"Captain Francis, the master has been waiting in the study for a long time."
The old butler, who was well-dressed and calm in manner, welcomed Francis into the manor. Francis, who had always been confident, was a little nervous when he entered this private manor.
"Butler, please lead the way."
The two passed by a large garden, and the fresh scent of flowers and plants relieved Francis's nervousness to a certain extent.
He tightened the document in his hand and sorted out his words later.
The old housekeeper kept an expression on his face and sent him into the master's study.
This was the most magnificent study room that Francis had ever seen. He didn't know if he used the word "magnificent" correctly, but the chair made of an unknown precious tree sitting under his butt made him very uneasy.
The crystal lamps around him gave off soft light, and there were many tomes on the bookshelf that he had never heard of.
Sitting in front of him was a middle-aged man with slightly white temples and neat short hair.
The man's face was majestic, and his narrow eyes and gray eyes made him look a bit sinister, but his burly body dispelled this feeling of vulture very well.
"Francis, tell me about the situation."
"Yes, my lord!"
Francis swallowed secretly, straightened his chest, and quickly handed the document to the middle-aged man's desk.
"This is the information I compiled this month about...Gracie Shelley!"
"oh?"
When the man heard this, he looked at him in surprise and muttered: "It's rare."
Then he lowered his head and read the summary report made by Francis.
"This little guy must have encountered a lot of trouble when he came from the countryside to the capital, right?" the man asked casually while watching.
"Uh...yes." Francis replied: "Many people feel that he is not worthy of his moral integrity and that they are bullying him secretly."
"You have to pay attention to control. I let him join your team just to ask you to take good care of him." The man said coldly.
"This..." Francis grinned after hearing this, and smiled for the first time: "Sir, the little guy you recommended to me doesn't need my help."
The man raised his head with an unclear expression on his face: "Oh?"
"He is a genius. His swordsmanship is amazing. He seems to have practiced very hard because he was excluded." Francis said with emotion: "You may not believe it. More than a month ago, he clearly couldn't even hold a sword, but
Half a month ago, he defeated a real palace guard during a palace guard training day!"
The man's narrow eyes narrowed slightly when he heard this: "Interesting..."
"Well, after all, we are from the Shelley family, so it's not strange to have such a talent." The man continued.
Francis felt that he really couldn't figure out the thoughts of big people... He actually felt that this big man was "ridiculing"? "sneering"?
After reading the report submitted by Francis, the man leaned on the chair behind him and narrowed his eyes slightly: "Apart from the things in the report, are there any other interesting things? About Gracie, as you just said, it's good
.”
"Well……"
Francis thought for a moment, and then said with some hesitation: "Interestingly speaking, I heard that his... um... childhood sweetheart came from Gracie's hometown? She is currently living in Gracie's home temporarily, and sometimes visits him in the palace.
.”
"So, he's not alone yet."
The man seemed to have realized something and laughed.
"What you say is absolutely true!"
…
…
Half a month has passed since Chai Anping sent Hicks to the medical class in the first battle. Flower and the others have never messed with him since then. Even after Hicks was discharged from the hospital, they had no time to take revenge.
he.
This follow-up has to start with a certain nurse sister who did not want to be named when she changed the bald man into a hospital gown and discovered a terrible secret...
As the instigator, Chai Anping felt an indescribable layer of guilt and... gloating about his misfortune.
【Theft Omen】It smells so good!
In less than half a month, with the training, he gained a deeper understanding of Giles's one-fifth sword skills. His sword skills improved steadily, and his physical fitness became stronger and stronger under the supervision of Coach Warren.
I estimate that after practicing for a few more months, I can go to Boydoor.
It is worth mentioning that my childhood sweetheart who lives together has been able to bring a bag of coins home every day since a few days ago, earning more than Chai Anping.
However, the two of them had a tacit understanding and did not mention the matter of "separation".
Every time he lay on the bed in the guest room, Chai Anping would think of the words that deceived him: "We are all dogs struggling in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou. Let's den together if we can."
The two now have a tacit understanding of the division of labor. Chai Anping is responsible for cooking when he is not at work, while Ellerbella is responsible for cleaning the room.
The young couple lived a prosperous life, often causing sighs from Mrs. Liz downstairs, and ambiguous teasing from Renata at the bakery.
Chai Anping is extremely satisfied with his current life in another world. He has a house, a girl, a stable job, not to mention how nourishing he is.
"Ai Lebella, do you really not have to go out to work today?"
He has now begun to call his childhood sweetheart by his name calmly.
"Well... I've made enough money these days, I just want to spend the day!" Ailebella collapsed on the bed and spoke out the new vocabulary she learned from Chai Anping.
"Okay, I'm going to the training center now. There's a good chance I won't be back for dinner in the evening. You can go eat on the street by yourself!"
"Oh~"
As soon as Ellerbella's lazy voice came out, Chai Anping had already closed the door and went downstairs.
"Hey Simmons, Gracie is out."
As soon as Chai Anping went out, the two demon hunters sitting opposite his apartment became very energetic.
"Calm down, Harris." Simmons said speechlessly: "I have been following this kid for more than ten days, but he has not gone anywhere except the palace, his home, and the training gym. My intuition tells me that he is going to the training gym now."
"That……"
"Yes, you should follow him today." Simmons looked into his partner's eyes and ruthlessly rejected Harris's pleading eyes.
Harris moved his lips, finally grabbed the hat on the table, stood up and followed.
Simmons watched his companion disappear at the corner of the street and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
To be honest, the fact that half a month of follow-up investigation had yielded no results made him, an old hunter, a little discouraged.
Because there were still many tasks waiting to be solved by the Demon Seeker Legion, he almost wanted to give up on this clue.
During this half-month period, he and Harris not only secretly visited all the stores and households near Lisekadi Street, but also conducted long-term tracking of Chai Anping and his childhood sweetheart.
result……
The mage didn't catch it, but discovered a dirty little secret of Ellerbella.
But this is not up to Simmons. He only plans to tell that naive and silly Gracie what he discovered when he has time.
