Chapter Seventy-Eight: Trouble Comes
The so-called aristocracy, compared with those explosive rich families, is different from social status, but also in the condensed internal and external cultivation, as well as decent etiquette.

Outside the public security office, a luxurious carriage slowly stopped. A fat girl jumped down from it and walked straight to the two guards standing straight in front of the door.
"Miss, you are not allowed to enter here."
The two guards gave a gesture of obscurity as they stretched out their arms to block them. However, Alice walked straight to the two of them, and seeing that no one was paying attention, she stuffed the four gold coins in her hand into their hands, and then asked, "Sir, may I ask if any knights were caught in just now?" ā
The two guards with wooden expressions seemed to have some light on their faces the moment they saw the gold coin, but when they heard Alice's question, they couldn't help but become alert, looked her up and down, and asked suspiciously, "Who are you?" ā
The fat girl explained to the two guards and stuffed two more gold coins into the past. One of the guards frowned at the other and said, "Maybe we can ask the sheriff." ā

A few minutes later, when Anne entered the hall accompanied by Alice, Davidson got up from his seat and bowed his head slightly with his right hand across his chest, and Anne returned the favor in an aristocratic manner.
Different from the dress she had just dressed in front of the templar, Anne had changed into a blue dress that looked calm and restrained, and a beautiful top hat hung from black tulle on her head, elegant and atmospheric.
The aristocratic lady always needs to have a servant to follow around. Although she was able to fool her past as a "noble lady who was not overly formal and adventurous" on the Templar side, the situation is different now, so she can only temporarily find Alice to make a cameo as Annie's lazy maid.
Davidson asked Anne to sit down with a chair, but the aristocratic lady spoke up.
"Honorable Knight, I think your subordinates must have misunderstood us." Anne said, "Knight Bols used to be a knight of my father, Viscount Shmantik, and this time he came out with us to protect my safety, that's all. ā
Davidson couldn't help but be a little surprised at this time. There is no doubt that this aristocratic lady not only has a good image and temperament, but also is well-educated, and her every move is in line with the norms of the nobility. But as soon as the words came out, there was a sharp aura, and there was no transition before he said what he meant.
Such aristocratic ladies are rare.
"If I can figure out a few things, I might be able to agree to your request." Davidson said, "Excuse me, Miss, is Huang Yancheng a city in your place?" ā
"No, there is no such city in the Free Federation of Heim."
"That's weird." Davidson's eyes narrowed slightly, and that skeptical gaze appeared again, "But just now this knight told me that he came from a place called Huangyan City, and his father was the lord of the city there. Moreover, he said that Huang Yancheng does not belong to our world. ā
That's the truth, Anne thought. But in Atlantis, no matter who is in this small team, they must bury their experiences in the original plane in their hearts, just as they did not mention Atlantis when they were in the original plane.
When the real becomes false, the fake naturally becomes true.
"There's no doubt that Bols is a very good knight and would want to keep our identities secret in such a situation." Anne smiled, "No wonder my father told me when I left Heim that he was relieved as long as Bols followed me. ā
The meaning of the last sentence was ambiguous, but Davidson knew that he shouldn't ask any more questions on the subject, so he thought for a moment and said, "So Miss Shmantic, is there anyone who can prove your identity?" ā
"Bishop Harvey can attest to that."
Davidson was silent for a moment. Over the years, although the Templar and the Principality's security department Akari have been working together, they are actually working separately, otherwise there would not have been an incident of friction between the two sides while patrolling.
So the sheriff didn't plan to go to Bishop Harvey to confirm the matter, but just made a routine question. Probably thinking that his subordinates' actions were a little reckless, Davidson very politely retained this young lady, who looked more like a nobleman than a nobleman: "If I can, I hope that you and the Bols knight will come to me, because Ontario has not been very peaceful lately." The Night Race had been dispatched en masse a few days ago, and it seemed that they were planning to carry out a large-scale attack. ā
Actually, it was just a little drill designed by Piger, Anne thought. Out of politeness, she thanked Davidson and then declined Davidson's kindness.
It was supposed to be a smooth trip. Because Anne was very neat and neat, and her clever mind, she did not give birth to any unnecessary branches because of this.
But as it happened, when several people came out of the security office and were about to board the car to leave, they suddenly found that the old paladin Herbert was passing not far away.
The old guy apparently spotted them too. As one of the oldest clergy members in the Duchy, Herbert's eyes were sunken and his face was wrinkled, so it was impossible to see what his expression was.
Although there was a feeling of meeting on a narrow road, Anne did not seem very flustered, and bowed her head slightly as a greeting from afar. But the old paladin, though he saw this, turned around and left as if he didn't know them at all.
"Is this old man stalking us?" Alice nervously asked, "I noticed today that he was staring at you all the time." Oh my God, is this old guy plotting against you? ā
I have to say that the water tank girl's thinking is still relatively open, but the impact of this open thinking is to make the conclusion of things develop in an unreliable direction.
The carriage galloped forward, but Anne, who was sitting in the carriage, felt a little uneasy. Herbert's skeptical eyes always flashed in her mind, as if the other party had seen through something.
"Stop!"
Anne stepped out of the carriage, looked around, and went straight to a little man in tattered clothes in the corner. She thought it was an orphan, but when she got closer, she realized that it was a down-and-out dwarf, but it didn't matter.
The dwarf's cheeks were covered with a thick beard, which hid his face tightly, revealing only a pair of small eyes, and looked at the angel-like woman in front of him with a sneer.
