The Noble Girl Living in Debt

Episode 51: Kumao Infiltrates!

I will soon reach the noble town.

Ask the driver of the carriage beforehand about the emergency and ask for the location of the Blondel family. When the location was easily found, he caught a two-wheeled horse-drawn carriage running around the city and headed for the Blondel family.

The Blondel family was surrounded by tall fences, as expected, and was closely guarded by guards around it. I don't want to think about sneaking in from somewhere.

Gibril was saying that the Knights were once part of a communications unit. Knights officials are more likely to buy grudges in various areas, so security at home is being overlaid.

He was frightened by the alertness seen through the window of the carriage.

The carriage stops in front of the main gate.

Bernard is in a hurry and pays the owner, hurrying to the gatekeeper for an agency.

If you showed your identification of the knights, you were immediately passed inside.

Walk a long distance from the gate to the entrance and finally arrive at the Blondel family.

At the entrance, a man like my servant asked me about my business.

Your hand was offered to give you the official document that you brought to the owner, but he refused because you were ordered to give it directly.

"If so, I'll guide you to my husband, so here."

"Thank you"

He said that Blondel's private room was on the third floor of the mansion.

Bernard continues with a nervous look.

On the first floor, the servants were working around without busy. I think it's the busiest time before dinner.

The second floor is a section where the family lives, where maids and maids were walking fast.

And finally we reach the third floor. There are few servants. He told his servant that Blondel preferred a quiet space, so he paid for him while he was in the mansion.

It was very convenient information.

Bernard taps the servant's shoulder lightly. He turned his jaw lightly with his fist.

The servant loses consciousness and falls into place.

He carried the servant's body with a medium flesh, entered the nearby room, and stripped his body.

The place where you enter is a bathroom.

The bathroom had traces of its use. I laugh at one person, thinking no one will be approaching for a while.

I tied both hands and feet of my servant with a rope and laid it in a bathtub where the hot water was drained so that I could not find it.

Then put on your clothes and disguise yourself.

Although they were about the same height, the knight Bernard and the servant man were very different. The outerwear felt tight and the pants were short.

I gave up wearing because the uniform of the Knights was the same color as my pants.

I searched the shelves in the dressing room, and found that there was a hairdressing agent, so that the hair that normally bounced and spread was neatly arranged. This is not invisible to the servant.

Bernard returns from the hurried corridor and descends to the first floor.

It was difficult to find Agnies in a large house. So Bernard takes a bold action.

I talked to one of the maids who was busy.

"--Hey"

"Yes, yes!"

Looking back at Bernard and confirming her clothes, the maid stretches her back straight.

The servants of the mansion also have a hierarchical relationship, and servants and other servants are considered to be senior employees who serve their masters directly. On the other hand, lower-working maids, etc., are called junior occupations, are not directly involved in the family, and are paid less than senior workers.

The maid who was suddenly called out by a senior servant was nervous. This is because it is rare that two people in different occupations are involved.

Furthermore, jurisdictions are divided for men and women, and they do not know each other because they do not know each other's faces. Thus, if he was dignified, he could not be seen.

"I just heard that a woman was brought in-"

"Oh, oh, sorry, I don't know."

"I'm sorry."

The first was a failure.

I think there is a possibility that the lower-ranking maid may not be informed.

It's dangerous to talk to the same senior maid, etc. They are daughters of a good family and may be acquainted.

While thinking about what to do next, walk around the hallway of the residence dignifiedly.

By chance, I see a maid coming out of the kitchen fast. He had a blue expression and had an expensive white pottery jug and tray containing cups.

It seemed suspicious behavior, such as something stuck, very panicked.

And it is not the direction of the stairs where the residents of the house live.

There was a possibility of carrying it to the guest, but Bernard followed the maid, disappearing his sign because there was no other option.

The maid cares about the surroundings and goes down the stairs leading to the basement at the end of the corridor.

It was not a mistake to appear to be suspicious.

Bernard was convinced that Agnes was there. Chasing the maid who went down to the basement in a hurry.

There was a candlelight on each step of the stairs, but it is lit dark because it is cheap.

Under the basement, there is a wine storage, which frowns on the musty smell.

I've heard that the moldy condition is a good environment for wine aging, but Bernard thought it was terrible.

The entrance was blocked by a bar, and a lookout man stood.

The maid is no longer there.

I do not know how many people are inside, so I judge that it is better not to rush.

For a while, think about what is best and get hungry.

Bernard walked normally before the lookout.

"Oh, hard work."

"!"

The opponent is a strong man, but he looks at his servant's clothes and takes the attitude of shrinking.

Fortunately, Bernard says he came to get wine at his master's command.

"Ah, no, today--"

"Oh, I know that case."

"But, no one can enter."

"My husband's order. Open it soon. I will report that you couldn't bring the wine because of you."

"I know!"

She said, the watchman unlocked me.

He had a lot of sweat on his forehead and he couldn't afford to look, but he wasn't even noticed because he was dim.

Bernard listens as he walks along the corridor-lined passages and explores the interior.

I heard a female voice from behind.

"-Sama, sama, please-please!"

It was a begging statement.

Bernard gently approaches.

If you walk straight, you can feel the signs of people nearby. Gently look into the state from behind.

Bernard takes a breather, recognizing the situation.

Agnes was there.

However, he is still lying on the floor.

And when I looked around closely, it seemed that blood was slightly scattered.

The maid is working hard on Agnes' body. Maybe Bernard thinks he is unconscious. At the same time, they jumped out to where they were.

"--Stop it! Don't shake your body!"

Bernard breaks in between the maid and Agnes and controls the action.

Agnes was bleeding from her forehead. First, change your posture and secure your airway. Then, grab your wrist and check your pulse.

The wound was still wet. It doesn't seem that much time has passed since the violence.

Tell the nearby maid to put out a handkerchief, and Bernard takes off his jacket and shirt.

He took the handkerchief as if he was taking it and hit it against Agnes's wound, tearing his shirt and wrapping it like a bandage.

Protest that if the unconscious Agnies is held sideways, the maid is not allowed to take him out of here.

"It's dangerous if you don't do this. You have to see a doctor once."

"But the master should never take it out of here."

"You know which is more important, human life or master's command!"

"Yes, but-"

We pushed away the body of the maid who was persistently calling out, and lifted Agnes' body in the staggered space-but momentarily, footsteps could be heard from behind.

It was a slow, generous step.

The metal sound of sloppy sound is the sound that Bernard is accustomed to listening to.

I have a bad feeling, and the sweat floating on my forehead runs down my cheeks.

Unexpectedly, I hugged Agnès strongly.

Determine your will and look back. Beyond that was Blondel himself.
