The round table is the highest standard meeting of the British Empire. All the territorial nobles, central dignitaries, local dignitaries, heads of knights, emperors and crown princes in the country will gather in pandragon. Therefore, the security work will not be careless and too low-level.

In history, there have been several occasions when spies from hostile countries came to sabotage the convening of meetings or to assassinate important personnel of the Empire.

In order to prevent the sabotage of the spies of these hostile countries, the Empire did more and more abnormal security work before and during the round table.

There are so many patrols in panderagon that armed patrols can be seen everywhere.

These patrols have been given great rights. Anyone who feels suspicious on the street can directly come forward to interrogate and check.

The strategy adopted by the Empire for the interrogation and inspection of suspicious personnel was "would rather kill a thousand wrong than let one go".

During this time, I don't know how many people were taken into prison because they stuttered when answering the patrol's cross examination of him and were suspected of having a ghost in their heart.

Although these people who were taken in by mistake will be released after detailed inspection, this extreme practice of the patrol still makes all the citizens of pandragon feel very frightened.

Therefore, now the citizens of pandragon are too afraid to look directly at them after seeing the patrol, for fear that the patrol will check and interrogate them.

So now Su Cheng wears his knight sword when he goes out. When he wears his knight sword, fewer people will come to check him.

However, even so, there are still many patrols to investigate him, which makes Su Cheng feel numb.

During the short journey to the restaurant where Carol works this evening, Su Cheng has already met three patrols who came to check on him.

So many times that Su Cheng wondered if he looked too bad, and was constantly checked by the patrol.

As for why I want to go to Carol's restaurant now, the reason is also very simple.

——Go get Carol back.

Su Cheng took Carol to work every day from the day before yesterday, that is, October 16, the day after he returned to pandragon from the southern front line.

As for why I have to pick up Carol to work every day, the reason is also very simple.

——Protect Carol.

After making friends with Carol for so long and living under the same roof for so long, Su Cheng still knows something about Carol.

Su Cheng knows that Carol is actually a timid person. Carol is easily frightened.

Although Carol looks harmless to humans and animals, there is no guarantee that the patrol will not interrogate and inspect her.

Faced with the interrogation of the patrol, Carol, who is a little timid, is likely to be too frightened to speak quickly because of the momentum of the patrol.

In the face of some crazy patrols, it is taboo to speak unclearly.

The patrol is likely to think that Carol has a ghost in her heart because she doesn't speak well, and then directly put Carol in prison.

Therefore, for the sake of Carol's safety and not to visit Carol in prison, Su Cheng picked up Carol every day from the second day after he came back, sent Carol to the restaurant in the morning and picked her back in the evening to protect Carol.

Su Cheng was lucky. After saying goodbye to the wave of patrol just now, Su Cheng never saw any patrol again.

Su Cheng finished his last journey safely and came to the restaurant where Carol worked.

In front of the restaurant where Carol works, there is a "closed" sign.

Su Chengli ignored the "closed" sign and directly opened the door of the restaurant.

After opening the door of the restaurant and entering the restaurant, Su Cheng saw Carol, Leica and Owen who were cleaning.

At this time, all the chairs in the restaurant were buckled on the table. Carol and Owen were sweeping the floor with brooms, while Leica was wiping each table with a rag.

"Good afternoon! Mr. Su Cheng! " After seeing Su Cheng, Leica put down her rag and greeted Su Cheng warmly, "you are also very energetic today!"

"Well, good afternoon, Leica." Su Cheng replied with a smile, "you look in a good mood today. What happened?"

"Hum ~ ~ something good happened! I found a 100 yuan yinglang in the restaurant today! "

After that, Leica took out a crumpled 100 yuan note from her pocket.

As soon as Leica's words fell, Owen, who had been sweeping the floor with his head down, immediately raised his head as if he felt something:

"What? In the restaurant? Money? Leica, that's my money. Give it back to me. "

"What! Store manager! " Leica puffed up her cheeks discontentedly. "I found the money. Since I found it, it belongs to me! Also, why are you so sure that this money is yours? "

"Because the money appeared in the restaurant." Owen looked serious. "I'm the owner of this restaurant. All the money dropped in the restaurant is naturally mine."

"What a fallacy! I won't give you the money! "

……

Looking at Leica and Owen who began to quarrel again, Su Cheng smiled helplessly and walked quickly to Carol's side.

"Leica and Owen are quarreling again." As Su Cheng spoke, he took the broom in Carol's hand.

"I'm used to it." Carol smiled. "They basically quarrel several times a day, but although they love to quarrel, their relationship is very good."

Because she has been taking Carol to the restaurant every day these days, Su Cheng has gradually become familiar with Carol's boss and colleagues, restaurant owner Owen and waiter Leika.

Although the two people always quarrel and are much younger. One is an uncle in his forties and the other is a young girl about the same age as Carol, they are very good friends. In addition to their deep friendship, they are also mixed with some family feelings.

After taking the broom from Carol, Su Cheng asks Carol to have a rest first. He will do the rest of her work.

Although Su Cheng doesn't like doing cleaning work very much, Su Cheng usually directly pushes Alan to do the cleaning tasks at home, but Su Cheng cleans up quickly.

The cleaning work was about to be completed. Su Cheng finished cleaning the restaurant not long after he took the broom from Carol.

"All right! The cleaning is finished! " Owen looked at the now clean restaurant with a satisfied look on his face.

However, the satisfied color on Owen's face didn't last long, so he changed into a depressed color.

"This round table is really annoying... A curfew was imposed directly, which made me unable to do business at night..."

Two days ago, pandragon officially imposed a curfew. All those who came out at night were put in prison as suspicious elements.

Owen can only close his shop before dark because of the abominable curfew in his eyes.

This is a big blow to Owen's income. After all, dinner time in the evening is Owen's best time of the day.

"Yes, this round table meeting is very annoying..." Su Cheng answered with a bitter smile on one side, "even the merit reward meeting has been postponed..."

It has been three days since Su Cheng returned to panderagon from the southern front. According to the past, he has already held a reward conference and received a large reward.

The merit reward conference is very grand. First, the war results are amazing. Second, the merit reward conference will reward the meritorious officials of the "spring wake up" and "summer wind" attacks at the same time. Therefore, there are a lot of reward recipients.

However, there is no doubt that the priority of the upcoming round table conference is much higher than that of the merit reward conference. Now the imperial Central Committee has focused its work on the upcoming round table conference and has no time to take into account the merit reward conference. Therefore, the Central Committee announced that the merit reward conference will be postponed until the end of the round table conference.
