THYU - Chapter 12
To Help You Understand
Fortunately, Winter, who ran away from the party, arrived at the station just before the last train departed.
He got on the first class seat and was so exhausted that he didn't even have the energy to sit down anymore. In first class, the chair could be laid down to form a bed. As he lay down, Flip, who had been dragged by him, brought him a blanket and asked.
"Little Madam, would you like a blanket?"
Winter just nodded once, as if he didn't have the energy to answer. Then Flip spread the blanket over him and walked away.
However, not long after lying down, Winter's expression became frowning. He said, pressing his hand firmly on his waist.
"Bring the medicine."
"What's wrong with you?"
When Flip asked the maid to bring all the medicine for the Little Lady, Winter answered nervously.
"Waist and stomach."
His back pain was severe and his stomach hurt to the point that he was sweating.
Flip carefully looked at the instructions on the medicine bag and looked embarrassed. Winter asked as he brought hi. a small pill with water.
"What medicine?"
"It's a painkiller."
When Flip couldn't give an accurate answer, Winter took the bag of medicine.
On the outside of the bag, it was written to take for menstrual pain, and the expected period was exactly tomorrow. Winter became irritated and crumpled the medicine bag and threw it away. Flip hurriedly ran over, picked up the medicine bag, folded it well, and put it back in the box.
"You should have another one when you get to the station."
Winter had no intention of taking medicine at all, but the pain was so intense that he wanted to rip out a piece of his body, so much so that he could not hear it.
In the end, he swallowed the pill and lay down again. It was crazy that he had to feel this pain until the medicine took effect.
After struggling for a while, the pain subsided and Winter fell asleep from exhaustion.
Flip, seeing that, thought that menstrual cramps must be really terrible and was fidgety with worry. If it were a normal Little Lady, she wouldn't have stretched out and fallen asleep on the train. Fortunately, she survived with some energy and arrived at the capital train station.
Hayel contacted various places by telegraph to find the whereabouts of Winter's body. Hayel, who had been contacting the Kanik Hotel, the Filice family, and nearby merchants, returned to Winter, who was sitting in a chair and suffering after a while.
"Well, CEO. Now the little madam...."
"Where is she?"
"That is... She is in the West."
'West? What stand?"
"Wellton Police Station police office?"
Winter's eyebrows twitched. What would she do to steal his body and be taken to the police station less than a day later?
"My wife is more of a troublemaker than I thought."
Winter muttered and got into the carriage.
***
As originally planned, Violet was scheduled to go to the Filice family. But her steps went straight to the Welton Police Station, which is in charge of security at the capital's train station.
Violet, who was reading a newspaper in the waiting room of the police station lobby, suddenly found herself snatching the newspaper and crumpling it, and her eyes wavered.
She said in disbelief.
"I was short-thinking. I didn't expect it to end up at the police station."
Violet felt strange because she was messing around with herself. Winter also found it awkward to see him sitting upright like this, reading a newspaper, etc.
"I didn't expect you to find me this quickly. I had a lot of plans."
"What are your plans after such an accident has already happened?"
"I didn't cause an accident, but I came to look for the police officer who selected strangers and checked their IDs in the early morning."
Winter clicked his tongue at her calm answer. He knew she was upright, but I didn't know she had the type of personality that couldn't tolerate this level of injustice. Violet asked Winter.
"Then why are you here?"
"I told you to wait since I have a lot of work to do."
"Can there be a lot of work? If you just leave it like this, it will take care of itself."
A Princess who grew up without knowing about this hardship. Thinking this, Winter tapped her arm.
Then, just like last time, their bodies immediately returned to their original state. Violet stumbled from the sudden pain in her lower back. Winter said, grabbing her arm and helping her sit down.
"I took medicine a little while ago. The medicine will heal soon."
"Yes."
"Are you going to leave your body nearby and run away? Once you start, how are you going to tell me to solve it?"
"Isn't it good to experience it at least once?"
"Not at all."
Winter replied tremblingly and jabbed at the door.
"Let's go. You need to lie down."
"Walt. I'm going to meet the police officer."
"I can handle it."
"I will tell them."
Violet got up and entered the glass door. Then the officers, who recognized her, all stood up from their seats.
The Metropolitan Police was a very conservative group, so even though the royal family was disbanded, most people thought they were working for the royal family.
Violet immediately spotted the officer checking her husband's ID at dawn. The officer, Perls, said he knew she had come looking for him because he remembered that he had checked the Winter Blooming ID.
As soon as their eyes met, Perls walked over with a cold sweat on his face and said.
"What brings you here, Lady Violet?"
There were so many criminals caught red-handed at the train station that the entire wall to the right of Welton West was used as a detention center.
Violet's gaze stopped inside the detention cell. There were about ten people in the detention room, but only two of them were in handcuffs. And those two were the only strangers with the same gray eyes as her husband.
Perls, who noticed the anger growing in Violet's eyes, spoke urgently.
"It's because you don't know much, but strangers are likely to do dangerous things. "
"Are those in handcuffs guilty of particularly dangerous crimes?"
"Well, that's not it....."
"Then what do you mean I don't know?
As Violet asked, Perls swallowed his saliva without realizing it. When he didn't answer, Violet continued.
"Please be fair."
"But..."
"How do you come up with a 'but' in response to fairness?"
Even though her voice was calm, it had a dignity that left the other person speechless. Violet watched him, waiting for an answer. Everyone was looking at her, but Violet didn't show the slightest fear in her expression.
After a moment of silence, Perls answered, breaking into a cold sweat.
"......I thought wrong. We will remove the handcuffs."
"Then we will wait for you to take action."
At her words, Perls hurried to the holding cell and took off the handcuffs on the gray-eyed men. Violet, without any expression, watched him come out holding the handcuffs.
As Violet greeted the officers and returned to Winter, he, who had been watching her intently, asked.
"Are you done?"
"No. I plan to go see the commissioner now."
"You're funny"
Violet was about to ask why he was stopping her, but Winter grabbed the back of her hand.
"Go later. Lay down first."
"I'm healthy."
"You like health."
"I also did ballet when I was young.'
"I guess so. You learned all kinds of Princess things."
He said sarcastically and took her out.
***
Violet was captured by Winter and brought to the Kanik Hotel. Winter forced Violet to lie down on the bed as if he had come to visit a patient who had run away.
"It doesn't hurt this much."
"I know better."
As Violet sighed, Winter placed his hand on the side of the bed looked down with a serious expression, and asked.
"So. It hasn't even started and it hurts this much?"
"Yes."
"How much more will it hurt when it starts?"
"About twice as much."
Winter's expression darkened at Violet's answer. And he muttered with a confused expression.
"It's twice as much as this."
"I'm a bit harsh."
"What is it? That's done for now. Don't you have any friends?"
"Why is that happening all of a sudden?"
"I was at a party last night and no one talked to me."
Ah..
Violet smiled faintly, knowing that Winter had always experienced the same thing that happened to her at parties. She questioned Winter as if she couldn't understand it.
"If your mother throws so many parties, how can you have no friends?"
Violet lifted her chin for a moment and looked up at Winter's face.
Not only was the Warshons ignoring Violet, but it was also because the Bloomings openly hated her, but there was a bigger reason.
Although Violet did not know the exact size of Winter's wealth, she knew that her husband had substantial economic power over the Blooming Dukes.
The fact that he did not attend any social events for the past three years was seen as a strong resentment towards his wife. And the nobles had too much to Iose by being friendly to the person Winter resented.
Violet had no intention of blaming her husband for that. It's just that, after three years, she has finally come to terms with the fact that her husband resents her.
Anyway, even if she asks him to go to a party with her in the future, citing that reason, there is no way he will listen. Violet now decided not to have any expectations from her husband. Her heart was too weak to endure any more rejection.
Violet turned away instead of answering.
"But on the way, I met a friend."
"Who."
"Dow..."
Violet, who was about to say the Duchy of Dowes, closed her mouth.
She thought it would be better not to say anything because she might leave if all her paths to divorce were blocked. Violet shook her head.
“Nо.”
"Why don't you talk?"
"When are you saying you don't even have time to talk? Now I know you're busy, so I won't complain anymore. I'm sorry for all this time."
Violet hesitated.
Now that the conversation was almost over, it was Winter's usual pattern to leave because he was busy. But instead, he sat down on the bed. And he spoke with a frown on his face, as if he was remembering something he had done earlier.
"And the next time you meet a police officer like that while you're in a different body, kick him. Because I can solve that problem."
Violet don't know how he plan to solve it, but it doesn't seem like a very legal way, so she narrowed her eyes. Then Winter said, gently lifting her chin with the tips of his fingers.
"It's my first time seeing that expression."
"What kind of expression do I have?"
"Hmm, you look a little angry."
Winter immediately released his hand and turned his head to see Violet's round eyes and slightly open lips.
"I guess I got used to your body in a while. Oh, you had to change your underwear to wear a dress?"
"Why do we even have to talk about that?"
"You have nothing to argue with. To the one who stole my body and ran away."
Violet, whose ears turned slightly red at his sly words, looked towards the door and asked.
"You're busy, right?"
"You don't have to kick me out like that, just get out."
Winter scoffed, waved his hand roughly like a child would, and left the bedroom.
Violet unconsciously hugged the blanket and sighed.
She wondered how hard it must have been for her body to carry around for that suffocatingly busy man to take the time to lay herself down here.
"Should I do some exercise..."
Violet sighed.
