The Original Vampire

Saiken's eyes widened, and he whispered:

"You... have you seen it a long time ago?"

Colin smiled calmly and said: "Since you deliberately distracted Nina, I guessed something was wrong."

"Then you still walked here with me?"

"I want to give you another chance. After all, I always think you are also a victim of Mr. Hooter."

Saiken opened his mouth and didn't know what to say for a while.

Colin immediately reduced his smile and said coldly: "But if you continued to walk in just now, I will kill you with a single sword, and then turn around and leave."

Saiken was silent for a moment, and finally looked up again into Colin's eyes, and said sincerely:

"Lord Earl, thank you!"

Colin smiled faintly and said: "Well, let's talk about it, what trap is set inside? Who instructed you to lead me over?"

Seems to have finally solved the knot, Saiken said without hesitation:

"My lord, there is a book on the second-row bookshelf in the third room with toxic smoke hidden in it. As long as you open this book, you will lose the ability to resist even if you don't die immediately.

And the person who set this trap was the father's maid-Cardina Knight. "

"Cardina?" Colin thought of the maid who had been standing quietly behind Franco, helping him push the wheelchair.

"Yes." Saiken nodded and added, "Actually, she is still her father's lover. After her father committed suicide by poisoning this time, she approached me and wanted me to help her complete her revenge against you."

"Lover?" Colin rubbed his chin and asked again, "I remember she had sworn allegiance to me before, so is she also a knight of the Morrison family?"

"She is a knight of allegiance to the Morrison family, but her surname is not Morrison."

"Then which family is she from?"

"I don't know." Saiken shook his head. "It is said that she is a wandering knight taken in by her father, but she has never disclosed her surname publicly."

"Then how long has she been to Fengdie Castle?"

"Probably..." Saiken thought for a while, and said with some uncertainty, "It's been about ten years."

Colin pondered for a moment, and then suddenly asked a seemingly irrelevant question: "By the way, what about your mother? Why have I never seen it?"

Saiken was stunned, but still replied: "Mother has been dead for many years."

"Do you remember when she died?"

"It was also ten years ago..." At this point, Seiken paused and seemed to realize something, "Earl, you suspect that the death of your mother is related to Cardina?"

Colin shrugged and said, "You should know this better than me."

Saiken suddenly became excited, clenched his fists, as if to explain to Colin, and as if to tell himself: "Yes, it is really suspicious to want to come to Cardina now!

My mother had always been in good health, but since Cardina came to Papilio Castle, it has been worse than each day, until she died in the end.

I have never linked the arrival of Cardina with the death of my mother before, but now it seems that this coincidence in time is too strange!

I am afraid that Cardina is very suspicious of her mother's death! "

Colin listened to Saiken's vent silently, and suddenly felt that the scene before him was a bit familiar—

Didn't a similar plot of dog blood happen in the home of Lord Uman of Fallen Eagle City?

Could this Cardina be another Penny St. Theon?

However, there are some differences.

Penny gave birth to a child for Earl Uman, and let the illegitimate child take the place of the real aunt, ready to play a trick of occupying the magpie's nest.

But Cardina did not give birth to Franco. The Saiken Morrison in front of him was Franco's only child.

Of course, this may be because Franco has lost his fertility after being paralyzed...

Cardina couldn't do anything even if she wanted to learn from her predecessor Penny.

Colin looked at the angry Saiken, and suddenly felt fortunate for this ignorant boy. If his father could still live, it is estimated that Earl Morrison's position would not be his turn.

But they should have one thing in common-they are both pawns buried by Mr. Hood!

Penny is Mr. Coquettish's younger sister, and this Cardina probably has a close relationship with Mr. Coquettish, and it should be the remnant of Saint Theon's family.

Thinking about it this way, I am afraid that even Franco’s "suicide by poison" has some problems—

Did he really commit suicide? Still forced to commit suicide?

Thinking of this, Colin asked again: "After your father's accident, the person who discovered the situation the first time, should also be this Cardina knight?"

"Yes, she was the first to find her father..." Saiken nodded, then his face changed drastically, as if finally reacting, "Do you think my father did not commit suicide?

Poisoned by Cardina? "

Colin shrugged again and said: "It's possible. I suspect that she was sent by Mr. Hood to monitor the Morrison family, so after I deprived the Morrison family of knighthood, Cardina harbored resentment. Let Franco'kill himself by poisoning', in order to completely intensify the hatred of the Morrison family members towards me.

It's a pity that she didn't expect that Mrs. Grace was so decisive, and that she had such a lofty prestige in the Morrison family, she would forcibly persuade everyone to be loyal to me. "

Immediately, Colin glanced at Saiken again, and said: "Of course, she didn't get nothing, at least she succeeded in provoking your hatred of me."

Saiken was both ashamed and angry at this time, the expression on his face became a little savage, and he yelled viciously:

"Lord Earl, please catch her immediately, and you will be interrogated severely! I want to know how my father died?"

Colin shook his head slowly, and said, "This kind of person is strong-willed, and threatening interrogation may not be effective."

"Then what to do?" Saiken suddenly became anxious.

Colin smiled confidently and said: "I have a better way, but I need you to cooperate with me in a scene."

Saiken's eyes lit up and he immediately said, "No problem, as long as I know the truth about my father's death, I am willing to do anything!"

"Okay. Then you pretend that I didn't find this trap."

Saiken seemed to understand what Colin meant, but he still reminded:

"Master Earl, you must remember that the toxic smoke is hidden by a book called "Golden Tailed Papilio Emblem Origin" on the second-row bookshelf in the third room."

"Okay, I see." Colin smiled slightly and raised his hand to signal Saiken to continue walking inside.

Saiken stepped into the library, took Colin to the third room, and pointed to a book on the second row of bookshelves and said:

"My Lord Earl, the secrets I want to tell you about the Morrison family are hidden in this book."

"Okay, let me take a look." Colin nodded, but did not go to the book that Saiken deliberately pointed to the wrong book, but took off the "Golden Tailed Swallowtail Emblem Origin".

Seiken was taken aback for a moment, thinking that Colin hadn't remembered his words before, and blinked to warn him.

But Colin didn't seem to see Saiken's warning at all, and opened the book on his own.

puff!

A cloud of green smoke suddenly erupted from the book, and instantly enveloped Colin's entire head.
