It was still the same familiar street.
It was still the same familiar people.
The only difference was that around the streets, there were pairs of eyes in the corners. Some were alert, some were scrutinizing, and some were casually observing the surroundings, observing the people coming and going.
And the ultimate goal of these gazes was the man and woman strolling on the street, observing how the people around them spent the day.
"Uffi. Come, here. "
Ray Mingkai's gaze seemed to inadvertently glance at the bakery on the right, then took two ice creams and returned to Euphemia's side.
"This, this is ice cream."
Euphemia saw the ice cream in Ray Mingkai's hand and said with some surprise.
"Hmm? You haven't eaten it before? "
Ray Mingkai blinked, a little surprised by Euphemia's surprise.
"Well, I've eaten one. But my etiquette teacher doesn't allow me to eat ice cream often, saying that it will affect my posture. " After Euphemia thanked him, she reached out and took the ice cream. She carefully tasted it, and a sweet happiness appeared on her face.
Seeing Euphemia, who had always been dignified and elegant, reveal an expression like an ordinary girl, Ray Mingkai couldn't help but smile.
Indeed.
Frequent and large amounts of ice cream would indeed lead to tooth decay and obesity.
In order to ensure the dignity and elegance of the princesses, it was natural for the court etiquette teacher to make such a request.
But today, let Euphemia temporarily get rid of her identity as a princess and experience an ordinary girl's day!
"Hmm? K, you're not eating? "Noticing that Ray Mingkai seemed to be distracted, Euphemia softly called out.
"Ah? Oh. I'm just thinking about something. Nothing! Uffi, "Ray Mingkai shook his head, smiled at Euphemia, and asked," By the way? Where do you want to go today? If it's outside the concession, there's nothing I can do. "
Euphemia nodded.
"Well, I know. Because of the last incident, I can't leave the concession for the time being. So, I want to go to the factory today to take a look. "
"Factory?" Ray Mingkai frowned. He thought about it and finally agreed with Euphemia's idea.
After all, compared to the dilapidated city outside the concession, the factory area was still much safer, even with a large number of Britanians coming in and out to work.
After making the decision, Lei Mingkai didn't waste any more time. After secretly notifying the members of Department Q who were guarding the surroundings, he walked toward the factory area with Euphemia.
At this moment.
It was lunch break. The workers working in the factory area were reminded by the lunch break bell. They walked out of the factory in groups and rushed to the nearby cafeteria.
The sight of the sea of people surprised Euphemia, who had never seen such a scene before.
“K！ So many people! Are they all workers? "
Ray Mingkai looked around and found that the agents of Department Q were already in position. After looking around vigilantly, he nodded.
"Yes. This factory area is mainly responsible for the production of light textile industrial products, so the recruits are mainly Britanians. "
As Ray Mingkai said, he took Euphemia's small hand and led her to a quieter observation deck to avoid being hit by more and more people.
"Let's do it here! Uffi. There are more and more people below. "
Euphemia didn't say anything. She just looked at Ray Mingkai's hand. Ray Mingkai was still holding her small hand.
When he saw Euphemia's gaze, Ray Mingkai was stunned for a moment. Then he quickly let go of Euphemia's small hand and laughed.
"Sorry! I forgot. "
But Euphemia didn't care about it. Instead, she showed a gentle smile.
"No. Don't worry. This is the first time I've experienced this feeling! K。”
That gentle smile made Ray Mingkai absent-minded for a moment. It was as if some indescribable feelings were about to surge out of his chest.
But in the next moment, Ray Mingkai suppressed the surge with his willpower and calmly nodded.
Moreover, in this delicate moment, a movement inadvertently saved Ray Mingkai.
"That is? What's going on? "
Euphemia's doubtful gaze went past Ray Mingkai and fell on the circle of people not far away.
"It seems like they're fighting?"
When Silver Mask turned to face the crowd, Lei Mingkai also heard the curses that Breeze brought to his ears.
"Not good! We … "Euphemia had just blurted out these words when she suddenly stopped speaking. Because she finally remembered her identity, and it wasn't suitable for her to rashly step forward.
But Ray Mingkai had another way.
He secretly gestured to the agents of Department Q who were watching over here. The agents nodded and turned to leave. Using the authority of Department Q, the police in charge of the security of the factory area were dispatched.
Sure enough, in less than three minutes, three Glasgow helicopters painted in the style of the police rushed out from the other side of the factory with nearly a hundred armed police armed with explosion-proof equipment.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
The moment several large tear gas bombs shot out by the Glasgow helicopters landed in the crowd, the unbearable pungent gas was immediately released and quickly drowned the entire crowd.
Then, armed with explosion-proof shields and batons, the police rushed into the smoke like a gust of wind. After dispersing or knocking down the crowd, they were dragged away by their teammates.
Soon, the crowd of onlookers was dispersed, and the troublemakers were caught by the police. They were dragged out of the range of the tear gas and thrown to the other side of the street.
"Do you want to go up and take a look? Uffi. " When Lei Mingkai saw the agent who had just left to inform the police return, he gestured to him that someone wanted to see him. Or rather, he wanted to see the big shot who could make Department Q, who was at the peak of their power, personally come.
After thinking for a while, Ray Mingkai still shook his head.
The answer was inevitable.
As long as the person in charge here knew Euphemia's identity, then Euphemia's rare good mood would be shattered.
Therefore, the agents of Department Q once again used their authority to burn the bridge after crossing the river.
Ray Mingkai couldn't help but find it funny when he saw the reluctance in the eyes of the person in charge when he left.
After the agents confirmed that there was no one around to spy on the situation, the troublemakers were brought to Ray Mingkai and Euphemia.
"This!! How could you do this!! Old man, are you okay? " Euphemia could not help but shout angrily when she saw the old man covered in dust, with a head full of white hair and bruises all over his face being supported by the agents.
With Euphemia's gentle temperament, it was rare for her to explode in anger. This also proved how vicious the other group of brawny men who were forced to the ground by the agents were.
"What happened?" Ray Mingkai looked at the injuries on the old man's body and turned to ask his subordinates.
"Sir. The cause of the incident should be because the old man wanted to get his son's salary back. "
"Salary back?" Ray Mingkai paused for a moment.
He didn't expect to witness a salary back in person, and it was an old man who was asking for his salary back.
But seeing that the old man didn't respond to Euphemia's question, Ray Mingkai knew that he wouldn't be able to get the details out of him. Therefore, Ray Mingkai set his eyes on the brawny men.
In order to save time, Ray Mingkai signaled his subordinates with his eyes.
His subordinates nodded in understanding and silently pulled the brawny men into the small forest not far away.
A few minutes later, the subordinates walked out of the forest with a hint of unhappiness on their faces.
"What a coward!" The agents all looked down on the brawny men who only knew how to bully the weak and do evil. Then, they explained the details of the incident.
It turned out that the old man's son worked in the factory here, and he was also a middle-level manager. Although it was hard work, he was able to ensure the livelihood of his family.
But he never expected that his son would inexplicably be infected with a banned drug called Refrain not long ago. Just half a month ago, his son lost all of his family's assets and also lost his job.
Now, in order to get back the last few months of his son's salary, the old man had no choice but to come forward and ask for his salary. In the end, the situation in front of them happened.
With the agent's explanation, the situation became clear.
“K。”
No matter how she called out, the old man couldn't respond. Euphemia raised her head and looked at Ray Mingkai. Her eyes were so determined and so angry. She lived in the palace since she was a child. She had always lived in luxury and was carefully taken care of by the maids. Her Royal Highness never thought that there would be such an unfair thing in the world!
"I understand! As you wish! Your Highness! "
Ray Mingkai didn't need to ask to know what the gentle third princess was thinking.
"Inform that guy. Since he wants to see the big shot, then he has to show his sincerity! "
Ray Mingkai's words were brought to the head of security who was still regretting.
In an instant, the regret on his face turned into a dilemma.
But soon, he made a choice.
Because he knew that if he dared to refuse, his position would be terminated. As long as one wasn't an idiot, one would know that in the 11th district, Department Q was in the limelight.
Standing behind Department Q was the second princess, Cornelia · LI · Brittania, who was known as the "witch".
Half an hour later, accompanied by Department Q led by Ray Mingkai, Euphemia, who appeared as the third princess and deputy governor, stood at the gate of the factory.
There, dozens of people were kneeling.
They were the people in charge of this factory. From top to bottom.
"I only have one question! Do you owe this old man's son his salary? "
Euphemia's face was cold, and she asked those people condescendingly.
"Your, Your Royal Highness. Please … please listen to my explanation! "
When the fat pig-like man who was sweating profusely at the front tried to explain, Lei Mingkai scolded him loudly.
"Shut up! What the deputy governor is asking now is not this! "
"This …"
Under Ray Mingkai's terrifying momentum, the fat pig was stiff, and his lips trembled as he nodded.
"Is that so? Then, the matter is clear! In the name of the third princess of the Britannia Empire, the deputy governor of the 11th district, Euphemia Li Brittania, I order that all factories in the area immediately conduct a financial inspection and pay back all the owed wages within a week! Otherwise, I will ban any factory that violates this order in the name of the deputy governor of the 11th district!! "
With the full support of Ray Mingkai and Department Q, the third princess, Euphemia Li Brittania, who had always been gentle, issued the first strict order since she arrived in the 11th district!!
