After that, Fang Zheng drove the girls to the Crimson Imperial Capital Heildam.

but……

"I'm very sorry, Mr. Fang Zheng. The president is currently out of town on official business and won't be back in the short term."

Standing in front of Fang Zheng, the maid with short purple hair spoke to him respectfully.

"Oh, that's fine. I'm free anyway, so could you help me make an appointment?"

"Of course no problem... please wait a moment."

After saying this, the purple-haired maid turned and went into the office, while Fang Zheng leaned against the door and yawned boredly. He was not surprised that Irina was not in the imperial capital. After all, he had not greeted her when he came. It would be best if he could see her, but it didn't matter if he couldn't. He could still meet her by making an appointment, right?

After a long while, the purple-haired maid came out again.

"I'm sorry to have kept you waiting, Mr. Fang Zheng. The president will be back in the capital in five days, and she will meet you on the same day."

"Oh, it's not that urgent actually... Oh, there's one more thing."

Having said this, Fang Zheng seemed to remember something and snapped his fingers.

“Please help me ask Ms. Irina if I can take Alyssa out for a trip.”

"…Are you referring to Miss Alisa?"

Hearing this, the purple-haired maid's eyes suddenly flickered, while Fang Zheng nodded as if he didn't care at all.

"Yes, my little girl has been chatting with her recently, and she complained about being idle at home all day and wanted to travel together, so I asked her if it was okay. If it was okay, I would take her out to play for a few days and then come back to meet Ms. Irina."

“…”

This time, the purple-haired maid did not answer immediately. She just looked at Fang Zheng carefully. After all, Fang Zheng's tone was too relaxed, as if he was a familiar friend of Irina's family. But the purple-haired maid knew very well that there was no friendship between the two.

But would anyone just say something like that casually?

Alyssa is the daughter of the Lanefort Chamber of Commerce and the future heir of the Chamber of Commerce. The Lanefort Chamber of Commerce is a powerful financial group that controls the economic lifeline of the empire. As for Starlight Technology... the purple-haired maid has only heard of it a little bit, but no matter what, the other party came directly to the door and said that they wanted to take the daughter of the largest financial group in the empire out to play. Is this crazy? Or do they have ulterior motives?

"I'm so sorry, Mr. Founder."

The purple-haired maid finally made up her mind. A smile appeared on her face and she looked at Fang Zheng.

"The president is currently busy with work, so there is no way for the time being..."

However, before the purple-haired maid could finish her words, Fang Zheng interrupted her excuses.

"I'm asking for her opinion, not yours, Miss Maid."

“——!!!”

At this moment, when being stared at by Fang Zheng, the purple-haired maid trembled suddenly. It was as if she was facing an indescribable terrifying beast. Even her heart began to beat violently.

"Since you want to take me out to play, you must get the guardian's opinion. But Miss Maid, it seems that you have no say in this matter."

On the surface, Fang Zheng didn't seem to have changed at all. He just smiled and looked elegant like a gentleman. However, the maid felt an extreme sense of trembling, as if the person in front of her was not just an ordinary person, but a terrifying existence like the emperor of an empire who had power over the government and controlled the world. Even if he didn't do anything, just a look or a move could make people tremble.

"...Yes, please wait."

Finally, the maid lowered her head and spoke, then she turned around and walked into the office again.

This time, the maid took a long time to come out, and then she forced a smile at Fang Zheng.

"I'm sorry to have kept you waiting, Mr. Fang Zheng. Ms. Irina has agreed to your proposal, but please wait one more day because we also need to prepare for the young lady's trip..."

"It's okay. I just happened to be taking my little girls around the capital."

Fang Zheng waved his hand, as if he didn't take this little thing to heart at all.

"Then I will take Miss Alisa to visit you tomorrow morning..."

"Well, that's fine. We'll be staying at the Sky Hotel in the Garnier district, so I'll trouble you."

After saying this, Fang Zheng smiled and nodded to the purple-haired maid, then turned and left. Only when Fang Zheng's back disappeared did the purple-haired maid let out a barely perceptible sigh of relief, then she returned to the office and picked up the microphone on the table.

"Boss, he's gone."

"Really..."

"President, please forgive me for being frank, but this man is very dangerous. I don't think it is a wise choice to let Miss Alisa get close to him."

"I have my own plans. You can go back to work."

"……yes."

Hearing Irina's order, the purple-haired maid sighed slightly, then she put down the phone and walked to the window. There, Fang Zheng, who had just walked out of the gate of the Lanefort Company, could be clearly seen. He walked to a strangely shaped black guided car on the street, and then the door opened. A girl in a white dress stuck her head out of the car and waved vigorously at the man, who smiled, got into the guided car, and then drove away.

What is the identity of that man?

The purple-haired maid looked at the black guided vehicle going away with a serious expression, and a trace of uneasiness and doubt flashed in her eyes. That kind of oppressive feeling might even make the emperor of the empire inferior to him. However, according to what the president said, he was just the president of a guided technology company?

How is this possible?

That feeling of oppression, that aura, is not simply the result of fame in the business world. Irina is considered a super strong person in the Ryanfort Company, but the purple-haired maid is sure that even she cannot possess the aura like this man.

So, who is he?

The purple-haired maid was thinking hard here, but Fang Zheng didn't care about such a small matter. At this moment, he was driving the little girls around the Crimson Imperial Capital Heimdall. Their first stop was naturally the most famous Triumphal Avenue in the Imperial Capital.

"Wow, the road here is so wide."

Looking at the spacious road outside the car window, Tida couldn't help but scream out. Indeed, compared with the places Fang Zheng and others had been to before, Triumph Avenue could be regarded as the widest lane. In modern terms, other places were at most two-way two-lane roads, while Triumph Avenue was a four-lane road in both directions. The two sides were not on the same level at all.

"Because there are many horse-drawn carriages in the imperial capital, it is beneficial to build wider roads."

Fang Zheng responded while holding the steering wheel. As a capital city with a long history, Heimdall doesn't look particularly modern, but the crimson brick and stone buildings around it have a unique sense of heaviness and solemnity. No wonder it is called the "Crimson Capital".

After taking the little girls to a hearty meal, Fang Zheng took them to the famous Notre Dame Park in the imperial capital to take a walk to digest the food.

I have to say that as a famous tourist attraction in the imperial capital, the park itself is quite good.

It’s this name… Well, Fang Zheng always wants to complain.

“It’s really beautiful here.”

Looking at the green grass, streams, lakes, and the glass greenhouse not far away, Tita's eyes lit up, while Ling narrowed her eyes and looked around.

"Yeah, it looks like there are quite a few couples here. It feels pretty romantic."

"If you're interested, we can also build a crystal palace."

Fang Zheng touched Ling's head and looked at the glass greenhouse not far away. Hmm... This idea is indeed good. Why not try it out in the newly built amusement park? A natural greenhouse in a reinforced concrete city seems to be a pretty good selling point.

As for money? Anyway, Fang Zheng has plenty of money now, so he is not afraid of spending it, right?

"Hey, so big brother, do you want to go out with me?"

Hearing this, Ling also grabbed Fang Zheng's hand and shook it continuously.

"Everyone here is in love with each other. Will others think we are a couple too?"

However, at this moment, Theo, who had been following beside him, spoke unexpectedly.

“Not all couples here have a good relationship.”

"Why?"

At this moment, suddenly, a sad roar came from the woods not far away.

“You’re going too far!!”

Along with this roar, Fang Zheng and others saw a girl with golden curly hair and tears in her eyes rushing out from the bushes, and then she passed by everyone while crying.

"Torisha, wait! Torisha..."

However, soon afterwards, a young man in a suit and tie also hurried out. He looked at the girl's leaving figure blankly, stretched out his hand, and then dropped it. He sighed helplessly, turned and walked to the other side.

"What a coward!"

Seeing this, Ling couldn't help but complain.

"You should chase after her at a time like this! That sister must need someone to comfort her."

"You are such a smart kid, where did you learn this?"

Fang Zheng patted Ling's little head, and the latter pouted.

"It's all in the books. Usually when the heroine is sad and wants to leave, the hero will grab her wrist, pull her into his arms, and whisper in her ear, 'You can't escape from my palm'..."

"……Um?"

Are you still watching the domineering president?

"Pay less attention to these nonsense in the future."

Fang Zheng reached out and tapped Ling's forehead.

"This is not something a little girl like you should be watching."

“Woo…”

Covering her forehead, Ling glared at Fang Zheng in dissatisfaction, but said nothing.

For Fang Zheng and the others, the scene in the Notre Dame Park was just a small quarrel that happened by chance, and there was no need to take it to heart. They continued to travel around according to their own travel route. Finally, when the sun was setting, the group arrived at the last area of ​​the imperial capital - the Oster District.

"This is the Oster District."

Tida looked at the streets around her, which seemed a little shabby but clean, and couldn't help but mutter.

"I heard this used to be a slum area, so I thought it would be dirty and messy."

"But didn't the old lady also say that this place has been completely renovated since the Prime Minister took office? At least I think it looks pretty good now."

Ling also turned her head and looked around, expressing her own feelings.

However, at this moment, Theo, who was walking beside her, stopped and stretched out his hand to point forward.

"Look over there."

"Um?"

Hearing what Theo said, everyone turned their heads and looked in the direction Theo pointed. They saw a girl coming out of a store not far away and walking along the street to the other side.

"What happened to that big sister?"

Ling observed the girl carefully, then looked at Tio with confusion and asked.

"She's the one we met at the park at noon."

"ah!"

After hearing Theo's reminder, the two of them remembered what happened at noon.

"So it's that sister... Well, she doesn't look very happy now."

Just as Ling said, at this moment the curly-haired girl was walking slowly along the street, but her face was pale and lifeless, giving people the feeling that she was a walking corpse.

"Did you break up with your boyfriend?"

"Then this elder sister is really pitiful..."

Tita and Ling were whispering to one another, while Theo stared at the girl's figure disappearing into the alley. Then she looked at Fang Zheng with an uneasy look on her face.

"Brother Fang Zheng, can we follow and see?"

"oh?"

"I have a very bad feeling... I don't know why, but I always feel that sister seems... very dangerous."

"You can actually feel it too?"

Fang Zheng raised his eyebrows when he heard Theo's suggestion. He certainly also felt the murderous intent from the girl, but it seemed that Theo was just as sensitive - to be honest, her emotional sense was enhanced when she was experimented on by the cult, and her sensitivity to emotions was far beyond that of ordinary people.

"Okay, let's go over and take a look."

Thinking of this, Fang Zheng nodded and made a decision.
