Miss Witch's Speed ​​Run Manual

"No need, just go ahead and follow me."

The white-masked bishop spoke slowly, his calm tone holding an unyielding tone.

Julis, who had originally wanted to take advantage of the handover to remind her sister to pay attention to her safety, had no choice but to nod and follow the bishop to the back door and get on the carriage back to the Vatican.

……

"Go visit your family and friends on your own. I won't bother you."

After checking the time on her pocket watch, Avina looked at Charles and said, "I'm going to prepare for the banquet... four o'clock, remember."

"it is good."

Not long after leaving the Church of the Savior, Avina said goodbye to Charles.

She knew that Charles would go to his family to reminisce about the past. Although she had indeed met Charles' sister before, the meeting was not very formal.

She wasn't ready to introduce herself to Charles' sister yet, so she decided not to bother her for the time being.

Avina took a carriage back to the manor, and Charles also found a carriage, their destination being the Gem Avenue.

It's already ten o'clock in the morning. I slept a little longer this time, but the good thing is that I feel much more refreshed.

If he could continue to receive Avina's treatment, Charles felt that he could recover completely and smoothly.

However, we also have to consider Avina's own mental endurance... I will talk to Avina when the time comes and discuss the most appropriate treatment plan.

Soon, the carriage took Charles to the door of the "Crystal" jewelry store on Gem Avenue. As soon as Charles got off the carriage, he saw Lizzie wiping the glass counter in the store.

This time, Charles didn't just stand outside and watch, but walked straight to the jewelry store and pushed open the door.

"Welcome... Welcome to Crystal."

It seemed that she didn't expect someone to come so early. Usually, those ladies only came to shop at night. Lizzie quickly turned her back and hurriedly put on the mask hanging around her neck.

But soon, she felt a shock on her waist, as if something came running towards her and hugged her from behind.

"Little Charles?"

Almost instantly, the word came out of Lizzie's mouth. When she turned around, she saw a familiar smile.

No one has ever hugged me like this except my sister.

"How did you come?"

Li Qi's voice was filled with a hint of surprise, but she quickly lowered her voice, pointed to the serious-looking store manager sitting behind the counter, and whispered, "I'm still working..."

"fine……"

Charles released his hand, smiled at Lizzie, then looked up in the direction of the store manager and said, "Miss Avina asked me to take Lizzie over there."

"Go."

The store manager nodded without saying anything more, still keeping a serious face.

Then, Charles took Lizzie's hand and walked out of the jewelry store, standing beside the Jewel Avenue where people were gradually coming.

“Miss Avina really called me?”

Lizzie asked curiously as she blinked in Ciel's direction.

"No, I lied to her."

Ciel smiled and shook his head.

"What if you're discovered like this..."

Lizzie reached out and pinched Charles' face, giving him a little lesson.

"She won't find out."

Charles acted as if he didn't care.

Anyway, the store manager was Avina's former maid and is now just helping Avina look after things.

Moreover, the store manager had no way of verifying whether Avina's name was Lizzie. Even if he really wanted to verify it, Avina would probably cooperate with him first after hearing that it was a red-haired girl who said it, and then come to him to ask the reason later.

The current relationship between Avina and Charles is probably beyond the imagination of others.

Charles randomly found a cafe that looked nice. Just as he was about to take his sister in, he suddenly thought of something. He stopped and walked towards a street vendor selling dried yellowfin cod. He turned around and asked, "Have you eaten yet?"

This kind of fish fried in oil is crispy and delicious. It is a classic street food in the city of Buren and is also common in the Clocktower Lane area because it is cheap enough and has a high protein content.

But apart from fried fish and baked potatoes, there are not many delicious food on the roadside.

"not yet."

Lizzie shook her head, walked up to the vendor with a smile, and said, "Give me two fried fish."

The fish sizzled in the frying pan. Lizzie looked at Charles and asked, "Have you been busy lately? You haven't sent any letters."

"It's quite busy indeed. I've been learning a new language and reading a lot lately."

Ciel nodded. After thinking for a moment, she asked, "Where's your sister? How's everything been lately? I went back home and found you were cleaning."

"Um……"

Lizzie nodded and said, "Because I was going to church, I went to clean it on the way."

Even though the lease is about to expire, it was still a home that provided shelter for a long time.

Whether it's Lizzie or Charles, whenever they have free time or do something important, they will subconsciously choose that place.

"Church... I just went there and donated some money, begging for the goddess's blessing."

Ciel responded.

"Aren't you an 'atheist'? Why are you praying to the goddess?"

Lizzie asked curiously.

"Life is hard-earned now, so I have to beg the goddess to take care of me."

Charles was very frank. She had spent a lot of money and dared to make any wish.

"Ha ha……"

Lizzie smiled and rubbed Charles' head, then seemed to have thought of something and said, "Little Charles, you'd better not go to the Clocktower Alley area recently."

"Huh? Why?"

Charles took the grilled fish wrapped in oil paper from the boss, handed it to Lizzie, and asked, "Is there anything going on there?"

Lizzie hesitated for a moment before saying, "Recently, many people have died in factories... Some are due to the previous 'dehydration syndrome,' but many others seem to have died from overwork."

"Many workers are very resentful right now, and the Blackwater Gang doesn't even dare to collect protection money. It's better to stay away from the Bell Tower Alley area for the time being."

Sudden death from overwork...workers...

this is not……

Ciel had seen this scene in the simulation.

However, in the simulation, she was a clerk, handling a case in which workers sued the director of the mint. The factory owner was acquitted and the justice of the peace was Baron Hastings.

But that was on July 7st, and it’s only July 21nd now. Could it be that things have been brewing so early?

Charles felt a little uneasy in his heart.

However, this is just an ordinary workers' protest. The nobles and wealthy businessmen of Ansu should have rich experience in dealing with it. Moreover, Avina's assets are related to the gem mining industry, so she should not be involved.

After taking a bite of the fried fish in his hand, Charles swallowed the crispy and fragrant fried fish with some difficulty.

It wasn't because it tasted bad, but because she was already very full.

"Okay, I won't be going to the Clocktower Alley area later."

Lizzie and Ciel continued chatting for a while. After learning that Ciel was living a good life now, Lizzie felt relieved.

Especially now that Ciel has started studying again, this surprised Lizzie a little. After all, she had originally planned to let Ciel go to college no matter how hard it was.

Now, Charles is obviously working towards her own goals, and it sounds like she has a good relationship with Miss Avina.

If it weren't for the huge difference in their status, she would also like to personally thank Miss Avina for taking care of her sister.

Later, Charles had to find other friends to report his safety. After shopping with Lizzie for about an hour, he sent Lizzie back to the jewelry store and said goodbye.

Looking at Charles' back, Lizzie felt a wave of relief in her heart.

Before he knew it, the little sister who followed behind him had grown up to the point where she could support herself.

She was not worried that Charles would encounter any danger outside. With her sister's vigilant personality, she would never put herself in danger.

Instead, Lizzie was worried that her sister might use her cleverness to break the law - after all, she heard that some people studied law just to exploit loopholes in the law.

But my sister wouldn't...right?

Chapter 141: Living High in Linxia.

In the following time, Charles visited Avina's clinic and Amy's home.

Adele was not at home as expected, but was staying in the laboratory of Avina's clinic. Amy happened not to visit any friends, so Charles did not leave empty-handed.

The two were surprised when they knew they could find Charles at will later. However, Adele was still a little worried and took Charles for a comprehensive examination. Only after confirming that there was no major problem did she let Charles leave the laboratory.

What surprised Charles was that not only he, but Amy also received an invitation to Avina's party - but it's not quite right to say so.

This invitation is sent to Baron Hastings, but the Baron will bring Amy with him.

However, Baron Hastings was very happy about this, and thought that it was because his daughter Amy knew Avina. When Charles went there, he arranged a lot of desserts that he had never seen before. However, Charles was too full and didn't eat much.

After all, in the past, the banquets hosted by the Russell family were basically not a chance for a new small noble like Hastings, who was on the edge and had no land, to participate, as the two were not in the same class.

By the time they left Amy's house and headed towards Avina's manor, it was already one o'clock in the afternoon. At this time, Charles remembered something.

Avina...didn't she say she would take me clothes shopping?

She said she had nothing to do today and could stay with me for a while, so why did she find an excuse and leave in a hurry after I went to church?

What happened?

Thinking of this, Charles quickened his pace a little.

Avina's house was not far from Amy's house. After walking quickly for less than ten minutes, Charles arrived at the gate of Avina's manor.

At this time, Charles had already seen a lot of expensive carriages parked in the manor. The servants in the manor were guiding the coachmen in an orderly manner to let the nobles and wealthy businessmen get off the carriages at the gate of the mansion, and then towed the carriages to the stables.

For some reason, this scene reminded Charles of the scenes in his previous life when the presidents of some European countries hosted banquets to entertain others. Luxury cars also drove into the garden one after another, took turns to make a circle and let people get off.

Although there are only horse-drawn carriages here, the scene is no less grand than the one on TV.

Charles, who had only seen this kind of scene in videos before, couldn't help but feel a little strange when he saw it in real life.

"Ms. Charles? Are you here?"

A maid waiting at the door had already noticed Charles walking in the distance. When Charles reached the door, she hurriedly went to greet him, "Miss Avina is busy, I will take you in first."

"it is good."

Charles nodded, then followed the maid, but instead of taking the busy avenue, he went around to the garden, preparing to enter the mansion from the back garden.

This scene happened to be seen by someone in a carriage.

"Father, who is that?"

The girl sitting in the carriage, peeking out, pointed at the plainly dressed girl walking off into the distance and asked curiously, "Why doesn't she have an invitation?"

"I don't know, maybe the maid who hasn't changed yet."

The blond man just glanced at the red-haired figure's back and lost all interest. This was not any noble he knew, and he didn't remember anyone whose daughter had red hair.

"She's not a maid. Didn't you see that the maids were very respectful to her? She must be of high status and very familiar with Avina. I bet you that."

The girl seemed a little unconvinced and shouted.

"Instead of thinking about this, why not think about how to talk to Miss Avina later?"

The man raised his hand and rubbed his brow, then said, "Sit down and behave properly!"

"Ah."

The girl sat down obediently, somewhat unconvinced, but she couldn't help but mutter, "I told you, it's useless to try to get close to Avina. She's not the kind of person who can be flattered..."

"Then your pocket money for next week will also be..."
