A bony and slender hand stretched out from the curtain and opened the curtain from the middle. As the curtain was opened, the appearance of the figure inside was also revealed.
He was a tall and stern man with a slim and slender figure. He was wearing a tuxedo. The style was similar to that of the staff outside, except that the color of the tuxedo he wore was white. He looked very low-key, but if you look closely, you will find that the cold white
There are a lot of fine dark silver embroidery patterns on the knitted fabric.
Therefore, it only looks low-key, but in fact it is not.
Coupled with his handsome face and neat short silver hair, the overall look gives people an elegant feeling.
Of course, the premise of all this is to ignore the droopy dog ears on the other side's head and the fluffy tail hanging behind him.
After the other party opened the curtain, he subconsciously lowered his head to look at Xiao Hong. After confirming that Xiao Hong was fine, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief and raised his head to look at the figures behind Xiao Hong.
When he saw clearly the people behind Xiaohong, he was stunned.
In those few seconds when he was stunned, Angel could clearly see that his eyes slowly changed from looking at him to surprise, eagerness, surprise and grievance.
Until Laplace spoke softly: "Long time no see. Meatballs."
He suddenly came back to his senses and nodded to Laplace in a panic: "I, I didn't expect that you would come, sir. Well, long time no see."
After seeing Laplace, he even started to speak a little randomly and stuttered. At this time, Xiaohong also looked at Laplace with curious eyes.
She could vaguely feel before that Laplace had a similar aura to Brother Dog, and felt that there was some kind of connection with Brother Dog. This was also the reason why she was willing to bring Laplace and others over. Now it seems
, her judgment was correct.
However, Brother Dog's excited expression still surprised her. What is the relationship between Sister Hair and Brother Dog?
Could it be that it was the relationship between the prince and the princess that was described in the picture book? Thinking of the picture book she had hidden under her pillow, Xiao Hong couldn't help but feel a trace of blush on her cheeks.
Xiaohong's expression did not attract everyone's attention. The dog butler sensed Xiaohong's inner thoughts, but it was too lazy to care about Xiaohong's drawing book at this time. All its thoughts were focused on Laplace.
In a sense, Laplace is not only its savior, but also its only relative in this world. It knows that Laplace does not like liveliness, and it has never dared to disturb Laplace too much in the past.
Laplace. But its longing for Laplace has never stopped.
Because of this, when it saw Laplace appearing in front of it, the sudden excitement instantly filled its heart.
Even his hands were shaking and he didn't know where to put them.
On the other side, Angel also noticed the excitement of the other party. He was still guessing whether this person was the Dog Butler, but from Laplace's greeting and the other party's apparent excitement, he was sure that this person must be the Dog Butler.
.
The Dog Butler's excitement was not only reflected in his trembling body, but also in his ears that suddenly stood up, and his tail that swayed like a windmill behind his back.
Angel even felt that if the tail wagged any faster, it might fly into the sky.
"Hey, you can't just wag your tail. We have something else to do with you. Shouldn't you invite us in to talk?" Seeing that the canine butler was silent for a long time, Luigi simply walked forward, breaking the canine butler's excitement of seeing each other again after a long absence.
Atmosphere.
The Dog Butler naturally knew Luigi, and after hearing Luigi's words, his mood did calm down a bit. He originally thought that Lapras came to see him specially, but...it seemed that he thought wrong.
However, this thought only existed in my mind for a second or two and then disappeared.
No matter what Laplace is here for, as long as he can see Laplace, it is a surprise. "Sir, please forgive me for being negligent, please come with me." The canine butler lifted him up gently.
Curtain, said respectfully to Laplace.
However, Laplace did not enter immediately. Instead, he lowered his head silently and looked at the dancing tail behind the canine butler, which was almost only a shadow.
If Inu Butler's tail was just drooping, it wouldn't affect anything. But now it's almost spinning and taking off, occupying more than half of the door.
The canine butler didn't understand what Laplace meant at first. It wasn't until he lowered his head that he realized that his tail was wagging unconsciously.
Its cheeks turned red and it stammered: "I, I didn't pay attention before." Laplace was silent for a moment and said slowly: "I don't blame you."
The dog butler tried his best to control it, but it seemed that no matter how he controlled it, it would swing unconsciously.
This is an instinctive action.
After thinking about it, Butler Dog stepped back slightly, and a silvery-white light flashed out of its eyes. The moment the light appeared, it enveloped its body.
The next second, as the light flickered, the tall body of the Inu Butler began to slowly shrink. In a short while, it changed from a two-meter-tall human form to a pure white puppy less than one meter tall.
I can't tell the type of dog, but it looks a bit like a dog.
The cold white tuxedo has also shrunk. Wearing it, it doesn't look out of place, but has a cute feeling.
Only the pair of shiny leather shoes disappeared. At this time, the canine butler walked on the floor, and the dull sound was no longer, but turned into a rhythmic sound of "ta da da".
The canine butler, who had transformed into a dog body, did not block the way even though his tail was still wagging unconsciously. Everyone also filed into the butler's house.
······.
The furnishings in the butler's house are very simple, even simple. There are solid wood floors and a few pieces of wooden furniture.
Only the waiting room was covered with white carpet and some simple decorations. At this time, the dog butler was sitting at the deputy seat of the long table in the waiting room.
——
The main seat is empty.
Originally, the Dog Butler wanted Laplace to sit in the main seat, but Laplace had no intention of taking over. Instead, he sat across from the Dog Butler and also sat in the deputy seat.
Angel and Luigi sat next to Laplace respectively.
Xiaohong, who had brought them here before, was instigated by the dog steward and turned into a temporary servant girl, busy carrying tea cups.
The brief greetings still did not suppress the enthusiasm in the canine deacon's heart. But it saw that Laplace seemed to have something to say, so it restrained its eagerness to continue expressing its longing, and took the initiative to ask: "Sir, are you coming here today?
, I don’t know what’s wrong? I will definitely try my best to help.”
Laplace didn't even say what the specific matter was, but the Dog Butler offered to help. This shows the importance of Laplace in the Dog Butler's heart.
Laplace: "I do have something to do when I come here. I hope you can help. But it's not my business, but this person's." Laplace turned to look at Angel.
Angel immediately understood and took the initiative to introduce himself.
It was only then that Butler Canine looked at Angel for the first time. Although Angel had cat ears on his head, he could feel that Angel was a pure human being.
Facing Angel, the Dog Butler subconsciously wanted to use his talent to see through Angel's mind. However, just when the Dog Butler was about to use his talent, Laplace's eyes suddenly looked at it.
Laplace knew its abilities, and even studied the source of its abilities, and knew some of its small movements when it activated its abilities.
During that period of time when he was being studied, Canine Butler knew what he was going to do with a look from Laplace. At this time, Laplace's look was preventing him from using his abilities.
Although the canine butler did not know the origin of Angel, nor the relationship between Laplace and Angel, he still obeyed Laplace's request, suppressed his interest in exploring, and listened carefully to Angel.
Your words.
And what Angel said was naturally related to Sipolov.
However, originally Angel only planned to ask about Sipolov's location, but under Graipnir's suggestion, Angel told the whole story about his search for Sipolov.
Including, Angel did not hide the fact that he was interested in Xinhuo.
According to Gleipnir, Sipolov is at best
It gives you the opportunity to get in touch with the people behind him, and thereby bring you closer to the Heart Fire Palace. But if you want to be recognized by the Heart Fire Temple, Sipolov can't help you.
Wanshiwu knows all the tribes in the White Sun Mirror Territory. They know the secrets of various energy systems in detail, and maybe they have also conducted in-depth research on the inner fire of the Yingji tribe.
Therefore, Gleipnir suggested that Angel should not hide his covetousness for Heart Fire, but instead suggested that the Dog Butler might be able to help in this regard.
Angel's story was very complete and detailed. After hearing this, Butler Dog did not reply immediately, but fell into deep thought.
To outsiders, the Dog Butler seemed to be thinking about what Angel told him. But in fact, the Dog Butler was not thinking about the anger between Sipolov and the Yingji tribe. He was thinking about the relationship between Laplace and Angel.
relation.
Because in the eyes of the dog steward, whether it is Sipolov or Xinhuo, it is not a big deal, and there is no need to fight. It can be solved just by talking. That is why it feels confused.
Is this kind of thing worth dispatching a clone of Laplace? Can Luigi and Gleipnir handle it?
What is Angel's identity that makes Laplace care so much?
According to Angel's own statement, he is from the Southern Region and is an alchemist. It admits that alchemists are rare talents and must be treated as honored guests even in the House of Everything.
But can these alone really attract Laplace's attention? What kind of existence is Laplace, and does he really care about the alchemy of the Southern Territory?
Or is this human being related to Naraku City?
The Dog Butler knows about the existence of the Wise Lord, and also knows that the Wise Lord is kind to Laplace. If Angel is related to the Wise Lord, it can explain a lot of things.
But, is the answer really like this?
Perhaps it was because Butler Inu was silent for a long time that Laplace guessed what Butler Inu was thinking. She thought about it and took the initiative to say, "No matter what questions you have, you can ask now."
Laplace took the initiative to give him a step, and the Dog Butler naturally went down the steps. The Dog Butler nodded and put on a serious expression.
In the opinion of the dog steward, its expression is very serious. But in Angel's opinion, now that it has the body of a dog, no matter how serious the dog is, it also has a bit of simplicity.
Angel was too embarrassed to look directly into Butler Dog's eyes, so he could only look away.
Fortunately, the butler dog didn't notice Angel's expression. At this time, it only had Laplace in its eyes: "I do have a question to ask, sir. Why do you want to help Angel?"
"
It was actually a bit rude to directly ask Angel in front of him. However, from the perspective of the dog butler, it was not important whether he was rude to Angel or not. What was important was Laplace's answer, which decided that he would help Angel.
To what extent.
Laplace: "Angel is my most important partner."
Laplace deliberately emphasized the word "most" to show his attitude. Butler Dog was silent for a moment and nodded: "I understand."
Although it still didn't know what happened between Laplace and Angel, the Dog Butler remembered that when it asked about Laplace's relationship with the Wise Lord, Laplace never said "the most important thing"
"Character.
From this, we can see that Laplace attaches great importance to Angel.
Since Laplace valued Angel so much, Butler Dog also decided to help Angel to the end. He looked at Angel and said, "I can help you check Sipolov's location first."
As he spoke, Butler Dog called Xiao Hong.
Deacon Dog untied the bell from his neck and gave it to Xiao Hong. This was a token representing the deacon himself and had extremely high authority. Through this token, it was enough to check Sipolov's location.
After Xiao Hong left in a hurry, Luigi couldn't help but ask the question in his heart: "Is this Xiao Hong your direct investigator?"
Butler Dog nodded: "Yes."
Luigi: "Does she have some special abilities like you?"
Butler Dog pondered for a moment and said, "Did Xiaohong say something strange when he brought you here?" "It's not strange.
"Luigi briefly told what happened on the road.
Butler Dog: "Your guess is correct. Xiaohong's sense of smell is indeed very special. She can smell some special information. But this kind of smelled information is not necessarily a deep smell, but a kind of smell that can only be smelled by
Special information that she interpreted by herself."
The smell that Xiaohong smells, or the information she gets, is actually different from different people. The more powerful or mysterious the person, the more difficult it is to decipher the smell.
She could smell Laplace and Luigi's smell similar to that of the Canine Butler, but that was all. She couldn't smell any deeper smells or deeper information.
The smell on Angel's body was undoubtedly the smell produced by the evil witch's blessing not long ago. In addition, Xiao Hong could not smell the smell from a longer time.
This ability, due to limitations and the fact that the information obtained is too random, is not as strong as Luigi imagined. But in some aspects, it is very unique.
For example, the analysis of the Hollow Man, the interpretation of the corpse, etc.
After the Hollow Man was washed away by the Sea of Empty Mirrors, many things disappeared, including memory and consciousness. However, Xiaohong can use special abilities to smell some strange smells that are difficult for ordinary people to detect. After interpreting these smells, they may appear
