As soon as she saw these words, Grace's slightly different mind immediately sank and disappeared without a trace.

Avro is indeed an idiot!

As for the suspicious □□□ and the [发○] sign that was always highlighted, this made Grace a little unsure.

It was obviously a ○, but there was nothing strange about it at all.

Grace's temporary approach is to leave it alone for a while and let her go.

Avro can do whatever he wants.

As for emotions, no one can escape completely. The wall of Grace's heart can only allow her to make such a choice.

……

The eighth day after the injury.

Steady horses' hooves drove all the way from the spacious avenue of the Royal Palace to the streets of Suko District, where there are many wealthy people.

Grace sat quietly in the spacious carriage, holding a golden umbrella crutch in her right hand. The dragon head of the crutch was inlaid with precious red gems.

When the umbrella tip touches the ground lightly and Cati, wearing lace gloves, gently holds the crutch, there is an indescribable elegance and dignity.

Of course, this is not a decoration, but the ankle is restored in order to reduce the pressure on the foot.

Grace's task today is to investigate the Suco District casino issue at Victoria's request.

The very existence of casinos is illegal profit-making.

What Grace needs to do is to see if these casinos meet the empire's business requirements, and then check whether there are any tax arrears.

"Her Royal Highness Grace, Her Royal Highness Victoria's request is - I hope you can find out the clues about Keda Casino."

Caroline pushed up her glasses gently, and her smart blue eyes seemed to contain countless secrets under the sunlight.

"handle?"

Grace actually wants to find the weakness of Secretary Caroline so that she can obtain a sharp blade that can stab Victoria.

Caroline nodded and patiently reminded, "Well, yes, it would be best to have a reason to shut down the Koda Casino for a month, such as tax evasion, fighting, or hiding a large amount of magic crystals."

Casinos are a cash cow for the upper class.

If you are not careful, you will be killed if you are not careful.

Should I say it or not, Victoria's heart is really vicious.

But... if you want to gain Victoria's trust, how can you not offer her a little bit of poisonous loyalty?

Grace's eyebrows raised slightly, but she still pretended to be humble and said softly:

"I know, Miss Caroline, I'll take care of you when the time comes."

"It doesn't matter, Your Highness Grace, this is what I should do."

Caroline said and made a new suggestion, "However, if you go in as Her Royal Highness, you may not find anything. Therefore, I recommend that you go in disguised."

……

With Caroline's support, Grace stepped on the crossbar and carefully jumped out of the carriage.

Click, the small crutch gently tapped on the stone slab, and Grace felt the joy of freedom.

My ankle has just recovered and I can't do strenuous running. There is still no big problem in simply walking.

So...time to check out the casino?

Expensive and elegant, this is the only feeling Grace has.

The exterior is made of fine marble, and the traditional Rhine-style door is carved with complex patterns.

In the three-meter-high open door, the dazzling prosperity comes with the light.

A fresh and elegant fragrance spreads in the air, and the expensive red carpet extends to the corridor at the end of the lobby.

The waiters in tuxedos moved around like fishes, and the beautiful women in formal dresses walked around with goose down folding fans, fluttering away the luxurious life like a movie.

Grace entered the casino with a delicate crutch like an ordinary visitor.

Ta, tap, before she even took two steps, a front desk waiter in a tuxedo stopped Grace.

"Dear lady, is this your first time here?"

Grace looked back at Caroline who was following behind.

"Yes." - She answered first for herself.

"I understand. In the front hall, if you are our member, you will be given a [-]% discount on all purchases.

If you need to enter the infield, you need to mortgage ten gold coins to enter.Ask your maid to come with me to the front desk to redeem. "

Some handsome male waiters who have received professional training carefully looked at Grace's clothes and said as if pouring beans,

"You only need to hold a fixed number and you can go in and gamble."

Grace tapped the floor lightly with the tip of her umbrella, "Caroline, go and exchange chips with him."

"Yes, ma'am."

Caroline nodded and agreed expressionlessly.

Leave these complicated procedures to Caroline. All Grace needs to do is go in and see if there is anything fishy in the casino.

Auditing requires a surprise, doesn't it?

Therefore, after receiving a beautiful woven bracelet with a number plate, Grace entered the interior of the Koda Casino.

Blackjack, baccarat, roulette, all kinds of gambling methods are dizzying.

Unlike the noisy and crowded casinos, this place is more elegant.There was an expensive piano placed in the center of the hall, and a pianist wearing a bare-backed red dress played. The gentle music slowly filled the hall with a touch of fragrance.

All the dealers are handsome and handsome, and even the women wear gorgeous and close-fitting long skirts.

Every gambler who comes here is either holding a glass of wine or clutching chips. Even if they behave politely, they can't hide the desire and madness for money in their eyes.

It fits my stereotype of casinos very well.

Grace stopped in front of the door and looked down at everything in front of her. .

She was followed by two attendants in tuxedos for protection.

For some reason, Grace had a vague expectation in her heart, always feeling that something special might happen.

Grace clutched her crutches tightly and walked slowly up the steps toward the gaming field filled with money and corruption.

One step, two steps, the heels stepped on the cashmere red carpet.

Suddenly, the pointer of fate swung, and a thin figure passed by his eyes.

The slightly fluffy mink clothes are a bit old, and the long chestnut-colored hair is gently swaying in the air with a pleasant fragrance.

It felt so familiar... Grace couldn't help but squint her eyes.

She looked up along the mink clothes. Her dark blue eyes were as bright as a starry night, and her delicate facial features were still like a stiff doll, emotionless.

The girl's silky long maroon hair brushed her chin, Grace's pupils widened, she quickly took Nola's arm and shouted to the girl,

"Nora!"

"Um……"

Nora finally realized something. She raised her head and looked at Grace unprepared.

The girl's pupils collapsed in an instant as if the sky was falling apart.

"..."

But with only a moment of panic, Nora nimbly pulled off Grace’s slender arm.

Astonishing speed and power burst out from his legs, like a nimble and powerful wild cat, he quickly stepped onto the steps in two leaps, ready to escape like last time.

With the breeze of the girl's escape still lingering on her fingertips, Grace turned around neatly and gave orders to the guards resolutely,

"You guys! Go catch that girl just now, the sooner the better!"

Thinking that Nora could also use illusions to control people's bodies, Grace ordered seriously,

"Remember that when you catch her, tie her hands and feet and blindfold her eyes so that she cannot move."

For a weak girl, as long as she does not master powerful intermediate magic, the rigorously trained royal guards can capture her with almost no effort.

The casino will provide each senior member who enters the venue with a comfortable private room for rest.

So, Grace chose to take the elevator and go to the bedroom private room on the fourth floor to quietly sip tea while waiting for news from the attendants.

Nora was caught quickly.

The whole process took less than 15 minutes, and there was a loud noise outside the door.

Caroline opened the door to the room.

"Your Highness, the person you want has been captured."

Then Miss Nora, who played a cat-and-mouse hiding game with him, finally appeared in front of him.

Her eyes, like the sky and the ocean, were covered by thin black gauze, showing off her reddish lips and smooth jawline.

In addition, Nora herself has no expression, which somehow makes people want to bully her.

Her beautiful hands were formed into fists, tightly bound by a thick hemp rope several times. They were slightly red, and she was taking reluctant little steps towards her.

"You guys go out first and I'll talk to her alone."

"Yes."

Grace drove away the attendants with words, and she and Nora were the only two people left in the spacious box.

However, when she was speaking, Grace noticed that Nora’s shoulders seemed to be shaking nervously.

Grace sat at the tea table and couldn't help but chuckle.

She turned the crutch that was leaning on the table, hooked the girl's bound hands with the barb of the crutch, and slowly dragged her in front of her.

Nora spoke little. The corners of her mouth were drooped like a dull piece of rotten wood. She was very much like the unyielding woman in the TV series who looked down upon death. She tilted her head and pursed her lips firmly.

It was as if he was sticking to his own bottom line and couldn't say a single word.

Still as taciturn as before.

Grace raised her eyebrows subtly and stood up. She picked up a velvet folding fan that came with the casino from the table and raised the girl's pointed chin slightly frivolously.

"See you again, Nora Frances, my maid?"

The crisp voice was still cold, maybe because Grace was in a good mood, so there was a sense of pride that was almost overflowing.

----------

I went to the hospital to take a X-ray and a full-body checkup late at night. I found that there were no major problems. I was told that I needed to have a good rest, get enough sleep, and not stay up late.

But it cost more than 1000, so I will update it vigorously in the future to earn back the rice.

Please be my wealth cloth (serious).

All future updates will be updated before twelve o'clock, please follow the doctor's advice!

I hope all book friends will also pay attention to your health! !

102. Death of Grace

The Adam's apple on Nola's neck moved up and down slightly, and the veins were particularly obvious because she was a little thin.

"Um……"

She didn't answer, just let out a muffled groan, and the muscles in her cheeks tensed up, as if she was enduring something.

Grace only thought Nora was nervous.

After all, she stole her jade earrings openly and jumped down from the fourth floor like a bird.

As if she was deliberately reading a fairy tale in a low voice before going to bed, Grace continued to slow down her voice.

"Miss Nora, I remember that you... took the initiative to become a maid."

"Do you know the consequences of stealing from a member of the royal family?"

Torture also requires skills, just like the calm before the storm. The softer the words, the more people will think about it.
