"Miss Hongyue, can I please have you a cup of tea?"

After being silent for a while, Kamiyu, who was the first to speak, .

"Huh!? What are you when I am? A maid in a coffee shop!? ”

Karen, who was still bored by the strange silence between the two a moment ago, found that the other party was actually saying this to herself, and while she was stunned, she expressed great indignation at Kamiyu's behavior of looking down on her so much.

"Anyway, this is your territory, right? When a guest comes and doesn't even entertain a cup of tea, this is the hospitality of the Black Knights? ”

"You're not a guest! The prince of Bunitania is the number one enemy of our Black Knights! ”

"The former prince of Bunitania." Kamiyu corrected.

"Ah~ah~~ I have been paying you for more than a year, and now I can't even get a cup of tea. It's really hot and cold~~"

"Karen." Just as the situation was about to turn into a farce, Lelouch finally spoke.

"Refusing to even serve a cup of tea will indeed make people doubt the sincerity of our Black Knights."

"But..."

"No worries at all." Lelouch is not worried about his current safety, and if Kamiyu is really going to be against him, there are obviously many excellent opportunities instead of meeting him face to face at this moment.

"I see." Now that Lelouch had spoken, Karin had to comply. Just glared at Kamiyu with a threatening gaze before leaving.

"Well, please change the tea to coffee, you don't need any expensive coffee, just instant coffee. Ah~ Also, it is better to put more than 6 sticks of sugar. ”

Kamiyu is even more aggressive. Karen didn't answer, but Kamiyu knew very well that she must be cursing viciously in her heart.

"Let the famous Imperial Prince Kamiyu El Bunitania drinking instant coffee makes people think that our Black Knights are too stingy. Kalian, go brew a cup of the best come. ”

"Yes!"

[Obeying his words like this, it looks like Luca's hope is slim! Kamiyu, who had quickly come to this conclusion in his heart, turned his head to look at Lelouch.

"Yufie.... She ..... "When Karen left, Lelouch asked hesitantly.

"Yuffie is still alive, and she is living comfortably after not being bound by identity. In the days leading up to the breakup of the EU, she also toured the entire European continent, which excited her for a long time. ”

When talking about Yufemia, Kamiyu's smile was noticeably softer than before.

In fact, Kamiyu asked Kalian to make coffee, but he also deliberately supported the other party.

Judging from the situation, Karen had no idea that Lelouch was also the prince of the Bunitanian Empire. That's why Kamiyu wants to break Karen apart.

"That's good." Lelouch breathed a sigh of relief.

Yuphimia was not shot out of his intention, and until now he has not found out who fired the gun at the time, but it is undeniable that he has failed Yuphimia's kindness, single-handedly destroyed her hard work and reputation, and even caused hundreds of thousands of lives to be lost, even if he has a chance to do it again, he will not hesitate to make the same choice. But just because you don't regret it doesn't mean you won't feel guilt....

"But you won't see her again." Kamiyu's originally gentle smile suddenly retracted, and even became serious.

"I deliberately erased the memory of Japan's special administrative zones from her mind, just so that she could live without burdens."

Having said that, the process of secession, if not the blood of the hands, caused several times the sin of the black coup d'état in District 11.

"I understand, that's fine." The news that Euphemia is alive and well is the best outcome for Lelouch.

"Let's get down to business!"

Although the two are brothers, they have rarely crossed paths since childhood, and even if they are in the mood to catch up, they have nothing in common to talk about, so after caring about Yufemia's situation, Lelouch went straight to the topic.

"Is it really to the point where Bunitania needs to borrow money from the Chinese Federation?"

[If it's true, that's good news.] Lelouch was very excited.

"The collapse of the EU has caused all the EU's national bonds and foreign exchange to become dead accounts, and the official loss of the Bunitanian Empire alone has exceeded 900 billion imperial coins, and the losses of the people have not yet been counted, but they are definitely nerve-wracking."

"The official losses of the Chinese Federation should be no less than that of Bunitania, but the model of the country's economy makes them much more resilient than Bonetania, and now that the EU has collapsed, such a great opportunity....."

Obviously having the opportunity to climb the strongest country in the world, but giving it to others in vain, Lelouch's attitude towards the eunuchs of the Chinese Federation was jealous for the first time, in addition to disdain and contempt.

"If the Chinese Federation were a sound country with clear politics..... Camillo chuckled and rejected Lelouch's hypothesis.

The unofficial losses of the Chinese Federation were definitely heavier than those of Bunitania, and the people who suffered these losses were basically the bureaucracy of the Chinese Federation. This means that the exploitation of people's wealth will become more brutal, and the Chinese Federation, which has also rotted to the roots, will be powerless to stop the actions of its officials.

Although the uprising in Afghanistan a year ago was the result of Kamiyo's manipulation behind the scenes, it was ultimately one of the manifestations of the contradictions within the Chinese Federation. Afghanistan is called autonomous, but the result of the fact is that the contradiction of the Chinese Federation has not been resolved, but has made the contradiction more acute. The unscrupulous warlords and regional peoples who have formed a group have long been impatient.....

The eunuchs are all smart people!

"Laugh out loud when you're happy. If the eunuchs weren't such smart people, you wouldn't have the opportunity you have now. ”

"You guy!" Lelouxiu, who curled the corners of his mouth slightly, suddenly stiffened.

"Brother Huang is not unable to see this state clearly, in addition to borrowing a large amount of money to alleviate domestic contradictions when the contradictions of the Chinese Federation have not yet fully surfaced, I am afraid that he is also trying to tear off the fattest piece of meat from the body of the Chinese Federation."

"The coastal port ..... the Yangtze River Basin" Lu Luxiu's heart turned sharply, and he immediately guessed the goal of Xiunaizel.

The marriage of the Son of Heaven between Bunitania and the Chinese Federation has completely become a banquet to divide the cake called the Chinese Federation.

And now Lelouch .... The problem with the Black Knights is that not only has they not yet squeezed into the edge of the table, but they are also used as an incidental snack to this carve-up feast.

There is only one way to reverse this situation.....

"Son of Heaven."

Hearing Lelouch say the word, Camillo nodded approvingly.

The vast majority of people know that the Son of Heaven of the Chinese Federation is nothing more than an ornament on the throne, but no one can deny the sacred status of the Son of Heaven in the hearts of ordinary people. The Son of Heaven is not wrong, but the wrong is the traitor who confuses the Son of Heaven. Hundreds of years of education in the Chinese Federation have made such ideas deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and the Son of Heaven has become a symbol of the authority of the Chinese Federation. If Lelouch can hold the Son of Heaven in his hands and take righteousness as the banner, the Black Knights will gain a huge advantage.

Perhaps the only thing that made Lelouch unhappy was that even if the plan was ruined, there would be no loss to Schunezel, and at best it would not take much effort.

"Now that you have a clue, I won't say more." Just as Kamiyu stood up, Karen walked in with a cup of coffee.

"Your coffee!" The opportunity is to throw the cup full of coffee in front of Camillo, and the swaying coffee spills out of the cup.

"It's a pity, it's rare for Miss Hongyue to make coffee, but it's a pity that I don't have the honor to taste it." Kamiyu spread his hands and left.

"By the way, maybe you don't have enough chips, I've got some help for you." Kamiyu, who had reached the door, suddenly stopped.

"After you arrive in Luoyang, he will naturally come to you. Rest assured, it's an acquaintance you know. ”

"What a bad guy." Kalian, who felt that she had been tricked, showed a look of disappointment in her eyes.

"Looks like we're going to stay up late tonight." Camillo's words brought him a lot of information, and Lelouch had to start preparing for the next operation.

"This guy.... Was it intentional? Staring at the coffee on the table, Lelouch had a very uncomfortable feeling.

"Forget it." It's not cool to be unhappy, but since there are ready-made ones, Lelouch doesn't want to waste them in vain.

"Wait!" When Lelouch reached for the cup, Karin snatched it first.

"What's wrong?"

"I mean, if you're going to drink it, I'll make you a drink again." Perhaps thinking that her reason was too far-fetched, Karin immediately added.

"I happen to be thirsty too!" Before she could finish speaking, Karene poured her coffee into her mouth.

"Hmm....."

Her bulging cheeks indicated that she hadn't swallowed anything, but her face was flushed and her eyes were bloodshot.

"It's rude!" Finally, Karen let out a whimper of unknown meaning and rushed out with her mouth covered.

"What a bad guy!"

Lelouch, who guessed what the reason was, smiled bitterly, and didn't know if he was talking about Kamiyu or Karen.

................

"It's been a long time since I've been here....." curled up on the soft sofa, hugging his beloved cheese-kun, let out a lazy sigh.

"I don't care where I live." Kamiyu smiled silently.

"Kamiyu-sama."

Musashi came to Kamiyu's side and whispered in his ear for a moment.

"What's wrong?" Asked in a lazy tone with a long tail note.

"Now it looks like the order of the itinerary is going to change."

"Is it...."As if he had lost interest, he buried his head in Cheese-kun's arms again.

"My royal sister is really capable...."

Cornelia crept into the Order's headquarters and was captured after a killing spree, which made Camillo sigh and become interested in the presence who had revealed the news to him.
