"Whew......... When you're ready, get to work. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 ο½‰ο½Žο½†ο½β€

Looking at the mountain of papers in front of him, O'Faryl sighed softly, then patted his face.

Since learning that she had been in a coma for dozens of days, the former princess quickly understood the current situation in the Twilight Forest and the problems of those affairs, knowing that many of them were handled only through her, Offariel naturally understood how important and troublesome these affairs were, and Charlotte, although very capable, was not her successor after all, so these things had to be solved by herself in the end. Luckily, because of her soul, she didn't need to lie in bed for a period of quiet rest like a normal patient before she could get back to work, so after a period of rest, Ofariel immediately began to deal with the accumulated papers, intending to complete it in the shortest possible time.

And just as she was putting up her pen and getting ready for work, suddenly there was a low thud, and then Offariel immediately felt that the whole Twilight Castle seemed to shake.

"Miss Charlotte again?"

She reluctantly put down the pen in her hand to avoid the black ink dripping on the paper, although it was not news that Charlotte led her subordinates to do something strange in the back mountain, but it didn't seem to be good to make such a big fuss.

And just as Offariel was thinking this, the door to the study suddenly opened, and then Charlotte appeared beside her.

"Sorry to disturb your work, Miss O'Faryl. ”

Charlotte's expression didn't change at all, but her words weren't calm.

"But we're in trouble. ”

Of course, Yuren didn't know that in the distant country of Orrut, someone was eagerly "missing" him, because at this moment he was standing in the corridor expressionlessly, looking at everything in front of him.

It was already the morning of the next day, and although it was logically supposed to be the time for everyone to go about their business, the twilight castle was filled with a solemn and solemn atmosphere, and even Ofaril was blushing and looking at the corridor in front of him that had been blasted out of a large hole, which was exactly where Julien and Charlotte had stood last night.

The explosion was so powerful that it not only blew away the walls, but even pierced through the surrounding houses, spreading like an invisible giant fist penetrating hard, and there were cobweb-like cracks everywhere.

"It's a very serious disaster. ”

Charlotte regained her usual signature smile at the moment, and made a quiet assessment.

"What the hell is going on? Have we been attacked?"

Offariel looked completely unaware of the situation, and in fact it was, she never expected to be attacked in the Twilight Castle, and in her opinion, no one could do anything under the noses of Yuren and the others. Coupled with those powerful maids, the entire Twilight Castle is simply an impregnable fortress, and there is no way to have such a problem.

Yet, it still appeared.

"Maybe, maybe not, Miss O'Faryl. ”

Charlotte smiled and answered O'Faryl's question.

"At least I can guarantee that no 'person' has attacked us, at least, the damage must not have been caused by people, otherwise we would not have been able to detect it at all. ”

"What could that be?"

Hearing Charlotte's answer, Offariel frowned, then looked at Farin who was standing on the other side. But in the face of her gaze, Faren was also puzzled, and shook his head gently.

"I don't feel any magic, Miss O'Fariel, it's obviously not magic, but...... It's hard for me to imagine anything other than magic that could do so much damage. However, if you use this level of magic, there will definitely be strong magic fluctuations, and since you don't feel it, I think ...... There should be zero possible surnames for magic. ”

"What do you think, Lord Yuren?"

Facing Farien's answer, Offariel also immediately frowned, she definitely did not believe that this was caused by nature, because it was absolutely impossible, no matter how you looked at it, it was all man-made. But as Farin and Charlotte said, this level of destruction cannot be done by anyone, it must be the product of powerful skills such as magic, but this is very strange, because Charlotte cannot not be aware that someone is doing sabotage, and Farin and the twin sisters are both masters of magic, and Offariel herself is very sensitive to the flow of magic, but unfortunately, even she did not feel any residual magical aura.

So what's going on here?

O'Faryl was puzzled, but now that she couldn't figure it out and didn't think about it anymore, she immediately turned to another question.

"What is the condition of the two of them?" Miss Charlotte?"

"Nothing is too much of a problem and you can rest assured. ”

If there were any victims in this incident, it was Shirley, and I don't know if it was a coincidence or deliberate, in fact, the explosion occurred at the same time when Shirley went out, although Mary was in front of her almost at the same time, but the huge shock air flow and flying debris still caused considerable trauma to them, in fact, when Yulian and the others arrived at the scene of the incident, both of them were already unconscious, so Yulian immediately ordered someone to take them to treatment, and then the scene at the beginning appeared。

"We don't get any more clues here. ”

As he spoke, Yu Lian raised his hand, and soon, the corridor that had been scattered and shattered quickly recovered under the action of the power of the source, and in the blink of an eye, it was no different from before the injury. Yuren didn't say anything more, but turned away.

"Go and ask them what's going on. ”

Shirley is still unconscious, but fortunately she was not hurt - in fact, she was not injured, after all, this princess should have been a dead person, and the reason why she was able to live until now is completely dependent on the "immortal" innate power that Messiah injected into her body, and because of this, unless she is strong enough to crack the existence of innate power, it is absolutely impossible to inflict any irreparable damage on her, even if you want to kill her.

Facing Shirley, who was unconscious, Yulian didn't say much, he ordered Charlotte to take good care of her, and then turned around and gave another order to O'Farel.

"Miss Ofariel, I hope you can immediately send someone to cordon off the entire Valhalla City, and lead a team to search from house to house to arrest all the people you think are suspicious...... Judy is currently in the Red Fortress, and I have to leave it to you, but I believe that with your ability, there should be no problem. ”

"Of course, Lord Yuren, I'll go now. ”

Offariel nodded, then looked at the sleeping Shirley with some concern, and immediately left the room.

And looking at Offariel's back, Yulian's face, which had always been very calm and expressionless, finally showed a smug smile at this moment.

The foreplay is over, and the next thing is the dinner.

"Charlotte, how is our lovely young lady?"

"I'm awake, master, I've had some minor injuries, and I'm out of the way. ”

Charlotte quickly gave an answer, and when he got the answer, Julien nodded in satisfaction, and then he turned and walked out of the house, and after walking through the hallway, he came to the guest room on the other side, and stood in front of the crimson door, Yuren first straightened his clothes, and then nodded, then he looked up and knocked on the door.

"Please come in ......"

Hearing the answer from inside, Yulian pushed open the door and walked in.

At this moment, Mary was half-sitting on the bed, wearing only a thin coat, white gauze wrapped around her right arm, and on the girl's cheeks, abrasions could be faintly seen. Mary was stunned for a moment when she saw Julien walk in, and then immediately turned around to get out of bed.

"I'm so sorry, my lord, I ........."

"Just sit there, Miss Mary. ”

Julien reached out and waved, and then he walked quickly to Mary's side and pressed her shoulder.

"Now that you're hurt, don't move, just lie quietly. ”

"I ........."

Sensing Yuren's outstretched hands, Mary turned red and hurriedly lowered her head, but she quickly shook her head and looked at Yuren again.

"Lord Yuren, what happened, and how is Her Royal Highness Princess Shirley?"

"Don't worry, Miss Mary. ”

Faced with the mercenary girl's inquiry, Yulian raised a hand and quickly gave an answer.

"Thanks to your protection, Miss Shirley didn't suffer any harm, she just fainted and woke up. Speaking of which, I would like to thank you a lot, if it weren't for you by her side, no one knows what would have happened. ”

"Hoo ........."

Hearing that Shirley was not injured, the mercenary girl breathed a sigh of relief, and then she finally showed a smile of relief.

"No thanks, my lord, I'm a mercenary, and it's my duty. ”

"Even so, I want to thank you. ”

Julien said, pulling over a chair and sitting down in front of Mary, who only then did she seem to realize that she was wearing only a thin coat, and her face turned slightly red, and she lay back on the bed.

"If you don't mind, can you tell me what happened? I did my research, but there was no one there at the time, so I couldn't get any results. ”

"This ........."

Hearing Julien's inquiry, Mary frowned and began to think about it carefully.

"After breakfast, Her Royal Highness Princess Shirley wanted to go for a walk in the garden, and then we had just left the house, and before we could close the door, we heard a deafening explosion 'boom'......... And then I don't remember anything. ”

"Scorching waves, ........."

Julien raised a frown, but Mary didn't notice his expression.

"So, Miss Mary, are you sure there isn't anyone around?"

"Frankly, I'm not sure. ”

Hearing Yuren's question, Mary smiled wryly.

"But at least for as long as I can remember, there should have been no one in the hallway at that time. ”

"I see. ”

Yuren nodded, and then he frowned, thinking carefully.

"It's really strange that something like that happened when there was no one........."

Although women are born actors, there is still a gap between the Oscar winner and the best newcomer who has just come out.

"Looks like I'll have to look into if anyone has been here lately. ”

Hearing Julien's words, which resembled self-talk, Mary's heart tightened.

It's not that she hasn't thought about this question, after all, she's been here for a long time, and nothing like this has happened before, so why is it just this morning? So think about it, did anything unusual happen yesterday? Of course she did, and she didn't need to ask to know what it was.

In fact, Mary has never wanted to think about it from this angle, but yesterday Crowk's performance was so abnormal, she originally wanted to follow the vine and see what he wanted to do, but Mary didn't expect that he would do such a thing!

Although Mary didn't have enough evidence to prove that Crowk did it, and didn't believe that he had the ability, the mercenary girl's instincts told her that it might be very big, maybe even too big for her to ignore. Connecting with the previous conversation between the masked man and Crowk, this possibility becomes even greater. Otherwise, how could Crowk, who had always hated nobles, take the initiative to come to Twilight Castle with him?

Then, if Yulian really investigates like this, Crowk's matter can't be hidden at all, after all, he brought it in by himself last night, and many people saw it, and at that time, Twilight Castle was already closed to the public, if it wasn't for Princess Shirley to greet him personally, he would definitely not be able to enter...... Thinking of this, Mary couldn't help but get nervous.

What to do?

Do you want to say it? Do you want to say it now?

But she has no evidence, just a speculation, and if the lord asks how she knows, then how should she answer?

While Mary was flustered and anxiously thinking, she had no idea that Yuren was secretly observing her, and after noticing Mary's uneasiness, he smiled and stood up.

"Well, then, I have something to investigate, and I hope you will have a good rest and a speedy recovery, Miss Mary. ”

Then, Yulian nodded very gracefully to the mercenary girl, then turned and walked towards the door.

"Huh?"

Hearing Yuren's voice, Mary raised her head in surprise, she looked at Yulian's figure walking towards the door, bit her lip tightly, and then, she finally made up her mind and spoke.

"Lord, lord, please stay, I have something to tell you. ”

"Oh?"

Hearing Mary's voice, Julien stopped and turned around.

"What's the matter?"

"Off, off, about this ........."

Mary clenched her hands and put them on her chest, her brain was almost blank at the moment, and her heart was beating violently, but under Yulian's gaze, she finally planned to say it, otherwise, the lord would definitely investigate the mercenary group! Although the current mercenary group is not good for her, and Crowk is not good for her, but she must protect them, she doesn't want anything to happen to them.

"I, I think I might have a clue. ”

"Oh? ”

Hearing Mary's words, Julien raised an eyebrow, and then he turned around and returned to Mary's side, staring at her. The mercenary girl opened her eyes wide, staring at the young man in front of her, her body was trembling slightly, but the girl was still insisting, she looked at Yulian, biting her lip, although Mary herself knew that this was not a good time, but she had no choice.

At the very least, it can give your team a chance.

That was Mary's only thought.

"I think I can give you an injunction on this matter, a person who is likely to have something to do with it. ”

"Who?"

"This ......"

This time, Mary paused.

"This ...... Actually, I can't say, because those people wear masks and cloaks, and they rarely appear in front of other people, so I don't know who they are, but I have evidence that those people should have something to do with it!"

"Wearing a mask and a cloak......... Frankly, Miss Mary, your information is really worthless. ”

Even if Julien didn't say so, Mary knew very well that although it must have been a very obvious feature, so what? Wouldn't it be any different from ordinary people if they took off their cloaks and masks?

In fact, Yulian himself knew this, after all, he had sent someone to follow Mary, and naturally he would have learned about it, and in his opinion, the matter could only end there. In fact, the reason why Yulian did this, in addition to having his own little plans, was just to use this incident to put a little pressure on his little prey, and he didn't expect to get any useful information through her.

Seeing that Mary lowered her head again and stopped talking, Yuren didn't say anything more, he just shrugged his shoulders and then planned to leave.

"Anyway, thank you very much for your information, I think this is also the direction of the investigation, thank you, Miss Mary. ”

"Please, please wait a minute, my lord, I have one more thing to say. ”

Oh? and?

Hearing this, Yulian stopped.

Could it be that Christmas is coming, and there are still unexpected surprises?

As a result, he soon found that the girl in front of him seemed to have really given himself a very rare Christmas gift.

"I know where they live, my lord. ”
