"Bang Bang Bang"
The door in front of Cornelia was opened from the inside, and Ito, dressed in a silk robe and pajamas, appeared at the door, looking at Cornelia outside the door in surprise and said, "It's you!" Then he leaned sideways and opened the door, "Come in." ”
"Excuse me." Cornelia politely apologized, walked in through the door of the room that Ito Nari had opened, and naturally walked to the side of the sand and sat down.
"I didn't expect you to come to me so late, aren't you afraid that I will do something?" Ito Nari walked over to Conelia and sat down, his legs naturally crossed Erlang's legs, and he smiled teasingly.
"If you want, you did it when you were on the front line in the EU, you don't have to wait until now." Cornelia said very flatly.
"Tell me, find me something." Ito Nari was just joking, of course he knew that Cornelia would not come to the door in the middle of the night for no reason, and asked very directly.
"I want you to help me investigate the truth of a matter." A look of hesitation flashed across Cornelia's face, and then she was replaced by firmness, and said in a resolute tone.
"Oh?" Ito raised an eyebrow and waited for the next step.
"I would like to ask you to help me investigate the real cause of the death of the Fifth Princess of the Empire, who died in an assassination attempt seven and a half years ago, Mariana Vie Britannia, known as Mariana the Shining Mariana." Cornelia clenched her fists unconsciously, and said in a cold and hard tone.
"Didn't you already say she died in an assassination, why do you want me to investigate the cause of death?" A sudden look flashed in Ito's eyes, but he still pretended to be puzzled on the surface and asked.
"Yes. I got the news that Princess Mariana had died in an assassination attempt, but that day was too strange. First Marianna's transfer of the guards of the palace (Aries Palace) was very abnormal, and the feeling was obviously that she was going to meet someone and did not want to be known by others. The second is that the murderer who is claimed to be a terrorist is actually a terrorist...... "Speaking of this, a sneer flashed on Conelia's face, "Being inside the palace, there can be such an outrageous thing as a terrorist breaking in, where would I be as the commander of the guard at that time?" Where does this put the safety of the rest of the royal family? Last but not least. Princess Mariana's predecessor was the sixth-ranked knight of the round table, and her ability to drive a knightmare or her own fighting ability was far above ordinary people, and it was too unreasonable for the palace guards to come to the rescue less than two hundred meters away from the palace. ”
"So I suspect that Princess Mariana, although she died in an assassination, was definitely not the result of a terrorist or a member of the royal family, but at the hands of a mysterious person who could persuade Princess Mariana to leave the guards and meet privately. Only by that person could it be possible for Princess Mariana to be killed without even a chance to resist. Cornelia said.
"You mean let me investigate that mysterious man?" Ito asked.
"Yes. I want to know the truth, or I won't have the face to meet the dead royal brother Lelouch and the royal sister Nanali. Cornelia looked up and met Ito's eyes.
"Yes." Itonari looked at Cornelia quietly for a moment, nodded and said, "You can't just let you pay and I don't do anything, this is not in line with the principle of equivalent exchange of transactions." ”
"Thank you." Cornelia thanked her heartily.
"You're welcome, as it should be." Ito waved his hand indifferently. Then he said, "Do you have the investigation report of the incident and the personnel information of the witnesses at that time?" ”
"I'll have someone bring you the investigation report tomorrow, but I only know two people about eyewitnesses. One is the current Knight of the Sixth Round Table, Aniah. Alstolem, one was the late imperial princess Nanali Vi Britannia. These two were the only witnesses who witnessed the whole event in their entirety, and when I and the other guards arrived later. All I could see was the body of Princess Mariana, lying dead in a pool of blood on Nanali's body......," Conelia said.
"Then I can meet the Sixth Knight, Aniah. Altolem? Ito asked.
"I'm afraid it's hard." Cornelia frowned slightly and explained, "Since the Blood Emblem Rebellion 19 years ago, the Emperor has made a rule: no member of the royal family is allowed to meet with any Knights of the Round Table without the Emperor's permission, otherwise they will be convicted according to the circumstances. One of the most severe is the crime of treason, so even as a soldier, I can't ask to see the Knights of the Round Table without a valid reason. ”
"Huh. Rebellion is a thing that can be forbidden wherever it is regulated, and it is simply redundant. Ito Nari sneered.
"But this rule greatly eliminates the possibility of rebellion among members of the royal family." Cornelia explained.
"Then can you take me into the palace? I want to see the environment. Ito Nari was noncommittal and asked instead.
"It's not difficult to do this, you just need to disguise yourself as my bodyguard and join me when I enter the palace." Cornelia said.
"Alright, you can call me then." Ito Nari nodded.
"Okay, I won't bother you." Seeing that the matter was finished, Conelia got up from the sand and said, "Good dreams." ”
"Yes." Ito Nari sat in his seat and didn't move, accepting his blessing and watching Conelia walk out of the room. Then he spread his arms and put his arms on the sand behind him, leaned his whole back on it, tilted his head and closed his eyes, and said, "Princess Mariana......
After a while, he got up suddenly, turned back to the bed, lifted the white down quilt on the bed that was enough for four or five people to lie side by side, stretched his legs and lay in, and rested.
"Comfortable!" Feeling the softness that came from the contact between his back and the mattress, Ito couldn't help but moan.
A good night's sleep......
"Bang Bang Bang"
In the morning, a brisk knock on the door woke up Ito Nari, who was sleeping peacefully on the bed, and when Ito Nari was about to get up, a female voice came in from outside the door, "Sir, breakfast is ready, please come down and eat." ”
"Got it." Ito Nari replied while lying on the bed, then got up and sat up from the bed, then walked to the window, pulled back the dark brown curtain-like curtain in front of him, and squinted to enjoy the warmth of the sun shining on his body. After stretching comfortably, he turned around and walked into the bathroom in the bedroom and washed up.
A moment later, Ito, dressed in a Britannian costume, walked out of the room.
"Morning!" Ito, who was walking down the stairs step by step, greeted Cornelia who had just finished exercising and walked in from the courtyard and was wiping her sweat with a towel.
"Early." Wearing red trousers, a lilac stand-up collar and a long-sleeved casual shirt, Cornelia, whose sweaty head was naturally scattered, nodded and saluted in return.
"It's really hardworking." Ito-naru, who walked down the stairs, looked at the slender sword that was put aside by Cornelia and exclaimed.
"As a commander-in-chief, you must have the strength of all the soldiers, otherwise the soldiers you bring out will only be a flock of useless lambs." Cornelia threw the towel in her hand to Lis, the maid who was standing beside her, and said in a sonorous voice.
"It turns out that you are taking the road of a hegemon who builds prestige with personal bravery, leads the army with prestige, and establishes military merit with the army." When Ito Nari heard this, combined with his observations of Cornelia during this time, he said with some understanding.
"Overlord" Cornelia lowered her head and thought for a moment when she heard this, feeling that Ito's description was very appropriate, and repeated it subconsciously. Then he came back to his senses and said to Ito, "Let's eat." ”
"Okay." Ito Nari nodded in agreement.
Then the two of them were led by the maid Liz to a room next to the living room with only one long square table and a few chairs, and Ito Nari and Cornelia each walked to one end of the long square table and sat down. As soon as they had sat down, the maid who was waiting beside them took out a small brass bell from the white apron in front of them and shook it.
"Bell, bell, bell," a crisp bell sounded in the room. Then several maids with silver trays in their hands walked in through the door after the bell rang, and came to Ito Nari and Cornelia in two waves, and placed the silver tray6 in their hands on the table in front of them.
A few slices of bread, a piece of butter, a small plate of caviar or foie gras sauce, two slices of vegetables, two hams, two fried eggs, a plate of fruit cut into accompaniments, a glass of milk, and a silver knife and fork as cutlery.
Ito, who already knew how to eat Western food in the world of steel, didn't need to be taught, he just picked up a slice of bread, cut a slice of butter on top of the small butter with a knife and spread it on the bread, then chopped the ham into pieces and sprinkled it on the butter, then covered with vegetables, covered the vegetables with eggs, added a little sauce to the eggs, and finally covered with another slice of bread, a homemade sandwich was completed......
Conelia looked at Ito's eating method and shook her head speechlessly, ignoring it, cutting off a piece of the egg and chewing it in her mouth......
"It tastes okay." Ito Nari took a bite of the sandwich in his hand, and after feeling it carefully for a moment, he said. It's a pity that no one answered his words except for the maid who lowered her eyes and didn't squint. But Ito Nari didn't care, and ate it very complacently.
After destroying everything in front of him, he asked the maid who was waiting, "Is there anything else?" ”
"Yes, please wait." The maid was asked, but replied quickly. This thing will be made even if there is no kitchen, otherwise why would the princess's mansion raise these cooks, it was just the first time that the maid had encountered such a person who completely disregarded etiquette and didn't care about face.
After a few moments, the maid put a breakfast in front of Ito Nari for him to eat. (To be continued......)
