Chapter 1934 Carter Horton’s Methods
Emily is the kind of girl who is very punctual. Unless something happens, she will never come home late. However, before returning home late, she will definitely notify her family. However, I have not heard anything about AI since I came back here at noon. There was talk of Millie not coming back because she had something to do, and when cooking, no one said anything like 'Leave a dinner for Emily'.
This situation is very abnormal. Why hasn't Emily come back? Is it because of her personality problems that she was isolated by her family and had to move out of the tree house?
But this is impossible!
I know Cagalli's stubborn temper. Even if others ignore Emily, she will still regard her as a goddess!
However, look at Cagalli's expression. She is calm and composed, without the slightest hint of loss or absent-mindedness. What is going on?
Looking at the busy people coming and going, I tentatively asked Cagalli: "Where's Emily? Why haven't I seen her all this time?"
"She's gone" Cagalli looked a little lonely when she answered.
"Gone?" I panicked: "Where have you gone?"
"Ai Rui City."
As soon as I heard the words 'Ai Rui City', I immediately thought of Carter Horton and his romantic son. Then I thought of the Fairy Queen who used Emily as a pawn and planned to use her beauty to seduce Carter. The plan of the eldest son of the family.
My heart suddenly felt empty and desolate like a dry well that had been drained of water. Then, I became furious: "Why did she go to Airui City? Who gave the order?"
Maybe it was because my tone seemed a little impatient, or maybe it was because my volume suddenly increased. The hall suddenly became silent, and even the temperature dropped several degrees.
It was obviously the first time Cagalli saw me angry. Her eyes became surprised and fearful. She stayed there for a long time before she said calmly: "It's an order from Her Majesty the Queen."
Seeing that she was a little scared, I quickly calmed down my momentum and my tone became much gentler: "Which Queen is it?"
Cagalli, who had been staring at me, rubbed her eyes vigorously, tilted her head and looked at me several times, and then returned to her usual tone: "Of course it is Her Majesty the Elf Queen."
"Huh?" I looked puzzled: "Why does Her Majesty the Elf Queen want Emily to go to Airei City?"
"Don't you know?" Cagalli came closer to me, held my face and looked at it for a while. Then she felt relieved and punched me hard. Then she breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Really, I was scared to death." What happened to you just now, you suddenly became so scary, I even doubted whether the you just now was the real you!"
He took Cagalli into his arms, pinched her cheek, and said with a smile: "Of course I am me, who else could it be? By the way, you haven't told me yet, why did the Elf Queen send Emily? Ai Rui City?"
"Isn't this a matter of course?" Cagalli said: "Emily is the personal bodyguard of Her Majesty the Elf Queen. When the Elf Queen sets off to Airui City, she will naturally go with her~"
"Let's drive to Ai Rui City?" I became even more confused: "You're not staying in your hometown. What are you doing there?"
"The Zephyr Championship!" Cagalli pinched my nose and said with a funny look on her face: "Don't tell me, you don't know that Airui City is currently hosting the Zephyr Championship!"
"Japanese Wind Championship?!" I was suddenly startled, and then I slapped my forehead hard: "Hey, I forgot about this. Oh, by the way, why didn't you go to participate?"
"I won't go to that crappy place in Airei City!" Cagalli curled her lips. He said disdainfully: "Not only are the royal family hypocritical and the nobles cunning, but even ordinary civilians are very unfriendly. What am I doing there? Waiting to be ridiculed and insulted?"
"What about the others?"
"The strange girl will definitely not go because you didn't sign up, and the short-breasted cat won't go either. She is as unpopular with those guys as I am."
"Wait a minute!" Barbara suddenly poked her head out and said with a rebellious look on her face: "Don't talk nonsense, it's not that I'm not popular, it's that I hate those guys very much, so I won't join in the fun!"
"Okay, okay" Cagalli waved her hand: "I know, it's true, hum!"
Then, Cagalli explained the reasons why others were unwilling to go to Airey City. In other words, no one in the entire Fearless Guild liked Airey City.
Anyway, it’s not that I don’t like Air City, but I don’t like those extreme racists who hold prejudices, and most of the members of the Carter family.

"It's a pity that the Carter family provided a reward for the Zephyr Championship. I don't know what the first prize will be."
"It's probably going to be the lowest level magic weapon," Yura said softly while lying on the sofa.
I couldn't help but be surprised: "You can guess this?"
"Half of it is a guess, and the other half is based on the actual situation," Yura said.
"What actual situation did you base your judgment on?" I asked puzzled.
"Just when you were going to rob the tomb, I received a letter from Yuffie, saying that the family ordered us to go back immediately, otherwise we would be expelled." She sneered and shrugged: "That kind of family, Anyway, I was fed up with it. I was expelled when I was expelled. I didn’t care, but Yuffie was very concerned about being expelled from the family, so she wanted to find out through her connections with the Morris family. It turned out that it was okay not to do so. , I found out and it made Yuffie very angry."
Speaking of the time when Yuffie was angry, Yura smiled mischievously: "My family, as you know Xiaoyi, is a branch of the Carter family. They ordered Yuffie and me to go back, and they actually wanted to send us back." We will marry two wealthy businessmen who have recently become great nobles, so as to alleviate the shortfall within the family."
She sneered and said: "Haha, Xiaoyi, tell me, the collateral family is already this poor, how much better can the direct family be?"
She reached out to take the cake handed over by Lilea and took a small bite. As she chewed, she said: "The Carter family has begun to decline. This is an indisputable fact. Those brainless idiots not only don't think about how to stabilize people's hearts and develop Instead of spending a lot of manpower and material resources on economic construction, we are trying to snatch the right to host the Japanese Wind Championship. This is simply a joke!”
"That can't be said. The Zephyr Contest is also a profitable business. It can not only create huge income, but also create a lot of gimmicks to attract more adventurers and businessmen. The most important thing is that most people Still adhering to the concept of worshiping the strong, as long as a strong person can appear in Airui City, even if he is not the first, as long as it is enough to attract the audience and stimulate their admiration, then the Carter family will make good use of this strong person. It can at least be guaranteed that within two years, there will be peace in Airui City.”
"Carter Horton played this card very well by using a huge short-term expenditure in exchange for at least two years of stability and tranquility."
