Chapter One Hundred and Seven: Scheme
Above the sky, between the clouds. A flying boat quickly cut through the clouds that blocked its path and galloped across the blue sky. The lightness and magnificence of the model, as well as the unusual speed, are all part of the extraordinaryness of the owner of this flying boat. Today, when the price of airships is still high, owning such a luxurious and cutting-edge airship cannot be obtained by forces without strength.
"Young Master, according to the information that came, the teacher who was supposed to be quietly following Young Master Jusis behind them doesn't seem to be coming now." The butler replied respectfully to the young man who was sitting in his seat looking at the papers.
"There's no need to make such a fuss, the reason why they didn't come must have their own considerations." Lufas replied, "I remember that the teacher of Class VII was a guerrilla named Sarah, right?" In the case of insufficient manpower, it is reasonable not to come. Moreover, this kind of internship itself should face difficulties by itself, and it is not beautiful for teachers to follow. ”
"That's right." The butler replied, "It's just that the academy has recently added a deputy head teacher to Young Master Yusis. ”
"Deputy head teacher?" Lufas raised his eyebrows, "Is that the person who was specially called by Prince Olivet as rumored?" ”
"Seems so, yes." The butler replied, "He should have arrived in the first place, because of the matter with Crossbell, he only came to the academy now. ”
"Oh? Is it Cross Bell? Is that his personal experience of that event? Interesting, do you have any information about him? ”
The manager responded, and immediately took out a stack of materials from the bookshelf on the side and handed them over respectfully.
"There's a bit of a lack of information." Lufas weighed the information in hand, and then flipped through it. "Ike Polkatz..." Lufas frowned, "I don't seem to have heard of this person." The person who could be specially selected by the prince of Olivet should not be so obscure. ”
"Because it was a sudden relationship, it was impossible to find more information, but it was noted that this person first appeared during the crisis in Lieber, and he was also present in the subsequent Crossbell incident. But before that, his subordinates couldn't find a little bit of information belonging to this person, and his original information was like being erased, and the person appeared out of thin air, and then became active in various major events.
"It seems that there is a very powerful force behind this person." Lufas stared intently at the information in his hand, "Or maybe there is a helper who is good at espionage." How likely is it that he was behind those big events? ”
"Probably not." The housekeeper shook his head, "Especially in the Crossbell incident, it seems that he was the first to solve it, but for various reasons, he gave the credit to the police." ”
"Take a closer look at this man, especially the forces behind him. No one is out of nowhere. Especially this kind of person who rushes to various major events, his actions must have a considerable purpose. Now is the moment of truth, I but he will know our plans. ”
"Do you want to clear it, then?" A cold glint flashed in the butler's eyes.
“。。。 Not for now. After all, he is still an instructor of the Honorary Military Academy, and if the matter is revealed, it will have a great impact on us, and the plan to win the Military Academy will also be disrupted. Lufas, who thought about it for a long time, shook his head, "Moreover, the intelligence shows that this person is still a B-level guerrilla, and in the case of the guerrilla association being destroyed by the empire, guerrillas of this level are considered rare." If we can, maybe we can join forces with the guerrillas, and the enemy of the enemy is an ally, isn't it? ”
"Then do you need to send someone from your subordinates to try to contact you?"
"No, don't be so impatient, just wait and see. I'm also curious about what kind of abilities the people who were favored by Prince Olivet and participated in solving the two great mutations have. But the primary problem now is still on the side of Iron Will. Their inspection of the nobles is becoming stricter and stricter, and this Imperial Capital Conference requires you to contact the nobles in the Imperial Capital so that they will not be exposed. ”
"My subordinates don't understand." The steward replied, "In the current situation, as long as the iron and blood are dead, and there is no strong sustainer, those government forces will collapse." In that case, why not send or hire hunters to assassinate them? ”
"Do you think you're going to be defenseless as the Prime Minister of the Empire?" Lufas sneered, "Ordinary chaspers, in case of failure, will only make the iron and blood more guarded, and at the same time, the suppression of the nobles is also more severe, but it is a pity that the two famous chasers, the Red Constellation and the Zephyr Brigade, are hiding." Otherwise, there may be hope for hiring them. ”
"That... What about hiring 'those guys'? The butler asked in a whisper.
"Until the details of 'those guys' are known, it is forbidden to use all their powers." Lufas muttered, "These guys are hiding in the shadows, and it is said that the turmoil caused by Liber is also related to them. Organizations that can provoke unrest in a country at will, even if we succeed, they will inevitably be the target of our attack. Knowing this, they are so enthusiastic about helping us, perhaps their goal is to make the Empire as good as Liberal. Especially since the power that just appeared on the surface of the water was so powerful, it was hard to imagine how strong the power behind him was. Forming an alliance with this kind of power is tantamount to conspiring with a tiger, but my father and the other nobles are completely blinded by their immediate interests, and they only think about the success of the plan, and they don't think about how to run the country after success. ”
"Young, young master?!" The housekeeper hurriedly dissuaded: "Master, they must have thought about it." It's just that the main goal now is the success of the plan. ”
"That's fine." A hint of mockery appeared on the corner of Lufas's mouth, "Sometimes, those ordinary commoners are not right, we nobles, some of them should indeed be cleaned up." The existence of these guys not only intensifies the contradictions between nobles and commoners, but also makes the reputation of nobles more and more dirty. It seems that this issue should also be raised after the success of the plan. ”
The butler was speechless, and he could not respond as a noble butler. And the only ones who can say this are the aristocracy, especially the high-ranking nobles. As Lufas said, it looks like he is asking, but in fact, including himself, he knows that these words are more like talking to himself, and no one on this airship dares to answer!
"But the assassination... A good means indeed. Lufas calmed his mind and pondered for a moment before speaking.
"Then, the subordinates immediately go to find the right person." The butler, who was finally able to answer, responded immediately.
"No, we don't need to look for it, and we can't find a professional assassin, for professional things, of course, let the professional do it." Lufas's eyes flashed, "Besides, the strongest assassin has already been prepared, right?" Don't let us down... ”
