Chapter 371: Learned

Belch...... This so-called bastard refers to his mother's husband, his own father, right?

Nick wiped a cold sweat. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

After scolding, Madame Lefebble seemed to realize the problem, coughed a little embarrassedly, and bowed her head to drink the soup.

After swallowing a mouthful of soup, Madame Lefebble was still not at ease, and asked Nick, "Son, you really don't need your mother to do something for you?" ”

"Nothing. It's true. It's just that...... I'll probably have to leave the house for a while every once in a while. Don't worry, I'll tell you before I go. Nick said embarrassed.

But any normal person can hear that there is something wrong with him doing this.

It's not like a symptom of getting sick.

Nick's mother only paused for a moment, and then smiled softly as if she hadn't heard anything, "That's fine." With your mother to help you carry it, no one will want to find out where you are. Just go for it. Just stay safe. ”

Mother, is this still going to cover for him?

Of course, it's better that way. His whereabouts will be more secretive. But isn't that tantamount to dragging your mother into the water?

Nick was overwhelmed with guilt: "No need. If...... If someone does come to me, just say you don't know. I can handle it myself. ”

"How can this work? You don't care, just take care of yourself. Mrs. Lefebble clenched her fork and said categorically.

"Thank you, Mother." Nick said heartily.

Madame Lefebble smiled, and reached out to rub Nick's cheek, and her doting heart overflowed.

Then the mother and son didn't talk much, and finished the meal calmly. Just as the servants came up to clean up the dishes, Nick remembered, "By the way, Mother, have you had any news about the Luo family recently?" ”

The mother put down the napkin that wiped her mouth. "Nope. What's wrong? ”

"I found I couldn't reach her. You said that the communication network has covered the whole empire and the whole federation, right? It is said that she went to the empire, even if the route she took may be relatively remote, she should have received the news. ”

Suddenly, Nick shut up.

It occurred to him that his mother wouldn't let him have contact with Roy.

Mrs. Lefebble smiled. "I really haven't paid much attention to the Luo family lately. In this way," she called the housekeeper, "to check on the recent movements of the Luo family." ”

"No hassle. I just asked casually. Nick said timidly.

Mrs. Lefebble waved her hand. Now don't say that Nick just wants to know where Roy is, even if he wants to take the stars down to cook, Madame Lefebble will pour oil for Nick herself.

The steward took the order and retreated. Nick and his mother didn't think they would get the news anytime soon, so the mother and son sat in the dining room and chatted for a while, and then they were ready to take a lunch break.

As he left, Nick beckoned to the little boy, leading the boy with one hand and his mother with the other, as he walked down the bright hallway.

But before he had taken two steps, the butler trotted over in a slightly panicked manner. "Madame......"

"What's wrong?" Madame Lefebler was a little upset when she saw his eyes glancing over to Nick, "There's nothing to hide from the young master. Let's just say it! ”

"Yes." The housekeeper bowed and reported to the mother and son of Lefeble, "There is a problem with the edible flowers that the Luo family sold to the imperial family to make pastries for engagement ceremonies, and the fiancΓ©e of the imperial crown prince, Lucresa?" Ainingdo was poisoned and hospitalized. Now the empire is working with the Federation to arrest the Luo family, but the main members of the Luo family, that is, Roy's father and daughter, have no news. ”

Nick and his mother looked at each other, and both saw shock in each other's eyes.

What the?!

"Why the hell is poisoned?!" Mrs. Leffebler hastened to ask.

The housekeeper shook his head: "It's not clear yet, it is said that the pesticide residues exceed the standard." ”

"! The Luo family has been in the edible flower business for more than ten years, when did they hear that they use pesticides! Madame Lefebble rebuked, "So where is the Luo family now?" No news at all? ”

"Officially, no." At this point, the butler glanced at Nick again, but still stubbornly said, "There was a fleet that went to pursue them on the trade route, but no one was caught, and the fleet was sunk by them several ships, including the flagship. ”

This is information that only people with ties to the military, such as the Lefebler family, can quickly learn.

"They exchanged fire?!" Mrs. Lefebble was surprised. "When's the thing!"

"Just yesterday. It should have been a firefight. ”

"The Luo family is very powerful. Wait a minute. Mrs. Lefebble suddenly realized the problem, "Send a fleet?" They are just a suspect now, and they just need to be arrested by the judiciary, why use the army. ”

The housekeeper doesn't know. "Now everyone is looking for the Luo family, but no one can find it."

Mrs. Lefebble bit her lip. "Nick, you...... Nick?! ”

Mrs. Lefebble hugged her son in a panic.

Nick's face turned white and he glanced blankly at his mother, wanting to say that he was fine, but found that he couldn't make a sound.

Roy, isn't this just missing?

Realizing this, the air and ground abruptly moved away from Nick.

To be honest, he couldn't figure out why he had such a big reaction. After all, he'd only met Roy a few times in total.

But no. He just couldn't stand it. Neither can move nor breathe.

Mrs. Lefableble grabbed Nick and called his name in a panic, and her weeping came out.

The butler on the side hurried over to help, helping Nick and leaning against the wall of the hallway.

Nick twitched his ribs so hard that he managed to get the air into his lungs. "Nothing...... I was suddenly taken aback. ”

Mrs. Lefebble anxiously and distressedly wiped the cold sweat from Nick's head.

"What can we do?" Nick asked his mother.

Mrs. Lefebble could not answer, and looked at the butler.

The butler swallowed and continued to bite the bullet: "That, we may not be able to do anything." Where Miss Roy is, it's not that it's blocked, it's that no one really knows. ”

"Then send someone to find it!" Mrs. Lefebble exclaimed, "What about our family's connections? Let's all get started! I don't believe it, I can't find a girl! ”

"Madame......"

The butler's brain is about to get oil: Have you forgotten that you had a big fight with your connections just a few hours ago?

Nick shook his mother's hand. "Forget Mother. That's what I want to ask. Nothing else. ”

Nick's mother was hesitant. "Really?"

Nick nodded, allowed himself to stand up, and jumped twice to show that he was refreshed. "Let's go, let's go back first. I'm a little sleepy when I'm full. ”

Nick's mother looked incredulous.

But since her son had said so, she tried to swallow her disbelief back. Anyway, now that her son is big, what he says is what he says.

Nick sent his mother to his room before leading the boy back to his room. As soon as the door was closed, Nick collapsed uncontrollably. (To be continued.) )
