This is the small courtyard owned by the Dai Shu family. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

It's already a great place to go in the countryside, and even compared to a villa on the outskirts of Dryden, Fitney's favourite thing is the haphazardly arranged plants, full of natural beauty – around the table where they sit, the branches of a pot of flowers stick diagonally out of the eye, marking an area of unique meaning in the line of sight.

"I heard Mr. Aubrey say that Mr. Lawler originally lived in Sherington. At this round table, Fitney's gaze swept over the plants, and finally landed outside the window, where there were more plants in the flower field.

"Yes. However, that house was sold three years ago. Carterana poured tea for the guests - she was quiet at this time, and this silence could be contagious to others, making it easy to be quiet.

It includes tranquility in the sense of the heart.

It's really an admirable trait.

Fitney slowly lifted her teacup, this time her eyes falling on Aubrey, whose gaze unconsciously fell on Carterana.

"I'm sorry, but I let you come back......" Katerana didn't seem to notice the sight, and after pouring the tea, she sat down in her place, her voice full of apologies, "I think it's a great pleasure to have your attention." ”

"No...... Nothing, just ......," Aubrey said hurriedly.

"There's no use for that, is it?" said Fitney, who didn't want to play the game of singing and harmonizing, and she wasn't as willing to buy it as Aubrey was, and when she said that, she turned her gaze to the sky outside, which proved that it was going to rain soon, "I have something to do with Mr. Lawler, and it's my duty to get him out of trouble—then, when was Mr. Lawler kidnapped?"

Fitney didn't know that there was something "strange" about what he was saying.

The word responsibility has never been used by the nobility over their own domain, or rather, there has never been any.

Carterana was slightly stunned and said, "It was about the 25th day of the Queen's Month...... My father would go to Hurrington to find a friend as usual, but he encountered robbers on the way. ”

"Did you often encounter this on the way to here?"

"With all due respect, my lord, it may not have been very often before, but ...... At this point, this kind of thing is possible anywhere. Katerana's words made Fitney slightly stunned.

It was not uncommon for nobles to be kidnapped by robbers and demanded money, but it was rare for Shavrin to be considered common and unable to fight against robbers.

"There's no way?" continued Fitney.

"No...... We don't have enough money. Carterana's hand holding the teacup trembled.

As a member of the Daishu family, Katerana may also know the former butler of Tashabol, Roned, and it is easy to learn about Tashapor's financial difficulties.

Obviously, Tashapol could not come up with the money either, as Count of Charffron, Fitney......

Thinking of this, Fitney couldn't help but want to smile bitterly, she could be regarded as the poorest nobleman in the entire Luther Kingdom.

"Do you know who those robbers are?" said Fitney, taking a sip of his tea.

Fitney didn't feel like they had a clue.

"I don't know...... But although there were many bandit groups in Shevrin, there was only one of the largest who could kidnap Mr. Lawler. Aubrey smiled wryly, "There is no way to negotiate this." ”

Fitney's eyes fell on Dick.

Dick rejected Carterana's flower tea and stood quietly to the side, nodding at the sight of Fitney's inquiring gaze.

It's not a clue.

She had used up the opportunity Eureka had given her four years earlier, and Tritan, the leader of the bandits, had a bad attitude towards her.

As for the ransom? Fitney doesn't need to ask for the exact amount.

There was a dull thunderclap in the sky - it became unusually clear in the moment of their silence, and the rain soon appeared, and the raindrops fell to the ground, mixing the dust on the ground.

Carterana seemed to know the end - her calm face was not disappointed by the two powerless men.

"By the way, when I came, I saw a man coming out of your mansion, can I know who he is?" asked Fitney, who suddenly thought of something.

Carterana's and Aubrey's faces changed slightly, and Aubrey's face turned suddenly pale, and he hung his head and did not speak. Carterana subconsciously glanced at Aubrey, and when she saw his reaction, her hand slipped weakly, bit her lip, and said, "That's my fiancé, Virgil Bazel." ”

"You...... Agreed......" Aubrey looked up sharply and lost his voice.

Caterina bowed her head slightly, flaxen hair on the side of her face covering her face—she didn't speak, she didn't seem to hear Aubrey's words.

"Why this is ......," O'brey muttered to himself.

"You know that. Katerana gripped her skirt so hard that it seemed to crumple the patterns on it.

"But......," said Aubrey, as if he felt that there was still some turning around.

"No way! Mr. Aubrey! I'm going to rest! these things are so messy!" the rain grew heavier and heavier, and in the thunder the light became so striking that Carterana stood up and said aloud, looking like she was in a downpour.

Carterana paused, realizing that she was too out of shape at this point, so she said in a trembling voice, "I'm sorry, I ......"

She turned and fled.

Aubrey stood up, but he just stood stunned and watched Katerana leave.

Fitnair watched the scene and still sat calmly in his seat.

"Miss, you ......," Dick said suddenly.

"There's no way. "We can't give anyone here what they want, even what the robbers want." ”

Because his face was ugly enough, Aubrey's face didn't feel any different because it was more ugly.

"Even you...... Is there no way?" Aubrey clenched his fist and slammed the table, and the contents of the table were crumbling under the punch.

Aubrey felt irritated, and this was the result of his inability to resolve the situation before him—and he jerked around and rushed out.

Fitney was still sitting in his original position, his position and expression had not changed in the slightest.

"Miss. Dick said.

"Wait until the rain stops. I've heard that Sturya, they're still waiting for us to go back. Fitney replied.

Hearing Fitney's answer, Dick didn't know what to say.

He seemed to want to say something else: "Miss, that sentence ......"

"Which one?"

"Responsibility. ”

"What's wrong?"

"I want to ask ......"
