Chapter 201: Not salty, not light
After I said this, there was not a single person around me who was not shocked. Norman and France did not move again, and looked at me in a daze, as if they could not understand what I was saying.
“……”
Of course, the most surprising of all was Granmar - she didn't really want to have a complete showdown with me, but just wanted to beat me up as lightly as she did - in passing. She didn't expect that I would not hesitate to give her no face at all in front of these girls. The reaction was so fierce, and the counterattack was so tough.
"Your Excellency! Roberia is a Frenchman, and it is impossible for him to join the Norman army in any case! Granmar argued.
"No, no, no, you're mistaken." I said: "Roberia is neither French nor ethnically French - she was born in Romania, her father is Italian, and her mother is of local Gypsy ethnicity. In every way, it has nothing to do with the French Republic...... Well, maybe a little hostile relationship? ”
"But—" Granmar became more and more flustered when she heard me say this, and tried to refute it, but could not think of anything to refute it. She doesn't take advantage of the reason. And if it were an ordinary person, then she could have raised the banner of the French government to scare people. But behind me was the Norman Empire, a terrible country that France did not want to provoke......
"Huh? Roberia is not French. On the side, Erica exclaimed stupidly, and was immediately stopped by Kulishnu:
"Don't talk, be quiet, Erica!" Kokulico, on the other hand, was thoughtful and a little jealous—if not French, but not she. But I never told her anything about Valhalla.
"General, there may be some ......"
Behind me, Rainey didn't know what he was thinking. And Maria was sighing, thinking that I was a little emotional. The Norman Empire gave me the task of "taking control of the secret forces of France" and not "poaching the secret forces of France".
The Norman Empire's spiritual special forces "Valhalla" did not lack such a manpower of one or two people. Spending a lot of effort to pull Robelia to the Norman Empire is not even the icing on the cake.
On the contrary, for the French government, which lacks members of the spiritual special forces, Roberia is an indispensable talent. She stayed in France and operated as a member of the Chinese Strike Regiment in Paris, and her heart was to the Norman Empire, which could play a much greater role than leaving France and entering the Norman Empire. I slapped Kokuliko before, but in the end I threw her into the Paris Chinese Strike Regiment, and I didn't mention the Valhalla matter, because of this mentality.
"In other words, does this woman have a high status in Wright's mind?" Thinking so in her heart, Maria subconsciously looked at Kokuliko on the other side. Finding that the guy was really unhappy, he couldn't help but smile - it was at this time that Roberia spoke:
"I didn't say yes to Wright, I didn't join Valhalla, I didn't want to go there, Paris is fine."
After saying this, there was a dead silence in the room. It was already a very surprising thing for me to give Robella a head, but Robella didn't appreciate it, and it was even more unexpected to poke me directly. Seeing this scene, Granmar Jedi reversed, and naturally laughed like something. I had an unacceptable expression: "Roberia?!" ”
Hearing me call her by name, Robella didn't answer, took me by the arm, and walked out without saying a word. Before leaving the room, he glared at everyone in the room, and the meaning was clear, whoever eavesdropped on it would die.
Naturally, everyone wanted to listen to the corner, and everyone who did, rightfully not—not because of Roberia's threatening eyes. But after we left, Rainey stood at the door without saying a word, with an expression of "whoever goes past will die".
"Why do you say that?"
Outside the command room, Robella and I got on the elevator with a tacit understanding, and went to the third basement floor, which was originally an abandoned warehouse, but now occupied by her, and temporarily became her bedroom. That's what I asked after that.
"Ah, because you really didn't tell me anything about Valhalla or anything like that before this." Roberia said.
"But, but—"
Before I could say anything, Robella hugged me and interrupted me: "I, ah, never thought of working in this line of work for too long. She said to me, "I'm not fit for this, just leave the work of a messenger of justice to someone else, and I can do whatever I want." ”
"So what?" I asked.
"So, whether it's Paris or Moscow. Whether it's the Chinese Strike Regiment in Paris, or Valhalla in the Norman Empire. I can't do it for long. I'll get out of here someday - and I know that this kind of secret force will never let people go easily, so a fight is inevitable, isn't it? ”
"I think I get what you mean." I sighed: "If you join the Paris Chinese Strike Regiment, then you will have to face the French government when you defect, and—"
"- And join Valhalla in the Norman Empire, and you will be the one you will have to face when you defect." Robella said, "I don't want to fight you, Wright. Whether you kill me, or I kill you. I don't like this kind of tragic ending. That's why I chose to join the Paris Chinese Strike Regiment. ”
After saying this, Robella paused again, then went on to say, "I'm sorry, thank you. ”
It sounds like a confession of rejection.
"I understand......" Speaking of this, I smiled bitterly: "Really, this thing is ...... trouble"
At the same time, in the command room. Maria, who reacted to the incident between me and Robella, couldn't help but shudder.
"Got it! He had known for a long time that the woman would refuse his olive branch. He had known for a long time that she would not join Valhalla, and would remain in the Paris Battalion. That's why he said that on purpose. He was benevolent, he was ingratiatory, and he could show that Robella that the Paris Strike Regiment was unreliable. In this way, that Robella accepted his affection, and naturally moved closer to him in the future. The mission given by the Empire is accomplished! ”
This inference of the cause did frighten Maria, and what made her feel even more sad was that looking at the people around her, Rainey's face was expressionless, and Granmar was elated and thought that he had won. Erica and Kulicino were bewildered by what to do—neither of them realized that it was my work. For a while, Maria only felt a chill down her spine, and unconsciously whispered to herself:
"Wright. Baldwin, KGB, Raven ......"
