Miss Witch doesn't want to be a diva
Chapter 526 Gift from the ‘October Star of the South’
The summer breeze of June blew, and the white curtains in the room fluttered up and down from time to time. Not far away, a black-haired girl was lying on a large mat and taking a nap on the floor. Occasionally, the sunlight from the curtain fell beside her, and the reflected light made her face clear.
Time passed quietly, and the sunlight was particularly quiet in the gentle summer breeze. Occasionally, some talking and laughter could be heard in the distance outside the window, but they were always very vague, like the nostalgic fragments in memory.
"Ding Dong--"
The wooden pendant clock opened, and the sleeping white kite inside was pushed out and then fell. The bird was about the size of a hen, and there were a few snow-white crown feathers on its head, which was very beautiful.
It flapped its wings, first landed on the table, and then flew in front of the girl, walking back and forth several times, and then tried to pull her clothes to make the sleeping girl open her eyes.
Heshia rubbed her eyes, slowly sat up, and checked the time.
"It's 2:40 in the afternoon." She said, then stood up, tidied up her skirt which was a little messy from sleeping, then stepped barefoot on the mat, put on sandals, and went to the bathroom to wash her face.
"Good afternoon, Master Tilan." The two red maids guarding outside the corridor bowed and saluted when they saw her coming out.
After washing her face, Tilan came to the first floor of the mansion hall, drank some water first, and then asked the maid who was responsible for arranging the schedule.
"Did anyone come to see me today?"
"There was a call in the morning from the staff of the Tribunal. They invited you to attend a small meeting tomorrow morning. It is said that several other singers were invited together. The specific content is to discuss the security plan afterwards."
"It should be the newly appointed minister." Tilan thought about the senior official she saw on TV the day before yesterday.
"What about the others? How is the school going recently?"
"Because of the previous incident, most of the courses for you and Blanche and other singing ladies have been suspended. The temporary solution given by the school is that a special tutor will come to the singing ladies' residence every morning to teach until the end of this semester."
"In other words, let us try not to go out, right?" Tilan thought for a while.
"Yes, if Lady Tilan insists on going out, it's okay, but you need to report to the school and relevant personnel so that they can prepare in advance."
"Forget it, I guess their preparation is to get a large group of people to follow them around for protection. It's better to stay at home." The girl shook her head while drinking the clear flower tea.
For this situation, Tilan has gradually gotten used to it this month. Anyway, since Blanche's accident, most of their courses have been suspended, and they have been asked to stay in school as much as possible and not go out casually.
Especially in the first few days after the incident, a huge wave was set off in the Federation. Many people who did not know the truth, were curious, excited, and extreme rushed to the school. Some said they wanted to see if the other singers in the school were healthy, and some said they wanted to check the security of the Golden Flame Flower School to avoid similar incidents.
In short, the whole school was on high alert that week. The fully armed exoskeleton military police arrived and directly blocked the campus.
In this case, classes were naturally not available, and most students were forced to take a vacation and could only play in the dormitory.
Similarly, as a singer, Tilan was also required to stay in the mansion, but she was different from ordinary students. As a singer, during that period, there were media interviews and officials visiting almost every day.
In order to convey the safety of several singers to the residents of many star fields and calm their emotions, the invited media reporters also specially filmed a lot of her life clips and living environment. This process inevitably requires some posing and repetitive processes, and the coming and going of various people also makes it difficult for her life to be quiet.
More than half a month passed like this. With Blanche's awakening and the easing of the situation, Tilan's life slowly returned to peace.
"In addition, Lord Tilan, there was another express gift delivered at noon today. In fact, it should have arrived a few days ago, but it was pulled over by experts for strict inspection before it was released."
"What is the gift?" Tilan looked up with a little curiosity, and the slender long leg under the skirt was slightly raised and stepped on the horizontal railing under the chair.
"It's a grand piano sent by the 'Southern October Star' Business Alliance."
"Piano." She didn't really need musical instruments, but since it was a gift from someone else, she might as well go and take a look.
"Where is it?"
"It's in the music room on the east side that you often use."
"Well, then I'll go and take a look." She stood up.
Under the guidance of the maid, Tilan soon saw the specially customized grand piano. It was made of dark blue chrome and almost every detail was polished to the extreme. The side of the piano cover had a hollowed-out star and moon logo, which was just the right embellishment, like a perfect work of art.
Her fingers stroked the piano surface with broken silver stars, smooth and comfortable. When Tilan sat in front of the piano, she could see a line of small inscriptions in front of her.
'Dedicated to our lovely and beautiful Heshia Tilan. '
Then the maid handed over a gift list with a white border and a blue background. The first page was an artistic photo of the piano, which was located in front of the black silk cloth, and was particularly elegant and beautiful. Then it was introduced what materials the piano was made of, how many parts and craftsmanship were used, and which masters participated in the production and debugging. Then it talked about the meaning and wishes of each shape and pattern.
Then at the end of the page are the names and company logos of the sponsors of the piano, including many big names in the southern star regions and well-known local giant companies. Some of the names even Tilan feels a little unfamiliar.
"Who are these?" She asked the maid beside her curiously.
"The 27 companies that signed are all well-known giant companies in the southern star region, and their industrial focus is also mostly there. In addition, the names listed separately in the front are also mostly well-known figures in the southern star region. Some of them are masters of the extraordinary faction, some are chairmen of the local business union, and some are big figures in the religious world."
Among these names, Tilan is most familiar with Madam Lianxin, followed by Mr. Songxue of the "Federal Artists Association", because she met the two when she was in Edes Academy.
"In addition to the gifts, did they say anything else?" Tilan thought about it.
"No."
"Well, I know." Tilan sat in front of the piano and tried to play it.
A simple melody jumped out from the fingertips, and the sound of the piano was soothing and pleasant, like a fairy flying through the forest.
A few minutes later, Tilan stopped, picked up the gift list book on the side again, and opened it to take a look. It must be said that they must have spent a lot of thought on it. Even the thin book in the hand was particularly exquisite.
At the end, Tilan's eyes stayed on the company logos signed by the names, and his thoughts floated.
Probably because of the support and goodwill triggered by Blanche's incident.
Because of Blanche's assassination, the social emotions of the northwest star regions of the Federation were ignited. Various marches and protests made the Federal Central Council anxious, and also made many people notice the huge political power hidden in the new generation of singers.
Before, although Blanche's identity was slightly special, it did not attract too much attention. After all, she became a singer not long ago and was quite ordinary in the same singer circle. She could not be called gifted and excellent. However, this incident really made people realize the extremely special identity of this singer.
If, if, if, this singer really died in the attack that day, the senior officials of the Central Council dared not imagine what kind of extreme emotions would erupt in the Northwest Star Region. Even if they had the strength to suppress it by force, it would also mean that their control over the Northwest Star Region would be greatly reduced, and they would even have to prepare for decades to deal with emergencies, which would undoubtedly consume a lot of manpower, material resources and energy, and weaken the prestige and legitimacy of the Central Council.
After understanding this, it is not difficult to understand the importance that all parties attach to the new generation of singers.
Putting down the pages in her hand, Tilan looked at the still bright sunshine outside, thinking about whether to read a book or take a walk in the yard. Anyway, there are no classes recently, so it is rare to relax.
After considering for a while, she still chose to take a walk and bask in the sun.
...
The next day, in the morning.
Riding a special hovercraft, Tilan came to the security command building on one side of the school, where federal official military police are stationed all year round, and there is also an office for the exclusive trial court.
After arriving at the location, the car door opened. Before Tilan came out, a row of soldiers wearing gray-green exoskeleton armor stood on both sides of the road leading to the building. They looked solemn and murderous. They didn't look like troops stationed in the central area all year round, but rather like they were transferred from a hot war zone.
Under the protection of four patrol officers in dark blue uniforms, Tilan walked into the building, then entered the elevator and gradually came to the scheduled conference room.
The space here is not large. Hundreds of black chairs are arranged in a fan shape, facing the central screen and podium. When Tilan came in, two singers had already arrived.
Pulin and Odney sat on both sides of the fan shape, symmetrical but not close. Tilan thought about it and chose the side close to Odney, but when she came in, she still greeted Pulin first.
Shortly after sitting down, Orles and Shui Yanqing also came. Ten minutes later, Blanche and a man with short black hair entered at the same time.
After he came in, he first politely helped Blanche find a seat and then walked up to the podium.
"Hello, Miss Divas. I am the new head of the Divas Supervision Department of the Tribunal, Xian Ke. From now on, I will be responsible for your safety." This man is very capable and not at all dragging his feet.
"I think the Miss Divas are aware of what happened not long ago. I am also deeply sorry for this. Because of the negligence of my former colleagues, everyone was frightened and panicked."
"I will adjust the previous strategy in the future to protect your daily travel and life in a safer way..." Then he clapped his hands, and a staff member walked into the meeting room and put a metal briefcase on the table.
"Miss Blanche was able to survive this time. I have to say that the protective props she carried with her played a great role. In order to continue to carry forward this advantage, I also specially applied for funds to equip the Miss Divas with new protective props."
"The first one is the 'Golden Rabbit Pocket Watch' contributed by the well-known giant enterprise 'Alice's Pocket Watchmaker'." After saying that, he took out an exquisitely made pocket watch from the silver metal box.
The outer shell is made of gold-plated silver-edged metal. There is a gorgeous gemstone lens on the front, through which you can see the rotating hands inside. The outer edge is wrapped with rose vine patterns, and the back of the pocket watch is engraved with a rabbit pattern wearing a hat decorated with flowers.
"Even for Alice's Watchmaker, this highest-level 'Golden Rabbit Pocket Watch' is extremely rare and precious, with less than ten pieces supplied each year. Its emergency response system can not only buy time at the most dangerous moment, but also give other items more room to play."
"When it is fully activated, it can pause time for nearly six seconds, which is enough to change too many things."
"The second item is the 'Violet Protection Gem' provided by the giant enterprise 'Valanlo Hometown'."
After speaking, he put on gloves and took out a beautiful and gorgeous deep purple gem pendant, which can be conveniently hung on a necklace, bracelet, or waist.
"After induction, this special gem can provide a frozen gem barrier, blocking and reflecting all kinds of energy weapons, and even soul consciousness attacks can be blocked. It can also serve as a warning for various ghost consciousnesses."
"The third item is the 'Star Track Silver Eye' provided by the giant enterprise 'Groni Tower'."
He took out a silver metal sphere similar to an eyeball, then opened his hand, and the sphere floated up. The precision mechanical eye inside began to rotate, and several surrounding rings appeared around it.
"Compared with the first two items, this item can be said to be an attack and defense tool. It will automatically trace the source of the attack, launch a counterattack, and actively attack and block possible attacks. It has many functions, including but not limited to deploying mercury barriers, isolating air, launching crisis beacons, shielding interference signals, countering electronic attacks, etc. Its built-in high-level AI can respond to various situations autonomously."
After introducing the three items, the six singers present looked at each other and nodded slightly. After all, they were all very good items, and there was no need for them to object.
After that, the new minister continued to talk about the adjusted security plan, and as the introduction went deeper, the people present gradually discovered that it was completely different from the past.
"... In other words, in the future, when we carry out various activities, we must try our best to arrange and reserve positions for the staff of the Tribunal, is that right?" Orles frowned.
"That's right, this is also for the safety of the singers."
"But in the past, didn't you do all these in secret? If we have to arrange all these, aren't you too unprofessional?"
Orles objected. If they had to arrange all these, their future life would be too depressing. They would have to consider bringing a group of people from the Tribunal wherever they go.
"I understand your rejection of this change, but now is different from the past. I think the singers should not have forgotten what happened not long ago."
"Although it failed, it also aroused the hidden ambitions of many people. We will all face extremely severe challenges in the future." He tried to persuade the singers in front of him.
In this regard, the singers present did not like it very much, but some remained silent, while others directly started to fight.
"I think the Minister has done his best, but if you openly insert these matters into our lives, it will cause us great trouble and great psychological pressure."
"Knowing that our lives are secretly protected is completely different from being observed and surrounded by people all the time."
"I agree that you should add more people, but please follow the convention and don't insert too much into our private lives. After all, we are not little white rabbits kept in captivity by the court. Even if it is dangerous to live outside, we should leave it to our own decision. If we really encounter a difficult situation, I think the fellow singers present will also actively seek help from the court."
"You are taking advantage of this incident to deprive us of our freedom, which is unconstitutional."
In the later stage of the meeting, the strict policy led by the new minister and several singers caused a lot of conflicts and contradictions, but even so, the new minister said that it would still be enforced.
"Since I have taken this position, I must be responsible for it, even if the singers are unhappy, it will not change." In the end, he also revealed his inner thoughts without any concealment.
This idea is not just his, but also a long-standing ideological dispute within the Inquisition. Many people believe that the members of the Inquisition should not be too indulgent and obedient to the current singers, but should be strictly regulated.
The final argument is -
Are you loyal to the will of Her Highness Amyulalin, or are you obedient to the dispatch of the current Federation singers?
In the eyes of the new minister, he is undoubtedly the former, because loyalty must be absolute.
