Under the cold moonlight, the girl changed her slow and restrained movements, and suddenly drew out her sword extremely quickly, and then sprinted towards the boy at a speed that was almost hard to see.

Her movements were smooth and natural, just like dancing steps. They were so beautiful that Aigron was dazzled for a moment.

But soon he sensed the terrible danger and instinctively retreated.

"Don't even think about running away!" A contemptuous smile appeared on the girl's face, and she continued to chase without mercy.

Damn it! Aiglon couldn't help but curse in his mind.

He couldn't figure out where this girl came from, and she was so powerful. What made him speechless was that the two became enemies in a misunderstanding.

So what should we do next?

Explain it well?

It seemed that he could no longer give her a convincing explanation.

With your hands tied?

That's even more impossible.

A desperate fight...?

Putting aside the risks, fighting to the death for such an inexplicable reason is really ridiculous.

However, no matter what, your own safety comes first. If someone threatens your life, then you must respond with the most drastic means, no matter what the reason is.

Since escaping, he has always carried a pistol in his arms. Since the two sides have started a war, he doesn't have so many worries.

However, this is obviously not a good time to shoot.

Aigron was relieved and ran back along the path he had just taken.

He has been trained for a long time, and his reaction speed and running speed are naturally faster than ordinary people, so on the bumpy dirt road, the girl chased the boy with a sword and ran farther and farther.

Soon, Eggron ran back to the edge of the woods, leaped over the barriers of the fence, and then rushed into the bushes, hiding himself in the darkness of the woods.

The girl stopped by the fence, because she was running all the way just now, her face was slightly flushed, and she looked at the direction where the young man had just disappeared, unwillingly.

"Do you have the guts to do bad things but don't have the guts to accept sanctions?" she asked angrily. "Come out!"

"I'll say it again, I'm not a bandit, you misunderstood me!" Aigron hid behind a tree and quietly stared at the girl not far away.

He had taken cover, put some distance between the two men, and now had a leisurely opportunity to draw his gun and fire.

In other words - now he has the initiative.

In order to prevent the other party from misunderstanding, he specially reminded the girl. "I don't want to fight you desperately, but if you insist on doing something to me, then I'm not polite! I have a pistol on me, if you continue to threaten me with force, then I will shoot!"

"Then you shoot! If you shoot, someone will come and help me catch you, right?" Agnes showed no fear on her face, but it was obvious that her footsteps stopped, and she used the fence to cover her body. "He also said that he is not a robber - breaking into other people's homes in the middle of the night with a gun. Is it possible that he is a good person?"

Aigron was speechless.

He found that in the current situation, no matter how he explained, it seemed difficult to escape suspicion.

what to do? Aiglon frowned.

The other party seemed to have no intention of retreating and stayed here to confront him.

The longer time goes on, the more troublesome it becomes, and I can't care about that much anymore.

Then fulfill your wish...

He raised the muzzle of his gun and fired into the sky.

"boom!"

There was a sudden loud noise in the quiet woods and empty open spaces.

Almost immediately after, there was a little commotion in the originally quiet farmhouse, and soon, several figures rushed out of the farmhouse and rushed to the place where the gunshots were fired.

The leader was none other than the owner of the farmhouse, the former Second Lieutenant Favre of the Swiss Army, and following him was the servant who had just chatted with Aigron.

The two of them rushed to the side of the woods and looked at the girl hiding behind the fence in shock.

And Aigron also walked out of the shadows, holding a pistol and looking warily at the place where the girl was hiding, and then joined two of his followers.

Agnes opened her eyes wide, completely confused about what happened. The owner of the farm had no hostility towards this young man, and stood with the servant?

Could it be that this is a whole band of bandits who have all colluded and are just waiting for the young noble couple to be caught and make a big profit?

Although she was panicking, she could only hold the sword tightly in her hand and look at the three men opposite her with fearlessness.

Her sister is now in danger, and she must do everything she can to protect her.

"Are you okay?" Lieutenant Favre looked at the young man and asked nervously.

"I'm fine." Aigron shook his head slightly, and then looked at the girl opposite. "Who is she? Do you know her?"

"This is Madame's sister, Ms. Agnes de Norderleen!" Before Lieutenant Favre could reply, the servant quickly explained, "Your Majesty, sir, don't shoot! It's all a misunderstanding!"

It turned out that he was not an outsider... Aigron was secretly relieved.

At the moment when he shot to call people, Aigron had already made up his mind not to let this sudden enemy escape, even killing people if necessary.

Now it seems that there is no need to make cruel and ruthless choices.

"Explain to her that I am not a bandit who sneaked in." Aiglon pursed his lips.

He returned to his usual calmness. Now the status of the two people has been completely reversed, and he is the one who has the full initiative.

Captain Favre was a little surprised at first, but looking at the expressions of the two people, he probably understood something.

"Miss, don't get me wrong, this is my relative, who is temporarily staying at my house. So when you asked me if there were any other guests, I said no... This is all a misunderstanding, I'm sorry to make you a false alarm! "

Second Lieutenant Favre had served in the Imperial Army for many years. Of course he could speak French, but he always had a Swiss-German accent. Now, because of nervousness, his voice changed, and there was a lot of babbling, which Agnes struggled to understand.

It's all a misunderstanding...?

Agnes's originally tense body relaxed a little, but she still looked at the three people opposite her in surprise.

"Miss Nordlyen, you should believe me now, right?" Aigron lowered his hand and lowered his gun, indicating that he had no hostility. "I don't want to get involved in an inexplicable battle. I was just walking, and I ran into this gentleman by the way, so I just had a casual chat. I am very interested in France, so I asked him something about France. Everything It's that simple--"

In order to increase his persuasiveness, he forced out a gentle smile, but under the cold and dim moonlight, this smile looked a bit sinister.

The girl was obviously confused. She didn't know whether she should believe what this young man said.

"Agnes!" At this moment, an anxious call came from not far away, and then a young man and woman in disheveled clothes ran over. "Is it okay!"

Aigron watched as a young woman with long blond hair ran up to the girl and hugged her tightly.

It seems that this should be Edgar de Treville's wife Alice.

Then he looked at the blond young man next to the woman.

This young man has short hair and an extraordinary appearance, but he looks like a willful childish person, and he seems to be a young man who doesn't care about anything.

At the same time, the young man was also looking at him, and he obviously recognized him at a glance.

Haha, I originally planned to meet Edgar tomorrow, but I didn't expect to see him in the early hours of this morning, and when both of them were in such a mess.

Life is really full of surprises.

"Mr. de Treville, it's a pleasure to meet you." Aigron put aside other distracting thoughts, walked up to the young man, and then calmly stretched out his hand to him, "Your sister-in-law just thought that I was taking advantage of you. The robbers who came in at night chased me here."

Edgar finally understood what had happened, and an inexplicable embarrassment appeared on his face.

"Uh... Sir, I'm sorry..." He held Agron's hand and apologized repeatedly to the young man, "Agnes was too persistent in wanting to protect us, so there was a terrible misunderstanding. Please forgive me. Her rashness.”

Then, he turned to look at the girl, "Agnes, you have caused a big trouble. Please apologize to this gentleman quickly!"

The expression on Agnes's face became very strange, and she finally believed that she had almost hunted down an innocent man as a robber.

Although the light was very dim now, everyone could see that her face turned red.

After hesitating for a moment, Agnes withdrew her sword, then walked to Agron with her head lowered, and bowed to apologize to him.

"I'm sorry, sir... I... I... was too rude to you just now. Please forgive me for my offense!"

She was deeply ashamed of herself and realized that she had caused so much trouble to everyone, so she no longer dared to be stubborn. She just lowered her eyebrows and looked at the dirt diagonally below, not daring to look at anyone.

Now she really looked like a weak girl, no longer as sharp and awe-inspiring as before.

Seeing her apologize so sincerely, Aigron's original anger also dissipated.

Since everyone is on their own and has admitted their mistakes, there is nothing to pursue.

"It doesn't matter. I think it's normal for Miss Nordlyon to have some misunderstandings under the circumstances just now." He shrugged, "Okay, since the misunderstanding has been resolved now, let's not stay here any longer. It’s already very late, let’s go back and rest, and we’ll talk about anything tomorrow.”

"Yeah, let's all disperse." Edgar also echoed, and then looked at Agnes. "Okay, Agnes, please be more careful this time."

Then, he looked at the young man again, "Sir, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep for a while after being woken up. How about we drink two cups? Let's resolve all the unpleasantness just now in a cup. By the way, Let's pass the time by chatting about young people."

Since he was like this, Aigron certainly understood.

"Ok, no problem."

Seeing that Aiglon agreed, Edgar also looked back at his wife.

"Then Alice, I want to have two drinks with this friend. You can take Agnes to rest first."

Alice hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded and agreed. "Okay, drink less, I don't want you lying next to me smelling of alcohol!"

Then, looking at Agnes's dejected look, Alice hugged her sister again, and then gently patted her sister on the shoulder to comfort and encourage her.

"Agnes, don't be discouraged. Although you did something wrong this time, your intention was good. Edgar and I are very grateful for your intention... It doesn't matter, since this gentleman has accepted your offer. Apologize, then everything is over. Next time you encounter a similar situation, just pay attention."

"Thank you, Alice." Agnes got great encouragement from her sister's relief and finally regained her spirits. "I will pay attention to it in the future..."

After saying that, the group of people walked towards the farmhouse together, and Aiglon was also ready to accept Edgar de Treville's audience.

"Sir, what is your name?" Alice suddenly asked the young man just before entering the farmhouse.

"Memmingen." Egglund blurted out without thinking, "Franz Memmingen."

"Oh...Okay." Alice nodded slightly, then curtsied to Agron, "Mr. Memmingen, I'm sorry that Agnes's reckless behavior just now has caused you trouble."

"You're too polite. I told you, it's nothing." Aigron replied with a smile.

Then, the group of people split up. Agron, Lieutenant Favre, Edgar and others went to the living room, while Alice and Agnes went to their respective bedrooms.

"Alice, I'm sorry...I've embarrassed you..."

Agnes grabbed the quilt tightly and covered her face with it, looking extremely aggrieved. Her voice was much duller because of the quilt, "Things were so strange today, so I thought wrongly and caused such a disturbance. .I am so damned...How could I shame you!"

"Agnes, take a good rest, you should be exhausted today, right?" Alice sighed softly, and then whispered to her sister, "All this is not your responsibility, at least not entirely. It seems that we did not know it. We're part of a conspiracy... except it's not what we first imagined."

"Conspiracy?!" Agnes suddenly became nervous again, pulled back the quilt and looked at her sister again, "What's wrong? Is there any danger?"

"Don't take it seriously, I just said it casually. What a silly kid!" Alice couldn't help laughing, and then pinched her cheek.

But her smile looked very forced and thoughtful.

"What's wrong, Alice? You seem to have something on your mind." Agnes looked at her sister and felt a little strange.

Alice came back to her senses and quickly covered up her gaffe with a smile. Only her eyes still hid a little nervousness and panic.

"It's nothing, go to sleep, Agnes...you must be exhausted today."

Then, she murmured under her breath, "Edgar, just have fun..."
