After Alice arrived at the Mitsukoshi Chamber of Commerce, she went straight to the president's office.

Upon entering the president's office, Alice sees Gamma and Beta sitting inside.

Alice looked at Gamma first, then looked at Beta with her eyes.

Gamma smiled

"Your Highness Alice, you can just say anything you want. "

Alice understood and asked directly

"Is the Shadow Boss here?"

Gamma replied,

"Lord Shadow is busy at the moment, you can sit down and have a cup of tea and wait for him. "

Alice nodded and sat down on the couch next to her.

Gamma poured a cup of tea and placed it in front of Alice

"I wonder what Her Highness Alice is doing with Lord Shadow?"

"If it's urgent, I think Lord Shadow will come to you as soon as possible. "

Alice turned her head to look at Gamma

"Don't you know that Princess Lotz was assassinated just now?"

Gamma sat down on the couch lightly

"Yes. "

"I've heard that someone pretended to be the shadow keeper of the Shadow Garden. “

Alice nodded

"Yes. "

"As for who is pretending to be your organization, we will thoroughly investigate and give your organization an explanation. "

"But I came here for another purpose, I want to make sure that Princess Lotz is safe. "

"And thank you to the Shadow Boss. "

Gamma kept a smile on her face

"Shadow will come to accept your thanks when he's done. "

"But Princess Lotsy's safety, why do you need to go to the Mitsukoshi Chamber of Commerce to confirm it with your own eyes?"

"Her Royal Highness Alice's words are easy to misunderstand. "

Gamma got up and walked to the window, glanced down, and then looked back at Alice

"Thanks to you, the popularity of the Mitsukoshi Chamber of Commerce has risen to a new height. "

It seems that the crowd of onlookers below is very curious about why Her Royal Highness Alice rushed to the Mitsukoshi Chamber of Commerce non-stop after Princess Rotz's assassination. "

Alice immediately realized that she was too anxious just now, ignoring the impact of her actions, and was immediately embarrassed, so she had to stand up and apologize

"I'm sorry, President Gamma, but I didn't think about it. "

"I'll go down and explain the situation now. "

After saying that, Alice walked out of the president's office and walked downstairs to the gate of the Mitsukoshi Chamber of Commerce.

She looked at the crowd that had already blocked the Mitsukoshi Chamber of Commerce, and spoke

"I was in too much of a hurry just now, and I didn't explain to you why I came to the Mitsukoshi Chamber of Commerce. "

"As we all know, the Mitsukoshi Chamber of Commerce has operations in many countries, and the news channels are naturally relatively well-informed. "

"And I am friends with the president of the Mitsukoshi Chamber of Commerce, so I came here just now to explain the situation to her and ask her to assist me in investigating the real culprit!"

"Please don't speculate, let alone be used by people with intentions to discredit the Mitsukoshi Chamber of Commerce. "

When the onlookers heard Alice's words, they were stunned, and then began to disperse slowly.

Alice breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the crowd begin to disperse, then turned around and returned to the president's office.

After entering the door, Alice saw that Ron had already come over and was sitting on the couch.

Alice immediately stepped forward to say hello, and then asked

"Shadow Boss, you must have been with Princess Lotz just now, right?"

Ron looked at Alice with a smirk

"What, is Her Highness Alice here to ask the teacher about the guilt?"

Alice's momentum immediately weakened a little, and she smiled a little embarrassed

"Shadow Boss, you're mistaken. "

"I came all the way to thank you. "

"If you weren't by Princess Roze's side today, I don't know what would have happened. "

Ron waved his hand and said in a flat tone

"Needless to say, polite words. "

"Your Highness Alice should spend more time and energy on finding the real culprit. "

Alice noticed that Ron's attitude towards herself today was completely different from yesterday, and now realized that the matter of arranging for someone to contact the surrounding countries should have been known by the other party.

Alice couldn't help but feel a little chill in her back, on the one hand, she was surprised by the intelligence ability of the Shadow Garden, and on the other hand, she was worried that if the other party turned against her, then Midgar would really be struggling now.

"Shadow Boss, I ......".

Alice opened her mouth to say something, but found that her mind was blank and she didn't know what to say.

Ron didn't want to listen to Alice's explanation, so he got up and walked over to the other party and held out his hand to him

"I wish Her Royal Highness Alice to find the real culprit as soon as possible, and also to clean up the Garden of Shadows. "

Alice looked up at Ron, dumbfounded for a moment, and after looking at each other for a moment, she reached out and shook the latter's hand

"Rest assured, Shadow Chief. "

With that, Alice turned and left the president's office.

After getting into her own carriage, Alice couldn't help but lose her mind, and she felt like she was in a dream about what had happened in the last few days.

She couldn't accept that she could only be led by others in the face of everything, and a deep sense of frustration rose from the bottom of her heart.

"Alice, are you worthy of the position of the first princess of the Midgarh Kingdom as you are now?"

Alice looked at her saber and thought to herself

"Alexia's disappearance, the unknown monster summoned by Jeno, the assassination of Lotsdown Street, ......

".

"Have you taken care of any of these things?"

"Did you know even the slightest bit of any of these things in advance?"

"If you don't have the ability to solve problems, the intelligence system is paralyzed, and the most proud swordsmanship is not enough to see in the face of danger. "

"Alice, are you really up to the burden of protecting your country and your people?".

Alice kept asking herself in her heart, the more she asked, the more painful it became, she didn't want to admit that she was weak, but the reality made her have to admit it.

"Stronger ......

".

"I have to find a way to get stronger!".

Alice clenched her fists and began to think about the current situation

"Now that the Shadow Garden knows that I am going to contact other countries, they haven't made it clear, they probably want to wait for my next move, and my clear statement. "

"If I start to reach out to other countries in earnest, they're going to have a showdown, and we're going to be on the opposite side. "

"It would be the most unwise to fight the Shadow Gardens at this stage, after all, on the one hand, they can take action in the city of Midgar at any time, and on the other hand, I will definitely not find the strength to counterbalance them anytime soon. "

"Coupled with the fact that the Shadow Garden has helped me out of trouble again and again, no matter what their intentions are, I have to admit these personal feelings. "

"If I turn against them, it will be tantamount to announcing to the world that I am ungrateful, and public opinion at home and abroad will directly push Midgarard into a state of isolation. "

"There's also a good chance that other forces will lead Midgard into a battlefield. "

The more Alice thought about it, the more frightened she became

"I only now understand that the Shadow Garden must have known that someone would be doing trouble in Midgard during this time, so it gathered its strength to stay in the royal city. "

"This time and again, I gradually lost my choice. "

"Right now, I, or Midgar, have the only way to go by working with the Shadow Garden. "

Alice had Ron in her mind and muttered in a low voice

"It's you...... The leader of the Shadow Gardens ......

".
