Steel, Guns and the Industrial Party Across the World Chapter 173

Inside the Embassy of the Principality of Eaton, a waiter walked in the corridor nervously.

He came to the room where the Grand Duke and his wife stayed and reached out to knock on the door.

But she hesitated when she reached out her hand just now, the princess was resting inside, if it was in the past, she would never mind being disturbed when she was resting.

But it's hard to say now. After getting up in the morning, a maid was scolded for exerting a little force when combing her hair.

This was simply unimaginable before. You know, Her Royal Highness is notoriously good-tempered, and she has always treated the servants around her generously.

However, the servants all understood that the reason for His Highness's big change of character was because her younger sister, Lady Fanny, disappeared, or more precisely, she was kidnapped.

After all, Lady Fanny is the only close relative of His Highness besides her husband.

To make matters worse, no clues were found for several days.

After hesitating for a while, the waiter knocked on the door of the room.

A tired and worried voice came from inside: "What's the matter?"

The waiter felt distressed for a while, Father in heaven, please stop torturing this poor Highness.

He cautiously replied: "Your Highness, a lady who claims to be Ladi Setia Gerald came to ask for an interview. She said that she has an old relationship with you, and we cannot refuse."

"Has she heard from Fanny?"

There was a hint of anxiety in the voice of the Grand Duchess.

"Unfortunately, Your Highness."

"not see!"

"Yes."

The waiter turned around and was about to leave, when suddenly the voice of the Grand Duchess came from inside:

"Ladi, it's actually Ladi! Bring her in, bring her in quickly?"

The waiter was a little confused, but it was clear that the Grand Duchess had changed her mind, and the lady who came to visit did know His Highness, and it seemed that the relationship was not ordinary.

He immediately walked outside quickly.

The voice of the Grand Duchess continued to be heard in the room: "Ladi! Ladi Satia Gerald, I knew you would appear by my side when I was most helpless."

Under the guidance of the waiter, Ladi walked through the corridor and came to the door of the room of the Grand Duke and his wife. Two maids guarding the door opened the door of the room.

She looked inside and saw a beautiful lady sitting on the sofa. After the door opened, she immediately stood up and looked over.

This is the Grand Duchess of the Duke of Eaton—His Royal Highness Helen. This Highness has chestnut hair and a pair of charming brown eyes. She was once a well-known beauty in Jiaowan. How many noble young people's hearts have been broken.

But at this moment, although Her Highness Helen's outward beauty remained the same as before, her complexion had lost the radiance of the past. From the perspective of those around her, Her Highness had lost a lot of weight in just a few days, which really made her lose weight. People are distressed.

Ladi sighed and walked into the room, the princess waved slightly, the waiter who brought Ladi bowed and left, and the two maids outside closed the door of the room.

Now there are only Ladi and the Grand Duchess left in the room.

With no one else around, the Grand Princess lost control of her emotions in an instant. She quickly walked up to Ladi, hugged her, and said in tears:

"Ladi! You know everything about my sister? I... what should I do now? If something happens to Fanny, how can I explain to my parents in heaven?"

"Senior Helen..."

Ladi caressed the opponent's back and comforted him softly.

"There will always be a way, and I'm here to help you."

"Well~ thank you, thank you."

Grand Duchess Helen was sobbing and thanking her. Although she was wise enough to tell her that Ladi's ability alone was limited and she probably wouldn't be able to make much difference, she had to try every straw she grasped now.

Ladi helped the princess back to sit on the sofa, held her hand and said, "Senior Helen, please calm down first, and explain to me in detail the clues you know, those 'special' clues."

Her Highness Helen calmed down, and described the incident in detail.

Ladi noticed the key point: "So, the most suspicious thing in the whole process is that the guards and clerks collectively 'forgot' how many hours of memory?"

Her Highness Helen nodded and said, "Yes, magic, this must be the effect of magic."

Ladi asked: "Could it be caused by drugs? For example, amnesia."

The Grand Duchess shook her head, and said with great certainty: "No, as far as I know, there is no drug that can precisely control people's forgotten memories for a few hours. Although amnesia grass can also make people lose their memories, its time The segment is random, and there is a high probability that it will erase all memories from the time I remember it."

"But whether it's Fanny's entourage and guards, or the owner and clerk of that store, none of their previous memories have been lost, but they have lost the memory of the most critical hours on the day of the crime. It's magic, only magic. to achieve this effect.”

"In addition, this is the most direct evidence!"

She took out something and put it on the table. It was a stone, a slightly blackened stone.

Ladi recognized the stone right away, "The magic-seeking stone?"

"Yes, after suspecting that the person who bǎngjià Fanny was a sorcerer, I went to the store to check it myself, and confirmed my suspicion with this stone."

The Grand Duchess of Eaton, Helen Elwes, besides her lofty aristocratic status~www.mtlnovel.com~ also hides another identity—mage.

With the help of her noble status, her mage identity was well hidden. Although the witch hunt in the south was intensifying, no one knew about it, not even her husband, the Duke of Eton.

So far, only two people know her secret, one is the mentor who guided her to step into the path of mage, and the other is the junior girl who studies magic with her—Ladi Setia Gerald.

The Grand Duchess cried and said: "What should I do? I can't tell my husband about this! He must not be able to accept this!"

Ladi fell into deep doubts: "If it's our kind, why would you bǎngjià such a high-status noble girl? Especially in the grim period when the witch hunting movement is growing stronger, such a high-profile and dangerous behavior , aren't you asking for trouble?”

"Same kind?" The Grand Duchess suddenly raised her voice, and resentment appeared in her originally beautiful eyes.

"Ladi, you still think that such a person is the same kind? I absolutely do not agree that the person who committed such evil deeds is our kind. He, or they, whether they are mages or not, are nothing but human beings, scum, and garbage! I must tear them to pieces."

Ladi was a little worried, she knew the character of this senior sister very well, she was kind and gentle, but now she has a slight tendency to blacken, it seems that her younger sister was hit too hard by the gangjià.

After the other party calmed down a little, Ladi asked softly: "Senior sister, think about it carefully, is there anything special about Fanny? It can make the mage interested in her, willing to take such a big risk against her. "

"There is indeed something about Fanny that would interest a mage."

The Grand Princess suddenly became calm and said slowly.
