Me! Cleaner!

Chapter 370 Kidnapping Technology MAX

The boarding tower was attacked...how could I not know this?

"I think I know a little bit about it."

After looking at the princess who was chatting in his arms, Leon tentatively said:

"I heard from my friends in the police department that they have been working overtime like crazy recently. Many civilians have been pulled out to patrol every day, looking for the prisoners who attacked the boarding tower and the things lost in the Kingdom of Korok... What does this matter mean to you? Does it also have an impact?”

"It has a big impact!"

The princess nodded when she heard this, frowned slightly and said:

"The identity of the suspects who attacked the boarding tower has been basically determined. They should be the gangsters who assassinated me many times before and burned Lowther Arcade. And the damage they did in the past was not as troublesome as this one.

This time they made too much noise, which caused the Kingdom of Korok to keep putting pressure on us. If we still can't get satisfactory results within a month or two, normal trade will definitely be affected.

But... having the boarding tower burned down isn't entirely a bad thing. "

When she said this, the Queen sighed with a slightly complicated expression:

"Since the beginning of last year, I have been working with the Secretary of Defense to reorganize the military department, eliminate redundant troops, reduce miscellaneous expenses, and replace outdated weapons and equipment.

But even with the cooperation of your Lane family, it still didn't go very smoothly, and the resistance was greater than I imagined. However, as soon as the boarding tower incident came out, most of the reform proposals that I had been stuck in before were restarted. .

It is estimated that the heavily guarded boarding tower was burned, which finally made some people feel the crisis and had to give up some of their profits to ensure their own stability...

Haha, some people are like this. If they are not freezing or hungry, they will lie in the car with their eyes closed. Only when the air-conditioning comes in through the car window and the cold makes their lips turn blue, will they reluctantly get out of the car. Push the car forward! "

After complaining resentfully about the short-sightedness of the kingdom's top brass, the princess, who had been holding back her anger for the past few days, finally felt a little more comfortable.

"My dear, you are so kind~"

After shrinking into the warm embrace behind her to warm her body, Princess Veronica took the initiative to hold Leon's hand, raised her head and blinked:

"I have been holding these words in my heart for a long time, but it is not appropriate to say them to anyone. Fortunately, you can listen to me... When are you going to marry me?"

“…”

No, why did the topic come back again?

Feeling numb from the sudden urge to marry, Leon refused with a headache:

"Well, Your Highness Veronica, I have thought about it carefully these past few days and found that you and I are actually not suitable, so can the previous engagement be..."

"Okay."

? ? ?

What did you say? Did you agree? So happy?

After hearing Princess Veronica's straightforward reply, Leon couldn't help but feel slightly startled. While his heart felt slightly relieved, he was inevitably a little disappointed.

"As I said before, the final decision on our relationship is left to you, and I will not force it."

After slightly suppressing the smile on her face, the princess, who had been leaning on Leon's arms just now, sat up straight, with lowered eyebrows and an indifferent voice:

"In addition, even if I have a special status, I am still a normal woman and I also have self-esteem. Although I do have a crush on you and am willing to take the initiative to approach you again and again, I don't have any bottom line.

Leon, I never like to force people. Now that you have made a decision, then I...it’s time to let go. If at this time, I still persist in stalking you, it would be too shameful. I don’t like this kind of thing. Can't do it. "

“…”

Feel sorry…

Feeling the princess' slightly cold palm in his palm, Leon couldn't help but feel a deep sense of guilt in his heart.

After all, the cause of this incident is on her side. Although Princess Veronica also has other purposes, she has always been very proactive. On the contrary, it is herself, because of her status as a princess and the troubles this status brings. Push her out. So no matter how you calculate it, it is you who is sorry for her, not her who is sorry for herself.

"Excuse me…"

After a sincere apology, Leon, who tried to make amends, said:

"If in the future..."

"There is no future. You should never see me again in the future."

Princess Veronica turned her head slightly to avoid Leon's sight, then reached out to wipe the corners of her eyes, and whispered with tears in her eyes:

"If I don't have a marriage contract with you, then I will definitely be married off in the future, either to the Kingdom of Morna, the Kingdom of Hesse, or the Kingdom of Alesund... In short, I will not stay in the royal capital anymore.

In my future, there is a high probability that I will marry someone I have never met before, and then I will be left out by my future husband because of the interests between the kingdoms, and I will live alone in a palace that is colder than your heart.

If there is a war between the country and the kingdom where I married in the future, I may be humiliated and even be sent to the gallows by my own husband, cursing my miserable fate, and dying in despair and pain..."

“…”

Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!

"Don't worry, this has nothing to do with you. My miserable life is not caused by you, and you don't have to feel guilty. I...I just..."

After comforting Leon with a few words, big tears fell from the corners of Princess Veronica's eyes. She hurriedly reached out to wipe them, but for some reason, more and more tears fell on her face. .

"I just...just have some regrets..."

After realizing that she couldn't stop her tears, Veronica gave up covering her eyes, turned her head, pursed her lips and said tremblingly:

"Obviously... everything is obviously starting to get better. The reform of the Military Department has been advanced. I am also working on solving the problems of the Highway Department. The financial problems that have been stuck have recently begun to be solved.

As long as I continue step by step, I will have the opportunity to completely change the kingdom, making life less difficult for ordinary people, making the kingdom strong again, and no more people will die in the war.

After I leave, it will be difficult to find someone to take over all this. Joshua is ineffective. If the kingdom falls into his hands, it will probably be controlled by the finance minister and the queen, and will continue to become a tool for the nobles and big businessmen to exploit ordinary people...

Wow...it's obviously...it's only a little bit close! "

“…”

"It's okay, you don't have to worry about it."

After wiping the corners of her eyes again, the tearful princess clenched her fists and said softly with red eyes:

"No one will blame you. You have your own life. There is no need to marry a very beautiful woman you don't love for the sake of other people's happiness.

Leon, you don’t have to feel guilty. Whether it’s me who will be alone for the rest of my life, or those who lost the chance to change their destiny because of my departure, we will not blame you, you...

Why are you holding my hand? Do you regret it? Do you want to hold hands with me again and walk through this life? "

“…”

I'm really impressed with you... How do you manage to talk so much without changing your expression?

With a dark face, he opened the princess's fingers and snatched out the wrinkled onion slices inside. Leon complained with a headache on his face:

"Your Highness, can't you be more sincere..."
