Chapter 21 A Terrible Wail for the Holy City of the Night Sky 4
Agnes stood aside, silently watching Sulfona and Eudora go away. The guards beside www.biquge.info pen "Fun" Pavilion lowered their heads and asked in a low voice.
"Just let them go?"
"You can't beat that girl, can we still force us to stay?" replied Agnes helplessly.
"I'm ......" The guard suddenly felt his face dark.
"Don't care, Kiri. Agnes patted the guard on the shoulder, "These two people seem to be eager to attend my concert as bait, not afraid that they won't be able to catch this big fish." ”
The guard, known as Gilly, looked at Agnes in surprise, her eyes full of confusion. In that case, just now I directly agreed to those two people, but can't they just go to the concert?
"At that time, there were many people, and I had no choice but to do it. The reason why I was able to become Chancellor of the Exchequer was because of the word of mouth of the masses. I can't throw that away because of two people. But we can invite them ...... privately," Agnes smiled, sly.
Everyone saw Agnes as a beautiful appearance, from a commoner to the Chancellor of the Exchequer. Only she knows that she is walking on thin ice now. If you are not careful, you will fall from a height and fall to pieces. At this time, Agnes was completely careless. If you lose the hearts of the people because of trivial things, and then you are pulled down, it is really a loss.
"I see!"
The guard bowed her head, her feeling that the Baron was indeed unfathomable.
"I have already sent someone to follow those two girls, the Holy City is my city, where can these two little girls who have no foundation run to? Not to mention ......"
Agnes had a predator's expression, and she licked her white teeth with her tongue, exuding a strange charm. However, her good mood was soon ruined, and a man in ordinary clothes passed by Agnes. As he walked by, the man stealthily bumped into Agnes. The next moment, Agnes had an extra note in her hand.
"The man is lost. Final location, Phyllis Street. ”
The guard noticed that his master was in a bad mood, and retreated to the side with his head down, not daring to make a sound.
"Ran away?" Agnes sneered. Sulfona played the magic song in public, which allowed Agnes to judge that the two girls were acting recklessly and had no scheming. They would never have found out about Agnes' tracking. In this way, there must be some people behind them to help them again.
"It doesn't matter, that's what makes it interesting...... If you run, the monk can't run to the temple. I don't believe you're not coming to my concert, we'll see you then. ”
――――――――――――――――――――――――――
On the other hand, Sulfona and Eudora were sitting in a living room, drinking the tea that had been brought to them. Tea is a valuable item, which shows the respect that the other party has for two people. It is only possible for two half-demons with no sense of taste to drink tea and boiled water, and the owner here frowned.
"Let's get down to business......" The owner, who had stirred up the subject with a slight stiffness, stood up, a man with blond hair like the sun. The face can be called handsome, but the body seems to be a little sickly, and it is miserable white. Only one or two candles were lit in the entire guest hall, which made the atmosphere even more eerie.
"So let's talk about who you are......"
Eudora raised an eyebrow. Originally, the two girls left the group and were about to leave their hotel. Eudora asked a lot of Sulfina about the magic song on the way, but due to the communication barrier, she only learned a rough idea. Thinking about recent events, Eudora is pessimistic that the mission may not be completed. At this moment, the broker who was looking for an inn for Sulfur and them suddenly came running mysteriously.
"Someone can help you get into the VIP seats at the concert and give you a chance to perform in public. ”
So, Sulfona and Eudora were dropped by this sentence, and followed the broker around the streets and alleys, and finally came to this guest house. During this period, the suspicious Eudora also wondered if it was a trap, but her self-confidence as a half-demon made her less afraid of human traps. However, the owner of this place did not have the intention of assassinating the two girls, he just wanted to get rid of the spies arranged by Agnes to be with the girls.
"My name is Hagrid, and we are Agnes' enemies. ”
The man uttered something surprising briefly.
"You two only came to the Holy City today, and it seems that you don't know much about the situation here. ”
"How did you know we were here today?" asked Eudora.
"Because I can accurately grasp the information of the people who are entering the city. Hagrid smiled, "Remember the broker who took you to the inn? I am in charge of all the brokers in this city, and I am their king. ”
Sulfona was silent, as if she hadn't heard the other man's words. And Eudora just thought it was a little funny, like a third-rate profession like a broker, she was even embarrassed to be king. Hagrid noticed Eudora's expression, but said nothing.
"Then tell me about the current form of the King of Brokers. Eudora said.
"Now there are many factions in the aristocracy, and everyone is tied together because of interests and blood, but there should also be conflicts over interests and marriage. However, as far as Agnes' attitude is concerned, it can be roughly divided into two factions. The high priest and some nobles were more supportive of Agnes, and the rest of the powerful nobles were opposed to Agnes. The so-called aristocracy of real power are those who hold the business in their hands. When Agnes became Chancellor of the Exchequer, she enacted many proposals that favored the commoners, which infringed on the interests of the powerful aristocracy. It's just that the high priest liked her very much, and the people had a high voice for her. Therefore, it is not easy for the real power aristocracy to do it. ”
"Wait, you mean, you're working for the nobles?" Eudora looked at Hagrid in surprise, "So you have a way to contact the nobles?"
"......," Hagrid looked deeply at Eudora, "I'm the nobleman of power. I'm Count Hagrid Phyllis. ”
"Huh?" Eudora looked at Hagrid in disbelief, "You, you're a nobleman?"
"That's right. Hagrid shrugged his shoulders and continued, "Let's get to the point. We, the powerful aristocracy, are ready to make trouble at Agnes's concert, which will greatly discredit Agnes's prestige. We needed someone who could beat her musically, and that's why we came to you. ”
"Okay, what do you want us to do?"
Eudora readily agreed.
"Eh, you ......" Hagrid wondered at Eudora's reaction, and he was worried about what to expect. Hagrid looked at Sulfona and saw that the other party was still silent.
"I can speak for her, in fact she is mute. I agreed, and we're in this group now. What do you need us to do?" Eudora patted Hagrid's shoulder without notice. Things turned out unexpectedly, which left him a little overwhelmed. Hagrid had prepared a whole bunch of reasons, but now they were all useless.
"Actually, there's nothing ......," Hagrid said with a wry smile, "that is, on the day of the concert we will take you to provoke Agnes, and then you will just play." At the level of this Miss Sulfona today, we will definitely accomplish our goal. We'll do the rest. At present, the two young ladies can stay with us first, in fact, all the hotels in the holy city are our property, and we guarantee the best service. But don't run around, Agnes knows that after you have been recruited by us, she may send an assassin to assassinate you......"
"So we just have to stay here and do nothing?" Eudora, of course, was not worried about the so-called "assassination", she grabbed Hagrid's arm, "It's boring, you can talk to us." My sister can't speak, and I'm going to suffocate to death with her. ”
Hagrid's pale face flushed slightly. He usually comes into contact with some aristocratic girls, but he has never seen such an open one. In addition, Eudora is naturally beautiful, and her graceful figure is exquisite, and her soft body leans over to make Hagrid a little overwhelmed. His usually smart brain was blank at this time, and he couldn't think of half a reason for refusal. Hagrid's usual business is mainly business, and then it is a vast network of brokers scattered in every corner of the Holy City. I don't really have much experience with women.
Eudora was talking and laughing as she talked to him about Silas. Hagrid still had some in his belly, and telling Eudora something interesting also made the girl who had been in the mountains for many years feel very novel. Time flies. Hagrid didn't know when he had eaten, and it was the middle of the day, and Eudora was still talking. Hagrid looked around and saw that the most important protagonist, Sulfona, was missing.
"Eh, where's your sister?"
"Ahh......h
"Ah...... Isn't it...... I just ......"
"My sister still has a lot of burden playing that tune, so I should go to bed. Eudora tapped Hagrid's elbow, "Don't beat my sister's idea, if she gets angry with you, I won't be able to protect you." ”
Hagrid then remembered that the other party had a head-on conflict with Ji Li, the first swordsman in the Holy City. In this regard, it seems that the force value is high, and there is nothing to worry about. That's when Eudora started a new topic. Hagrid was then dragged by Eudora to speak, and for a moment he got carried away.
At this time, Sulfura changed into a black pocket, covered her face with a black cloth, and climbed out of the window. Her slender figure melted into the night and disappeared in a flash.
