Chapter 141: State Secret Police (I)
On April 16, 1770, Ajaccio was cloudy and drizzling continuously.
Although the peasants in the countryside could not help but smile at the spring rain that had arrived as scheduled, the rain was depressing for the poor people in the western city of Ajaccio.
Most of the slum-dwellers have no permanent jobs and can only do odd jobs in the streets of Ajaccio to make ends meet, and the non-stop spring rains have undoubtedly cost them a day of income.
The idle paupers sat idly in the tin huts, listening boredly to the crackling sound of the rain lapping on the tin sheets.
"Huh? What do you see is that? ”
A pauper leaning against the corner and dozing off inadvertently glanced at the street opposite, quickly sat up at once, woke up his companion and said.
I saw a girl with a black umbrella slowly walking out of the opposite street corner.
Although she was wrapped in a plain black robe, she was even more attractive than most of the Habsburg princesses, judging by the beauty of her fair and slender fingers and the beauty that loomed under her hood.
"Where did this noble lady come from?"
"It would be nice if I could change my wife."
"Mom, I've seen everything..."
"Shhh Don't you see the person behind her?! ”
Listening to the growing discussion among his companions, the pauper hurriedly motioned for them to shush, pointed to the guards behind the maiden, and whispered.
The girl was followed by six vigilant patrols, and although they did not carry fire due to the weather, the rain only made the swords on their waists even more chilling.
Everyone knows that the current patrol can be said to be the pro of the governor of Bonaparte, and the girl can come here under the escort of the patrol, and her identity is about to be revealed:
"Shhhh That must be Miss Anna. ”
"No, I saw her parents a few days ago, and this girl has really changed completely in the past two years."
"The food and drink have become better, but I used to be thin and could see the bones, and the skin was yellow."
"It's just that Miss Anna has gone back to the slums to do something, and her parents don't live here anymore."
......
Ignoring the arguments of the people on the street, Anna expertly searched the neighborhood, and soon came to a halt in front of a small, unobtrusive, crumbling-looking shack.
Dongdong.
Reaching out and knocking lightly on the rusty tin door twice, Anna waited patiently in place.
After a long while, I faintly heard a faint movement from inside the shed, and then a somewhat immature but strong female voice came from inside:
"Who?!"
"Yes, Ann, Anna Celestia." Anna replied softly.
The iron sheets were slightly opened, and the girl inside cautiously looked at Ann outside the house, confirming that it was her before opening the door completely.
Inside the door was a young man about Anna's age, dressed in a rag shirt.
Moreover, her face was withered, and her cheeks looked very weak and severely undernourished, and her thighs were not even as thick as a normal man's forearms.

"It's you, Ann, come in quickly." The girl inside the door seemed to want to be exposed to the eyes of the neighbors, and reached out to grab Anna's arm to pull her in.
"Sister Shadia."
Anna stood in the original and said with some excitement and heartfelt joy:
"Governor Bonaparte wants to see you."
......
"So, you're Miss Shadia, aren't you?"
In the study of the Governor's Palace, Lawrence unexpectedly looked at the withered young man who was brought in by Anna, and hurriedly beckoned her to sit, and at the same time let Anna stay in the study, after all, she was familiar with Shadia.
Shadya nodded expressionlessly, then shook it again, and said in a somewhat hoarse voice:
"I'm Shady, but I'm not small, I'm Shadya in the slums."
"Oh?"
Lawrence looked at the little in front of him even more in surprise, although he was almost powerless
Overwhelming, but it still surprised Lawrence to see that Shadia still looked completely indifferent when facing the Supreme Commander of Corsica.
"Sister Shadia!"
Anna, who was sitting next to Shadia, quickly poked her elbow with her elbow, for fear that her attitude would cause Lawrence to be dissatisfied.
"Okay, I'll just call you Shadia."
Lawrence, who came from later generations, did not look at the rules and regulations of aristocratic etiquette, so he said indifferently:
"Although this is the first time I've seen it, I'm very satisfied with the work you've done for me in the past two years."
As early as two years ago, Lawrence at that time, in order to fight against West, assigned Anna to contact the child she once belonged to, and Lawrence funded the regular information from this party.
After Ciro's death, Lawrence did not relax his support for the congregation, but increased the amount of funding for them as the congregation grew.
Before that, Lawrence inquired about William Pitt's identity, and the information from the party saved Lawrence a lot of trouble, including the address of the tavern where William Pitt's entourage lived.
And at the very beginning, Lawrence released to the outside world that the news of the imminent establishment of the Kingdom of Corsica was also spread through this party.
It's just that Lawrence only learned today that the leader of such a large-scale intelligence organization turned out to be the emaciated and eclectic girl in front of him.
"Just take the money and do things."
Shadia shook slightly, and very briefly, she didn't take Lawrence's affirmation to heart.
Lawrence sat on the chair and waited for the film, and saw that Xia Di had no intention of speaking at all, so he smiled to himself and said:
"Okay, okay, talk to me about your party, that..."
"Bread meeting." Shadia interrupted Lawrence and said:
"That's its name."
"Bread meeting? I gotta say it's a strange name. Lawrence said curiously.
"It was created with the hope that everyone in attendance would be able to eat all-you-can-eat bread."
Shadia looked at Lauren, bowed her head and was silent for a moment, and said:
"With your sponsorship, this original intention has basically been realized, and in that sense I have to thank you."
Lawrence frowned at Shadia's thin arms like firewood, and it was clear that what Shadia said about having a full stomach did not include herself.
Anna saw Lawrence's suspicions, so she walked behind Lawrence and leaned over and whispered:
"First of all, only a small part of the bread you gave to the bread club will be left to her, and I have persuaded her, but..."
"Is it..."
Lawrence nodded and looked at the young man in front of him with interest, whether Shadia's behavior was out of morality or profit, it was much wiser than those fools who saw money. It was even similar to Lawrence's own distribution of money among patrols and the military.
It also made Lawrence feel that he had made the right choice to meet her.
After all, Lawrence still has an important position in his hands - the head of the Corsican State Secret Police.
From Corsica to the Fourth Rome.
