Be the Mayor From Today
Chapter 396:
"Catherine, what's wrong?" Darlene asked in surprise.
"I'd better eat less and save some for the next meal." Catherine put down her chopsticks and forced a smile, "Daliana, are you leaving?"
She is not stupid, but she is usually rather playful. Today, when Darlene came over, she could guess that the other party was leaving the capital and was going to the magical Xiyang City.
"Uh..." Darlene was stunned, then nodded and said, "Well, we're leaving tomorrow, do you want to go together?"
"..." Catherine was silent for a moment, her golden eyes flickered, she shook her head and said bitterly, "I'm afraid I won't be able to go, my father has grounded me."
"Who did the Duke decide to marry you?" Darlene asked with a serious face.
"I don't know yet." Catherine shook her head and sighed, "Recently, both the eldest prince and the second prince have come to contact their father, and they all want to get their father's support."
"In other words, the Duke hasn't decided who to marry you yet?" Darlene was obviously relieved.
"Yeah, but it's not far away. By the summer of next year, you'll know who to marry." Catherine's face was calm, her golden eyes quietly staring at the meat on the plate, but the back of her hand holding the chopsticks bulged. .
"Catherine, you..." Darlene frowned, she didn't know what to say.
"Me? I don't know what to do anymore." Catherine put down the chopsticks, her tone was helpless, "Father will not change his mind, I can't be willful any more."
"Is there really no other way?" Darlene asked abruptly.
"No more." Catherine shook her head and said bitterly, "My father said that if someone is more dazzling than the prince, he can let me marry him, Darlene, do you think it's possible? Who can be compared to a future What about the king's prince?"
"This..." Darlene was at a loss for words, this request was definitely impossible, unless someone rebelled, or another prince came to ask for marriage, or the kind of prince who wanted to become a king.
"Would you like to sneak away?" Darlene said in a low voice, her blue eyes glancing in the direction of the door.
"Impossible." Catherine frowned and sighed, "I've already tried it. I didn't even go out of the duke's mansion before I was intercepted by the knights."
"This..." Darlene opened her mouth and stared at Catherine, not knowing what to say to comfort her.
"I understand, my fate has long been decided, and no one can save me." Catherine's golden eyes were insincere.
She knew that this day would come, and she wanted to struggle and struggle before, especially during the time in Xiyang City, which made her think a lot, such as elopement.
But reality is reality, without the capricious capital given by her father, she is just a girl who knows a little bit of music, and nothing else.
"If, I said if..." Darlene's blue eyes flickered, and she whispered, "If there is a chance to let you leave the Duke's Mansion, will you leave?"
"Of course, definitely." Catherine said decisively, her golden eyes looking forward to Darlene, waiting for her next words.
"I will ask Your Excellency Liu Feng for help." Darlene said with a serious face, she decided to give up the share of the proceeds from this transaction and use it to ask Your Excellency Liu Feng to help.
"But... But, Your Excellency Liu Feng, you won't necessarily agree." Catherine clasped her hands tightly, her expression very complicated, worried that Your Excellency Liu Feng would not agree, and hoped that Your Excellency Liu Feng would agree, but she agreed that the other party would be in danger...
"Try it, maybe you will agree." Darlene said calmly, she couldn't watch her good friend's happiness ruined like this.
Chapter 0475 The killer strikes.
"Is this Xiyang City? It's really run down."
Outside Xiyang City, a 1.6 meter girl was wrapped in black linen, including her hair and ears.
Her name is Mila, she is a killer, ranked among the top 100 killers. Today, her task is to kidnap the city lord of Xiyang. As long as the person is **** and taken to the designated place two days later, she can get 130 gold coins , such a lucrative task, if she just happened to find someone in the west, it would not be her turn to take the task.
It's her first time doing the killer's job as a kidnapper, what's your experience? Definitely not, but seeing such an earthen city wall, this target noble must be nowhere near as powerful.
"This city wall is really bad." Mila shook her head. She was a little nervous at first, but she was relieved immediately.
Mila walked towards the gate of Xiyang City, and when she saw a group of knights guarding the gate, especially the fine armor on the knights, her green pupils shrank and her body collapsed.
She stepped into the city, but no one stopped her in the end, which made her breathe a sigh of relief, and there was a hint of sneer at the corner of her mouth, but she didn't interrogate her. It seemed that these knights were just like gatekeepers.
"Che, I thought it would be intercepted and checked, but I didn't expect to come in so easily." Mila sneered, she walked through the city gate to test the knight's reaction ability of Xiyang City.
She was ready to start, killing a few knights to cause a riot, then sneaking in to observe, looking for opportunities to win the mission target. But the plan can't keep up with the changes, well, there is no change at all, do you want her to come forward and provoke? She couldn't do something so stupid.
"Huh... Find a place to rest and have a full meal." Mila patted her stomach and looked up at the sky. It was afternoon.
Mila was stunned after entering the city, looking at the scene in front of her, the broad avenue, the snow-free ground, and the neat houses.
"Did I come to the wrong place?" Mila muttered to herself, she turned and walked out of Xiyang City.
Under the shocked eyes of the soldiers, she came to the soldiers and asked, "Is this Xiyang City?"
"Yes, this is Xiyang City." The soldier guarding the city gate straightened his back.
"But..." Mila raised her finger in surprise and pointed to the city wall, and then pointed to the direction of the city.
"The Lord of the City has issued a notice that Xiyang City will rebuild a city wall next year." The soldier answered skillfully.
The soldiers guarding the city gates are used to being asked this question. Those new businessmen often ask this question. After all, Xiyang City is so prosperous, but the city wall is a very dilapidated city wall.
"Rebuild a city wall?" Mila blinked, her face a little more serious.
"Miss, are you here to travel? Or are you here to eat food?" the soldier asked curiously.
"Ah?" Mila was stunned, then tilted her head in confusion, "Why do you ask like that?"
"Because our Xiyang City is very famous in this area, people often come here to watch football games and eat delicious food." The soldier chuckled lightly.
"Is that so?" Mira nodded, understanding why she didn't interrogate her. There were simply too many people like her, and the knights were used to it.
As for what the game was, she didn't ask, and didn't want to know about it. In terms of food, she could give it a try.
Mila turned around and walked towards the city gate, frowning in thought, not seeing the soldiers behind her who were staring at her walking.
After Mira walked away, the soldier said to his companion, "There is something wrong with this person. You can see that she walks without a sound at all. She is a powerful person."
"Then hand over the news." The companion said quickly.
"Okay, you guard first." The soldier immediately turned around and walked into the city. As long as there was a suspicious person, he would upload the information.
"Go."
...
Mira didn't know what to ask casually, and the soldiers noticed her. She is now squatting on the side of the street observing the people coming and going, especially those orcs, this is what shocked her the most.
"There are orcs living in this city, what the **** is going on?"
Mila's green eyes widened, and she muttered in disbelief, "Why isn't this in the information you gave?"
She doesn't know what to do anymore. The peaceful coexistence of humans and orcs has hit her too hard, and she doesn't know how to start.
"Damn, those **** actually missed such important information." Mila scolded through gritted teeth.
