Your notoriety is known to everyone

Chapter 167 The so-called evil young man (4k)

Soft snowflakes fall gently on the streets, wrapping the entire city in silvery white.

"It snows a lot this year."

Luo Gesi looked down at the snowflakes in his palms, thinking of the heavy snow that had been drifting in recent days, and sighed.

At this time, he was wearing a gray cotton cloak and a top hat with feathers on his head, holding a staff and strolling down the street in a wealthy residential area.

Because he didn't want to attract too much attention, he lowered the brim of his hat so that not much of his silver hair was exposed.

Next to him, Alina was wearing a pure white hood, with a circle of down at the collar to keep warm. A few wisps of snowflakes fell quietly, dotted on the tips of her hair, and blended with her long snow-white hair. One body.

If you only look at her delicate and expressionless face, and her indifferent amber eyes, others may only think that she is a cold and aloof girl, a type that is extremely difficult to get close to.

But Rogers was very aware of the bad nature of the guy next to him, especially after Alice lived with him again recently. From time to time, Alina would open her mouth and leave some on his neck when Alice wasn't paying attention. What.

"In the southwest, when snow and rain intertwine, huge waves and whirlpools will sweep in early." Alina turned her head to look at the sky and frowned.

"At the beginning of spring, a wave disaster?" Luo Gesi looked at Alina at the same time and couldn't help but asked back.

In the original plot, the first major disaster that Alice will come into contact with is the disaster symbolized by "water" in the spring season, but that should be after the third grade.

"Many times, I don't understand. Do you know or don't know yet?" Alina looked back at Luo Gesi, and said with an inexplicable expression: "I thought you let the succubus forcibly activate the earthquake disaster. , just to deal with this matter."

Wave disasters have intangible and qualitative characteristics. If you can master the authority related to the earth element, it will be much easier to deal with it.

"It happens." Rogers shrugged slightly and didn't explain much.

If we advance the script normally, we will first gain experience by fighting various minor disasters, and then when Alice turns sixteen, she will begin to conquer major disasters one after another.

But now, due to Luo Gesi's intervention, they were just fifteen years old, and two major disasters were already showing signs.

"As for the school's affairs, after you sort out the relationship, just leave the rest to me. First, prioritize the plan to design symbols that can correspond to me."

Luo Gesi reached out to pat away some fallen snow on Alina's shoulders and said.

"I'm just providing assistance. The finalization of the symbol will ultimately come back to You." Alina raised her chin slightly, revealing her soft neck, and replied indifferently.

"Understood, I'm very grateful for your help." Rogers knew what the other party wanted to hear at this time, so he answered naturally.

The two chatted for a while and then came to the door of a magnificent mansion.

The majestic gate in front of you is made of handmade iron like the gate of the Earl's Palace, and the facade is also cast with complex patterns.

Luo Gesi stopped in front of the door and looked at the lines carefully, and more and more speculations came into his mind.

The mansion in front of him is the property of Cordell, the president of the Building Guild. This time he came to solve the Scarlo Grand Set reconstruction incident once and for all.

The reason why Alice didn't follow was because her identity as a saint was too sensitive, and she didn't know what kind of trouble it would cause if she got involved.

"Who are you two looking for? Do you have an appointment?"

One of the two lightly armored guards at the gate walked up to the two of them and asked in a gentle tone.

The guard wanted to chase people away directly, but saw that Alina's temperament was not like that of an ordinary child, so he slowed down his tone.

"Is it Cordell's request to wear armor in such a cold weather?" Rogers raised the brim of his hat, revealed his face, and looked at the guard and asked.

Generally, the guards in front of noble houses would not dress up like this, and they had carefully memorized the portraits of noble genealogies. When they saw Alina, they should have walked in to report her.

"Honor... Your lord, please be with me! Wearing armor is a requirement of the butler!" The guard was startled at first when he saw Rogers' appearance, and then he immediately leaned forward, bowed and saluted, and replied loudly.

"Open the door." Rogers did not blame the other party for his panic, but just ordered in a calm tone.

"Sir, I... have you accepted the invitation... No, can you allow me to report to Sir Cordell first?" the guard stood at attention and stammered.

"I don't want to enter his bedroom. I just want to sit in the living room and wait for him. Can't I do it? Do I have to stand outside the door and wait for his response?" Rogers rubbed his chin and said impatiently. asked.

Seeing the other party's embarrassed look and the attendants inside the door running towards the mansion in a hurry, he didn't say anything more and walked directly towards the door.

A harsh sound broke through the air. Luo Gesi raised his foot and kicked the big iron door with a force that would make ordinary people amazed. The huge impact made the door tremble.

The sound of metal clashing echoed in the air, white snow flew for a moment, and the iron door slammed to the ground.

"Why are you so straightforward this time?" Alina walked forward and asked curiously as she and Luo Gesi walked through the door.

Neither the attendants nor the guards had any intention of blocking the two men's progress. They either stood stiffly on the spot, or ran in panic to report the situation to a higher-level person.

"What else? This is not something that requires thinking at all." Rogers replied casually.

He didn't want to think about it anymore this time, nor did he plan to discuss anything with the other party, but he came to give a notice.

He also talked with his father before coming, and Earl Breed just said with regret: I wanted to make him fatter, but if you really can't help it, just do as you like.

Cordell believed that he had a place in the aristocratic society, and he had gained the status and authority that many nobles, big and small, treated him with courtesy. But in reality, nobles don't mind showing off their decent and polite side to anyone who can bring them benefits.

If Logos killed Cordel with his own hands, the lords of the Eastern Territory would probably complain privately about how reckless and rude Logos was, but that would be it. Compared to Cordel's sudden death, they might More willing to joke about how Earl Breed's education was a failure.

"Do you think that if I kill Cordell, the imperial court will be able to advance the "New Civilian Protection Act" much faster?" Rogers walked through the front garden and towards the front hall of the mansion when he suddenly felt He asked Elena curiously.

Although there was a precept in the original "Protection of the People Act" that nobles were not allowed to damage citizens' private property and health without authorization, the price for violating it was only to pay a large fine.

And compared to paying the fine, the nobles may feel that paying the fine is their punishment, because it represents damage to their honor.

In the new "Protection of the People Act", the penalty clause of imprisonment has been added, but this is also one of the biggest obstacles to the delay in the implementation of the new bill.

"If you first publicly reject the emperor's marriage request and then be tried by the new law, then you will definitely become a qualified martyr, and all the feudal nobles will feel heartfelt sorrow for you." Ellie After Na pondered for a moment, she started to add something.

"New laws cannot judge old cases. I think the empire's legal system is still too backward." Rogers slowly shook his head and said with emotion.

"You're looking too far ahead. You can't force the world to keep up with you all the time." Alina glanced sideways at Rogers and her tone was quite subtle.

"Are you praising me or mocking me?" Rogers frowned slightly and asked back.

When talking about this, the two of them quickly came to the front hall door, where a brown-haired young man wearing a black dress was standing at the door waiting.

When the other party saw Luo Gesi and Alina talking, before Alina could respond to Luo Gesi's words, he interrupted and asked with a smile: "What are you two talking about?"

"Who are you?" Rogers looked up at this guy who was about two or three years older than him and asked back.

"My name is Ferenwa, and I am the only son of the president of the Construction Guild." Ferenva returned the greeting, stroking his chest, his demeanor full of elegance and calmness.

"We were discussing whether to kill your father." Rogers replied simply and frankly.

Ferenwa stiffened when he heard this, his eyes widened, and he couldn't help but wonder if he had just heard a hallucination.

"Where's Cordel? Why are you here?" Rogers looked around and found that except for Ferenvar and the three slightly nervous attendants behind him, there was no one else.

"Father is handling official business, so he sent me to entertain the two distinguished guests. If you don't mind, please come here." Ferenwa took a deep breath, tried hard to calm down his rising anger, and extended his hand to invite them.

"Sorry to trouble you." Rogers nodded slightly and replied politely.

Ferenva was stunned again when he saw Logos's decent behavior and words. He thought that maybe the other party just mispronounced the words, or made a joke that he thought was funny but was extremely offensive.

Luo Gesi and Alina were led by Ferenva into a reception room on the side of the front hall. When Luo Gesi sat on the sofa and was about to say something, the silver ring in his pocket suddenly trembled.

"A conflict broke out at the Scarlow Fair, and many vendors were seriously injured. Alice said that if she hadn't been there, there would be a high probability that some people would not be able to survive this winter due to injuries."

He rubbed the silver ring, and after sensing the message coming from it, he spoke to Alina beside him.

"It's really not a good thing to be injured at this time." Elena commented, then stared at the ring in Rogers' hand and asked, "When did it have communication capabilities?"

"I don't know either. I didn't tell me until Alice gave it to me after the holiday." Rogers shrugged slightly, stuffed the ring back into his pocket, then looked at Ferenwa and asked, "You should also have helped your father." Are you going to handle the matter of building a guild? What do you think of this matter?"

Ferenwa chuckled lightly, spread his hands and said indifferently: "They are just a group of common people who are causing trouble. If it were not for the fact that the saint often picked goods among them, we would have driven them away long ago."

"I'm asking about your men injuring the merchant." Rogers leaned forward and emphasized again with a smile.

Ferenvar's expression looked extremely strange and confused. He originally wanted to compliment the "sage" in front of him for his wisdom, and then help his father mediate the dispute about the reconstruction of the Skaro Collection.

But he never expected that this notorious young master would actually care about civilians, but then he directly rejected this conjecture in his heart.

He felt that Rogers must be trying to make trouble over this matter, but this kind of trick was still too clumsy in his eyes.

"According to imperial regulations, we can pay them a sufficient amount of compensation, or because of your kindness, we can increase the amount several times without any problem." Ferenwa put his hands on the table and responded to Luo Gesi seemingly sincerely. question.

"We nobles will at least care a little about false glory, and they can make a naked bid." Rogers was not too surprised by Ferenvar's reply, and told Alina his thoughts and feelings. evaluate.

Alina thoughtfully recalled the many theories about capital that Rogers had told her. She looked at Ferenva carefully as if she were looking at a strange object.

Ferenvar felt extremely uncomfortable with Alina's gaze, and he couldn't figure out the meaning hidden in Rogoth's words.

“In the Bronze Age, Emperor Perseus III had formulated a legal provision that if a noble committed a murder and failed to bring him to justice, the noble family must pay a huge fine. This fine was also called Fu Zhu Jin.

"Mr. Ferenwa, how much gold do you think you are worth? How many times more expensive than those common people who are in the way?" Rogers slowly raised the cane in his hand and glanced at Ferenvar up and down, as if he was serious. Assess the other person’s value.

"My lord, this joke is not funny at all." Ferenva stiffly twitched the corners of his mouth, but when he finished shouting to the guards, a sharp pain came from his chest.

His face was distorted, and his forehead was soaked with cold sweat. The severe pain spread, making him almost unbearable. Every breath was like a needle slowly piercing his chest, making him more painful and... Puzzled.

It was at this moment that Cordell pushed the door open and walked in. It was not known whether he had just arrived late or was already standing outside the door.

He quickly ran to Ferenvar's side, waved his hand and opened the cane that was pressed against his son's chest. After observing that Ferenvar was still conscious and breathing enough, he drank a bottle of healing potion that he carried with him. He turned back and stared at Rogers, gritted his teeth and said, "Rogers Braid..."

Rogers put the cane back to his side, looked at Cordell in surprise, and said incredulously:

"I didn't expect you to know my name. Do you still remember the last name of the land you are standing on now?"
