Chapter 107: The Meaning of Waiting

A month later, the royal capital, the royal residence.

Heatheria put on a cotton beret, a thick mask around her ears, and deliberately put on a bloated brown cotton suit to make herself look like a stranger in fancy clothes.

She covered her blonde hair tightly, and all her facial features except her eyes were covered under the mask so that others would not see her face.

There is no way, there is no one in the royal capital who does not know her.

As a royal daughter, if she rashly appears in public, even the traffic will be congested and paralyzed.

This is not alarmist, when she went to preside over the ceremony on New Year's Day, the streets were so flooded that her carriage would not have been able to pass through the roads if it were not for the giants and soldiers to maintain order.

Everywhere she walked, there were cheering crowds, and many people crowded forward, just to catch a glimpse of her.

As a royal daughter, her actions have attracted much attention, and the government's star-making activities have been successful.

Especially in business, it is very successful, once it is the product she endorses, the sales will definitely skyrocket, and the price will be doubled without demand, and her personal peripherals, such as the same hair accessories of the princess and daughter, the same shawl or something, are often sold out of stock.

She is now a cash cow for the government, not to mention anything else, at least in terms of image management and the ability to make money, she has already practiced.

After Heatheria wrapped herself all over, she looked in the mirror, and it was very good, she couldn't find any traces of the "princess", this dress on the street, although it was a little strange, but others must not recognize her.

That was enough, she grabbed her little mirror, perfume, comb, and headband, and walked out of the door, leaving the mansion through the hidden back door.

A modest carriage with the insignia of the regiment was parked there.

Heatheria got into the carriage and saw Elwyn sitting upright.

When Erwin saw Heatheria's dress, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and he turned his head.

"Head Erwin, what's wrong with you?"

"Nothing." Erwin turned back with a straight face, looking at the bloated Heatria, "Let's go." ”

Heatheria nodded, and Erwin put his hand out of the carriage and motioned for the coachman to drive.

The horse's hooves sounded on the concrete road, and Erwin asked coldly: "Isn't it hard to be a princess?" ”

"It's okay." Heatheria tilted her head and looked out of the carriage window.

In addition to the horse-drawn carriages that come and go, there are also a number of four-wheeled vehicles on the road, which are trucks made of internal combustion engines, which are currently only used by the government to transport some urgent documents or goods.

Usually small batches of goods that need to be transported faster, although the power of the giant is great, in terms of speed, it is still not comparable to this four-wheeled truck.

In addition to the trucks, there are also "giant buses" on the road.

To put it simply, it is a car pulled by Giant, and the Giant Bus only operates during the day, running back and forth at various stations according to the specified time, and is responsible for transporting people.

From the window of the carriage, you can see the figure of the giant bus.

A five-meter giant bus swept by the road ahead, two five-meter giants, dragging a steel bus, under the command of the giant operator, stopped at the station in front, and then the attendant opened the iron gate, and the crowd got off the bus and got on the bus, and threw coins into the coin box of the bus.

A giant bus can transport hundreds of people, although it is not as fast as a car, but it is faster than a horse-drawn carriage at full speed.

The workers all commute to work by giant bus, and since the giant can only work during the day, the working hours of Parady Island are very stuck, basically, before the sun goes down, all the factories are closed, and there is no excessive overtime.

The general happiness of the inhabitants is high, and a healthy Paradian can easily find a simple job with a decent income, and have enough leisure and recreation time to earn a good salary by studying a little and becoming a senior worker or manipulator.

Heatheria peeks out quietly, street lamp poles stand around the minaret house, and young couples, holding hands, buy snacks at a fried chicken shop.

It's nice that she wants to walk the streets freely too.

But no, on days like this without preparation in advance, once she shows up, it will cause a big sensation, and even the transportation channels of the factory will be blocked.

She didn't have a schedule to go out today, but she really wanted to pick up the car, so she tried to communicate with Erwin.

After walking for a while, the carriage stopped.

Erwin got out of the car first, and then helped Heatheria out of the car.

This is the station of the steam train, the only train station in the royal capital, which shoulders the heavy use of material transportation and personnel transfer.

There were a lot of people around the station, some family members waiting, and some soldiers and workers preparing to take a ride to a mining area or a giant factory.

There was a lot of traffic at the station, and the giants and workers were busy loading and unloading.

Heatheria stood on the platform, a long dragon of iron black spewing white mist at the sound of a shrill whistle, and a steam train departed along the tracks and disappeared towards the end of the endless plain.

Heatheria waited quietly, thinking about every day and night, the last time they met, it was a year ago, when he had stayed briefly in the royal capital to plan the station and the power plant.

At that time, she was busy attending various activities, and she didn't say a few words, but she met in a hurry and separated the two places.

She's always waiting, waiting, waiting, but she doesn't feel any resentment, after all, she's not one of his people.

What is their relationship?

Childhood?

Friend?

pessimistically, it's just a one-sided admiration, it's her own sentimentality and wishful thinking.

But it felt as if he just persevered, and one day, he would go back and stay for himself a little longer.

After all, she did what he told her to be a princess.

The train came, and the streamlined front of the locomotive appeared in Erwin's field of vision.

Erwin looked at the princess who was holding her forehead and asked, "Is the hat too heavy?" ”

"It's a bit of a headache." Heatheria rubbed her forehead: "I'm fine, I've had this situation before, it won't hurt after a while." ”

"Have you checked it out?"

"The doctor said that it may be that he has not rested well, and there is really no problem, Commander."

With that, the train entered the station.

The car slowly stopped, and the soldier opened the door.

Heatheria endured the headache, searched for the figure, and finally saw him.

There were also Mikasa and Allen, who brought the Marais prisoners of war to the royal capital.

This is the final leg of the POWs' journey to Paradis Island, where they will be in the royal capital, where they will be examined and finally decided to be repatriated to Marais.
