Chapter 1053 The Stars and the Sea (12)

She didn't communicate much with the man.Perhaps thinking of her being by her side, Martha only had a brief conversation with the man.

Then the man kindly invited them to stay for dinner.

Martha's hesitant eyes flicked across Li Weixi's face, and she saw Li Weixi smiling, and readily agreed: "Okay."

Some things are only suitable for doing in the middle of the night.

She also wanted to find a reason to stay, the later the better.

***
Without saying a few more words, the man left.

The happiest one was naturally Martha, who held Li Weixi's hand and talked for a long time, chirping like a bird out of a cage.

"You can stay at night too..." She took advantage of the momentum and said, "There are a lot of empty rooms here."

She used to hate the palace, and always felt that the palace was like a cage that bound her everything, making her uncomfortable no matter where she went.But now she is glad that she lives here - because there are enough excellent heritage and broad space here.

Li Weixi followed her words and nodded again.

This girl is really too smart, she likes such people.

Martha naturally dragged Li Weixi around here for another afternoon.

There are not many things in the palace, the most worth seeing are those sculptures and murals.Many other things have been removed and scattered to major museums. If you really want to know more, you can go directly to the museum.

Supper was prepared by Martha's uncle.

The palace was closed to outsiders after 05:30, the gates were closed again, and the security on both sides became stricter. The three gathered around the table, and the robot maid served local specialties.

At this time, Martha's uncle had changed into a formal suit, dressed no differently from ordinary people, and behaved like a kind elder.

Martha seems to have a good relationship with him. It can be seen that she likes this handsome and knowledgeable uncle very much. She shared many materials she recorded today with her uncle.Naturally, for every question she asked, my uncle answered it tirelessly.

Li Weixi twirled the fork in his hand, raised his eyebrows, and watched the two talk casually.

In the seemingly harmonious scene, she always felt that something was not quite right.The way that uncle looks at Martha occasionally, is it really what an elder should look like?
But obviously, he has been hiding for a long time.

Li Weixi didn't know what was going on between them, so she didn't intervene in it.But she believed in her own ability to judge—she had accumulated too much experience in these matters.

Even she became wary of the dinner she was eating now.

The man's behavior seems to be impeccable, but there are weirdness everywhere.

A lot of their conversations were information from inside the palace, so they said in front of her openly, is everyone in the palace as big-hearted as Martha?Has this society really developed to the highest ideal - communism?
Is it because their vigilance is too low, or...

The two had already clashed a bit over an issue.

The man said he would take Martha to the library to find the answer, so Martha looked at Li Weixi apologetically, "Weixie, I might have to leave for a while..."

Li Weixi waved his hand: "It's okay, I'll go back first."

Her own robot maid came and led her to the room arranged for her.
