Chapter 697: To Meet the Queen

The smoke was all over the sky, and the servants of the Luolian Pavilion were busy in an orderly manner, and the sudden fire alarmed many people. Maybe it was because of the identity of the owner of the Luolian Pavilion, or maybe it was for other reasons, they just watched from a distance. The guards stopped at the door.

β€œ...... What are you going to do?" Ivan glanced at Christina.

Now that Miss Villiers had reverted to aristocratic arrogance, she was half-lying in a chair covered with velvet blankets, as if she were enjoying a play that had nothing to do with herself, and there was a rather poignant and terrifying style to watch the broken buildings loom in the black smoke.

Having said that, the house in the Lorraine Pavilion is really sturdy, and at least half of it is still standing. The gardeners had brought in the devices for watering, and smoke was billowing everywhere, and there seemed to be a fire where Balland had fallen, making it impossible to get close.

"What to do?" said Christina, the corners of her mouth curled up with interest, "the people out there? whatever they think, I don't care. Tell me about you. When did Joan disappear, where was she before she disappeared, who did she meet?"

At this time, Carlo was standing behind Christina, less than ten meters away from her. Although Carlo never showed any signs of believing in Christina...... Christina, likely, didn't care much.

"I heard that she went to investigate the Augustus Chamber of Commerce. Ivan thinks it's better to explain it directly. Since Carlo had heard it all, there was no point in hiding it from him.

"What?" Christina's eyes widened in astonishment, "The Augustus Chamber of Commerce? She went to investigate the Augustus Chamber of Commerce? Why? Was it a mission from the Wizard Alliance, or did she hear something?"

"Not a task. I don't know how, but anyway...... Anyway, she went to investigate. Raven had met with the president of the Augustan Chamber of Commerce before...... Is it?" explained Ivan.

Christina paused for a moment, pursed her lips, and after a moment of silence, she shrugged.

"Who knows if that news is true or not. I don't have anything to do with that stupid bird......" Christina pinched her chin, "Joan wants to investigate the Chamber of Commerce......? That...... What happened before that?"

"You haven't been in touch with the crow all this time?" said Ivan, surprised.

"Of course not......," Christina sighed and closed her eyes, "I just had a private relationship with the intelligence merchants of the Chamber of Commerce, but I didn't hear of it at all......"

After thinking for a moment, Christina put her hand down. The expression became a little more serious.

"Now, I can only go to Ode City first. Christina's gaze unconsciously moved into the distance, "That woman, I remember that she was quite reasonable, she shouldn't have done anything drastic, right?"

"What is an excesse...... Ivan could finish when he suddenly noticed that there was not a trace of blood on Christina's face.

"Everyone is very uneasy right now, and I can't guarantee what will happen. Christina said and stood up, "So." It's better to leave as soon as possible, you two, and come with me to Josstrey Palace. ”

Carlo's face was as pale as Christina's.

There is no doubt that Christina, the Augustan Chamber of Commerce, and Prince Rey Vincent Electrics, who calls himself the "Rogue Raven", have some kind of connection to each other. Xiulin disappeared in order to investigate the Augustan Chamber of Commerce, but the people who knew the secrets of the Augustan Chamber of Commerce were always tight-lipped, and the place was full of conspiracy.

However...... I still have to be silent for the time being.

"You don't have to be so wary. Christina turned to Carlo. "I know you don't believe me, but. One thing I can guarantee. Her Majesty Queen Isabella Jane Ollivander has nothing to do with us and knows only Christine Martir Villiers, Duke of Loren. Oh yes, she does know that I'm an illegal sorcerer, but she doesn't know anything else. ”

Carlo didn't say a word, staring intently at Christina. Christina stared at him without fear.

"Besides, with this idiot, you don't have to worry about your own safety, right?" Christina tilted her head suddenly, and raised her hand to Ivan with a smile, "If you don't have an opinion." Let's go. Josephineβ€”"

Christina was about to call her maid when Carlo spoke.

"You said you couldn't disturb the Queen. Carlo's dark cyan pupils were wary.

"Yes, I did. Christina was a little surprised, "Hmm...... By the time we got ready and arrived at the Josterre Palace, it was already morning. You ......" Christina's gaze wandered involuntarily.

"Anyway, decide for yourself what to do. ”

......

When the sun returns to the earth, a black carriage with a striking sapphire water lily coat of arms stops in the Dawn Square outside the Jostre Palace.

Due to Christina's special status, the guards at the sentry post were soon allowed to let go, and the carriage traveled all the way to the backyard of the Jostre Palace. This fairytale-like castle is as beautiful as ever. On New Year's Day, they only went to the Hall of Ten Thousand Flowers in the Josterre Palace.

Now a sea of flowers spreads out in front of you, and Her Majesty's elegant sleeping palace is nestled among the flowers.

The young Queen Isabella was already waiting in the drawing-room.

"I'm in a hurry, Isabella. After the servants withdrew from the meeting room, Christina immediately put away the politeness and politeness of the nobles, and Queen Isabella's original dignified and calm expression also changed.

"I know, dear Christina. "Sit down and talk slowly, guys, tell me what's going on." ”

Ivan and Carlo had already changed into clean clothes, but the tiredness and anxiety could not be concealed, not to mention that Carlo's injury had not yet healed, and Christina had not fully recovered. Christina walked quickly up to Isabella and, despite the fact that there were outsiders here, grabbed Isabella's hand.

The two of them were very close friends.

"-- Mr. Milton told me before, then, is 'that thing' settled?"

After listening to Christina's account, Queen Isabella quickly regained her composure, after all, even at the age of nineteen, she was still the ruler of a country. She naturally shifted her gaze to the two guests from the Wizarding Alliance, and there was a majesty in her gaze.

Obviously, Isabella already knew about Christina's report.

"Isabella, that doesn't matter, now we're temporary companions. Christina pressed the shoulder of Isabella's gown, "You can help me, right? ”

"But, Christina, I'm worried. Isabella frowned, "The executor of the Magic Alliance has suddenly disappeared, and you ......"

She paused, swallowed what she wanted to say, and changed to a more serious tone.

"I can grant all your requests, however, I do not agree with you to go to the kingdom of Ola. (To be continued......)

PS: P.S. I was already busy when I had a cold before I got better, and I'm afraid it will only get busier in the future, maybe it will get better after a while. Thank you again for your patience.
