Chapter 104: A rake
It was eight o'clock in the evening, and Kenneth came out of the Hannah Pavilion and returned to the office of the Ministry of Security, and when he saw Marcus lying comfortably on the sofa reading a book, he kicked Marcus very unhappily and said, "Make room for me." ”
Marcus said angrily, "Can't you just sit over there?" ”
Kenneth sat down on the sofa and said unreasonably, "You're a minister, I'm a minister?" ”
"Okay, you're the boss, right? What's the matter, the student council president is in trouble with you? Marcus was pushed aside by Kenneth, a zombie face full of schadenfreude.
"No, it's 'us' trouble." Kenneth deliberately insisted on the pronunciation of the word "we", and looked at Marcas who thought he was out of the way.
"'We'?" Marcas's eyelids jumped and he asked, "What the hell is that trouble?" ”
Kenneth scratched his head and said vaguely: "It seems that we are going to solve some task, anyway, from tomorrow, there will be a mission letter coming." ”
"Mission letter? It's not an adventurer's guild here, so how can there be a mission letter? Marcus looked puzzled.
"I don't know, that's what the president told me anyway. We'll be busy from tomorrow......" Kenneth said with a sad face as he leaned back into the not-so-soft sofa.
Marcus glanced at Kenneth's expression and said disdainfully, "Isn't it just some tasks?" Do you need to worry so much? ”
Kenneth stared at the ceiling and said, "Of course, it's not all because of this...... But why would he say such a thing as making me the student council president? ”
"Isn't that a good thing? With your strength, I think it's more than enough to be a student president. Marcus said nonchalantly.
Kenneth lamented, "Good for your size, it's important to be the student council president!" I didn't really understand what they were talking about......"
"Isn't that right? Anyway, the student president didn't say that you have to be the president, didn't you say who won the selection battle in September? Boss, are you thinking too much? Marcus took the apple on the table, took a bite and said vaguely.
Kenneth was stunned for a moment, and then reacted, yes, he may not be able to be the student council president, so what are you still thinking about here? So Kenneth got up and said, "It's time, let's go." ”
"Okay." Marcus jumped to his feet, and in the blink of an eye, only the core of the apple was left in his hand.
However, just as the two of them were about to walk out of the office, they were stopped by two students, the first of whom was Rob Kuta, a fourth-year student who designed to insult Jasmine that day, and the only two sons of the Marquis of Derrickley, although they were only the youngest sons, but because of their outstanding magical talent and likable looks, they were favored by the Marquis of Kuta. It is conceivable that the eighteen-year-old Rob's life is so smooth, and he feels that there is nothing in the world that he can't get, so he naturally develops the common disease of aristocrats, that is, arrogance, even if there are complicated etiquette to wrap it, it still can't hide this essence.
And stupidity often stems from arrogance.
After Mick spoiled the good deeds that day, he found someone to check on the students in the Phil Mansion who did not attend the first-year prom, but the first-year students were not too familiar with each other, and they couldn't find any useful clues, so they had to give up for the time being. But the more Rob thought about it, the more unwilling he became, and then he approached the security department of the student union.
Kenneth looked at Rob, who looked like he was either rich or expensive, and asked, "May I ask who you are?" ”
Rob spoke, "I'm Rob Kuta, and you're from the Ministry of Security?" ”
Kenneth nodded, "I'm the Minister of Security. ”
"Oh?" Rob looked Kenneth up and down, and then said, "I have something to report, let me go in and talk about it." With that, Rob and Crowe behind him pushed Kenneth and Marcus into the office and sat down on the couch, but then they both frowned.
Kenneth had no choice but to go back to his office, sit down at his desk and say, "Marcas, you make you two a cup of coffee." Let's talk about the issue you want to report. ”
Rob asked Marcas to stop and said, "I don't need coffee, I guess you won't be able to get any good coffee, lest I have to have a stomach trouble at night." ”
Marcus's face seemed to turn white again, but after being glared at by Kenneth, he settled down and sat down opposite Kenneth, looking at Rob and Kuta with unkind eyes.
Rob cleared his throat and said to Kenneth, "What I want to report is that someone attacked me and my companions in front of the Magic Technology Laboratory Building on the night of May 12th. ”
Kenneth raised an eyebrow, picked up a pen and paper and asked, "Do you know the exact time?" ”
Rob thought for a moment and said, "It should be during the prom." ”
"That's between twenty-one and twenty-three. How many people are on the other side? ”
"Just one person."
"Alone?" Kenneth wondered, "You two aren't rivals alone?" ”
Rob explained: "We were both drunk at the time, and certainly not his opponent. ”
"Oh, by the way, I haven't asked you what grade you are?"
"Fourth grade." Crowe replied.
"Fourth grade? So why did you go to the Magic Technology Laboratory? Kenneth asked curiously.
Rob replied, "We were so drunk that we wanted to catch our breath and walked out of the banquet hall, who knew that we would end up in the first-year district as soon as we left?" ”
Kenneth was surprised in his heart, but he still wrote it down, and then asked, "Can you describe the process of the other party's attack on you?" ”
"Hmm...... It was while the two of us were wandering around that the man suddenly burst out of the building, froze our feet and caused us to fall to the ground, and then burned our clothes with a small fireball. That's it! Rob deceived Kenneth by telling a lie he had made up long ago.
And Marcus, who had been staring at Rob firmly in the eye, smiled contemptuously after hearing this.
Kenneth recorded these and asked, "Did you get hurt in any way?" ”
"That's not true, because of the sealing magic in the academy, his magic effect is not very great, except for the abrasions on his face, there are no other injuries." By this time, the abrasions on Rob and Crow's faces had long since healed.
"That's right...... Since it only caused a small injury, maybe it was just a joke, so why did the two seniors bother to dig into it? Kenneth asked, puzzled.
Unexpectedly, Crow got up and said unhappily: "Do you know what our identities are?" I'm the son of Viscount Kakuta, and Rob is the youngest son of Marquis Kuta's favorite, do you still think it's just a trifle? ”
Kenneth blinked and asked innocently, "Isn't it?" ”
This made Rob and Crow sink their faces for a moment, but it made Marcus laugh on the side.
Crow exasperated, "Do you know what that means? ”
Kenneth spread his hands and said, "I really don't know, didn't I just let you fall?" As for being so serious? ”
"Of course!" But it was Rob Tie who said with a blushing face, "That person is probably a pariah who is dissatisfied with the nobility, and is secretly waiting for an opportunity to take revenge!" Now what do you think? ”
Kenneth still felt that Rob was making a big fuss, and that his use of the word "untouchable" was very harsh, so his tone became cold, and he continued, "So do you know some of his physical characteristics?" ”
Rob recalled with a grim face, "Because he happened to be facing away from the Four Sacred Stars, we didn't see much clearly. But he's not tall, and his hair is blonde, so there must be no wrong! ”
"And the wand he used was inlaid with a sapphire of no small quality! It also has a rich green tinge, which is supposed to be a sapphire from the Oros Mountains! Crow blurted out.
Kenneth was stunned when he heard this, looking at the words "not tall", "blonde", "sapphire of the Oros Mountains" written on the paper, plus he didn't attend the ball and the magic technology laboratory building, that person, is that ...... Mick?
Because the sapphire was bought by Kenneth for Mick, he remembered very well that when the boss introduced it to him, he did say that it was a fine sapphire from the Olos Mountains.
This made Kenneth suddenly tangled, so much so that he ignored the unreasonableness of Crow's words, but fortunately, there was also Marcas, who had a lot of experience as an adventurer, and after listening to the words of the two, his heart was already clear.
"Uh...... Okay, then we will definitely notify you as soon as we find him to confirm, so let's go back first today. Kenneth suppressed the doubts in his heart and sent the two out of the door.
Kenneth closed the door as soon as he was sure that Rob and the two were far away, and said to Marcus with a nervous expression, "What should I do?" It seems to be Mick who sneaked up on them! ”
Marcus was stunned for a moment and asked rhetorically, "Who is Mick?" ”
"Oh, by the way, you don't seem to have met him in person yet. Anyway, it's my best brother. Kenneth sat down at his desk and felt a headache as he looked at what was written on the paper.
"Best brother...... Marcas repeated meaninglessly, a hint of strangeness flashing in his eyes, but quickly reverted to his original appearance and said to Kenneth, "those two guys are lying." ”
Kenneth looked up and said in surprise, "Lying? Those two seniors, you say? ”
Marcas nodded, and said with disdain: "These two people are people who can't lie at a glance, and they can know it at a glance when they see their eye movements." Also, since they were all drunk at the time, how could they even see the gems on their wands? ”
"So...... Mick didn't sneak up on them? Kenneth's eyes lit up, but then a new question arose, "So what are they trying to do?" Is it trying to disadvantage Mick? ”
Marcus saw that Kenneth looked unkind, but fanned the flames and said, "It is estimated that your brother did something good to provoke those two nobles." Tsk, a viscount, a marquis, it's not easy to do. ”
"No matter what kind of nobleman he is, if he wants to harm my brother, then he has to ask me! Let's go now. With that, Kenneth got up and walked out the door.
Marcus followed excitedly, and after a few days of not doing anything, he asked Kenneth, "Shall we teach those two noble children a lesson now?" ”
I saw Kenneth give Marcus a blank look and said, "Of course I'm going to find Mick to understand the situation, are you stupid?" ”
