Chapter 233: Strange things happen


    Led by An, Duanmuhuai came to the prison and met the girl accused of being a succubus.


    She was a girl with long blond hair, a good figure, and burgundy eyes. She looked quite gorgeous. Well... just looking at her appearance, it was indeed not difficult to charm a few men. . According to the results of previous investigations, this young lady’s name is Christine, the daughter of a businessman in Manalia. Although she is about the same age as Ann, she did not go to the magic academy because she has no magic power. He goes to an ordinary school and helps with family affairs.


    How did such a young lady get mixed up with a group of noble sons?


    ?However, when Duanmuhuai began to interrogate the other party, the answer he got surprised Duanmuhuai.


    “Those guys and I are not a couple at all. In fact, they just paid me to play another woman.”


    “Uh…what do you mean?”


    "In other words, these people all like another noble lady, but they dare not approach her, saying that she is their goddess. It happens that I look similar to her, so they paid me to be her substitute."


    ?According to the young lady, what she has to do every day is to dress up like the noble lady and then go to accompany them.


    For example, working with the other person.


    Or accompany the other person on the street.


    Or maybe accompany each other to have a meal.


    After the work is done, they pay themselves a large amount of money.


    "Actually, I have also thought about whether I should have a bit of a service spirit. After all, the other party has given me too much, but whenever I get close to them, they will push me away and tell me, ''Don''t be wishful thinking. You are just her substitute, I will not be tempted by you at all, my heart and body will always belong to her''..."


    “Can you bear this?”


    "What can''t be tolerated? Businessmen encounter a lot of strange customers. Even if their attitudes are not very good, the money they give is real money, and I have nothing to lose. As long as I follow their instructions It would be nice to play the role of that woman. I would only be spoken to a few words, but I wouldn’t be passive. Wouldn’t it be nice to get money?”


    "Well………"


    After hearing what the other party said, both Duanmuhuai and An were stunned.


    “In other words, they pay you to pretend to be another person, buy you clothes and gifts, and eat with you, but they don’t touch you?”


    “Yeah, where can I find such good customers, so I became a little greedy, thinking that if I could plan my time well, I could make more money...”


    ?Speaking of this, Christine spread her hands helplessly.


    “That’s how it turned out.”


    “These people...why do they do this?”


    “How do I know, how do I know what you men are thinking?”


    Sorry, I don’t understand what these idiots are thinking either.


    Facing Christine’s answer, Duanmu Huai was speechless. He rolled his eyes silently and looked at An beside him, who was holding his head and looking speechless.


    ?But soon, Duanmuhuai discovered a suspicious point.


    "Wait, according to what you said, they don''t care about you at all, so why are they fighting over you?"


    "I don''t know either. It''s just that I originally accompanied one of them to the dance that day, but I met the other four people at the gate. They looked at me with surprised expressions, as if I had fallen in love with someone else. , then came up to question me, and then they started fighting..."


    As she spoke, Kristen curled her lips, and Duanmuhuai also understood what she meant. To put it bluntly, in Kristen''s view, this was equivalent to a job similar to cosplay companionship. She followed the instructions of those men They asked to dress up as dolls, spend some time with them, and then get paid. In Kristen''s view, this was an obvious transactional relationship, and the other party''s attitude towards her was also quite cold, so Kristen didn''t expect it. These people will fight for themselves.


    From Kristine''s point of view, this actually makes no sense. She just regards this as a job, and they have been telling herself to recognize her identity as a substitute and not to think anything wrong about them. , but he actually got anxious first?


    What kind of mess is this?


    She really didn''t think anything wrong about them, she just wanted their money.


    ??Isn’t it a transaction that both parties are willing to do so?


    ?After interrogating Christine, Duanmuhuai and An went to question the sons of nobles, and the results...their opinions were very consistent.


    "That woman clearly took my money, but was flirting with other men. She is not the person I expected at all. She is really just a substitute. No matter how similar she is on the outside, she is ultimately different on the inside! She doesn''t have her. So kind, so innocent, so cute, so beautiful, so pure, so... in short, I must have been obsessed at that time, yes, it was all that woman''s fault!"


    Basically, they all agreed that Christine had betrayed them, and that they were obsessed with it at the time, thinking that they must have been tempted by a succubus.


    “I really can’t stand them!”


    ?Back in the room, An finally couldn''t help but complain.


    “Obviously it’s their own problem, but they ignore it completely!”


    In An''s view, these aristocratic sons are the ones who are really wicked. They keep saying that Christine betrayed them and that she is not that woman at all... But the problem is that Christine is not that aristocratic lady, no matter how she looks. How similar they are, their personalities must be different. As a result, all of these men were so filled with indignation that they thought they were victims? You took the initiative to find someone to be a substitute. They pretended to be good, which is called dedication, but in the end, you are still glass-hearted?


    "This thing is suitable for morality and law, but has nothing to do with the court of justice."


    Duanmu Huai, who had eaten melon throughout the whole process, said that he was also shocked. Are you nobles having such a good time?


    But no matter what, this matter has nothing to do with the Tribunal. It is simply an economic dispute. Those noble sons are stupid enough to cause trouble themselves, so don''t rely on others. As for the lady named Christine... Since the two parties have a purely transactional relationship and have already made an appointment, there is no big problem. At least Duanmu Huai does not think she is lying.


    ?On the contrary, the IQs of those noble children need to be improved. To be honest, Duanmu Huai felt that they were too full.


    “So, she has nothing to do with the succubus?”


    “It doesn’t matter, let it go.”


    ?Although Duanmu Huai meant to let Christine go directly, when the other person came out of prison, he was very unhappy.


    “Excuse me, can I file a compensation lawsuit against those people? After all, they actually accused me of being a succubus, and because of this, my father’s business also collapsed..."


    "Theoretically, it''s definitely no problem." As he said that, Duanmu Huai looked at An, who... shook his head helplessly.


    "To be honest, even though we gave our judgment, those nobles still refused to give up..."


    “There are a lot of things that happen to a group of mentally retarded people.”


    Duanmuhuai could understand how angry Christine was. After all, she was inexplicably accused of being a succubus, which ruined her family''s business. In modern times, if she had just filed a slander lawsuit, the other party would at least have to pay compensation. But it''s a pity that Manalia is a kingdom after all, and the power of the nobles is still very great. A merchant''s daughter like Christine really can''t do anything to them.


    but……


    Staring at Christine in front of him, Duanmuhuai tapped his fingers, and suddenly his eyes lit up.


    "By the way, you said those idiots asked you to play another woman, right? How did you play the role? Can you show me?"


    "OK."


    Although she didn’t know why Duanmuhuai made this request, Kristine nodded anyway, then she arranged her hair slightly, then coughed slightly and lowered her head.


    When Christine raised her head again, the atmosphere around her suddenly changed.


    The Christine that Duanmuhuai and An saw before was a very strong, even a bit imposing girl. But when she calmed down and lowered her eyebrows, she gave people a pitiable, very quiet, gentle, and pitiful look.


    Seeing Christine like this, An was stunned for a moment, and then she yelled.


    “Ah, I thought she looked more like someone before. Isn’t this Miss Lilina?”


    "Yes……"


    At this moment, even Christine''s voice became soft and light, like glass that could break at the touch of a touch.


    “Those people asked me to pretend to be Miss Lilina to accompany them, and I couldn’t refuse..."


    As she spoke, Christine clasped her hands on her chest, even showing a hint of embarrassment, as pure and innocent as Snow White in danger.


    “It’s really similar...”


    ??Although she had never met Duanmu Huai, An seemed to know the noble lady. She widened her eyes in surprise and looked at Christine up and down for a long time.


    "To be honest, if we met at a banquet, I would definitely think that you are sisters."


    “I am not qualified to compete with noble ladies.”


    The next moment, Christine was seen returning to her original aggressive attitude. Duanmuhuai was shocked by her sudden change of attitude. But after taking a look, it became clear that the temperaments between the two were indeed very different. No wonder An didn''t recognize them before.


    But I have to say that Christine did a very good job imitating that girl, and even expressed some subtle body expressions well. To be honest, Duanmu Huai thinks she is more suitable to be a movie actress... It''s a pity that in this generation There is no such thing as a movie.


    “Well…in that case, I have a suggestion. Do you want to work for me?”


    “For Lord Knight? What do you want me to do?”


    ??Christine’s eyes were obviously full of vigilance as she stared at Duanmu Huai, and it’s no wonder.


    “Do you know Miss Audrey?”


    "Well... I have heard some rumors about her. I heard that Miss Audrey was framed by a succubus..."


    Listening to Christine''s words, An helplessly stretched out her hand to hold her forehead and shook her head. This scandal has become a legend in the streets of Manalia... As a princess, she really has complicated emotions.


    "She was indeed framed by the succubus, but as far as she is concerned, there is actually no problem at all, so I hope you can work under her, um... to be precise, I hope you can change her to some extent. ”


    “Change her?”


    "The specific situation is very complicated, but I think you will understand it as long as you meet her."


    Yes, this is what Duanmuhuai thought of. Audrey''s biggest problem is that she "doesn''t understand people''s hearts." On the other hand, this Miss Christine may be a businessman, so she can''t talk to others. His ability to tell lies is first-rate. Now Duanmu Huai happens to need such an assistant to help her bond the relationship between everyone. Since Christine can easily deal with several noble heirs, it shows that her ability to observe words and emotions is quite strong.


    The girls around Duanmuhuai are all good children, but their personalities are too strong. Only Lorena is slightly better. The rest are basically in the stage of playing in their own way, and Duanmuhuai doesn''t have time to care about her all day long. They have problems, so finding someone to be responsible for bonding them is the best choice.


    Not only that...


    "As for your family''s business, I suggest you move to the Holy City. Perhaps you don''t know that the Holy City is currently jointly developing an area called the Junction Land. I hope you can also participate in it and report to me. "


    Of course, Duanmu Huai will not ignore the junction. Although he can get answers to important questions from Mystrina, meeting her is a bit awkward. Secondly, after all, He is a high-level person and does not know much about the situation at the lower levels. As a judge, Duanmuhuai is very clear that most chaotic activities start from the lower levels.


    If you want to obtain lower-level intelligence, businessmen are the best choice.


    ?Although he cannot guarantee the loyalty of Christine''s family, at least as long as he can protect Christine, he can be considered to control the group of businessmen to a certain extent.


    ?Duanmuhuai is currently short of manpower, and Kristine seems to be a pretty good candidate so far, and he doesn''t mind letting him try it out first.


    As long as you can use it, use it - this is the judge.


    In fact, it is easier for the inquisitor to deal with prisoners.


    “Ugh...it seems I have no room to refuse.”


    ?Christine frowned, thought for a moment, and then nodded helplessly.


    “Well, I will do as you say, Lord Knight.”
