54. Lock-up and abandonment
Barton says:
"We can't do anything about the money in Alec's hands, we need to destroy his money chain. ”
Albina says:
"Wright, no way, he's our partner now, and I can't do anything to him. ”
And she's not much of a cruel and bloodthirsty person, and as far as she knows, Wright is also a philanthropist, and she doesn't want to do anything to Wright if it's not very necessary.
Barton says:
"I didn't say I was going to kill him, isn't he cooperating with you, can't you cut off his capital chain?"
Albina chuckled:
"Cut off his financial chain, the money he works with us doesn't affect his property at all. ”
Patton frowned:
"Are you sure? I know he made a deal with George, so it can't be a small sum of money. ”
Albina explains:
"The deal he really made with George wasn't about money at all, and even I didn't have a chance to know what was going on. ”
When Herwin heard this, it seemed that she had a high status in the Knights, but as far as Hewen knew, there was no such person in the Knights.
Barton says:
"Then it's a bit of a problem, we have to find a way not to get Wright to fund Alec anymore, although Alec looks very wary of trading with Wright when he comes back, and I don't know what he paid for, but we can't rule out the possibility. ”
Albina says:
"What can you do?"
Barton pondered a little:
"I'll send someone to collect information, and the day after tomorrow you come back, I'll discuss it with you. ”
Albina agreed:
"Okay, so what do I get? You know, you're not the one I was supposed to work with. ”
Barton gritted his teeth:
"Don't they want power? When we build a church in Wharton, we'll help both of them build a party in Parliament, but it's up to them to become Speaker. ”
Albina asked delightfully:
"Can you really do it?"
Barton says:
"If I can't, you can stop cooperating at any time, and I will report back to the top in the next two days, and when you come the day after tomorrow, I will be able to come up with tangible evidence. ”
Albina smiled:
"Okay, that's a deal. ”
If she could get her hands on the people behind Barton, then their years of sacrifice and hard work would be worth it, and she would be able to ......
The two ended their conversation, and Barton walked toward the chapel, while Albina left the back door of the church as usual.
Hervin didn't think long before he followed Albina.
She left the church and skillfully navigated the pathway, avoiding the main road where the carriage traveled and the crowded neighborhood.
Then she took advantage of the fact that there was no one around, and quickly slipped into a dilapidated house, and Herwin followed her inside.
The cramped house has only one bed, two kinds of tables, and a few shelves, and although it has been disguised as much as possible, it is also a little less popular.
Albina lifted the wooden bed with one hand, and there was a silver-white standard armor inside.
In a few clicks, she put the entire armor on her body, including the near-airtight helmet.
Herwin had already guessed where Albina was going next.
Sure enough, after Albina left the house, she walked straight in the direction of the Pure White Tower.
George was still in the Pure White Tower, and Herwin followed her to a stop a block from the Knight's Tower.
It seems that the person behind Albina should be in the Pure White Tower, and Adams has been in the knights' camp all year round, so the traitor is likely to be Mayo.
And Albina's relationship with Mayo should be very close, even the most core secrets of the Knights Mayo will share with her, and can negotiate with the church on his behalf, but he is trusted by him for his loyalty and ability.
So now it's time to go back, and Hola is still waiting for him to eat.
Herwin turned.
Then he came down the street to the door of the house.
He clutched his left chest, and the time overlap had spread again, and he had to speed up, and if he couldn't, he would have to try to grab it.
He opened the door and stepped inside.
The girl who was lying on the sofa reading a book, as soon as she heard the sound of the door opening, immediately got up and rushed in front of him.
Before Herwin could speak, Hara was keenly aware of something.
The girl asked:
"Herwin, Herwin, what's going on?"
Hewen waved his hand:
"It's just a little thing, has Tanya cooked her meal?"
When Hola heard Hewen say this, she obediently didn't ask more:
"Well, Sister Tanya is ready. ”
Although Tanya has worked in various places, her cooking skills are average and she can make good things, but that's all.
You know, other wealthy people have professional chefs, whether it's exotic or local cuisine, they can get their hands on it.
But fortunately, Hewen does not have high requirements for food.
The girl took the dishes out of the kitchen and put them on the dining table, wiping the sweat from her forehead.
Today's dinner was more hearty, vegetable stew, white bread, steak, roast leg of lamb, fried eggs.
and the store-bought chocolate cake, which is Hara's dessert, and she doesn't care about getting fat or health at all.
Tanya also sat down.
This was something that made the maiden and her gratitude that Hervin allowed her to eat with them, and it was the same food.
According to Herwen's request, she bought the same amount as the two of them for herself, but she would not finish it, but would bring some back to her sister every night.
One thing she didn't know, though, was that Herwin had been using magic to influence her, and that she was now strong enough to be immune to most of the mental abilities.
Including Hara's passive temptation, the girl's temptation is not purely by interfering with other people's brains, but by transforming the appearance that others like the most, don't want to hurt or fall in love with the most, as well as make various demeanors and small actions.
Only when using the transformation ability, the temptation of Hara will be opened to the maximum, and the ability is not too strong when it is not transformed.
Hara muttered as she struggled to stuff the bone-in roast leg of lamb into her little mouth:
"Wright, Tanya's sister is reading, what is reading?"
Herwin divides the steak with a knife:
"Reading is about going to a place and learning all kinds of things together, and there will be teachers there to teach them. ”
Hola raised her hand excitedly and said:
"I know the teacher, the protagonists in the novel have a great teacher, can the teachers in the school also teach me swordsmanship?"
Hervin says:
"Universities do have such courses, but they still need to teach theoretical knowledge, such as mathematics, history, chemistry, philosophy, and the emerging psychology. ”
The little girl's eyes lit up:
"Wow, there's so much stuff. ”
Hora turned to Tanya:
"Isn't it fun to go to class?"
Tanya gave a look of envy:
"A lot of people think it's boring to go to class and study, but I've always wanted to go to school, but I don't have the opportunity. ”
After saying that, Tanya smiled softly.
Hara asked:
"Sister Tanya, isn't your sister studying, why don't you go?"
Tanya patiently explained:
"It costs money to study, and our handouts are not enough to support two people to study, and if I don't work, I probably won't be able to study for anyone. ”
Speaking of this, Tanya smiled gently:
"Miss Alice, you may not know, in fact, I also went to elementary school, but my parents abandoned us when I was very young, leaving only the two of us. ”
Instead of talking, Hora jumped out of her chair and walked over to Tanya, silently hugging her.
Hola whispered:
"Sister, I know it must feel bad to be left behind, and if it weren't for Wright, I'd be left behind. ”
Tanya didn't expect that Hara, who was the eldest lady in the eyes of outsiders, would say such a thing, and even looked at Herwin with a little more admiration in her eyes.
Herwin continued to cut the steak with his head down.
