Chapter 46: Sneaking Back
The canal runs from south to north through the academy city, and the water gate of the academy city is located in the northwest and southwest sections of the city wall, respectively, and is a necessary checkpoint for checking the entry and exit of ships.
Stone fences are placed underwater to prevent people from diving into the city, and there are boats passing by on the water, and it is likely that their heads will be smashed by the bottom of the sailboat
Except for the madman who didn't want to die, no one would want to sneak into College City through the Water Gate.
Therefore, the inspectors at the water gate generally only board the ship to inspect the water, and rarely inspect the surface of the water, which gives someone an opportunity to take advantage of it.
On a passenger ship, two punitive knights in charge of security stood on the side of the ship and chatted.
"Tut-tut, these rats of the Salga Empire have taken refuge in a safe place with their women's wealth. Look at all of them. ”
"Brother, don't worry, it's earned by other people's ancestors, if you don't accept it, you can also earn one for your son to see."
"We serve His Majesty the Holy See until we are thirty years old, and then we can get married. Now I am only twenty-six, where did I come from? ”
"There will be, there will be. After the age of thirty, you will reach the age of retirement, won't you be able to go back to your hometown and get married? I'll be fine if I stay up for another year. ”
"That's right!" The younger Knight of Punishment said. "Brother, let's change shifts with the other two tomorrow morning, where are we going to have fun this morning?"
"Let's fish, now the fish have been raising fat for three seasons, and it is the fattest time. Tomorrow morning, let's grab the bait and go fishing. Absolutely fruitful. ”
"Okay." The young retribution knight replied, and suddenly, he looked over the river.
"What's wrong?" The older one also looked out towards the river, but found nothing.
"I just got a faint glimpse of a very large fish."
"How big?"
"It looks about the size of a human being, and it swims very fast."
"It's going to be nonsense. No matter how big the fish in this canal is, it is not as big as a man, and it is not a fish in the sea. ”
"But I did."
"Well, don't be cranky. No matter how big the fish is, if it is not caught, it is equal to nothing. ”
The young retributive knight scratched his hair, and he didn't think much of it. So the two talked about other topics, such as the little riot the night before, the situation in the mainland, and the fact that the women in that part of the mainland were more beautiful.
Twenty minutes later, at the bottom of the bridge somewhere in the canal that crosses College City, a figure in a white robe and a white wool yarmulka hat flashed out, it was Mr. Harold Vasa who had sneaked back to College City from the canal.
Harold walked out of the bridge, and instead of going home first, he turned left and right in the city for a while, walked through five main streets and three alleys, and finally found a tavern in a remote alley.
Harold knocked on the wooden door of the tavern and did not respond.
So he tore a piece of paper from the message book next to the wooden door, wrote a few words quickly, and shoved the paper through the crack in the top of the door.
Then he left the place and walked in the direction of his home.
Harold walked around the street from the window of his house, and while no one was around, he quickly climbed through the window into the second-floor room.
He immediately noticed that his room had been touched, and that was normal. The Knights must have come in and investigated their room.
But strangely, Harold heard movement downstairs, and it was clearly a human noise.
"Could it be that the inquisitor of the Knights of Discipline is squatting? It doesn't make sense. Harold muttered to himself.
He walked lightly downstairs and peeked into the living room at the top of the stairs.
He saw the maroon-haired girl tidying up the living room for herself, taking the plates and cutlery from the dining table into the kitchen and scrubbing them.
Humming an unnamed ditty, Edith Popesle rolled up her sleeves and washed the dishes in Harold's house.
This girl is a little immature, and at first glance she looks like she has never done housework.
But she is still serious, and she can brush a plate for a long time.
Harold didn't say a word, he stood at the top of the stairs and watched her quietly.
After a while, Edith washed the dishes and put them in the closet.
She exhaled, picked up the mop again, and began to mop the floor, still humming the unknown tune as she mopped.
After a long pause, Edith looked up, she wanted to wipe her sweat, but she saw a white figure standing on the stairs.
She was about to exclaim and look up, but she saw Harold's face that was hard to forget at first glance.
"You..... When did you come back? ”
"Just came back."
She immediately realized that Harold must have seen what she was doing, and immediately changed to a rude tone: "Didn't you let us be maids at that time?" I'll show you this time! How much is left of that time we owe you? ”
Edith didn't ask where Harold had gone, she had a gut feeling that this guy was going to fool around, and now that everyone else was back, there was nothing else to worry about.
Harold raised his eyebrows, and he secretly laughed in his heart: "The stupid girl kicked the ball to me, I don't care at all, but she cares." ”
Thinking of this, Harold smiled: "Just practice the fighting skills I taught you that day, otherwise you will be easily defeated in the future, and if you ask who taught you the skills, then I will definitely be embarrassed." ”
"Hmph, I've practiced hard every day. Don't underestimate us, the person who can beat you one day in the future will definitely be us. ”
"Let's get the housework done first!" Harold said, picking up his steps and walking downstairs.
Harold walked over to Edith and took the mop and placed it in the corner. Then he took off his robe.
"This white robe is so much like what a woman wears. I'm not used to wearing it, so I'll give it to you. Harold shoved the robe into Edith's hand.
Edith was stunned, she was about to refuse.
Harold waved his hand, and he said, "The time when I demolished your society in the past was indeed my malicious intention, but it's been a long time, now let's reconcile." Don't talk about it again, and don't look at each other all day. ”
After hearing this, looking at Harold's serious expression, Edith involuntarily nodded slightly, she bit her lower lip, and was about to say something.
At this time, there was a hurried knock and shouting at the entrance:
"Mr. Harold Vasa, are you back?"
"Let's go open the door." Edith said, shoveling the woolen robe back into Harold's hand. I ran to the door as if I was running for my life.
The door opened, and several men in sheriff's clothes were standing in the doorway.
"You're Harold Vasa?" A sheriff asked Edith, and then he saw Edith's tall breasts and frowned slightly, "Are you?" ”
At this time, Harold came out of the room and stood in front of Edith, and he smiled and said, "Mr. Sheriff, I am Harold Vasa. The one behind me is my classmate, not anyone else. ”
Seeing Harold Vasa's beautiful face and perfectly flat chest, the sheriffs looked at each other, and they knew that the Lord had returned.
