"Little girl, as a fan of mine, shouldn't you say something at this time?"

Grace narrowed her eyes like a fox, and almost wrote the word cunning on her face. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Oops...... This woman is even more difficult than she imagined...... Because of Cross Bell's special environment, news coverage has become an act of exercising people's insight, think of Mayor Henry, who is the man who has seen through You's true identity as soon as he meets him...... Grace is definitely weaker than him, but it's probably not that bad......

"Well, I, I'm just too stunned to know what to do......"

You reluctantly found a reason.

"Huh?"

Grace's left eyebrow furrowed, but her right eyebrow sank into an interested expression.

"Forget it, anyway, I'm almost drunk, and then, little sister, come and accompany my sister to a fun place~"

Probably, I want to say that there are a lot of people here--a miscellaneous ghost...... There are just four guests plus a bartender.

But it's understandable, after all, the bartender is an outsider.

You knew that she had concluded that she knew what she knew, and she could only sigh that she was worthy of being a professional reporter, and her insight was really excellent.

――――――

"Uh-huh, you're welcome to sit casually."

Grace pushed open the door to her apartment and welcomed everyone with the smell of alcohol.

The group arrived at Grace's apartment.

An apartment that can be found everywhere and will be used by ordinary office workers.

At the beginning of the tour, I was still worried, will it be the same as Ilya, a place with a very "bold" apartment layout? Thankfully, no.

Grace's room was very clean, although there was dust in the corners, but the whole was very neat.

But she said she was going to sit casually, but there were only four chairs in total, so she couldn't go to bed casually, right?

Sitting down around the table, Grace brought out frozen barley tea for the three of them......

"Now, little girl, you ...... Sure enough, you know something, right? Come on, let's not test each other...... Let's talk about it. Which side are you, though? Imperial Military Intelligence Agency? (The Empire's intelligence agency) Locksmith Agency? (the intelligence agencies of the republic) or an underground facilitator of the Speaker of the Amendment? Or something else? ”

Actually, I'm Yu Tatsumi.

If she really said that, how wonderful her expression would be!

However, You tried her best to resist the thought. If I really say it, I'm afraid I won't be able to hold my head up for the rest of my life......

It's true that I don't care that anyone knows, but that doesn't mean I don't care that the whole world knows that this secret is publicized......

"Assist the Speaker of the Amendment. I sensed that the Speaker had been acting a little strangely lately, so I wanted to see if I could find some clues......"

"Hmm...... So, is there anything that can prove identity? ”

This......

That's embarrassing......

In the face of Grace's rather distrustful eyes, You really couldn't think of anything that could be used as evidence.

"Unexpected? Well, forget it! ”

Unexpectedly, she actually waved her hand and let him go!

"It doesn't matter if you're a spy for the empire or the republic~ Anyway, there must be a countermeasure on the Speaker's side."

"Ahaha......"

Should I rejoice?

"So, let's talk about how far you've mastered, right?"

Grace smiled and poured herself a cup of tea, and drank it dry, the cold liquid irritated her throat, and made her slightly dizzy head clear after drinking.

"The plan to revise the speaker has been disrupted. He is ready to break with the Karuman Consortium and is already training the Special Mission Support Section. And, acting a little nervous...... I suspect he may have been unable to help himself. ”

There is no need to hide this kind of thing, Miss Grace is not a person who cannot see the big picture. Moreover, she should also be the assistant of the Speaker of the Amendment.

No, it should be said...... The entire Crossbell News Agency was his ally, only this time it was Grace who came out on top.

Then, You told Grace the clues she could think of, and looking at the serious expression of the female reporter, You knew that she was similar to what she had guessed.

"I'll tell you the unfortunate news, your assumptions are basically correct. A week ago, I received a last communication from the Speaker of the Parliament, asking us to prepare for action in the near future and start using public opinion to build momentum to bring down the Speaker and reorganize the Parliament...... In this case, the Karuman consortium is an outsider, so there is no reason to intervene. Forcibly intervening would only invite resentment against Crossbell's eyeing empire and republic. ”

A week ago, it was the Crossbell Independence Conference that had not yet been officially convened......

No, it should be said that it was the time when the strength of the Karumon consortium had not yet been shown in front of everyone.

The plan of the Speaker of the Speaker was very simple, lure the tiger to drive the wolf, then sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, and finally drive the tiger away.

He borrowed the Karuman consortium to take power, took power autocratically, and then overthrew himself, and at the same time overthrew the justice of the Karuman consortium, at this time, if the Karuman consortium insisted on Cross Bell's executive power, it would become the target of public criticism. Then you can get rid of them properly. Finally, a new parliament headed by Deputy Speaker Henry McDowell was formed, and those who tried to plot to divide Crossbell were admonished, and he Xiu Harman was the best example.

It would have been a great plan.

However, as the saying goes, the more delicate the machine, the more it will crumble because of the smallest parts.

There was only one point in the whole plan that the Speaker was miscalculated.

This fatal point is the strength of the Karumen consortium.

They are strong, everyone knows it.

But just how strong is it?

If a number is greater than 100, then it can be 101 or 100 million.

The Speaker of the Amendment has miscalculated the word "strong".

"However, since two days ago, I have not been able to contact the Speaker of the Amendment, needless to say that I will meet in person, and I can't even communicate with him, and I can't contact him by all means. Not only that, but Deputy Speaker McDowell has recently moved to work in the Orchid Tower due to his busy schedule (speaking of which, Grace laughs mockingly, she understands that this is house arrest...... So, we consulted and first published the critical article in my own name, which had already been reviewed and stamped by the Speaker of the Amendment. Sure enough, I was expelled. ”

You looked at Reynz and saw that he had been silent and did not speak, and it seemed that he was in the know. Just deliberately pretending to be honest.

"It seems that the Speaker of the Speaker has indeed suffered. The best could be house arrest, and at worst, be killed. ”

You Chensi said quietly, his tone couldn't help but be a little heavy.

In the style of the Karuman consortium...... The likelihood of being killed is higher.

The last half of the sentence, he didn't say.

"yes, maybe I've been killed...... It's a pity, I still like this little speaker. ”

Grace's tone was also a little nostalgic.

"From the fact that I was expelled, it was clear that the Speaker was not capable of protecting me at all. Otherwise he should be able to procrastinate. Looks, Crossbell, I'm afraid I'm going to change a lot! ”

Obviously, when she said it again, Grace actually smiled.

To be able to face such a desperate situation and still smile so cheerfully, it is either a wide heart, or a strong heart, or both.

"If you think so...... Miss Grace, you're going to show up in the bar, and sure enough, it's calculated, right? ”

You squinted her eyes and made this ordinary gesture by the woman's face, highlighting a beautiful beauty.

"Well, I think somebody is going to contact me or make trouble for me, right? So, take the initiative to act as a bait! The reporter of Crossbell Times was killed for daring to tell the truth, so that another wave of anti-dictatorship could be set off, right? ”

Gray didn't care about what he said, even if he said that he would sacrifice his life to Crossbell, she still didn't have the slightest fear.

"How strong, Miss Grace. Even his own life can be abandoned. ”

"Well, who made me a Crossbell? Now Crossbell is one step away from being a freshman...... If it falls short like this, you don't have the face to see the people who have died unjustly over the years. Especially Mr. Gay. Since my life still has such a great effect, let it work to its fullest effect here. ”

Grace bared a row of teeth and smiled brightly.

You couldn't help but be infected by her boldness, and couldn't help but look forward to it, what kind of ideal country would the newborn Crossbell be?

"So, after listening to the current situation, little girl, what are you going to do?"

Grace asked nonchalantly. This time it was really careless, she just asked out of curiosity.

“……”

"Little girl?"

"I'm going to wait and see what the Support Section will do. Then look at Karumen. Everything, you can't get around Karumen......"

You sighed and said something a little unmotivated.

No matter how you act now, you will run into the great enemy of the Karuman consortium. There is simply no way to get around them.

"Hmph, that's a cunning approach."

"Please call him 'rational'. It would be a waste to die blindly. ”

You suddenly thought of Luciola's evaluation of herself, [already dead]. It's a bit ironic for a dead man to say that it's a waste to give his life.

With a wry smile, You said goodbye to Grace.

There were only two people left in the room, Grace and Reynz. The two who have been partners are silent, not knowing what they are thinking.

After a long time, Grace sighed: "Great. ”

"What?"

"I mean, it's great."

Grace's aqua blue eyes drifted out the window, and she gradually became distracted.

"Great, the Speaker is not alone. Great, the children in the support section are still moving. If it's a support department, no matter how desperate it is, it's going to forcibly create a way out, right? ”

"Senior...... Oh, yes. Didn't we watch them grow along the way? ”

"Well, forget it. this kind of mind doesn't look like my style! Come and have a drink with me, Reynz! Seniors have enough beer pipes here! ”

"Wow wow, it's not good for seniors to drink during the day!!"

"What does it matter! We're all fired anyway! (To be continued.) )
