Section 227 Notice

"Then the general......

"Robin, find a way to get me some maps...... Detailed map of northeastern Gruny. If you look for the church sticks, they must have maps like that. Bayrell said. "I may need to recuperate for seven or eight days...... These few days will be a precious time for us. ”

"General, do you want to ...... Have you changed your plans?"

"Yes, a lot of things need to change. Bayrell said. Suddenly, he felt that the pain in his crotch was worth it. Seven or eight days...... No, it will take five or six days, and he should be able to come up with a suitable, realistic plan.

When he thought so, Rhodia's smiling face couldn't help but come to mind. Before going through all this himself, he really didn't expect such a seemingly completely harmless woman to ...... Well, in fact, he was too careless to avoid that dangerous kick.

"By the way, Robin, one more thing. You have to lodge a formal protest on my behalf against the official Gruni assassination that I have encountered. Bayrell said. "At the same time, let them make a public statement that they will not happen again. ”

"Your Excellency, what is this for? Didn't Prime Minister Ellene personally apologize to you? And he personally promised you?"

"Yes, that's privately. This time we're going to ...... Plan ahead and bring a little sweetness to the church by the way. Bayral didn't care if Robin understood it or not, and immediately changed the subject. "In addition, I would like to remind the church that since the cultists of the Evil God of Eagle Falcon City were able to organize such an action, it means that there must be a higher-level leader among them. Of course, this church should have guessed, but it's certainly true. ”

......

At the door of the small villa in the aristocratic quarter, a man in uniform was knocking rhythmically on the door. There was no need for anything else, as could be seen from his clothing, that the man was a servant of some nobleman. And it is not uncommon for a servant to come to the door with a name tag (which is also a step for the nobles to officially visit others), and it is not worth special attention.

The door was opened. Appearing at the doorway was an old woman dressed in dark clothes with a paintbrush in her hand. This person is none other than Countess Marianne, who has recently become famous in Eagle Falcon City. It is rumored that this old lady actually has a leg with the current Prime Minister Irynne (the two of them are indeed a class match in age). Well, although most people don't quite agree with this kind of rumor, but the rumor is not only eliminated, at least in this lace news is becoming more and more exaggerated, and it actually spreads with noses and eyes, and even the date time of the two people has been shaken out.

"Is it the Countess Marianne?" asked the servant politely. Judging by his posture, looks, and the details of his courteous movements, the man must have been well-educated. And if you can educate all your servants, it can only be a truly rich and noble family.

"It's me. Aunt Mary nodded. She was an experienced person, although when she was in Brassian, she let her servants do everything for her. But there were no servants (the villa was too small to accommodate a few extra servants), and she was able to handle everything with ease. It only takes one glance for Aunt Mary to know the whole thing. "Who is your master?"

The servant did not answer, but politely offered an envelope with both hands.

The envelope was clean, with no signatures or aristocratic coats of arms - it didn't look like a post asking for a meeting, nor did it look like an invitation to a ball, a banquet, or something like that.

"Countess Marianne, please allow me to take my leave. The servant bowed politely, and left.

Aunt Mary was a little strange, but she couldn't react for a moment. She closed the door and opened the envelope.

The contents of the letter were strange, and although it was given to her, it was actually addressed to Ashrufat. The letter invited Ashruphat to meet at a certain location in Eagle City at a certain time.

During this time, the arrival of General Bayrell (and his subsequent assassination) has managed to attract the attention of public opinion throughout Eagle City. This made the matter of Ashrufat unexpectedly unnoticed for a while. Of course, this is also temporary, as long as there is a push from someone who cares, the focus of public opinion can come back at any time.

"It's kind of weird. Aunt Mary looked at the letter over and over again. What was that? Then she suddenly realized that there was more than one piece of stationery in the envelope. Specifically, in addition to the never-ending letter in Aunt Mary's hand, there was a much smaller piece of paper—not a letter anymore, but a note.

"Dear Count Ashrufat," wrote a line on the note in a clear and upright handwriting. "If you've already received a magical communication, be sure to come to your appointment. This is an opportunity to take your destiny and that of your country into your own hands. ”

......

“...... Shameless man!" Rhodia snapped out softly from between her lips.

"But luckily he didn't die. The little girl had a relaxed expression on her face. Although Bayor is worthless in Rhodia's mouth, if he dies, it will probably cause a terrible storm. Even if she is a queen, it is difficult for her to bear it.

"But as you said, cheeky people are hard to deal with. The little girl asked.

"That's right, it's hard to deal with that thick skin. Rhodia admitted. "Fire and water are invulnerable, invulnerable. ”

The two of them were sitting in the makeshift palace, in the room belonging to the little girl. Even a little girl has to admit that her ability as a temporary teacher is far more than just asking for all kinds of news for her and providing all kinds of counselor advice. This time, Bayral's assassination was all up to Rhodia to help, otherwise the consequences would be really unpredictable.

In fact, recently, all the ministers in the court have been using various ways, either explicitly or implicitly, to remind the little girl that a character like Rhodia with a dishonorable background and a complicated background is extremely unsuitable for the position of the queen's teacher. But all kinds of realities show that at least from the perspective of the little girl, Rhodia's role is irreplaceable.

"I heard...... Béral seems to be injured?" asked the little girl with great interest. Once the worry in his heart was gone, he remembered something else. Ellen brought it up. ”

"Let his eggs hurt!" said Rothea hatefully. This sentence implies too much information. With an instinct, the little girl understood the cause of Bayor's injury.

"By the way, Your Majesty, why is there more vase today?" asked Rodia, pointing to the new furnishings in the middle of the table. The shape of the vase is not unusual, but the surface of this vase seems to have a flowing luster that makes it look indescribably delicate.

"Beautiful, isn't it?" said the little girl. "Someone sent it. ”

"It's ...... The effect of magic?"

"Yes," replied the little girl. "The people of the church have identified. It is the vase that is enchanted with it...... But this is not eternal magic. The magician said that the vase would last for many days, perhaps for a month. ”

"It's weird...... Rhodia knew very well that the price of using magic was not cheap. "Who's going to send something like that?"

"I don't know what to do. The little girl replied. "It's a bit strange about this thing, someone commissioned the Chamber of Commerce to send this vase, but it didn't say who the person who sent it was. However, the magician decided that there was no harm in this item and suggested that I take it. Oh, and by the way, the vase also comes with a note. Just on the edge of the table. ”

Rhodia saw the note with some curiosity. It was a picture with no beginning and no end, but two lines of words were written in a very square font, which was two times. The time of the above line is tomorrow evening.

"Tomorrow night?" said Rhodia curiously. "What does that mean? Wait...... I remember ......"

"I don't know what to do. The little girl replied, "But the magician assures me that this bottle has no offensive or destructive powers. ”

"It's weird......" Rhodia said. The bottle was shiny, but for some reason it made her feel uneasy. "Well, today someone sent me a letter as well. ”

"A letter?" the little girl looked away from the vase and looked at Rhodia.

"Yes, a letter," replied Rhodia. "It's a strange letter, it's written to me, but it's for me to relay. ”

"Tell me?" the little girl looked puzzled.

"Tell you and Ashrufat. Rhodia said. "It was also an appointment at a time. I thought it was just a pointless joke, but it was ...... The time is the same. ”

The little girl was even more puzzled. If you have something to do with the queen, you should be able to ask for an audience directly, so why be so sneaky?

"Judging by the situation, there should be a person...... Or two people who are going to meet you and Ashrufat separately. There wasn't much difference in time. And these mysterious people want a private meeting, at least not for a third person to know. ”

"Ashrufat, how does this have anything to do with him?"

"Yes, but there's something weird. Rhodia looked at the vase. "The message to Ashrufat is a time and a place, but it is only time and no place for you. Perhaps," she said, looking at the wonderful sheen on the vase. "It's about vases. ”

"Is it at that time that something will appear here in the vase?" the little girl asked curiously. She also looked at the vase again, the magician of the church had assured her that the vase was safe, and although the vase carried magic, its magic was not constant, and it would disappear in a month at most. In addition, it can be affirmed that there is no destructive or lethal element in the magic.

......

"Ashrufat, this is really strange!" said Akin. However, in Ashrufat's opinion, Ajinke was not at all uneasy, on the contrary, he was full of interest. "You say, how can anyone be willing to pay such unjust money?"

Ah Jin held a stack of banknotes in his hand. These are all real Geolis.

"Someone asked you to send me a message just to let me attend a private meeting?" Ashrufat asked rhetorically. He knew Ah Jin well, so it was surprising to understand this. If anyone wants to see him, does he need to be so mysterious? and give Ah Jin thousands of quill to pass on the message?

"Yes, and what's even more amazing is that the other party only asked me to bring the words. As for whether you agree or not, or whether you go, that's not my business. Ah Jin shook the money in his hand. "I really can't imagine that there is such a good deal in this world. ”

Ashrufat was also surprised. He had already seen the letter from Aunt Mary, but it was clear that the mysterious messenger was worried that there might be something unexpected about a single letter, so he arranged for Ah Jin to come and give a second notice.

"Ah Jin, do you think these thousands of gold Ori are normal, according to your standards of honest businessmen?"
