28. Threat (3k)(1/2)
As soon as Hevin opened the door, he saw Halla hugging Enid.
Hewen resisted the idea of opening the door again:
"what happened?"
The Fallen Wings once again transformed into gauntlets, blocking Enid's abilities.
When Hewen pushed the door open and entered, the emotions coming from Ha La changed drastically, allowing her to regain her composure.
It is a sense of unconditional trust and a sense of security that can dispel all fears and worries.
Enid picked up Halla and carried her back to the sofa.
"Alice is a very lovely girl."
Hevin hung his hat on the rack:
"Are you here to play with Alice?"
In his eyes, two little girls of similar mental age seemed to be having a great time.
Enid cleared her throat, stood up, looked at Hevin and said:
"Mr. Wright, we need to go out together."
Hewen asked:
"what happened?"
Enid replied:
"Bishop Alec came to us and asked us to tell you something.,
"Mr. Wright previously donated a sum of money to Original Fire to allow them to rebuild the church, and has continued to provide funds.
"The church had already negotiated with Rodney to acquire a batch of pink dragon crystal diamonds for 30 million pounds as one of the main materials for repairing the church, but now something unexpected happened."
"Then they can't solve it? And why did they come to the Knights again?"
The apprentice of the pure white knight explained:
"Actually, it's like this. Dragon crystal diamonds are the national stone of England. The church is willing to use them as the main material, which is something that can greatly improve the relationship between the two parties.
"And it's not that the Rodney Chamber of Commerce is unwilling to make this deal, it's just that they said that some things must be discussed with you face to face. After all, you are the one who is nominally paying."
Hewen said doubtfully:
"It's just a pile of diamonds, does it need to be so troublesome?"
Enid shook her ponytail:
"You may not know that dragon crystal diamonds are an important resource. They are usually supplied to the three giant dragons that protect the country."
Hewen asked cooperatively:
"Dragon protecting the country?"
"When King Arthur went to war, he found three giant dragons and made them surrender in exchange for defeating the evil white dragon that had oppressed them.
"Since then, the three giant dragons have been hovering over the kingdom all the time, watching for possible evil."
Hewen raised his head, his gaze seemed to be able to penetrate the roof:
"Is there a dragon up there?"
Enid chuckled:
"How is it possible? King Arthur has been sleeping for a long time now. They proposed a long time ago that the three dragons would rotate every hundred years and stay in the capital of the kingdom. Moreover, they would only appear in extremely serious crises.
"In fact, the three giant dragons are becoming more and more indifferent to their responsibilities. You must know that the name of the former England Dragon Knights was the Dragon Knights. But after King Arthur fell asleep, the three dragons all strongly requested the Dragon Knights.
Renamed the Dragon Knights."
Hewen looked amazed:
"But it's also amazing. The dragon that protects the country is like a legend."
Enid looked proud:
"King Arthur is the legend itself."
Hewen nodded:
"I believe."
Enid sighed again:
"If my king were awake, why would we have so many worries? Fortunately, the dragon who protects the country and remains in Wharton is the most loyal and kind-hearted Lord Black Dragon.
"The Black Dragon fought with King Arthur until the last moment, and it was seriously injured as a result. It has not fully recovered yet. It needs a large amount of dragon crystal diamonds to recover its body. This is why the matter about dragon crystal diamonds is so important.
, because this ore is of great significance to England."
Hewen showed a clear expression:
"I understand. If that's the case, then I'll go with you."
Hewen looked at Ha La and ordered:
"No matter what happens, you can't leave the house, you know? There is also spare food in the cellar. Even if I don't come back right away, you are not allowed to go out to find me."
Ha La nodded heavily and said firmly:
"Well, I listen to you."
Now that he had decided to set off, Hevin didn't delay too much. He and Enid boarded the train to Ambernay, the city where the Rodney Chamber of Commerce was located, and set off without stopping.
The power of modern technology allows the schedule that should have been galloping for several days to end in half a day.
Under the leadership of Enid, Hevin opened the door of Rodney Chamber of Commerce.
On one side of the chamber of commerce, there was a waiter dedicated to reception, and there were many well-dressed people standing around. They looked at the two people who came in, and their eyes seemed to say, 'Did they go to the wrong place?'
Enid snickered secretly in her heart, wondering what their expressions would be like if they knew that Wright's assets were more than theirs combined.
"We are here to find your president."
The waiter flipped through the reservation form and asked with a frown:
"Do you have an appointment?"
Hevin replied:
"No, it was your president who asked me to come. I am Wright."
The waiter raised his eyebrows slightly:
"Oh, I can't see Wright's name on the table. I don't care who you are. You can't see the president without an appointment."
Hewen was a little surprised. The other party really didn't know him, or President Rodney wanted to give him a blow.
"I am Enid, the apprentice of the Pure White Knight. Can you please inform President Rodney? Let me tell you that Wright and Enid are visiting." Enid flashed the silver sword on her waist.
The waiter wanted to make some sarcastic remarks, but when he saw the look in Enid's eyes, he was speechless.
It was like seeing a dragon.
"Well, okay, okay, I'll tell the president right now."
After saying that, the waiter left quickly as if running away.
Hewen asked:
"Enid, can any waiter directly meet the president of the Rodney Chamber of Commerce?"
Enid also noticed something was wrong and said with a serious expression:
"It's generally unlikely."
The two waited patiently on the spot.
However, after a while, they felt something was wrong.
"This has been too long, it's been almost half an hour." The girl frowned lightly with her white eyebrows.
Hevin shouted tentatively:
"If Rodney doesn't want to talk, forget it."
After saying that, Hewen made a move to lift his legs and leave.
A young waiter rushed out.
"Mr. Wright, Mr. Wright, and Mr. Rodney have prepared the conference room. Please come with me."
Hevin and Enid followed the waiter to a room designed with the aesthetics of the last century.
After five or six minutes, the little old man Rodney arrived belatedly, with a careless smile on his face.
"Everyone, please wait..."
Hewen struck preemptively:
"You arranged all of this, from the waiter, to the waiting time, to waiting for the long boring meeting, Rodney."
To be continued...
