Chapter 66: A Busy Night
After leaving the Tonghe Road, Valera quickly came to the vicinity of Makarov's house, three blocks away.
Although she decided to let go of the docks, there were still some people she couldn't worry about.
Makarov is one of them.
After pondering her next words outside, Valera infiltrated the house and appeared as Lexa.
As yesterday, the conversation took place in the study.
"Makarov, I've got things done."
Suddenly a sound sounded and interrupted Makarov's drawing.
However, with his mental preparation, his reaction this time was significantly smaller.
"You've got the problem solved?" Makarov turned around and said in an agitated tone, "Will the 'Workers' Union Party' soon return to its former state?" β
Valera was silent and did not speak.
"Isn't it?"
"Isn't it?"
"Is it ......?"
After a few follow-ups, Makarov calmed down.
"Hard?" He asked.
"It's hard," Valeera repeated in a low tone, "it's not Malke's problem alone. β
"He's just an advocate."
"The forces behind him are crazy and powerful, and I am no match for them at all."
"I can solve this problem, maybe next time, or even next time, but ...... As long as they don't give up, I'm going to fail. β

"Alasβ" Makarov sighed deeply.
"I see," he said, "and in that case, don't be too yourself." β
"You've done a great job."
"At least ...... 'Workers' Union Party' has played a role, even if it hasn't been for long."
Valera nodded silently.
After a few moments, she asked, "Makarov, do you live here alone?" β
"yes."
Makarov sighed, "My wife has been dead for many years. β
"I also have a daughter."
"In May of the previous year, shortly after graduating from technical school, she married her classmate and moved to the Roths Islands last year."
"So yes," Makarov concluded, "I live here alone. β
Valera thought for a moment and said:
"You can't stay in the 'Workers' Union Party' any longer."
"It won't be long before Marc stops caring about your prestige, and he'll do to you the same way he did Burton."
"yes, I know." Makarov snorted and replied, "But I can only stay here." β
"I don't know anything other than ship repair."
As he spoke, Makarov looked at Valeera, laughed at himself, and asked:
"Do you want to tell me that you've found me a good place?"
It wasn't funny, but Valera laughed along.
"Hah, really."
She went on to say:
"I know a warm-hearted and kind lady who has only recently returned to Beckland and is in the process of assembling a team of servants."
"I'm going to put you and Burton in."
"You can rest assured that you won't be mistreated with her, I can guarantee that."
After hearing this, Makarov couldn't help frowning.
"Alas," he sighed, "if I had been willing to be a servant, you would not have known me." β
"In that case, I will move to the Rothde Islands with my daughter last year."
Makarov was very arrogant, which was supposed to be a good thing, but it gave Valera a headache.
She can't just blow herself up, right...... Gotta think of a suitable reason to convince him.
After a moment of silence, Valera spoke again:
"Makarov, I think you should be qualified for such a position as a family property administrator."
"Although it is nominally a servant, it is not much different from the work of ordinary workers and your shipwright."
"And I promise, that lady is really very helpful and kind, even if you want to leave one day, she won't stop you."
Valera wasted a lot of time and nearly half of her spirit before she persuaded the somewhat stubborn Makarov to change his mind.
Of course, this is also because she does not have the ability to use "persuasion".
She gave the matter of contacting Burton to the changed Makarov, and asked him to go with Burton as soon as possible to the "Metropolitan Helping Domestic Servants Society" in Jowood, and go to her housekeeper, Kana.
β¦β¦
After leaving Makarov's house, Valera took a detour to a large cemetery called "Karst" on the outskirts of the Northern District.
After a simple infiltration and search, Valilla evades the cemetery's caretakers and steals a coffin for sale in the basement of the cemetery's office building.
Then, carrying the coffin, she ran all the way to Qili's ancestral home on Williams Street in the West End.
With the help of the "True Heart" hair, Valiera directly manipulated double the number of invisible silk threads to completely lift the soil layer on Qili's body.
Seeing Qili's face again, Valeera still felt heartache.
It's as if Qi Li is still casting a "heartbeat" curse on her like before.
She couldn't help but reach out and rub Qili's delicate face through the ice.
It took a while for her to put Qili's body, along with the ice coffin, which had shrunk a lot, into a wooden coffin and reburial.
Valeera sat for a long time by the wooden cross.
After recovering from her daze, she slightly touched up the rough wooden cross, carved some patterns into it, and gave it a worn-in appearance.
Finally, before leaving, she cleaned up some of the subtle traces she had left behind.
Valera returns to her upscale hotel in the Hillston district in the middle of the night.
At this time, she was physically and mentally exhausted.
After feeding Harpy, she quickly fell into a deep sleep with the help of meditation techniques.
β¦β¦
The next day, eight o'clock in the morning.
Although she had only rested for about four hours, Valera recovered and got up refreshed.
After she had dressed up and gone upstairs to the dining room for breakfast, the housekeeper Kana arrived.
Valilla remembered about Makarov and Burton, and immediately told Kana that a friend had recommended two suitable servants for her, and she needed to keep an eye out for the self-recommenders.
Afterward, Kana tells Valilla that there are two male butlers who meet the requirements and are already waiting for an interview at the cafΓ© downstairs.
Next, she briefly introduced the situation of the two housekeepers:
The first, Mr. David Mansfeldt, 49 years old, had served Viscount Stout for a long time, but after the death of the old Viscount Stott due to a sudden illness last year, he was angered by the successor Viscount and the second son of the old Viscount, and the personal valet of the old Viscount, as well as some servants, were forced to leave in a short period of time. Because of this incident, he also became unpopular and was unable to find a new employer.
He asked for an annual salary of Β£120.
the second, Mr. Jeffrey Parkhurst, 52, who had served with Baron Bradley, but Mr. Parkhurst, whose service expired last year, was not renewed by the new Baron; After leaving the baron's house, he was hired by a wealthy merchant, but in the previous month, the family had moved to East Byrand, and Mr. Parkhurst was reluctant to leave Backerland, so he offered to resign. β
He asked for an annual salary of Β£110.
After listening to the information about the two butlers, Valera naturally inclined to choose the first one.
The reason is simple.
Because the real cause of death of the old Viscount Stott was acute gas poisoning, which was due to her murder.
In other words, Davey's butler was implicated by her.
