Next, it’s the same as the first and second rounds.

After dinner, Maria took out the letter and read out the contents, saying that the one who could unravel the inscription would receive gold and the position of head of Ushiromiya family. Then everyone naturally asked Beato again

Li Qie had doubts about the existence of this person and started to discuss it.

But this time, unlike the previous two weeks, the balcony that had remained silent finally spoke.

"Actually, that's not a story, Beatrice really exists! I've seen her before!!"

The others in Ushiromiya were immediately shocked when they heard Totoza's words, and then, under everyone's gaze, Totoza explained everything.

That was twenty years ago. At that time, Baldo was just a child. One day, she was scolded by her tutor and mother, so she was in a bad mood and ran into the forest crying. At that time, Baldo also thought of the witch in the forest.

legend, so she thought that she could just let the witch take her away.

In this way, Baldo was walking in the forest and accidentally came to a mansion. At that time, she thought it was the witch's residence, so she ran in secretly. There, Baldo met Beatrice.

Although her attitude was a bit arrogant, it gave people a sense of innocence and incompatibility with the world. The two chatted a lot at that time. And it was at that time that the balcony knew that Beatrice had never left this place.

Her father would come here every few days and told her that there were wolves in the forest and asked Beatrice not to go out.

However, the balcony certainly knew that there were no wolves in the forest, so she very enthusiastically invited Beatrice to go out with her.

For the balcony at that time, it seemed that she had never thought about the relationship between Beatrice and her father, but now...

"Wait a minute, how old is the Beatrice you saw?"

Looking at her sister, Eu asked. After hearing Eu's question, the balcony thought for a moment.

"If you want to say it, I am definitely older than I was at that time. I should say I am about the same age as when I was in the oil painting."

"That's not right."

At this time, the eldest brother Zangjiu raised his own question.

"According to legend, my father made his fortune after he got the gold. At that time, it must have been more than forty years ago. In other words, if Beatrice was still alive at that time, she would have been at least forty or fifty years old.

!Is the Beatrice you saw so big?"

"of course not!"

This time the gallery shook his head with certainty.

"Although the Beatrice I saw at that time was indeed exactly the same as the one in the oil painting, in terms of age, she was obviously younger. Now that I think about it, she is probably around twenty years old!"

"That is to say, what I saw in the balcony at that time was probably the child born to Beatrice and her father."

At this time Liufufu also spoke.

"Because he is a child born to his lover, he cannot appear openly and openly. He can only be fostered in an annex - I didn't expect that my father is quite capable of doing this."

After this episode, the originally tense atmosphere became slightly more relaxed. At this moment, Fang Zheng silently glanced at Ushiromiya Natsumi, who was pale and silent, and narrowed his eyes. But the balcony didn't seem to notice it.

He continued.

At that time, the balcony only invited her out because she heard that Beatrice had been staying in this mansion and had never gone out to see it.

However, something happened on the way. Beatrice accidentally fell off the cliff and hit her head heavily on the ground. Although the balcony ran over to check the situation, Beatrice had already been smashed.

She lost her head, so out of fear, Balcony ran away in fear. And after that, because of fear, she did not dare to tell anyone about it...

"So... I was the one who killed Beatrice. If I had asked someone to save her at that time, if first aid measures could have been taken at that time..."

After saying this, the whole body in the balcony started to tremble, and Fang Zheng reached out and patted her shoulder gently.

"Well, it's not your fault. According to your description, Beatrice's head was directly hit and her skull was fractured. There was no way to save her. Moreover, she finally made the decision to leave the ocean.

It’s her who is in charge of the hotel, and I believe she won’t blame you. After all, it was just an accident, and she saw the world she dreamed of..."

"Thank you, Fang Zheng..."

Feeling Fangzheng's comfort, the mood in the balcony finally calmed down a bit, while others just looked at the balcony, and then Eu asked again.

"What after that?"

"I was so scared that I kept hiding in my room after I got home, for fear that my father would come and scold me, but nothing happened. It wasn't until midnight that Yuanji came to ask me what happened, and then I

I told him everything, and then Yuanji comforted me not to worry, everything would be handled by him...and then..."

"None of our brothers and sisters know about this."

Zangjiu also sighed with emotion at this time.

"It seems that Genji is indeed my father's confidant. Of course, the unexpected death of an illegitimate child is not something worth telling others."

"...That's all I know."

After saying everything, the balcony also breathed a sigh of relief. Over the years, she has been immersed in the self-blame and guilt that killed Beatrice and couldn't extricate herself. Because of this, every time she saw her daughter

When imitating the witch, Baldur would feel restless and even angry and frightened, but now...she felt that she had finally come out of this nightmare.

"Okay, Balcony has confessed her secret."

At this time, Fang Zheng raised his head and looked at Princess Xia of Ushiro Palace.

"Then is it your turn next? Ms. Xia Fei?"

"Concubine Xia?"

"Sister-in-law?"

Hearing Fang Zheng's words, everyone turned their heads in surprise and looked at the pale-faced Concubine Ushiromiya Xia Concubine. Upon hearing Fang Zheng's words, Concubine Xia jumped up as if she had been pricked by a needle and looked at Fang Zheng with fear on her face.

"what are you saying!?"

"There's no point in pretending to be stupid now."

Fang Zheng stretched out his hand and clicked on the letter on the table.

"According to the balcony, the Beatrice she saw is dead. It is impossible for a dead person to send this letter. So who sent this letter in the name of Beatrice

?I think you should know more or less. In fact, I have been observing you. Only you, after hearing the story told in the balcony, your expression gradually began to change. Obviously, you still know something inside."

"Really? Concubine Xia?!"

At this time, Zangjiu also looked at his wife in surprise, and Zhu Zhixiang also looked at his mother in surprise. Feeling the gazes of the father and daughter, Concubine Xia's expression became paler.

"I don't know, I don't know anything!!"

"Concubine Xia!"

At this time, Zangjiu also saw that something was wrong with his wife, and he immediately looked down and asked.

"What are you hiding from us?!"

"me……………"

"The other party sent this letter but I don't know what it means. If something happens to one of us, will you be responsible, Ms. Xia Fei? For example, Zhu Zhixiang?"

"…………"

Hearing Fang Zheng's words, Concubine Xia's face turned even more livid. She looked at her daughter, hesitated, and finally spoke.

"Okay, let me tell you, actually...I killed someone! That's okay!"

"What?"

"kill?"

Hearing this, everyone present was shocked, and Zhu Zhixiang was even more surprised.

"Mom...killed someone? Are you kidding? Are you like Auntie Balcony, blaming yourself for some accident? If that's the case..."

"No, it's not like that..."

As she spoke, Concubine Xia lowered her head.

"That was nineteen years ago. I never gave birth to a child at that time, and then my father found me and asked me to raise a baby..."

"baby?"

"Yes... I couldn't accept it at that time, so I just pushed the baby and the servant holding him off the cliff..."

"………………"

After hearing this, everyone fell silent, while Fang Zheng stared at Concubine Xia.

"Then what? Did you confirm their deaths? Same as the balcony?"

"How could I do such a thing? At that time, I was just confused!"

At this time, Concubine Xia also hurriedly defended herself.

"At that time, I was so angry! My father was disappointed in me and even asked me to raise a child who didn't know where he came from. How could I accept it?! So, at that time, I...I...

…”

After saying this, Ushiromiya Natsuhi also covered her face and burst into tears. Looking at the crying Natsuhi, everyone didn't know what to say for a moment, and at this time, Fangzheng's voice sounded again.

"This is really interesting."

"interesting?"

Hearing this, everyone looked at Fang Zheng in confusion.
