Why did you leave? Was there something I did wrong?

The girl took the letter tremblingly and opened it slowly.

[Miss Tianzi, no, Miss Lihua, when you see this letter, we must have left.

I will take Bai Lan away, but the laptop, charging device and USB flash drive will all be left to you. They mainly contain various TVs, animations and other entertainment products, which you can use to kill time.

I understand your uneasiness. You have never dealt with state affairs before, and it would be a bit unreasonable to ask you to work hard all of a sudden.

But as the Son of Heaven, there are too many things that you must do and can only be done by you.

Once the power is delegated to others, it is easy for powerful officials to come to power.

After all, only things and reputation cannot be lent to others, this is an eternal truth.

Those who don't understand this principle will soon die.

By the way, let me recommend three talented people to you. They all have their own strengths, and you can make good use of them...

Then, we'll see you in the future.]

The next moment, the girl unconsciously covered her heart with her hands, tears rolling in her eyes.

Seeing the tears in the emperor's eyes, the old butler shook his head slightly and sighed.

Young master, young master, you came to the king's defense and then retreated calmly. Moreover, the age difference between them was similar. Such behavior was too much of a shock to a young girl like the emperor who grew up in seclusion and had no experience in the affairs of state.

Perhaps, this relationship will become unforgettable for the emperor?

"What time... did he take the flight?"

"They left around seven in the morning. Judging from the flight, they should have arrived by now, right?"

“…I see…”

......

In the evening, on the island country now known as District 11, inside Ashford College run by the Ashford family.

Because his sister Nunnally's legs were unable to move and it was too inconvenient for her to live in the girls' dormitory, Lelouch, at the kindness of the chairman, lived with his sister in the student union building.

Although his sister couldn't see, in order to cultivate her ability to live independently, Lelouch didn't feed her. Instead, he watched by her side and only helped her when she accidentally spilled food.

At this moment, all the student union members have left, and the second floor of the student union, where only the brother and sister are, seems exceptionally quiet.

At this moment, footsteps suddenly sounded beside the two of them, and Nanali suddenly stopped what she was doing.

Lelouch also stood up instantly, staring closely at the person who came.

"It's you! How did you get in?"

? ?

Is this someone my brother knows?

Enemy? Or friend?

In order to avoid disturbing Lelouch, Nunnally pricked up her ears nervously and silently prepared to get up and run away at any time.

"Oh...? You know me?"

"There's a report online about a wealthy individual from the Flower Planting Federation who treated over three billion people nationwide to a meal.

Then, at the banquet yesterday at noon, they suddenly took action and cleared out all the officials around the emperor.

There are mixed reviews online about this.

I didn’t expect that you would show up here just one day later.”

"I see, news spreads really fast."

Bai Mu smiled unconsciously and said:

"Don't worry, I'm not here to cause you any trouble. Lelouch, I'm here to seek your cooperation."

"Oh...? You want to use me?"

Lelouch's mind raced, frantically pondering the other party's possible intentions.

But there was too little information about the Flower Planting Federation, and countless ideas popped up in his mind, but disappeared in an instant.

"If you really want to say it's exploitation, it's not wrong. After all, most relationships between people are based on mutual exploitation, even blood relatives are no exception."

Indeed, the only person he cared about was Nunnally.

Lelouch pondered for two seconds, then asked tentatively:

"What is your purpose? What do you want me to do?"

"Complete information on Sakura Stone weapons. This is one of the purposes of my trip."

Bai Mu paused for a moment, then continued:

"I want you to be my military advisor and help me with strategies."

"You come up with ideas, and I take action."

"Sakura stone weapons are very powerful, but due to the eunuchs' inaction, the flower-growing people still use gunpowder weapons, which has widened the gap with the current mainstream."

"Although the population is large, if the generation gap in weapons continues to widen, if a world war breaks out, it will become very dangerous in the early stages."

Lelouch thought thoughtfully, it seems that the cherry stone has been discovered over there by the flower garden.

Come to think of it, it is impossible not to find any cherry stone minerals in such a large territory.

"So, what's the reward?"

Bai Mu pondered for two seconds, stretched out a finger, and slowly spoke:

"A favor, or in other words, a favor. No matter what it is, as long as it does not violate my bottom line, conscience, morality, etc., I can agree to it."

What a loud tone.

However, one can imagine the financial resources of someone who can afford to treat more than three billion people to a meal.

Lelouch's intuition told him that the man in front of him was extremely dangerous, but as long as there was a possibility of negotiation, there was an opportunity to take advantage of him.

Or, as he said, the relationship between people is one of mutual benefit.

"make a deal."

Lelouch chuckled, shook hands lightly with Shiromu's outstretched right hand, and then said:

"You just mentioned one of your purposes, right? In other words, you have other purposes?"

"Of course. Britannia's technology is much more advanced than that of the flower-growing countries. Aside from the Sakura Stone weapons, many military and civilian technologies have already had a generation gap. If possible, I'd like to have them all."

"How greedy! This is the first time I've seen someone come here so openly to serve as a spy."

"Haha...hasn't it always been like this? If I were to make an excuse, I could come up with ten thousand. For example, my cat is missing, it must have been stolen by the Britannians, and they must compensate me one trillion for emotional distress."

"How dare you say that? Which cat is worth so much money?"

"My cat can do backflips, speak human language, turn into a cat-eared girl, and even shed tears that turn into diamonds."

"Even fantasy novels wouldn't dare write about a cat like this."

"You haven't even been to my house, how dare you assume I don't have a cat like that? Haha... After all, you can have all the excuses you want."

Lelouch was slightly startled, then he also laughed:

"That makes sense, haha..."

Hearing the two people's laughter, Nunnally couldn't help but laugh too.

Are these two competing to see who can laugh louder?

However, I haven't seen my brother laugh like this for a long time.

Chapter 133: Clovis: I'm done, really done this time

At night, after Nunnally fell asleep, Lelouch dialed the number left by Bai Mu.

In almost an instant, a white curtain appeared out of thin air behind him.

Noticing this, Lelouch silently put down his phone.

He seemed to have appeared out of thin air like this before, teleporting?

"I want to talk to you about the technical information I mentioned earlier. That shouldn't be your sole purpose, right?"

"This is not the place to talk. Don't resist. I'll take you back later."

Bai Mu gently placed his left hand on Lelouch's shoulder and tapped the system interface a few times with his right hand.

The next moment, the two of them appeared in the courtyard of a Japanese-style mansion at the same time.

"This is the house I just bought this afternoon. It's located in Shibuya. I'll be living here from now on. If you have any questions, just come find me here."

"As you just said, technical information is only one aspect."

"I came here to seize control of Japan from Britannia. The large amount of sakura stone minerals stored underground here are quite important."

It turned out to be the case.

Compared to using your own mineral reserves, it is safer to use your neighbor's.

Moreover, Japan is right next to the flower plantations, so they certainly can't feel at ease.

The Britannians called Japan Area 11, and the flower-growing people called it Dongying, and they all just treated it as an object that they could dispose of at will.

It's true, in front of these two superpowers, how can such a small island country talk about autonomy?

"So, what are you going to do?"

"This is what you're going to do. You come up with the ideas, and I'll take the action."

"...Are you so confident in me? Aren't you afraid that I'll be colluding with Britannia? With your financial resources, you should have discovered Nunnally and I's true identities long ago."

Or rather, he probably came to me for this very reason.

Noticing Lelouch staring at him, Bai Mu shook his head slightly and said thoughtfully:

"My mother died, and my sister became what she is now. I don't believe you don't have any resentment in your heart."

"Really, whether the Britannia Empire is good or bad now, what does it have to do with you?"

"Until all your brothers and sisters are dead, there is no possibility for you to inherit the empire."

"Also, I can promise you that I will do my best to find a way to treat your sister."

"That makes sense." Lelouch chuckled.

Although I don't believe what the other party said, these reasons are enough to convince myself.

"From yesterday's news, both you and Miss Shinano possess exceptional combat prowess, capable of defeating a thousand on the battlefield alone."

"Especially Miss Shinano. Her back-mounted armament, while weak in defense, has specialized her offensive capabilities to the extreme."

"Combined with the teleportation ability you just demonstrated, it's enough."

"So, the first plan is that you teleport directly to the Governor's Mansion and kidnap Clovis, the Governor of Area 11."

"A living Clovis is more useful than a dead one. As long as you can kidnap him intact, I'm confident I can extract the location of the information from him."

"can."

Bai Mu nodded slightly, and then added:

"In order to avoid any misunderstandings about me, let me first explain my abilities."

"This is not teleportation, but fixed-point transmission."

"Sneak into a certain place in advance, set up a point, and then you can go back and forth between the two places at will."

"However, I've visited many places in Tokyo today, including the Governor's Palace, so going there shouldn't be any problem."

"Wait a moment, I'll be right back."

After he finished speaking, the white screen disappeared instantly.

Only two seconds later, he reappeared with a purple gourd in his hand.

When the stopper was opened, Clovis flew out of the gourd, gradually growing bigger, and fell heavily to the ground, looking around in confusion.

Lelouch's breathing became a little rapid for a moment. This scene was also seen in the report yesterday, and he was not unfamiliar with it.
