Chapter 80: Recent Developments in the Wind of Judgment
In the wind of rulings in the royal capital, a long-lost meeting was held, and the last time Galatea needed to return to the royal capital because of a temporary emergency, it was actually about King Bradrick's entrustment to them on how to settle the matter of Princess Tiffany's marriage safely.

The meeting was still held at nine o'clock in the morning. Nefia had taken a month's leave of absence to take care of Marciola after learning that she had been admitted to Lucia's central hospital, so it was a newcomer who took her place.
The new sergeant, Caroline Berstor, a 20-year-old young woman who graduated from the military academy in Santa Galenne, was away for three months to assist Colonel Onosra Hoyles in investigating the recent black market transactions in the royal capital. Finally back today in the Wind of Judgment, because Nifia is not in the Wind of Judgment, so the location of Nifia's current office is temporarily borrowed by Caroline.
Caroline was wearing a navy blue army breasted jacket and a knee-length tight skirt, a pair of black boots, black beautiful long hair as black as a crow's feather, wearing a red beret, pink pupils were clear and bright, revealing maturity and wisdom beyond age, a white melon seed face, a tall nose, cherry lips without any lip gloss, and a slender figure, about 171. It gives a sense of maturity and stability, and compared to an innocent and lively girl like Nefia, Caroline's military temperament makes her seem more suitable for some dangerous and large-scale secret missions.
Caroline came to the office, first sorted out the information about the black market transaction in the royal capital, she has been fighting outside for a long time, and she has developed a resolute and heroic military temperament. Although she had only graduated for two years and had only been in the Winds of Judgment for two years, she had risen from a private to a sergeant major, and was considered by Hydira to be a candidate who could completely replace Nephia.
Caroline had been waiting in Lucia's harbor for nearly two months in order to catch the smuggling deal about the Demon Heart. Finally know that the royal capital of Deluo County, in the next week, there will be an auction of demon hearts.
And there are many nobles from the royal capital who participated in the auction, Dr. Guna who heard about the Extreme Cold Fairy, Alexander, the butler of Count Ambridge, Miss Herok, the daughter of the noble Count Ruyue, and Heloise of Siva's private clinic in the town of Red Rose, will all appear in the auction of the Demon Heart, which is all information that Caroline has collected for three months.
The place in Nefia's office had been cleaned up by Caroline, and now there was a black magic computer, a red-skinned notebook, and a glass bottle of water with an elegant and pleasant perfume lily in it. Near the window, the morning sun shines through the open white blinds and falls on the black desk, like a layer of broken gold.
In the same office was Lieutenant Voglia Salomones to the west, Lieutenant Mantha Greenhill to the south, Marciola to the east, and Caroline herself to the north.
"Miss Salomons, Miss Greenhill, good morning, I'm the new Sergeant Major Carolyn Berstow, and I hope the two seniors will take good care of me as a newcomer. Caroline modestly said that as a soldier, she knew that there should be a clear relationship between superiors and subordinates.
Voglia smiled at her and said, "Welcome to the new one, Caroline." ”
Mansha finished feeding her mint green pet cat with the cream cake before she said lazily, "I heard that a new person came today to replace Nifia's little lazy worm." ”
"Two seniors, I heard that today's meeting was held at nine o'clock, why hasn't anyone attended the meeting yet. Caroline asked curiously, for it was said that the wind of rulings had decreed that a meeting should be held every Friday at nine o'clock to report on the progress of the work and discuss how to deal with the task assigned to the king.
"I heard that Ms. Bailiel has something to do today, so the meeting should be delayed by half an hour. Vergaria said, pushing her red-rimmed glasses.
"It's boring to have a meeting every Friday, I don't know what we're going to say this time, we are working so hard for the king, not only do we not give us a high salary, but we also have to be hostile to the nobles, and we don't know what the purpose of our existence is. Mansha said with a frown, stroking her pet cat Ella.
"Lieutenant Greenhill, this is not your own room, you better be careful when you speak, if this is heard by Colonel Penticrose, I don't know how he will criticize you. Colonel Onosla, who suddenly appeared at the door of his office, said.
Seeing her boss coming, Caroline quickly stopped chatting, walked over, put her right hand into a fist on the left atrium, saluted, and said respectfully: "Colonel Hoyles, good morning." ”
Onosla nodded and said, "Caroline, very good, did you come back this time and I asked you to investigate any progress last time?"
"Yes, Colonel Hoyles, my three-month mission has been completed, and a lot of information has been successfully investigated. ”
Caroline said earnestly.
"Report to me in my office, and remember, be sure to keep in close contact with Lieutenant Lillian for the next week. She's supposed to be back soon, by the way, Lieutenant Greenhill, how about the vampire incident outside Lucia that you recently took over. ”
Onosra asked, looking at Mansha, who was leisurely feeding her pet cat with milk.
"Colonel Hoyles, isn't Ensign Hylocke coming back soon? he has always been in charge of the vampire case, and I am just looking for information for him. ”
Mantha almost choked on a sip of mocha coffee, but she didn't expect Onosra to come and ask her about the vampires in Lucia's small town, and she didn't take care of it at all.
"Second Lieutenant Hylock, he's been in the hospital for more than two weeks now because of his health problems, and of course you have to take full responsibility for this matter, or I'll leave this to Phoglia. Onosra obviously said helplessly, just because Mansa is the daughter of the director of the royal intelligence bureau, and she has just been in the wind of adjudication for almost three years, and without any merit, she has been promoted from sergeant major to lieutenant, and it is really incomprehensible that such a famous lady should come to work in a place with strict military discipline like the wind of adjudication.
"Colonel Hoyles, I'm sorry, I'm in charge of Colonel Redgrave's code name Immortal Bird case right now, so I can't spare time to deal with Lucia's vampire case. Phoria said apologetically.
"Okay, then Mansa you now continue to take over the Lucia vampire case, and when Maciola will be discharged from the hospital, I don't know very well, so during this time, I will have Caroline in charge of the vampire case with you. ”
Onosra said.
Mansa could only nod and say, "Understood, Colonel Hoyles, I'll do my best." ”
Onosra looked at Caroline and said, "You can report to my office, Caroline." ”
The offices of the Wind of Judgment are arranged according to the rank of the military, and the captain and above can have their own personal office, and there are a total of 8 personnel above the captain of the Wind of Judgment, except for Major General Ravandula Hansford, who has temporarily retired at home due to injury and illness, the other incumbents are Lieutenant General Comberalia Belile, Major General Cirianses Roycraft, Colonel Heidira Penticros, Colonel Hessingth Redgrave, Colonel Onosla Hoyles, and Lieutenant Colonel Cosmas Huskinson, two female majors, Lougosha Rampling and Lektiflora Pessybridge。
Ornosla's office is located in the east of the fourth floor, a spacious and bright room with a royal blue handmade wool carpet, a bright crystal art lamp hanging from the ceiling, a desk in the middle, a rectangular table made of black walnut, a high-backed chair made of cherry wood, a white magic computer on the desk, a stack of high archives, a 500ML glass cup with clear black tea, a magic mobile phone with a sky blue shell, and in addition, a bottle of perfume lily offered by water, almost every office in the wind of judgment is equipped with perfume lily, in order to purify the air, so that the indoor room can have fresh and elegant air quality.
On the left is a 1.8-meter-high bookcase made of black walnut, which contains a variety of military materials, astronomy and geography books. On the right is a black sofa and glass coffee table, next to which are pots of green potted plants with slender green leaves. The whole room gives people a sense of atmosphere and elegance, worthy of the room of Colonel Onosla, one of the two beautiful men of the Wind of Judgment.
"Caroline, I will be your boss from now on, and I will be in charge of all matters related to your work, and you will be my assistant. Onosla came to his seat, pulled out a chair and sat down, and said in a deep voice.
Behind the desk is a wide, floor-to-ceiling window that looks out into the garden's manicured oak trees and colorful tulips.
"Understood, Colonel Hoyles. Caroline nodded and said that it was a great honor to be Colonel Onosla's assistant.
"Today's meeting is going to be canceled, and now Hashingses and Cirianses are going to the Diana office in the royal capital to discuss how to deal with the matter of Princess Tiffany's marriage to the Grand Duchy, Lady Bailiel has been busy investigating Princess Friga recently, and Hydira is in charge of the affairs of the Black Rose Organization, so now I am in charge of a large part of the affairs of the Ruling Wind, and sometimes I can't be busy, so I hope you can help me well." ”
Onosla cupped his forehead and said, he had been very busy with the affairs of the ruling wind lately, and Hacinses was not here.
"Colonel Hoyles, don't worry, I will definitely do my best to relieve your worries. Caroline stood up straight and said aloud,
There is no delicate and weak temperament of a girl in her, but the bravery and perseverance of a female warrior.
"By the way, Colonel, what are we going to do with the auction in Delo County this time, because it seems that the latter has a very important relationship with the royal family and the nobility. Caroline wanted to ask Onosla's opinion.
"Delo County is the largest port city in the royal capital, and the auction must be held at the Latona Art Museum near Baron Bellinger's Bellinger estate, but it is ostensibly an art museum, but in fact it is a place with the nature of a black market, by the way, have you collected the list of guests who participated in the auction this time? Onosla said, holding her chin in her hands.
"Colonel Hoyles, I can immediately know that it is going to be held at the Latona Art Museum, and the big guests who participated in the auction this time are not small, including Miss Guna of the Extremely Cold Fairy, Miss Herok, the daughter of Earl Ruyue, Dr. Caldick of the private clinic of Siva in the town of Red Rose, Lady Sarathea, the wife of the Lord Neptune, and I heard that the Earl of Ambridge seems to be very interested in the things on this auction, and I saw that Mr. Butler in his Earl's estate has been going to the train station of Delo County frequently lately. Caroline reported truthfully what she had gathered.
Onosla nodded and said approvingly: "Caroline, you have done a good job, you are worthy of being personally recommended by Ms. Belile, your intelligence is very complete, but you said that Count Ambridge may also be interested, this matter is interesting, Count Ambridge is Princess Freya's cousin, but the relationship is very good, many things are Count Ambridge acting for her, because she is a princess, many scenes are not suitable for appearing, so will it be Princess Freya's meaning." ”
"Colonel, why do you suspect Princess Freya, I think it's unlikely, because I heard from the assistant of Dr. Caldik at the Siwa clinic that Count Ambridge's family has a daughter who has not been out of the house for many years, and she should be 16 years old this year, and it is said that she has not been able to see the sun since she was born, and she was born with heart problems, her constitution is weak, and she has been able to live until now, and she has survived completely by using the blood of a girl, so I guess this time Ambridge is in love with her daughter, and wants to auction the demon heart to save his daughter's dying life。 Caroline said.
"What do you say is the origin of the doctor in the private clinic of Siwa, why did you participate in this auction, and where did the doctor of a private clinic get so much money. Onosla asked, puzzled.
"This seems to be a private clinic with only a small house, the doctor in it is called Heloise Caldick, and another young girl is her assistant, almost no matter how complicated the disease is, they can solve it, especially when I heard that the demon heart is the kind of heart-changing surgery, Dr. Caldick is the best at it, the daughter of Count Ambridge has been treated by Dr. Caldik for many years, otherwise it is estimated that she will not live for so many years, as for the origin of this Caldik doctor, I heard that she graduated from the medical school of Galatea Magic Academy。 ”
Caroline reports on the information she has gathered.
"Very well, but why would Saratia, the Duchess of Neptune, be interested in the Demon Heart, as a member of the royal family, you should know better that this is something that the king does not allow to buy and sell freely. ”
Onosra felt unbelievable, why a prince, but the king's immediate family, would actually wade into such troubled waters.
"As far as I know, Lord Neptune himself should not know that his wife will participate in this auction, although the reason why Lady Sarathea obtained the demon heart is not very clear, but I know that Lady Sarathia's family has been going to the kingdom of Karapei a lot recently, and the specific motive is not very clear. Caroline said.
"According to what you say, Lady Sarathea is for the benefit of their family, because their family is engaged in the business of crystal ore, the price of a demon heart can reach 200,000 muse dollars, and if it is resold, it can reach a million or even higher, and recently their family's ore business has shown signs of decline, could it be that they want to use the demon heart in exchange for funds to save their family's industry. ”
Onosla guessed.
"I'll do my best to investigate this, Colonel Hoyles. Caroline said, unexpectedly, Onosla's analysis of the situation was more thorough than hers.
"Then you can go down now, and also, keep an eye on Princess Freya's recent movements for me, Madame Beliel explained to me, although she didn't tell me the specific reason, but let me investigate Princess Freya's movements carefully, remember not to alarm anyone, if there is anything strange, you must notify me as soon as possible, you know? ”
Onosla said solemnly.
"Understood, Colonel Hoyles. Caroline said earnestly, gave a military salute, and withdrew.
