Chapter 401 Night Visitor
"Thor?"
Seeing Heloise falling out of her room so weakly, her expression and body were so weak.
Ronald realized something was wrong and came to him in a flash to help him.
"What's going on with you?"
"Cough, cough, cough..."
Heloise was obviously in a bad state now.
As soon as she was held in Ronald's arms, she immediately started to cough out of breath. After she regained her energy a little and raised her head to carefully identify Ronald in front of her, the girl spoke with great difficulty: "
Please... please put me away and don't tell anyone that I have been here. The injury will heal on its own." , please..."
These words seemed to exhaust Heloise's strength.
After finishing speaking, Ronald clearly felt that the other party's body softened, and his head was in his arms as soon as he opened it. In the blink of an eye, he was already unconscious.
"..."
Faced with this situation.
Ronald first tore off the blood-stuck clothes on the other party's body, and after confirming that the stab wound on the waist and abdomen had healed, he gently picked up Heloise.
Snap -
With this movement, the book hidden in the girl's underwear fell down.
"Original classic..."
Just looking at it, Ronald recognized "Elements of Harmony" written on the cover.
This is the original book that he personally helped Heloise obtain on the ship on the Vis River. The girl's injuries were so serious at this moment that even such an important original book was allowed to fall to the ground.
Of course, it could also be an accident caused by tearing off his clothes...
With this thought, Ronald directly put the unconscious girl and Yuan Dian on his bed, and finally helped cover the quilt with him before closing the door and returning alone. living room.
Ronald had no desire to covet his friend's original text.
After taking two steps back to his somewhat dark room, he turned to look at the balcony.
There was no trace of blood when Heloise came in, and the curtains were drawn early to block the outside view.
Even though he was seriously injured, he still managed to hide his traces.
"This is really of excellent quality..."
Ronald sighed in a low voice, picked up the kettle and went to the fireplace, lit the flame to provide some lighting for the room, and also boiled water to prepare some water for drinking.
"Huh..."
Staring directly at the flames that began to flicker after being lit in the fireplace, Ronald was still thinking about the possibility of Heloise appearing in his home.
The first is the phrase 'don't tell anyone she came'.
As Heloise, this sentence may not only refer to helping her block possible enemies. Even if Heloise's former companion appears, Ronald may have to pretend that the other party is not there. .
Otherwise, with my friend's habits, he would never be able to say the word 'anyone'.
Then there was the reason why Heloise came to her home.
Judging from the results of many previous contacts, this girl from the neighboring country Entrod should be an important member of the secret service or some kind of secret organization, and she also has the job of playing multiple identities.
A person with this status will definitely have a safe house or other place set up by his own people in case of emergency. That is the hiding place that Heloise should choose.
But now a seriously injured person comes to her home...
Is there a traitor in the organization she belongs to?
Thinking of this, Ronald's eyes froze, but he quickly shook his head.
"No, it's more than that."
Ronald interrupted his above speculation.
He felt that these inferences were largely lacking.
Current affairs in Springs are chaotic, and things cannot be viewed from just one angle.
Think about what happened to you today.
None of the high-ranking personnel in the church district, including the original code holders who were almost certain to exist, were missing. At the same time, the top officials of the Investigation Bureau who were supposed to provide quick support also did not show up.
This means that almost all of the official powerful spell casters in Springs were transferred away by something today, which led to this situation.
And to be able to directly interfere with personnel changes at this level...
in the entire Springs, or in the country of Greed, I am afraid that only the Queen has this qualification.
As a result, the most critical information nodes were arranged in order one by one in Ronald's mind, and then the specific logical sequence emerged.
Take advantage of the moment when all forces converge on the Springs.
The queen of Greed ordered the powerful magic casters on the mysterious side to wipe out the forces that Entrod had planted in the country. In order to ensure that this plan went absolutely smoothly, powerful spell casters like Spencer who defected from Entrod , or even be completely excluded from the plan.
A fight ensued.
The official forces in Springs City have an absolute advantage.
And Heloise finally broke through and escaped successfully by relying on her extremely strong fighting qualities and the fact that she had just become the holder of the original code and was missed.
Wait...
Ronald thought of something else.
The enemy who stole the Sword of Santa Caterina in the church district today was certified by Spencer, a guy from Entrod, as a secret spell of that country.
He and Sister Martha pursued together.
It was still at the Oak Theater, near the stronghold of the Heloise organization, that the saint's legacy was recovered.
Although I really didn’t know it beforehand.
But it is very possible that Heloise's current fate has something to do with him...
Woo hoo hoo -
At this moment, the water in front of Ronald boiled.
He immediately took the kettle from the fireplace and prepared to pour water, but then he turned to get his cup, and Ronald's originally smooth movements stopped in the air.
I encountered this kind of thing late at night.
The investigation of the power of 'Rage' is of course non-stop.
So when someone came to this street full of murderous intent, Ronald also sensed the other person's appearance.
"Say Cao Cao, Cao Cao will be here..."
Although he frowned, Ronald had no fear in his heart.
This guy with murderous intent in his heart is now alone. It doesn't look like there are at least two investigators working together, and it doesn't look like someone from the church who has carefully sensed the spell wrapped around him.
Since it is not the two official forces of the Investigation Bureau and the Church.
So what else does Ronald have to worry about?
After carefully hanging the kettle on the shelf nearby, Ronald walked slowly towards his balcony.
This person who appears out of nowhere moves very quickly.
In just a few seconds, she had already walked around the back of the apartment, ready to jump up from the balcony like Heloise used to do.
"It's just right. It's convenient for me not to be seen when I come in."
"..."
sighing in a low voice, Ronald even generously opened the curtains.
Then, the enemy simply jumped up and arrived in front of Ronald after several jumps.
Watching the other person holding a sharp blade with an anxious look on his face.
Ronald raised his eyebrows subtly:
"I didn't expect it to be you?"
