MTL - The Barrage Said, I Am the Final Villain In the Game-Chapter 242
Chapter 242
When the summer sun passed through the clouds, it seemed to lose some strength.
When it fell to the most prosperous city-state on the Rhineland and was held in people's hands, it seemed that it was not so hot.
So, Corinna withdrew her hand covering her forehead and looked towards the street.
She came here because she was informed by Lynn that the plan would start today, and she was asked to wait in the store.
Although she didn't want to show up, whether it was out of curiosity or insurance, she finally came.
As for whether to show up or not
Well, consider it as appropriate.
It's just that, before their plan is about to kick off, there seems to be someone else performing on this stage.
"Little friend, come here, don't be afraid if I give you this candy, uncle is not a bad person, look around, everyone has a share."
"Hey, you want this flavor, no problem, come here, give it to you."
"You don't need to thank you. If possible, we hope to exchange a word of blessing—to a newcomer who is about to walk on the red carpet."
“.”
Corinna looked at the people who were distributing sugar in the distance, and was a little curious about where they belonged.
It doesn't seem uncommon to give out sweets on the street for a good omen when you get married, but as far as she knows, these people who give out sweets do not only exist on this street, except for the silver avenue with stricter traffic control and some ordinary people. It seems that there are people of them outside the places where people can't get in.
"Who... has such a big show?"
Curiosity drove Corinna to walk towards the crowd who gathered to discuss eating melons.
"Hey, sir, you know. Whose family are they from?"
When the masses eat melons and share gossip with others, they often have enthusiasm that they don't usually have, so they are happy to answer questions for girls.
"I know, it's Talinkos, and the one who gets married is the boss's most beloved eldest daughter."
"Tallinn Kos"
Corinna suddenly realized.
The surname Tallinkos is very familiar to her, because the family with this surname is the leading businessman in Catalina. According to folklore, if the assets he owns are converted into gold coins, the combined value of several dukes Can't compare to him, because his industry has even developed to the center of the empire.
If his daughter was going to get married, then this scene might not really be a big deal, and it might even be a bit shabby.
—Someone among the people who eat melons has the same idea as Corinna.
"Tsk, a big businessman, give some candy to his daughter when she gets married? Why do you just give a few gold coins to everyone?"
"That's right, you said that if you want to make the show bigger, you should make it bigger. It's nothing to give candies to children. Now the momentum is quite big. This core can't hold it up. You have to chase after the tall. I don’t want to let bloodletting, no wonder those nobles always say that merchants are synonymous with hypocrisy.”
"Hey, you're being arbitrary. As far as I know, they're really bleeding—one room can burn down the Catalina Hotel that we've made ten years of money in one night, you know? They, the whole thing Someone booked it, and also said that on the wedding day, anyone can go in and have a meal, and the ticket only needs a word of blessing."
"This and that do have cards."
"Cut, that's it. If you have the ability to move the wedding venue to the cathedral, what's the point of booking a hotel."
"Just say whether you want to go or not!"
“.”
Corinna lost interest after listening for a while.
The wedding was not a good thing for her.
In the weddings she participated in, basically all of them were tedious etiquette mixed with false blessings. Few of the guests cared about the present of the new couple. happy.
All, her impression of the wedding was not very good.
But just as she was about to quietly withdraw from the crowd, an unexpected exclamation made her stop involuntarily.
"Huh? That carriage is very beautiful, is it the lady of the Tallinkos family? She pulled the curtain, my God, it is so beautiful, if only I could"
"Hurry up and shut up, that's a Hammer Trinks, just look at the pattern on the carriage with your blind eyes. That, that, that is a royal carriage!"
"What?!"
The onlookers were shocked, and Corinna was also shocked. They looked in the direction pointed by the person who made the sound, and then began to doubt life at the same time.
The reason why the onlookers were stunned was simple.
The carriage, judging from the badge style, is indeed a royal carriage. At least in the Rhine Kingdom, no one would dare to use it. But, why is there only one carriage?
In most people's minds, when members of the royal family go out, shouldn't the silver armored knight clear the way, the guards on both sides clear the field, a carriage in the middle, and the people who follow the mountains and tsunami?
Now, except for the people behind, there are no knights in the other labels, and there are only three or two guards, and the people are still stunned.
This is completely out of line with their imagination!
And the reason why Corinna was stunned was actually the same as the people who eat melons.
She knew that the one in the carriage must be Charlotte, but why, this way of appearance?
Didn’t they say they would come here secretly and then spread the word quietly?
This is too high-profile!
It will definitely cause turmoil! !
"This bastard, did you lie to me again?"
Corinna gritted her teeth and muttered, but Lin En, who was observing from a distance, had already frowned.
In the agreement yesterday, he had already agreed with the girl that someone would pick her up when she came out.
But the person he sent did not receive it.
It shows that the plan has changed.
Charlotte is likely to be stuck in the palace by some accident.
At first, he thought that the plan could only be postponed for the time being, but he didn't expect that the girl still ran out, and it was in such a relatively "high-profile" way.
Now, his plan is about to change.
However, in front of so many people, it is impossible for him to go off the field and make fine-tuning, so he has to find an opportunity.
So Lynn continued to observe.
In the distance, the girl has already got off the carriage with the support of the female officer.
There are many people on the street, but there seems to be no one, because only the sound of the girl's footsteps steadily falling to the ground echoes quietly between the sky and the earth.
Everyone is curious, what is this girl from the royal family who should be a princess by her age doing here?
Although she stopped at the door of a jewelry store, but... the princess is short of jewelry and wants to go outside to buy it?
What a joke!
The clerks in the jewelry store were talking crazily.
What kind of rags do they sell?
"Don't come in, we don't know how to receive you, I don't want to die because the pronunciation of the first word is not standard."
The prayers of the clerks didn't work. The girls still walked towards their positions with light steps. When the hands in white lace gloves rested on the door and pushed it open, the clerks almost I heard the unsheathing of the death scythe.
"Hello."
A middle-aged woman who looked like a store manager hurried out from behind, trying her best to use the communication skills she had developed over the years to communicate with the other party, but unfortunately, under the pressure of her identity, she could only utter one word in her greeting , I can’t even name it—how can I say it! Who knows if she is a princess or someone from the harem! If I make a wrong call, I'm afraid it will cost 8 yuan on the spot! !
It is wrong to say it, and it is wrong not to say it. The woman feels bitter in her heart, and she wants to stick her neck out on the spot.
—But the other party was not moved by her faux pas.
"Hello."
The girl's voice was soft and soft, like a flower petal that wouldn't splash when water drops fell on it, and her next words were the same, even worse.
"My appearance seems to have troubled you, sorry."
"No no no no no no!" The female store manager shook her head frantically, "Your arrival is our honor, an honor that our ancestors have never had in eight lifetimes! How could it be trouble!"
The girl smiled, and didn't continue to struggle, she just said softly: "I came here at the invitation of your boss, so... Corinna, is your boss there?"
boss? !
A trace of bewilderment flashed in the eyes of the female store manager.
If she refers to the previous boss, then she knows who it is, but she was notified not long ago that the real boss of this shop has changed, and she hasn't seen him yet. Where!
"I am here!"
Corinna's voice suddenly appeared, but it came from outside the store.
She entered the jewelry store one step later, and appeared quietly under the puzzled eyes of the shop assistants and Charlotte's delighted eyes.
"Sorry Your Highness." She bowed apologetically, "I just went to deal with some things, so."
"It's okay." Charlotte squeezed the hem of her clothes, leaned closer to her, and whispered, "I still have to say sorry to you, Sister Corinna."
"?" Corinna was about to ask why Charlotte said her name instead of Lynn, when she heard her words, she tilted her head, and slowly typed a question mark, "Why do you have to apologize to me?"
"Because." She whispered, "I ran out with the excuse of 'I have an appointment with you'."
"Huh?" Corinna still didn't understand.
"The thing is like this, I was planning to sneak out, but due to some special reasons, the sneaking method temporarily failed."
The so-called special reason is really an accident.
Charlotte ran out and needed Kailin's leadership, and the way Kailin came out was through a special relationship. Today, it happened that her "relationship" was on holiday, which made her temporarily useless.
And Charlotte didn't want to let Lynn's plan fail because of her own reasons, so after careful consideration, she decided to pull Corinna out.
"Sorry, Sister Corinna, I took advantage of you."
Charlotte's voice was full of apology, and she felt very guilty about using Corinna as an "excuse" to pass.
And what about Corinna?
She was helpless.
She had been thinking for a long time that she didn't want the relationship between her and Charlotte to be mixed with an obvious exchange of interests in this matter, but it turned out to be good now, and she jumped in on her own initiative.
Now, even if I want to wash it, I can't wash it.
"Really, once I have him in my affairs, forget it. I will look at the future problems later. If I don't solve the matter now, I will have no future."
Silently put a ten thousand curse on a certain guy in her heart, Corinna was about to speak when she suddenly thought of a question.
Charlotte's travel plan has changed, so their original plan may not be carried out as expected.
In their previous plan, Charlotte came to the jewelry store quietly, and then Lynn would appear behind the scenes and give her a piece of jewelry.
After that, the clerks will "inadvertently" overhear the conversation between the "boss" and the "princess".
They will know that the mysterious girl who came to the store is a very hot little princess in the recent gossip news, and they will also know that she took a piece of jewelry from here, and they will also know that there is another piece of jewelry on top of that piece of jewelry. There was a better quality one, but she didn't want it because they were friends and shouldn't accept such a precious gift.
Next, the news of this mysterious jewelry that "even the princess thinks it is of excellent quality" will spread in the streets and alleys of Catalena.
Over time, it will be rumored to be endowed with ancient legends, mysterious backgrounds, and sinister origins.
When the rumors ferment to a certain level, this "mysterious jewel" will appear at a certain "charity auction" held by a businessman at an appropriate time, and all the money obtained from the auction will be handed over to the A charity to support a specific group of people - in the name of a little princess.
Corinna originally thought that this plan was perfect, because no matter if it was a nobleman or a businessman, someone would definitely pay for this "title".
After all, if you spend a sum of money, you may enter the little princess's understanding, but it is very worth investing in.
But now, Charlotte's high-profile appearance disrupted the pace of the plan from the very beginning, and the "boss" who appeared was forced to change from Lynn to her.
This is how to do ah
Corinna subconsciously looked around anxiously, trying to find Lynn's shadow to settle the current predicament.
But unfortunately, she didn't find anyone.
"Asshole, you disappeared when I wanted you, what an asshole."
Corinna insulted Lynn fiercely in her heart, and Charlotte was a little puzzled by her motionless appearance.
She mistakenly thought that the other party was a little nervous and didn't know what to do next. After a moment of hesitation, she said curiously.
"Sister Corinna, I'm looking forward to the 'surprise gift' you mentioned."
"Expect, yes, expect"
Corinna laughed like she was crying.
Bastard **** bastard what now?
"Hoo, hoo—"
Taking a deep breath, Corinna said in her heart not to be nervous, not to panic, even if he is not around, she can solve the problem by herself.
-Wait a moment.
Corinna suddenly realized, since when did she become so dependent on a certain person?
When she was in the academy, no matter what she said, she was the leader who managed a small team, and she was always the one who made the decisions.
When did I become unable to walk or even cry without someone else to arrange a plan for her?
"I am like this, no wonder I get teased, no wonder I get teased."
Corinna suddenly laughed at herself, took another deep breath, and stopped her reflection at the inappropriate time.
"We are collaborators. I can't put everything on him. I must also have the ability to adapt."
Thinking like this, she silently clenched her fists tightly, and quickly released them, pulling Charlotte towards the VIP room.
"Let's go in first."
"Okay." Charlotte agreed with a smile.
During this short journey, perhaps in order not to fill the atmosphere with silence, she took the initiative to find a topic.
"They are still distributing candy. I saw it yesterday, but I didn't expect it to be here today. Whose wedding is it? It's so pompous."
"Wedding, it's the daughter of Tallinkos."
Corinna didn't finish speaking, and suddenly lost her voice.
Wedding, Tallinkos.
In Corinna's reactivated brain, suddenly there was a flash of inspiration.
"I know how to adjust the plan."
She raised her head, and once again showed the confident smile she had when she stood on the podium and read the acceptance speech to countless people after she won the first place in the freshman challenge in the college.
