During the time that Kino was in the palace, except for the meeting convened by Perseus to follow up on matters related to Danyu City, the rest of the time was quite leisurely, and could even be said to be a bit boring.

Because Perseus may summon him at any time, Kino cannot leave the palace. However, apart from the superior material conditions, life in the palace is very monotonous. Fortunately, he has a hobby of playing the piano and reading. The palace has the most accurately tuned piano and a large library with books.

There are endless books to keep people from getting bored.

Solandel also seemed to know that Kino was very bored during this period, so after returning home from school every day and eating, she would run to Kino's mansion, and sometimes play war games with him and ask for relevant experience.

Share with him what you see and hear in school.

Since being "trained" by Chino last time, Solandel's skills in war games have improved by leaps and bounds. She is not only proficient in tactics, but also has strategic thinking. She is able to do both large-scale global deductions and small-scale battle deductions with ease.

According to the teachers in the school, Solandel tortured all the noble classmates in her class, and they were all crushed unilaterally. Even if the top students from the poor classes came to compete with her, only a few people could compete with her.

Comparable.

Bolton was overjoyed when he heard about this, and he came to see his sister in great interest to try to "compete" with her.

The final result was of course that Solandel won, but Bolton obviously let the situation slip. If he relied on his true ability to deduce the situation, Solandel would definitely be unable to fight back.

This is not surprising. If Solandel can defeat Bolton unilaterally based on what she has learned in school in the past few years, plus some extracurricular training, then Bolton, a general, is too cheap.

That night, after dinner at home, Solandel came to Kino's residence as usual, and brought a small bag of wheat.

Kino opened the bag and took a look and recognized that it was a century-old wheat. He asked with some confusion: "Why did you bring these century-old wheat?"

Solandel pursed her lips and whispered: "I heard about Danyu City. The century-old wheat in the strategic reserve has been shipped to Danyu City as relief grain... Your cooking skills are very good, can you teach me how to cook?

Cook these wheat?"

Kino was even more confused: "Yes, you can, but why do you want to learn this?"

Solandel put her hands behind her back and drew circles on the ground with her toes: "I feel that my common sense is very lacking and I don't know much about many things. For example, wheat, I eat whole wheat bread and drink wheat porridge every day, but

I have no idea what processes are involved in making wheat grains into food, or even further, I have no idea how wheat is grown.”

Solandel gently held the piece of rag tied around her wrist, her gaze getting deeper and deeper: "I don't want to be aloof all the time, I want to know more about these common sense of life, so that I can know what the life of the people at the bottom is like.

"

Kino looked at the cloth strip on Solandel's wrist and narrowed his eyes slightly. After a moment of silence, he took the lead and entered the kitchen: "Follow me."

In the next few hours, Kino introduced Solandel to the whole process of wheat cultivation, production, and cooking.

As Solandel herself said, she has very little knowledge in this area. She is the top honors student in Laurel College. She can talk about astronomy and geography at will, and she has profound historical knowledge at her fingertips. She can even blurt out

The nickname of a certain commander in a battle hundreds of years ago and its origin.

However, when it comes to wheat, the most common food in the kingdom, she behaves very ignorantly, not knowing how to cultivate it, not knowing its growth cycle, and not knowing how to cook it.

If you ask further, you will find that the teachers in school did not teach her this at all, and they will not teach her this.

In the eyes of teachers, the upper-class elites have things that the upper-class elites should learn, so how can they waste precious time on low-level knowledge?

During the whole process of Kino's explanation of knowledge, Solandel listened very carefully. In just a few hours, she wrote dozens of pages of notes, and her learning attitude was no less than that of being in a classroom.

After learning the lesson, Solandel put on an apron, turned the knowledge into practice, and tried to knead dough with wheat flour.

What makes people laugh or cry is that those little hands that can play top-notch piano music are very clumsy. The kneaded dough is either too hard with too little water, too soft with too much water, or the kneading method is wrong, resulting in a thin ball.

, there are still some flying powder on the face, making it look like a dirty little cat.

Kino couldn't help but smile and shook his head: "Before you go home, you'd better take a shower and change clothes at my place. If your mother knew that you worked as a coolie in my house and kneaded dough all night, she might come to ask questions."

"Well! This matter is kept secret~" Solandel worked hard to knead the dough, her hands were obviously very sore, but she still had a smile on her face, "When I think of many people like me, they are kneading dough to make tomorrow's bread.

, I always feel that there is a very subtle sense of intertwining time and space.”

"I hope everything goes well in Danyu City, and no one will go hungry~"

...

Just as Kino was watching Solandel kneading the dough, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a black shadow flying past outside the window.

There is no moonlight tonight, the night is very dark, and ordinary people can only see thick darkness when they look out.

However, Kino's vision has evolved, and he has already acquired the ability to see at night. When looking at the night scene, not only is it as bright as day, but he can still see the details close up and the outline in the distance clearly.

In the night sky not far from Qi Mansion, I saw a raven flying by with its wings spread. Because of its strong positioning ability and trainability, this bird is often used as a messenger bird for flying letters, and is used to quickly convey information from different places.

, the communication speed of Raven Flying Book is more than 5 times faster than the most elite cavalry's message transmission.

It's late at night now. Who sent Feishu overnight? And to whom?

Kino didn't need to care about these things, but at this point in time, he couldn't help but pay more attention and directly started to use the "Eye of Divine Sight" to peek at the secret message tied to the raven's foot.

The secret letter had no signature, no addressee, no official seal, nothing. It was obvious that the sender did not want to leave any traces.

There were only four words written on it: Po is dead.

Po is dead...

Kino couldn't help but narrowed his eyes. Regarding the news of Po's death, Perseus had already said at the meeting that he was negotiating the matter with the Far East and would not spread it to anyone else for the time being.

In other words, the only people who know about Abao's death now are those who attended the meeting at that time.

Who sent this flying letter?

To whom?

Why did you secretly send out the news that "Po is dead" at this time, regardless of the king's order?...

The meaning of this flying letter was unclear, and Kino didn't know if it was a good thing or a bad thing, so he didn't use telekinesis to intercept the raven.
