Midnight Offering

Chris's executive ability surprised me. I didn't expect that in a few days, he had already found Catherine's residence.

However, what surprised me most was not this, but the meaning of his words.

Is Catherine really alive as I thought?

Chris didn't look flustered at all. He reached out and picked up the teapot on the table naturally. He poured some tea into the cup in front of him. He hooked his finger on the handle of the small teacup and drank the tea.

I was in a trance because of Catherine's affairs, when I saw his behavior, I was shocked.

"There are people who have been drinking cups..." I quickly stretched out my hand to grab the cup in his hand. Unexpectedly, he raised his hand quickly and avoided my action. His lips pressed on the side of his body just now and drank the tea in the cup.

My face turned red. My hand was frozen in the air. I watched him finish drinking water. I didn't know what to do for a long time. Chris didn't care. Before putting down the cup, his other hand handed over the document bag and said, "open it and have a look."

He drank all the drinks, and the cups were touched. What I could do could not retrieve this fact. I had to pretend to be calm, glanced at the direction of the bathroom, blushed, and took the file bag.

"Why does Miss Rong look nervous?"

Chris looked at me with a smile on his face. I looked at the cup in his hand and looked at him again. There was a sly light in his beautiful light green eyes.

This is an old fox's eyes, I secretly curled my lips. I don't like to deal with such people. I'm not a smart person. I don't have any city government. In front of Chris's eyes, I feel like I've been ripped off.

He knows everything, and he still pretends to be stupid.

Is that what he has been hiding under his gentleman's appearance?

One of the two file bags is the original English materials. I stare at two lines, and my eyes are sour. There are all kinds of long and strange difficult words in it, which is really embarrassing for me who can pass CET-4 or CET-6.

Chris chuckled and pointed to another bag on the table.

"It's translated. You can see this one."

A sense of embarrassment quickly hit me. I opened another file bag unnaturally and quickly looked through it. Finally, I solved some doubts in my heart!

Catherine is really alive!

Katherine's information is clearly marked in the document, including her current family status. To my surprise, she was not married, but she adopted a lot of children. These children are now grown up and have their own career and family. They are surprised and shocked that their adoptive mother is not getting old, but they did not disclose this.

Seeing the pictures of her and her children, I couldn't help feeling.

In the memory of that period of Emily, Catherine said to her that she would adopt Emily as her daughter, but she did not know how it came to such an end!

At the moment, seeing the smiling faces on the photos, my heart is very bad.

If Emily had not died, would she have grown up healthily and happily under the care of Catherine?

No, it won't.

The brain quickly gave me an answer. Even though Emily looked very young, her eyes saw more and her heart understood more than anyone else.

Brown did those inhuman things, and the pain would eventually come to Emily.

Her physical defects, coupled with Brown's influence on her, I feel that this tragedy has freed Emily.

As she wishes, go to heaven and become a little angel.

"We haven't got in touch with Ms. Catherine, so it's not convenient to visit. We'll go to her place when we get there, but I think you've already got some answers when you see this information."

I recovered, frowned, and continued to read.

"Miss Rong, there should be no mistake in your guess. Miss Catherine may really be the host of the ghost crystal."

My fingers rubbed against the smooth surface of the photo, and I heard Chris speak slowly and fluently, and I had an accurate answer.

I closed my eyes, tried to forget what I saw in Emily's memory, and shook my head.

Everything is over, that thing has been in the past. It is not a good thing to let it affect my mood and thinking too much.

"If it is, I think the problem of yin and Yang here should be solved soon. You should be happy. Chris, why, I don't see your expression as a relief."

Chris sat in his chair with his hands around his chest. He didn't answer. His long legs crossed and overlapped. His eyes were fixed on Anning's used teacup, as if hesitating.

The relaxed smile on his face swept away, as if it had never appeared before. The clouds were all over his head, which made his face very dark and ugly.The room was quiet for a long time, and I even couldn't sit still. Just as I was about to ask, he showed a puzzled look and said to me, "to be honest, Miss Rong, the settler and an Xuan are sending news from the front line."

"In several places where Yin is extremely heavy, there are tough demons again, so I hope that we can find Catherine as soon as possible, find the ghost crystal, make it return to its position, and stabilize the balance between the two worlds."

Just as Chris said this, I heard a sound coming from the bathroom, like something falling to the ground. Chris sat up straight and looked at the bathroom: "huh?"

I bit my teeth and knew that Anning heard the content of our communication. Grandfather Ann and an Xuan are her most important people, and they are her last two closest people in the world. How can such news from the front line not make her feel nervous and afraid?

"Miss Rong, is the bathroom occupied?"

Chris asked, and I quickly waved my hand. "No, you heard me wrong. Maybe the bed in the bathroom is not closed. Blow the jar of cleanser to the floor."

"Tell me more about the situation. How are Grandfather an and an Xuan now?"

I managed to divert his attention. He looked complicated and puzzled.

This expression, I see the heart will suddenly sink!

"Three days ago, we received the news of the bad situation on the front line, but before they finished reporting, our contact was broken for unknown reasons. Up to now, we have not received any news."

"What are you talking about?"

Two voices at the same time! I suddenly got up from my seat and slapped my hand on the table. Anning could not help it any more. I rushed out of the bathroom and yelled nervously and scared!

"Peace!"

I saw her come out, embarrassed on my face, and heard Chris's calm voice in my ear: "you're hiding here."

Anning rushed to Chris in front of her. She stretched out her hand and grabbed his collar. Her eyes were wide and wide. I even saw her white eyes covered with red blood.

"Make it clear to me, Chris, what does it mean to have no more messages? You mean they lost contact with us? Why didn't you tell me earlier, why! I don't care. I'm going to find them! Tell me where their mission is

Chris stood up, put his powerful arms around her body, and comforted her, "take it easy. Don't worry. I've sent someone over."

"You let go! Let me go! Tell me where they are, or I'll never forgive you in my life! "

Anning was completely confused by impulse, her eyes were wide and her face was ferocious.

"Calm down first..."

"Calm down? It doesn't exist. If you don't say it or not, I'll go to David's house and ask. Today I just want to know a definite answer! " Peace of speech is like a chain of pearls, crackling and popping out.

Without waiting for Chris to say anything more, she pushed Chris open and ran toward the door, slamming the door open and leaving quickly.

Chris stood stupidly where he stood, looking at the empty door, and the sound of footsteps moving farther and farther away. He put down his hands.

"You know peace is with me."

I stood behind him. I looked at the cup of tea and narrowed my eyes.

"From the time you see this teacup, you know peace is here."

"At first, I didn't think of the possibility that you and I were still in the front, but I didn't think of the possibility that you and I were still in the front

"Then you should stop the topic, or tell me in a more euphemistic way, instead of being so direct."

I look at him discontentedly, what kind of status is grandfather Ann and an Xuan in her heart, I think Chris can't understand better.

He could have told me at another time that, who knows, he is so straightforward and has nothing to hide.

"She will know sooner or later."

I covered my forehead, rubbed my forehead with my fingers, and looked at several documents on the table: "how is the war going? Do you know?"

Chris shook his head.

"Damn it!" I hammered down the table and didn't even know the situation of the war. Does that mean that the front line has completely lost contact with the aid parties in the rear. In this way, if something unexpected happens on the front line, we have no time to prepare and deal with it.

Now, there are only two things we can do.

Waiting for news from the front line, and then contact Katherine to find the ghost crystal as soon as possible. In this way, as long as it returns to its original position, those areas with fluctuations will naturally be restored.

"And please contact Catherine as soon as possible, and I hope I can go with you if I can."

Chris and I were looking at each other.

"Because I know what she's been through, I have a way to persuade her to work with us."
