have to do with them? However, the other party did not give her a chance to think.

"This incident has a great impact. Your Highness the Saint must reflect on your actions, always bear in mind your responsibilities, and not disappoint the church's expectations."

"In addition, your body is no longer in danger and you can be discharged tonight." The wrinkles on Sister Grete's face made her look very solemn. "There are still two days before the Moonlight Sacred Ceremony. I hope you can adjust your mentality as soon as possible to welcome the arrival of the God's Descent Ceremony."

".I see."

I don’t know what kind of emotion she had in her heart, but in short, Tia answered blankly.

It wasn't until the nun left the ward that she came to her senses.

At this moment, she and Louise were the only ones left in the room.

Looking at the empty environment, Tia lowered her head slightly, not knowing what she was thinking about.

As a good friend, Louise seemed to notice that she was in a low mood at the moment, so she did not say anything and just let the silence permeate between the two of them.

I don't know how long it took before I heard Tia's voice faintly.

"How is he doing later?"

He? Louise subconsciously thought that Tia was talking about Xia, after all, she knew the situation between the two very well.

But then he reacted and his expression became much more complicated.

"Speaking of which, a major event related to this happened in Glostin recently." Louise took a deep breath, "Those official extraordinary people who survived the demon's advent were originally arranged to be treated in a private hospital under the Green Chamber of Commerce, waiting to wake up one day and fill in the truth of what happened that night."

"After all, the old guys in the Imperial Parliament have been on guard against us. Because of your previous incident, they did not accept the records provided by the church."

"As a result, the hospital suffered a fire the night before yesterday, and all those who knew about the incident were buried in the flames."

"Tell me, is this a coincidence, or is someone behind this?"

Tia was a little stunned, then shook her head gently: "Perhaps, someone wants to frame him, but Louise, this is not the information I want to know."

"Please don't hide anything and tell me everything that happened after that."

Hearing this, Louise's eyes wandered a little.

As a survivor, she certainly knew the truth of that night, and she was also very clear that Lin En was actually the hero who saved Grostin, but was kidnapped by Tia.

Now that she has been rescued with great difficulty, the church will certainly not be stupid enough to speak up for Lin En.

There is a mentally ill guy who wants to take everything and clear his own saint of suspicion, so of course they are happy to see it happen.

Seeing her friend's determined eyes and weak and pale face, Louise hesitated for a moment and finally spoke.

"Right now, Lynn Bartleron is still wanted as a limb grafter and the culprit who murdered the prince and assassinated the councillors." She spoke very slowly, looking at the girl in front of her carefully, "As for the reason."

"That night, after you fell unconscious, he took all the blame for you in front of everyone."

In an instant, Tia's emerald green pupils slowly dilated.

"What did you say?"
