That night, when Lorrain Hill hosted the Yagertylin's family, the Tissifone
family was also involved in an argument.
"Why don't you let that alchemist attack directly and clean up Calites'
fleet."
Due to the bombing of the headquarters of the Anemei Chamber of Commerce,
there were many casualties. Fortunately, Feng Nai was transferred out in
advance. If he stayed at home, the consequences would be disastrous.
But Noyce was still very dissatisfied. Tissifone’s family obviously had this
king's hole card. Why didn't you just do it directly and solve the problem
that night? You have to dream long nights.
"Master Noyce calmed down. There was a reason why he didn't do it directly
that night." Wick explained to the side.
"Although this master is arranged to assist us in the organization, Master
Zenep has his own rules of conduct. At present, Rulner cannot directly
interfere with Verga. One is that the time is not yet ripe, and the other is
that the city is still There are many other masters of Xuehua United who act
rashly, which will also arouse their resentment and resistance, because this
will violate the covenant of Xuehua United for hundreds of years."
"But now that the organization has reached this point, it is doomed that the
former covenant will be broken." Noyce dismissed it.
"We will eventually establish a new order."
"The former leader of the West Wind Nation is now overwhelmed and weak, and
the organization has just taken advantage of this to expand its strength,
unite the countries with thunder means, and create an unbreakable alliance
like steel to counter and suppress the green empire." Noyce did not agree.
Current course of action.
"I know Master Noyce has a broad mind and a wise foresight, but others are not
as rational and wise as you. It will take a while for the general public to
accept this fact and change." Edley said at this time.
"But you don't have to be too anxious. The organization has already sent news,
and in two days there will be an emissary with official documents, and we have
recently learned an unexpected good news."
At this point, Edley showed a playful smile.
"Maybe when the time comes, you can win the two without a ** sword."
------------------------------
After sending away everyone from Yagertylin's house, Lorrain Hill sat in the
study, writing letters with a pen.
There are occasional slight insect sounds outside the window, but it is much
less than in summer. On the candlestick where the five candles are burning,
the translucent wax is overflowing and condenses into teardrop-like shapes
along the wax body.
The candlelight burned quietly, and sometimes the night wind blew the curtains
and shook the orange candlelight, reflecting the girl's figure on the
bookshelf behind, stretching it very long.
The hair on the shoulders was still a little wet, exuding a faint floral
fragrance, and occasionally one or two drops of water slipped down the hair
and dripped on the skirt and the desk.
Lorraine Hill was writing to Serres in the Southern Islands, telling him the
latest situation and some things that he was required to do. After finishing
writing, she thought about it and put an Angus' suicide note in it. The
envelope is wrapped.
then rolled up the envelope and put it in the bamboo tube. After closing the
bamboo tube cover, she took a silver spoon and took out a few purple sealing
wax blocks from the box and put it in it.
Put the spoon with the wax block on the candle flame and bake it. Slowly, the
sealing wax in it began to melt, emitting a faint rosin.
Lorrain Hill used a spoon to pour the melted sealing wax on the cover of the
bamboo tube, let it fill the surface and the edges, and seal the gap between
the cover and the mouth of the tube, then took the metal stamp dedicated to
the owner of the Chamber of Commerce, and put it on. Use force and let it cool
for a while before removing it.
In the end, a beautiful lacquer night flower and fire lacquer was formed on
the seal, the color was like violet. Give this bamboo tube to the demoiselle
eagle waiting on the windowsill. This guy is stronger than before. With the
strength of Sequence 2, now it is used exclusively. To send important and
distant letters.
Tie up the bamboo tube, and then feed the greedy big guy an original gem as a
reward. It hums happily, and then flies to the distant sky along the
moonlight.
Letting go of the previous worries in her heart, Lorrain Hill was about to go
to sleep, when she heard a loud noise coming from the door of the Chamber of
Commerce in the distance.
stamped her foot a little, she was a little annoyed why her hearing was so
good, she couldn't go to sleep if she wanted to be lazy.
Listening to the pleading voice from time to time outside, Lorrain Hill
sighed, and decided to go downstairs to have a look.
Outside the gate of the heavily guarded Chamber of Commerce, there were about
seven or eight people who knelt down and begged for help.
"Please, please help us."
"The group of servants from the Nissos family are looking for us all over the
street."
"They want us to vent their anger..."
"My benevolent Miss Lacey, please save us poor people."
These people have injuries and a lot of dust and stains. They seem to have
escaped here after hiding everywhere.
The guards of the Calites house at the gate seemed a little impatient.
Although these people were pitiful, their origins were unknown. Now it is a
moment of stress and crisis, they won't let them in.
Besides, Miss Lacey is also the one they want to see. Master Lacey is now the
only backbone of Calites. He dare not interrupt Miss Lace's rest for such a
small matter.
"You should go. Although we are now opposed to the Nissos family, we will not
let you in unless..."
"Unless I give permission?"
Lorrain Hill's figure appeared at the gate, and his light voice sounded in the
night.
"Miss, yes... I'm sorry to disturb you." The guards beside them hurriedly
saluted, and replied a little panicked.
"Nothing... I'll ask these people."
Lorrain Hill looked at these people, then waved his pure white sleeves, and
asked the guards to temporarily open the iron gate, allowing these people to
come in and talk.
Several rescuers followed the girl to a brightly lit place, only to see the
eldest lady from the Calites family.
Although the pure white dress is beautiful, it is a little thin in the autumn
night~www.mtlnovel.com~ Her golden hair is shining under the fire, and the
look under the hair is as described in the rumors, peerless and dreamy, light
blue The pupils of the eyes are as transparent as crystal and as clear as the
sky.
"Now, can you talk about your experience?"
Then several guards moved in chairs and let these people sit down. Lorrain
Hill was also sitting behind a small round table on which were the teapots and
cups that the maids had just heated.
"We are the leaders of the protests to the Nissos family some time ago..." One
of them introduced himself.
...
"But after that night, Grete disappeared. We were also hunted down by the
Nissos family, and several of our companions were tortured by the Nissos
thugs."
"But after that, it is said that one of the important thugs and younger
brother of the Nissos family died, and several other people who betrayed the
Nissos family money also disappeared."
"Finton felt that this was a deliberate challenge to the dignity of the Nissos
family, so he began to send people to hunt down those of us who had
participated before."
"We believe that we did it because we have great motives."
"Although it was not our hands, I still want to say, that herd of beasts
died!" One of the voices was a little excited.
"But now that the three chambers of commerce have blocked the city gates, we
have nowhere to escape. We can only ask you or the Holliss for help."
After these people had finished explaining, they began to ask Lacie for help.
"But what good is it for me Calites to save you? And who can guarantee that
you are telling the truth instead of sneaking in to be an assassin."
Before Lorrain Hill could speak, the cold voice of the maid came from behind.
