Chapter 136 Madame? soon not

   "It has nothing to do with us."

  Lin En's eyelids drooped slightly, and he didn't make another sound.

  In the huge hall, because of his silence, there were no other voices.

   After a long time, Lynn slowly got up.

  He rubbed his head and said softly while relieving the dizziness in his brain.

   "Not long ago, some people, um, I don't know if they are human, anyway, I heard a story from there."

  "The flapping wings of a butterfly may, under the influence of various factors, cause a tornado that pierces the sky on the continent opposite the ocean-they call this situation the butterfly effect."

   “I found the story very interesting, especially in its interactions with people.”

  "Any of our actions may affect the final result of something, and doing nothing is also one of the choices—and it is very likely to be a bad choice."

   "Although I don't know what the end result would look like if we didn't deal with him, there is still a way to imagine a possible ending."

   "For example, the impact of the things he carried eventually spread to most of Catalina—it doesn't even need most of the seats, it just needs to attract the attention of the people above."

   "At that time, the price to be paid to solve the problem must be extremely high, and, as one of the parties involved, it is absolutely impossible for us to escape responsibility."

   "Is the thing that guy left behind so tricky?"

  The people on the other side of the shadow didn't seem to have expected such serious consequences, and there was a little surprise in their voices.

"Troublesome, very tricky." Lin En sighed slightly, "Maybe there are indeed people who can resist the intrusion of desire, but once the seeds are planted, it is difficult to pull them out. If you come into contact with something that can stimulate desire, it will be out of control. "

   "Just like tobacco, many people may try it a little at first under the guidance of others or their own curiosity. Once exposed, 99% of people may become addicted to smoking."

   "Desire is more addictive than tobacco, and it is more difficult to quit."

   "Because it does not act on the human body, but directly invades the human soul."

"if it is like this"

  Shadow was silent for a while, and said, "That's all I can do."

   "But, in this way, we need to pay a certain price, don't we?"

"This"

  “Sure enough, as they say, if you disagree with opening windows, you should demolish the walls. In this way, people will be willing to open windows.”

  ". "Shadow sighed and said, "Master Lynn, don't make fun of us."

   "Do you think there is a better solution?"

   "A better solution" Lynn narrowed his eyes, "That guy only gave us two choices."

   "Let him go, or erase him."

   "Both of these will make us pay a price, it seems that it's just the difference between more and less."

"Unfortunately."

   He looked at the stage in front of him and said softly.

   "Who stipulated that if a platform is set up, I must stand on it?"

   "Given two answers, do you have to choose between these two? This is not a written test paper."

  Shadow was startled: "Then you."

  Lin En said with a smile: "To eradicate the desire, except to let him die, it is indeed almost impossible. The only possible way is to divert the target that provokes the desire, and to suppress the desire by an irresistible external force."

  "Although we can't kill it, we can't imprison him, but someone else can."

   "Wake him up."

"yes."

Standing beside the Marquis of Kurt who slowly opened his tired eyes, Lynn looked down at him condescendingly, his lips parted slightly, and the voice he uttered was soft and ethereal, just like in a storybook, where the devil seduces mortals. whisper.

   "Sir, do you want to gamble?"

   "I won, let you go."

  At night, many manors not far from Catalina city are still brightly lit like daytime.

  In the hall, Mrs. Cotter looked at the servant who came down from upstairs and asked softly.

   "Heidi, are they all asleep?"

   "Asleep, ma'am."

   "Yeah." Mrs. Cotter rubbed her temples and nodded slightly, "Then you should go to rest first."

   "Thank you ma'am!"

  The servants left happily.

   "Madam is so kind, really, I have never seen such a considerate lady."

   "That's right, don't talk about the distance, let's talk about Mrs. Lien next door. I heard that she has killed many people this month."

   "So scary? It's okay, it's okay."

   "Sigh, poor lady who is such a good lady has such a husband. You said, there is not much difference between the status of the lady and the master, so why?"

   "Shut up, you!"

  “.”

  Mrs. Cotter ignored the whispers of the servants, walked to the bed silently, and looked up at the sky.

  Cotter Manor was built on the mountainside, and it can be attacked and retreated. It is not bad in terms of location. From a distance, you can even see the towering city walls of Catalina.

"Ugh."

  Looking at the city wall, Mrs. Cotter sighed again.

  Although the manor is huge, in fact, she doesn't like it very much.

  Because this was not the wish I had made with my husband at the beginning.

  Mrs. Cotter and Marquis Cotter are actually a pair of childhood sweethearts. From school uniforms to wedding dresses, there has been almost no major quarrel. Coupled with their matching identities, the two have been called a model couple by the outside world since they got married.

  When they first got married, Mrs. Cotter and the Marquis Cotter once made great wishes together in front of their wedding photos.

   "Let's work together to move our home into Brilliant Avenue!"

  This sentence, at the time, seemed very possible.

Although the people in Brilliant Avenue were all existences with status and power in the kingdom, the Marquis of Cotter at that time was excellent in terms of swordsmanship talent and getting along with others, and Mrs. Cotter herself, Nor is it mediocre.

  With the help of the two families, this is definitely a very possible thing—after all, the parents of the two families live there. Although it is just a very ordinary small house, they still live in it.

  However, all these fantasies, even the very possible future, changed after the Marquis of Cotter was invited to somewhere on Seventeenth Street.

  Not only did he acquire a hobby of collecting wine, but what was even more frightening was that he became addicted to gambling.

  At the beginning, the Marquis of Cotter told her that it was just a joke among friends, but Mrs. Cotter didn't take it seriously, after all, the nobles did use these facts to socialize.

  But from the time when Marquis Kurt lost all the expensive clothes and pocket watches she specially customized for him, the nature of the matter changed.

  Since then, every activity of the Marquis of Kurt is either to hide wine, or to work hard to earn gambling money. The foundation of the goal he set has been changed.

   Don’t talk about moving your family to Brilliant Avenue, because after the death of the old Marquis Cotter, the residence on Brilliant Avenue that was left to him was lost to others because of her husband’s "carelessness".

  If it wasn't for Mrs. Cotter's real ability to quietly start to control the property by herself when she realized that she couldn't stop the Marquis of Cotter's behavior, then let alone live in the manor, I'm afraid I won't even be able to live in the thatched cottage.

  During the change of the Marquis of Cotter, Mrs. Cotter couldn't hold back several times, especially after he lost the house on Brilliant Avenue, she lived directly in her mother's house for a year.

  If Earl Cotter hadn't brought a few children to beg her, then she would never agree to live with him again.

  However, facing the tearful faces of the children, no matter how tough a woman is, she will inevitably soften her heart.

   She returned to the manor only after asking the Marquis of Kurt to swear an oath in front of the Star Goddess Statue, promising not to make mistakes again, and quitting any "gambling" behavior.

  It’s just that, later on, she finally understood that it’s better to believe in a sow than to trust a man.

After she came back, the Marquis of Kurt seemed to restrain himself a little, and he went home every day on the surface. However, when she went to check the account book one day, she found several loopholes. torn.

  Mrs. Cotter is so angry, she directly broke through the sky and rushed to the sky.

   This time, unless the Goddess of Starlight descends, no one will be able to stop her.

  She used all her resources on the spot to control all the sources of income of the Marquis of Kurt.

  Hey, don't tell me, this works.

   Saying good things doesn't work, but this tough move gave a response.

  Marquis Kurt did not gamble anymore, because he was lying on the bed, his whole body was so weak that he couldn't eat even if he was fed, his face was as white as a piece of paper, and he looked like he was about to die.

  Mrs. Cotter didn't know what made her possibly glorious husband become like this, but there was no way, years of friendship made it impossible for her to really see her husband die because of this.

  After making a difficult choice, she had no choice but to open up the economy for him.

  After that, the Marquis of Cotter seemed to be able to run away that day, but with Mrs. Cotter's control, he was still restrained.

  Where is the convergence?

   is budgeting carefully.

   In the past, one gold coin might not be enough for his tail, but now, he can use it as ten times.

This seems to be a blessing in misfortune, but it is a pity that although the chips have become smaller, the number has increased, and the increase in number will lead to an increase in the time of the game, which is reflected in the event, which is the return of the Marquis of Kurt. The time at home is getting later and later.

   After looking at the distant city wall for a long time, Mrs. Cotter finally looked back.

   It seems that tonight will not be able to wait again.

  Shaking her head, she turned around.

   And the moment she turned around, her gaze was silently frozen.

  Beside the sofa not far away, her husband was being **** and thrown there, struggling. Seeing her turn around, the sound of "woo woo" kept coming out of his blocked mouth.

   On the sofa next to him, a man in a black robe and a mask was sitting peacefully on it. He even raised his hand and greeted her with ease.

   "Good evening, beautiful lady, sorry, my words may be biased."

  The figure in black robe touched his bosom, then stretched out his hand, showed a brilliant diamond ring in front of the woman, and tossed it very lightly.

   "Beauty is a fact, but Mrs. Cotter. Not soon."
