The old man nodded,

"Looking at you, you shouldn't have had a direct conflict with her. What do you think of Ella Williams?"

Farmine answered without hesitation.

"She's very strong, ridiculously strong...but she hasn't abandoned humanity yet. Her weaknesses are very obvious. I don't think it's impossible for me to defeat her."

"arrogant."

Philip ended the subject with a smile.

"Is there anything else worth mentioning?"

Farmine thought for a while,

"There are dirty blood species in Paris. The self-healing ability of these people is terrible. Maybe it will be better to use them as food?"

"The contamination of dirty blood species is not as simple as you think..."

The old man was silent for a moment,

"But it's worth trying, so just go ahead and do it."

"Yes, don't worry, teacher."

Farmine smiled sweetly.

Adolf strode inside Kraft. Although he rejected the principal's request to let him take over as the executor, he was still the professor of the school's combat department.

His figure has grown taller again. In contrast, his originally robust body has gained a lot of fat.Judging by Adolf's height, his current weight may have exceeded three hundred pounds.

Therefore, with every step Adolf took, the ground shook slightly.

He was only wearing a linen shirt and dark leather pants, and the middle-aged man's belly quivered from time to time under the shirt, which was one size smaller.

To Adolf, the single staircase leading to the upper floor of the castle seemed cramped and cramped.He was dragging a wooden box full of glass tubes. The one-foot-long wooden box contained at least 20 glass tubes, but it turned out to be very small in the hands of Adolf.

He squeezed through the corridor leading to the principal's office and knocked on the quaintly decorated door.Before entering, Adolf took out a strange bird-face mask and put it on his head.

"Old man, if you are not dead, open the door for me."

There's not much respect in that title.

The wooden door was automatic without wind, Kleist sat behind the long table, his face didn't look much changed, but he was a little older again.

Adolf put the wooden box on the long table, turned around and planned to leave.

"After all this time...are you still not going to take my side?"

Kleist coughed a few times unnaturally, he took out a purple-black potion, and dripped half a tube into his black tea.

"My position is the same as Yusef's."

Adolf didn't look back, just waved his hand.

"Since this is the case, there is no need for you to bring this thing to me, right? If you are half a day late, maybe I will die."

"This goes here, that goes there, they are two different things. The current situation does not allow me to let you die."

Adolf's voice was already mixed with a bit of imperceptible anger.

"It's not like you, it's like what Howard would say."

Kleist drank all the black tea in the cup, and his complexion turned a little pale. He leaned back in the chair and stopped coughing.

"Before he left this world, what should he have entrusted you with... let me think about it, should it be to protect Ella Williams or something?"

Adolf clenched his fists, and his joints squeaked.

"You're talking more and more, Kleist."

"Maybe it's because I don't have much time. When people feel that they are getting old, they will inevitably become a little nagging... I used to think that I would be an exception."

Kleist tapped the table with his fingers, and a map was spread out on the long table.

"There is something I want to tell you... Yes, most of you already know it."

"What exactly are you trying to say?"

"Ella Williams."

The name the headmaster said made Adolf's face change.

"If Howard successfully arrived in that world, counting, the girl has returned, the previous four arrival points...Let me think, maybe she is in Paris?"

Adolf froze, he turned a little bit, and for the first time since entering the room he faced Kleist.

Kleist didn't seem to notice anything, and continued:

"If this is the case, you should abide by the agreement with Howard and protect his students."

"I can better protect Ella by staying in Kraft, because as long as I'm still here for a day, you won't be able to let those old things in the executor get away with it."

Adolf simply pulled a chair and squeezed his overly wide body into it with great difficulty.

"So that's what you plan to do... Well, as long as you don't make a move, I don't plan to let those retired people come back. Hebrew is enough."

"You mean the little girl who's been famous lately?"

Adolf touched his rough chin,

"They all said she was your illegitimate daughter."

"If it's just the little girl who did it, I can ignore it... After all, Ella has grown up now."

-

Ella wakes up at the calculated time.

It's six in the morning and she's had less than three hours of sleep.

Ella was sitting on the sofa on the first floor. She had just gone out to buy a newspaper. Unexpectedly, there was no news about the murder last night in the newspaper.

The headline occupying the center is "Gangsters fight, cemetery gunshots continue." Ella probably scanned the content. The reporter maliciously imagined that the two sides in the gunfight were Baron Ottoman's reformers and civilians protecting property. No matter how gorgeous the sentence he made up the story.What is expressed is only an extension of the fact that "there was a gun battle near the Montreuil cemetery last night, and no dead bodies were found at the scene".

No dead body found?

Ella was stunned for a moment, then relieved, most likely the executor dealt with the scene after that.In any case, they will not leave a body in the cemetery with an obsidian spear impaled on the headstone.The same is true for the corpse left by the hunter. Most of the executors will perform a thorough despiritual ritual in the cemetery to prevent the pollution left by the hunter from spreading further.

According to the timetable of the "Bell" house, the maid Anna and the chef Faminie would get up 10 minutes before [-]:[-] to prepare breakfast and do some cleaning work.

Five minutes later, Ella, who was sitting on the sofa, saw An Nai appearing in the corridor, and she ran over in a panic.

"Mr. Bell, so you are awake, Victoria..."

Ella's eyes dimmed, but Annai didn't notice it because of the confusion spell.

She answered with prepared remarks:

"Victoria had already talked to me earlier. She planned to quit this job and return to the monastery in her hometown. I also agreed to her request."

"Why so suddenly... I apologize for Victoria."

It was difficult for Anna to accept for a while. They had already signed a contract with Yusuf Bell, and reasonable compensation was required to cancel the contract.

"No need to apologize. It seems that something more urgent happened. You have been working very well, so I waive the compensation she needs to pay. Sorry, you may be busy in the next few days, and I will ask you again as soon as possible." A maid and cook."

As Ella was talking, she noticed that Farmine had also come out of the corridor.

"Victoria told me about this before, but I didn't expect her to leave in such a hurry."

Famini smiled and greeted the two of them.

"Good morning, Mr. Bell, good morning, Anna... It seems that I only need to prepare food for three people today."

"The food is prepared as usual, and Fitili will probably come over."

Ella tossed the newspaper away and took a few more serious glances at Farmine.

The hints of hampering the divination remain, and Farmigne is unmistakably a wizard.But Ella didn't know why she had lied for herself, maybe she also knew about last night.

She felt a little irritated, Farminie's purpose was still unclear, and this kind of mutual testing might be more tiring than confronting Nils head-on again.

The situation changed overnight, but the day-to-day will continue.

Chapter 39 Reunited People

Overnight, the atmosphere on the streets of Paris changed slightly.The black carriage of the police station can be seen on almost every street, and the police and gendarmerie patrols wearing white berets can be seen everywhere.

It seemed to Ella that every street patrol had at least one enforcer.As she had guessed before, several police officers came to No. 30 of the Champs Elysees this morning.

At first, they simply asked a few questions and checked the identity of Mr. Yusuf Bell.According to the police officers, they counted the support of Paris residents for Mr. Baron Haussmann's renovation work.

After Ella said from the side that she knew Mr. Kate Millier, who was responsible for renovating the streets in the Saint-Germain district, the detective's expression changed obviously.He put on a little more smile on his face, and then changed the topic to the recent security issues.

Mr. Inspector specifically mentioned that the recent public security in Paris is a little worse than before, so Ella should pay attention to safety in the recent period.

"It's not that bad. At least I'm in charge of this street."

Mr. Inspector tapped his chest with his right fist.

After that, Ella only made a symbolic visit to the Paris Home Economics Association. In fact, she did not plan to hire any more servants for the time being.

Ella has also somewhat noticed her recent abnormal luck. She even felt that if she hired another maid, it would probably bring new troubles to Champs Elysees NO.30.

It won't be long before Ling and the others will return to Paris, and the vacant maids or cooks can become shadows or cover up other people's identities.

On the other hand, she does not intend to add additional expenses for the time being.

She has not refined any extra potions for the time being, because due to the current situation, the unofficial wizard gathering cycle at the Red Opera House has been extended to once a month.She couldn't find any other place where she could digest a large amount of medicine for the time being.

So Ella had a rare day or two of relaxation, doing little else than reading and the habitual meditation.

She relaxed and took a nap in the chair in the study.

I don't know when it started, this kind of rest has become a very luxurious thing for her, and it has become especially worth cherishing.

Half an hour later, the sound of footsteps back and forth in the study made Ella frowned again. After persisting for a while, she finally gave up trying to take a nap, and said angrily:

"What exactly do you want to do?"
