Chapter 52: Emergency braking

Since its opening, the international trade business of Belakaser Airport has been increasing, but it has not yet reached the level of full capacity, usually 2-4 federal transport ships come and go here every day, and the Norman Empire and the Kingdom of Basel each have 1 transport ship arriving regularly to complete cargo loading and unloading at the airport.

Upon arrival in Belakasser, Weiss led security personnel around warehouses and bayonets in the name of inspection, and conducted special screenings of foreign staff stationed in Belakasser. Since the war had stopped, in his particular vision, both Basel and Norman personnel were presented with a white imaginary frame, meaning that they did not have any hostile tendencies. Of course, this alone does not lead to the inference that they did not assist in the escape of the federal personnel and the suspicion of spying on federal intelligence, after all, the fact that espionage assisted the relevant personnel in absconding does not have to be attributed to hostile acts in the true sense of the word.

Just when Weiss was at a loss for what Gunevere was going to, he suddenly saw an impressive face on the side of the Norman staff, who had served as a guide for them in the duty-free and royal treasures of the Norman capital, and was attentive to Gunevere. This middle-aged man looks like an old butler who is not bullied, with his identity, he should not appear here anyway, and he is very low-key and hidden, but a very coincidental opportunity was recognized by Weiss. This face convinced Weiss that Gunnevere's disappearance had something to do with Belasser, and he sent a telegram to Octavire. Tell her that Bella Casser is always ready to come and inspect her.

After sending the telegram, Weiss departed aboard a federal transport ship that had arrived to deliver the cargo, along with the members of the emergency response team who had arrived earlier, but they did not actually leave, but made a brief landing in an area of obstructed sight shortly after flying away from Bellakasser. Weiss left the transport ship with the members of the emergency response team and returned to Belakaser on foot.

In the period of guerrilla warfare in Lorraine, they did not walk much at night on the snow-capped mountains, but in peacetime, in the absence of hostile armed men, the night march seemed to be a training exercise of skill and will. In the area east of Belakase, the number of beasts is small. Even if they did encounter those ferocious beasts, the free trial assault rifles carried by Weiss and the members of the emergency response team were not vegetarian. They had 25 men, 24 assault rifles, and plenty of ammunition, which was enough to deal with any contingencies. When it comes to solving problems, force is often the most direct and effective way to solve problems, but the power of wisdom should not be underestimated.

After a night of trekking, near dawn, Weiss and his party finally returned to Belakasser, and with the help of their own officials, secretly sneaked back to the international airport. They hid in the attic of the warehouse and in some hidden positions, closely monitoring the entire airport, and on the evening of their return to Belakaser, the last transport plane of the day from Union territory landed.

Except for the crew members who went through the handover procedures, the rest of the crew could only move around the landing site and the rest area specially prepared for them, and just after these crew members left the transport ship one after another, Weiss's eyes lit up when he saw a relatively thin figure. The figure, though wearing a crew's costume, looked out of place.

Seeing them enter the crew rest area, Weiss quietly left the squatting position, and led several members of the emergency team to the crew rest area, waiting on the side close to the Norman management area. After a while, I saw the Norman squire with two people sneakily touching the outer wall of the rest area. There was a window, perhaps a vent in the bathroom, and a figure flipped out of that window and slipped into the nearby Norman administration area. The members of the emergency response team tried to do it, but Weiss stopped them. Because judging from the scene in front of her, Gunivael was not coerced, but there was some kind of autonomous behavior. What made her rather give up her status as a big star, give up a good life, and sneak away to the Norman Empire? Could it be that the Normans could have given her much more than the treatment of a big star?

If it was just money, jewelry, food, and delicacies, there was no reason for Gunevere, who was born in the Grumman family, to turn his back on his country and go to the Norman Empire. For such a lady who has lived in a privileged environment since childhood, what can make her desperate for adventure. The answer is not difficult to guess.

Locking down the movements of the target person, Weiss immediately set about deployment. After nightfall, next to the Norman transport ship that was about to leave the air port of Belakaser with its cargo, Weiss suddenly appeared with an emergency team, and instead of forcibly boarding the ship, they stopped at the gangway. They stopped a man and a woman on the spot, the woman was a disguised Gunnevere, and the man turned out to be Prince Baras, who held the military power of the Norman Empire. Faced with the sudden appearance of the muzzle, the two men did not panic. Gonevere kept her head down and didn't speak, and Prince Barras looked at Weiss with disdain. Although the surrounding Normans did not draw their guns, it was clear that they would not be intimidated by the dozen or twenty federal armed men.

"You don't mind sitting down and talking, do you?" Weiss spoke.

Prince Barras did not move, but held his head high and said, "What do you want to talk about?" ”

"It doesn't seem reasonable to take people away from us, there are no compliance procedures!" Weiss said to him, then looked at Gunnevere and said, "As for you, I feel that you owe me a reasonable explanation, and you owe Octavier a reasonable explanation. She's crazy to know you're missing. As you can imagine, the members of the Grumman family, especially old Henry, are going crazy, and I don't understand why you're doing that. ”

"There's a lot more you don't understand." Prince Barras interjected, "Get out of the way for me while you haven't torn your face yet." ”

"If it was two years ago, you would have had the final say, but now you can't decide what happens here." Weiss shot back unceremoniously.

Prince Barras did not become angry, but sneered a few times. In the darkness, the sound of pulling the bolt of a gun sounded all around, which made the members of the emergency team nervous. At the Belakaser Air Harbor, there were hundreds of federal soldiers in charge of security, but in order to avoid startling the snakes, Weiss did not gather them. In the current situation, if there is a sudden exchange of fire, the Normans may not be able to take advantage, and in the end it is likely to be the result of losing both.

Weiss didn't have a gun in his hand, he calmly looked at the members of the emergency team beside him, signaled that they didn't need to panic, and then said, "Not long ago, you told me that you really wanted to see our new weapons. Now I have seen it. You know exactly what it can do, and you see, there's no need to risk putting all of our lives, especially you and that of Gunivale, in a chaotic conflict that could ensue at any moment. Someone like me has been born and died on the battlefield too many times, even doing crazy things like jumping out of the air. I haven't married yet, and my family already has fresh blood, so I look at life relatively lightly, and you are different, you still have your own bright future. ”

Weiss can accentuate the tone of the respective words.

At this time, the person who should have spoken the most, Gunivale, finally spoke: "I'm sorry for causing you a lot of trouble, and I also caused a lot of trouble for Octavier. I know that my behavior is indeed a bit selfish and irrational. I think it's an uncontrolled act, but I don't want to betray the country, I just want to meet the people I want to meet. Ten minutes ago, I hadn't decided to leave here, and it was the dreams that every girl dreamed of that shook me...... I want to have a fairytale wedding, I want to be the princess of all eyes, and all this will only appear in the theater in the Federation. I took the brave step and left with him, running for my dreams, but I also knew that this was a dream that could be shattered at any time, but I wanted to take a risk. ”

Sad princess dream, Weiss lamented in his heart, he stared coldly at Prince Barras, whether his sweet words were sincere or some other intention, in fact, it didn't matter, what mattered was that he wanted to take Gunevere away. It's unbearable for both reason and reason, but Gunevere is like a person who has fallen into a dream, unwilling to wake up.

Isn't it possible to forcibly tie her back?

"I'm curious, would the Normans accept a woman from the Commonwealth as their princess or even queen?" Weiss asked in Norman.

Because it was Norman, which Gunivelle didn't understand, Prince Barras was not so cramped, but held his head high and said, "What I promised will definitely be done!" I must do what I promised! ”

"Is this love at first sight? Venerable Prince Barras! Weiss sneered.

"Don't you feel like love at first sight?" Prince Barras asked rhetorically.

Weiss shook his head: "I'm sorry, I don't believe in love at first sight, and I don't expect it to be love at first sight, I only believe in reality, I only look forward to an ordinary life." ”

"You're such a boring person." Prince Barras said unceremoniously.

"The other side of the boredom is the steadiness and steadfastness that you can't understand." Weiss retorted, and then he picked out the subject: "You know, at this moment, I can't let you go, unless you kill me and my people here, but what it means, you should know very well. In that case, we might as well take a step back and you and Gunevere go back to the lounge area. I guarantee your safety, and I mean your safety here. You can think about it! If you really love each other, you don't have to sneak away like this, and you can do a normal application for Gunivale. There is no law in the Commonwealth that prohibits its citizens from marrying Normans, and you are a prince and a knight, so why can't you make these things right? ”

Prince Barras hesitated for a moment, then replied, "Just now, Gunevere has already said that some things are because we have figured it out, and we can't help it, and we don't want to stay even a moment longer. Now that we've come this far, we might as well talk about it frankly. I'm going to take her away anyway, but I can't do the applications and procedures you mentioned in the current situation, and there are some reasons that you understand. ”

Just one, you know, want to take our federal roses away? Weiss once again despised the Norman royal family in front of him.

The two sides were in a face-to-face stalemate. After a while, Gunnevere's body began to tremble, perhaps out of nervousness, perhaps out of tiredness. Prince Barras sensed her situation, and when he saw Weiss and his entourage not giving an inch, he finally sighed helplessly and said, "As you wish, let's go back to the rest area and talk about this matter!" ”

Weiss made a gesture of please, and followed them to the Normans' working quarters.
