-92- The missing girl
Withdrawing from the spirit world, Charlotte returns to reality.
She got up from the ground and left the basement.
Nice the black cat was still guarding outside, and when Charlotte pushed open the basement door, she saw the guy looking straight at her, and the amber cat's eyes made her uncomfortable.
"Have you seen enough?"
The girl said coldly.
Swept by the deep blue eyes, Ness quickly withdrew his gaze.
But it couldn't help but occasionally raise its head and look at Charlotte, and then stopped.
"Say it quickly."
Charlotte frowned.
"Well, it's nothing, it's just a little curious...... Miss Charlotte...... Well, have you regained your strength a little bit? ”
The black cat asked cautiously.
Well?
Charlotte gave it a strange look.
"Uh...... Well, I just received a message from the church, and although it hasn't been announced yet, I guess the whole of Boulder will know about it soon......"
Nice, the black cat, scratched her head as she followed Charlotte.
As he spoke, it glanced at Charlotte strangely, swallowed its saliva, and said cautiously:
"The Grand Knight of the Inquisition, Fallen......"
Charlotte paused slightly, then nodded slowly.
She went back to her study and sat down again, while Nice, the black cat, jumped on the desk and poured her a glass of hot milk.
"That...... You don't seem surprised? Did you do it? ”
Ness asked.
"Me? I've always been in Castel Manor. ”
Charlotte gracefully picked up the goblet.
"But I feel the breath of that guy Sebas! Meow! I can't be wrong with that guy's dog smell! ”
"That unlucky guy who was supposed to be hunted down by the Great Knight actually appeared in the manor, and the Great Knight died suddenly, except for you...... I can't think of anyone else who can do it! ”
"And...... The High Priest had blocked more detailed information, the last time he did it was because of Thorn Rose! ”
Nice eagerly authentic.
Charlotte gave it a deliberate look:
"The Great Knight is dead, you seem to be in a hurry?"
"Meow! Of course I'm in a hurry! That's the Grand Knight of the Inquisition! The Grand Diocese of the Silvermoon Kingdom will definitely send someone down to investigate! If it's really you, be careful! My life is in the same boat as you! ”
Ness said.
"It doesn't matter, someone is more anxious than me, and he will do everything he can to cover everything."
Charlotte said.
"You mean the High Priest? IMHO...... I can't think of how he could hide the death of a great knight......"
Ness frowned.
I didn't think of it either.
But anyway, I ran fast, and I didn't leave any horses, and I will slip away in half a year, and I have to worry about him who is involved with the Blood Demon Order!
Charlotte said secretly in her heart.
Having been confirmed, Ness sighed:
"Anyway...... I hope you will be careful, the Holy Court has always been wary of the resurrection of the departed gods, and don't let them discover your presence! Otherwise, the legend would really be sent down to investigate. ”
"The current era is not thousands of years ago when you were called."
Listening to the black cat's words, Charlotte's expression gradually became serious.
"Don't worry, I'll be careful."
She nodded.
After speaking, Charlotte pondered for a moment, and then said:
"Nice, I need you to do something."
"Meow? What's up? ”
"Go check someone."
"Who?"
"Priest Lottie."
"Priest Lottie? Isn't that Raoult's student? What do you check her for? ”
Something strange about Nice.
"I suspect she's related to the Blood Demon Order."
Charlotte paused and said.
"Blood Demon Order?!"
The black cat's eyes widened suddenly.
It pondered for a moment and nodded solemnly:
"I see, wrap it up on me!"
After receiving the order, Ness twisted his ass and left.
Charlotte was lost in thought.
The death of the Grand Knight will definitely bring about a chain reaction, and the upper dioceses of the Holy Court will definitely send someone to investigate.
Ness can think of it, and the Blood Demon Order can probably think of it too.
Sebas had said that there was a good chance that the Blood Demon Order was hatching a grand conspiracy.
If this is really the case, perhaps the death of the Great Knight will also make them speed up their movements.
"Looks like I'm going to have to hurry up too."
Charlotte let out a light breath.
She rang the bell and called the maid:
"Prepare a glass of red wine and ...... No orders, don't come and bother me. ”
The red wine, of course, was not for her, but for Sebas.
If she judged it right, the other party would be back soon.
Charlotte gave the order, and after a while, the maid returned to the study with the red wine she had prepared.
It's just that the people who came were not only maids, but also the dignified old servant Quasimodo, and more than a dozen teenagers and girls.
Quasimodo led the crowd, and beside him was Rand, who was already a star knight, and Shirley, who had always been very prestigious among newcomers.
And in the middle of the three, there is also a crying pear blossom with rain and an anxious girl.
Charlotte recognized it, and it was one of the newcomers, a trainee maid named Elena.
She also has a younger sister, who is only twelve years old and one of the newcomers to the manor.
"Rand, why are you here? Shirley, what are you doing running around if you don't take care of your injuries? ”
Charlotte frowned.
Then, she looked at the girl who was crying with pear blossoms and rain:
"What the hell is going on?"
"Sorry...... Master, something urgent has happened and I need to report it to you, about the newcomers, and quite a few people's families, they ...... I couldn't stop it, so I followed. ”
Quasimodo bowed his head.
Something went wrong?
Charlotte's heart jumped.
After Quasimodo finished speaking, the young men and girls who followed behind suddenly bowed down in unison:
"Lord Charlotte...... Please save our partners and families! ”
……
"Hehe, Lady Night must not have imagined that I would have a harvest so quickly!"
Having obtained the token of the Drunken Dream Salon, Sebas was quite happy and returned to Castel Manor as fast as he could.
However, as soon as he entered the manor, he felt that the atmosphere of the manor did not seem quite right, quite oppressive.
In the manor, those teenagers and girls who were originally excited after being rescued looked quite anxious at this moment.
Well?
Sebas's heart jumped.
He flashed and reappeared in front of the study on the second floor of the manor, knocking on the door gently.
"Come in."
A young and beautiful female voice came from the room.
Sebas opened the door and entered, then saluted:
"Master, I'm back."
And when he raised his head, he quickly saw the red wine that had been prepared on the table, and the chair that had been prepared, and his expression was a little surprised.
Well?
The Night Lady already knows he's coming back?
"Sit."
Behind her desk, Charlotte motioned for him to sit down.
Sebas sat down respectfully at his desk and was about to speak, but Charlotte spoke first:
"Have you found out the location of the Drunken Dream Salon?"
Sebas was even more surprised.
However, he quickly nodded, took out a badge from his bosom, placed it on the table, and said respectfully:
"Great master, I haven't found Jordan yet, though...... I found a token from the Drunken Dream Salon! ”
"I've already found out when and where the next Drunken Dream Salon will be held!"
Charlotte picked up the badge on the table and examined it.
It was a masked badge in the shape of a clown-like mask decorated with stars and moon.
"Not bad."
She nodded slightly.
Sebas, however, noticed something different from Charlotte's expression, and his heart moved, and he asked:
"The host...... Is something going on in the manor? ”
Charlotte put down the badge and sighed:
"One sixth of the newcomers on the manor haven't come back, they're ...... Disappeared last night. ”
Well?
Sebas's gaze froze:
"They?"
"Yes, they are."
Charlotte nodded and said coldly:
"There were nine of them, all girls."
"They were taken away by the first 'local trial forces.'"
