Chapter 313: Be careful when you go out
"Marian's father is famous for his boldness in investments. He often makes big money and also often loses money. He dared to invest in something meaningless."
"Maybe she is influenced a lot by her father, and her mind is very forward."
"Yes, it's a waste to invest in such a poor nobleman."
"No, no, No. maybe her father has asked her to invest in this man in order to please the duke, Madeleine.
"Oh, it turns out to be political investment. Shit, why didn't I think of it?" Another girl couldn't help but snort, "I almost forgot that Madeleine is behind Robb.
"We are still too young. We are often not included in the political circle." A seventeen year old girl threw up her hands and said, "in the face of this kind of thing, you are not as smart as Marian."
Robb had sharp ears and heard some discussions, but he didn't care about them at all. No matter whether Marian invested to make money or for politics, as long as others were good to him, that would be fine. He didn't care about it much. It was better than someone who wanted to trap him, two evils or one evils, which is better?
He waved at Marian with a smile and said, "after school, we two can buy some materials to make magic items. I will make your investment pay off."
Then, everyone continued to listen to number 32s lesson, basic knowledge was taught, such as which materials could be used to match with what, which shape of the magic items could be used, and which runes could be engraved on the magic items to provide the corresponding functions.
Robb was very serious. He drew every rune on his notebook and kept it in mind. No other student could compare with him in his attitude of studying seriously, so there was no more twists and turns in the following. All his classes were finished soon.
School was over!
Robb smiled at Marian and said, "let's go to buy some materials."
Marian stood up with a smile. The two walked out of the classroom together. Suofa outside and Marian's maid greeted them.
Marian smiled and said to her maid, "Go home and ask the housekeeper to send me a bag of gold coins to the jewelry store. I'm going to the jewelry store to buy twenty-five rubies."
Marian was speechless
The two of them passed through the playground and walked to the school gate, only to see a large group of soldiers standing at the school gate. Madeleine was also there, commanding a group of soldiers to guard the school gate with a large number of soldiers.
Robb asked, "miss Madeleine, what are you doing?"
"Emergency measures." Madeleine rolled her eyes at Marian and ignored her. She approached Robb and whispered in a voice that only Robb could hear, "you know what happened last night. The princess of East Gran is now in Bright Road. The queen has ordered to block the whole city and search for her. We must catch this woman."
"Oh," Robb said and thought, [it's inevitable. If I were to know that the princess of the enemy kingdom is at my home, I would have tried my best to find her out as well.]
Madeleine moved her mouth away from Robb's ear, stood straight again and said in a loud voice, "this is..."
Marian held her dress with both hands and squatted slightly. "I'm the daughter of Desmond Corton, Marian Corton. Greetings, Duke."
Madeleine asked, "where are you going?"
She didn't look at Marian anymore and turned back to Robb.
Robb smiled and said, "I've come up with a new magic item. But because I don't have money to do it, I asked Miss Marian to invest in it. Now we're going to the jewelry store to buy materials and make new magic items."
"Oh? Really?" Madeleine said in a calm tone. She turned to Marian and said seriously, "how could you invest in this man? Do you know what kind of person he is? He is a scum who goes to the illegal prostitution sector in the middle of the night. I advise you to keep some distance from him as much as possible."
Marian was embarrassed and didn't know how to answer.
However, Robb burst into laughter and said, "miss Madeleine, my classmate invested in my invention to please you, but you actually persuaded her to ignore me. Don't you think thats embarrassing?"
"What?" All of a sudden, Madeleine understood what was going on. She took a deep look at Marian, and then turned to Robb, "if you want to go to the jewelry store, just go. You must go back to school before dark. Remember, although you are not a senior official, after what happened last night, you have become one of the targets of assassination. Don't go to that unknown street again. Don't forget how count Amos died."
