Alien landlady

Chapter 21
Bai Tongtong is well-known at Menise School of Magic and Martial Arts.

All the instructors at the Military Academy knew that there was a female mercenary at the Academy of Magic who was capable of gang fights and single-handed fights, and beat down their annual champion of last year's martial arts competition with bare hands.

No one has seen her use a weapon, it seems to be a fist, heavy and hard, not at all as strong as a woman should be, and the moves are weird, after a few moves, people can be pinned to the ground and unable to move.

However, after learning that the female mercenary named Bai Tongtong was the personal bodyguard of a noble lady, no one had any doubts. The bodyguard did not go to the battlefield to kill the enemy, and it was enough to control the enemy.

With this ability, it is not surprising that he can knock down the outstanding graduates of the past.

Bai Tongtong became famous for no reason, but she enjoys it very much, which means that Ai Ni is safer at school, which is safer than others in the face of Carjado and Ted, after all, she is Ai Ni's rightful close friend The guard, everyone knows that to bully Ai Ni is to put his face on Bai Tongtong's fist.

It's not the lunatic next door, there's no one here at the Magic Academy whose skin and flesh can withstand a heavy blow from a warrior.

Ted has three elder brothers who are studying next door, so he often seeks information from his younger brother about Bai Tongtong, easily got in touch with Aini and Carjado, and tasted Bai Tongtong's cooking skills many times. Kalljado was frightened, he thought he had eaten enough, but in front of the three Aronson brothers, it turned out to be nothing worth mentioning.

The three of them can eat a whole chicken, and they especially like white-cut chicken. After each person holds a plate, they only see a pile of clean bones. After eating the chicken, they still have to eat the whole piece of bread and other side dishes. Food, never think there are too many meat dishes, and finally use soup to fill all the gaps in the stomach.

The three of them ate so much that Ted and Caljado were exhausted trying to get enough ice water.

There are more meals to cook, more ingredients to buy, and more fresh meat left for the little wild cat in the middle of the night. The plate of meat piled up every day will definitely be gone in the morning, but the little wild cat just doesn’t show up. I still don’t know what it looks like. Instead, Bai Tongtong got used to it.

By the end of October, Bai Tongtong began to prepare gifts for Seiya's wedding. The wedding will be held on November 10th, but November 11th happens to be the 7th anniversary of the founding of Menise Magic and Martial Arts Academy. It will be very grand The celebration ceremony, followed by a full week off.

Ai Ni also wanted to go home to see her parents and family. Instead of letting Bai Tongtong go back in advance, she promised to give her a surprise and take her to try a new experience, which made Bai Tongtong agree to accompany her to attend the school celebration together, and the next day together Return to Fort Chemington.

But He Yi had to go to the city to choose the presents by herself, and Bai Tongtong had to leave Ai Ni to move freely, and at this time she could ask for leave without worrying about going out, not afraid that Ai Ni would be bullied by others at school alone, no one would dare, the first graders just started studying Meditation, trying to use magic to play pranks, you have to wait until the second grade at the earliest.

Of course, the children of the aristocratic family are not included in this list.

But who would have a big hatred against Ai Ni, the little daughter of the viscount's family.

However, Ai Ni is also proud of herself. She is introverted, quiet and shy, and she is not an idiot. Anyone who can enter here to study is not an idiot. She makes full use of the influence brought by Bai Tongtong, a reliable guard, and goes to the salon to chat with people in her free time. , establish their own social circle, and follow Bai Tongtong's advice, make friends with commoner students in the same class, treat them to snacks, study homework and practice meditation together.

Carljado teased Ai Ni a lot because of this, Bai Tongtong only earned a little money as a guard, but did more than just guarding her job, no matter how you look at it, she lost a lot.

This kind of words, even if it's just a joke, saying it once is enough for Ai Ni to remember, and she will pay Bai Tongtong more when she returns home.

On the afternoon of November 11rd, Bai Tongtong was packing her luggage in the attic bedroom while she was free, thinking about what clothes to bring back to Fort Chamington, when she suddenly heard Annie calling her name anxiously downstairs, there was her urgent mail, Fort Chamington here.

Bai Tongtong immediately ran downstairs, and saw the letter and messenger in the living room, it turned out to be Laurie.

"Laurie? What's going on? What happened to Seiya?"

Lauley still looks simple and honest. Although he is wearing clean and tidy new clothes, he looks haggard and tired. He has only seen him for two months. He seems to have aged a lot, and his hand holding the letter is trembling slightly.

"Miss Bai, you should read the letter first. It's not my lady's accident, but the situation is more serious."

Bai Tongtong took the letter and asked Laurie to sit down first. She tore open the envelope and sat down in the armchair opposite him.

The letter was written by Seiya himself, and there were even dried tears on the paper. It can be imagined that Seiya wrote this letter while crying. She told Bai Tongtong about a serious incident.

Fern betrayed his young lady. She took advantage of the time when Seiya and her fiancé were busy preparing for the wedding, and stole the confidential business information kept by Mr. Galti. Mr. Si's business is also related to Mrs. Hope's business. If the chain continues, it will affect the income of many people.

Betrayal is an unacceptable behavior in Fort Chamington. Fern has been imprisoned, but only admits that he stole the secrets, but refuses to reveal who the information was handed over to, and does not admit that he was instructed by others.

Seiya said in the letter that because Finn was her personal maid, she was looking for an opportunity to make a mold for the key to the study safe that her fiancé hung on her body every day to match a new one. He went to the study and stole the file bag containing all the confidential documents. After being discovered yesterday, he reported to the police. The sheriff brought people to investigate the inconsistencies in Shifen's testimony.

When the letter was written here, a large piece of paper was wet, and it became brittle after drying. Not only was the handwriting blurred, but it was also shaking badly. It can be seen that Seiya was very emotional at the time, because the content behind it was that she was worried that the wedding might be cancelled. When writing this letter, the elders of both parties had just finished their third quarrel. This is not counting mutual accusations between relatives. She urgently needs a reliable friend by her side to support her. She asked Bai Tongtong to come back immediately after reading the letter. collapsed.

After reading the letter, Bai Tongtong held the letter paper and took a deep breath to calm down the unexpected news. At most, she had guessed that Fen's character might cause the newlyweds to lose their relationship, but she never expected to make such a huge mess before the wedding. .

What an idiot!
Thinking of Fen's face, Bai Tongtong couldn't help taking two deep breaths. Lauley watched nervously, wondering if Bai Tongtong would jump in anger.

"Laurie!"

"Yes, Miss Bai." Laurie sat up straight quickly.

Bai Tongtong raised her head, still holding the letter in her hand, "Laurie, Fern is your wife, you have to be mentally prepared, she may spend a long time in prison. Betrayal is an intolerable behavior in Fort Zammington, even if Mr. Galty And Mr. Faseas will not pursue it, and it is impossible for Fern to live in Fort Zammington anymore. People will not accept that a traitor continues to appear in front of their eyes, and you have to plan for your future."

Lauley bowed his head slightly and was silent for a while, "Yes, Miss Bai, I know all this, everyone has told me about it."

Bai Tongtong didn't ask any further, her reminder ended here, and what Laurie did was his business.

"Wait for me, I'll take a leave of absence."

Bai Tongtong left the living room and went to the second floor to find Ai Ni. After a while, she came down from the attic with her packed and packed luggage, called Lawley and went out.

Walk to the commercial street, take a rental carriage into the city, go straight to the Wizards Guild in the center of the city, spend a few gold coins to use the teleportation array there to return to the Wizards Guild of Fort Chamington, and endure the physical discomfort caused by the first teleportation, Bai Tongtong pulled Lao Li out of the gate of the guild, jumped into the rental carriage waiting for business on the street, and headed to No. 323 Knight Garden Street, Leacock.

This trick is what Laurie can quickly come to the School of Magic and Martial Arts and what Ai Ni promised to bring Bai Tongtong to experience. Gold coins will be collected according to the transmission distance. The cost of traveling in a carriage is much more expensive than the carriage at the same distance. If there are no special things, For the common people, horse-drawn carriages are still the most important and common means of transportation.

It was not dark until Bai Tongtong got out of the car and stepped into the gate of No. 323 house after receiving the letter from Lawley.

This is the convenience brought by the teleportation array.

In the lovely house with red spires, there is a deserted scene. This is the base of the bride and her natal relatives and friends. It can be seen that some necessary decorations and arrangements have been made for the wedding to entertain the guests of the woman, but at this time it is deserted. There was no laughter at all, and those who didn't know thought that this family was holding a funeral.

The housekeeper, Mr. Swift, and the others were all there. When they saw Bai Tongtong rushing back, they excitedly stepped forward to hug her.

Bai Tongtong comforted them in a low voice, first asked about Seiya's situation, and learned that he hadn't rested since the incident happened, and went back to his room to sleep for a while after Laurie sent the letter, and he is still asleep now.

Bai Tongtong was not in a hurry to see Seiya, and sat in the kitchen with everyone to talk and listen to the current situation.

The letter written by Seiya in agitation had no details, and Lawley couldn't explain clearly because of his clumsy tongue. Mr. Swift sorted out the things in a chronological order in a more orderly way. Only then did Bai Tongtong know what was going on in the whole process.

Although Fern has accepted the habit of bathing on the surface, deep down she still feels pain because of the conflict with her childhood beliefs. I don’t know when I met people from Steve’s fellow countrymen outside. Thinking that the purpose of those people is not to help Mrs. Steele adapt to her new life in Fort Chamington, but to find useful people to obtain confidential information. In fact, the other party already knew Fern's identity and approached her on purpose, because Yesterday, after Fen was imprisoned, he investigated the Stevens Association overnight, and found that it really existed, but there was no one named by Fen, nor anyone with the same name or similar appearance.

The whole thing is that someone dug a big hole to lure Fern to jump down. After getting what they want, Fern's life and death have nothing to do with them.

Disposable items.

After Bai Tongtong listened to the story, such a sentence popped into his mind.

As an important military fortress and front-line position during the war, Fort Chamington is known as the "Spies Capital". Although there is no exact number, the number of spies is indeed much higher than that of ordinary cities. These spies are very active in any era. Military intelligence is stolen in wartime, and commercial intelligence is stolen in peacetime.

The deep-rooted spy agency that has been in operation for many years is deeply hidden, and those who show up and carry out activities outside are all unimportant youngsters. Not to mention Fern's IQ, even a really smart person may not be able to see through the professional spies in time.

Mr. Galty's boss is Mr. Faseas, whose business is related to Mrs. Hope's business. So many confidential documents have been lost, and the loss is difficult to estimate.

This Fen, her pious pursuit of faith surpasses her loyalty to her master. I really don't know whether to call her a good person or a bad person.
