Chapter 67 Marquis Carols

Hearing the maid's reminder, Shi Zishu glanced at Feng Yan, handed the diary in his hand to him, and said, "Captain, take the diary and check it first to see if there are any clues in it. Remember to be careful and don't approach the underground rashly. It should be very dangerous inside, and I don't know what arrangements have been made."

Feng Yan took the diary, frowned and asked, "Are you really going to attend the party?"

"At least show up, and then find a reason to leave. If I disappear, the Knights will definitely search the castle extensively, which will make it more inconvenient to move, and it may also alert the enemy."

Shi Zishu looked out the window with a slightly cold gaze: "It's a good opportunity to see what the count is up to. Also, this task has inexplicably turned into a mixed world. We still have two teammates who haven't shown up yet. We may meet them at the banquet."

"...Okay." Feng Yan nodded and put away the diary. He was silent for a moment, and then asked casually with some ambiguous emotions, "Do you want them to help you change your clothes?"

Shi Zishu was silent for a while, and then replied, "I can't do it myself."

"……I--"

"Just let them come, no problem."

Shi Zishu said this in a decisive tone, and opened the door to let the two maids in. Feng Yan stared at him silently for a while, then turned around and walked out, vaguely showing some reluctance.

He always feel that Feng Yan seems to have become a lot more proactive... Could it be because of the pendant he gave him last time that makes Feng Yan feel that he is no longer so resistant to him?

Shi Zishu sighed silently, feeling somewhat complicated, and followed the two maids to change into the dress to be worn for the dinner.

Just as he expected, the dinner was basically equivalent to a wedding banquet, and the dress to be worn was very complicated. If he was not worried about exposing his identity, more maids should have helped him dress up. But now there were only two personal maids, causing them, who were usually capable, to be a little flustered.

Because he had been tossed around once before, Shi Zishu had no feelings this time and let them dress him up. He looked at the two maids busying around, deliberately showing a hint of curiosity and chatting with them.

"I really want to know what kind of person the original Miss Claire was?"

"Ms. Claire..."

The two maids carefully adjusted the wrinkles on his skirts and tilted their heads to react for a while. They were all from commoner families and had younger siblings, so they got along well with the young boy Lyle, who was also from a commoner family, and usually answered his questions.

"She is a very lovely lady." One of the maids said with a smile, "She has been gentle and kind since she was a child. She is very friendly to us maids. We all like her very much, but..."

When she said this, she looked hesitant, and another maid took over the conversation, also with a cautious expression.

"Although the young lady has been very kind to us in the past two years, her personality has changed a lot. She has become bolder and more lively. She used to be very conservative about matters between men and women. Even when the knights kissed her hand, she would blush for a long time. But later..."

"Although there's nothing wrong with her being so open, we've been with her since she was a child, and we're all very uncomfortable with it. And something like running away from marriage... Based on her previous personality, she would never do it."
