The gate of the old school building is usually locked, and there are two keys to the gate. One had recently been given to Senior George to investigate the giant knight statue, and the other was in Lane's possession.

But now, the doors of the old school building have been opened. Passing by the Tech Building, George also greeted Riene, who was simply not in the old school building. With George's prudence, it was impossible to forget to lock the door. In other words, someone pried open the door of the old school building and entered it.

Come to think of it, only a certain bear child from the "Intelligence Bureau" can do this kind of thing.

As Lane thought, the bear child was indeed in the old school building, in front of the huge knight statue on the seventh basement floor.

"Miriam."

"Ah, Riene, you're here too." The bear child who was called by his name turned around, still looking innocent.

"What do you mean, 'You're here too'?" Li En clenched his right fist, twisted into the void, and made the gesture of "Bear Child Correction Drill", "What are you doing here by skipping class?" ”

"Ah, I forgot." Miriam immediately put her head in her hands and covered her temples.

"It's really a matter of forgetting it, for the sake of you not causing trouble lately, I'll let you go today."

"Hey~" Miriam immediately came to his senses.

"Is there anything you care about?" Riene walked over to Miriam and joined her in looking at the huge statue of the knight that didn't move, "Something to do with the Silver Arm?" ”

"Well, it's not clear, but it might be a bit related. It feels like the place where the source is connected. ”

"The source is connected," Li En's eyes lit up.

"I don't know what to say, anyway, if you don't 'connect' and look at it, you won't understand, right?"

Connected - Dawn remembered the word that appeared twice.

Miriam and "Silver Arm" are both creations of "Black Workshop", and the land where the Erebonian Empire is located is called "Black Land", and the same name is clearly related. Based on the few words between Vita and Osborne, it can also be inferred that "Black Workshop" holds the key to "Flame" in "Project Illusory Flame". Therefore, it is not impossible that the android and puppet weapons created in "Black Workshop" - the "Rabbit" series (tentatively named by Rien) are related to the Rider system and even Arcana.

With this in mind, Lane tilted his head and looked at Miriam from top to bottom.

The latter tilted his head and wondered, "Lane? ”

Hawkers,Looking at the appearance of this girl,It's estimated that she's just an experiment or a chess piece.,It's unlikely that she knows any useful information.。

"It's nothing, I just think this thing is a bit different from "Silver Arm", and it doesn't match your style very well."

"Uh-huh~ Although this big guy looks very good, I still prefer my little silver." Miriam nodded again and again, "However, it's worthy of the uncle's request for me, I didn't expect such a powerful thing to be here." ”

"Prime Minister Osborne? He's eyeing this, too. Lane wasn't surprised. From Clea five years ago to Miriam now, her father has always cared about this place.

"To be precise, it's the old school building, and he told me to report to him if anything happens, it seems to be confidential information."

Li En sighed helplessly: "You, you are always so open-mouthed, beware of being punished by the Intelligence Bureau." ”

"No, after this big guy appears, my mission is complete."

"By the way, you transferred to our class just to investigate the old school building."

"M~ This is just one of the reasons. There could have been a more important task, but now it is not needed. "Miriam is a good thing, she doesn't lie, she tells the truth, she says what she can, and she can't say it.

"Let's put aside the task for now, let's go back first, the prime minister's public speech is about to begin."

"By the way, there's something else to it, I almost forgot." Long before the school made the announcement, Miriam had gotten the relevant information from Clea.

"Let's go, let's make an appointment to listen to the live broadcast in the classroom together."

"Ah, it's better to go there."

Before leaving, Rien looked back at the huge knight's statue that remained on one knee, and there was a glint in his eyes, as sharp as a knife.

"Valima, bear with me a little longer, and soon it's time for us to appear."

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

On their way back to class, the two bumped into Patrick.

Lane said, "Hey, you're still there?" Two days ago, I heard from Mr. Serestan that your hometown wants you to go back. ”

Because of the recent turmoil in the empire, many aristocratic students have been called back to their hometowns, which is why Li En has this question.

"At this time, it will damage the reputation of "The Four Famous Families" to run back to my hometown with a cheeky face, how could I do this!" Patrick said proudly, "I just don't have to go to class, so I rest in the dormitory, don't underestimate me too much." ”

"I'm sorry." Li En laughed, "What, you Class I also have to listen to Prime Minister Osborne's speech?" ”

"Although it was a nuisance man, because it was a national event, I was going to listen to it with the rest of the people who stayed in the academy."

"That's right."

"In this way, your classmates are not seniors, and their interests are quite unique. Even if it's very close to here, I actually went to the imperial capital. ”

"Huh? You mean," Miriam didn't react.

"It's the senior named Chloe, I met him in front of the station this morning, don't you know? He said that he wanted to visit and listen to the speech of "Iron Blood". ”

Miriam's eyes narrowed at the words, and Patrick's words tightened a loose string in her heart again.

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

At 11:50, all the members of Class VII except Chloe arrived.

"It's almost noon, and Prime Minister Osborne's statement is about to begin."

"What will the Prime Minister say about the crisis of Crossbell's independence and the defeat of the Imperial Army?"

It is no exaggeration to say that the next speech will shape the course of Erebonia. Then we'll leave it to the live broadcast reporter at the Imperial Capital de l'Équells Square. ”

The voice switched, and the neutral and peaceful male voice became a sweet and light female voice.

"Yes, this is Misty in the Imperial Capital of Heimdahl Les Square."

Hearing this, Lane snorted softly, and Emma's delicate body shook violently, and her face changed suddenly; "This, this voice is"

"Oh, isn't this Miss Missy?" Judging by Macchias' reaction, he should be a loyal listener of "Starry Night".

"Oh, the one from Starry Night." Alyssa has also heard of this very popular show.

"Hmm~ The sound is still so good." Elliot unconsciously closed his eyes, his expression intoxicated.

Emma's reaction was even more shocked: "Do you know who this speaker is?" ”

"yes." Macchias nodded, "Host of Miss Missy's radio show Starry Night." ”

"It's a bespectacled older sister, and sometimes you see her in Tolista." Elliot added, "Because the Broadcasting Bureau is here, it's a matter of course. ”

"Do you know her?" Alyssa asked.

Emma didn't answer, just looked at Riene.

"That's her." Rien said in a deep voice, "I try to reveal information to you every once in a while, but I fail. ”

Emma's face changed, confused, relieved, uneasy, and finally turned into two words: "Sister"

As if in response to her call, Misty's voice was heard on the radio again:

"Ah, the Prime Minister's speech seems to be about to begin. Listeners, listen. (To be continued.) )
