After receiving the news, the hundreds of guards patrolling the streets gathered together and carried the boxes in a line towards the prison.
"I say, you guys finally have a conscience and know how to use your strength to lift the boxes? I'm so tired just now! "
"What, you're obviously slacking off, right? I've been using a lot of strength, and now it's lighter. "
Hearing the muttering of the guards behind him, the captain's face suddenly changed, "Stop! Put the boxes down! "
The guards were startled and immediately put down the boxes.
After the captain opened the boxes, the surrounding guards were all dumbfounded.
The boxes were empty inside.
Ye Ge ran away in front of everyone!
"Damn it! When did this happen!? "
"It must be when the boxes became lighter … But when did the boxes become lighter?"
"Was it when we passed by Holy Light Street just now!?"
The captain's face was as black as ink and he shouted, "Stop arguing! Disperse immediately! She probably hasn't escaped far! Block the nearby streets! Be sure to dig her out! "
"Yes!"
The guards dispersed again and angrily set up an inescapable net. But now? Night Song, who was hated by them, was squatting on the roof opposite the flagship store of the Datang Chamber of Commerce, staring at Tang En with resentful eyes.
In the store, Tang En seemed to have noticed something. He looked up and saw Night Song on the roof opposite.
Then he laughed, "That's what a strange thief … She can escape in front of so many people."
"Hmph!"
Night Song snorted, turned around, and disappeared in an instant.
"Tsk …"
Tang En secretly shook his head. Being targeted by a thief, he was afraid that he would be in trouble.
"Sir Lord?"
"Hmm … I think we may be in trouble."
Hilton immediately reacted, "You mean … Night Song escaped again?"
"It seems that the large amount of income yesterday attracted the thief. Tell them to immediately transfer all the gold coins to my account after business hours."
Tang En muttered, "It seems that I need to strengthen the anti-theft measures of the store."
Elsa's eyes lit up and she volunteered, "My Lord, do you want me to train these people on how to catch thieves?"
Tang En was stunned. "You?"
"That's right! The reason why Ellington's security is so good and there are no thieves at all is because of me! "
"It's obvious that the thief didn't have anything to steal …"
Tang En was speechless. "When Hogg was in office, everyone was so poor. What could a thief steal?"
Elsa blushed.
…
"That bastard!"
"That idiot!"
"That idiot!"
Night Song shuttled through the gaps between the houses, cursing Tang En incessantly.
"How dare he treat a lady like this!?"
"I'm a thief who uses elegant and artistic techniques to steal my targets. How dare you say that I'm a lowly thief!"
"I'm such a beautiful girl. Although it's not my original appearance, he ignored that!"
Night Song felt very hurt, especially since she had planned to use her looks as an advantage. However, in the face of that guy, it didn't work at all.
"That guy must be a pervert!?"
"There are many perverts among the nobles!?"
"He must like men, right?"
"I thought he was good before!"
The more Ye Ge thought about it, the angrier she became. Her eyes turned red. She suddenly landed on the ground and went into a small passage. After pressing a few times on a seemingly ordinary wall, a secret door opened in the wall.
Night Song went in. Clearly, it wasn't a Thief's Guild or anything of the sort. It was just a simple passageway, nothing more.
After going through a deep and complicated maze and climbing up hundreds of stairs, Ye Ge came out from behind a wall in the basement and continued to climb up. After a while, she went into another secret passage and climbed up. After a while, Ye Ge jumped out of the secret passage.
Several maids who were busy in the room looked at Ye Ge, who was covered in dust, with their mouths agape.
Ye Ge felt embarrassed.
"Your Highness … Did you go out to play again?"
A middle-aged maid looked at Ye Ge helplessly and lovingly. Huh? Wait? Princess?
"I didn't go out to play!"
Ye Ge muttered as she took out her necklace. She pressed it gently, and a layer of distorted light appeared on her body. In the blink of an eye, the slender and petite Ye Ge with short hair turned into a tall, curvaceous beauty with bright blonde curls.
It was Aurelia.
Yes, this was Princess Aurelia's bedroom in the Palace of Irus.
The real identity of Night Song, who had been famous for more than ten years and was famous in Alinx, was Aurelia Irus, the charming Princess Aurelia.
However, this secret was only known by a few people in the Palace. His Majesty Victor had personally ordered that no one was to reveal Aurelia's secret.
An additional identity meant an additional layer of security. Even if this identity was a thief, it was precisely because of this that it was safer. After all, who would associate a thief with a princess?
With the help of the necklace, Aurelia even changed her clothes. Her black night clothes became a complicated and luxurious royal dress, and the dust on her body disappeared.
Even the old Aurelia would have a headache wearing the layers of pleated skirt. She had to wait on the maids to put it on. Since she got "Selna's Face of Mist," she didn't even need to put on clothes. The power of magic was so convenient.
"Go on with your business. I'll go find my father."
After saying that, Aurelia lifted her skirt and elegantly left the room. At this moment, her every move was completely different from before. She was no different from the usual princess that everyone admired.
She knocked on the door of the study, then nodded to Old Tom who opened the door. Aurelia walked in.
The taciturn Old Tom went out, closed the door, and guarded the door.
"Eh? My little princess, why are you back? "
Victor was very surprised. "Aren't you going to find out more about Tang En?"
Aurelia was immediately annoyed. "Father! Don't talk about it! I'm going to die from anger because of him! "
"Oh? What happened? Tell me! "
Victor's spirits were lifted. No matter what it was, as long as it was related to Tang En, he would always be alert.
Moreover, Victor knew about Ye Ge's identity. With Aurelia's means, she could still fail. Perhaps she could get a lot of information from it.
"I originally planned to deliberately show a flaw and let the guards find my tracks. I created the image that I was forced into a corner. Then, based on Ye Ge's previous behavior, I created an identity that would be the easiest to gain sympathy. Everything went smoothly at first, but he actually, actually …"
Aurelia's eyes reddened when she thought about how she was treated by Tang En.
Not only did he look at her body with that kind of gaze, but he also unscrupulously pinched her face. He even lost control of her breasts!
His actions were so presumptuous and bold. Ming Ming … Bah! Damn Ming Ming! He was definitely a lecherous man. But why would such a man ignore her charm and temptation and throw her out in a box without hesitation?
He even mocked and ridiculed her, adding insult to injury!
How was he a gentleman? He was simply a bastard!
Princess Aurelia, who originally had a very good impression of Tang En because he told her the story of the Windrunner sisters, now wished she could personally scratch a few flowers out of Tang En's face!
Victor's heart suddenly hung in the air. "What happened to him?"
Could it be …
"No, nothing!"
Aurelia felt very wronged. But she was a girl. How could she have the nerve to say such things? All her grievances could only be suppressed in her heart. She would settle the score with that bastard when she had the chance in the future!
Aurelia sorted out her emotions and briefly told Victor what happened today. Of course, she skipped the more embarrassing parts. Although Victor felt that there was a problem with his daughter's description, he didn't know what the problem was.
It couldn't be that … Tang En had raped Aurelia, right?
Suddenly thinking of this, Victor's heart thumped.
The anger in his heart began to rise.
If that was really the case, even if the other party was the son of God, wasn't it too much?
Even if he had to risk destroying this empire, he had to teach him a lesson!
Aurelia didn't know about Victor's anger and continued to narrate.
"… All in all, my plan won't work. Next, he'll definitely think that Night Song is eyeing his shop's revenue, so he'll increase his guard. If I appear in front of him with that identity again, I'll only be his enemy. I'm afraid it'll be impossible for me to infiltrate his camp again.
After saying all this in one breath, Aurelia took a deep breath and waited for her father's reply. But after waiting for a while, she didn't hear anything. She looked up and found that her father was in a daze.
"Father? Father! "
Aurelia raised her voice. "What do you think we should do next?"
"Oh!"
Victor woke up. "Next … Oh, let's not be anxious for now. Hasn't he already started to develop Ellington? More and more information will be exposed. We just need to wait. "
"Wait?"
Aurelia was very dissatisfied. "Father, we can wait, but those guys in the noble family may not."
"That's the problem. I'm afraid we can only pray that Tang En has the strength to protect himself before the aristocratic party can't sit still …"
Victor sighed. "Now, the most troublesome thing is that we can't provide any help to him. Instead, we have to pin our hopes on him."
"Damn it, that guy …"
"You go back first. Don't just play. Go to the Vatican these two days and bring some small gifts for the Holy Virgin. Maintain your friendship."
"Okay …"
After watching Aurelia leave, Victor suddenly said to Old Tom at the door, "You go and ask the Queen to come here. I have something to ask her."
Old Tom nodded and left without saying anything.
"Let Olina check … What if Olga is really at a disadvantage …"
Victor gritted his teeth. "Even if he is the son of God, he has to marry Olga grandly!"
