Chapter 193: The Source of Fear
"We should find Ella first. ”
Lin Qiu expressed her opinion seriously, regardless of whether there was a misunderstanding in this matter, Ella was really the orphan of Canor, but judging by what Melia had done, once she identified Ella, I am afraid she would not mind having another human life on her hands.
In this country, sometimes there is only a thin line between a knight and a terrorist.
"I agree with you, but ......"
Phoenix tossed the towel aside in his hand, "I think we should stop looking for Ella in the trolley." ”
This behavior is so stupid that she has been regarded by several passing workers as the new monster cleaning staff hired by the Musa Foundation. Of course, Lin Qiu himself was no better, at the moment he was holding his head high, trying to remove the ventilation duct on the ceiling, so they formed a combination of cleaners and repairmen in a short time.
Alyssa sets out to find Eric's lieutenant first, hoping to find out more about Melia from her.
In the past few years, they don't know whether Melia has repented or changed. However, judging from the fact that Melia did not hesitate to make a move on Lin Qiu, she didn't seem to have changed much.
"I've got a solution. Lin Qiu saw the figure disappearing in the corridor, and suddenly had a plan in his heart.
Melia is a master of tracking, Alyssa says her abilities allow her to track down enemies on the battlefield based on humble marks, while Ella is a master escaper, and her years as a journalist have allowed her to offend nearly half of the dark forces in the imperial capital, but she is able to do it every time.
As for him and Phoenix......
A detective at the level of Kogoro Maori, and an outlaw fanatic who wants to attack the church in addition to delusion. To be honest, even Lin Qiu himself was not optimistic that the two of them would be able to track down Ella.
"Say it quickly. Phoenix asked.
"We should find someone to bring us to Ella. ”
"Sounds like an idea, but who are you looking for?"
"Melia, as long as we follow her, she will be able to lead us to Ella sooner or later. ”
"Huh, Tyr, how did you become so smart?" said Phoenix, shocked.
Lin Qiu stared at Phoenix for a long time.
Phoenix, the only one he's ever met who makes people want to fight with her when he praises people.
......
The other side.
Ella leaned against a dark room with bated breath, the occasional sound of trivial footsteps outside the door. Every time there was a sound of footsteps, her heartbeat involuntarily increased a few minutes. This is a situation that she is familiar with, and Eric's bodyguards are not enough to arouse the fear in her heart, but the moment Melia appears, she can no longer suppress the fear in her heart and chooses to flee.
It was as dark as it was now, and she hid in the cubicle in the room, and the sound of people being anxious kept reaching her ears.
Nine years ago -
"It's bad, Canor. ”
"Everything is out of control, those soldiers...... They're insane!"
The person who spoke was very annoyed.
They responded with a heavy knock, and Carnot slammed the table. Seeing this, the person who tried to defend lowered his head and said no more.
"We should have negotiated with Henry V—peacefully!, not a coup d'état and upset the whole imperial capital!" Canor exclaimed. Judging from the usual gentle image, the two of them were scared and the others trembled a few times. They knew that Canor was not a high-ranking knight, and even strictly speaking, he was not even a fighting force, but his appeal was terrifying, and it was under his call that people gathered together.
But they screwed up.
They had no political sense, but they understood what the tragic situation in front of the royal city meant. The failure of the siege was only one of the reasons, and the massacre of the nobles in front of the royal family directly pushed the contradictions between the two sides to an irreconcilable state. Apparently, they miscalculated those soldiers who returned from the battlefield.
They suspect that what those people want is not fair treatment at all, but simply to provoke a fight.
The Hundred Years' War was over, but theirs was not.
Once they're on the battlefield, it's hard to get out of the place where the bones are all over the place.
"Canor, maybe we should keep ...... and on"
"Are you crazy with them?" another roar interrupted him.
"We have an army, we still occupy four city districts, and the knights of the royal family can only hide in the turtle king city!"
"But they've already asked the Senate for help!"
There was silence for a while.
The people who can stand here know at least a little more than ordinary civilians, so there are some people who have heard rumors about the Senate. For the commoners, the Senate was accompanied by purging and killing. It does not appear many times in history, but every time they appear, it means the end of the rebellion.
And after the events subsided, none of the participants in the rebellion survived.
"We should go, Canor. It was a long time before someone whispered a proposal.
"It's time to go. Canor covered his forehead with one hand, as if thinking about something: "To be precise, you should go...... Take Ella. ”
"And what about you, Canor?"
"I'll take care of the aftermath. ”
The crowd was speechless for a moment, and they understood what it meant to deal with the aftermath.
The Senate never spared the "culprit", and most of the soldiers in the imperial capital knew the name "Canor".
Canor knew how tense people had been, so he had no intention of knowing who had started the conflict. In such a situation, even a small sentence of difficulty, a rude gesture can become the fuse of rebellion. Especially those soldiers who have returned home, deep down they yearn for war.
The war ended so quickly, so fast that people were overwhelmed.
A moment ago, the city was full of news of the collapse of the front, and a week later there was good news.
It was not these soldiers who had defeated the Byronic Empire, they had just regained their anger and resentment, and they heard the news of victory.
Under the moonlight, a man knocked on the closed window. The person at the window opened the window vigilantly and listened to the muttering of the person outside the door.
"Canor...... Perhaps, we don't have to run away. ”
After the messenger left, the person at the window slowly spoke.
His men meet a man in the city who may be the key to solving the problem.
"There's a girl who calls herself Princess Sophia who wants to see you. ”
He paused before continuing, "But the bad news is that she seems to be being targeted by the soldiers. ”
There was another moment of silence.
"Bring her in, and don't let anyone notice. ”
