Raverie curtsies " Mistress."
Lianari: yes raverie ?
Raverie: its been 2 weeks. I noticed you haven't been visiting Mr Jura. Are you going to visit him soon?
Lianari: you're concerned?
Raverie: of course. Whatever you do connects you with Master Jin. I wouldn't want you to put us in risk
Lianari: us? I guess indeed us.
Raverie: what's your next step?
Lianari: you will see.
Hmm... her eyes is for me? Or for Jin? Or for both?
--------------------------------------------
Jin enters his room and climbs into his bed to find a woman in it . He gets off " why are you here ? Where is lianari?"
Raverie: I asked if I could stay a night with you. She said ok.
Jin : get out. Now
Raverie: you know , the emperor gave me to you. I can do what women are supposed to do. You don't have to have your guard that up against me.
Jin : are you begging for attention?
Raverie: I simply don't want to keep to an empty room...
" Get out... " He said in a gentler voice. She understood and left.
________________________________
He pushes her room door " ooi . "
She was already asleep.
He was kinda angry.
That girl !! She made this her room already. I only said I let her put things in here !! She even placed a bed.
He walked over .
And sat down next to her. " You little violent . Killing someone else's horses. I'm going to hear nagging from those ministers now. I'll punish you tomorrow. "
________________________________
He sees her taking a plate piled a few buns and walking out of the dining hall " hey. "
Lianari: shit.
Jin ; oh. So you know what you've done.
Lianari: it's just a girl. You kicked her out anyway.
Jin ; and if I had sex with her , what are you going to do ?
Lianari: eh. You have sex with Yuri too. Why do I have to be angry ?
Jin : you have to answer to Yuri !!
Lianari: ... I could keep a secret for you. It's just sex. Maybe she'll drop her guard against you . She's very peeky and nosy.
Jin anime veined " I'm not a tool. "
Lianari: I know. You're a General. Erm. Enjoy your breakfast.
She walked past him . He grabbed onto her back collar " you little menace. "
Lianari: ok. I'm sorry.
Jin : what are you going to do today ?
Lianari: go find Mr Jura. The letters we send disappeared into the air . I gave him the series of people who are supposed to take the letters and pass on to the next until it reaches the capital. He's looking into where the link broke.
Jin walked to her front " I'm surprised you didn't try to do this on your own. "
Lianari: I did a check on him. He takes all his cases very seriously. There had not yet one case he missed the real culprit. It's ok to put in his hands. Plus... If I did it... I'm afraid I'll start killing again. You know people like us... Killing comes too easy ...
He ruffles her hair " little violent. Good choice. If you tried on your own and leave corpses in your trail , Mr Jura will have to catch you as well. Keep yourself out of trouble. "
Lianari: I'll try.
She goes pass him. He grabs onto her arm.
Lianari: what ?
Jin: eat with me.
Lianari: you're troublesome.

Jin : butler.
" Yes. Master ?"
Jin : pay for the horses she killed off at the party. Say we're sorry their horses were killed. They were in my wife's way. Too stubborn and didn't want to budge. It was the only way.
" Mistress already did that. "
Jin : pay for the horses ? That's rare.
" Also said the same thing you said. " The butler laughed. " The Madams were very angry when we sent the money. But they took it anyway. "
Jin laughed " that little menace."

Lianari: hey Mr Jura
Jura ; hi Colonel Lianari
Lianari: you're one of the few people who maintain that title for me.
Jura : a tiny reminder for me , that I can't fail.
Lianari: I'm not that type of person.
Jura ; I'm joking. Though I did hear you killed off some horses at a party.
Lianari: they were annoying. I paid them already. They can buy new horses.
Jura ; that's one way to build your image.
Lianari shrugs " so .... anything? "
Jura : one of the men, Henry that handled your letters . He committed suicide. A large sum of money was seen given to his family after that.
Lianari: tsk . Another dead end.
Jura : I did go to his family to ask who delivered the money. It was very discreet. They didn't know the person either as he wore a mask.
Lianari; damn it. So this was a sabotage. I have something more for you.
Jura ; really ? Please tell me.
Lianari: so you know about General Bino's crime ?
Jura ; yes. That was investigated by Mr Anderson.
Lianari: I suspect the same happened. He did send letters to ask for help. None reached. It was of last desperate call he asked for General Jin for help.
Jura : are you saying, he was framed with different words to cover over why he lost the city ?
Lianari: yes.
Jura ; that's a rash judgement to make without evidence.
Lianari: say Mr Jura . Do you have the power to push Mr Anderson's judgement?
Jura : he and I are of same rank. I would need irrefutable evidence. But what you're assuming is just an assumption.
Lianari: I see.
Jura : the emperor closed this case.To bring it back up you would need , irrefutable evidence
Lianari: I see.
Jura ; be care of what you're planning Colonel Lianari. I can only support as maximum I can.
Lianari stood up " I understand. "
