The sun slowly climbed into the middle of the sky.

After finishing her guide's work, Miss Aufe arranged the rooms for the three guests and returned to the vestibule once more.

The job of a housekeeper is very hard, especially when there are guests in the house.

They are an extension of the master's etiquette and authority, and they must always understand the master's intentions, respond to them, connect the upper and lower levels, and more importantly, all of this cannot be commanded through the master's mouth.

Because the human heart is unpredictable.

In the unlikely event that the butler's actions cause dissatisfaction among the guests, the host, who has not given instructions, can resolve the embarrassment with timely and appropriate remedies, without hurting his own face or embarrassing the guests.

Fault tolerance, trial and error, this is the duty of a housekeeper.

In order to do a good job in the first reception in her life, Miss Aufe prepared three sets of plans in advance, and carefully consulted Henna and Noah to speculate on Lorraine's intentions and ideas, so that Chuck and Leonard Sr. were divided into priorities and determined today's reception plan.

Until now, everything is in orbit.

The morning tea, which was neither grand nor shabby, restrained Lorraine's dignity as a leader in the small group, and the subsequent visit created time for Lorraine and Chuck to spend time alone and in the office, and the other three, especially Lorraine's old subordinates Leonard and Olmert, were not offended by her actions.

But Lorraine and Chuck had been talking for too long......

According to the arrangement, once the conversation is over, she also takes Chuck to the guest room to rest as soon as possible, which means that as long as the conversation is not over, she cannot personally go to the kitchen to arrange important lunches and afternoon tea, nor does she have time to personally check the guest dresses for the two dinners.

For the time being, Pierce is in charge of the kitchen, and Acharin is in charge of the dress.

But even if she was recommended by Henna, Miss Aufe could not convince herself to trust a young boy who had just reached puberty, and perhaps the French who were more trustworthy than the profligate Frenchman.

What if something goes wrong with lunch?

What if the gown has feathers embroidered on the shoulders?

What if the first hospitality messes up?

Nasty Chuck. Parker, maybe that's why he's extending his office hours indefinitely? Just to make her ugly!

Sure enough, the evil lord should favor the despicable president, and there are only bad people around the bad guys!

Angry, hateful, flustered, poor Miss Orphee stamped her feet, craned her neck proudly, carefully bypassed the parasol of Lorraine and Chuck's private conversation, and walked all the way to the grassy knoll not far away, condescendingly waiting for the end of the conversation.

Once again, she saw Bell wielding an oil pastel.

From a distance, the sandwich at his feet is still lying on the plate, but the colors on the canvas are much richer.

Miss Aufe's curiosity was accidentally aroused again, and before she knew it, she stepped forward and stepped on the grass blanket behind Bell.

A landscape painting, painted with green grass, looking at the woods in the distance, and the path in the forest.

There is an iron gate separating the two at the junction of Lin and Yin, the door is open, and a strange stain leads the four gentlemen who are talking and laughing, and the spring is bright.

Miss Aoiffe was a little strange, why should she put a stain on the painting? Although she did not understand oil painting, she could see that Bell's painting skills were delicate and exquisite, except for the indescribable mass.

"Now, starving ghost ......"

"Shh Bell made a silent gesture on his lips, casually threw away the oil pastel, and brushed his deep drift with his back to Aoife, "Listen, the wind is very noisy today. ”

Miss Aofe's brain went down in a flash.

The warm sun, the meadows, the delicate classicist paintings, and the indescribable stains on the canvas all these disparate elements merge together because of this sentence, casting a ray of light on the dead-skinned starving ghost, and she suddenly realizes a certain indescribable emotion, as well as shyness.

"That...... All I could hear was a whimper in the wind. ”

"So you heard that......" Bell sighed in relief, lowered his head to pack up his painting tools, and slipped them into his armpit, "You know, the wind has sent something ominous." ”

"Something ominous?"

"Yes, wailing, hunger, exhaustion, ominous desires fill this place, accuse this place."

I don't know why, Miss Aoye's heart suddenly tugged together.

She clasped her hands to her chest, flashed nervous eyes and asked, "I...... What am I going to do? ”

"Get out of here! Run away before the wind blows! ”

Dropping the last aria, Belsa ran away. Miss Aoife looked at the paint and painting tools left on the grass in a daze, savoring and pondering......

"Bastard, scoundrel! That messy mess on the painting turned out to be me! Monsters! You make it clear to me! Don't run! ”

……

"The third thing, about Bell. The question of Mr. Judea's crimes......"

Chuck's voice was a little deep, and Lorraine heard a strange taste.

"What's wrong?"

"Things are a little different than you might expect." Chuck said, pulling out a stack of papers from his leather bag and handing them to Lorraine.

The first one is an illustration page, with the title written "WANTED", below which is a rather abstract sketch, and below is written in English, French, and Spanish [Former Royal Navy Lieutenant Bell. Judea, £15 bounty]

"It's ...... Wanted? ”

"Yes, a wanted warrant drawn up in accordance with the trial and the absconding note. The paperwork was sent from Hamilton, the most wanted standard in the world. ”

"Wanted Worldwide!"

Lorraine was stunned, and hurriedly flipped through the warrant, browsing the subsequent documents page by page.

Records of the trial in absentia, records of the crime, circumstantial evidence, verdicts, wanted decisions, and wanted levels......

In general, because of the underdeveloped means of communication, the outcome of trials in military and itinerant courts is graded according to the crime.

Ordinary minor offences are of the third degree and are only valid in the jurisdiction of the court. The more serious ones are the second level, which will be filed with the higher level and will take effect in the realm of the kingdom or colonial governor.

Only the most serious first-degree crimes will be wanted worldwide, which means that the crimes of the wanted person have been divinely condemned by the Kingdom of Great Britain, and wherever the flag flies, he will be convicted.

Lorraine carefully read the trial record, although there were many charges listed, but the only thing that was really convicted and sentenced by the jury was the fact that Bell resold arms to him, and even this one, the evidence presented in court was not sufficient.

In Bell's capacity, this is definitely not a big crime, and it is quite reluctant to even reach the second level, why does Shaq have to make it big to the first level?

It is impossible for Shaq not to know that once the document reaches Plymouth, Bell's family will be finished, and there will be countless people in the House of Lords waiting for their hands to add the last shovel to this nearly dead former tycoon.

Communiqué personal vendetta?

Although he didn't want to admit it, Lorraine's impression of Shaq's personal virtue was not a loss, and he was never like a person who would do such a despicable thing.

Unless, Bell, did something to make Shaq completely consider him an enemy.

What is it?

Lorraine's fingertips crossed the long weave of charges before resting on the arms resale.

Did Bell really do this behind Shaq's back? Shaq really didn't know anything about it?

A trusted subordinate supports his disgusted brother behind his back, and Shaq feels the guilt, so he wants to give Bell a lesson that he will never forget, so that he will live in regret for the rest of his life?

The reason is far-fetched, but apart from this reason, Lorraine could not give a more appropriate explanation......

But this document at least proves that Bell's words are that he is a man who can be trusted and appointed......

Good news? Or bad news?

Lorraine rubbed her eyebrows: "Chuck, about the world's most wanted?" ”

"Nine hundred pounds, I have bought all three of the originals, the two in Kingston and the two to be sent to Plymouth are in your possession, and one in Hamilton, and they have promised to take them out for me within two months."

"You're doing a great job...... Will there be any sequelae? ”

"For the sake of safety, Mr. Judea's arrest in Bermuda cannot be revoked, and that requires the signature of Baron Drake. As for the rest...... Documents are fragile, and wanted materials like this are not properly preserved, and the damage rate is as high as 50%. No one will make a big fuss about a missing document, and no one will chew on the root of the baron's ear. ”

"Does your partner know you're targeting Bell?"

"I retrieved all eight piled documents for the past six months and handed back three copies, and he didn't know my purpose."

"That's good, Bell's business...... It's rotten in my heart. ”

"Yes."
