Chapter 107

Fireworks are in full bloom in the sky, and the residents and tourists in Hopland are still immersed in the festival atmosphere, but the remote corner of the city is beginning to surge.

A figure in a hurry is constantly walking through the street. They knock on the closed shops and doors one by one, and open the dusty warehouses one by one.

A middle-aged man who has just fallen asleep opens the door drowsily. Those who wonder who is knocking at the door so late.

A dusty figure stood at the door, dressed in a short robe, with a face that could not be seen in the dark night.

"Is it Emerson?" The hasty visitor asked succinctly.

"Yes." The middle-aged people have some doubts. If they come to me so late, who will it be.

When the man in the robe heard the affirmative answer, he raised his parchment and said.

"In the past, the tisifunes have helped you. Now it's time to keep your promise."

Under the reflection of the brass lantern, the summoning document was clearly written in black on the parchment, and the signature was the owner and successor of the tissifoney family.

At the same time, there are three bright red seals on the bottom of the scroll, which are "dagger pierces the skeleton", "seven color gem flowers" and "tilted wine bottle", symbolizing the joint declaration of tissifoney, anemie and nisos, the most powerful chamber of Commerce in Hopland.

Looking at the shocking red inkpad, the middle-aged man suddenly woke up, sleepless, he was shocked to ask.

"Is it now?"

"Yes, take your weapons, put on your armor, lock the door, draw the pattern of three swords crossing on the door, and then immediately assemble at the tissifoney chamber of Commerce“

"If you don't have weapons and armor, the chamber of Commerce will prepare for it, but it doesn't necessarily work together."

"Well, I see."

The middle-aged man nodded solemnly, and the messenger didn't stay after seeing that he had achieved his goal. He immediately went to the next house.

The middle-aged man rushed back to the bedroom and quickly opened the bed board to reveal the low wooden box locked below.

Open the lock, inside is the oil paper wrapped sword and a set of lock armour, he immediately began to take off his inappropriate coat, began to wear.

"Dad, what's the matter? You have a loud voice over there?" A young girl's voice came from the next room.

The middle-aged man hesitated, then continued to wear lock armour, and began to admonish: "Dad will go out later, I will lock the door. Remember, no matter what happens outside tonight, don't open the door“

"What's the matter? Dad... "

A little girl in a light colored Nightgown opened the door and her eyes widened in surprise when she saw that her father was wearing lock armour and holding a sharp sword.

"I don't have time to explain to you, baby. Don't worry about Dad. Dad will be back in a few days. There's food in the cellar. Don't starve yourself. In addition, don't open the door. No matter who it is, no matter what sound you hear, do you understand? "

"I see." The little girl looked at her father and nodded.

"Good, good, my good Shanna."

The middle-aged man looked at his sensible daughter, hugged her with a rough and cocooned palm, and then touched her head lovingly.

Then he took out a piece of white chalk and drew three crossed swords on the door. He asked his daughter to lock the door and finally rushed into the night without looking back.

This scene takes place in all parts of hoplaner city. Carriages with the signs of the three major chambers of Commerce rush through the streets. The street vendors and tourists have to give way.

Hopland's top five chambers of commerce are deeply rooted, except for the karites, who have been newly promoted in recent decades. They don't know how many contacts and relationships they have accumulated in more than a hundred years. It was expected that Angus would have been trapped in that year. Even without Mrs. Meira, there would have been Mrs. Sheila, Mrs. Mora and so on. If Angus hadn't joined us earlier, That will be the new promotion of caritus really do not have to fight against the Hollis family.

The influence of several major chambers of Commerce in the city is intertwined, and some external personnel have their own interests. When the three companies move here, the Hollis family immediately receives the news.

"Young lady, now the other three families in Hopland are suddenly starting to gather people, and even the informants say that they are ready to go to war."

In the dim yellow light of the candle, Meru just walked out of her bedroom in her pajamas. Outside the door stood several messengers, along with the family's guards, waiting for orders.

Although we don't know what the specific purpose of the other three companies is, we can be sure that they must deal with the Carites and the Hollis, because Hopland is not qualified to make such a stir except for the two big chambers of Commerce.

Mei Lu's face was serious. After hearing the news, she didn't hesitate.

"Immediately send messengers to inform calites of the seriousness of the situation, ring the bell and call out all the people in the chamber of Commerce. In addition, we have old, friendly and cooperative friends in the city. These people immediately send familiar people to inform them one by one and ask them to move to our chamber of Commerce headquarters immediately. The reason is that there will be civil strife in Hopland tonight, And the Hollis will protect them. "

"Every family has said it twice. If they still don't listen, don't worry about it. Let's change to another family."

"Yes, miss." Several high-level managers at the side took action immediately.

"In addition, send someone to open the underground warehouse of the chamber of Commerce, move out all weapons and armor, distribute weapons to everyone, and then you guards with better discipline will each bring a team of ordinary personnel. Every experienced guard is a team leader and immediately organizes all the people in the chamber of Commerce. "

"Your will, miss." Several guard captains also hurried out.

After that, Meru looks to the only pro guard captain left behind. The existence of sequence 4 is her mother's brother's son, which is her cousin.

"Brother GERD, please organize people to guard the gate tonight, please."

"Don't worry, Meru. I'll protect you." The guard in dark gold armor looked at his sister with concern, answered the promise, and then quickly walked out, leaving a broad back.

Mei Lu stood under the window sill of the corridor and watched the bell ring in the courtyard, then the scattered lights came on. There were people running around, the sound of armor rubbing, footsteps, shouts and moving objects. It was very noisy at night.

"Miss, why are you still wearing thin pajamas? That's not good."

The maid went up the stairs and looked at Meru, who was still standing by the window in the corridor.

"I remember that the master had collected some extraordinary soft armours before. I'll find them for you right away. You are the master of the family now. If there is an accident, the Hollis family will be finished

"It's OK, aunt lig. I believe in you."

"Besides, if even I'm facing the sword, the Hollis family will not be able to survive." Mei Lu turned her head, and her figure in the silver moonlight seemed a little lonely.

"No, you must wear it. When is it? You are as disobedient as you were when you were a child. The master dare not take care of you now, but I dare. I raised you all by myself."

The head maid forced Mello back to the bedroom, still saying.

"I take care of you more than I take care of my own children. If anything happens to you, I can't stand it."

Mei Lu was pulled, although she didn't admit it, there was a little tear in her eyes.
