All the contract girls want to marry me

"But no matter what, this is an offense to you. I would like to apologize and make amends to you."

Shirley was so confused that she never thought that Matthew was behind this incident.

The biggest suspect she could think of was Sistini. After all, Sistini saw her handing the scalpel on the spot.

Although Sistini stepped down for Shirley at that time, the seeds of doubt had already been planted.

A series of images flashed through Shirley's mind.

Obviously, it was Sistine who told Matthew about her doubts, and then Matthew sent someone to test her.

Before this dinner, Shirley had hesitated whether to take action, but still chose to give up temporarily.

She felt the time was not yet ripe.

As Matthew said, she is from the Angel Corps, and Matthew will definitely be on strict guard against her.

Her request to make chicken soup was suspicious in itself, so it was normal for Matthew to find someone to test her.

Shirley knew there was no chance tonight, so she didn't rush into poisoning.

The only regret was that he could not take the opportunity to bring down Sistini.

Sistine is Matthew's loyal dog, and it will be difficult to get her if she can't make the head maid fall out of favor.

Shirley still didn't think that Matthew would take the initiative to suspect her. In her opinion, it must be the head maid who was causing trouble.

Anyway, although Matthew took the blame for the head maid this time, his trust in the head maid will inevitably decline.

Shirley knew very well that what she had to do now was not to think about how to poison, but how to win Matthew's trust and reduce Sistini's unshakable status in Matthew's heart.

Matthew had already apologized, and holding back would only make him angry.

That's almost it. Matthew took the initiative to come to her house to give her face. She couldn't be shameless.

Facing Matthew's clear eyes, her heart trembled slightly. Are these the eyes the devil should have?

He is obviously a filthy person, but why are his eyes as clear as the holy spring by the goddess's lake?

She doesn't understand.

Shirley didn't want to look at Matthew, and sighed faintly: "You are my contract owner, even if you doubt me, what can I say? From tomorrow on, I will never go near the kitchen, and I will practice with peace of mind to provide for you with all my strength. , you should be relieved."

"That's not what I wanted."

Shirley was so angry at Matthew that she rushed up and grabbed Matthew's collar, furious.

"Then what do you want? Do you want me to die to apologize?"

Matthew said seriously: "I can't sleep because I can't drink the chicken soup you made tonight."

Shirley was stunned. She didn't expect Matthew to make such a request. She bit her lip and said softly, "Aren't you afraid that I'll poison you?"

"If you want to harm me, there are plenty of opportunities."

Matthew said candidly: "When we were doing surgery in the laboratory that day, my back was completely undefended. If you wanted to do it, you would have succeeded."

"So you still doubt me?" Shirley's eyelashes trembled slightly, with a sense of loneliness in her tone.

"I promise this is the last time." Matthew said with a smile: "Please Miss Shirley continue to provide everyone with delicious love chicken soup in the future."

"Huh, you are the lord. Since you arranged this, I can only obey." Although she agreed, Shirley was still angry and muttered angrily: "Don't blame me for drinking to death."

Matthew knew that Shirley's anger had not subsided, but at least it was not as aggressive as before.

He slapped his chest hard and said with a smile: "It's my own fault that I poisoned myself, I admit it!"

Shirley did not continue the topic, but said softly: "Since you still believe me, of course I won't be pretentious. Do you have to drink this bowl of chicken soup tonight?"

"If I can't drink this bowl of chicken soup, I won't be able to rest in peace."

Matthew was talking serious nonsense.

Shirley looked at him for a few seconds, and finally couldn't help but laugh out loud, and the gloom on her face disappeared.She stood up and walked out the door, stopping with her right hand on the doorframe as she walked out.

She didn't look back and said in a personal voice: "You can rest here for a while, the chicken soup will be ready soon."

After saying this, Shirley left without looking back.

Matthew was a little surprised. This guy actually gave him his room?

Unexpectedly, Shirley was so frank. Matthew had a vague feeling that something was wrong, but he soon figured it out.

Shirley used this gesture to show that she had no second thoughts.

Indeed, Shirley had plenty of opportunities to kill him.

But does she have a motive?What benefits does she gain by doing this?

Staying with Matthew can get a lot of magic materials, which can break through the realm and improve the strength in a short time.

Let’s not talk about whether there is a chance to succeed in assassinating Matthew. Even if she succeeded, would she still want to escape?

The figures of Sistine and Shirley appeared in front of Matthew the Thinker, and he felt a little headache.

Can't you two guys learn from Deanna and Surante?What's the point of fighting all day long? Why not keep it simple?

Sitting in front of Shirley's desk, Matthew's eyes wandered around and finally landed on the drawer.

The drawer was locked, so it seemed like there might be a secret.

Matthew's curiosity was piqued.

Chapter 033 Do serious people keep diaries?

As a great alchemist, Matthew can not only pick locks, but also have countless tricks.

But now he didn't want to use lockpicking to open the drawer.

No matter how sophisticated the lock-picking technique is, it is impossible to leave no trace.

If Shirley discovered that he secretly pried open the drawer, the weak mutual trust that had just been established would be gone.

It would be troublesome to comfort Shirley again.

But when he saw the locked drawer in front of him, he felt a little itchy.After a second of deliberation, he decided to use magic.

Shirley is a battle priest and knows very little about magic.

As long as the movements are clean, she won't be able to tell.

There are many types of detection magic, including [Eagle Eye], [Ultimate Eagle Eye], [See Through the Earth], [Perception], etc., which enhance vision, and [Angus Eye], [Kilge], which summon the eye of investigation. Eye of Luo], [Eye of Tamaros], etc...

The vastness of the magical world is far beyond what ordinary people know. Facing mere drawers, magicians have many tricks and can even choose their own postures.

The magic chosen by Matthew is [Angus Eye].

The Eye of Angus summons a non-attributed eyeball to enter a confined space for investigation. The advantage is that it does not leave traces, but the disadvantage is that it can only be used within a short distance.

The Eye of Angus is perfect for peering into wooden chests and drawers that have no magical defenses.

In addition, Matthew also used [Psychic Drive Technique]. This magic can use mental power instead of hands to pick up items of small weight in a small area.

The operation method is similar to retrieving objects from the air.

With the help of [Angus Eye] and [Psychic Drive], Matthew opened the notebook in the drawer.

Opening the first page, Matthew discovered that it was a diary.

He hesitated for a moment, was it really okay to peek into a girl's diary?

He quickly lowered his moral bottom line and turned the first page.

Reading a girl's diary to pry into privacy is a very obscene and immoral act, but looking through evidence to investigate the truth is not.

The purpose of checking the diary was not to pry into privacy, but to understand Shirley's true thoughts.

If Shirley were a man, would he still read this diary?

meeting!of course!

That's right.This is just an investigation, but the target of the investigation happens to be his contracted girl, that's all.

The title page of the diary was slowly opened, and Matthew saw a line of beautiful handwriting.

Practice Notes.

——Shirley

April 1203, 4 in the Holy Calendar

Do serious people keep diaries?

In the world before time travel, I don’t write about it.In this world, write.

The Ediacara plane that Matthew traveled to is a world where magic civilization prevails. The development of science and technology here lags behind, and the technology tree except magic is still stuck in the era of transition from the Middle Ages to the Industrial Revolution.

In this world without mobile phones and computers, if you don't keep a diary, how can you record things?

Shirley does keep a diary.

But she won't write her heart out in a diary.

In the Demon King's territory, only a fool would record his thoughts in a notebook.

Her diary mainly records daily chores and practice experiences.It can be seen that she spends most of her time practicing.

Nearly fifteen pages of notes, 80% of which are about cultivation.

The remaining 20% ​​of content is basically trivial matters and gossip.

For Matthew, that was enough.

Although Shirley didn't write about her feelings, there are some things that cannot be hidden.This is evident by the frequency with which other people's names appear.

Matthew transformed into Edogawa Ponyboy and observed very carefully.

He soon discovered the problem. The name that appeared most in Shirley's diary was not Matthew, Diana, or even herself, but Sistine, accounting for almost half of them.

This by no means means that Shirley regards Sistine as a good sister.On the contrary, Sistine is the person Shirley hates the most.

It can be seen from the records between the lines that their relationship cannot be said to be a life-or-death relationship, at least it is incompatible.

Matthew could understand that Sistine was responsible for his safety, and Shirley was a security risk in her eyes. It would be strange if their relationship could get better.

Histini doesn't care about the identity or status of the suspect.

Diana appears, she doubts Diana; Shirley comes, she doubts Shirley.

This was her job and her responsibility, and Matthew certainly wouldn't blame the head maid who was devoted to her duties.

There have been 72 assassinations against him in the past three years, and there will be countless more in the future. He doesn't know if he has Castro's luck, but he knows he needs Sistini.

Without the dedicated work of the head maid, Matthew would have had at least three chances to end his time-travel journey early.

His relationship with Sistine was incomprehensible to others.

Matthew continued to scroll down and saw the small print on the last page.

[Matthew and Surante were close, Sistine was angry, I saw it all. 】

[Hehe, is this jealousy?female!servant!long! 】

Matthew was dumbfounded.

Is this guy Shirley not out of his mind?

Although Surante is now the head maid, his relationship with Surante is far inferior to that between him and Sistine.

If Shirley is writing about Sistine, she is quite observant.It turned out that it was written by Surante, which made him have to wonder what was in this guy's head.

Forget it, he should stay out of things between girls.

After Matthew finished reading the notebook, he dispelled the [Eye of Angus], picked up a book and started reading as if nothing had happened.

After a while, Shirley tiptoed in with a soup basin.

"I'm back! Did you secretly look through my things?"

Shirley smiled like a little fox, her cunning eyes twinkling, and she joked in a teasing tone.

Of course she knew that Matthew wouldn't be so boring, she was just joking to ease the tense atmosphere just now.

Matthew put the book on the table and said seriously: "I carefully searched every corner of your room, even your underwear."

Shirley was stunned, her face slightly red.
