Chapter 24 Cecilia's Advice (I)
Alexandrine cried for a long time before she stopped. Her tears soaked Lin Shangzhou's clothes. Then she realized that she was being held in Lin Shangzhou's arms. She quickly looked up and left his arms.
"Alexandrine, are you feeling okay?"
Lin Shangzhou looked at Alexandrine, whose eyes were red from crying, and asked with concern.
"It's okay... I'm sorry for making you worry."
She nodded and apologized to several people.
"I should be the one to apologize. If I hadn't hit Klein impulsively, he wouldn't have shot me."
Lin Shangzhou said self-reproachfully that he was indeed impulsive. If he had not been impulsive, what happened now would not have happened. He also thanked Alexandrine with deep apologies.
"Thank you for saving me, too. If you hadn't pushed me down in time, I would have been sent back to the underworld by Satan."
"Don't blame yourself too much. I'm fine, right?"
The German Emperor said to him while touching the top of his head, thinking: This is where the bullet just flew past, right?
In order to ease the current atmosphere, Noah patted Lin Shangzhou on the shoulder and pointed at Klein who was being beaten by Cecilia and said:
"Fritts, I think Klein's current appearance makes you feel more relieved."
"What…"
Lin Shangzhou and the others turned their heads and saw Klein, whose face was bruised and swollen, even worse than his own that day. That time when he was beaten by Weilun, his face was only slightly swollen, but now Klein was completely beaten into a pig's head.
What made him laugh even more was that Klein didn't resist at all. He was completely willing to be beaten, like a sandbag.
"This big bad guy deserves it! Lululu!"
Roel stuck out her tongue at Klein, then helped Alexandrine stand up.
"Leah, okay, it's time to stop. If you don't stop, he will be beaten to death by you."
Alexandrine shouted to Cecilia that she had no sympathy for Klein and only reminded Cecilia for future consideration.
Hearing her sister's voice, Cecilia immediately stopped what she was doing and turned to look at Alexandrine who was supported by Laure. Although she had completely recovered from the shock, her body had not fully recovered and her legs were still trembling. Cecilia saw her sister's trembling legs, so she punched Klein again.
She stood up and ran to Alexandrine to check her body up and down. After confirming that there was no injury, Cecilia felt relieved.
"Cecilia, how are you going to explain to the Prime Minister that you beat him so badly?"
Lin Shangzhou asked as he looked at Klein, who was lying on the ground like a dead pig. If his chest hadn't been still rising and falling, people would have thought he was dead.
"You don't have to worry about that."
Cecilia chuckled and shouted to Klein, "Klein, do you know how to explain this to your uncle?"
Klein trembled as he climbed up from the ground. After he failed to stand up, he sat on the ground and said to Cecilia with a pig-like face, "Know...know, I challenged you to a duel, and if I lost...I was beaten up."
"See, he knows what to say."
Then Lin Shangzhou thought of another question, what about the prime minister's secret maid? Didn't their information go directly to the prime minister?
So he leaned close to Cecilia's ear and whispered, "I heard from Elena before that there are spies planted by the prime minister in Wuyou Palace. What should they do?"
Hearing Lin Shangzhou mention this, Cecilia smiled and said to him:
"You don't have to worry about that. I fired them a long time ago for various reasons. The remaining ones are Mr. Papen's people, but Elena doesn't know about it."
"That's it, I understand."
Lin Shangzhou also felt much more relaxed. He always felt like he had heard of Papen somewhere before... After a few seconds, he thought of the result: Wasn't Papen the chancellor at the beginning of the 36th year of the German Empire in the game?
(Papen was the chancellor in 36, this year is 30, the general election was in 37, and 5 years ago is 32, so Papen defeated the current chancellor in 32... No, no, the world line has changed, and German politics is definitely different from the game... Let's focus on the present first)
After thinking about the relevant things in his mind, he looked at Klein who stood up. The other party was looking at him with resentment. Klein said to Cecilia: "Lady Cecilia, I will take my leave first. I will handle the relevant matters. I will not let anyone know what just happened about the yellow monkey. You and His Majesty can rest assured."
"As for my request, the monkey also agreed. I hope that next time I come to the Palace of Worship, I won't see any livestock."
After saying that, Klein turned around and limped towards the gate of Wuyou Palace.
Alexandrine was originally very angry at Klein's insult to Lin Shangzhou, but when she saw his funny limping appearance, she burst out laughing. The three maids at the side were trying to hold back their laughter. After all, they were just maids, and if they really laughed at Klein they might get into trouble.
Lin Shangzhou didn't mean to laugh. He saw Klein's eyes clearly. He knew he would definitely target him in the future. He should think about what to do next.
Looking in the direction Klein was walking, Lin Shangzhou saw the gate of Wuyou Palace and the guards outside the gate looking inside curiously.
After seeing the guards, he suddenly thought of something. When gunshots were heard twice, why didn't the guards rush in to check what happened?
He asked Cecilia doubtfully:
"Cecilia, those four guards..."
"You are wondering why they didn't come in after hearing the gunshots, right? Because they are very self-aware. The people who entered the Worry-Free Palace once after the gunshots were Klein and the newcomers of the Storm Commando, and this time it was Klein. Even if they came in, it would be useless. They can only watch the show there. Besides, these four guards are just decorations. At least you have to let others know that the emperor has someone to protect him, right?"
"Fine…"
Cecilia explained to Lin Shangzhou, which made Lin Shangzhou speechless. In this case, it would be better not to let them stand guard.
Lin Shangzhou didn't know whether he should envy these four guards or sympathize with them. The job of these four guards was easy, they just had to stand there every day to get paid. It was also not easy, they had to stand there all day, and except for a short meal time (which was brought to them by the maid), they had no rest time. They were on guard at least at 8 o'clock in the morning, and the time for changing shifts in the evening should be after 8 o'clock, because Lin Shangzhou left Wuyou Palace at the latest at o'clock, and at that time he saw these four guards still standing guard there.
"Even if this matter ends today, this is the best outcome..."
Cecilia took a step forward and turned to speak to everyone, then looked at Lin Shangzhou apologetically and said:
"I'm sorry, Fritz, that I have to fire you for the best."
"It's okay, it's okay. At least I was just fired. That's good enough. Don't blame yourself too much."
Lin Shangzhou waved his hands. In his opinion, this result couldn't be better.
Alexandrine looked up at Lin Shangzhou and wanted to say something to him, but before she could finish her words, Cecilia said to Lin Shangzhou: "Fritts, come with me, I have something to talk to you about."
"Ah."
Lin Shangzhou nodded, but Cecilia's next sentence sounded a little wrong to him.
"As for the farewell words, you can tell him after I finish talking to Fritz."
Farewell words? Am I leaving Berlin?
He was a little confused, but after thinking about it carefully, he realized that leaving Berlin would be good for him. Just based on the resentful look in Klein's eyes when he left, he should leave Berlin.
(Cecilia came to me to discuss this matter...)
Then he followed Cecilia to the pavilion in the garden.
Noah and Alexandrine looked at Lin Shangzhou's back, their eyes full of reluctance, as if he would leave right now.
However, their feelings are slightly different.

Chapter 25 Cecilia's Advice (Part )
Lin Shangzhou followed Cecilia to the pavilion in the garden. They sat on the stone bench and looked at each other. After a few seconds, Cecilia said, "Fritts, I suggest you leave Berlin for a while."
Because he had this guess, Lin Shangzhou didn't seem too surprised when he heard Cecilia say this.
"You're saying this because Klein will take revenge on me, right?"
Cecilia nodded.
"Well, Klein is a man who holds grudges. What's more, you are a yellow person whom he despises. I believe you can see his hatred for you. Now you can only guarantee your safety by leaving Berlin."
"But where can I go if I leave Berlin? My home and my only family are in Berlin. Where can I go if I leave here?"
Lin Shangzhou said with a bitter look on his face.
"this…"
Cecilia was speechless. She ignored this matter. Lin Shangzhou had nowhere to go after leaving Berlin, and she had to provide him with a place to go, so she fell into deep thought.
Seeing Cecilia lost in thought, Lin Shangzhou said to her, "
"Of course I'm not saying I don't plan to leave. Although you can protect me in Berlin, that bastard Klein will also take the initiative to cause trouble. I just complained. Don't take it to heart. I will find a good place to go."
"After all, if I hadn't acted impulsively, I wouldn't have had to leave Berlin."
He felt guilty. If he had just been patient, why did he have to hit that guy? Now, Klein had completely hated him and he had to leave Berlin.
Lin Shangzhou felt guilty, and so did Cecilia. She knew why Klein was so determined to hold on to Lin Shangzhou. It was because she had shot Wei Lun without showing him any mercy. Klein had no way to target herself and her sister, so he chose Lin Shangzhou as his target to disgust herself and her sister. If she hadn't killed Wei Lun, Klein wouldn't have targeted Lin Shangzhou like that.
She wanted to arrange a safe and good place for Lin Shangzhou. She thought it was her duty.
As she thought about it, Cecilia thought of a good place. She looked up and said to Lin Shangzhou:
"Fritts, I suggest you go to Strasbourg."
"Strasbourg? Where is this place?"
Lin Shangzhou asked while he was thinking about the name in his mind, Strasbourg...where is it?
"It is in Alsace, the capital of Alsace, which was previously a direct territory of the empire, but later became a state not much different from other places thanks to the efforts of the Social Democratic Party."
Cecilia explained for Lin Shangzhou.
"In Alsace? I'll go home and tell my uncle about this and then take the train there."
Lin Shangzhou nodded. He became familiar with Alsace as soon as it was mentioned. Alsace-Lorraine was the source of the conflict between Germany and France in the KR world. In mid-1939, the French Commune had to select the national focus "Demand Alsace-Lorraine". After the national focus was completed, the Commune government would issue an ultimatum, which the German Emperor would definitely not agree to, and then World War II would begin.
"Can you tell me why you suggest that I go to Strasbourg?"
Although he was very sure that Cecilia would not harm him, he still wanted to find out why she suggested that he go to Strasbourg.
"I have a friend who lives in Strasbourg. His name is Wolfgang. He used to be a member of the commando team, but he retired due to injury two years ago. He runs an apartment and a bar there. I will write a letter to tell him what happened and ask him to make room for you in his apartment. He is a very nice person and you can live with him."
"And Klein hates the SPD as much as he hates you. He thinks Alsace-Lorraine is the stronghold of German syndicalists. He won't make himself unhappy by going there for you, so your safety can be guaranteed there."
Cecilia said.
"Is that so? Thank you so much then."
Lin Shangzhou sincerely thanked Cecilia. Now he didn't have to worry about his life after leaving Berlin.
"You're welcome, I should do it."
Cecilia smiled and waved her hand gently.
Then Lin Shangzhou thought of something. What if Wolfgang's apartment was full of people? Thinking of this, he said to Cecilia:
"What if Wolfgang's apartment is full? I can't ask him to evict the tenants for me, can I?"
"if not?"
Cecilia said without hesitation. Lin Shangzhou was stunned. Didn’t she care about the other residents of the apartment at all?
"I will emphasize in the letter how important you are to me and my sister. If his apartment is full, he will definitely evict one of the residents and let you move in after reading the letter."
"I know it's wrong to do this, but I care about you more than those residents, and I don't want you to worry about where to live in Strasbourg."
(ah…)
Cecilia's words made Lin Shangzhou's face turn slightly red. The sentence "I care about you more" touched Lin Shangzhou but also made him embarrassed. In other words, Cecilia's words touched him.
He was flirted with by a 13-year-old girl...
"Thank you... thank you..."
Lin Shangzhou said with some stammering, but Cecilia didn't realize that her words had offended Lin Shangzhou, and she remained in the same expression.
"Then your leaving Berlin has been successfully resolved. The next step is to see when you leave."
"Ah."
Lin Shangzhou nodded as he returned to normal, and then said with some sadness: "I don't know if I can come back..."
Facing the sad Lin Shangzhou, Cecilia felt sad and said to him, "I'm sorry."
Hearing Cecilia's "I'm sorry", Lin Shangzhou didn't understand why she was apologizing.
"Cecilia, why are you apologizing? It's not you who prevented me from returning to Berlin or going home. Why are you apologizing?"
Cecilia did not answer Lin Shangzhou immediately, but Lin Shangzhou's words were not a question, but a way to comfort Cecilia. He did not intend to let Cecilia answer him.
