Bella returned to her cabin alone and stared at the suitcase in a daze. The airship would stay in the same place for a long time, so she had plenty of time to be in a daze.
Miss Olivia is a very peculiar creature.
If only we had met earlier, the first few days I spent on the ship were wasted.
It's a chance meeting, and you may never see each other again.
I feel sad and a little uncomfortable.
Otherwise, you can complete the graduation examination in Ursus.
Although there are nobles here whom she hates, there is also Olicia.
If I stay here, maybe, I can meet each other again.
As she was lost in thought, she took out her cell phone and looked through the military news of Ursus, and unexpectedly discovered that many pages mentioned the bandit problem in the empire.
If we deal with large-scale bandits, it should be able to meet the academy's actual combat command assessment requirements...
……
Ten minutes later, Bai Lang and others arrived at the exit. They saw that many people in their airship were left behind for questioning.
When it was White Wolf's turn, the staff member looked at the sword in White Wolf's left hand and asked respectfully, "Are you Lord Olicia?"
White Wolf nodded.
"Welcome back to Ursus, I wish you and your companions a safe journey."
The passage opened, and White Wolf took the curious Aina and Tianhuo out of the exit hall.
"Ahhh, Olisia, you are the key person in the case, and you came out directly. I thought we had to stay in the police station for a few days!" Ina grabbed Bailang's arm and said in surprise.
Tianhuo had an expression full of emotion: "That's right, the privileges of the Ursus nobles are indeed unique to Terra. This kind of thing is not allowed in Victoria."
"Shh, keep a low profile." White Wolf quickly reminded.
It was inconvenient for her to talk about the Marquis, so she could only admit awkwardly: "Well, this is how the Ursus nobles are."
Volume 5: Chapter 25 Things You Shouldn’t Ask About
It was exactly ten o'clock in the morning when we arrived in Checheng.
White Wolf calculated the time and figured out that he could quickly go to Azazel, get the financial assistance, and then return to the skyport, just in time to buy the tickets for the evening aircraft.
So, she only kept the taxi fare and gave all the remaining more than 1,000 Longmen coins to Tianhuo. She said generously on the surface but bitterly in her heart:
"Ms. Skyfire, I have some small matters to take care of in Che City. You and Aina should go have lunch, then find a hotel to rest for a while. We will meet at the floating port at six o'clock in the evening."
"Oh, no thanks." Just as Ina was about to refuse Bailang's money, she was interrupted by Miss Tianhuo.
Tianhuo took the money generously and said:
"Thank you very much. Miss Olicia, please be safe on your journey."
After Bai Lang left, Tian Huo turned around and taught Aina, "Emotional intelligence, emotional intelligence! Aina, from the perspective of employment, Miss Olicia is our boss. You must take care of her face, understand?"
"But I feel sorry for Miss Olivia. She is very frugal when buying things on the ship. She is only generous when buying things for us. Didn't you notice that she doesn't even drink the champagne sold on the deck?"
Tianhuo was stunned for a moment. She really didn't notice these details, but this didn't stop her from continuing to teach Aina: "That's her personal habit. You should study hard. Miss Olicia is an Ursus noble and the leader of a large company. How could she be without money?"
"Oh." Ina nodded repeatedly. After a while, she asked tentatively, "Then, let's learn from Miss Olicia and spend less to help her save some money?"
"you…"
Tianhuo took a deep breath. She didn’t know what to say. She also didn’t know whether her silly sister would be considerate enough to help Miss Olisia save some money when she paid her salary in the future.
Oh, forget it, forget it, I'm too lazy to say more. Who asked her to have such a sister? Anyway, I have enough money to support her.
Before noon, White Wolf arrived at Azazel. She happened to arrive in time for the hospital cafeteria to open, so she happily had a bowl of rice.
During dinner time, old man Helag, who had not been seen for a long time, couldn't help but ask White Wolf to talk about his recent situation.
This involves a very embarrassing matter.
She knew that both Hellagur and Carolingian had close relationships with her adoptive father, but the two men did not get along with each other. The last time they met, Hellagur had directly expressed his disdain for Carolingian's style of doing things.
There seems to be a natural gap between the upright and serious warriors and the flexible and cunning businessmen.
Not only was she helping the Marquis Caroline, she was also involved in an ice mining company suspected of smuggling. If old man Helag knew about this, he would probably get angry and kick her out...
It will definitely happen.
No, I’m so hungry, at least eat first.
So, she pretended that she didn't hear clearly, and while slurring her food, she praised the lunch incoherently, trying to get away with it.
Helag was just asking casually. He knew he couldn't influence Lillian's decision, but the other party suddenly made such a small move that made him suspicious.
"Lillian, I remember the last time you came here, you said you were going to Victoria. Are you back from there now?"
"Yeah, Victoria is a very beautiful place." White Wolf put down his bowl and said obediently.
"You didn't go there to see the scenery, did you?"
Even if I say 'yes' you won't believe it. White Wolf complained in his heart and said, "How can that be possible? In fact, I did a little work."
"Work?" Herag suddenly thought of something. "Lord Kal'tsit asked someone from Rhodes Island to bring a folder to you some time ago, saying that it will be handed over to you after you finish your work in Victoria. Is it related to your work?"
White Wolf guessed that what Dean Helag was talking about was the research materials that Miss Eyjafjalla had handled. He nodded in surprise and said, "Yes, yes, it's very important."
"That should be a research document." Herag said, looking at White Wolf in confusion. Although he didn't ask, his expression already showed 'What are you doing with the research document?'
White Wolf hesitated for a while, and had several intense psychological struggles. Finally, he lowered his head dejectedly and whispered, "There is a research institute that needs the research document. I went to Victoria to find a suitable researcher."
Hellagur was even more confused: "Is Lord Kal'tsit going to set up a research institute in Ursus again? This is not like her style."
"Ah, no, it's not Kal'tsit, it's me, it has nothing to do with Kal'tsit."
"So Rhodes Island is providing financial support behind this?"
It is better to suffer a short pain than a long one. Bai Lang did not intend to let the dean continue to guess blindly. She took a deep breath and told him everything about her cooperation with the Marquis.
After saying this, she lowered her head and stared at the food in the bowl in silence, waiting for the final judgment from old man Hellagur.
Herag was silent for a while, with no unhappy look on his face. He tapped the table twice with his index finger and asked in a calm tone, "So, you are no longer in the Reunion Movement?"
Uh, why are you asking this suddenly?
White Wolf remained puzzled in his heart, but answered honestly, "Yes, I am not in the Reunion Movement for the time being. The Marquis said that if the infected want to expand their business, they need support from other aspects, especially material support. I have thought about it seriously and feel that the Reunion Movement is indeed short of materials now."
"Very good." Herag nodded and said in a seemingly extremely objective tone, "I mean, you did a good job, and Caroline's idea is also correct."
"Didn't you say before that the Marquis Carolingian was very..."
Herag coughed and said, "Let's put things in order. Let's eat quickly and don't ask about things that you shouldn't ask about."
He felt somewhat embarrassed. What he himself could not do (referring to persuading Lillian to leave the Integration Movement), was actually accomplished quietly by that unprincipled guy Caroline. He even coaxed Lillian to go to Victoria to work. This really made him feel complicated.
The white wolf nodded obediently and held the spoon again.
She didn't want to think about it so much. Being able to sit here and eat properly was a victory.

PS: Let’s sort out the character settings and their relationships:
Bodracasti (Patriot) & General Hellagur - Old Friends
White Wolf's adoptive father & Carolingian Marquis - comrades-in-arms/friends of life and death
Helag & White Wolf's adoptive father - fellow apprentices, Yan Country's swordsmanship master? Student
During the war era when the former king of Ursus was in power, White Wolf's adoptive father and Carolingian were both the left and right arms of the Patriots.
Volume 5: Chapter 26: Short of Money
It was already past twelve o'clock after lunch. In order to save time, White Wolf did not plan to rest and went directly to the Rhodes Island communications room inside Azazel.
She had to ask Kal'tsit, who had plenty of money, for some financial assistance.
Today, the person on duty in the communications room was a film operator. Bailang had a slight impression of this person. He vaguely remembered that his name seemed to be Jisse, and he had a good relationship with Miss Rosella.
There is an embarrassing situation when you are not sure what the other person's name is, but he/she calls out your name right away.
When Operator Film saw her, he stood up with a look of surprise on his face and said nervously, "Bai, Miss Bailang, you're here."
"Well, good afternoon, Jixi~ You are on duty today." Bai Lang deliberately slowed down her speech, trying to test whether the other party's name was really Jixi. Seeing that there was nothing wrong with the other party's expression, she finally let go of her worries.
My memory is still pretty good.
"Jisi, I'm here to contact Ms. Kal'tsit to discuss some work matters."
"Okay, I'll transfer you." Jessica volunteered to operate the communicator.
She didn't think she was offended because it was normal for Miss White Wolf not to know her name. The two of them had never spoken to each other. The reason she was familiar with Miss White Wolf was because of her good friends Furong and Rosary.
Maybe she was too nervous. Jessica was so busy with her work that she forgot to correct her name. After contacting the Rhodes Island main ship, she said hello to Kal'tsit, gave her seat to White Wolf, and went outside.
Rhodes Island's mission report required confidentiality, so she had to stand outside and remind those who were not aware of the situation not to go in.
"Good afternoon, Kal'tsit, how are you doing lately?" White Wolf sat in front of the communicator, looking at the black and white Kal'tsit on the screen, and greeted happily.
When she saw the other person's serious face, she remembered the scene where she was learning Riddler on the airship, and her mood suddenly became very good.
Seeing that White Wolf was in a good mood, Kal'tsit wanted to imitate him and say something lighthearted, but she still spoke in a serious tone: "Very good, you just came back from Victoria, how is the recruitment going?"
White Wolf replied with some pride: "The progress is very good. The three people, Ceylon, Aina, and Skyfire, are all very good researchers. If Rhodes Island went to the national university to recruit this year, it would not be able to find such good people."
Kal'tsit smiled noncommittally. As for whether she believed it or not, only she knew. She then asked, "Did you get the research materials? It was in Azazel. When Eyjafjalla heard that you were going to take over the project, she spent several nights organizing her new ideas. The materials were all attached to the file bag."
"That's great. Thank Miss Eyjafjalla for me." Bailang said in surprise. She felt like she had met a great teammate who assisted her.
“Maybe you can go and thank her in person.” Kelsey’s tone became a little strange. “Eyjafjalla has always been obsessed with this project. She plans to finish the research work at hand first, and then go over to help as an individual. Let me ask you if you agree.”
Bai Lang vaguely sensed a sour taste in Kal'tsit's words, and she didn't know if it was an illusion, so she just nodded vigorously: "I agree, of course I agree."
Should I tell Miss Tianhuo this news? She is always thinking about Eyjafjalla, what would her expression be if she knew?
"Based on the current situation, Miss Eyjafjalla will be with you in a month at the earliest. Her Originium disease is quite serious. Remember to have someone remind her to take inhibitors. Also, persuade her to return to Rhodes Island as soon as possible."
"Yeah, no problem, leave it to me."
"How is your Originium disease now? Have you experienced any abnormal symptoms?" Kal'tsit asked again.
Bai Lang suddenly remembered the dizziness he had experienced recently. Was this an abnormality? Perhaps not. Every time it occurred, it coincided with his poor physical condition. It should not be related to Originium Disease.
He had been injured by Originium creatures several times, but the Originium crystals on his body were still as small as a fingernail, with no signs of getting bigger.
The most important thing is that there is no time to go to Rhodes Island for examination and recuperation.
She shook her head. "Nothing unusual. I'm fine now. By the way, Kal'tsit, I have something else to ask you this time."
"what's up?"
……
Bai Lang found that borrowing money was a good idea, but when it came to asking, it was awkward. She hesitated and said, "I'm a little tight on money lately."
Kelsey didn't hear clearly: "What are you nervous about?"
White Wolf made up his mind and quickly uttered those three words: "Borrow some money."
"Oh, sure. How much?" Kal'tsit asked indifferently.
Seeing the other party's nonchalant look, White Wolf became anxious: "I'm telling you, I will definitely pay it back, or like this, just consider it as the commission for my next mission. If Rhodes Island needs any help, I'll help you for free."
"Are you sure?" Kal'tsit suddenly asked. If all of Rhodes Island's partners were like Miss White Wolf, she wouldn't have to worry about anything.
"Of course, I'll keep my word."
"Deal, you can go directly to Jessica to get the money later, and the money will be recorded in Rhodes Island's account."
"Who is Jessica and where should I find her?" asked White Wolf.
Kelsey blinked in confusion: "Didn't she help you with the communication transfer?"
Jessica and Jisi, the two names flashed through White Wolf's mind. She vaguely realized that she had made a mistake, but it was not entirely her fault.
She was afraid that Kal'tsit would look at her as if she was a fool after she understood what was going on, so she said a few words in a hurry and hung up the phone.
