Chapter 375: Sybrian Suspects Someone Has Led Him Astray
Chapter 375: Sybrian Suspects Someone Has Led Him Astray
Under the starry night sky, the music and Lanchi's speech intertwined in Helrom Commercial District Square, forming a symphony unique to this city.
Sybrian and Michelle stood amidst the bustling crowd in the spacious square.
The moment they arrived at this pedestrian plaza, Michelle noticed that her sister's usually expressive face had frozen, as if suddenly sealed by an unexpected frost, rigid and devoid of its former warmth.
The two sisters stood still while the crowd around them continued to move, as if they had become isolated islands in the river of time.
Michelle grasped Sybrian's arm, attempting to offer her comfort.
But at this moment, even the warmth of her hand couldn't ease the tremor in her sister's eyes.
She couldn't even begin to imagine what could have happened to cause such a loss of control in her normally composed sister.
Michelle only sensed her sister's abrupt change, and a vague worry filled her as she kept glancing back and forth between the flickering screen and Sybrian's cheeks.
On the shimmering screen, the interview program continued.
The male guest captured by the camera carried himself with poise, and his amiable conversation exuded a unique charm—a product of his innate rationality and calm demeanor.
"I've never considered myself a politician. If I had to describe myself, I'd say I'm forever just a headmaster. I detest war and abhor seeing people hurt needlessly. I never want to witness the day my students march onto a battlefield. My sole desire is for everyone to lead happy lives, and for my students to make the Protoss Empire a better place."
His words reverberated across the night square, causing more and more passersby to pause and look up at the screens.
The image of the young man filled the various large and small screens encircling the entire plaza.
His sincere gaze and words made it impossible to doubt the passion in his heart, and people began to contemplate whether he had the ability to turn his aspirations into reality.
"Sister Sybrian, what's wrong?"
Michelle asked anxiously, her voice laced with concern.
Although this familiar voice brought Sybrian back to reality, she struggled to regain her composure. She took a deep breath but still couldn't completely dispel the turmoil in her mind.
"That man..."
Her voice was barely above a whisper.
"...I need to find him..."
Her breath quivered, as if she wanted to stop everything before it was too late.
The next second, she looked toward the various roads that led away from the square.
The surreal feeling that could only be experienced in this "Crossroads of the World" left her momentarily disoriented, unable to pinpoint the direction of the Helrom Broadcasting Company.
"This way."
Michelle quickly pointed out the direction and started running with her sister.
Michelle was even more perplexed now. Her sister was usually level-headed and graceful, even when facing unknown new places.
But now, it was as if her sister had been struck by lightning out of the blue, causing even the elegant Sybrian to lose her composure.
The male political celebrity on the overhead screen smiled and chatted, and while his smile might have been enchanting to others, in Sybrian's eyes, it seemed to conceal a story known only to her.
"Wait, could that man be Rocky?"
Michelle heard the host on the overhead screen address the political celebrity as "Mr. Rocky McCassy."
She suddenly recalled that the man her sister wanted to find was also named Rocky.
Michelle's heart skipped a beat. She had never imagined that the man her sister had been pining for day and night held such a high position in the imperial capital of Helrom!
Their Milford family had never had such an impressive fiance candidate.
If Father found out that my sister's beloved is actually a big shot in Helrom, he would definitely be shocked too! The noble families of the Northwestern Province would definitely not dare to secretly spread those insulting rumors about our Milford family picking up a wild species anymore.
"Brother-in-law is so amazing? Was he just on the 'Helrom Evening Show', talking about his possible run for President of the Protoss Empire?"
Michelle asked, her expression filled with emotion.
"He's not my brother-in-law yet!"
Sybrian ran while glancing bitterly and anxiously at Michelle,
"He... he... he..."
Sybrian repeated the word 'he' three times, unable to describe what he was, and sounding a little out of breath.
In just two months, how could he become so abstract!!
And no matter how Sybrian thought about it, something felt wrong.
Even without her holding him back, Lanchi's naturally cautious personality wouldn't have allowed him to run wild like this in the Protoss Empire.
She couldn't understand why Lanchi seemed to have completely let go of his self-restraint!
"Sister, if he's so famous in the imperial capital of Helrom, by the time we get to Helrom Broadcasting Company, there might be fans and reporters all around waiting for him to come out, and we might not be able to see him!"
Michelle reminded her.
Usually, there would be quite a few fans waiting for such a famous guest, and the security would be extra tight. There might even be traffic control on Fourth Avenue near Helrom Broadcasting Company.
Or perhaps this kind of celebrity was not someone that members of the public could just casually meet.
"But if you have a way to make him notice you at a glance, he should be able to take the initiative to find you!"
Michelle thought for a moment and added.
Upon hearing this, Sybrian fell silent.
Her disguise had been altered by top demon craftsmen from the Ice and Snow Witch Church to create an entirely new look, in line with the identity that the Milford family had prepared for her in advance in the Protoss Empire two months ago.
Even if Lanchi had maintained the appearance he had prepared before leaving the Southern Continent—brown hair and green eyes—she could recognize him, but he wouldn't be able to recognize her.
"He probably won't be able to recognize me now."
Sybrian said softly.
"Don't tell me..."
Michelle stopped halfway through her sentence, looking at her sister's expression in surprise, and she understood.
It was like one of those stories where childhood sweethearts hadn't seen each other for many years, and now that they had grown up, they no longer remembered each other's appearance.
Even though they had been separated for many years and had grown up, they hadn't forgotten their beautiful fantasies.
Her sister had been thinking about that man day and night for over ten years, and that man had always remembered what her sister had told him—that he wanted to find her sister, and so he had gradually climbed his way up in the empire, finally reaching the most prominent position, waiting for her sister to discover him.
This was too romantic!!
"Sister, no matter what, I will make sure he becomes your brother-in-law!"
Michelle said excitedly, her usually expressionless face now filled with emotion.
Michelle swore in her heart that she would definitely help Milian Milford and Rocky McCassy, these two people who were made for each other, to be together!
