Beautiful cannon fodder does not want to show up [Quick Transmigration]

Chapter 163

In the southeast of the Ledu Kingdom, there is a vast and luxurious manor known throughout the country, the Frank Manor.

The terrain of the entire manor not only includes pastures, farmland, but also a clear river meandering through it.

As for the adjacent forest farm, it was mortgaged by the previous Sir Frank for nothing, and now it no longer belongs to the Frank family, and even the neighbors' consent is required to enter and exit.

Old Mr. Frank was a bad gambler, and he liked to take care of the business of young women standing on the street. He lost most of his family property in just ten years, and left Dalton Frank with an illegitimate half-brother.

Fortunately, he died in a timely manner. Before he mortgaged the Frank family's most important estate, he died indecently on Chunying's belly.

People who heard the news were subconsciously happy for Dalton.

The only pity is that old Frank once sold the happiness of his son Dalton's life for just a few dozen gold coins-he actually let Dalton marry a crazy married wife!

Although Dalton was under the threat of his father, he only met the lunatic once when he concluded the marriage contract under the witness of the priest, and then the freshly baked Dalton wife was locked in the highest attic in the castle by the servants to prevent Do something to discredit the nobles, but the nobles still sympathize with Dalton.

Many famous ladies, young women, and even some aristocratic young masters with special hobbies secretly offered olive branches to Dalton. Unexpectedly, they were all rejected.

Dalton-Frank seems to hate his father's profligacy, so even if his wife is a lunatic locked in the attic, he never thinks about having feelings with others, and concentrates on studying status and power.

This seems to have won the admiration of many people-although there are many people who laugh at him as a fool in private.

Of course, as a detective who passed here, because of the late weather and high fever, he had to reveal his identity to his master and stay for a few days, Harlan would never talk about his private affairs.

It’s just that he was arranged to live in a comfortable guest room in the castle. The top of the next door is the attic that is rumored to lock up lunatics who can hurt people and occasionally make strange noises. Therefore, as a detective, Harlan habitually called out everything in his mind. Information related to the Frank estate.

"Hi, Mr. Harlan, this is your dinner, may God bless you with a speedy recovery!"

The muscular footman interrupted Harlan's contemplation. He gently placed the wooden dinner plate on the chair beside the bed, then got up impatiently and walked backwards, lest he catch a terrible high fever.

It is very rude for the servant to leave before the nobles have spoken.

But Harlan didn't care about such small things. In this dark and backward era where even food poisoning can kill people, it's normal for servants to be afraid of people with fever.After all, they don't have the money to buy those expensive recovery potions!

Even if Dalton can provide detective Harlan with potions without hesitation, it doesn't mean that the servants who are "furniture" in the castle can get the gift.

"Please close the door for me, may the Lord bless you!"

Harlan yelled quickly when the male servant retreated to the door, and at the same time manipulated his somewhat weak body to sit up.

According to some modern scientific methods, combined with the potion in the evening, he has almost recovered—yes, Harlan is an unknown traveler.

He was directly conceived on the body of the unfavored prince, and the queen was his biological mother, so he had no worries about food and clothing, but he suffered a lot of mental damage: when he was just a child, he ran into the king's father and Mother's handmaiden 'plays' behind sculpture in garden!

In an instant, Harun's mind flashed a lot of secrets about the royal family, thinking about how he could leave the scene with less embarrassment.

In fact, due to the excessive stimulation, the innocent little Prince Harlan, who had never had a relationship between a man and a man in his previous life, fainted on the spot for two seconds—the whole palace was in a frenzy for a long time, and even the king restrained himself For half a month.

As the only legitimate legitimate child who can inherit the throne, Harun's safety is really important.After all, in the Middle Ages, the chance of child death was really high.

When the eldest prince grows up under the care of Harun—although it sounds strange, Harlan has indeed devoted a lot of effort to his brother.

In short, after having a healthy, adult prince in the palace, Harun was less restrained, and he was even able to continue his previous career, hiding his identity as a detective to find out the truth of the case.The small flintlock pistol he carried with him did a good job of keeping him safe.

Harlan touched his left chest to make sure that the carefully crafted palm-sized flintlock was still on his body and was not loaded. Then he dug out two thick pieces of bread from the small portable box next to his pillow, and put them together. A small bottle of jam, and a small pitcher of clean water.

As for the food served by the footman—Harlan really did not agree with the kitchen hygiene of the strange manor in the middle ages.

After eating dinner, most of his strength has gradually recovered.

Normally, his followers would be able to find him based on the horseshoe prints by tomorrow morning at the latest.

At this time, the moonlight outside the window gently shone on the floor in front of Harlan's bed. There was no need to worry about mosquitoes in this tall castle room, and the lights below were also turned off one by one. Tranquility came over me.

Harlan was fascinated for a while, as if bewitched by the moon, he walked a few steps slowly and found the hollowed-out stone window. Since castle windows are usually opened higher, the lowest point of this window even reached the man's chest. Harun could only lean his neck out of the stone window and enjoy the natural scenery of the moonlit night outside.

It didn't take long for Harlan to feel that the scenery was really monotonous, so he prepared to go back to the bed that was not really soft to rest.

thump - squeak -

Hey, what's that sound?

Harlan subconsciously turned his head to the upper right, and saw the small window next to the attic at a glance. Under the bright moonlight, a hand whiter than the clearest milk rested on the window. With good eyesight, haha Len could almost see the round, pink nails on one of the fingers.

That is simply an incomparable work of art!With unbelievably perfect lines, icy muscles and bones that almost glisten, none of the master sculptures collected in the entire kingdom can match this hand——Harlan thought so at first.

But soon, the hand moved slightly, gripping the edge of the stone window tighter, and the blood on the fingertips was squeezed and slightly faded away.

OMG!

It was not someone admiring a work of art, but the hand of a person who actually existed in the world!

Harlan was stunned, and it occurred to him that Dalton's crazy wife should live in the attic, and no one would waste money sending art in there.

The strange thing is that Harlan has been living here for a long time, and he hasn't heard any unusual movements from the rumored lunatic.

Could it be that normal people were locked in the attic?Could it be yet another case to be investigated?

In view of that too beautiful hand, Harlan kept thinking about it.If Mrs. Frank is really mentally impaired, he can also help!For example, take advantage of some modern restorative treatments that make…

thump - squeak -

Again.

The second hand also appeared on the window sill, and the slightly rough rock almost separated the hands with red marks.Then, a "woman" with long dark brown hair scattered like seaweed emerged from the small window, with her delicate and small chin resting on her hands, looking at the scenery outside expectantly.

Harun, who was silently staring at the hand in a daze, suddenly lost all thinking ability, his eyes were instantly occupied by the mysterious beauty's face, he almost forgot that he was still leaning against the window, subconsciously stretched out his hand to the beauty, and almost fell down— —If it wasn't for the beauty suddenly disappearing from the window, Harlan would have lost his center of gravity and fell.

Fortunately, he saved himself in time and staged the "Frank Manor Suicide Tragedy" himself.

However, even though he almost paid the price with his life, the figure of the attic beauty always lingered in Harlan's heart.

"Is that Dalton's mad wife?"

"There is only one person locked up in the attic, and there is also the iconic seaweed hair and ruby ​​eyes-the purest and most beautiful eyes that seem to be a gift from the gods, but the outside world even says they are terrible demon eyes!"

Harlan was talking to himself, and there was a huge storm in his mind. On the calm island in the middle, there sat the beautiful woman who made him feel so fascinated, and most of the surrounding waves were from his heart. Words of love, and everything you've ever heard about "Frank Manor," "Dalton," "Mad Wife," and so on.

Information is streamlined, curated, reorganized.

Overnight, Harlan had dozens of speculations and no less than twenty plans to take away the beauty.

In his heart, the most likely guess is: the so-called "crazy wife" is entirely to avoid people's eyes and ears and imprison the beauty!The seemingly sanctimonious Dalton probably failed to woo the beauty, so he forcibly locked her up, and he was the only one to visit and pursue.

Otherwise, how could no one outside know what Dalton's wife looks like?In the corridors of this kind of manor, oil portraits of the manor owner and his wife should be hung!But there is no painting about the owner and wife of the manor in the corridor of the Frank Manor.

This shows how possessive Dalton is to the beauty!

So, he stole the beauty, and Dalton couldn't prove that the beauty was the wife in the attic, right? !

A thought suddenly flashed through.

Bah bah bah!Harlan!How can you have no shame!How can you think of going against the wishes of the beauty? !

However, if the beauty is willing to leave with me, then it is not my fault - Dalton did not know how to cherish the beauty and failed to win the beauty's heart!

Harun, who had tasted love for the first time, thought of the beautiful scene with the beauty in the future, and became even more imaginative.

the other side.

attic.

Qiao Yu barely stepped on the rotten stool, climbed on the window sill, and gazed longingly at the scenery outside.

It has been more than half a month since he recovered the memory of his previous life.

Perhaps it is the blessing of the gods, his madness has eased a bit, and he can only speak out word by word, and he will not stop like a waterfall when he speaks like a waterfall in his previous life. Once you can't tell the second person again.

This disease is simply a sharp weapon to attract hatred!

His stepmother, who had revealed the news of his affair with the groom to his face, became angry because of this, and persuaded his drunk father to spend money to disguise him as a woman and give it to the Frank family. Don Frank did!

In fact, Qiao Yu had never scolded anyone. If it weren't for Dalton's later actions, it wouldn't be bad if he was locked up in the attic and raised with food and drink, as long as he could get some oil canvas and paints through the servants on a regular basis. , and don't even think about escaping.

It's a pity that he also thought so in his previous life, but in the end he was fired upon by Dalton, who was eager to marry his true love slave in a fair manner, and ended his life.

After death, Qiao Yu hovered in the attic in a daze, watching people coming in and out a few years later, and only after being reborn did he understand what happened.

It's the famous detective Harlan!He was invited to come to the Frank Manor for treasure hunting, and as a result, he cracked the "accidental suicide" case of the former Mrs. Frank, which caused Dalton's title to fall again and again.

Can it be regarded as revenge for yourself?But he had passed away at that time, so there was not much comfort.

But now, the reborn Qiao Yu just wanted to leave this manor as soon as possible!

These days, due to the change in his way of speaking, the servant who delivered his meals thought that he was finally possessed by a legendary demon, so he dared not speak to him again, and would just silently pass his meals through the narrow stone gate. Push in the hole.

This made Qiao Yu, who hadn't seen anyone for several years after being locked in the attic, even more depressed. She could only take advantage of the moonlit night to look at the scenery outside the window to get some air.

Before he was reborn, he tried to relax by looking out of the window during the day. The good servant told Dalton that Qiao Yu was starved for two days as a result.

From then on, even after her rebirth, Qiao Yu subconsciously stopped looking at the scenery during the day.

However, the person who saw me just now looks familiar, who is it?

Qiao Yu looked at the ceiling, and when she was about to fall asleep, she suddenly remembered - it was him!The detective who helped him reveal the truth about his death in his previous life!

The memory of the ghost state in the previous life is really bad, and it took him so long to remember it.

Thinking of this vaguely, Qiao Yu fell into a dreamland.
