Chapter 56: Ministers, Kings, and Generals
Only the desk and the study desk were lit with a candle in the headmaster's office, the room was very dim, Carl was sleeping quietly, the blinds were closed, Vincent and Alver couldn't see what was going on outside, the headmaster should have deliberately shifted the place to talk to the horse chicken lizard, and it was quiet outside the office.
"As for the teleportation location, it does make a little bit of sense, but there is no need for the Horse Chicken Lizard to hurt Carl and then send him over on purpose, and besides, Mr. Emerson is not injured. Vincent comforted Alver, "If it's hostile, I don't know, my lord, the three of us must have been playing cards on the edge of the River Styx to pass the time and wait for the river crossing." ”
"I've always felt like something was wrong," Alver looked at Carl, "how about we take a sneak peek in the yard?"
"Don't drag me if the old man finds out!" said Vincent, but he was the first to open the shutters and lie down on the window to look out.
There was really no one outside the window, at least not in the office area.
"Just wait for Carl to wake up," Alver sat back on the floor beside Carl, "I might be a little anxious." ”
"We've been so nervous about what has happened these days," Vinson said with a large font on the floor, "I thought it was just a big deal when I was growing up to get justice for my parents, and running around every morning, but now it's obviously not like that. ”
Alver felt that his head was about to explode, and he inexplicably recalled his dreams and hallucinations near the picture, and in order to prevent his mood from getting worse, he could only find a random sentence and say, "I want to eat sugar." ”
"Huh?" Vincent, a little confused by Alver's headless words, "Are you hungry?"
"If you think it's hard, you'll want to eat candy," Alfer was lying on the floor, "I've had a hard time these days." ”
"I've worked hard, too, but I don't think there must be any sugar in the principal's office, and the old man doesn't look like a candy man. Vincent said seriously.
Intending to change the subject to lightheartedness, Alver asked Vincent, "I think Lady Milan looks like a candy eater." ”
"If she has sugar, I'll help you get it later. Vincent said with a hippie smile, "But I have to be very lucky to do it." Vincent rolled over and lay on his side facing Elver, "I'm a little sleepy. ”
"I've got a little," said Elver, "and we'll get Carl into the secret passage behind the bookshelf, and sleep there, in case there's something to run." ”
Vincent quickly got up, the mahogany rocking chair was very heavy, Vincent tried it, and felt that it must be useless for two people to lift, so he said to Alver: "This thing is too heavy, I'll push you and drag it in, and get it in with the rocking chair, so that he can sleep more comfortably." ”
At first, the two of them cautiously went to get the rocking chair, but after the rocking chair made many harsh rubbing sounds against the floor and Carl did not respond, the two simply pushed and dragged directly into the secret passage, until they were close to the locked wooden door in the secret passage, and Alfer inserted the key given by the principal into the lock hole, but did not unscrew the lock.
When Headmaster Krent entered the passage, he saw Vincent and Elph sandwiching Carl between them in the passage, and they each fell asleep against the wall of the passage, while Alfer tilted his head with his face tilted and his mouth drooling a little.
At the end of the day, they're still kids.
Krent bent down and pushed Vinson with his hand, but Vinson reacted so much that he jumped up almost and almost hit Clent's jaw.
"It's me!" Clen patted Vincent on the shoulder, and Vincent lowered his fist, "I'm scared to death!"
Alfer was also awakened by Vincent's movement, and seeing that it was the headmaster, Alfer wiped his saliva and stood up, he felt his ass be a little numb from the hard ground, "Mr. Headmaster, that horse chicken lizard ......"
"It has no malice. ”
"I know, but why would it know the address of the school?" Alver was still puzzled.
"It recounts itself as long as the person being sent knows the address. "What he narrated didn't match the preface, and although it looked like a lie, it did help Carl, and it could only be done when Carl woke up." ”
"Why is it lying, it's completely unnecessary?" asked Karl.
"It has its reasons, you two better go back to your dorm and sleep, and then get ready to set off to find the chief of Diru Village and lift the curse on Elver. ”
"Where's the chicken lizard?" Alver asked.
The expression on Principal Krent's face was a little distorted, "It's kind of a run away with the students' breakfast today." ”
"What?" Elver didn't understand, "was it afraid of something and ran away?".
"I don't know what it's afraid of, but what we do know is that after we communicated, the kitchen lady said that there was a strange noise in the kitchen, and when I went to check, I found that all the bread that had been prepared was gone, and some of the raw noodles were missing. The corners of Principal Krent's mouth twitched, "Get the chair out, and then carry Carl to sleep, I instructed the housekeeper to prepare a new bed, and the three of you as a team, you can have a room in the future, on the second floor, with a name tag on the door." ”
The two of them were already a little energetic when they came out of the principal's office, the summer morning came very early, the sky was already slightly white, and it was estimated that it would be five o'clock, Vincent carried Carl to the dormitory, all the way in "The old man always has no good face for unreliable things, after all, the horse chicken snake not only sent us back, but also got Carl and Emerson back, although it is indeed not very reliable." ”
Alfer didn't correct Carl's misnoun about the horse chicken lizard, "You shouldn't steal bread anyway, you can't blame the headmaster for being upset." ”
"I don't think it's going to ask the principal for bread and the principal will give it to it. Vincent watched as Alver opened the door to his dorm room, "Come to think of it, it's fun outside of school, though it's troublesome and dangerous. ”
In the hallway on the second floor of the dormitory, Alfer whispered, "If you find it interesting, let's leave the school in the future and go on an adventure together." ”
"We're done with everything we need to do, and I'm going to bring the world's gadgets to Miran, what about you, Alver?"
Alver looked at the name tags on the doors and found his team's room, "I don't know, maybe I'm going to accompany you to pick a gift for Ms. Milan, right?"
"I don't know what Carl wants to do, but the previous dragons were so miserable, and Carl is a dragon...... Why don't we help Carl build a kingdom, it's in Erward, and no country wants it right now. Vincent said jokingly.
"I think it's a good idea," Alver took it a little seriously, "I'll be the minister, and you will be the general." ”
Vincent laughed out loud, waiting for Alfer to open the door of the room, he laughed too loudly, and the dormitory aunt on the second floor rushed out of the room quietly and quickly, slapped Vincent's head on the top, and reprimanded in a suppressed voice, "Give me a little quiet!"
