19 Travel Planning

"I'm sorry, Miss Akayi, it was our negligence that caused this, and we'll keep an eye on these spies and agents on the way in and out of town." At dinner, Viscount Lee sincerely apologized to Erin, who understood that if it hadn't been for Milo's timely appearance, Irene's fate would have changed dramatically.

Of course, Erin understood that there was no responsibility for the Viscount and others in this matter, and responded very politely, thinking that it was her lack of low-key that caused the agents to know that they were in Windswept Town.

The atmosphere of dinner was still cheerful, and it was not affected by the incident of Irene.

"Actually, you've done a good job of protecting it." Wind Chime said that she also made a rare appearance at the dinner table, still not eating. "Actually, I've been watching the whole thing, and I was going to come to the rescue, but Entekoman was one step ahead of me - you have noticed those people for a long time."

Erin suddenly remembered that Milo did say something in the tone of a spy, and realized that Milo might have been next to the incident site a long time ago.

"I noticed them when they entered town, and I sneaked after them, just in case." Milo said he didn't show any pride or pride, eating as if nothing had happened.

"You'll have to be careful, Milo. I've heard that the Spreet Empire is still posting your wanted notice, and these agents may take you and Erin captive. Nightfinch cautiously reminded Milo.

The Viscount interjected: "Actually, don't worry about Milo, when Milo was just wanted, there were no spies infiltrating Fengxing Town. I've long been informed that the Empire's attitude towards Milo is one to turn a blind eye. But Miss Akayi is different this time, she was framed by someone to assassinate Ruisen, which will naturally attract the attention of many people. ”

"They're definitely coming back, maybe there's more people, or even the army coming straight over." Milo said.

Erin shuddered.

"Don't worry, Miss Akayi, you won't be in danger in three days, it will take at least three days for them to go back to report, reorganize the manpower, and come back, and we'll figure out a way for you in the meantime."

"I'm sure you'll be fine," said Wind Chime, "so that I can leave with peace of mind." ”

Everyone looked at the wind chimes together.

"No...... Stay a few more days? Nightfinch said that she wished the wind chimes would have lasted longer, but her face was full of helplessness.

"Are you leaving again? Or hope you can stay here forever. The viscount also said with regret on his face.

Erin didn't dare to speak, she just stared at the wind chime blankly, and she naturally didn't want the wind chime to leave.

"Don't worry, Erin, they can be trusted, and you're safe even without me. Just as today I turned into a bird watching you from the house, didn't you also succeed in being saved. Wind Chimes reassures Erin that she doesn't want Erin to feel scared and helpless.

"Since you are determined to leave, we must also do our best to be a landlord......," said Milo, who was grateful for the life-saving grace he and the town had been, though his attitude had always been cold.

Wind Chimes smiled and waved their hands to show that they didn't need to be polite.

"Actually, we still have something to ask for." Milo said, and looked at Viscount Lee, motioning for him to say it was more appropriate.

"You can also see that more and more people are coming and going to the town of Wind, and the number of people settling here is increasing, and we wanted to build a library to meet the reading needs of the inhabitants," said the Viscount to the wind chime. We also considered asking merchants to buy some for us, but the profit margin of books was too low, and there were almost no merchants to do it, and even if we paid more, they would not do the book business. So we want you to help us figure out how we can get a lot of books. ”

Wind Chime nodded slightly, and responded, "I know what you mean, I can indeed use teleportation magic to bring books, but I'm not good at collecting a lot of books. And I'm not leaving by teleportation magic, but by boat. ”

"Where are you going? Can't use teleportation magic? Nightfinch asked in surprise.

"It's not a special place, it's just that I can't teleport to places I haven't been, but ......" Wind Chime said again, "Forget it, it's nothing." ”

"Take a boat to Dragon?" Erin asked, and the wind chimes waved her hand in disapproval, apparently not wanting to reveal her itinerary.

"Oops, as soon as Dragon is mentioned...... Viscount suddenly remembered something, took out a crumpled letter from his pocket, and handed it to Milo, "Milo, this is news from Dragon, sent this morning, the person you are looking for has a letter." ”

Milo took the letter and thanked him, but did not open it.

"Then again, Miss Akayi," said the viscount, turning to Erin, "would you like to go to the Dragon side and take shelter from the limelight?" ”

"Sheltered from the limelight?" Erin felt strange, but considering that she had just been targeted by the Empire's agents, the Viscount's proposal was still very reasonable.

The Viscount then explained, "yes, if you leave Windrun for a while, and then come back when people lose their enthusiasm for Risson's affairs, I don't think those agents will venture here to arrest you again." If you think going to Dragon is too hard, you can also head east to Aube ......"

Erin didn't know what to decide, she looked at the wind chimes, who smiled and motioned for her to decide.

"About books," Wind Chime continued the conversation and gave Erin time to think, "I can't help, but you can go to the administrator of Alex City Library, they can solve your problem of collecting books." "Alex City is on the west coast of the Aube Empire, where the library has a long history and a rich collection of books.

"Just need to find the librarian? Can one person solve it? The viscount asked, puzzled, and the others looked puzzled.

"One person, you can solve it." Wind Chime confidently replied, "It's better to be a retired administrator, your difficulties are just a gesture for him." If this one person is willing to help you, you have a library. ”

Several people at the dinner table looked at each other, unable to believe the words of the wind chime, but according to more bizarre experiences before, the man who was full of mysteries should be true.

Everyone wanted to continue asking, but a person who suddenly appeared in the dining hall attracted everyone's attention-

"I'm back, Obey's side is a mess!" The hearty and rugged voice came from Parrett Chevalier.

"Oh, Master Magician, you're here...... Ahh Parrett saw the wind chimes, said excitedly, and strode to the table and sat down, and the servant next to him immediately served the meal.

Without waiting for others to respond, Parrett buried his head in eating, and it could be seen that he had been hungry for a long time, and he ate half of the food in a few bites, and swallowed hard before raising his head. That's when he noticed Erin, someone he didn't know.

"Yo, where did you come from such a lovely person!" He unabashedly admired Irene's beauty.

Erin was about to introduce herself, but the viscount spoke first: "Parrett, why do you say that Aube is messed up?" ”

"Don't mention it," Parrett said, putting down the bowl in his hand, "the state can't afford to do anything without money." Many cities have begun to barter, and there is simply not enough cash to circulate. People don't get money, jobs are hard to find, and security is poor. ”

"Sure enough," the viscount seemed to know, "it seems that after the crisis, the amount of gold and silver stored in Aube cannot meet the circulation of money, and the royal family does not have enough cash in their hands to do things...... So what's the situation like now? ”

Parrett replied, "On the way here, I met several groups of bandits and robbers, and they were all dressed as original herdsmen. With that, he began to eat again.

"Miss Akayi, it seems that Obey can't go at the moment, and you should give priority to going to Dragon to avoid the limelight?"

Erin hesitated, and it seemed that there was really no better option at the moment, and she nodded in agreement.

"That's good." The viscount said, and then he turned to the people, "Tonight everyone has a good rest, and tomorrow or the day after tomorrow everyone will set off separately." ”

"Do I want it too?" Parrett heard it and put the bowl down again.

"Yes," replied the viscount, "but this time not an escort, but a holiday for you." You go to Alex City in Aube and help us find someone. ”

"Looking for someone? Then I'm doing it! Parrett said excitedly.

……

After dinner, the originally lively dining hall was much emptied, leaving only Viscount Li and Erin.

"I suggest you don't go to the warehouse tomorrow to keep accounts, and get some rest. The day after tomorrow there is a merchant ship to Dragon, and you take this ship to Dragon, and it happens that Milo is on the same road as you, and I will ask him to protect you. So the viscount suggested.

"Milo Enteman? He also went to Dragon? Erin asked.

"Yes, he's going too. He has been inquiring about the whereabouts of some people for more than two years, and today finally came to the news. I'll let him arrange his work and set off with you the day after tomorrow...... Oh yes, I'll also have Nightsparrow and Snow Dog go with you, so you can have an extra female companion and less trouble. ”

Once again, Erin was touched by the Viscount's enthusiasm, and if she was to be left alone with Milo, she would be a little uncomfortable.

"Thank you very much, Viscount."

At the same time, Milo was reading the letter that the viscount had handed him, which was very brief:

"It has been identified that Heidi Triester's family is on the island of Il in Dragung, including Heidi's father, mother and brother."

More than two years ago, Melo wanted to go to Dragon to find Heidi's family, but since there were many islands in Dragon and it was too time-consuming to search for him island by island, the Viscount suggested that he use the merchant as a sea coachman to find out for him and search for people related to Heidi Triist, which would save him a lot of time and energy. Although it was also looking for a needle in a haystack, two years later, there is finally a response.

“…… Finally, I found ...... I'll go see their ...... on your behalf."
