Chapter 111 The Trust Between Us
Since Dio dared to cite Sir Joestar's words, it proved that he was not afraid of me going to confront Sir Joestar. He must have a perfect alibi last night.
And if the death of the Mackenzie family is really as the newspaper said... Dio, who is still a human being, can't create such a scene, maybe he didn't do it directly.
But did he really have nothing to do with it?
Thinking about it rationally makes it impossible... But I don't have any evidence, and I can't be sure about it.Who else has a grudge against the Mackenzie family but us?
I always feel that everything happened too suddenly and has no sense of reality.Albert MacKenzie just died?I remember that Dio seemed to threaten him before, what happened?
Although I hated Mrs. Mackenzie, I just felt dazed at the moment, and I didn't feel the refreshment of letting out a bad breath.Since the plot has completely changed, my thinking has been unable to keep up with Dio, and I have no idea what he is thinking now, and whether he is planning anything.
"Is there anything you're hiding from me, Dio."
I hesitated for a moment, but couldn't help looking at Dio and asking.
"Of course not, Jenny."
He looked me straight in the eyes without any guilt, and smiled.
"Don't always ask questions that will destroy the trust between us, this time I forgive you."
"..." Trust a ghost!Whoever trusts him will probably end up being eaten to the bone!
I resisted the urge to complain, but considering that even if I asked him, it would be impossible for me to tell me anything, I still kept my mouth shut. I must be crazy to expect Dio to be honest.
I decided to investigate for myself what happened, but before that...
I sniffed the smell on my body. It was really unbearable. I had to take a shower first.
"Since you are free, can you help me wash the clothes?"
I always feel like he's trying to figure something out.Because I didn't ask anything, I looked at Dio who was sitting on the sofa in a somewhat unhappy mood and said.
"..."
Dio, who had just picked up the book in his hand, frowned, hesitated for a moment, and then quickly replied, "Got it, you can just put it by the bathroom door."
"That's great, thank you Dio~"
I successfully ordered the future villain and savior to do housework for me, and my mood improved a lot in an instant. This is an achievement that no one has ever achieved, and it is indeed me!
So after I brought a change of clothes, I took off the dirty clothes that were contaminated with the smell of the sewer and threw them into the wooden bucket at the door of the bathroom.Then, while humming happily, she began to clean her body.
The advantage of becoming a vampire is that you no longer need to boil hot water to take a bath, but it still takes some time to wash off the sewer smell on your body.I scrubbed and washed my hair twice, and when I started to wash my body, I suddenly realized that Dio got up from the sofa and went outside the bathroom.
I thought he was here to collect the dirty laundry and didn't pay much attention.But after becoming a vampire, the ability of hearing and perception became too sharp, which made me realize that he seemed to have stopped outside the bathroom.
He didn't touch the wooden barrel, but stood at the door for a few seconds, then slowly turned his back and leaned against the wall, raised his head and took a deep breath.
?
What is he doing? ?
Dio just stood motionless against the wall, his breathing was steady, and he didn't make any movements, he seemed quite bored and had nothing to do.
I suddenly feel a little embarrassed, what's wrong with this?
Watching in the dark like a cat?Having said that, he is indeed a bit neurotic like a cat...
I couldn't help but want to tell him not to stay here, but after thinking about it carefully, he couldn't see anything, didn't do anything, and it didn't even count as harassment... I still endured it.
Living with a grown man is all about caring about a lot of things.If I lived alone, I could walk around the house in just underwear and fat times, but now it's absolutely impossible, various reasons...
After a quick shower and wrapping my wet hair in a dry towel, I stepped out of the bathroom in my bathrobe.At this moment, Dio was still leaning against the wall next to the door, and he didn't seem to be guilty at all, and he didn't seem to care that I found out that he was here all the time.
...I feel completely shameless, I have to find a reason to clean him up.
"...What are you doing?" I stared at him pointedly, and finally couldn't help asking.
"I'm imagining you," he replied very bluntly and without shame.
"..."
No, this topic cannot be discussed.
My tendency to be embarrassing for others flared up again, I decided to ignore this matter, twitched the corner of my mouth and changed the subject, "Remember to wash all my clothes, I'm going to go out."
"Where to go?"
His gaze stayed on my pale and bloodless neck, but he didn't take a step further.
"Scotland Yard. I want to know about the sudden death of the Mackenzie family."
I didn't intend to hide it, I went to the dressing table and sat down, and said while applying my base makeup.
There are too many doubts about this matter. The newspaper only described the condition of the corpse, without detailing the details.I just want to know if it was done by a vampire. Is it possible that after Alyssa completely lost her humanity, because of hatred for Albert Mackenzie who regarded her as a substitute, she directly killed the other family?
"Oh? You still suspect that it has something to do with me?" Dio raised his eyebrows.
"...Do you believe me if I say no? To tell you the truth, it is true. I want to confirm the situation."
Dio didn't seem anxious about my persistent attitude, and didn't say anything.He slowly came up behind me, untied the towel that wrapped my hair, and seemed to be serious and gentle to wipe my wet hair.
I was a little surprised, I glanced at him through the mirror, and sneered at this guy who pretended to be a dog, but since he likes to pretend, I will act with him. This future Emperor of the Night flatters and serves me like this, to a certain extent I win...!
So I handed him the camellia oil that was on the dresser.
"Please help me apply it at the end of my hair, thank you~"
"it is good."
He took the bottle, poured the camellia oil into his hands, rubbed it out, and slowly combed my hair strand by strand.What was reflected in the mirror was an impeccable and perfect young man who did everything meticulously. His slender fingertips seemed to slide across my neck intentionally or unintentionally, and then those arms full of strength suddenly slowly came from behind. embraced me.
He lowered his head and rested his forehead on my shoulder, the slightly itchy golden hair brushed my neck.
My body tensed instantly, but at the same time, I felt a weird feeling that I didn't really hate this feeling, and even faintly felt a sense of expectation that I couldn't believe.
No, how come...
...Is this the sequelae of blood sucking?I must be crazy...
"Are you wondering what all this is about, Jenny?"
"...Yes, do you want to tell me the truth?"
I was surprised that Dior would take the initiative to bring up this topic, which made me wonder if he wanted to raise some conditions with me again.But after realizing that I was interested, he shook his head and smiled as if very happy.
"No, I just want to advise you to put away your excess curiosity. Not everything needs to know the truth, and don't care about things that have nothing to do with yourself. People who are not smart enough can live the longest in ignorance. And you It's the kind of woman who is a bit smart, but not smart enough..."
Is this what I mean by warning?
I took a deep breath, knowing that he would not answer, but I continued to ask, "Do you want to say that you are involved in these things?"
"If you don't have evidence, it's best not to accuse others lightly, it's very rude."
He slowly raised his head to look in the mirror, and looked at me in the mirror.
"...Do you know who the detective you met yesterday is? He will find out all the dirty secrets hidden in your heart, and everything you want to hide will be invisible to him."
I calmly reminded, "You can no longer do things that will put you in prison. Answer me honestly, does the matter of the Mackenzie family have anything to do with you?"
"It has nothing to do with me, Jenny."
As if he had been greatly satisfied, his smile was extremely evil.
"I won't make the same mistake again, I didn't do anything, even the detective, he has no evidence to accuse me... I just told your bad brain friend, who Duke Joan is just the father-in-law of Albert Mackenzie."
"?!"
I couldn't help but gasped, I broke free from Dio's arm, turned my head and looked at him in disbelief.
"……Is what you said true?"
Duke Joan is Albert's father-in-law?I was stunned for a moment, and then realized that Alyssa seemed to have mentioned "inadvertently" that the name of her female friend Meris before she got married was Merris Hoan...
I actually forgot such an important thing!
"Of course it's true, I didn't lie to them."
Dio straightened up, looked at me with great pleasure and said, "I'm just giving them some information, it's not me who decides what to do."
"But it doesn't make sense..."
I moved my lips, "Even if they decided to retaliate, they would not be able to create such a scene... Wait, could it be..."
Combined with the fact that Alyssa may be hiding in the East End, if she does the same thing as Dior did in the original book, she will also develop subordinates and expand her power. Those women who are occupied by hatred may choose to put their souls in order to get the power of revenge. Betrayed to the devil, actively chose to join the ranks of non-human beings, thus creating such a scene.
This era is so painful, it is better to choose to oppose it, they made such a choice.
I suddenly realized that all the links were calculated step by step.Dio took advantage of the out-of-control Alyssa to get rid of all his enemies, but all the evidence can't point to him, even Holmes can't catch him, and his hands are still clean.
This impulsive guy who had difficulty controlling his emotions had grown to this point in a short period of time.He became smarter and more forbearing. The impulsive appearance was just acting. After the layout was over, he finally completed the performance!
Pandora's box has never been closed.
"Be happy, this is a good thing, isn't it? Those women have achieved their wishes, and we have also achieved our revenge on our common enemy. It is a win-win outcome for both parties."
Dior said very happily, "Next, they who have extraordinary power may succeed in the revolution and fight against this unjust era. This is something you will never be able to do in those house-playing games. Jenny, admit it, only with power, to get to the top.”
"...do you know what this will lead to?"
I looked at him in disbelief, "If they choose to be monsters, they will eat other people's lives!"
"What's the problem? You seem to be mistaken, Jenny, why do you always have to think from the standpoint of a human being? Do you mind how much bread you need to eat to survive? Oh yes, your friend also It's good to think that they have decided to turn all the men who hurt them into food."
The way Dio is now makes me almost completely overlap with him in the original book. He doesn't care about anyone, he only cares about whether he can use others to achieve his own goals.
I stared at him for a long time, and suddenly realized that my accusations and accusations against him were meaningless. He poured himself a glass of wine with great satisfaction, and slightly raised the glass in his hand to me.
"Isn't today a good day to celebrate? Would you like some of my blood? I can feed you."
"..."
While he didn't seem to do anything, he took every opportunity Mrs. MacKenzie had wanted us dead, and Dior gave it all back to her, seemingly justifiably so.With the help of others, this revenge was carried out.
He got involved with innocent people, but he said that he didn't instigate it, it was the women's own choice.Even if he knew very well that those desperate and angry women would definitely make this choice.
After a moment of silence, I stared up at him and asked, "Do you want to be one of those monsters?"
"..." Dio suddenly put away his smile, he looked at me solemnly, and then smiled again.
"How is it possible, that will be killed by Qiao Qiao and the others, do I look like that kind of lunatic?"
