In front of the jewel necklace convoy, the blonde girl looked at the row of Sorofia's staff and silently waited for the results of the search.
Since stopping the convoy until now, Nuo Aier had talked with Ge Leisi several times. From the maid's response, there was no doubt that Nuo Aier's actions were predicted.
Charlotte Sorofia, a young girl who was able to take care of Sorofia's business in the central area of Rosetta City since she was a child, was not only talented, but also intelligent. This incident was a good example.
This time, Charlotte had the upper hand from the very beginning. Noel and the Acate family were completely led by someone else, and there was no good way to deal with it.
From the moment they started chasing after Luo Ya, they had to focus on their journey. Nuo Aier had guessed that the jewel necklace convoy was a bait, but so what if she guessed it? Did she have the time to sweep the area with a large group of people? No, and Nuo Aier believed that once she did that, the jewel necklace convoy would definitely rush out of the border at full speed. She would not be able to catch up.
"Your Highness, we have searched everything. Luo Ya -sama is not in the convoy."
“.....”
The soldiers reported. As expected, there was no trace of the two people in the convoy. Nuo Aier was silent for a while. She could only give an order with difficulty.
"Send an order to all the garrison troops and militia groups in Akat City. From three days ago, all outsiders must be interrogated. Once suspicious people are found, they must be detained immediately! Collect clues from the nearby residents. Once there is reliable information, there will be a reward. "
After gritting his teeth and giving the order, Noel looked at the warriors of the Akat family and asked with some difficulty, "What's the matter?
"There are a few villages nearby, within a day's journey."
"Uh, within a day, there should be three."
"Well, now our team will be divided into four groups. The first three groups will spread out and search the three nearby villages. Once there is a situation, immediately send someone to contact them."
"The last group will take the Rosetta convoy and find a place to settle down. Before this matter is over, no one is allowed to leave."
Under Noel's command, the soldiers of Akat Hill moved quickly. The two captains led their men to the farthest, most remote village that was hard to find. Noel, on the other hand, went to the village that was relatively easy to reach. According to the soldiers, it was a village that was not very developed, but it had a very unique specialty wine.
Her Royal Highness and her entourage rushed to the small village before noon. The moment she looked down at the village from the top of the hill, Noelle's blue eyes narrowed. She, who was very observant, noticed something unusual.
The snow on the road leading to the village was swept too well. It was wide enough for two carriages to travel side by side. Normally, there would not be much activity in a small village like this in winter. Even if there was a hunt, there would only be a dozen people leaving on foot. After all, the snow would hinder the carriages from moving forward. The animals pulling the carriages also needed to eat, so it was better not to bring them along.
In order to save food during winter, most people would not move much except for sex at night. This was especially true for a small village like this that did not have much activity. However, such a village was able to sweep the snow on the official road so cleanly. Not only did it sweep the snow, but it was also as wide as two carriages.
There is a problem!
Miss Angel looked at the scene around the village and her heart beat faster. She did not expect that the search that was just a struggle before death would actually yield results. After discovering the problem, she decisively led her troops and rushed down. She saw an old woman trembling as she walked out of the door to get some firewood.
Nuo Aier, who discovered the villagers, did not delay. She jumped down from her horse when she was still a dozen meters away. Her wings of light flashed, and the surging curse power carried her nimble body to the front of the wooden house. The old woman was so shocked that the firewood in her hand fell to the ground.
"Old woman, don't panic. I am the commander of Akat. I want to ask you a few questions."
Looking at the trembling old woman, Nuo Aier explained helplessly. These old people in the village had never left the village in their lives. They did not know anything about angels or Heathcliff. She could only cover it up with her identity as a soldier of Akat.
Under Nuo Aier's comforting words, the old woman was still panicking. However, she seemed to have realized that the person in front of her was a noble person. Her body no longer trembled, but she was obviously stuttering when she spoke. She did not dare to raise her head. Seeing this, the princess felt helpless and could only ask the question directly.
"There should be outsiders in the village these two days, right? Old woman, can you tell me what they look like and where they are? "
Miss Angel asked in a gentle tone. Hearing this, the old woman was stunned for a moment and immediately nodded.
"Yes, yes, there are outsiders. She is a lady from a rich family. She has a big carriage. Oh, yes, there are many attendants."
The old woman said hurriedly. She gestured the size of the carriage with her hands. Obviously, she had a deep impression of it. Nuo Aier was excited and quickly asked for more details.
"You mean, the leader is a reddish-brown haired girl, and there is a black-haired boy in the team?"
"Yes, the boy is in a wheelchair. It seems that his legs are inconvenient. Oh, yes, they also bought a lot of wine!"
Hearing that Luo Aier was injured, Nuo Aier's body trembled. She was shocked and angry at the same time. She clenched her fist and tried to ask again calmly.
"I understand … Then, where did they go?"
"That way. They went from the eastern mountain road to the border. They said that they were going to see some snow. We tried to persuade them that there are more wolves there and that the western mountain road is better, but they didn't listen …"
The old woman frowned and tried to shift the blame. Obviously, she thought that Nuo Aier was one of the young nobles. Miss Angel saw this and did not explain. She immediately jumped on her horse and chased after them. As expected, she found traces of a large group of people.
At the entrance of the village, the white-haired old woman looked at Nuo Aier and the group of people who were rushing to the east. After a long time, she shook her head and walked back into the house. The moment she closed the door, her body began to twist and flicker. Her white hair disappeared and turned into reddish-brown. Her hunched body also turned into a slender waist.
