She asked Scarlett, "How did you meet each other?"

Scarlett stood up straight. "These two pastors happened to be on the street outside the court, and they happened to recognize Your Highness, uh, or should I say, Your Highness's fake identity. So they begged Your Highness to tell us about little Daisy's current situation..."

Scarlett put it mildly.

The truth was that the two men were practically on their knees begging, which frightened Eleanor—she hadn't been frightened in open court…

Seeing Funina approaching, Matthew's already red eyes suddenly shed two lines of tears, and he said gratefully: "Miss Bonaparte, I really don't know how to thank you for this. Without you, Daisy would be finished, and so would I! I am such a completely useless waste. If I could only fight back..."

"That's it!"

Finina patted Matthew's shoulder to stop his tears, and said with a brilliant smile, "That's all for the thanks and tears."

Scarlett asked puzzledly: "What about Daisy? I don't think I saw her..."

"I've arranged for someone to take her to the ship to Ansu. And you, Reverend Matthew, you and Mrs. Anderson can leave Iris. I think the church doesn't need a junior pastor anyway."

Tia had already made arrangements for these matters. She continued, "As for work, you can take Daisy to New York. Charles, the new editor-in-chief of New York's Friday Economic Newspaper, is a good person. The Friday Economic Newspaper is in need of professional journalists, so Daisy could find a job there."

Seeing that Miss "Fernina Bonaparte" in front of him had arranged things so carefully and thoughtfully, Matthew's tears were about to burst out again.

He really had nothing to offer as a thank you, so he could only say, "I still have some money saved over the years... 貳亦彡罩qi⑨锍③侕..."

"One thousand pounds. You can also send it to the Friday Economic Herald. I will pick it up then."

 ]鸸亦衤>三午七⒐溜伞栮娅raised three fingers, and Matthew thanked her quickly and gave her two hundred pounds on the spot. He would have to go back and get the remaining eight hundred in cash.

After expressing his gratitude profusely, Matthew took Huck's leave respectfully.

Eleanor handed the ice cream to Tia without thinking, but Scarlett seemed to be thinking about something.

Is it such a coincidence...

Scarlett looked at Fernina's back and felt more and more familiar with her.

But before she could think about it, she saw that the relationship between the two people in front of her was a little too close...

Eleanor held the ice cream cone and said seriously, "It's melted."

"Then eat it quickly! Don't just sit there and watch it melt..."

“It’s so delicious that it’s almost melting.”

"Then why are you looking at what's in my hand?"

"I want to eat that too. Have yours."

"I do not want."

Tia didn't want to eat it either. She wouldn't indulge a naughty child.

Eleanor was a little disappointed and waited until the ice cream cone was almost melted before licking it clean. Looking up, she saw that Tia had also licked it clean, but she ate it more casually, with cream still on the edge of her mouth.

Eleanor moved over quietly, and while Tia wasn't paying attention—whoosh~

"Why are you licking my face?!"

"Ice cream."

"Then go buy it... Does the one on my face taste better?"

"It's almost melted. Delicious."

"........."

When they returned to the hotel, Tia saw that Eleanor's hands were dirty from eating ice cream. She took her to wash her hands, held her hands by the sink, and washed every nail clean.

After finishing, Tia said, "I won't be around Iris these next few days. Eleanor, please keep an eye on the doll for me."

"Oh." Eleanor nodded half-comprehendingly, then asked, "What are you going to do?"

"Go back to Anzu to prepare for the promotion. Also, report the rituals and potions that Annie obtained some time ago to the Suppression Bureau."

"Oh, oh. You get it?"

"of course not."

Tia stretched and said, "But someone should help me deliver this news tonight."

"Do you have an explanation?"

"Of course. Assuming Governor Durant is a scumbag, he must have guessed by now that I was the one who kidnapped Daisy. He'll definitely track her down and kill both Daisy and me. I'm here with people from the Suppression Bureau upstairs and downstairs, including Ms. Bernice. He definitely wouldn't dare to do anything, but he'll definitely guess that Ansu and I are involved, and then he'll guess that I'm definitely sending Daisy to Ansu. And then..."

"Kill them halfway!" Eleanor understood.

Tia played with Eleanor's hand and praised, "Bingo! You guessed it right!"

"And the opponent's Sequence Level shouldn't be low, possibly Sequence 6, but Sequence 5 is probably unlikely. At this level, it's difficult for Durant to order them around at will. But even so, they should know a lot of inside information."

Eleanor nodded and said, "You understand."

Tia didn't think these words were good, so she made the final arrangements: "By the way, in a few days a child named Holly will come to Misty Moon City through Ansu's accomplice in the Empire. She will bring someone very important with her. Eleanor, you will give her some money. I've put the money under my pillow, and you can ask Scarlett to give it to her."

After saying this, prepare to withdraw the soul projection.

Then I heard Eleanor's instructions: "Call. Every night. Otherwise I won't be able to sleep."

.........................

.........................

At eleven o'clock in the evening, Tia had not yet taken any action, but in the deep night of Misty Moon City, a steamship was slowly sailing into the Broken Gold River.

At the bow, Marn Cullen had not slept the whole night. He had not slept for two days and one night since he read the "Golden Book" from Duke Chayipel - even if he closed his eyes, he felt it was a blasphemy to the precious and fleeting knowledge!

Even though the Blind Monastery had been burned down and Master Baiju, the only person capable of translating the secret codex, was missing, the two secret codes of the Empire had already been translated. Even if he was missing, it wouldn't prevent him from showing them to Marn.

Chapel showed him thirty-three pages in total, and just from reading those thirty-three pages, Maan was convinced that this was indeed the Secret Code of Solomon. The deciphered knowledge was still difficult to memorize, but at least he could understand the meaning of each word. He spent two sleepless days racking his brains, trying not to fully understand it, but finally forced himself to memorize it.

At this moment, standing at the bow, Marn Cullen took off his hood and couldn't help wanting to laugh out loud.

As soon as he opened his mouth, he was immediately vomiting due to the stench from the Suijin River.

But this is not a big problem.

The important thing was, he'd been toiling for over twenty years to achieve Sequence 3, and now, finally, it was within his grasp. If he truly succeeded, he'd have the face to meet his teacher.

—As for the irises?

This is nothing, he is here to steal the secret book from the imperial people, not to be a real traitor.

Just hold up a flag and trick a few people into shouting a few times, but are you serious about it?

Behind him, the deputy sent by the Empire to monitor him covered his nose and said with concern: "Sir, the river is too smelly. Why don't you come with me to the cabin?"

Maen laughed and said, "This is what a man feels like, eh! Anyway, eh!"

Maan and his deputy returned to the cabin. After a moment's rest, he asked, "Aren't you looking for a new king? Have you found a suitable bloodline?"

"It's still hard to find. King Lude has no direct descendants, so we can only start with the founding knights. However, most of the knights with names in history left Anzu for the Broken Isles, which is now Saint Engard."

The deputy scratched his head and said, "Originally, we found someone who was said to be the descendant of the son-in-law of the brother-in-law of King Lude's younger brother's wife's maternal side, but when we looked them up, we found out that his ancestor was a bastard. Bastards aren't a big deal, Iris doesn't care about that, but his parents are siblings, which means he has some brain problems."

Maan was surprised and said, "Is it not good to have a problem with your brain?"

The deputy said embarrassedly, "It's not just that he has problems, he's just too smart. He saw through our intentions at a glance and shouted that if we choose him as the new king, he would commit suicide as soon as we publicized it, leaving our reputation in ruins."

Maen felt that this was indeed a bit unlucky, so he recommended: "If it really doesn't work, give up the bloodline inheritance. I have some good candidates here."

"Ah, sir. Actually, we did find a very suitable candidate today. Most importantly, she seems to be quite popular. She just made a big move today, and many people in Misty Moon City have heard about it. If we choose this person, we can save a lot of effort on promotion."

"Is there such a thing?"

"Yes, that's right. Her name is Funina Bonaparte."
