Chapter 339 Mr. Hasta turns against Roselle
I actually went to knock on Audrey's window in the middle of the night...
I knocked for quite a long time, startling Audrey and Susie...
In the morning, Hasta had just woken up and recalled the absurd things that happened last night. He couldn't help but lower his head and cover his face.
Fortunately, when Audrey opened the window, he regained his sanity and slipped away quickly, without letting Audrey see who was idle in the middle of the night and knocked on her window.
If Audrey really saw his face, he would definitely die on the spot.
"Forget it, I won't visit Audrey today, just in case Susie recognizes me."
Susie...
Hasta thought of the key point, got up in a hurry, went to the bathroom to take a bath, and added a lot of extra fragrance.
Susie's dog nose is so powerful, he must take advantage of the time when he is sober to wash off the smell of last night.
After soaking for more than half an hour, Hasta washed again before coming out of the bathroom.
The maids waiting outside the door had curious expressions on their faces, but Hastur ignored them and walked past them.
He did not go downstairs to have breakfast immediately, but went to the study first, took out a pen and paper, and listed some precautions on the paper.
After what happened last night, Hastur had a general understanding of his current situation.
Because he had just taken the potion, he would be in a state of disorder and confusion for a short period of time, and it was easy to make a series of confusing behaviors different from the past.
When he fell into a state of confusion, his reason would be blocked, and he would not feel that there was anything wrong. Only when he regained his consciousness would he regret that he had done such a shameful thing.
Take the act of knocking on the window last night. At the moment when he regained his reason, Hastur realized that he appeared outside Audrey's window, and then he recalled the cause and effect.
It was a bit like hindsight.
If he wanted to overcome this situation, he could use the power of the Hall of Stars to suppress it by force when the chaos was about to erode.
But he could also choose to let it go. After all, this was only a negative impact in a short period of time, and it would be completely back to normal in about ten days and a half months.
Just like a spring, the more it is squeezed, the more amazing power it will burst out, so it needs to be relaxed occasionally.
Hasta quickly thought about these things while his mind was still alive.
In order to avoid irreparable behavior in the chaos during this period, Hasta deeply implanted the prohibited matters in the form of psychological suggestion.
But after all, he is not an extraordinary person of the audience path, and simple psychological suggestion may not serve as a reminder.
"Should I ask Audrey for help?"
Hasta fell into thought. With Audrey's intelligence, she would definitely use this to guess the culprit who knocked on the window last night.
Or should I try Susie?
"It seems a bit unreliable."
Hasta stayed in the study for half an hour before going downstairs to enjoy breakfast.
He glanced at the time, it was more than eight o'clock.
In order not to do anything too strange, Hasta went upstairs and locked himself in the study.
He was going to spend half a day in the study in the morning.
As time went by, the feeling of chaos did not come, which made Hasta feel a little weak in his heart, and he could only pray that no one would visit him in the morning.
At about half past nine, Butler Neil knocked on the door of the study.
"Mr. Earl, Miss Audrey is here to visit and is now in the living room downstairs."
"I'll go down now. Please ask someone to prepare some snacks and send them to the study later."
After Butler Neil left, Hasta opened the door and came out. He took a few deep breaths before he cheered up and pretended that nothing had happened and went downstairs.
Audrey smiled and said, "Mr. Hasta, I'm sorry to bother you."
"I welcome Miss Audrey anytime." Hasta said, and glanced at Susie who was following Audrey, and greeted her. Susie responded with a bark.
After a few simple words, Hasta invited Audrey to the study on the second floor to chat.
Susie also followed up. When she was going up the stairs, Susie suddenly came to Hasta's trouser leg, moved her nose slightly, and sniffed carefully several times.
Hasta looked calm, but he was a little panicked in his heart. Could Susie's dog nose really smell that the person who knocked on the window last night was him?
Fortunately, Susie didn't notice anything and returned to Audrey.
Arrived at the study and closed the door.
Sitting on the sofa, Audrey said mysteriously: "Mr. Hasta, I seem to have met a batman last night!"
She described what she saw and heard last night in detail with her imagination.
Batman?
Miss Audrey, you are very good at making associations. You even guessed that it was a batman, a fictional creature that lives in horror novels.
Hasta maintained a decent smile on his face, "I haven't encountered a bat man yet, maybe there are traces of their activities in the southern continent."
Audrey exclaimed softly, her eyes slightly widened and she said, "Mr. Hasta, are there really such creatures as bat men?"
Hasta chuckled and said, "The so-called bat man may just be a giant bat with an exaggerated appearance. In the dim light conditions at night, people can easily make mistakes and make excessive associations based on it."
Audrey thought seriously for a while, frowned and said, "I also think that figure is not like a bat man, but more like a person."
Hasta's heart skipped a beat, and he slightly moved his gaze away from Audrey, and met Susie's faint eyes that seemed to see through everything.
"If it is really a batman, it should flap its wings and fly up to the sky when it is frightened. How can it fall to the ground like a human and run into the night again?"
Audrey analyzed it seriously, and then lowered her voice and asked: "Could someone sneak into my house in the middle of the night to spy on me?"
"Would there be such a boring person?" Hasta was still very calm.
Audrey thought seriously for a moment, and felt that there would not be such a boring person. Perhaps the figure last night was just some strange creature living in the depths of the jungle, and it happened to run near her house last night.
Putting this matter aside, Audrey asked Hasta about his life experience in South Wales.
Hasta breathed a sigh of relief and began to share with Audrey what he saw and heard in South Wales.
He deliberately made everything clearer, and after talking about this topic, Miss Audrey should go back.
"Is my second brother okay?"
"Sir Alfred, he likes life in South Wilshire very much, and he said the climate here is much more pleasant than the southern continent." Hastur then told Audrey about some of Alfred's career.
Audrey listened carefully, with a sweet smile on her face. She was just worried that her second brother was unwilling to return to Backlund because he was angry with his eldest brother.
If he could find a suitable path for him in South Wilshire, she would be relieved.
After talking about these things, Audrey brought up the Roselle diary. Although she has been acquiring Roselle diaries recently, the speed of obtaining them is getting slower and slower.
Just as Hastur was about to answer, confusion suddenly appeared in his mind, which began to erode his clear mind.
He was stunned for several seconds, and subconsciously answered Audrey's soft call: "Roselle is a person with a particularly chaotic private life. The more you know him, the closer your good impression of him will be to disillusionment."
Audrey asked curiously: "Is this the latest research result of Mr. Hasta?"
"Hehe, before his rise, Rossel often mingled in aristocratic banquets, and his private life was extremely decadent. He accepted all kinds of noble ladies and mature ladies. Oh, by the way, he was also appreciated and valued by several male nobles."
Audrey blushed slightly, and looked at Hasta with some reproach. How could he say these things in front of her?
But it sounded quite interesting, and she inexplicably wanted to listen more, well, only a little bit.
Susie, who was lying at Audrey's feet, also listened carefully.
"In addition to the many things worth criticizing in his private life, he is not very good in other aspects. Standing on the shoulders of giants, he plagiarized many works that did not belong to him."
"Ah?"
Audrey exclaimed when she heard this, and even Susie followed suit.
What new discoveries did Mr. Hasta make in South Wales?
This clearly shows that he has turned from a fan to a hater of Emperor Roselle.
Audrey asked in a low voice: "Mr. Hasta, are you okay?"
Hasta smiled at Audrey, "I'm fine."
As he said that, he walked out from behind the desk, sat on the sofa side by side with Audrey, lowered his head, and reached out to touch Susie's head.
"Susie, I will give you a few books by Hermes next time. He is a master of mysticism in the field of mind, and he has also studied the dragon of mind. His works can help you better understand and learn psychology."
"Woof!"
Susie immediately became energetic. She is very interested in psychology.
Audrey, who was sitting next to Hasta, was hesitant to speak, her cheeks flushed slightly, and she also wanted to see the works left by the master of mysticism, Hermes.
That was the great man who created the ancient Hermes language. It can be said that he is the guiding light of mankind in the field of mysticism.
But she was embarrassed to admit that she was at the same level as Susie.
"If there is a chance in the future, let Hermes give you a private lesson." Hastur casually threw out another piece of heavy news.
"Woof!" Susie was delighted, her tail wagging non-stop.
Audrey was stunned, puzzled: "Mr. Hastur, is Master Hermes still alive now?"
"As a master in the field of mysticism, he is naturally a powerful extraordinary person. How could he die easily? He just changed his identity to live."
Audrey thought about it and felt right. She had a strong expectation in her heart. If such a legendary figure really came to give Susie a private lesson, she would definitely listen in.
How could she bypass her owner and teach a dog?
It should be more like letting Susie listen in on her own private lesson.
Wait, is Mr. Hastur a little different today than usual?
Audrey blinked, then narrowed her eyes and began to observe Mr. Hastur carefully today.
