Chapter 278: Bling Bling
"I plan to add ashwagandha, dill, and sedge to the original color-changing potion... oh, and basil... well, maybe the process needs to be improved as well. I'm always worried about the things that come out of the crucible..."
Angel had received Lilith's affirmation before, and was now full of confidence. She was talking incessantly about her experimental plan, and occasionally glanced at Lilith with pride.
"Angie, when was the last time you saw Neler?" Catherine suddenly asked just as Angel was getting excited.
"Neler wasn't..." An Qi suddenly fell silent, her mouth closed so quickly that she almost bit her tongue. "It seems, it seems like it was last month?"
She really knew something - Catherine and Lilith looked at each other quickly.
"So it's in Highgarden?" Catherine breathed a sigh of relief. At least they wouldn't have enough time to run back to Mulet.
"Hmm." An Qi nodded randomly, her eyes wandering around, revealing her guilty conscience.
She really can't lie - Catherine sighed and asked patiently, "Angie, Nerle and Neva haven't reported yet. The teachers at school are very worried and are looking for them everywhere. Do you know where they might have gone?"
There was some disapproval in Anqi's eyes, but seeing Catherine's serious look, she didn't dare to say anything.
"I don't know, Catherine." She resisted Catherine's gaze and forced the corners of her mouth to rise.
There was a hint of disappointment in Catherine's eyes.
She didn't say anything, and the student union president's office suddenly became quiet and fell into a long silence.
"What color will your first hair dye be?"
Lilith suddenly brought the topic back to Angie's homework.
Someone changed the subject, and An Qi suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. Regardless of whether the other person was the person she hated the most, she immediately responded, "Pink!"
"Wow, it's the color of pink muhly grass." Lilith nodded in realization. "Good choice! Very suitable for the current season. Oh, do you know mica?"
"What?" An Qi looked confused.
"A kind of mineral, after being processed into powder, will become shiny. If you use it on your hair, imagine that your beautiful pink hair will sparkle under the light! It's like the magic is permanent on it, and you will always be the most eye-catching person in the crowd!" Lilith spared no effort to help her think of ideas.
As expected, Angel was attracted by the big picture that Lilith described. There was a longing light in her eyes. She looked at Lilith with hesitation.
"You can go find the craftsman shop run by the dwarves in the city. They have all kinds of minerals." Lilith didn't keep her in suspense and pointed out the way to her with a smile.
An Qi immediately turned around and wanted to leave, but then realized that Catherine was still there, so she quickly turned back and said, "Catherine, I, I have to do my homework first."
This reason was reasonable, and Catherine didn't know what to say. She nodded and still instructed, "If you have any news about Nerer and Neva, you can tell me or the teachers at school."
"Yeah." An Qi nodded randomly, then looked at Lilith who was sitting in the other corner, and her face regained her arrogant look. "When my potion is ready, I can give you a bottle."
"Thank you, Miss Angel. I'm looking forward to it!" Lilith stretched lazily on the chair. She was tall and slender, and this action revealed an unruly temperament, just like those wandering swordsmen who fought for love in the dramas Angel had seen, but those swordsmen were not as pretty as her...
"…but you can't dye your hair the same color as me at the same time!" Angie bit her lip, added angrily, opened the door and ran away.
"Don't be unhappy." Lilith walked lazily to the windowsill, opened the window and fed a fruit to the elf dragon that was looking at her eagerly. The dragon's tail wagged like a puppy.
"Is it obvious?" Catherine smiled bitterly - Angel, after all, chose to stand on Neller's side and started lying to her.
"You don't understand the power of love." Lilith sighed. Although she didn't agree, she didn't find it strange at all that a young girl who was just beginning to fall in love made such a choice. Some people, once they fall in love, are ready to become enemies with the world. At this time, the heroine has to step aside.
"You talk as if you understand." Catherine gave her a strange look.
Lilith choked up - who said she didn't understand! Although she had no experience, she had seen enough good things on TV in her previous life!
Lilith snorted, stuffed another fruit into the elf dragon's mouth, walked to the table, took out a piece of paper from Catherine's desk, and started writing and drawing.
"There's a change of plan, Princess." Lilith crossed out several of their previous project plans, including the height-increasing potion that she had always wanted to try.
"Why?" Catherine was a little surprised.
"I'm not saying anything, but you've just heard about Angel's research plan, right?" Lilith had an unspeakable look on her face. "I can only say that her theoretical study of Potions is a mess."
Now Catherine had to nod in agreement. She had known for a long time that Angie's mind was not focused on studying, but she still didn't expect her foundation to be so poor.
"So we won't research height-increasing potions anymore." Lilith smiled slyly - "We'll just make discoloration potions."
—Huh? Catherine didn't follow Lilith's train of thought for a moment. Did she miss class?
But this time Lilith didn't keep the secret for too long. After another half a month, there was still no news from the twins, but Angie came running to them crying.
Catherine and Lilith walked into the Rose Building, pushed aside layer after layer of onlookers, and saw An Qi in the center of the crowd. She couldn't help but let out the same exclamation as the people around her -
An Qi seemed to have been dipped into a dye vat and then fished out. Except for her hair, her whole body turned pink. At this moment, she was crying loudly in the arms of her little sister. The most horrifying thing was that even her tears were pink!
"Wow..." Lilith also squeezed into the crowd and exclaimed without giving any face. "Did you buy mica stone, Anqi? Look, this glitter is really shiny!"
Her skin was not only pink, but also shiny! It was dyed everywhere except her hair.
When Angel heard what Lilith said, she paused crying, and then cried even louder!
"Hey, don't cry." Lilith smiled and drove away the crowd, pulled her into Catherine's office again, and closed the door.
"Fading potion, it can remove the effect of the discoloration potion. Hmm... I'll charge you 200 gold coins."
Lilith opened her hands and a slender glass bottle appeared in her hands. The transparent liquid inside swayed with her movements.
"...Two hundred is two hundred!" Angel was annoyed at Lilith's random offer, but she still gritted her teeth and agreed. She reached out to take it, but Lilith dodged it nimbly.
"But other than that..." Lilith turned around, put the potion bottle in Catherine's hands, and stood with her.
"We want to know something else, Angie." Catherine tightened the bottle in her hand and added tacitly.
