Chapter 17: Make up your mind
The sky was completely dark, starry, and the waning moon shimmered.
Fei'er stood by the window of the study room, looking at the night.
The blue eyes under the golden hair, unwavering, and the petite body leaned against the window railing.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door of footsteps outside the library.
"Come in."
It was An Li who came in, and An Li came to Fei'er's side.
"Miss Raya, the town gates are closed on both sides."
The corners of Fei'er's mouth couldn't help but rise slightly, and her mood suddenly became beautiful.
She stretched and moaned cutely.
An Li's mind couldn't turn around, and she couldn't help but blame: "That knight just sent a letter, why hasn't he come back yet, and let Miss Raya wait for so long!" Tomorrow I will go to him and talk to him, so I don't take Miss Raya's orders seriously. ”
"There's no need." Fei'er returned to the desk, looked at Xu Siling's letter and the soup recipe spread out, her small fingers pinched the turtle armor and looked at it: "I don't have to go to him tomorrow, but... If anyone comes to you and asks about him, you say that you don't know, but that you are at my command to send the knight out of town, and you don't know anything else. If in doubt, let John come to me. ”
"Yes!" An Li subconsciously obeyed, but her mind still didn't turn a corner.
She often felt that she was too stupid, and felt guilty for not being able to help Fei'er, and kept thinking that if she had been smarter, maybe Fei'er's current situation would not be so difficult.
Fei'er couldn't hold back her happiness, as if she had gotten some kind of toy.
"Tomorrow I will take a soup recipe and cook it according to the process of letters, I will taste it."
An Li was surprised: "How can this work...!" ”
"Just do it." Fei'er snorted lightly, as if humming a tune, and whispered to herself: "Trust is courtesy, if he is really my person, he will naturally not harm me..."
Phil tossed the letter to Ann Li and walked out of the library.
"I'm resting, you can rest early, Anli, I have other things for you to do tomorrow."
"Huh?" An Li was puzzled, "The knight hasn't come back yet, maybe he was delayed by other things, even if the city gate is closed, he can open it as a knight, what if he comes back later." ”
"If you want to wait for him to come back, just wait."
Fei'er smiled and shook her head, too lazy to persuade this An Li, who couldn't turn her brain.
It's just a letter, especially if there is only one sentence on it, and it doesn't take much time to go back and forth.
Now the gates are completely closed, and no one has returned.
That can only mean one thing, he will never come back.
She had seen Xu Siling's sword skills the night before, and it should be no problem to attack and kill an unsuspecting knight.
As for Finney, of course, he wanted to finish the letter as soon as possible and then come back to take the other letter from Phil's hand, and give the two letters to Johns together.
But Finney's fact that he hasn't returned until now only shows that her executioner, Mr. Executioner, has made the right decision.
Her letter was just a short sentence without a beginning or an end, even if Xu Siling hadn't killed Finney, the two letters would definitely be confusing when they arrived in John's hands.
So she wasn't afraid that Xu Siling would cause other trouble because she didn't do it, but instead... If Xu Siling handed over an answer that satisfied her, she also had to keep Xu Siling from getting into trouble.
Fei'er left the bookstore, leaving Ann Li alone scratching her head stupidly.
...
"Knight-sama!"
Finney had just walked not far when he was suddenly stopped by Xu Siling.
He turned around unhappily and saw Xu Siling smiling at the door of the wooden fence.
"What! If there's a fart, I can't stay in your place for a minute. ”
"I have some gifts here, and I hope you will bring them to Miss Raya."
"Huh? What are you kidding, you're treating me like an errand? ”
"Of course not."
Xu Siling motioned for Finney to come back, then took out all the coins on his body and stuffed them all into Finney's hand.
"You—" Seeing the coin in hand, the sense of fullness made Finney stunned.
"After all, how can a lowly person like me have the opportunity to come into contact with the noble Miss Raya? Now I finally have the opportunity to get in touch with a few points, of course I hope..."Xu Siling didn't continue later, but he understood everything.
Finney immediately showed a look of understanding, and chuckled and snorted: "People like you just have a lot of ghost ideas." ”
"I'm sorry to trouble the knight."
"No trouble." Fennimo took the coin in his hand and quickly stuffed it into his arms, saying that he would help Xu Siling with this.
Xu Siling raised his eyebrows: "Why don't you go into the house first?" I'll give you a gift. ”
"Don't, I don't want to go into your filthy place, hurry up and bring my things, I have to rush back, and the city gate will be closed later."
Seeing that he couldn't be coaxed in, Xu Siling was not annoyed, and hurriedly entered the house with a smile.
As soon as she entered the house, Falina trembled in the corner, and Xu Siling put her index finger between her lips to signal her to be quiet.
Xu Siling came to the bedside and opened the box under the bed for storing things, which were all more valuable things that had been taken from the corpse, and they had not yet had a chance to sell to the miller.
He casually took out a few bright accessories, then went to the weapon rack and removed the mace that he had just bought.
He tried to pin it behind his waist, but the weight couldn't do it, and he couldn't hide it when he went out.
Having a one-handed sword at the waist to protect oneself was normal in the medieval wilderness.
But if Finney finds out that he has a mace around his waist...
Xu Siling couldn't help but be speechless.
Finney was almost fully armed, and it was difficult to kill him with a single blow with a one-handed sword.
In fact, there are two main reasons why he made the decision to kill Finney.
One is because of Fei'er, Fei'er is her friend after all, she must want to regain the management of Raya Town in her own hands when she becomes an adult, and she doesn't want outsiders to get involved.
No matter what Fei'er's reason for killing Finney is, at least Fei'er is already asking for help, and if she doesn't help with this, her friends won't be able to do it in the future.
But not to mention this, what really gave Xu Siling confidence was the personal information that Fei'er showed the night before...
He also recalled this incident, when he looked at Fei'er's personal information before, he was stunned by Fei'er's 'atheist' for a long time, which made him ignore one of Fei'er's skills - [Chengfu].
What does it mean that he has senior-level city skills at a young age?
She's not a normal little girl, she's ambitious and scheming.
Since she chose to kill Finney herself, it also shows that she has a way to deal with the negative effects caused by Finney's death.
On your information window, the number of friends is still 1.
It shows that Fei'er still regards herself as a friend and has no intention of selling him.
Phil wanted to believe in herself, so she asked him to help dispose of Finney.
It's time to respond to Phil's trust.
Not to mention...
Finney is a condemned man!
Walking skill experience bar, especially a knight.
As soon as his head drops, how much skill reward do I have to get?
