Part 1: The Daughter of Valhalla Chapter 57: The Strange Death of Redhill
"Okay, we're here."
Xiao Yin and Christo instantly appeared in front of the mansion where they had left. This seemed to be the old pope's mansion, and Christo was also taken here by the old pope two months ago.
He also made a mark when he first arrived here, so that he could use Jizi Zhenjue. After all, Xiao Yin had to ensure Kristall's personal safety as her bodyguard during this week.
"This, is this the skill of a cultivator? Mr. Xiao Yin, you are really amazing."
"Hehe, I feel a little embarrassed if you continue to praise me."
Crystal thanked Xiao Yin politely. Her body was shaking a little and her face became a little uncomfortable, but she didn't waste time and immediately turned around and entered the mansion. This time, Xiao Yin followed her in.
.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw a butler wearing a monocle walking forward quickly and said anxiously to Crystal:
"Miss, you are finally back."
It seemed as if something important had really happened. Xiao Yin noticed the rain of sweat on the butler's head and the slight tremor in his knees from running too much.
"Mr. Philip, what's going on? What's wrong with her, father?"
When Crystal teleported back just now, she had already asked Xiao Yin to lift the spell that Herrock had cast on her. Although she was still wearing a swimsuit, her appearance and hair color had returned to that of Clery.
Stowe's original appearance.
The butler named Philip next to him calmed down his breathing, and Crystal also picked up the handkerchief at the door to help him wipe the sweat on his forehead. However, just as Crystal helped
As he wiped away the sweat, a faint smell of gunpowder also came from Philip's body:
Xiao Yin also became confused, was there an explosion?
Then, as Xiao Yin expected, after thanking Crystal, Phillip hurriedly said to her:
"Miss, there was an accident at today's lecture. There was an explosion in front of the podium where you were supposed to be delivering the lecture, which affected Mr. Redhill, your adoptive father, who was delivering the lecture on your behalf."
"What--?"
Crystal exclaimed, and her face instantly turned pale. Then, a sense of dizziness spread throughout her body, causing her to fall back weakly.
"careful!"
However, Xiao Yin, who happened to be behind her, also caught her, and housekeeper Phillip who was on the side also hurriedly stepped forward to check, and then shouted to the maids behind him to come and arrange for Crystal's emergency.
"Krystal, are you okay?"
Looking at the bleak-looking Kristol in her arms, Xiao Yin also felt a little worried. She obviously couldn't bear the blow in front of her, but Xiao Yin seemed to have underestimated her willpower. Although Kristol was grief-stricken now,
But her consciousness was still awake, and she asked Phillip:
"Mr. Philip, was my father hit by the frontal impact of the explosion?"
"Yes, Miss, I just rushed back from the venue to pick you up. Now your father has entered the operating room, but his life is basically hanging on by a thread. The chance of survival is already very slim."
Just when Phillip said these words, Xiao Yin could clearly feel that Kristol in her arms was shaking again, but she also stood up slowly with Xiao Yin's help:
"Mr. Philip, help me prepare the car. I want to go to the hospital where my father is staying."
"Miss! You..."
Philip obviously meant to stop it. After all, this is a special period, and Crystal's personal safety is completely incomparable to Redfield's.
Moreover, even the old butler in front of me knew that Redfield's behavior was no different from scum.
But he obviously didn't realize how kind the girl in front of him was.
"Mr. Philip, please, he is my father. Even if he is an adoptive father, she has given me food and clothing and a family. Now I am about to lose the only father I know."
"Am I not allowed to see him one last time?"
Crystal was already crying, and she looked at Philip in front of her with tearful eyes. Philip was also very helpless. Crystal was very good at infecting the behaviors and emotions of people around her. Just the two people she moved here
Within the month, all the servants and maids in the entire mansion were extremely cheerful, and of course, there was also Philip in front of him.
They all felt that the little girl in front of them was a treasure given to them by God.
Of course, how could Philip have the heart to refuse her request.
"Don't worry, Mr. Philip, I am the bodyguard arranged by the old pope to stay with Christo. My strength is also recognized by the old pope. He should have told you so."
At this time, Xiao Yin spoke at the side, and Philip also looked at Xiao Yin in front of him. Recalling that the old pope had indeed told him, he hesitated for a while, and then said to Xiao Yin:
"Please take the lady with you. This will make us feel more at ease."
"No problem, leave it to me."
Philip finally made a compromise. Since he was someone the old pope trusted, Philip had nothing to say. Xiao Yin also nodded, then gently patted Crystal on the shoulder and said to her:
"Hurry upstairs and change some clothes. Come down when you are ready. I will wait for you at the door."
"Well...thank you, Mr. Xiao Yin."
Although Kristol was now extremely sad, she still tried her best to smile and thank Xiao Yin, and then quickly went upstairs to her room.
Similarly, after watching Crystal go upstairs, he whispered to Xiao Yin:
"Master Xiao Yin...can I call you this?"
Just when Xiao Yin wanted to take out a change of clothes from the fairy cabinet, Philip on the side took a step forward and asked Xiao Yin. Xiao Yin was a little surprised, but he still answered:
"What's the matter, Mr. Philip?"
"Sir, I don't dare to take it seriously. To you, my lord, I am just a nobody."
Seeing that he was speaking so mysteriously, Xiao Yin gradually became wary. However, Philip in front of him quickly thrust a letter into Xiao Yin's hands:
"Master Xiao Yin, this is the souvenir that the Pope asked me to give you."
Phillip's eyes were full of worry. He saw that Crystal's door had not yet been opened. He ignored the suddenness that Xiao Yin felt and continued to say to Xiao Yin:
"Please be sure to take good care of the young lady. The Pope wanted to hide the accident that led to Redhill's death from the young lady."
"What? What's going on now?"
Xiao Yin also became confused. Since she wanted to hide it from Crystal, why did she still receive a call about her father's accident? Moreover, it seemed that it was a call from an acquaintance of Crystal.
.
And Phillip's face looked ugly, and he said again:
"I have no choice. The Pope has already taken the main force of the Holy See Knights to Europe to perform a mission, and this happened less than two hours after leaving. The Pope who got the news at the first time wanted to tell Kelly
Miss Stowe concealed it, but a phone call disrupted her plan, so she asked me to come back quickly and inform you."
At this time, Xiao Yin also felt a little regretful. After all, it was because he respected Crystal that Xiao Yin did not use his true energy to eavesdrop on that phone call.
But it's useless to talk about it now.
"The Pope asked me to give this letter to you at an urgent moment. You can read it after it is out of sight of the young lady."
While Phillip was telling Xiao Yin, there was a sound of closing the door upstairs. Seeing that there was not much time left, Phillip said to him directly:
"Mr. Xiao Yin, please do not take the young lady to use spells such as space transfer. Such spells will cause great harm to the young lady's soul and body!"
"What's the meaning?"
"That's the literal meaning, because the lady is taking over the heroic spirits in the Hall of Heroes, and the spatial movement will allow the lady's body to withstand multiple transmissions at the same time, which is equivalent to one person having to bear the smile effect caused by the spatial transfer of multiple people.
, there is nothing wrong with being like a person, even if it is an ordinary person, but the lady is different."
With this said, Xiao Yin seemed to recall just now, when she teleported Crystal back to the mansion, her micro-movements and trembling that were difficult for others to notice, were they just side effects?
"Master Xiao Yin, from now on, please don't trust anyone."
At this time, Crystal also came down the stairs in casual clothes. Then, Phillip quickly closed his mouth and said to Crystal:
"Miss, I've already asked someone to park the car at the door. Do you want me to drive there for you?"
"No, I can drive. Let me take her there."
Xiao Yin also interrupted Phillip's words. At this time, Xiao Yin had already understood the meaning of Phillip's last sentence, although this cautious feeling made Xiao Yin a little uncomfortable.
However, today, more than one person told him how important the Crystal in front of him was, and he had to be cautious.
Philip smiled happily, then handed a forged British driver's license to Xiao Yin, and said to Xiao Yin:
"Then please Mr. Xiao Yin, please protect the young lady."
After saying that, Crystal quickly took Xiao Yin's hand, then thanked Phillip and said to Xiao Yin:
"Mr. Xiao Yin, I'm sorry to bother you. Let's leave quickly."
"Um."
Xiao Yin nodded, but at the same time, a trace of his consciousness drifted into the distance, and there was the beach where the Bruce Group used to play for students in the summer camp, and his goal was his sister on the beach.
That is the Lord of the Underworld, Meng Po Xiao He.
Then in less than two breaths, an unhappy voice echoed in his mind:
"...What's wrong? My brother, who left his sister on the beach in advance, do you need anything?"
Xiao Yin could also hear Xiao He's dissatisfaction, but just when he was about to make a request, Xiao He spoke out his thoughts first:
"Herok has already told me, and she is heading in your direction now."
Xiao He was silent for a while in his mind, and then said to his brother again:
"I will help you investigate whether there is a soul named Red or something in the underworld. If conditions permit, I will also get some information from him. After all, this is also related to my interests."
Xiao He sighed, and then wanted to say something to her brother, but she stopped abruptly. At this time, Xiao Yin also fastened his seat belt and started the car.
"Xiao He, you..."
"Be careful on the road."
Before Xiao Yin could finish speaking, Xiao He interrupted and said to Xiao Yin, and then she cut off the connection between the two, leaving Xiao Yin in a trance.
He also put his hands silently on the steering wheel, smiled softly, and drove away from the mansion:
Chapter completed!
