Miss Witch's Speed Run Manual

there is a problem.
"How many people know about this? You, Amy, Ashford, how many other 'doctors' know about this besides them?"
Avina looked at Adele and asked seriously.
Adele is just happy about her luck, about being able to solve the "corruption epidemic" and save more people. She is even ready to publish her papers and results directly, hoping that the matter can be resolved as soon as possible. She doesn't even want to make a fortune from the patents.
But she overlooked a very important point... No, it wasn't that she overlooked it, but that she didn't realize it at all, and Charles hadn't told her about this possibility - this could also be considered as Charles' negligence.
The main reason was that she really didn't expect Adele's luck to be so good that she could find something that could really solve the epidemic.
It is very likely that there is a level 4 transcendent in Bei'ansu who is using the plague to complete the ritual, and Adele's discovery has the potential to end the plague.
Although it was only a possibility, it was enough to attract the attention of the Pleasure Society.
"Um... Besides Amy and I, there are three other 'doctors', you know... plus Professor Ashford, there are six people in total."
Adele seemed to have noticed that Avina's tone was wrong and whispered:
"Professor Ashford said that the paper can only be published after we go to Ansu City, and it must be signed under his name, not mine..."
If Sherron's previous seizure of Adele's paper's authorship rights was just exploiting Adele's labor, then Ashford's actions were completely protecting Adele.
This matter involves too many things, and Adele's name must never be made public.
Fortunately, all the members of the pleasure club in the city are under Charles' control.
"Write down the names of the three doctors."
Ciel brought a notepad and a pen and said, "Name, appearance, and if you know where you live, you can also write it down."
"it is good……"
Adele nodded repeatedly and started writing without hesitation, selling out her former colleagues. After writing it down, she handed the notepad to Charles with both hands.
They are all level 1... One of them is a student of Ashford...
Ashford couldn't be completely without doubt.
"What else did Professor Ashford tell you?"
After Charles finished reading the list, he looked at Adele and asked.
"He told me not to tell anyone about this... and kept urging me to go to Ansu with him..."
Adele said hesitantly.
It seems Ashford knows something.
Charles tore off the list, stood up, opened the door of the living room directly, and waved in Tara's direction.
"Lord Charles, what do you want?"
Tara quickly ran to Ciel and asked in a low voice.
"These few people, let's see if they are still in Burren City."
Charles lowered his voice and said, "Let him investigate. Don't expose yourself."
The "he" here naturally refers to Simon of the Chaos Squadron.
"As you command, Lord Ciel."
Tara took the paper, bent down and took a few steps back, then turned around and walked quickly towards the door.
After Charles sat back in his seat, Adele drooped her shoulders and asked weakly, "Charles...did I do something wrong again..."
"fine."
Ciel shook his head and said soothingly, "Just keep an eye on those people... Your discovery is groundbreaking and may attract some attention."
"And the plant? Did you give it to Professor Ashford?"
Avina asked.
Now, Avina hopes that the plant has been handed over to Ashford. In this way, Adele can withdraw from the public eye. Even if Ashford really has a problem, he will not target Adele again after getting the plant.
——After all, Adele has a sister who serves as the high priestess of the Savior Goddess Church.
"I gave him the blade."
Adele said, "The flowers are here..."
Adele pulled out a glass tube from her waist.
The light blue liquid in the glass tube sparkled with spiritual light. Amidst this light, a violet floated quietly inside. Combined with the liquid, its color turned into a deep indigo blue.
In Charles' eyes, these were not flowers preserved in liquid medicine.
It's a time bomb that could explode at any time.
"Avina, I think we have to go to Ansu City in advance..."
"I'll have my housekeeper book a train for tomorrow, and I'll take care of everything today."
PS1: Shocked little Charles.

Chapter 181: The episode with the most people.
"Miss Amy, let me help you put your things away..."
"Thank you."
In Avina's mansion, the maid was carrying two large suitcases and walking upstairs, while Amy, who was standing next to the housekeeper, looked a little restrained.
This was her third time coming to Avina's house, the last time being for a banquet.
This time it's a private visit, and I have to sleep here for one night... I heard from Charles that the train tickets have been booked until tomorrow, and the departure speed is much faster than Amy expected.
"Amy..."
A familiar voice came from the reception room on the right. Amy looked in the direction of the sound and saw Adele leaning weakly against the door.
"Adele, what's wrong with you?"
Amy knew that Adele was also going to stay tonight, so she wasn't too surprised. She nodded politely to the housekeeper and trotted towards Adele.
At this moment, Adele was like a puddle of melting ice cream, slumped on the ground leaning against the door frame, with a look of despair on her face.
Amy bent down slightly, pulled Adele up, and asked, "What happened?"
"Ugh……"
Adele, who was pulled up, sighed slightly and asked casually: "Where's Charles?"
"Ciel asked me to come over and then went to see her sister... She's in the Gem District and should be back soon."
Amy suddenly thought of something and asked, "How is the paper? Has it been published? What did the professor say about it?"
"No... thesis..."
Adele was about to speak when she noticed the maids walking around nearby, so she said, "Let's go to the study and talk."
The two came to the study on the second floor. In the study, Adele told Amy everything that had just happened.
Amy was very interested in topics related to the supernatural, so she listened carefully to Adele's story.
After she finished listening, she roughly understood what had happened.
Although she and Adele had similar interests, as the daughter of a noble, Amy's sense of politics and human relationships was far more sensitive than Adele, who came from an orphanage.
"That violet... might be more important than we thought, Adele,"
After a moment of hesitation, Amy continued, "Right now, we're probably like kids walking down Clocktower Alley with a thousand-pound note in their hands..."
This mutant flower is actually worth a thousand Soviet pounds?!
Adele was shocked, as this was more than her savings at her peak.
"Our findings are highly likely to work,"
Amy smiled and consoled him, "But maybe he's worried about attracting some people's covetousness, so Ciel wants to gather us here for easier protection."
"Then why did Ciel send people to find those 'doctors'?"
Adele thought about it and said hesitantly, "Hush money?"
"probably……"
Amy hesitated for a moment, but when she thought of Avina's wealth, she nodded and said, "She must be paying the hush money to prevent the information about this flower from being leaked to more people."
After the two chatted about this topic for a while, they both saw through the window that another carriage drove into the manor and stopped at the fountain.
Amy: "Is this Ciel's sister?"
Adele: “Should be?”
Amy asked curiously, "Is Ciel's sister also a transcendent?"
Adele shook her head and said, "I don't know. I haven't met Charles' sister yet."
"Oh……"
Amy nodded slightly.
She hadn't met Ciel's sister either.
When I sent people to check Charles' address before, I heard some rumors about Charles' sister, and most of them were strange nicknames like "freak".
"I saw Ciel,"
After seeing a red-haired figure, Amy couldn't remain calm in her seat anymore and stood up and said, "Let's go get her!"
"Ah."
Adele nodded.
Now she is a little afraid to see Charles...
Because of his good intentions but bad results, Charles had to go to Ansu City early, disrupting Charles' original plan.
And the kind-hearted Charles didn't blame her, but worked with Avina to help her finish the things she had done this time... To be honest, Adele would rather Charles scold her severely, otherwise the guilt in her heart would be difficult to eliminate.
Meanwhile, Charles was walking towards the mansion with his sister, nodding to the old butler who was standing at the door to greet them.
"Little Charles...are you really going to stay here tonight? Didn't Little Avina say that she was kicked out of the family and is now on the verge of bankruptcy..."
Lizzie looked at the magnificent and gorgeous building in front of her and held Ciel's hand tighter.
Is this really the house where someone on the verge of bankruptcy lives? Is the meaning of bankruptcy described by Little Avina a little different from what I understand?
Li Qi felt like she would be exhausted after walking around the entire manor twice...
"It's okay, just one night."
Charles walked into the mansion holding Lizzie's hand and saw Adele and Amy coming towards them.
"Ciel~"
Amy smiled and waved in Ciel's direction.
Adele, on the other hand, placed her hands in front of her and whispered a greeting to Charles.
She hadn't slept all night, and she felt guilty, so her voice was so soft that even Amy, who was sitting in front of her, almost didn't hear it.
"Let me introduce you, this is my sister, Lizzie."
Charles began to introduce them to each other, "This is Adele, a doctor, and this is Amy, a friend we met at the academy."
"friend?"
Lizzie looked at Amy curiously, then leaned over to Ciel's ear and whispered, "Do you have any friends in the academy? Why haven't I heard you mention them?"
"We were not close friends at the academy, but we became close later on."
After Ciel finished replying to Lizzie, he looked in Adele's direction and said, "Adele, I have a favor to ask of you."
"Okay...ah? What's up?"
Adele agreed subconsciously, but then realized what was going on and asked.
Ciel: "Let's talk in the room first."
