"Miss, don't be impulsive." Carmen said, "The situation is unclear right now. If you act rashly and fall into the enemy's hands, you may in turn become a burden to the lord. I have some old brothers in the city. Decide."
Chris rubbed her fingers back and forth, the expression on her face changed, and finally sighed helplessly, "That's the only way to go."
She tapped her forehead and suddenly realized something, "That guard just now?"
Carmen nodded, "I recognize him. He used to be the lord's personal guard. What he said just now should be a warning to us."
Chris pouted a little irritably, sparks were faintly splashing between her fingers.
She is only 14 years old this year, and she has already stepped into the category of gold-level professionals. With such talent, even in the imperial capital where there are many geniuses, she is still at the top of the group.
The price was for her studies. She didn't go home for seven years, and her father only visited her twice.
This time, she was also thinking about her dearly, so she insisted on asking the teacher for leave, to go home for a while, and spend time with her father.
While thinking about it, the sound of horseshoes and ruts came from the official road.
Chrissy looked up, and saw a luxurious carriage coming from the direction she came from. The driver was a middle-aged woman. The curtain was opened to let in the air. There were two very beautiful women sitting in the carriage.
The person on the left is petite, with extremely smooth moon-white long hair, and a beautiful appearance. Among the people Chris has ever met, she is definitely the first. Even Her Royal Highness Mei Ji, the Pearl of the Imperial Capital, is not as good as her.
The one on the right has a mature and good figure that Chris is extremely envious of. Even when she is sitting, she can see the grace of her curves. She has long dark blue hair, which is extremely rare, and her face is so cold and beautiful. How much inferior the girls are.
In this area that can't be called prosperous right now, seeing two such beautiful ladies suddenly, Chris was stunned for a moment.
It wasn't until the luxurious carriage drove to the side that the moon-white-haired girl blinked her eyes and showed a somewhat mischievous smile. Chris realized that her eyes were too straightforward, and she quickly turned her face away and looked away.
It's no wonder that she became a nympho at a young age. These two ladies are so beautiful that Chris couldn't control her eyes.
But soon she felt ashamed in her heart, her father was still shrouded in conspiracy, how could she be obsessed with watching Miss Sister?
Chris patted herself on the cheek a few times to cheer herself up, and planned to agree to Carmen's request, go back to the city of Red Lily of the Valley first, and find some helpers before she can act.
"This little girl is quite interesting."
At this moment, Chris heard a voice from the carriage next to her.
The one who spoke was a girl with white hair. Her voice was clear and pleasant, as beautiful as her appearance, which made Chris feel dazed again.
The girl regained consciousness again, her face turned red and she dared not speak.
The moon-white-haired girl became interested, she asked the driver to stop the carriage, blinked her beautiful eyes and asked, "Little girl, I think you have some troubles, do you need help?"
Chris nodded in a daze, then immediately shook her head again.
The person who secretly plotted against her has the ability to influence the military, and the manor doesn't know what's going on, so it's better not to drag these two good-looking and kind ladies.
"Tell me~" The moon-white haired girl looked at Chris with a smile, her voice seemed to be coquettish.
There was a numb feeling in Chrissy's heart, and she had the urge to pour out all the troubles in her chest. She bit her tongue, stimulated herself with pain to stabilize her mind, and said, "It's some of my family affairs. I'm sorry to bother you."
The moon-white haired girl turned her eyes slightly, pointed to a badge on Chrissy's shoulder, and said, "Are you a member of the Yege Magic Association?"
"Huh?" Chris was a little surprised, "You know this?"
Her teacher is an old member of the Night Song Magic Association. She is outstandingly talented, and she was also drawn into it by the teacher and developed into a member of the association, but she has not participated in the assembly of the association.
"I'm also a member of the association, and I'm an old friend with President Shaman." The moon-white-haired girl raised her palm, and there was a special badge with small wings in her palm.
Chrissy's pupils shrunk. This badge has a special meaning in the association. Only those who have been the VIPs of the magic association assembly are eligible to hold this badge.
To put it bluntly, the people who can get this kind of badge are all bosses who have been certified by President Shaman!
Seeing that this young lady is so young, not a few years older than her, she is actually a hidden and powerful person?
Thoughts turned in Chrissy's mind. She didn't believe her eyes, but she was willing to believe President Yege's judgment!
"Hi, hello." Chris jumped off the carriage, bowed and saluted, "My name is Chris Holder, and I am a new member of the Nightsong Magic Association. Who are you?"
Hearing the girl's self-report, the plain middle-aged woman driving the car frowned slightly, slightly surprised.
Carmen got out of the car and stood beside Chris in a guarding posture.
"My name is Amy, and this is Sirin. In terms of identity, you can just treat us as passing mercenaries." The moon-white-haired girl said with a smile, "If you have any troubles, you can hire us to solve them~"
Carmen secretly gave Chris a look, warning her to be careful.
But Chris is willing to believe these two passers-by who met by chance, apart from the factor of the identity badge, there are also some intuitive judgments.
She took a deep breath, sorted out the thoughts in her mind, and told Amy about her recent experiences.
"If you don't waste your time, I would like to ask you to help me investigate Holder Manor and find out what happened inside." Chris summoned up her courage and made a request.
Amy scraped her chin with her finger wheel, with an expression of interest on her face, she didn't agree immediately, and turned to look at Sirin, asking for advice with her eyes.
Sirin nodded slightly, she generally would not reject the things proposed by the moon elves, unless it was really outrageous.
"Okay! I'll take over this entrustment!" Amy said, "The payment can be settled later, but I have to remind you, little Chris, my fee is very expensive."
"As long as you can save father, the reward is up to you!" Chris said quickly.
She doesn't have any valuables in her hands, but her father has been in charge of the Red Lily of the Valley for many years, so there should be some stock in the family's treasure house, and the remuneration will be paid by her father.
Amy nodded, with a satisfied smile on her face, and said, "Then let's simply discuss the plan, should we just call in and arrest people for questioning, or?"
The driver was Rosa, and she said, "If Amy-sama decides to resort to violence, I can help you with the finishing touches."
"Don't listen to her." Sirin reached out and pinched the ends of Amy's hair. The Moon Elf's suggestion just now can be classified as "outrageous".
"It is the manor of the lord's family after all. We still have to pass through the territory, so we don't have to do too much." Sirin said, "Let's find an identity to infiltrate the manor, find out the news before acting, so as not to hurt innocent people."
Compared with the moon elves, Sirin is somewhat lawful and less chaotic.
"Then I'll listen to you~" Amy put her arms around Sirin's arm and shook it lightly.
Watching the interaction between the two young ladies, Chris felt inexplicably sweet in her heart, and an idea came to her mind:
Shouldn't she put down some things about magic practice for a while and find a good friend?

Old Fate: Chapter 84 Infiltration
In Holder Manor, in late spring and early summer, the outdoor temperature is neither too hot nor too cold, which is the most comfortable state.
The weather was fine, butler Buddy was sitting at the stone table in the corner of the yard, dealing with the documents in his hand.
This is the manor of the lord's family. In addition to managing the manor-related matters, Buddy, who is deeply trusted by the lord, will also be responsible for handling some administrative affairs of the territory.
"The sowing of this spring was affected by the selection ceremony of the Holy Maiden of the Evangelical Church. A large number of fields gave up the first season of cultivation and shifted the focus to the second half of the season. In the middle of the year, there will be some vacancies in terms of food, which can be..."
The elderly butler calculated the measures and gains and losses in his mind, and finally drew a circle on the paper document and wrote the word "to be determined".
Before he put away his pen, guards came from outside to report the news.
"Just now there was another liar pretending to be Miss Chris, who was chased away by the guards at the door!"
The old housekeeper frowned slightly, and said: "It's handled well, Miss just came back for a few days, don't let these boring chores disturb her good mood."
"Yes!" The guard cupped his hands and turned to leave.
The man didn't mention the manor badge, nor did he say that the coachman in the duo of liars looked familiar.
When the guards walked away, the old butler rubbed his eyebrows and said in a low voice: "It seems that we must hurry up."
"Grandpa Buddy, why hurry up?"
A clear girl's voice sounded, and a red-haired girl, accompanied by a maid, walked to a place not far from the old housekeeper.
Buddy waved the document in his hand, and said, "Miss Chris, it's fine. This year's spring plowing will be affected. I'm wondering if I should hurry up and hoard grain."
The girl called "Miss Chris" has long, flaming hair, slightly curly hair, and a bright face. She looks only fifteen or sixteen years old, but her figure has already begun to show the majesty of the mountains.
"There's no need to worry." Chrissy said, "Our red lily of the valley territory is fertile, the crops are excellent, and the people are rich. Most of the families have surplus food. If we don't cultivate for a season, the impact will not be too great. Stock up on food It may not be feasible to sell it, but it will crowd out warehouse storage.”
The old housekeeper lowered his head slightly, "Miss is smart, what you said is right."
He took a pen and drew a cross on the circled word to be determined.
The old housekeeper thought about hoarding food, not for selling it, but for helping the people when there was a shortage of food.
Miss Chrissy hasn't returned to the Red Lily of the Valley collar for seven years, and she is so familiar with the situation in the collar. Apart from being a precocious genius, she really cares about her hometown.
The old butler smiled in his heart, but still had a warm expression on his face, and said, "Miss Chris, are you planning to go out?"
"Go for a walk." The red-haired girl said, "I haven't been home for a long time, there must be a big change in Honglinglan City? I want to take a stroll."
"I heard that there are cultists in Twin Springs recently. Miss, if you go out, you'd better bring a few more guards." Buddy suggested.
The girl looked at the brown-haired maid beside her, clenched her fist and said, "It's okay, I'm accompanied by Noel, she's much better than those guards! I'm also a magician myself, so I'm not afraid of those cultists!"
"It's better to bring a few people, and it's fine to carry your things for you." Buddy said with a smile.
The girl was helpless, "Okay then."
She casually pointed to a few guards on duty, "Just a few of you!"
The guards looked at Buddy and asked the old butler for his opinion.
Buddy said: "You must protect Miss, understand?"
The guards nodded in unison and walked behind the red-haired girl.
The eldest lady led the maids and guards out to relax. The old housekeeper slammed his fingers on the table, and a group of new guards immediately came to pick them up.
He continued to flip through the documents in his hand, and asked, "Is there any action on the Lord's side?"
One of the guards shook his head and said, "Stay in the garden, guarding the field of lily of the valley, just like before."
"Where's Mrs. Liwen?" Buddy asked.
The guard replied: "In the study."
Mrs. Liwen is the wife of the current lord, but she is not Chrissy's biological mother. The eldest lady's mother died after giving birth to her, and Mrs. Liwen is the continuation.
Unlike the original lord's wife, Liwen and Old Holder had a purely political marriage. She was the daughter of an old aristocratic family in the imperial capital.
It's a pity that Liwen's womb has remained silent all these years, and she has not been able to give birth to new children for the lord, and the heir of the territory is still Miss Chrissy.
The relationship between the stepmother and daughter was not harmonious, and Old Holder also arranged to deal with it, and occasionally mediated, only maintaining a superficial peace.
Buddy is an old domestic servant, but he can't take care of the private affairs of the lord's house. He can only sigh silently when he hears the guard's return.
About four years ago, Old Holder became obsessed with flower gardening. He spent most of his time in the large garden of the manor every day, and basically put down his affairs.
Buddy and Mrs. Liwen each handle half of the affairs without interfering with each other, maintaining the operation of the manor and territory.
The old housekeeper tried to persuade the master more than once, but he didn't know the magic power of the garden. Holder just couldn't let it go. Because of this, he even delayed his annual trip to the imperial capital, and didn't see his daughter for several years.
When Miss Chris came back recently, Old Holder's behavior was neither salty nor dull, as if he didn't care about his daughter.
If he hadn't remembered the past and often talked about the deceased first wife, the old butler would have suspected that the master had been secretly replaced.
The old butler shook off the thoughts in his mind and continued to process the documents. Not long after, another guard came in to report the news.
"There are distinguished guests from outside the manor!"
The old butler frowned: "What distinguished guest?"
"The senior management of the Phoenix Chamber of Commerce, she reported her identity as the executive director of the Northern Division of the Empire, and there is no problem with the identity badge verification." The guard said.
The old housekeeper suddenly stood up, and said: "Such a distinguished guest, why leave him at the door like this? Let's go, hurry over!"
The guards have little knowledge and don't know the gold content of the position of the head of the Phoenix regional branch, but Buddy knows it very well.
Such an honored guest had to be received personally by his lord to be qualified. Now that he was acting on his behalf, he had to show 12 points of respect so as not to treat the honored guest badly.
He hurried to the door, and saw the luxury carriage parked on the official road at a glance.
The configuration of this carriage is quite advanced, which also proves the identity of the visitor in a disguised form. The driver wears a mask, looks stern, unsmiling, and behaves quite professionally.
Probably hearing the sound of hurriedly approaching footsteps, the curtain of the carriage was lifted, and a middle-aged woman with a majestic face came down.
Buddy hurriedly stepped forward to greet him, and said respectfully, "Hello, distinguished guest. I'm Buddy, the housekeeper of the manor. My lord has been ill recently, and it's inconvenient to welcome guests. I'll entertain you. Don't be surprised!"
The middle-aged woman showed the Firebird badge in her hand, and said calmly: "My name is Rosa, and I am the director of the northern region of the Phoenix Chamber of Commerce. It's due, so let's talk in advance."
The red lily of the valley has rich arable land resources and is rich in certain spices. When Old Holder was still in charge, he signed a long-term business agreement with the Phoenix Chamber of Commerce. Calculating the time, it will expire in October this year. Rosa will come to talk at this time The renewal of the contract is quite normal, and there is nothing wrong with it.
"Let's go to the manor to talk, Your Excellency Rosa, please come in!" Buddy took the initiative to step forward and welcome the guests to enter.
Rosa pointed to the carriage and said, "My relatives are in the carriage, can we go in together?"
"Of course no problem! They are all distinguished guests of our manor!" Buddy said enthusiastically.
