"This personnel change is expected to be quite extensive. Leonardo, how many people will remain in Chaldea?"
Lawrence put the tools in his hands aside for the time being, and looked up at Leonardo da Vinci, who was also about to take a rest.
"Not too many...except for those who are really irreplaceable, the rest will probably be replaced."
After Leonardo da Vinci thought for a while, he took a sip of coffee from his water glass and smiled at Lawrence.
"You can rest assured in this regard. Ritsuka and Mash are undoubtedly [irreplaceable] to Chaldea now. Even the Magic Association has to admit this fact."
Lawrence sat in his seat, feeling quite restless.
"I'll go out and take a look."
"I don't mind if you want to meet everyone, but Lawrence, remember to go to the control room later. It's almost time for me to change clothes and go there..."
Da Vinci waved his hand carelessly.
Lawrence did not respond, but left Da Vinci's magic workshop in the same elegant manner as before, but... his steps were a little hurried.
...
Mashu went to find Fu Fu, and Fujimaru Ritsuka went back to his room to take a look, and then started walking aimlessly in the passage of Chaldea alone.
"Ritsuka, are you nervous?"
In the passage, the male technician and female staff who were chatting earlier greeted her.
Fujimaru Ritsuka is the biggest contributor to the designation of the title. This is an unimpeachable consensus within Chaldea, and it is indeed the case.
"I just heard your chat, what kind of person do you think the new director will be?"
Fujimaru Ritsuka is very familiar with every employee of Chaldea.
"I don't know much about magicians, but I heard that he's a member of a certain family. He's not a playboy, right?"
The male mechanic sighed.
The male mechanic's name is Daston, and he is actually just a simple mechanic, not someone related to magic. In fact, many of Chaldea's employees are the same as Daston, with some levels.
Enough, but the scientists who are living in poverty in the real world will be lured to Chaldea by the old director Marisbili Animsfia.
"Magicians with a family lineage that can be easily investigated are generally not simple people. You should be more careful when dealing with them."
"I have decided to go to the Clock Tower. You have to take care of yourselves, especially Ritsuka. If the Clock Tower makes any new moves against Chaldea, I will take the initiative to contact you.
"
The female employee patted the male technician on the shoulder, and then winked at Fujimaru Ritsuka.
Her name is Sylvia, she is an operator in the control room, and she is a magician. During Chaldea's "Great Purge", she has been determined to be removed by the Clock Tower. Although she can't help herself, she is very happy with this result.
Quite satisfied.
"I don't need to worry. I'm just an ordinary person. Ritsuka, you will probably be one of the first people to be interrogated by the Inquisition Committee."
Daston looked at Ritsuka with some worry.
"Don't worry, with Da Vinci and Miss Lawrence here, there will be no problem."
Fujimaru Ritsuka had completely relaxed his mind and answered with a smile.
She has experienced far more dangers between life and death than once. It was just a review meeting of the Magic Association, and she would not take it to heart.
What's more, the main targets of the review meeting will definitely be Da Vinci and Lawrence on the surface, and she can be regarded as a secondary target at best.
"If something is done to you, you must learn to be patient, Ritsuka."
Sylvia, who was about to leave, pursed her lips, grabbed Fujimaru Ritsuka's shoulders, and said seriously.
"Everyone in Chaldea will never forget you, Matthew, Miss Da Vinci, and Miss Lawrence. If you are imprisoned, you must find a way to endure it until you escape, and then disperse."
Everyone will definitely speak up for you."
"You are never alone. In addition to the servants who are bound to you, there are also all of us in Chaldea."
After bidding farewell to Duston and Sylvia, Fujimaru Ritsuka thought for a while and decided to go to Leonardo da Vinci's magic workshop first.
There should be no one in the control room now, and Miss Lawrence and Da Vinci should be at the Magic Workshop.
Boom, boom, boom.
"The door is unlocked, just come in. I've just tidied up my place."
After knocking on the door, Leonardo da Vinci's voice came through the door.
Click——
"Isn't Miss Lawrence here?"
Looking around, Fujimaru Ritsuka found that among the people he wanted to see, only one person appeared here.
"That sentimental guy just left me. What, I thought you were here to find me, Ritsuka."
Da Vinci curled his lips deliberately.
"Of course I came here to kiss Da Vinci."
Fujimaru Ritsuka walked in anyway.
"Hmm, then I'll just trust you once. Is it really okay for you not to accompany Matthew? There are only a few days left this year, and I thought you were going to leave more memories for the two of you."
Da Vinci sat back on his stool and stretched.
After completing the daily maintenance of that thing, nothing else happened.
"Of course I also want to kiss Leonardo da Vinci and say hello to Miss Lawrence."
Fujimaru Ritsuka chuckled and relaxedly sat down where Lawrence was sitting just now.
"Okay, okay, I still have some reports to write. You must have some questions when you come here. Can I answer them while writing the report?"
There were a few dark circles on Da Vinci's face - after taking over the role of Acting Director of Chaldea entrusted by Romani, she had to take care of much more work than before, even if the servant had more energy.
, and I still got dark circles under my eyes.
"Um......"
After Fujimaru Ritsuka was silent for a while, he nodded slowly.
"You kid... you pretend to be calm, but you are actually more scared than anyone else."
Da Vinci pulled over two pieces of paper with half written text and sighed softly.
"What kind of person is the new director? The upcoming review meeting against Chaldea. Where should Chaldea go in the future... You have already regarded this place as your home."
Fujimaru Ritsuka didn't say anything, just lowered his head and looked at his fingers that he kept fiddling with.
"I can understand you. After all, a [new] Chaldea, that is, [New Chaldea], is so scary for those of us who have personally participated in the previous events.
