Both Nora and Justin’s identities had already been exposed in front of each other, so they headed to the airport
together.
However, Justin kept wearing a black mask and moved about as King.
Justin drove while Nora sat in the passenger seat.
After a while, her cell phone suddenly rang.
This was Black Cat’s phone.
When she answered, a woman’s familiar voice came from the other end. “Black Cat, have you gone back?”
Nora: “?????”
No, really, what was the Queen doing?!
She had just called her to ask if Black Cat had returned, and now she was calling Black Cat to ask if she had
returned!
It wasn’t like she would go missing, right?
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe corners of her lips spasmed and she replied, “Yes, I’m back.”
“Oh, that’s great.”
After saying that, the Queen suddenly heaved a sigh. “I was worried that you might have been caught and detained
by Nora Smith. Her eyes are really sharp. You’d better keep your distance from King… By the way, I forgot to tell
you that King and Nora Smith are in a relationship, so you’d better not mess with them. You didn’t see how
infuriating Nora was… She actually made use of me to catch someone! I’m so mad! If she wanted me to cooperate,
couldn’t she just say so? I’m not an unreasonable person. I think she is deliberately making things difficult for me!
Of all people, why was my strongest bodyguard the murderer?”
Nora: “…”
The Queen rambled on. “Am I annoying you by saying so much?”
Nora was about to answer “Yes” when the Queen went on.
“You agree with me, right? Nora is too pretentious. The way she acts like she’s so high up in the air is as if she
doesn’t take anyone seriously… Forget it, I won’t complain about her anymore. I used to love complaining about her
the most, but I find that even complaining about her is boring these days. Alas!”
The corners of Nora’s lips spasmed. If it was that boring, why was she still talking so much?
The thought had only just formed when she suddenly heard the Queen speak again.
“Apart from making sure that you’re safe, I’m also calling because I’d like to confide in you. I’m actually a little sad.”
Nora: “?”
They weren’t that close that they could confide in each other, right?
Despite finding it a nuisance, she asked, “What are you feeling sad about?”
Nora definitely wasn’t one to utter such a sentence…
The Queen said, “Barbarian, my bodyguard… You know who he is, right? I’ve always regarded him as my younger
brother. Watching him grow up, and watching him become my strongest bodyguard made me really happy. But
unexpectedly, he turned out to be a serial killer.
“Do you know? I looked into it just now. I was thinking that if he had never killed anyone from the UK, then I’d just
turn a blind eye. But do you know how many people he has killed? “He has killed almost a hundred people… with
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmmore than a dozen of them from the UK… He’s my younger brother, but those people are also my subjects. As an
elder sister, I can cover up for my younger brother, but as a Queen, I cannot allow the murderer to go unpunished,
such that those who have died cannot even rest in peace. “The two roles, an elder sister and a Queen, keep
switching back and forth in me… Do you know? This is the first time I’m finding something a bit tricky to handle. I
don’t know what to do.
“I have dealt with ministers who betrayed me, but I never thought he would betray me too… He has never betrayed
me before. No, that’s not right. Killing my people is no different than a betrayal…”
The Queen rambled on and on, making Nora dizzy.
At last, the Queen asked, “Do you think I’m right?”
Nora replied, “… Yes, yes, you are.”
“Sigh, you understand that I’m really being put in a spot too, right? I knew you would understand. You are so much
better than Nora. She is a heartless woman. This one time, I confided in her some of my worries, but she actually
fell asleep just listening to me. Hah, does she think of my worries as a lullaby?”
Nora, who was falling asleep: “??”
“Alright, I have to go. Thank you for listening, Black Cat.”
After she finished, she hung up at once, not giving Nora a chance to interrupt her at all.
“We’ve reached the airport,” said Justin warmly as he looked at her twitching face.
