Chapter 177: I must cut off this flag
The purpose of the countess's visit to the tavern was obvious, and even Wang Kangde, who was an outsider, knew it very well in his heart.
"If this Rowan can take this opportunity to get in touch with the Countess of Safi, even to a certain extent, then it is necessary to start the third plan......"
Wang Kangde thought silently, but quietly pulled Wang Lu away from the table.
Now that the Countess has come, it seems inappropriate for him to continue, and it seems that the purpose of the day can only end in failure.
He didn't leave the tavern though, as it was a very good opportunity to observe.
……
In Fernandi, Countess Safi has a special status, her husband is the last heir to the Water Family, one of Fernandi's founding families, but the last heir of the Water Family dies shortly after the two get married.
Yes, he died, very suddenly, and without leaving any heirs!
This is also a matter of course, after all, the Countess of Safi is not yet pregnant.
When the Earl was confirmed to have died suddenly, the Water Family immediately fell into an unprecedented shock, after all, this is a family of blood inheritance, once the Earl dies and has no heirs, then the Water Family will completely lose its backbone, and no one can preside over the overall situation anymore, even if a capable person stands up, it will not be recognized, because they do not have the blood of the Water Family...... Not even a collateral bloodline!
For the water family at that time, it was indeed in a desperate situation!
And at that time, it was the Countess of Safi who stood up!
It can be said that the Countess, as the wife of the Countess, was the only person who could be reluctantly recognized at that time, and more importantly, the Countess at that time did not know what means were used to successfully control a treasure of the Water Family!
That Arcana is the foundation of the Water Family based on Fernandi, and it is an item that can only be used by those who have the blood of the Water Family, but the Countess, who should not have any blood relationship with the Count, has successfully controlled the Arcana!
So Countess Safi became the centerstone of the Water Family, and in the days that followed, she showed her talents, keeping the Water Family in order, and even taking it to the next level!
But this is the same countess, who was assassinated the night before!
If it weren't for the sudden rescue of the owner of the Flame Girl Tavern, the Countess might have even lost her money!
The Water Family was furious, and a big storm of investigation and capture was set off on the spot.
Of course, it was a turmoil at the aristocratic level, and it did not affect the remote East Street.
The Countess, however, came to East Street in person today......
"Hello."
The Countess sat down across from Rowan, gently brushed a strand of hair that fell down to her face, and then glanced slightly shyly at the young boss opposite.
"I haven't asked your name directly......"
She just said an ordinary opening remark, but the chief of the guard who followed her was "Geleng" in her heart, and two words popped out of her mind: "Oops!" ”
For all these years, since the sudden death of the Count, the Countess had never looked at people with such eyes!
The chief of the guard, who had been the Earl's personal guard, followed the Countess and dutifully protected her.
But the night before yesterday, he happened to be away to deal with something, which gave the assassin a chance!
Thinking about it now, he should have fallen for some people's plan to divert the tiger from the mountain!
After thinking about this, he regretted it very much and vowed never to stay away from Madame in the future!
But what if the Countess suddenly falls in love?
When the Countess goes on a date in the future, should he stand a little farther away? Will standing too close affect the Countess's mood? But what if you stand too far and your wife is suddenly in danger?
He had never thought about it...... 23333
Under the entangled gaze of the chief of the guard, the countess gradually returned to normal.
Rowan smiled at her: "Hello, my name is Rowan and I have never asked your name." ”
"It's ......," the countess smiled slightly, "it's been a long time since anyone has asked my name." ”
Yes, since her husband died suddenly shortly after the marriage, everyone else only said that she was the Countess of Safi of the Water Family, and almost removed the word "madam"!
But she still opened her mouth slightly, ready to say her name.
However, Luo Wen, who noticed this, suddenly said: "It's me who didn't think it through, it's really hard to say." ”
The Countess was stunned.
The chief of the guard, who was nervously watching beside her, was also stunned.
Rowan continued very calmly: "If Madame is here to thank me for saving my life that day, then there is no need. The assassin actually assassinated me in front of my tavern, and I couldn't do it. ”
The countess's expression was slightly sad: "Really? It wasn't for me......"
Her voice was very low, but Rowan's hearing was so good that he could hear it clearly, and he suddenly felt that he had suddenly become the male protagonist in a romance, and his heart was numb.
So, he immediately said: "Of course, no matter who was assassinated in the first place, I would take action." ”
The countess's expression became more and more sad: "Really? I got ......."
The corners of the guard's mouth twitched beside her, and he didn't know how to complain.
In these years, is there really someone who doesn't understand the customs so much?
But Rowan is not a man who is always dull, he knows it very well.
When he first discovered this countess in the audience, he had a judgment on this woman in his heart and gave her the label of "nymphomaniac".
He doesn't like nymphomaniac.
Moreover, Rowan did not know that the Countess of Safi was a widow who had been widowed for many years......
Therefore, it is very natural that he will regard Countess Safi as the kind of lady who often appears in Western movies!
He has no interest in being raised by such a noble lady and becoming a little white face!
The Countess of Safi did not know that she had been so misunderstood, she felt that she was very wronged, and she had only said a word or two of greetings before she was so confronted by the other party.
For some reason, the mixture of loss and grief kept coming over her, leaving her uneasy and her eyes red.
Fortunately, her foundation is thick enough that no one else can see anything.
But then, how do you continue the conversation?
The Countess was a little embarrassed, for the first time she found herself running out of words.
But Luo Wen, who was opposite her, continued to push forward very skillfully: "By the way, Madame finally came to the tavern once, you must not miss the delicacies of our tavern, I will go and ask the chef to serve you dumplings!" ”
After saying this, Rowan gently pushed away the chair, stood up very gracefully and calmly, and then turned and walked towards the kitchen.
Coherent!
On the wall, the lady in the portrait narrowed her eyes, and the sorrow in the countess's heart deepened......
……
Don't look at what happened during this time, it would take a full 2,000 words to narrate, but in fact, the Countess and the tavern owner only said a few words in total, giving people the impression that the Countess had just sat down, but the tavern owner immediately stood up!
Wang Kant was stunned by this scene, he put himself in his shoes, thought about it as Luo Wen, and found that he would never be able to do this kind of thing!
"This Boss Luo's neatness and neatness are simply astonishing! And even the charm of the Countess of Safi could not make his heart move, how tenacious is his heart? ”
Just as Wang Kangde was thinking this, Wang Lu beside him took his hand and asked him in a low voice, "Uncle, does Boss Naluo hate Mrs. very much?" ”
Wang Kangde trembled, and hurriedly covered Wang Lu's mouth with his hand, then dragged him out of the tavern and ran away!
However, the tavern at that time was so quiet that even a needle could be heard clearly, and Wang Lu's voice was actually not too low, so how could the countess not hear it?
Not only the Countess, but all the guests and clerks heard it too!
The sane guests began to sneak out, and the guests who liked to die covered their mouths and chuckled, and then were glared at by the guards and ran away.
"Hey, you haven't paid yet!"
Lisa took the opportunity to chase after her, and then laughed silently outside the door, she almost couldn't hold it back, the boss is really a talent.
After that, Rowan really brought out a bowl of dumplings......
The countess tasted the dumplings in a daze, feeling that this unseen pastry was indeed unexpectedly delicious, but this could not wash away the depression in her heart.
The portraits on the walls are still laughing.
Rowan didn't stop her this time.
The Countess silently finished a whole bowl of dumplings, and the heavy makeup on her face was completely spent.
No matter how skillfully she asked for a wet wipe from the maid, and then wiped off all the makeup on her face, revealing a face that was even more beautiful than after makeup.
"Let's go."
She sniffed slightly and stood up.
After the maid had paid, she slowly left the tavern with all the people.
Her back was a little lost, a little lonely.
Rowan breathed a sigh of relief, feeling cute.
……
Soon after the countess took the people away, Lu Yuan finally returned from the branch of the Adventure Alliance, he just missed the big scene just now, and was full of confusion and puzzlement at the faint smiles of the tavern clerks.
However, after seeing Luo Wen, he still gave him a thumbs up very proudly: "It's done!" ”
Then he took out a large handful of badges and put them on the table, and immediately scattered them on the table.
"These are new adventure badges?" Rowan asked with some surprise, aren't there more than a dozen badges on this table?
"That's it." Lu Yuan looked very atmospheric, "These are adventure badges, you can pick any one you like!" ”
"Ten dollar badges, you think you're a baby?" Alice complained, but walked over first.
She was originally an adventurer, and she was also an adventurer with a lot of points, but now that she had left the Farm Children Adventure Guild, she decided to abandon the past and start over.
As for the adventurer's badge that recorded the shameful nickname of "Son of Milk", of course, she also completely sealed it!
"Since there are so many, I'll pick one too, right?" Lisa also walked over, a little moved.
Rowan couldn't help but pull out a smile, this Lisa obviously refused very simply when she asked last time.
Sure enough, women are fickle!
You see, even Qin Ying, who also refused, came over!
Thinking so, Rowan picked up the badge and looked at it.
The lowest-level Adventurer Badge is the same, with the Adventurer's League logo on the back and a big "H" on the front!
But when the magic flows into it, you can perceive the simple data recorded in it.
And in the case of 0 adventure points, the difference between the badges is only in the name.
As for the name, adventurers can use either their real name or a fake name when registering, and even many adventurers directly register with a nickname that can represent themselves.
For example, the members of the Farm Sons Adventure Guild all use their main agricultural products as their names.
Among them, John's family grows potatoes, so he is the "son of potatoes", President Blake's family is mainly a seller of wool, so he is a "son of wool", and Alice's family is a "son of milk", so he is a "son of milk"!
These are the names they registered with Adventure League!
And the same is true of the badges brought by Lu Yuan, some of which look like personal names, and some of which are obviously nicknames, but other than that, there is no record of gender.
Seeing that they were so happy, even Rowan himself couldn't help but want to pick another one, after all, the one he registered himself was registered with his real name, so there was no feeling of an adventurer at all!
After all, when it comes to adventurers, aren't they all "bloody claws", "arms of steel", and "flames of destruction"?
Seeing that they were all gathered around a table, Obi in the kitchen couldn't help but walk out......
Rowan clearly remembers that Obi was very adamant that he just wanted to be a chef!
Indeed, the words of this man cannot be believed, neither men nor women.
Soon, the tavern clerks all picked out their favorite adventurer badges.
Alice's adventurer's name is "The Fourth One".
Lisa's adventurer's name is "The Lady of Tenderness".
Qin Ying's adventurer's name is "Guardian".
Obi's adventurer's name is "John"!
……
Let's not complain about the adventurer's name chosen by Alice and Lisa for the time being, let's take a look at Obi.
Yes, Obi's adventurer's name is "John"!
"John" is a very popular name, many people are called by their real names, and there are countless similar examples, so there is no "no good name" rule in Adventure League.
However, in the internal records of the Adventure League, the Adventure Alliance will put the same name after it, such as "John 007", "John 10086" and so on.
…… and so on
