"Mr. Ronald, there is a small dinner party in the car tonight. You want to come and see..."
The train traveled two days later.
One evening, Raleye came to invite Ronald as usual.
However, as soon as he opened his mouth, the spy leader stopped at the door of the carriage.
In Raleye's sight.
Siesta is pestering Costart, and the cult warlock who got the new toy is obviously having fun. Costart, on the other hand, remains unmoved and maintains his usual calmness.
Only Ronald...
The man who had been chatting with Shi Tier in the morning was now sitting alone on the edge of the carriage, opening the window, and looking at the passing scenery outside.
Raleye stepped forward with a subtle expression, no longer mentioning his invitation to Ronald a few seconds ago:
"Where's...Miss Shitil?"
Ronald pointed out the window:
"She didn't really want to get off at the terminal, so I sent her off."
"..."
Raleye immediately simulated in his mind the location where the train would pass by during the day, and then deduced where Stir might have left.
…
The location where Shi Tier left was definitely carefully selected!
R'lye knew Entrod's map by heart.
The location I passed by today in the afternoon happened to be very close to the hunter's route for winter lake hunting on Lake Berkeley.
If Shi Tier mixes into this team.
It is very difficult to find people.
Even Entrod's spies wouldn't be able to take care of this situation - not to mention that Stir might not have escaped through this road.
Raleye is a very pragmatic person.
He came to the conclusion in his heart, and the expression on his face turned into a smile again.
Sitting directly opposite Ronald, Raleye asked straight to the point:
"Mr. Ronald, why do you want to help that girl?"
"I know you have no interest in her. This is not a decision you would make after weighing the pros and cons."
Ronald looked at Lalye who looked calm.
He thought seriously for a few seconds and then answered bluntly:
"I think that kid had a kind of belief in him, and he just wanted to help. It's that simple."
"..."
Raleye obviously did not expect that he would get such an answer.
He was stunned for more than ten seconds because of Ronald's answer, and then suddenly laughed out loud:
"Hahaha--"
"Mr. Ronald, I seem to understand Siesta's thoughts somewhat."
"People as interesting as you, who dare to speak up, are indeed rare and unique."
Then Raleye's expression changed:
"When the train arrives at the next station, I will immediately issue a wanted notice for Shi Tier, and the reward amount will be set at the same level as the leader of the resistance force."
Ronald's tone was very calm:
"Is it because of the conversation between her and me that you treat Shidil so specially?"
"That's right." Raleye replied immediately, "I must admit my negligence and your ability, Mr. Ronald."
"Even if that child is just an ordinary person, after communicating directly with you for such a long time, he must become an existence that Entrod values."
"..."
"That's right..."
Ronald nodded slightly, moved his eyes to the distance and stopped talking.
Winter at night.
The snowy scene outside the car window and the night scene were mixed together, and the darkness was almost unnoticeable as the time changed. The surrounding sky seemed to have suddenly darkened.
And in the place where the train goes away.
It seems like nothing has ever changed.
At this time, Raleye nodded and left, heading to other carriages alone to attend the banquet.
Ronald lowered his head slightly and placed his right hand gently on the wall of the train. He looked at Raleye leaving again, and couldn't help but think -
Now Poetry.
They may not be ordinary people anymore...
The journey after that was uneventful.
Until they arrived at Entrod's capital [Waterfall City], they didn't encounter any special events.
After arriving in this unique city.
Because of what happened on the road, Raleye had put aside the idea of wooing Ronald. He helped the master and servant arrange a place to live, and he left a message: "The issue of the original text still needs to be discussed, and I ask you to wait patiently."
', and then left directly with Siesta.
As a result, Ronald was left with a rather relaxed environment.
As Entrod's spy chief, Raleye naturally manages the supervision of all parties. He understands the strength of Ronald and Costat, so he only arranges the most basic tracking, and does not have any other
constraint.
——This is also a helpless move.
——After all, if Ronald’s master and servant really want to go on a killing spree in the city.
——He himself can't guarantee that he will escape unscathed.
And live in this city.
Ronald also gained some experience.
——Fall City.
This rather straightforward name comes from the city’s absolute landmark, the Bonn Falls.
The location of the city is very special.
On a twelve-kilometer-long terrain, large and small, intermittent waterfalls are irregularly distributed in a special cliff terrain, and then converge into a huge lake below.
The location of Waterfall City is integrated with this special terrain.
It was winter when Ronald and Costat arrived here, but the large waterfalls with high heights prevented the water here from freezing due to the low temperature, so people attached great importance to this residential area.
I don’t know if Raleye did it on purpose or if it was just a coincidence.
The hotel where Ronald lived was the closest to the main waterfall. Sitting on the balcony of the suite that night, he could directly see the magnificent scene of the waterfall rushing down.
Ronald poured himself a cup of local specialty drink and then greeted the maid:
"Costat, how do you feel?"
Costart looked serious:
"Considering the issue of natural disasters, such a city is obviously very dangerous."
"If there were no magicians to maintain it upstream, people would never have been able to live until now."
Speaking of this, Kostat changed the subject:
"But sir, I suggest you go to bed early."
"Even if there are strengthening techniques to enhance your physique, it is still worth practicing a healthy and excellent routine."
"Okay, okay." Ronald didn't object much and obediently accepted Costart's suggestion.
"..."
Ronald got up the next day.
He walked alone to the first floor of the hotel, preparing to order a special local breakfast.
The person in charge of entertaining the guests at this time was the same person who helped Ronald check in yesterday.
Saw Ronald coming down.
He immediately greeted warmly:
"Sir, this must be your first time coming to Waterfall City, right? How was your stay?"
Ronald smiled and greeted the waiter:
"feel good."
"But if you're a light sleeper, you probably won't be able to sleep at night?"
The receptionist also smiled back:
"Those who sleep relatively lightly live in the palace upstream of the waterfall. It won't be noisy there! - No, it seems that it should be called the Consulate now?"
