The Righteous Player(s) - Chapter 268

[Chapter 266 Number of 6]

When Annan held her hand, Kaphne was suddenly stunned.

Her body was a little stiff.

Kaphne’s eyes widened slightly, her pupils were as clear as red glass, filled with confusion and consternation.

… Kaphne at this time, are her hands so soft?

Annan’s mind came up with such an idea for the first time.

He has been pulled by Kafne many times…but if I want to talk about his impression, her hand is different from the appearance, and it is extraordinarily powerful.

Although there were no calluses and her skin was unusually fair, when she held Annan’s hand, Annan couldn’t break free…

And now Kaphne’s palm is even soft to the point of being weak.

… Kaphne at this time, isn’t she a superhuman?

Annan was slightly startled.

This means…

Kaphne has advanced from an ordinary person to a silver-level superhuman within four or five years?

She doesn’t even have a basic job now…

This level up speed is too scary, right?

But Annan suddenly noticed something.

There were very obvious calluses on the palms of Annan’s palms when he was young – this should be the traces produced when practicing swords.

……Yes.

When Annan used the Frost Sword Technique for the first time, the “Young Annan” that appeared in his mind was almost his current age.

Has Annan started to practice frost swordsmanship now?

“When we hold hands together, we are friends.”

Annan made a tender and serious voice: “If someone bullies you, I will help you beat him.”

Before speaking, Annan reconsidered his tone several times.

In the end it was hard to figure out what to say.

This should be what a nine-year-old boy should say… right?

Annan suddenly felt that he should change his name.

In his current situation, he should not be called Annan, but Edogawa Conan…

Annan knew very well.

The clue lies in Kaphne… In order to save time, he needs to attack Kaphne with the fastest efficiency.

Don’t expect Kaphne to “join the team” right away, but at least make Kaphne willing to “give information”.

His grip on Kaphne grew tighter.

But he’s holding on well and doesn’t pinch her—so it doesn’t get her attention.

At this time, if Kaphne broke Annan’s hand or pushed Annan away because of nervousness or something—then the atmosphere between them would immediately become distant and indifferent.

If Annan tried to catch Kaphne again, she would firmly reject him.

This is because, when Kafney herself has a good impression of Annan, she can’t tell at a young age whether she should keep a polite distance or maintain her current state.

Suppose she tried to push Annan away, or tried to free her hand, without success.

She will subconsciously think that she really longs for such a friend… and if she successfully rejects Annan once, she will immediately wake up and remain calm and vigilant.

But Annan didn’t want to use brute force to grab Kaphne –

after all, Kaphne’s identity is basically as noble as herself.

As a foreign guest, he shouldn’t be too rude… The maid just watched.

However, based on Annan’s experience, he doesn’t need brute force at all…

He just squatted down, kept shaking hands, and changed the subject very naturally: “What are you painting?

” Is it a flower field?

Annan consciously took the rhythm of the conversation into his own hands.

Kaphne

in this period was obviously much more fooled than five years later.

Her attention was quickly diverted by Annan.

Or maybe she really couldn’t find anyone who could appreciate her crayons – Kaphne replied softly, a little nervously and a little uneasy, “Yes… those are the flowers.”

She was worried… Would a shorter boy laugh at his “weird and scary” drawings?

He is a rare person who is willing to chat with himself without being afraid of himself.

Kaphne is born with the ability to read people’s hearts and see the truth.

She knew… this cute blue-eyed boy really wanted to be friends with him from the bottom of his heart!

Kaphne didn’t want to lose such a rare true friend.

Fortunately, Annan did not laugh at her.

He just nodded seriously: “It’s really a good painting.

” You might become a great painter in the future, Kaphne.

——This is not Annan’s flattery.

Because

Annan does know that Kaphne’s painting skills in the future are simply superb. At only fourteen years old, she has been able to copy Amos’s paintings successfully. She can paint herself. A bizarre “revelation painting” with a mysterious beauty.

And now the blood-red flower sea in her pen… This crayon painting with a rough touch already has some meaning.

Kafney also turned her head in surprise. She

looked at Annan.

She saw that Annan actually thought she was good at painting!

But even Kaphne herself felt that her painting was not very good…

“What’s the matter?

”

Annan turned his head in confusion.

Did he say something wrong?

Why was he suddenly so shocked and tangled?

Annan obviously didn’t realize… Kaphne’s ability to see through lies and people’s hearts. .

This is fourteen-year-old Kafney, never shown before Annan’s ability.

“…No, it’s nothing.”

Kaphne suddenly felt that her cheeks were a little hot.

She turned her eyes away and looked at the painting.

She made that characteristic soft, long-sounding voice, and explained actively: “Because I saw… the sky turned red. It was a color like fire… There were red vines, coming from the ground. Climb to the sky and turn the sky red.”

Kaphne took two breaths after saying such a long sentence in one breath.

Annan frowned slightly, thoughtfully.

… the red vines… crawling to the sky…?

What is this…

Kaphne is too young to describe clearly.

But she has vision…she must have seen something we can’t.

When Annan stared at the painting and thought seriously.

Kaphne was looking at him secretly.

Anna…seems to like my paintings?

Kaphne felt a little touched.

Until now, she didn’t realize… her left hand and Annan’s right hand were always together.

— but her dad saw it.

His Royal Highness Albert just came out of the side hall in a hurry… Looking at this direction, he should be looking for Kaphne.

But he saw the maid next to Sister Wang, smiling and holding out a finger in front of her mouth, motioning him to keep silent.

Only then did Albert realize something.

He looked at it from a distance – the first time he didn’t see Annan.

After all, Annan was wearing a pure white costume, almost like a protective color in this silver-purple flower sea.

But after he found the location of Annan and Kafney, his eyes became a little complicated.

…As far as he knew, His Highness Annan went to the garden just a few minutes ago.

He realized that his daughter, Kaphne, was still in the garden…she was notoriously eccentric, cold and distant, and inarticulate.

May collide with His Highness Annan.

That’s why Albert rushed over, trying to resolve the conflict.

Annan’s departure time was five minutes earlier than him.

Moreover, Annan is young, so he must not walk as fast as him… It took Annan less than three minutes to get here.

…But in such a short period of time, have you been able to lean together so intimately?

Still holding hands…

It’s only less than three minutes!

Looking at the rare excitement on Kaphne’s face, and the bright eyes that seemed to be shining, Albert even felt a little jealous… On the other hand, he couldn’t bear to destroy Kaphne’s rare joy. Pleasure.

Annan didn’t notice that Kaphne was staring at him.

He just thought hard about Kaphne’s words.

The red vines…

the red sky…

Suddenly, Annan vaguely realized something.

He put his head close, UU read www.

sonicmtl.com leaned in Kafney’s ear and asked her in a low voice – this was not something he could ask, so Annan had to keep his voice as low as possible: “How many vines have you seen, where are they? What pattern?”

Kafney’s face turned a little red when Annan got so close.

Her body leaned back slightly, and she avoided it a little in a panic.

Afterwards, she quickly calmed down, and followed Annan’s ear, whispering, “There are six… here is one. There are other five… Do you want to see it? I will take you there. ”

Sure enough –

Annan narrowed his eyes slightly.

Is it… a hexagram?

Six is the number of wars, and the month of Sanctuary of the Red Knight, the god of war, is June.

If the purpose of this ceremony is to cause war… then it is only natural to use “six” as the core to frame the ceremony.

From the ground to the sky…

Does this mean that the entire palace is a ceremonial venue?

Is it underground?

Annan temporarily put aside the speculation in his heart and nodded seriously to Kafne: “Okay, take me there.”

Kaphne did not hesitate.

She put on her boots directly, and brought Annan with her drawing board – until then, she didn’t realize that they had been holding hands for so long.

She pursed her lips and took the initiative to extend her hand to Annan.

“Let’s go, Anna.”

She said seriously, “I’ll take it to you.”.

“…It’s Annan.”

Annan corrected helplessly.
