Chapter 17

The sky was completely dark, dotted with stars, and shimmering in the waning moon.

Mayfair stood by the window of the study room, looking at the night.

The blue eyes under the golden hair are calm, and the petite body is leaning on the window railing.

At this moment, footsteps came from outside the study room, and there was a knock on the door.

"Come in."

Enri came in, and Enri came to Feier's side.

"Miss Raya, the town gates on both sides are closed."

Feier couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth slightly, and her mood suddenly became beautiful.

She stretched and let out a lovely moan.

Enri couldn't turn around and couldn't help but blame: "The knight just sent a letter, why hasn't he come back yet, and made Miss Raya wait for so long! I will go to him tomorrow and say, so Don’t take Miss Raya’s orders seriously.”

"It's not necessary." Fei'er returned to the desk and looked at Xu Siling's letter and the soup recipe spread out. She picked up the turtle shell with her small fingers and looked at it: "You don't have to look for him tomorrow. On the contrary, if someone looks for you , when you ask about him, just say you don’t know, you just followed my order to send the knight out of the town, and you don’t know anything else. If you have any questions, let John come to me."

"Yes!" Enri obeyed subconsciously, but her mind still didn't turn around.

She often felt that she was too stupid and blamed herself for not being able to help Feier. She kept thinking that if she were smarter, maybe Feier's current situation would not be so difficult.

Mayfair couldn't help but feel happy, as satisfied as if she had gotten a toy.

"Tomorrow, take a soup recipe and cook it according to the procedure in the letter. I want to try it."

Enri was surprised: "How can this work?"

"Just do it." Feier hummed a few times, as if humming a tune, and whispered to himself: "Trust is a form of reciprocity. If he is really mine, he will naturally not harm me."

Mayfair threw the letter to Enri and walked out of the bookstore.

"I'm taking a rest. You should also take a rest early, Enri. I have other things for you to do tomorrow."

"Ah?" Enri was confused, "The knight hasn't come back yet. Maybe he was delayed by other things. Even if the city gate is closed, he, as a knight, can still shout to open it. What will happen when he comes back later."

"If you want to wait for him to come back, just wait."

Fei'er smiled and shook her head, not bothering to persuade Enri, who couldn't change her mind.

It's just sending a letter, especially since there is only one sentence in the letter, it doesn't take much time to go back and forth.

Now the city gates are completely closed, and no one has come back yet.

That can only mean one thing, he will never come back.

She had seen Xu Siling's sword skills the night before, so she should have no problem attacking and killing an unsuspecting knight.

For Finney, of course he wanted to finish delivering the letter as soon as possible and then come back and take the other letter from Mayfair's hand, and give the two letters to Johns together.

But Finney hasn't come back yet, which can only mean that her executioner made the most correct decision.

Her letter was just one sentence without beginning or end. Even if Xu Siling didn't kill Finney, John would still be confused when the two letters were in his hands.

Therefore, she was not afraid that Xu Siling would cause other troubles because she did not take action, but on the contrary, if Xu Siling handed over an answer that satisfied her, she would have to keep Xu Siling from getting into trouble.

Mayfair left the bookstore, leaving Enri alone scratching her head.

"Master Knight!"

Finny had not gone far when he was suddenly stopped by Xu Siling.

Unhappily, he turned around and saw Xu Siling smiling apologetically at the wooden gate. "What are you doing! If you fart, hurry up. I can't stay here for a second."

"I have some gifts here. I hope you can bring them to Miss Raya."

"Ah? Are you kidding me? You treat me as an errand boy?"

"Of course not."

Xu Siling signaled Finney to come back, then took out all the coins he had and stuffed them all into Finney's hand.

"You..." Finny was stunned for a moment by the sense of fulfillment when he saw the coins.

"After all, how can a lowly person like me have the opportunity to contact the noble Miss Raya? Now I finally have the opportunity to have some contact. Of course I hope." Xu Siling did not continue to say more, but he understood everything.

Finny immediately showed a look of understanding, chuckled and hummed: "People like you have many evil thoughts."

"I'm sorry to bother you, Lord Knight."

"No trouble." Fenni rubbed the coins in his hand and quickly stuffed them into his arms, indicating that he would help Xu Siling.

Xu Siling raised her eyebrows: "Why don't you, Lord Knight, go into the room first? I'll give you a gift."

"No, I don't want to go into this filthy place like yours. Come quickly and get your things. I have to rush back. The city gate will be closed later."

Seeing that he couldn't be coaxed in, Xu Siling was not annoyed and hurriedly entered the house with a smile.

As soon as she entered the room, Farina shivered in the corner, and Xu Siling put her index finger between her lips to signal her to be quiet.

Xu Siling came to the bedside and opened the box under the bed that was specially used to store items. Inside were all the more valuable items that had been ripped from the corpses, and they had not yet had a chance to be sold to the miller.

He randomly took out a few eye-catching accessories, then went to the weapon rack and took down the mace he had just bought.

He tried to pin it on the back of his waist, but it was too heavy and he would definitely not be able to hide it when he went out.

It was normal in the wilds of the Middle Ages to have a one-handed sword at the waist for self-protection.

But if Finny discovers a mace on his waist.
Xu Siling couldn't help but be speechless.

Finny was nearly fully armed, so it was difficult to kill him with one blow using a one-handed sword.

In fact, there were two main reasons why he decided to kill Finny.

One is because of Fei'er. Fei'er is her friend after all. She must want to take the management of Raya Town back into her own hands normally when she becomes an adult, and does not want outsiders to get involved.

No matter what Feier's reason for killing Finny was, at least Feier was asking for help from herself. If she didn't help him, she wouldn't be able to be friends in the future.

But leaving aside this aspect, what really gave Xu Siling confidence was the personal information that Feier showed the night before.
He also just recalled this matter. When he looked at Mayfair's personal information before, he was stunned by Mayfair's "atheist" for a long time, which made him ignore one of the skills that Mayfair possesses - [City Mansion].

What does it mean to have senior-level city skills at a young age?
She is not a normal little girl, she is ambitious and scheming.

Since she chose to kill Finny, it also shows that she has a way to deal with the negative impact caused by Finny's death.

On his own information window, the number of friends is still 1.

It shows that Feier still regards him as a friend and has no intention of betraying him.

Because Mayfair wanted to believe in herself, she asked him to help deal with Finny.

He should respond to Mayfair's trust.

Not to mention
Finney is a convicted man!
The skill and experience bar for walking, especially as a knight.

How much skill bonus do I have to get once his head falls off?
