Earl James Wilmot lived above Second Avenue.

The First to Fifth Avenues, which run from the Royal Palace, cut the city into unconventional strips.

Luo Xiaotian has not been further afield, but it is said that there is still an old palace in the old city from hundreds of years ago, which is an ancient relic established during the reign of the founding emperor Leiden I.

"Is there anything I can do to help you, Mr. Magician?"

"Please inform the Earl of Wilmot, that a man named Ronald Darwin wants to see him. ”

"Then, Mr. Ronald, please follow me. ”

The earl's butler took Luo Xiaotian to the lounge on the first floor, said sorry, and left the room.

Luo Xiaotian looked around here, except for the maid who served himself black tea and then stood behind him, there was nothing out of the ordinary.

The rustling of the leaves outside the window, mixed with the occasional birdsong, brings a very quiet and soft feeling.

"Hahaha, Ronald! Why are you here?"

In a few moments, Count Wilmot himself came to the lounge. The tranquility in the room and Luo Xiaotian's heart was instantly broken, replaced by vitality and vigor.

"Count Wilmot, thank you again for your hospitality last time, this time I came to you because I wanted your help with something!"

"Don't be so nasty, call me James! Come on, come to my study and we'll get down to business. ”

"Uh... Okay, Mr. James. ”

Earl Wilmot's study was on the third floor of the building, and he glanced a little at the bookshelves that lined the walls, full of books on history and war.

"Tell me, what do you want me to help you with?"

"That's right, the purpose of my coming to Phoenix is to track down my family's whereabouts..."

Luo Xiaotian told Count Wilmot most of what he knew, including the details of his family's deception, the distribution of similar incidents in the empire, and all the clues that he went to Luoer Village to investigate this time.

"In other words, Ronald, you want me to help you find those two people who are pretending to be city guards, right? But according to what you said earlier, there is a good chance that these two people have disappeared... But don't worry, even if these two people disappear, it doesn't matter, I'll give you a result, and I'll send it to the Duke's Palace in two days. As for today, I would have liked to invite you to lunch, but I have other things to do and will have to save until next time. ”

"Mr. James... Thank you very much!"

Luo Xiaotian was not surprised at all that Earl Wilmot knew that he was living with Duke Brewster now, and after the last time he met him, Earl Wilmot did an investigation.

"Hehehe, these are small things for me, and I may need your help at any time, and it seems to me that your future is very bright. Okay, I think you should need to go back early today, and I'll have the people below help find out about your family. ”

Bidding farewell to Earl Wilmot, Luo Xiaotian returned to the Duke's Palace in a carriage.

However, Luo Xiaotian didn't see the housekeeper Greenton at the gate, not only that, Luo Xiaotian didn't see anyone, and the intricate iron gate was opened there like that.

What if a thief gets in? Well, there shouldn't be a thief with such guts.

"Oh, why don't you stay in your palace and come to me?!"

Before entering the hall on the first floor, Luo Xiaotian heard Alice's voice first. Didn't you say that Alice would only be back in the afternoon? And, who is she talking to?

"Hmph! Where I go is my freedom, and I don't need you to care! Besides, all the places in the entire empire are our home, okay?!"

... The voice is very familiar, and the person who can say this kind of thing, Luo Xiaotian feels that there is only one person he knows.

"Angelina, don't I think the nobles of the empire like to hear you say that, or do you want to provoke a war between the royal family and the nobles?

Wow, is it really okay to talk to an imperial princess like this Alice? Luo Xiaotian was very hesitant to enter the hall on the first floor, and always felt that the smell of gunpowder inside was very strong.

But ah, who the hell is it that didn't close the door?!

"Ah, Ronald, you're finally back! Come with me! I don't want to stay here for a moment, or you move out, I have an empty house in my name. ”

"Wait! Ronald is going out with me later, so he's not going anywhere!"

If he could, Ronald would want to stay away from these two people now.

Greenton and the maids were shivering in the corner of the hall on the first floor, and they didn't even dare to get out. It seems that the distance between the nobles and the royal family is not as clear as Luo Xiaotian thought before, and the royal family is not particularly strict and rigid, from what I saw before, at least Princess Angelina often leaves the palace.

"Hmph, Ronald, just say, do you want to come with me?!"

Please, do you know you well?!

"Uh... Where do you want to take me, Your Highness?

"Go to Sophia's house! Last time you said you were going to teach her magic, you're only halfway there, so I'm going to do the next half today!"

“... Is it okay tomorrow? I have other things to do today, and I really can't get out of it. ”

Angelina looked back and forth at Luo Xiaotian and Alice.

"Hmph, tomorrow is tomorrow, I'll come to you early in the morning, so let's stop here today. ”

After saying this, Angelina turned to leave with her minions without looking back.

"Alice, do you have a bad relationship with Princess Angelina?"

"The kind of woman who is both arrogant and unintelligent, who wants to have a good relationship with her, but I don't have a bad relationship with her because of this, alas, you don't want to inquire about girls!"

“......”

"By the way, my father is not here, but I heard from Grinton that I regret the matter of your family, and I believe you will be able to find them!"

"Thank you... I think so too. ”

"By the way, have you ever been here to look for Nina? I've been concerned since you asked me last time, but I can't know more until I get back to Phoenix. ”

“... Not yet, I haven't been able to take care of it for the past two days, and I don't know where Nina lives now..."

"Let's go, then, to Nina's grandfather, the Marquis Patrick, who, as expected, is there. ”

I think I haven't seen Nina for a long, long time, and I haven't gotten any news about it, so I don't know how Nina is doing now, but what reassures Luo Xiaotian is that for the nobles, no news is good news to some extent.
