The one outside the door was undoubtedly Verna.
"Velna, what brings you here again? We just met not long ago, didn't we?" Amelia asked, somewhat surprised, upon seeing Verna's arrival.
"I've come to tell you how things are progressing," Verna said as she walked over, her low red ponytail swaying behind her.
"How is the situation progressing?"
"Yes, I've already had someone report Ron, and even the police have come to White Maple Academy. How efficient is that?"
Verna also sounded somewhat smug when she said this.
She had always been amazed by Amelia's efficiency and deeply admired it, believing that efficiency determined whether a task could be accomplished successfully.
So this time she also pursued efficiency and completed what she was supposed to do in a short period of time.
"I'm surprised by this efficiency. How did you do it?" Amelia was indeed a little surprised.
Verna was pleased with Amelia's surprised expression and smiled, saying, "I actually had someone report it directly to the police station, saying that I accidentally overheard Ron mentioning the Red Moon Society's key words. It was that simple and direct."
It should be noted that the words "Red Moon Society" are extremely sensitive to the Duchy of Luban, so this action, though seemingly simple and crude, is remarkably effective.
"Did you send your people to report it? Won't that make the police station take notice of you?" Amelia asked after thinking for a moment.
"Don't worry, the person who reported me isn't actually one of my people."
"Strictly speaking?"
"That guy is just someone I have leverage over. He doesn't even know who I am. He was blackmailed by me, so he reported me."
Verna gave a brief explanation.
In this way, even if the police station investigates the person who made the report, they will only know that the person was asked by a mysterious person to report Ron, and who that mysterious person is will remain unknown.
Amelia nodded knowingly: "I see. So, all we need to do now is wait for the results?"
Amelia relaxed.
However, just as she relaxed, she noticed that the number of bullet comments in front of her had suddenly increased, and her attention was subconsciously focused on the bullet comments.
[Corpse puppet? I feel a bit disgusted every time I see this ability. After all, it involves manipulating corpses and making them look like oneself. Doesn't he find it repulsive?]
This is standard procedure for members of the Red Moon Society.
[Daphne is pretty, she looks really charming, hehe.]
[Ron just ran away like that? Is he going to cause trouble again?]
Is Ron trying to scheme against Amelia?
[Oh no, Ron is heading this way towards the dorms. The teachers' dorms and the students' dorms aren't far apart.]
Don't worry, with Eileen around, what is Ron?
[But if a fight suddenly breaks out, wouldn't that expose Amelia's identity? Isn't that a much bigger threat than Ron himself?]
As she watched the barrage of bullets fly by, Amelia's heart tightened.
Did Ron escape from the sheriffs?
And this guy is coming towards me? Planning to grab me before he leaves?
Amelia spoke without hesitation: "Eileen, Verna, let's go out."
"Are you going to class? There's been a problem with Ron, so the harp class should be canceled for the time being. But it's still necessary to go there, since you shouldn't have known in advance that there would be no class."
Verna didn't think much of it.
Amelia then walked out of the student dormitory with Eileen and Verna.
However, Amelia did not head towards the teaching building, but instead walked in another direction, towards a white maple forest.
The white maple forest is lush and verdant, with patches of white maple leaves piled up together, making it look from a distance as if a snowfall had occurred, both serene and beautiful.
Normally, many people come to Baifenglin to enjoy the beautiful scenery, but as class time approaches, there is naturally no one here.
"Amelia, what are you planning to do?" Seeing Amelia heading towards the white maple forest, Verna immediately sensed that something was wrong.
"I'm just taking precautions."
"Just in case?"
Verna seemed a little confused.
“Yes,” Amelia said calmly. “Although we reported Ron and got the police to keep an eye on him, it’s still uncertain whether Ron is really the only one among the Red Moon Society members who came. What if there are other members of the Red Moon Society? If they find out that Ron is in trouble, is it possible that they might take the risk of coming after me? So I think it’s not safe for me to stay in the dormitory or go to class. It’s better to stay somewhere else.”
This was the excuse Amelia used to deal with Verna.
However, these words made a lot of sense to Verna.
"You're right, in that case..."
There's a problem.
Before Verna could finish speaking, Eileen suddenly interrupted her.
Amelia and Verna both looked at Eileen.
Eileen lowered her head and said softly, "I sensed someone was watching us. They started watching us as soon as we came out of the dormitory. Judging from the threatening look in their eyes, it should be a mid-level apostle."
“Pretend nothing happened,” Amelia said calmly. “Then launch a sneak attack and quickly take them out.”
Verna looked at the two of them in surprise.
Eileen was able to judge the strength of the person staring at her just by their gaze.
Furthermore, Amelia's calm demeanor amazed her, as if she had known all along that someone was watching them.
Amelia said calmly, "No matter who it is, since they have malicious intent, we have no choice but to deal with them first. I'll have to ask Verna to set up a barrier to prevent us from being discovered when we take action."
“I understand,” Verna nodded.
Chapter 85 Murder, the Second Prince
People are not as good as the sky.
In Amelia's plan, Ron would be caught and arrested by the police, and if he was killed on the spot for resisting, that would undoubtedly be a better outcome.
But she didn't expect that Ron would be able to escape even after being caught off guard by the police.
'I'm still too inexperienced; my plans often have oversights, just like back in Rhine City… But now is not the time to dwell on that; I should be thinking about the follow-up arrangements.'
Amelia pondered.
She trusted Eileen's judgment. Since it was a mid-level apostle who was targeting them, Eileen was confident she could handle it and defeat the enemy without any problem.
The question is how to deal with the other party without causing too much of a commotion?
"We've arrived."
Verna spoke softly.
They entered the white maple forest ahead.
As they went inside, Amelia whispered, "Verna, our sudden arrival at this time will likely arouse suspicion from those watching us, so we need to do something."
"Then what should we do?" Verna asked quickly.
As someone who aspires to the position of Grand Duke, Verna is adept at finding solutions to various problems on her own. However, after meeting Amelia, she always felt that Amelia's wisdom was extraordinary and that she could always provide the most effective help. Unconsciously, she became accustomed to letting Amelia come up with the solutions.
"We can do it like this..."
Amelia slowly offered her suggestion.
==========
Ron was indeed a little confused.
What are Amelia and the others doing in the White Maple Forest at this time?
This highly unusual situation made Ron wary, and he didn't attack rashly. However, he knew he couldn't stay in White Maple Academy for too long, and he felt that dragging it out any longer wouldn't be good. He couldn't help but feel a little restless.
At this moment, Ron also arrived at the location of the white maple forest. Using the trees as cover, he carefully followed Amelia and the other two.
"This is it."
The voices of Amelia and her companions could be heard from ahead.
“Bennett would never have imagined that we would hide things here.”
"With this, we're not afraid that Bennett won't back down."
Verna and Amelia's voices came from separately.
Upon hearing such a voice, Ron couldn't help but feel a little confused.
He knew exactly who Bennett was. As the second prince, who was most likely to become the next Grand Duke, Bennett's importance in the Duchy of Luban was obvious. So what did the two girls in front of him want to do to Bennett?
This aroused Ron's curiosity, so he moved closer and saw Amelia and Verna.
The two were squatting next to a tree, seemingly digging something in the ground.
Did they dig up something that would make Bennett bow down?
Just as Ron was wondering, Amelia exclaimed with delight, "Found it!"
Found it?
What was found?
Ron instinctively leaned forward, wanting to see what had been dug out.
but……
Was my head sticking out too far? Why was it sticking above two girls? Why was a whole swathe of white maple forest beneath me?
The headless corpse under the tree behind looks kind of familiar.
Why is there a maid holding a sword standing behind that headless corpse?
After a few thoughts flashed through his mind, Ron's consciousness immediately plunged into darkness, and his severed head fell to the ground, spinning around several times.
"nailed it."
Amelia stood up and looked back.
Verna looked at Ron's head and said, "This is the middle-ranking apostle? He's dead just like that?"
