Carrie Decker didn't expect that Suldak had already arranged the following things, and thought that such difficult days would not last long, so he said excitedly: "Great, when will Edgar come over?"
"I'll probably arrive the day after tomorrow." Suldak thought about it.
Carrie Decker crossed the desk excitedly, hugged Samira tightly, and said excitedly, "I knew you wouldn't abandon me..."
Samira pushed away Carrie Decker, who was more than half a head taller than her, walked to Carrie Decker's chair and sat down. While looking at the office, she asked, "Hello... How have you been in the guard camp for the past two days? Have you felt the charm of power?"
"Forget it, there are endless chores to deal with every day." Carrie Decker moved a chair and asked Suldak to sit down.
She wanted to call Ellie to prepare two cups of black tea, only then did she realize that Ellie had already left.
Suldak sat down and asked Carrie Decker, "How is it... Are you a bit unaccustomed to working here? Have you encountered any problems recently?"
"There are only a lot of trifles, and I haven't encountered any problems!" Carrie Decker replied, looked at the darkening sky outside, and then said: "Have you had dinner? Boss, I have been working so hard recently, why don't you invite me?" I'll have dinner!"
After thinking about it, Suldak agreed, "Yes, I know there is a good barbecue restaurant."
Carrie Decker walked to the closet in the room, and quickly took off the uniform on his body. It was just summer, and Carrie Decker's uniform coat only had a corset, and a large area of snow-white skin was exposed on the shoulders, and he could even see To shallow magic lines.
Suldak withdrew his gaze, and his eyes fell on the desk. He flipped through the report scrolls on the desk casually. He picked up the scroll. A strange thing happened one after another in the cemetery. Someone would sponsor a kind of coffin for free to poor families. When someone in these poor families died, someone would come to the door and talk about it. , then he can offer them free coffins.
Regarding this matter, Carrie Decker sent a Constructed Knight to the slums to investigate, but the report was unremarkable.
It is nothing more than that many poor people are very grateful to the cemetery owner who funded free coffins...
"Have you found anything?" Suldak pointed to the file in his hand and asked Carrie Decker.
Carrie Decker said casually: "No, the feedback from the slum area is more normal..."
Chapter 1349
Walking out of the security battalion headquarters building, the street view outside is full of lights. Ruyt City has attracted a large number of business groups in the past two years. Enter the dry cloth plane.
The bustling night makes the city full of vitality, the more night, the more people on the street.
Suldak stopped suddenly before he bent down and got into the magic caravan, and said to Samira who was following him:
"Samira, I leave this matter to you to investigate."
Samira said absently, "Oh..."
Sitting in the carriage, Siya was still curled up in the soft leather sofa and sleeping soundly. Suldak sat down beside Siya, then lowered his voice slightly and said:
"I always feel that this case has something to do with the man we saw just now."
"What happened just now? What happened to you just now?" Carrie Decker was the last to get into the car and asked Samira.
Samira recounted what happened just now, Carrie Decker frowned slightly, took out the investigation report again, and asked, "Do you think there is something wrong with the cemetery owner and the necromancer?" relation?"
"They are the only people who like to deal with the dead," Suldak said.
Samira lowered her head and looked at the crystal slipper on her feet with a sigh. If she was wearing the leather boots she usually wears just now, maybe that person would not be able to escape.
The restaurant was not too far away. Suldak and Samira had just returned from the dance and had no appetite, so they just ate a little with Carrie Decker.
After dinner, Suldak returned to the castle with Sia, who had been obediently waiting in the carriage after waking up.
Carrie Decker didn't want to return to the barracks so early, so he took Samira for a walk on the streets of Ruyt City. Carrie Decker was nearly 1.9 meters tall, and she was very tall among women, especially wearing a Wearing a tight leather armor, with long and straight heads, he is extremely eye-catching when walking on the street.
Samira, who was wearing a beautiful white gauze dress, looked a little petite in front of Carrie Decker, but her elf-like face easily became the focus of the eyes of passers-by on the street.
Samira was used to being watched secretly and turned a blind eye to those people.
On the contrary, after Carrie Decker was promoted to the chief of the guard battalion, he saw patrolling guard battalion knights on the street. Every time he saw them riding past and stopped to salute, Carrie Decker would also stop and salute.
She has only been the head of the Constructed Knights for more than a month, and she has not established enough prestige in the hearts of these Constructed Knights. She does not want to become an arrogant and rude leader in the eyes of these Constructed Knights, so she I usually pay attention to these details.
The second Constructed Knights formed by Suldak are basically the elite fighters of the Ganbu plane lord's army. High loyalty.
Hathaway was walking beside Carrie Decker, but she kept thinking about the scene in the magic caravan in the evening.
If it weren't for the necromancer, maybe the kiss would have been reached... Her cheeks were a little hot.
"I think the most suitable time to go to the cemetery to investigate and find out some information is at night. How about it... If you don't want to go back to sleep so early, do you want to go and have a look later?" Carrie Decker Er asked Samira excitedly.
"...Yes!" Samira recovered from the trance and replied.
"Samira, do you know that there seems to be some changes in you recently?" Carrie Decker walked in front and said casually.
"What?" asked the half-elven archer to Carrie Decker.
Carrie Decker lowered his head close to Samira's ear, and said to her mysteriously: "You look like a silly white sweet who is in love and cares about gains and losses."
Samira stood on the street with a look of astonishment.
……
Hathaway was lying on a big soft bed, her abdomen was obviously swollen and hidden under the silky brocade quilt. She put her hands on both sides of her abdomen, turned her body over with some difficulty, and let herself lie on her side for a while. The closer she got, the huge belly put a lot of burden on her body, and she had to turn over frequently even when sleeping to relieve the pressure of her stomach on her body.
She smiled and looked at Suldak who was sitting beside her, her eyes were as gentle as water.
Every night, Suldak would take a little time to come. He would hold a book and read a short paragraph before Hathaway fell asleep, and sometimes he would wait for Hathaway to fall asleep before leaving.
Worried about accidentally touching Hathaway's stomach, Suldak has almost slept with Beatrice these days. Recently, Suldak has been relatively busy, so before falling asleep, It can be said that it was a rare time for the two of them to get along.
Surdak put his head close to her lower abdomen, and could feel the dishonesty of the little guy in her stomach.
"The nobles in the city have been talking about you all day long. They complained that your punishment of the knights in the guard battalion was too heavy. They said that you harmed the interests of the nobles and won the support of the common people in Ruyt City." Hathaway said. Tell Surdak what you have learned recently.
"I heard that when some old-fashioned families talk about you, they always add the prefix of cruelty or dictatorship."
Then, she added another sentence in a pretendingly relaxed tone.
Suldak kissed Hathaway's smooth forehead, and then said with a smile: "Are you still saying that I was originally born as a commoner, so although I was canonized as a nobleman, I still have the bad roots of being a commoner in my bones?" ? This time when I came back from the Bailin plane and passed by Bena City, Marquis Luther also reminded me to properly repair the tense relationship with these old families."
"Speaking of which, I have no prejudice against anyone, I just hope to be a little fairer, and I don't want anyone to hinder the development of Ruyt City. Whoever stands in the way, I will go up and kick them away. .”
Suldak expressed his own thoughts. There is nothing wrong with the second half of this sentence. The great lord should have this kind of courage, but the first half of the sentence may cause some troubles for the nobles.
Because in the Green Empire, the nobles and the common people were originally unequal.
In the Green Empire, there are several codes specially revised for nobles.
Hathaway finally saw Suldak's stubborn side.
Sometimes, Suldak would regard many of the privileges of the nobility that existed long ago as inequality for the common people... This is the problem.
It's just that these topics shouldn't be overly developed between the two.
Hathaway smiled faintly, and said to Suldak: "Old Earl Benton has passed away, and the news has been officially transmitted in the afternoon."
The old Earl of Benton is the father of the Minister of Logistics, Alan Benton, and he is considered an influential old nobleman in the city of Ruyte. His biggest regret in his life is that his achievements did not allow him to be promoted to Marquis .
"How could it happen that he passed away at this time? Are there any young people from the Benton family in the guard camp?" Suldak asked with a frown.
He was worried that someone would make a fuss about this matter, such as 'the Suldak consul abolished the guard camp of Ruyt City, resulting in the death of Earl Benton'.
"The logistics department and the security battalion have always been at odds. It is impossible for Alan Benton to send the family children to the security camp..." Hathaway said to Suldak.
It can be seen that Hathaway has now successfully entered the circle of ladies.
Suldak put down the book in his hand, thought for a while and asked, "When is the funeral?"
The maid brought over a cup of milk to help sleep, and Suldak took it casually, and helped Hathaway to sit on the head of the bed.
"A farewell ceremony will be held tomorrow morning, and then he will be buried in the Benton family cemetery," Hathaway said.
"I need to be present?" Suldak asked.
"Of course, and you are required to give a speech at the funeral, unless you are busy with official duties, then I will go for you, of course I don't have to give a speech..." Hathaway said.
"Let me go in person." Suldak said without choice.
Then he walked to the terrace of Hathaway's room, and said to Sia who was swimming back and forth in the swimming pool, "Sia, cancel all the things in the morning, and change the time if you can't."
Xi Ya just sobered up and was lying on the marble at the bottom of the pool spitting bubbles. Hearing Suldak's cry, she quickly got out of the water and promised loudly:
"understood……"
The water surface of the swimming pool suddenly shimmered...
Chapter 1350 At the Funeral
In the early morning, when the sky was just getting bright, the lavender in the night sky had not completely faded, the morning star was still hanging stubbornly in the sky, and there was a faint layer of mist outside the city of Ruyt.
A black magic caravan passed through the woods, and Suldak was sitting in it.
This magic caravan without a family emblem has been affixed on the outside of the car by the people of the city hall to represent the emblem of the city hall. In this way, this magic caravan has become very recognizable. Everyone will know that the Suldak Consul is here.
Suldak didn't care about such small things. He stepped out of the magic caravan wearing a black dress, and Sia also wore a dark and simple long dress, sitting opposite Suldak.
Pass through a red pine forest and come to a slope outside the city. This is the territory of the Benton family, and the woodland on the hillside is the cemetery of the Benton family.
Dozens of magic caravans have gathered in the open space below the hillside, and some nobles have already gathered below the hillside.
Many people kept walking up a stone step road that extended halfway up the mountain. Several young people from the Benton family were standing next to the stone steps at the foot of the mountain, calling out to the nobles who came to mourn the old earl.
Some nobles walked along the stone steps towards the cemetery halfway up the mountain. There were already many nobles standing on the long stone steps.
Everyone stood on both sides of the stone steps, some were chatting in whispers, and some were standing silently.
It was only at this time that Suldak noticed that the coffin of the old Earl Benton stopped at the beginning of this stone step, and the Minister of Logistics, Earl Allen Benton, stood beside the coffin, standing with Minister Allen, They were three nobles with badges of honor on their chests, and they seemed very natural when they chatted.
It seems that he is not sad because of the departure of the old Earl of Benton, and his hands are still gesticulating while chatting.
The Benton family should be regarded as a big family in Ruyt City, with a large number of family members, but these Benton families have not shown any outstanding figures in recent years. Minister Alan Benton is the number one pick of the Benton family. The heir, but only the first earl.
Suldak stepped out of the carriage and immediately walked towards Alan Benton.
The nobles who were chatting just now stopped talking one after another. Everyone turned their attention to Suldak who came down from the magic caravan. With a hint of vigilance.
The master of ceremonies at the funeral did not let Surdak come to the coffin, but led him to the cemetery on the hillside.
When Suerdak reached the gate of the cemetery, the bell of "Dangdangdang" came from the foot of the mountain. Suerdak's eyesight was very sharp, and he saw the coffin bearers at the foot of the mountain begin to carry The gorgeous coffin walked slowly up the steps.
The nobles standing on both sides of the steps became serious and stopped talking.
Suldak saw that the members of the Benton family all wore family crests on their chests, and a large group of people stood at the gate of the cemetery, among them were many female relatives.
The master of ceremonies introduced to Suldak that the women standing at the front of the crowd were all old Benton's wives.
When Suldak saw the three elderly ladies, he didn't think it was a big deal.
When he saw that the other women in the front row looked very young, he realized that the old Earl of Benton really enjoyed life...
Among the many wives of the old Earl of Benton, there is actually a wife with light makeup on her face. Under the wrapping of the black dress and turban, her face looks a bit charming, and her figure is extremely hot. Like a ripe peach.
Surdak stood at the highest point of the steps, and his position was particularly conspicuous.
Looking away from the woman, the woman seemed to feel Suldak's gaze. She raised her head boldly and looked at Suldak with a hint of provocation in her eyes.
Suldak glanced back, only to realize that among the wives of old Earl Benton, the youngest woman had very pure and youthful eyes, and there was sadness in her eyes.
Suldak looked away and waited quietly for the coffin to be carried to the cemetery by Minister Allen and others.
When the coffin was carried to the cemetery, the children of the Benton family surrounded the coffin and walked in one after another. Suldak found that even Minister Alan Benton had no sad expression in his eyes, especially those young noble children. .
Among the crowd, only the young wife who was waiting at the back was extremely pale, looking very sad, and gained the sympathy of many nobles.
Someone had dug the grave in the cemetery, and the coffin was put into the pit. The nobles who came to mourn each took a bouquet of flowers, walked around the coffin that had not been covered with soil, and finally put the coffin in their hands. Flowers covered the coffin, and due to the large number of people, it didn't take long for the coffin to be covered with golden sunflowers.
Suldak waited aside, and after everyone went around the coffin, they reunited in front of the tomb.
At this time, the master of ceremonies asked Suldak to come forward and deliver a condolence speech to Earl Benton.
Suldak was not polite either, he walked to the front very quickly, and under the watchful eyes of a group of nobles and members of the Benton family, he said to everyone:
"I know that he is an earl with outstanding military exploits. When he was young, he owned a lord army with outstanding military exploits. He has always been the pride of the Benton family and the greatest glory of the Benton family. Now he I finally finished my glorious life, and now I lie peacefully in this cemetery, living here with the ancestors of the Benton family..."
In fact, Suldak was not familiar with the old Earl of Benton, but his condolences made no one find any faults.
In the end, Alan Benton also stood up and said something. The whole funeral was busy for more than half of the breakfast before it was considered complete.
Seeing pieces of soil being backfilled into the tomb, Suldak realized that the funeral was about to end. He let out a slight breath, and planned to chat with the Minister of Logistics, Earl Allen Benton, after the end.
At this moment, a faint smell of jasmine perfume entered Suldak's nose, and that charming Mrs. Benton boldly approached Suldak, if it wasn't for Samira Stop it, this Mrs. Benton seems to be colliding with Suldak.
"Master Consul Suldak, may I treat you to a cup of afternoon tea?" the charming Mrs. Benton asked Suldak.
Suldak turned his head and glanced at Siya, who immediately opened the notebook, and then pretended to say: "You have to go to Yezipias Manor later..."
"I can't seem to find any free time, sorry!" Suldak turned his head and said regretfully to Mrs. Benton.
