Chapter 40: News
"I see, thank you for your message. "Austin is still not far away.
Alvinley didn't care, and continued: "Do you still have a job now?"
Austin spread his hands helplessly and said, "I want to go home, but the situation like this is ...... I don't want to run back in the middle of the night. ”
"If you don't mind, I can drive you home, I remember I dropped by with you. Alvinley said.
Austin's smiling face was draped in a layer of frost and said, "I don't remember telling you my home address." ”
Alvinley shrugged his shoulders indifferently and said, "I'm from the archives registry, although I am a civil servant, but I still have some privileges, such as looking through my friend's file while the above is not paying attention." Of course, some people who are not very friendly can also access the files. ”
Austin sensed that Alvinley had something to say, nodded his head, and his face looked a little better. Two streets around the corner of Orwenlai, there are a number of small steam cars parked in a large open space. This all-steam-powered car uses an energy supply principle similar to that of a field armored vehicle, and the technology that should be applied on the battlefield is used for enjoyment, making the price of steam cars skyrocket.
"I didn't expect His Excellency Orwenley to enjoy it. Austin said with some surprise when he saw Alwenley open the door of a steam car and expertly light the fire.
Alvinley looked at Austin with deep meaning and said, "It's not just people who go to war who can make extra money, we can too." As long as there are people, there is a way, isn't it?"
Austin didn't speak, but lowered his head and slipped into the back seat, feeling a little distracted by the leather seat.
"Your Excellency Austin, can you come to the front?" the somewhat self-acquainted Alwenley finally began to become helpless, "you know I have something to say to you." ”
Although Austin doesn't have much affection for people who check his information privately, since he is a member of the Youth Guardian Army, and he is nominally a member of that club, he still has to give basic face.
Austin flashed to the front seat, and Alvinlay only felt that there was a flower in front of him, and there was one more person beside him, and he didn't know how Austin moved in the small space in the car.
"Your strength is truly amazing," Alwinley complimented, looking at Austin's expressionless face, "I'm sorry for investigating you privately, but I also did it after you joined the Youth Guard, you can interpret it as a ...... Out of concern for a friend. ”
Austin nodded and said, "Aren't you going to send me back? It's already late at night, and I'm afraid that if it's too late, I'll disturb my family's rest." ”
Alvinley felt the stiff kindness in his words, and finally breathed a sigh of relief, and stepped on the accelerator, and the steam car let out a faint roar, and the headlights pierced the endless night, and drove towards Melbourne Street. As if he couldn't stand the dreary atmosphere, Orwenley had to get down to business.
"Well, your patience makes me ...... Admiration. That's right, the people who have extracted your file during this time are not only Lord von Lantlin and those old antiques from the Heraldic Bureau, but also the people of the Elint family. Every time the heraldic bureau arrived, they followed, and your promotion to baron was put on hold. Recently, the Heraldic Bureau couldn't stand the pressure of Lord Von Lantlin, so it was about to issue an official notice. After all, the director now gives more and more power to Lord Feng Lantlin, and the position of deputy director is nine out of ten, and the heraldic bureau is not very good at suppressing the adult's cronies. ”
"The Ellint Family....... What is it? Have you had a holiday with me? Someone who killed them?" Austin began to look confused. As Von Lantlin's loyal dog, there are too many families offended, and Elint should not be too big a surname, so he has no impression.
Alvinley looked at Austin a little speechlessly, and said, "Do you remember that before you came, there was an adjutant next to Lord von Lantlin whose surname was Elint? Later, you became more and more favored by Lord von Lantling, and that adjutant was placed in the combat unit below, and now he has just reached the fourth rank and serves as an executive officer in the second department." ”
Alvinlay was so helpless that he didn't even bother to use the circumstances.
Austin is an outlier in the Operations Department, and most of the rest are still arranged according to the level of the Division, and each Division is held by the Chief Executive Officer, usually a third- or fourth-order person.
Although there is not much difference between the rank of the adjutant and the executive officer of the execution officer, and the executive officer has at least more than 100 people under the transfer authority, the former follows Von Lantrin and has a much greater chance than an ordinary executive officer.
Austin was a little stunned, but continued to ask, "The Irent family...... It shouldn't be a big family, right? That can also affect the judgment of the heraldic board?"
Alvinley smiled wryly, "You really don't know anything about politics...... The Ellint family is not very powerful, but the more this kind of family is not up and down, the more important it is to opportunities. Your appearance has invisibly suppressed the Ellint family greatly, at least you have lost the opportunity to be by Lord von Lantlin's side, which can be regarded as a lot of hatred. Now their revenge on you is considered to be harmful to others and not to themselves, but it is also within reasonable limits. ”
"Hmmm......"
"As for the means...... Do you think they're pressuring or bribing? Fuck it, they're always questioning your identity, which is the right of every nobleman to be promoted. Your material is perfect, but if you look carefully, you will always find a loophole. Your violations in the operation are not too serious..... your blank period five years ago, although Lord von Lantlin had the intention to make up for it, but the fake is always fake, isn't it?"
Alvinlay's expression was even more playful.
Austin's mind sank, the people in the registry seemed to be inconspicuous, but the information he had access to was of great use to him, even deadly. The previous falsification of information can still be suppressed by Von Lantrin, and it is even difficult to be detected, but the bloody business he did before, even if there is no "Bloody October" incident, the rest can bring him to the point of no return.
