"Pretending to be a member of the kingdom's military is a capital offense, and you are going to send him to the gallows?"

Miss Lena Barros swallowed a piece of cake and reached out to wipe the dust from her lips and continued. Pen~Fun~Pavilion www.biquge.info The expression on her face was indifferent, but the eyelashes blinking quickly revealed a trace of her nervousness and uneasiness.

If, the guy upstairs is really a fake, Lena thinks of what happened in the past few days, and her heart is a little more apprehensive. The two don't spend much time together, but even if the other party is not the real hero of the Northlands, she admits that that man has something that makes her heart move.

Next to her, Qi Ya stuffed a few fried small round cakes into her mouth, her cheeks were swollen, chewed hard, and patted her little belly. Then she sat down in her chair and looked at Lena with a smile, and then at her brother, Marcuro Escud.

She and Marcuro are half-siblings, and in terms of blood, Kia is even more noble than Macuro. Her mother was the wife of Fino Escud, Marquis of Afron, a young lady from another noble family. Unlike Macuro's light brown hair color similar to Xinmai, which is mixed with civilian blood, she has beautiful blonde hair, and her delicate facial features are a perfect combination of her mother's and Escud family's fine bloodlines, although she has not fully grown at this age, but I have to admit that Miss Kia is a real beauty embryo.

Kia sat down in her chair and lifted her slender legs in white stockings and began to shake them gently. When she had swallowed her food slowly, she took a sip of freshly squeezed turquoise juice. She glanced up at the long table, where the snacks in front of the other two barely touched.

"According to the letter and rules of the Code, I really should have done that."

After a deep groan, Marcuro smiled, and he saw Miss Lena's knife and fork slip onto the plate with a crisp "bang" - the red-haired girl, though she had made the worst assumptions in her head, surprised her by the fact that these things came out of Macuro's mouth.

"Looks like little Lena cares about that kid."

Marcuro stood up from the long table, his eyes looking out of the window—the world outside the window was a rolling hill, green with a hint of autumn yellow, his eyes squinting when he collided with the afternoon sun:

"That guy came from an unknown source, but I don't think it's possible to say that there is malice towards the Escud family. I need to thank him for what happened in the mines, but for his sake, it all cancels each other out. ”

"So, you've decided to pardon him for impersonating a military officer?"

Lena Barros was relieved to hear what Macuro had said, but she still couldn't believe it, and asked.

"An interesting guy with a lot of good quality. Why not? The corpses on the gallows were of no value to the Escud family. ”

Marcuro stood in front of the window and turned around, the golden sunlight set off his back, and there was a rare look of excitement and expectation on his handsome face, "Sword skills!" I really didn't expect that a character with such excellent sword skills would suddenly appear. ”

……

At the Ampton Mine, Miss Ladia has been following Scott and Levine, who go out on a hunting day, to every corner of the neighborhood. The harvest was good, and soon after the morning mist and dew had cleared, they had caught a full-grown wild deer, a medium-sized male boar, and three or four hares in the bushes of the mountain forest, and the three of them, carrying heavy prey, decided to call it a day—there were only about thirty men in the whole bandits, and the meat was enough to eat for several days.

In order to keep the food fresh, the robbers did not have the habit of hoarding too much meat except in the winter - Scott couldn't help but feel a pang of hatred when he thought of the smell and texture of the pile of bacon in the storage room. Whenever that food appeared in the cafeteria, he felt the urge to go on a hunger strike.

Fortunately, the bandits have realized that there are not many animals to hunt nearby, and they are no longer hunting as aggressively as they did when they first came to the mines, as the bandit leader Glo once said that overhunting is not sustainable and contrary to the principle of harmony between man and nature......

The trio returned to the mines, handed over their prey to Old York, the head chef of the cafeteria, and returned to the gravel-paved paths in the middle of the mines. It was a gentle slope along which there were several small scattered houses on the side of the hill wall, which was the residence of the bandits.

The sky was clear, and in front of the small house, several young men were washing their clothes—the sad thing about a single dog was that all the evil household activities had to be done by themselves. Seeing Miss Radia, Scott, and Levine coming, the members of the bandit group looked up and greeted each other.

After a few pleasantries, Lady's eyes fell on something.

In front of a small house, a round metal pipe, slightly thicker than a finger, was erected against the wall, and there was a knob on it, as if the water flowed out of the pipe with a slight force of two fingers. She watched as the young man skilfully operated, and in a few moments filled the wooden basin with water.

She had seen it more than once in the mines, and had used it many times - but when she saw it again, the curiosity she had buried in her heart resurfaced.

"This thing is what Mr. Glo calls 'tap water.'"

Miss Radia thought to herself. In the first few days of coming to the Ampton Mine, she had been exposed to and used these things under the guidance of the bandit leader, and after observing and experiencing them from beginning to end, she was already a little surprised and curious in her heart.

It's a pity that Glo didn't answer her questions, and once the bandit leader got up on the topic of "Genting City", he talked about it left and right, which made her a little depressed - but according to her careful observation and comparison, these things in the Ampton mine and the water pipeline in Genting City were completely different from the infrastructure point of view. Here, she didn't find the magic hub that powered her, nor did she see the intricate control system.

Could it be the improvement and optimization of the alchemy process?

It is possible. The mysterious Mr. Glo seems to be familiar with engineering alchemy, and seems to know a lot of very advanced knowledge.

Miss Ladia would have been amazed if she hadn't seen such a knowledgeable young man as a bandit in the mountains of Nogo—she knew very well how much the "running water" facility was about, and that it had been achieved with simple plumbing and earthwork, and that if the teacher had seen it, he might have paid a large sum of gold to buy the blueprints for it.

What's the mystery here?

Radia had also consulted with Scott, Oliver, and the rest of the bandit gang - but none of them could answer accurately, and they always shook their heads and blamed the bandit leader for the construction of the water system.

But the man who was the main owner was not there, and Miss Radia bent her little finger and counted slightly, only to find that the bandit leader had been gone for almost half a month.
