Mrs. Gerald's expression reminded Fourier of what the real Joan of Arc that Gerald was pursuing would look like if he saw Jeanne d'Arc Alter. He was looking forward to such an unfolding.
Fourier glanced at Ouch, who was in a daze and couldn't understand what Fourier and the others were talking about. The two speakers had been talking in Latin with English pronunciation, which was a dead language. The language and pronunciation have been completely lost, and to most people it is no different from the alchemist's secret language.
"Let's discuss how to kill Gerald." Mrs. Gerald said: "He is no longer useful."
Was the reason for killing him because it was useless?
Fourier chewed on this idea and felt that it was a natural thing to combine the cold financier/dark wizard and the cold witch.
It now appears that Mrs. Gerald provided a template to create a copy of another Sword Witch. The clone and the twins Kane and Osh used in the blood sacrifice ceremony were conceived by Gerald. They were later abandoned, the twins were dismantled, and the clone became He married Mrs. Foer and gave birth to Phoenix, while the main body gave birth to Ruota with Gerald. This is the intricate relationship between the two families.
Whether Mrs. Gerrard or Mrs. Foer, the two sword witches had great hatred for Toby Gerrard, so Fourier could get information from them so smoothly.
"At the end of Wednesday night and before dawn on Thursday, I will kill Toby Gerrard." Fourier said.
In Fourier's view, realizing the client's wish is equivalent to killing Toby Gerald and destroying his plan to resurrect the so-called Joan of Arc. The most difficult part to deal with the other party is to cut off Gerald. The relationship between Germany and the Shinra Group has evolved into a powerful battle against itself.
The purpose of making friends with Osh and other opponents was to use them to deal with the miscreants of the Shinra Group. The purpose of purchasing high explosives was to blow up the Shinra Building and interfere with the execution of the blood sacrifice ceremony.
He chose the venue for the decisive battle at the girls' school where Heizhen and Phoenix attended. The school anniversary program on Wednesday night ended with the finale of "Thunderstorm". When 0 o'clock passed and entered the category of Thursday, people would dance a whole Dance at night until dawn.
Toby Gerrard will definitely bring his family and bodyguards to attend. It seems to be extremely safe, but his family wants to kill him and the audience wants to kill him. These people are enough to deal with his bodyguards, cut off his escape route, and temporarily put him at risk. The girls' school became a closed space, buying Fourier time to face Gerald.
As long as Toby Gerald is killed, there will be time left to destroy the foundation of the blood sacrifice ritual and restore the safety of the city. At that time, he can also realize Jeanne d'Arc Alter's true wish.
The hidden worry behind his ideal is that he doesn't know the position of Jeanne d'Arc Alter in Gerald's plan. It's true that she is a pirated product of the Jeanne d'Arc that Gerald imagined, but what role does it play specifically? It’s also unclear, regarding her mission, she may very well be the winner of Gerald’s plan.
"How many manpower do you have at your disposal?" Mrs. Gerald glanced at Osh. "The union organization has been severely damaged, and Gerald not only has Shinra Company's private armed forces, but also the Orleans garrison at his disposal. Once you attack, , he quickly mobilized troops into the city on the grounds of suffering a terrorist attack. I don’t expect you to kill him quickly, so you need manpower to buy time.”
"Don't worry, I've been busy with this matter these days." Fourier said with a smile: "Most of the resistance forces with fighting capabilities have agreed to temporarily join forces with us."
"what?!"
Mrs. Gerald and Ruota were surprised. A foreigner who had arrived less than ten days ago actually united the resistance forces in Orleans with different demands. It sounded like a fantasy.
Osh nodded. He was initially confused about accompanying Fourier, but in the end, Fourier really convinced or threatened most of the leaders and temporarily tied them to his chariot.
After that, they coordinated the details of the night's action and planned the assassination of the king on the carnival night. After that, Mrs. Gerard and JoJo disappeared like the wind, the black space faded, Fourier and Osh Back to reality.
"Aren't you afraid that there is some fraud involved?" Osh asked in a low voice.
"It doesn't matter, if they tell the truth, we are friends, and we will chop off the king's head together; if they tell lies, and we are enemies, we will chop off their heads together.
Osh, what I do is not the job of creating a gentle world. If you insist on saying so, I have killed many more people than I have saved, and there is no guarantee that every dead person deserves what they deserve.
Even so, I still killed them without any grudges and let their lives become my stepping stones and my feed. This is our world, and everyone has their own place in the food chain.
I actually hate social Darwinists, but I have to admit that it’s actually pretty cool to use the rules of social Darwinism to get these social Darwinists into the mud.But at that time, I also became a cannibal.
You see, Nietzsche once said that when you stare into the abyss, the abyss stares back into you. "
Fourier waved his hand towards Ouch: "So don't step in, Ouch, you just need to be a good person. The gloom of Orleans will eventually dissipate, and you can share the sunshine and make everything better. "
He left without waiting for Oush to answer. Oush kept watching him leave the door. In the eyes of this big man, a strange existence that did not belong to the old era or the new era faded away.
Fourier discussed the plan in the morning, and in the afternoon he went to the girls' school where the decisive battle was scheduled, surveyed the terrain, and informed the client of his decision... Although this was the client's wish, he was not prepared to give up the initiative. .
When he came to the drama department, he saw a girl he was familiar with stepping onto the stage with the help of Phoenix. After seeing Fourier, he made a "goo" sound in his mouth, his eyes widened, and he made a backward gesture. The upward movement resembles a frightened white-faced owl.
She wore a blue costume with black edges, decorated with a lot of ribbons around it, and had a black flower on her head, which was twisted out of tulle, corresponding to the red rose on her chest.
The well-tailored clothes outline her good figure. The hem of the dress is open to the knees, and the calves are protected by black stockings. They are paired with a pair of brown round-toe boots. Heizhen glanced at Fourier's reaction and reluctantly Turning her head, she stretched out her long-gloved hand, as if to give him the honor of a kiss.
"Come on and be fascinated. Be fascinated by me, completely!"
Her expression was filled with pride, and when Fourier actually grabbed her hand and felt the body temperature coming from the gloves, the client panicked again.
"...I...I said, why are you staring at me like that? It's so disgusting. You have to have a limit to being unreasonable? I don't care. I'm being stared at by you like that." I feel uneasy like there are bugs crawling in my stomach."
After saying that, she picked up her skirt and turned around and ran away. Fourier looked at the silk gloves in his hand with both laughter and tears. They were accidentally left behind when the girl broke away, and her warmth and smell still remained on them.
As a qualified gentleman, Fourier of course put it in his trouser pocket so that when the girl had a backlash mark, she would have something to sacrifice to eliminate the backlash mark.
Chapter 21 The combination of reality and virtuality
"What's going on?" Fourier turned to look at Phoenix, "Isn't she a supporting (fighting) support (miscellaneous) role?"
"We have an actor who is not feeling well, so that's the one who came, so it's not convenient."
Fourier nodded. Neither the actors nor the audience were happy for anyone to see the bloody scene on the stage. In the concept of the old times, it meant ominousness and blasphemy. In the name of respecting tradition, the feudal dross of the past was replaced by the new. The face appeared and once again thrived in people's hearts.
"What do you think of Jeanne wearing this?"
"Very good, she has a good figure, so she wears everything like a model." Fourier added, "Of course, you are also very beautiful."
"It's just flattery, but thank you. We have limited funds, and we made most of the props ourselves. Only the leading actors who appeared more often rented clothes from the clothing store. It was Kane who quietly gave me the money..." ...Ah, please keep this a secret."
"I will, Miss Furr, will your family come, I'd like to sit with them."
"Yes, my brother said that he will come with his co-workers, and my father and his colleagues from Shinra Company will also come. As for my mother, she will probably come, I can't say."
Fourier looked at the busy people on the stage. These feminists who said no to the rules of gender inequality in education, bravely took the first step, and tried their best to really work for what they believed in, were more powerful than those in the capital. It’s much better to have all kinds of fantasy organizations in the circle where rich ladies only talk but don’t do anything.
In the face of the times, what they can do is quite limited, but they will work hard to improve people's negative views on women's education.
And what he did was to start a war with Toby Gerrard here, and was not prepared to ask their opinions... It was terrible, but someone had to stand up and end the nightmare.
Phoenix didn't know what Fourier was thinking, and sat on the chair next to her. Recently, she was very easily tired, sometimes dizzy, and sometimes had the desire to vomit. However, the amount of text for her protagonist was huge, and it was unrealistic to find someone to replace her temporarily. , after all, it is not a professional theater troupe. There is no backup or teleprompter. If one of the leading actors loses the lead, everyone's efforts will be in vain.
After Heizhen returned, Fourier added his compliments, and the tired client finally responded to the operator she had recruited in a normal manner.
After sending Phoenix home, they returned to the next door. The everyday part faded away, and the smiles or indifferent faces became serious.
"We have agreed that at the end of Wednesday we will start, and today I will inspect the site for the last time."
"Are you going to cause trouble in school?"
"Precisely because it is a school, there is no place in Gerald's mind that I can destroy, so I have to do it here. Moreover, watching the school play and participating in the all-night carnival afterwards is also the place where all those who oppose Gerald enter the school. The most legitimate excuse ever.
Your play will occupy the school's chapel, which can only accommodate a limited number of people. One more of my 'friends' means one less enemy. As long as the door is blocked, a confined space can be temporarily formed. "
Seeing the client's silence, Fourier added: "Toby Gerrard will bring disaster to the entire city. Even if it means destroying the entire girls' school, I must destroy him. Otherwise, All people will fall into Abizi and become victims of his ambition.
Besides, your wish is not really to keep the so-called girls’ school. "
"When did you discover it?" Hei Zhen asked after being silent for a while.
"From the beginning."
"I just asked a boring question," the client pretended not to care and smiled, "Then, as long as Gerald activates the imaginary number space, your grid filling trick will be impossible."
"Thanks to the young men of the Gerald family, I know that the center that controls the imaginary space is in the Shinra Building, and I have prepared a plan for this."
"He controls the ley lines of Orleans, which means he has nearly unlimited magic power."
"That's why I want to win over the resistance organization. They have been helping me plan for this. In other words, I have a plan to deprive Gerrard of his privileges."
"How to ensure that those resistance organizations will not have second-guessing, just like someone betrayed Osh?"
"The credentials I used to unite them were the things I used to threaten them. I told them that even if they are just outsiders, they must stand on the side of the winner. This is a life-and-death fight, and there is no middle ground."
"Where's the army?"
"They can't move that fast."
"Where are his followers?"
Fourier replied: "My 'friends' will deal with it."
"Where is the artificial artifact 'Electromagnetism Scepter' he carries with him?"
"You can see what is hanging from the dome in the chapel. It has nothing to do with your drama, but it has everything to do with mine."
"What about the innocent...Phoenix?"
"After your drama is over and before the orgy begins, Osh will take his family and a few innocents out."
"What about Mrs. Foer? Osh doesn't know that the Sword Witch is his mother, and she will definitely protect Kane."
"I have a final battle with her, and outside of that, there is a character you don't expect who will suppress her."
Heizhen asked a series of questions, and Fourier gave answers in an orderly and clear manner.Yes, despite the mystery, neither Fourier nor Gerald had the intention to turn it into a puzzle game, but a fight between people with strong desires and people with strong desires.
From the beginning until now, Fourier may have been acting according to Gerard's script and doing everything expected.But Fourier, the despicable stranger, the grotesque alien, was ultimately a variable, and when the chess game went against him, he smashed the board.
"You always have a plan."
The client nodded and looked directly at Fourier, her pale golden eyes filled with trust, her dry lips trembling, and even her confident and self-confident tone wavered.
"What role do I play in your plan?" Heizhen asked.
"I have put together most of the puzzle. Miss Alt, you are part of Gerrard's plan. It may not be the finished product, but you will eventually face Toby Gerrard. The origin of everything is also the end of everything.
Your role depends on your wish, Miss Alt, what is your real wish? "
At this time, there were clouds outside the window, and lightning pierced the night sky, making the girl's face pale.Fourier looked at Hei Zhen calmly, and she pursed her lips and stared back at Fourier. At the end of the mime, she finally escaped.
On the night before the decisive battle, the tenants and landlords had a last supper by candlelight.In a daze, Fourier remembered that before he entered society, there was a woman sitting in the same position and having dinner with him in silence.
Soon, heavy rain began to fall from the sky. The rain fell rapidly from the sky and made a crisp sound when it fell to the ground. The sultry heat in the room was replaced by refreshing, but the sultry heat between Fourier and Heizhen continued.
Before getting into the bathtub to go to sleep, he glanced at Hei Zhen and found that she was watering the anemones placed in the room.
Fourier had his own method of sleeping. This time, he filled a bathtub with water, added potion to it, and turned the bathtub into scarlet. Then, he put the weapon box within easy reach and took off his clothes. He lay down naked.
His body was resting, but his consciousness remained awake. He deduced the unknown based on the known. After confirming that he had arrived at the optimal solution in his cognition, Fourier's thinking was also interrupted, leaving only a hazy consciousness alerting the environment. Listen to the rumble of thunder and the sound of heavy rain.
Four hours, 4 minutes and 37 seconds later, Fourier felt someone gently open the door. It must be Heizhen. In the past, she had been so sleepy that she provided free benefits to Fourier. This kind of thing , even if Fourier wanted to reason, Heizhen would not reason with him.So he pretended to be asleep and got through.
This time, when he was about to use the same method, he felt the girl's fingers gently tap on his face, once, and again, and then gently press on the tip of his nose.
Fourier guessed that Heizhen was kneeling on the ground, leaning his upper body forward into the bathtub, and reaching out to poke his cheek. The problem was that this could never have been done by Heizhen in his sleep. However, she was conscious and attacked him in the bathtub during a thunderstorm night.
The embarrassing part is that when Hei Zhen arrived, the water in the bathtub had already turned transparent, and the flocculent objects that dyed the water red had settled to the bottom of the tank, making the upper water surface clear and transparent——
This can be understood as the slut Hei Zhen attacking the innocent naked man in the bathtub, or it can be understood as the perverted exhibitionist naked man in the bathtub licking the eyes of the innocent intruding girl.
Heizhen's fingers moved down and touched his lips, and the cold feeling spread.Fourier knew that he could no longer pretend to sleep, so he pretended to be "drowsy" and opened his eyes, and found that Hei Zhen was indeed leaning on the edge of the bathtub wall with his elbows, holding his chin in his hands, and lightning was on the pair of pale golden eyes. There was a fleeting look in his eyes, and the thunder came a few seconds later, shaking the silent air between them.
"Abnormal." Hei Zhen whispered.
"No matter how you think about it, I'm at a disadvantage." Fourier turned around and said, "If you were afraid of thunder, you would have told me earlier, and I would have made the floor in your room."
"I just...kept thinking about what you said."
The girl turned her back and sat down. She rested her head on the edge of the bathtub wall and looked up at the ceiling. Light red ripples spread on it, which were ripples caused by her silver-gray hair being submerged in the bathtub. A virtual image reflected on the ceiling.
"Then I want to tell you my true wish, Fourier."
Chapter 22 Show starts immediately
Before Fourier could answer, the girl continued: "I know, I am someone's substitute, part of a certain plan, like a shadow on the ceiling.
How old do you think I look? 16 years old? ? 20 years old?I don't even know this kind of thing. My memory can only be traced back to a year ago. My previous life was a blank. When I looked back, I was standing on a certain street, and then the 'common sense' in my mind told me My name is Joan of Arc, and you can guide me on how to survive in a strange place... Yes, although I'm not happy with you treating me like a puppet, I don't seem to have anything to refute. "
"Isn't it Jeanne d'Arc alter?"
The client waved her hand: "Alternate is a description of a state. My name is Joan of Arc. The suffix is to better distinguish me from the real person. After all, I am just a boring pirate.
Humph, then, when I said that I was Jeanne d'Arc [Alter], one or two of you subconsciously thought that alter had become my last name, so I became 'Miss Alt', 'Alt', 'Joan of Arc'. Alt', really annoying. "
"Then it would be better if my name is Joan of Arc?"
"No, just call me alter. I feel uncomfortable when I think that this is someone else's name."
Heizhen said: "In the beginning, I wandered aimlessly, asking for funds for survival from a few 'well-meaning' gangsters. Common sense accompanied me and made me know how to use my weapons. ...Even though I don’t even know why the flag and the sword are.
Then, I met the family next door, the imaginary space, the Shinra Corporation, and the resistance organization.Ever since Shinra Company deliberately avoided me and even protected me to a certain extent, I knew that my fate was related to them.
The standard bearer of Shinra Corporation is Toby Gerrard. You know his reputation, so it is not difficult to imagine that my life is closely related to him.He has always looked at me with that look from the moment I can remember, and I understood then that I was just a substitute, used to please the current person.
I hate that look. After meeting Gerald, some memories that don’t belong to me always appear in my dreams. Sometimes I am the shepherdess of Donremi, and sometimes I put on armor and bow my head to the young king I don’t know. , and sometimes I discussed military affairs with my deputy named Gilles de Rais.
At the end of these fragments, I was tied to a pillar, surrounded by red firelight, and the people around me shouted "witch", "witch", twisted happiness and deep emotions rippled on their faces, which was heart-breaking. Gagging. "
"So, Miss Alt, what do you think of that Joan of Arc?"
"The Joan of Arc in my memory has a peaceful mind and has been praying for the foolish lambs. As a bystander from the first perspective, I have had enough. If I were that Joan of Arc, I would like to say, why should I pray for those foolish people? Rubbish prayer? Why forgive their sins?
Tolerance and redemption never belong to me, and the flame of revenge burns in my heart...Toby Gerrard, who implanted common sense into me, set me up like this. He is very likely to know the secret of Joan of Arc. Destiny, so I feel that if Joan of Arc has a chance to be resurrected, she will definitely light up the world with the fireworks of revenge. "
Fourier wanted to reach out and touch the girl's hair. At such a close distance, the girl's body fragrance was heated by her own body temperature and penetrated into his nasal cavity.However, he is still soaked in the water, and his whole body is wet. When he reaches out his hand, it doesn't look like care for his companions at all, but an illusion of inner fan.
"Even though your weapon spoke of resentment and you were scary at the time, I don't think you would do that," Fourier said.
