Chapter 400: Worry

Leon and Don chatted as they slowly walked back.

Erin smiled, "I see that you guys are talking quite speculatively, are you going to rebuild the castle soon?"

This question was an excuse for the two of them to leave, Li Ang nodded, and said very seriously: "I just learned some knowledge from Earl Donne, and the next step is to entrust Earl to recruit some craftsmen for me, as long as there are enough manpower and construction materials, it should be possible to rebuild after a while." ”

"That's great," Erin smiled even more, "to have a full-fledged castle is a sign of lordship and strength, and with the help of Earl Donn, you might soon be able to start building it, by the way......!

Soon, the following topic was brought to her travels by the mage girl Qingyi, and since Leon and Earl Don had reached some kind of agreement, they would not say anything more here, and listened to Erin's vivid description with relish.

After a while, the young man apologized again and left, and walked to the side of the wooden house, where Eric immediately greeted him.

"How's it going, did you find it?" asked Leon.

"No," Eric frowned, "I've asked all the farmers who are working outside, and there are twelve people who have seen Miss Sophia today, all in the northern part of the manor, the first person to see Sophia was in that flower garden, and the last person to see her was on the northwest side of the river, more than two hours ago. ”

"Northwest ......" Leon called up the map to zoom in on Eric's description, and then he calculated the approximate location in two and a half hours, and pulled the map northwest again.

"Reconnaissance," Li Ang said silently.

In front of his eyes, the flat ground, the plants swaying slightly in the breeze, the trees with yellowing branches and leaves, and other extremely real scenes were all in his mind, but there was no Sophia.

Thinking about it, on the premise of not knowing where Sophia is going, it is not very promising to judge her location with only a little information, and Leon's move is just a knee-jerk reaction to try to find Sophia.

The young man withdrew from the feedback in his mind, he thought for a moment, and said: "Mobilize all the mercenaries, pick out those who can ride horses, let them set off first on horseback, and let the rest of the people let the regiment leaders each search along the northwest side, you arrange the route of these people to ensure that the entire area north of the manor can be covered." ”

"Find another person to ride in the direction of the forest to meet those elves, and tell SΓΉ Singal to send two rangers over to help......" Leon paused for a moment and continued: "If you haven't found Sophia within two hours, come back and tell me immediately, and I will personally lead someone to find it!"

"Yes!" Eric said with a stern expression, and then he found several mercenary captains to convey Leon's order. Soon, the mercenaries began to leave from all over the venue, gathering behind the wooden house on the side of Manor Avenue.

"What's wrong?" asked Red and the two mountain folk heads as they walked over to Leon.

Leon briefly told them about the situation, and Red gradually frowned.

"I'll go," he said.

"No, you stay here for a while, and if you still don't find anything in a while, I'll take you with me. ”

Yelena looked at Menshak, took a step forward and said, "My lord, I can join the search with the mountain people." ”

Leon shook his head, "You guys aren't very familiar with Campbell when you first arrived, and you haven't met Sophia yet, so you don't need to go, not to mention that if I leave with someone later, I need you to help me guard the safety of the manor." ”

"Since you've arranged everything, I'll just wait, hopefully...... There will be no surprises," Red muttered.

"No," Leon smiled, "and it's possible that this girl ran away on a whim, so don't worry too much." ”

After the young man finished speaking, he walked towards Kaka, and as he turned around, the smile on his face disappeared little by little, and a trace of worry appeared in his face.

The alchemy master was still eating and drinking on the side at this time, and when he heard a few words whispered in his ear by Li Ang, he slowly put down the plate and said suspiciously: "It is said that Sophia, this girl, will not leave for so long for no reason, is it because she found something of interest and couldn't find the direction after running away?"

Just now Leon was comforting others with this excuse, but now Kaka is using the same method to comfort him, Leon couldn't help but sigh: "I hope so, but now the situation is unknown, I have to prepare in advance, in case Sophia really disappears for no reason...... I'll take some of it to follow her trails, for a longer or shorter time, and then you can pay more attention to the affairs of the manor. ”

"Well, don't worry, I deliberately let Jeff and Eric hone their things in those kid matters two days ago, so I haven't interfered, if Sophia is really like you said, it is estimated that someone is going to target you, so I won't let them go if anyone wants to come here to make trouble. ”

What Kaka said was exactly what the young man was worried about, Sophia herself was an orphan and could be said to have little to do with the outside world, and if she really disappeared, it would almost certainly be because of Leon, so Leon was in a bad mood right now.

However, he suppressed his feelings and continued to talk to Kaka for a few words, explaining some things before finally returning to the wine table where Tang En and his party were.

"Count Leon, is there something going on?" said Done, who had already noticed the strange situation in the meeting, "if you have something to do, you can go and get busy, and you don't have to worry about us." ”

"Thank you for your understanding," said Leon, "but I should be able to accompany you to lunch, Jeff, and bring a few guests over first, and we'll be there shortly." ”

Don didn't say much, and Peg and Wayne left the venue under the guidance of Jeff, and before they could fully walk out, Caterina walked quickly to Leon's side and asked in a hurried tone, "Is there something wrong with Sophia!"

"Katerina, relax," Leon patted the girl's shoulder, then looked at Erin, who was also anxious, and said, "Sophia has indeed not returned yet, and she is not near the manor, but I have sent everyone in the mercenary group out, whether they can be found or not, and a reply will take at most two hours." ”

Katerina's eyes had begun to redden, and she opened her mouth and said, "I'm going to ...... too"

Leon interrupted her, "No, if you just find someone, it's enough to send out all the mercenaries, and now there are other things to do, Katerina, think about whether she has mentioned some more noteworthy things to you after you met Sophia, and also, Erin, you also recall, has Sophia been different from the past recently." ”
