Chapter 31 Meg, Head of School(2/2)
When Meg arrived on the battlefield, she told the soldiers on both sides to sheath their swords and point their guns at the ground with just one sentence.
She carved a "peace boundary" in the border area - as long as she considered herself a "soldier", she could not cross the boundary. When she got close to the boundary, she would feel great fear and be so shocked that she could not move at all.
That boundary existed for four years before gradually fading. Now that relations between the two countries have improved, it has become a well-known attraction to commemorate the short war that only lasted ten days.
Of course Haina is not her old man's student because she is not qualified yet.
Shylock was once invited to become her disciple - but he refused.
And the old lady didn't force it. But from then on, she stopped recruiting new students.
It is said that she has recently begun to prepare to retire from the position of deputy director of the Arbitration Office. This is a well-known secret at Wangli Law University - because the new deputy director will be their young principal.
And this principal was also a student of Principal Meg.
"It was in the newspapers, wasn't it?"
Old Meg looked at her, raised her eyes, and asked with unclear meaning.
Haina was extremely nervous, lowering her head and not daring to raise it: "Yes, I'm very lucky...I didn't actually do anything, mainly Mr. Aiwass..."
"——Oh, 'Sir'."
The old lady smiled and repeated: "You respect him very much."
Haina was startled and held her breath. She didn't know how to answer.
"Don't be ashamed, you did the right thing. I heard Yannis talk about him."
Meg's voice was sonorous and powerful, like tightly clenched steel: "'The stronger is more correct.' Whether you are his senior or senior, if you are not as good as him in this matter, then you must obey him."
command—this is in line with the philosophy of the authoritarian path.”
Hearing this, she relaxed.
Haina was encouraged to be recognized and encouraged by her highly respected teacher. It was as if the world in front of her had brightened up and her body seemed to have become much lighter.
This even gave her the courage to ask: "Excuse me, Principal Meg... are you here to see me?"
"yes."
Meg smiled frankly and said: "Isn't it obvious?
"You are a good boy, hardworking and serious. But you are still a bit stupid."
Meg commented on Haina, who graduated a year early and still maintained perfect scores in all subjects, as "a bit stupid".
This made Haina a little frustrated.
She knew she was far behind Sherlock...but she didn't know how talented Sherlock was vertically.
Haina didn't know what kind of talents the seniors from Shylock's level on up were. Because they had all become mid-level and high-level officials, their past identity information had been kept confidential.
But looking at her appearance, the corner of Meg's mouth slightly raised, giving a rare affirmation: "But, we kings who walk in the path of authoritarianism don't have to be smart.
"Let me ask you - you know the Pelican is closing, right."
"……Yes."
It's normal if it's turned off.
Haina said in her heart.
It was, after all, the meeting place of the Noble Red Order, a group of illegal supernatural beings - they couldn't get together to talk about iris literature and elven poetry, could they?
"Did you know that your roommates often go to the Pelican Bar?"
When Principal Meg saw Haina who was suddenly startled, she raised her eyebrows and added: "[Tell the truth]."
"——Not often," Haina blurted out, "but they did go there."
She realized almost immediately that she had leaked the secret.
But in front of those on the authoritarian path, she has no secrets.
"Have you been invited?"
"They invited me once, but I declined. They didn't invite me after that."
"oh."
Meg said with deep meaning: "No wonder you don't know."
Do not know what is this?
"Do you know what they went to the Pelican Bar to buy?"
"buy what……?"
Haina was a little confused.
"They are going to buy cosmetics."
Meg gave the answer directly: "The powerful cosmetics made by the alchemists of the Kingdom of Star Antimony can make the skin of people in their thirties and forties look as supple and supple as teenagers - although let me tell you, they
She is far from the age to use this kind of thing. But it is normal for girls to be interested in this kind of thing.
"Star Antimony's Beauty Potion is also selling very well. Although the side effects of the Beauty Potion can cause physical weakness and significant muscle loss - I have repeatedly warned that some of my students will still use it."
……ah.
Haina was stunned.
——She said, something is wrong!
She had thought before that the skin of the ladies in the capital was so tender and fair that they could squeeze out water. They all belonged to the "Individual Tactics School" and had practiced swordsmanship and riding skills, but there were no calluses on their hands.
The skin of the thighs has not been worn at all. The waist is slender and soft, with no trace of muscle at all.
Before, Haina thought it was because of their talents, and she also felt inferior for a while - she felt that she was too earthy, her body looked like someone doing farm work, and it was too easy to gain muscle.
Now she finally knows.
It turns out they took medicine!
"——Do you have anything to say?"
At this moment, Principal Meg looked over with a deep look, interrupting Haina's thinking.
Her mind suddenly went blank.
I...what did I just want to say?
But the next moment, she vaguely caught something.
"The alchemy products of the Star Antimony Kingdom should be illegal, right?"
She murmured: "That's contraband...I understand, that's why they didn't invite me again and again. Because they knew I had no money."
"...No, isn't the Pelican Bar the gathering place of the Noble Red Society? Why can the Pelican Bar sell smuggled alchemy products?"
She was suddenly excited and reacted: "Is the Noble Red Society related to the smuggling case?
"No, that's not right - are they related to Star Antimony officials?"
"Not too stupid."
Old Meg nodded with satisfaction.
Finally, she got down to business: "Our spies in Xing Antimony sent back important information——"
"Wait, wait, am I qualified to know this..."
Haina keenly sensed the strong sense of crisis and hesitantly muttered to herself in a voice that only she could hear clearly.
Meg completely ignored Haina, who suddenly became timid again, and said to herself: "A batch of powerful, small-sized portable alchemy bombs were transported to Avalon. The target should be the Glass Island.
"The power of this batch of bombs is enough to blow up the entire Red Queen District. We have never found traces of the inflow of these bombs before. But starting from the day before yesterday, when we investigated the Pelican Bar... the Inspectorate found that these bombs
It's delivered through the Pelican Bar.
"The contribution you have made is much greater than you imagined."
Meg's eyes were as sharp as a hawk.
She laughed boldly and patted Haina on the shoulder: "So, I'll give you a chance.
"Both the Supervisory Office and the Arbitration Hall are investigating this matter. Originally, your Supervisory Bureau had no access to this kind of thing. But whether it is you, Sherlock or that Aiwass, they all interest me very much.
"I'll give you temporary authorization to go and investigate - if your director has anything to say, just ask him to come to me. Bring any consultants you want to invite, and give him whatever you want, and I'll reimburse you; if you can't find out,
It's okay, I'll take care of it.
"I want to see if I was wrong a few months ago. If you investigate and find important information before we solve the matter..."
