She Is Not a Witch Chapter 104: Night of Swords
Fireworks are in full bloom in the sky. The residents and tourists in Hopland are still immersed in the festive atmosphere, but the dark tide is beginning to surge in the remote corners of the city.
People in a hurry walked through the streets constantly, they knocked on closed shops and doors, and opened dusty warehouses.
A middle-aged man who had just fallen asleep opened the door with sleepy eyes, and those who wondered who would knock on the door so late.
A dusty figure stood at the door, wearing a short robe, his face looked unreal in the dark night.
"Is it Emerson?" the hurried guest asked briefly.
"Yes." The middle-aged man was a little confused, who would come to me so late.
After hearing the affirmative answer, the man in the short robe raised the parchment roll in his hand and said.
"The Tisifones helped you in the past, now is the time to fulfill the promise."
Under the shining of the brass lantern, the parchment scroll is clearly written with black handwriting on the convening document, and the signature is the owner and heir of the Tisiphone family.
At the same time, the bottom of the sheepskin roll is covered with three bright red seals, which are'Dagger Piercing Skeleton, Seven Color Gem Flowers, and Tilting Wine Bottle', which symbolizes the most powerful Chamber of Commerce in Hopeland, Tiziford Joint statement by Nie, Anemuyi, and Nessos.
Looking at the shocking red inkpad, the middle-aged man suddenly woke up, no sleep, he asked in shock.
"Is it now?"
"Yes, bring your weapon, wear armor, lock the door, draw three crossed swords on the door, and then go to the Tissifune Chamber of Commerce immediately."
"If there is no weapon or armor, the Chamber of Commerce will also prepare it, but it doesn't necessarily work together."
"Okay, I see."
The middle-aged man nodded solemnly, and the messenger who informed him did not stay after seeing that he had achieved his goal, and immediately went to the next house.
and the middle-aged man rushed back to the bedroom and quickly opened the bed board, revealing the low and long wooden box locked underneath.
opened the lock. Inside was a big sword wrapped in oil paper and a set of chain mail. He immediately began to take off the unsuitable coat on his body and began to wear it.
"Dad, did something happen, your voice is loud?" A young girl voice came from the next room.
The middle-aged man hesitated, then continued to wear the chain mail, and said with a warning: "When Dad is going out, I will lock the door. Remember, no matter what happens outside tonight, Don't even open the door."
"What's wrong? Dad..."
A little girl in a light-colored nightdress opened the door and saw her father wearing chain armor and holding a cold two-handed sword in her hand, her eyes widened in surprise.
"There’s no time to explain to you, baby, don’t worry about Dad, Dad will be back in a few days. There is still food in the cellar, don’t starve yourself, and don’t open the door, no matter who it is, no matter you What kind of sound do you hear, do you understand?"
"I understand." The little girl looked at her father obediently and nodded.
"Okay, okay, my good Shanna."
The middle-aged man looked at his sensible daughter, hugged her with a rough, calloused palm, and then touched her head affectionately.
Then he took out a white chalk and drew three crossed swords on the door, and asked his daughter to lock the door, and finally rushed into the night without looking back.
Scenes like this happened everywhere in Hopland. Horse-drawn carriages with the logos of the three major chambers of commerce rushed through the streets. The horrified street vendors and tourists had to evade urgently.
Hopland’s top five chambers of commerce, except for the newly promoted Calites in the past ten years, the others are deeply entrenched. I don’t know how many connections and relationships have accumulated in the past 100 years. The pitfall of Si is also expected. Even if there is no Mrs. Mela, there will be Mrs. Shera, Mrs. Mela and so on. If it weren’t for Angus’s early reconciliation, then the newly promoted Calites would really not He must have beaten the Hollis house.
The forces of several major chambers of commerce in the city are intertwined, and some external personnel are even more among you, and you among me. As soon as the three companies moved here, the Hollis family immediately received the news.
"Miss, now the other three companies in Hopland have suddenly begun to gather staff, and even the wireliner said that they have prepared weapons and are ready to go to war."
Under the dim candlelight, Mei Lu just walked out of the bedroom in her pajamas. There were several reporters standing outside the door, and the family guards were next to her, waiting for orders.
Although I don’t know the specific purpose of the other three companies, it’s certain that they must deal with the Calitis and the Hellis family, because Hoplander, except for the two large chambers of commerce, other People are simply not qualified to be so inspiring.
Meilu looked serious, and after hearing the news, she commanded without any hesitation.
"I immediately sent a messenger to notify Calides to let them know the seriousness of the situation, and to ring the big bell to call everyone in the chamber of commerce. In addition, we have old friends in the city, good friends, and often cooperate Friends of, these people immediately sent familiar people one by one to inform them to immediately transfer to the headquarters of our chamber of commerce. The reason is that there will be civil strife in Hopland tonight, and the Hollis family will protect them."
"Every family says twice. If you still don’t listen, just leave it alone and switch to the next one."
"Yes, eldest lady." Several obedient high-level managers next to them immediately took action.
"In addition, send someone to open the underground warehouse of the Chamber of Commerce, move out all the weapons and armors, and distribute the weapons to everyone, and then you better disciplined guards will each bring a team of ordinary personnel. Every experienced guard is Captain, immediately organize all the people in the chamber of commerce."
"Your will, Miss." The captains of the guards also hurried out.
After that, Mei Lu looked at the only guard captain left~IndoMTL.com~ The existence of Sequence 4 is the son of her mother's brother, which is her cousin.
"Brother Gerd, please organize manpower to guard the gate tonight, please."
"Don't worry, Meilu, I will protect you." The guard in dark golden armor looked at his sister with concern, and promised, then walked out quickly, leaving a broad back.
Mei Lu stood under the window sill in the corridor and watched a rush of bells ring in the courtyard, and then scattered lights came on, and there were people running and walking everywhere, the sound of armor rubbing, footsteps, and shouting The sound and the sound of moving objects are racing to sound, making it extremely noisy at night.
"Miss, why are you still wearing thin pajamas, that's not good."
The head maid walked up the stairs, looked at Mei Lu who was still standing by the corridor window, and called out loudly.
"I remember that the master had collected a few extraordinary soft armors before, and I immediately found them for you. You are now the owner of the family. If there is an accident, the Holliss house will really be over."
"It's okay, Aunt Lige, I trust everyone."
"In addition, if even I face each other with swords, then the Hollis family will actually be dead." Meilu turned her head, and the figure under the silver moonlight seemed a little silent.
"No, you have to wear it. It's as disobedient as you were when you were a child. Master dare not care about you now, but I dare, I raised you all by one hand."
The head maid forcibly pulled Mei Lu back to the bedroom, still talking about it.
"I take more time to take care of you than to take care of my own children. If you have any accident, how can I stand it."
Mei Lu was pulled, although she did not admit it, there was a faint tear in her eyes.
