The magic caravan travels through the long street, which is covered with a thin layer of snow. Several black ruts and countless messy horse hoof prints are like graffiti on a piece of white paper. The ridges of the houses and the courtyard wall in the distance are
A layer of snow also fell. Pedestrians on both sides of the road wrapped their clothes tightly in the cold wind and walked quickly towards their homes with their heads lowered.
A light layer of water vapor condensed on the windows of some shops on the street, and warm and soft light shone from the houses.
Karl stretched out his hand and knocked on the car window. The coachman in front of the magic caravan softly shouted to Gubo to stop the horse. Then the magic caravan began to slow down and stopped on the side of the road.
The coachman jumped down from the driver's seat, stood at the door of the carriage and respectfully asked Karl: "Master Karl, what are your orders?"
Karl opened the window, and the crisp air outside floated in with snowflakes. Karl ordered the coachman: "Let's turn around and go to the Garden Plaza Hotel."
The coachman was very familiar with various places in the city of Helensa and said respectfully: "Okay, Master Karl."
After saying that, he sat back on the driver's seat, faced the falling snowflakes, turned around at the street intersection, and drove the carriage towards the garden square in the center of the city.
Samoa sat next to Karl, a strange color flashed in her amber eyes. She reached out to hold Karl's arm, rested her head on Karl's shoulder, and took the opportunity to look up and down at Su with a pair of clear big eyes.
Erdake's thin lips were slightly raised, raising a seductive arc.
Surdak took advantage of his drunkenness, supported his forehead with his hands, leaned on the soft sofa, and said to Karl: "This snow will probably last all night, and I plan to leave Helensa City tomorrow morning.
.”
Karl looked surprised. He knew that Surdak must be lying. It was impossible for him to leave Helensa City casually at this time, unless he gave up his further studies at the Knight Academy, but this was almost impossible. Karl wanted to
Ask him: Are you drunk and talking nonsense?
Obviously Surdak didn't, because he only drank a little bit of ale, and he just took the opportunity to pretend to be drunk. Although Karl couldn't figure out why, he still tried his best to cooperate: "Why are you in a hurry to leave Helensa City?
, haven’t the things here been settled yet?”
Surdak twisted his body to make himself more comfortable on the sofa, and then said vaguely: "After the first snowfall, it means winter is coming. I'm worried about the mountain road in a few days."
It will be difficult to pass. Since you have decided to leave, you should leave here as soon as possible before the snow starts falling."
Karl asked again: "If you leave this time, when can you come back?"
Surdak reluctantly opened his eyes and replied: "Next spring, at least that's my plan for now. If there is someone who needs me, remember to send someone to deliver a letter to me."
After a while, Karl said: "Okay, then be careful on the road."
The hotel is located to the south of the garden square, just opposite the pub. The distance between the two places is actually not too far. The magic caravan just turned around in the street and arrived at this very warmly decorated hotel. The door of the hotel
The glass door was wiped clean and transparent, and the snow on the steps at the door was swept very clean. Needless to say, this must have been swept by the hotel owner himself, as he is always so diligent.
The lights were lit inside the hotel, and the carriage slowly stopped at the door of the hotel. Karl kissed Summer apologetically on her fair face, and whispered to her: "My dear, Suldak seems drunk.
I don't feel comfortable letting him walk back to the hotel by himself. I have to send him back to his room. Do you want to go to the hotel with me, or just wait for me in the carriage?"
Samoa blinked her big eyes and replied: "I'll wait for you in the car."
"I will be right back……"
After speaking, Karl stretched out his hand to push open the car door, waved to the entourage outside the car, and asked him to help Surdak, who was staggering a little.
Erdak helped him into this hotel.
The proprietress at the front desk of the hotel lobby knew Karl and Suldak. When she saw Karl carrying Suldak almost into a pile of mud, she quickly stepped forward to help and shouted to the hotel owner who was clearing the snow in the yard behind.
, asked him to rush over to help, and kept complaining loudly, saying that he had never seen Knight Suldak drink so much and be so drunk...
Karl calmly asked the hotel proprietress for a room on the third floor, and helped Suldak into the room and let him lie on the bed. The hotel owner was also busy preparing hot soup to sober up.
When only Karl was left in the room, Surdak suddenly opened his eyes. Seeing that he was still a little drunk, he said to Karl: "You can find any reason to get rid of Miss Samoa, and I will do it again."
Tell me why..."
"Okay." Karl didn't ask any more questions, turned around and left with his entourage.
Suldak only waited in the hotel room for about two-quarters of an hour before he saw Karl returning to the hotel with his entourage. He walked quickly into the hotel despite the snowflakes and told his entourage to wait at the door. At this time, Suldak
There was even lemon tea prepared in the room.
Karl sat on the armchair opposite the bed and asked Suldak: "What is going on?"
Suldak sat on the bedside and said to Karl: "Remember when you took me to the Opera House last week? Then you and Mrs. Christie left first, and I was going to go back to the Knights Academy through the alley behind the Opera House. In fact
Yes, I have always wanted to talk to you about this. At that time, the alley behind the Opera House was actually separated by an iron fence..."
He told Karl in detail what he saw that night.
Karl asked solemnly: "So, you saw Samoa boarding Baron Grenfell's magic caravan?"
"That's it." Suldak nodded and said.
Karl stretched out his hands, rubbed his cheeks vigorously, and said with a depressed look: "Maybe Samoa is not what you thought..."
Even though Suldak said so much, he was still a little reluctant to believe that Samoa had any connection with Baron Grenfell. This was tantamount to denying his personal charm and saying that this opera dancer was purely for someone.
They approached him for some ulterior motives.
Suldak held a cup of lemon tea and said to Karl: "We don't have to sit here and guess what kind of person Miss Samoa is. Maybe we will have the answer tonight."
"You mean...they will take action tonight?" Karl thought for a moment before asking.
Surdak nodded and said: "I guess they already know my existence, and they don't want to let me leave Helensa City like this. They are even worried that they can't catch me outside the city. If they want to do something to me,
If we take action, tonight will definitely be the best time."
Then he added: "Of course these are just speculations and may not happen at all, but no matter what, I have to make some preparations."
Karl took a deep breath and said to Suldak: "I will also make some preparations. It is best to catch all the rats hiding in the city's sewers this time."
