Chapter 14: The Prosperous Perth
Half a day later, Reilly and his party arrived at their destination
"This is the heart of the Perth region, the commercial city of Perth. ”
"Wow, it's really prosperous. Estelle exclaimed.
"Among the five major cities of the Kingdom of Liber, Perth is second only to the royal capital in terms of prosperity. Reilly said with a smile.
"What is that huge house for?" asked Estelle, pointing to a building in the distance.
"It was Perth, a big market with all kinds of shops. Reilly explained to her, "Food, clothing, furniture, books, groceries...... With the exception of the detractor, most things can be bought there. ”
"It's really a commercial city!" Estelle was excited for a moment, and then showed a depressed expression: "Hey...... It's a pity that I didn't have time to shop and play this time. ”
"After finding Cassius's senior, everyone can come and play together. Reilly smiled and said, "But for now, let's hurry up and ask the Guerrilla Association about the situation." ”
"Hmm. ”
After the four of them entered the association, the old man behind the counter immediately noticed them: "Isn't this Reilly and Sherazade, you came earlier than I expected, it's really hard." ”
"Grandpa Luglan, long time no see. Reilly smiled and said, "Aina informed you, right?"
"Hmm. Lugland nodded, and said, "The little girl and the young man over there are the children of Cassius, right?"
"That's right. ”
"When we first met, I was Estelle Bright. ”
"I'm Joshua Bright, please take care of me. ”
"I'm Luglan, the head of the Perth branch, and I've known your father for a long time. ”
After introducing herself, Istelle said eagerly, "Grandpa Lugland, please tell me about that soon." ”
"Well, that's the case...... Lugland nodded and said, "The Kingdom Army is still searching for the missing regular ship, but they have intelligence control, so we haven't gotten any news either. ”
"Hey, why is that?" Estelle asked in surprise, "Isn't it a partnership between the Kingdom Army and the Guild?"
"Although it is on the surface, the two sides are often secretly at odds. Reilly shrugged his shoulders and said, "By the way, the person in charge of the Haken Gate is the previously mentioned General Morgan, and it is difficult for the Association to get information from him. ”
"Well, that guy is too unreasonable!" said Estelle, pouting, "I'm going to fight him!
"Don't mess around," Joshua said helplessly......
"But you don't have to be in such a hurry. "In fact, I've already received a commission from the mayor. At her request, the guerrilla association will also be involved in the investigation. ”
"Oh? That's great. Reilly smiled and said, "With Mabel's commission, our actions will be much easier." ”
"What a timely rain!" asked Estelle eagerly, "shall we accept this commission?"
"Absolutely. Lugran thought for a moment and said, "But you're already a quasi-guerrilla, aren't you?"
"yes, what's wrong?" asked Istelle, confused.
"As would-be guerrillas, you have to do internships in various branches. Lugland took out a document and said, "So you need to change the branch to which you belong." ”
"Joshua, Astelle, go over and sign. Reilly pointed to the counter and said.
"Oh, okay. ”
"Just sign it here, right?"
So, Estelle and Joshua signed the paper.
"Well, that's fine. Lugran nodded and said, "Joshua Bright, Estil Bright, the above two officially became guerrillas belonging to the Perth branch at 15:20 today. ”
"By the way, when you become a regular guerrilla, you can accept work in a branch that you have no affiliation. Shelazad smiled.
"Of course, the corresponding responsibilities and obligations will also increase. Reilly added.
"I see. Joshua nodded.
"We're still a head shorter...... Estelle complained.
"In this way, the mayor's commission can be entrusted to you. Lugland looked at Reilly and said, "Then please take them there." ”
"Leave it to me. Reilly nodded and said.
After arriving at the mayor's mansion, Estelle exclaimed, "Wow~ such a luxurious house...... Look at it, that big chandelier!"
"Don't get too excited, Estell. Joshua said helplessly.
"This is Mabel's mansion. With that, Reilly shouted inside, "Is anyone there?"
A middle-aged man came out of the small door next to him and said, "Ah, isn't this Mr. Reilly? ”
"Long time no see, Butler Mentes. Reilly smiled and said, "We have some work to ask Mabel, can we see her now?"
"Things at work...... Oh, you mean the commission, right?" Munster nodded and then said in embarrassment, "Unfortunately, the mayor happened to be out......"
"Well, let's go out and find her. Reilly thought for a moment and said, "At this time, Mabel should be going to church with Lila, right?"
"Yes, Mr. Reilly. ”
As she walked along the way, Estelle asked curiously, "Is Mr. Reilly familiar with the mayor?"
"Of course. Reilly smiled and said, "That kid is also one of my lovely students." ”
"Student?" Joshua asked in surprise, "Has Mr. Reilly ever been a teacher?"
"Hmm. Reilly nodded and said, "I'm a visiting professor at Geness Royal College. ”
"Hey~~~?" Astelle was taken aback: "Mr. Reilly is so powerful!"
"It's not a big deal. Reilly spread his hands and said, "You see, there's the church ahead." ”
"This is the church in Perth, it seems to be much bigger than the one in Lorente. Astelle sighed.
"That's normal, too. Shelazadeh smiled and said, "Perth is an international city. ”
After entering the church, Reilly directly found a blue-haired girl in a maid's outfit: "Hello, Lila. ”
"Ah, Mr. Reilly. The girl saluted and said, "Long time no see." ”
Reilly looked around, then asked, "Why can't you see Mabel?"
“...... Escaped. ”
"I see. Reilly nodded and said, "Did the kid let you worship in her place and then run to the supermarket?"
"Yes. Lila smiled embarrassedly and said, "It seems that our eldest lady has caused you a lot of trouble." ”
"Haha, she's a super mobile person. Reilly smiled and said, "By the way, can you take us to Mabel now?" ”
"Okay. Lila nodded and said, "It's almost time for me to pick her up." Would you like Mr. Reilly to come along?"
"Then I'll let you lead the way. ”
Led by Lila, everyone came to Perth Supermarket.
"Wow~ This supermarket is so big!" Estil looked around and said, "Where will the mayor be?"
"She's eye-catching, and it shouldn't be hard to find......"
"Hehe, it's exactly what Lila said. ”
Following the direction of Reilly's finger, everyone saw a stunning girl with blonde hair and blue eyes.
"Do you two have any shame in raising the price of food at such a nervous time......" She reprimanded the two young men with a serious face, "The reputation of the Perth merchant has been ruined for you!"
"But, Miss, ......"
"We also want to increase sales in supermarkets......
The two youths tried to find an excuse, but they were immediately interrupted.
"Shut up for me!" The blonde girl said sharply, "Forget about other goods, the price of food must not be changed casually!
"Yes, yes......"
"I see......"
"To be honest, I never doubted your passion for supermarkets. The blonde girl calmed down and said, "However, I hope you can understand that the so-called buying and selling is the process of building a relationship of trust between a merchant and a customer. Don't be discouraged, just keep on the right path and you will one day become outstanding Perth merchants!"
"Big, Miss, ......"
"Understood, we must work hard!"
After the two young men left, Reilly and the others came over.
"You've grown again, Mabel. ”
"Ah, teacher!" Seeing Reilly, a red cloud floated on the blonde girl's face: "It's so embarrassing for you to see that I am not a weapon!"
"You're too modest. Reilly smiled and said, "Of course, I'm not here to discuss supermarket management with you this time. ”
"Ah, I know. The blonde girl looked at the guerrilla badge on Estelle's body and said, "You are from the guerrilla association, right?"
"Yes, yes. Estelle nodded and said, "You are ......"
"So, let me introduce myself first. The blonde girl smiled and said, "My name is Mabel." He is the owner of the supermarket and the mayor of Perth. ”
