When I got out of town, I headed to the castle gate first.
This is a fortified city surrounded by high walls. If there's a coup, it could be restricting access.
"Uh, I knew it"
The gate that leads outside was closed. A large number of soldiers are protecting it.
There are many guards on the fence, but most of them are turning their backs on this one.
He seems more alert to people coming in from outside than not letting people out in the city.
"Is this what it's been like in the morning?
I asked someone nearby.
"Right. It was like this when I woke up. He didn't tell me why. They just yelled at me to obey."
"I wonder whose orders that soldier is moving."
"We have a family name, but we don't know who issued the order. Only the driven infantry and the Kingsguard are distinguished because of their different uniforms, but that's the average soldier... right?"
"What's wrong?"
"Originally, the city gates are under the jurisdiction of the police force. They might find out more."
"I see, right. Thank you."
As for the police force, I've seen it several times before I got here.
A few of us are touring town, so we should run into them somewhere.
A short walk away from the castle gate found the crowd.
It seems a lot of people think the same thing, and someone found the police force and stuffed it.
"I have to deliver the load. If we can't get out of the city today, we won't make it."
Complaining with a face stuffed with cuts seems to be a pedestrian.
There are two loaded cars parked beside them.
Men who looked like merchants were anxiously watching the interaction.
"You can't. It's an emergency, so the authority of the castle gate was taken over."
"No! Who the hell is that?
Yes, that's what I wanted to hear.
"The battalion captain is giving me orders. It's Captain Aides that's actually moving. You were at the castle gate."
"Isn't it the infantry battalion that Lord Aides belongs to? Is that an instruction from Lenin Battalion Commander?"
"I don't know anything above. But I know you're going to go to a direct trial, but stop it. It's our job to get caught and put him in jail."
Was it a picture star, the pedestrian wandered.
"But if we talk..."
"I don't think it works with small money. This is a family matter. If you accidentally stick your head in, you're in big trouble."
"Is it a family name? I am also a merchant. A little, but the families know each other."
"You won't see me. The gate leading to the main hall is also closed. We can't even see what's going on inside. I think it's better if you stay quiet."
………………
You run out of measures, pedestrians push silence. In the meantime, the policemen have gone.
"I see, even the police force doesn't know what's going on at the main hall."
At present, no one in the city seems to have more information.
I wonder if the matter of the coup is still down.
If the coup had been decided before dawn, the gate leading to the main hall would have been closed at that time.
After that, if no one can come in or out, I can be satisfied with the current state.
If you close down to the city gates that lead outside, you don't have to worry about information leaking, and information from outside doesn't come in.
I guess the coup was a success to judge from now on.
For this reason, I am concerned that the security of the city gates will be strong.
The soldiers were watching outside. Maybe there's something outside the city to be vigilant about.
"But in this situation, you're not going to be able to get Mr. Ann out of here."
If you don't mind me knowing that I am Her Majesty's "shadow", that will hinder your future life. [M]
In the meantime, gathering information first.
I'll go back to the tavern once and tell Anne about the situation.
We already knew that the city gates had been closed as well as the gates leading to the main hall.
They said the people in and out were talking.
Ann was in disguise and properly, helping to plant the tavern.
It's time for the store to open.
"I'd better not tell anyone about Anne yet, as I'm unlikely to get out of the city no matter how"
Even a merchant who seems to be trustworthy doesn't know when or where the story will be leaked.
Ann convinced me when I explained that I should have him hiding here now.
"You're just not going to go around the house one by one and look for a home, and I'm going to leave it to the people who are here to know about Anne. When the gate opens, think about it."
"Yes, I'll leave everything to Leon"
I wonder why. Ann trusts me to the fullest extent.
I was pretty frigid last night, but I guess my mood changed.
"The tavern downstairs will gather nature and information, but I think I'll go to the tavern where soldiers often take their feet. Because unexpected information may come in."
"Isn't it dangerous"
"It's okay. They're all like me, and they want to know what happened. Ann needs to rest and recover."
"Leon, please be careful"
"Thank you, Ann"
When I said that, Ann turned bright red on her face. [M]
Apparently, it's lit. Was there anything I could do to light up the conversation?
"Then you're coming."
I left Ann's room and dived into the dark.
