Chapter 127 Invitation Letter

Chen Luo sat up from the bed, opened the window, and Isabella jumped in from the window.

Chen Luo looked at her in surprise and asked, "Why don't you go through the door?"

Isabella gave him a blank look and said, "I'm stupid, I'll be seen when I walk through the door."

Chen Luo didn't understand why Isabella was afraid of being seen, and it wasn't that she did something shameful to do secretly. It would be easier to be misunderstood by jumping into the window, right?

Isabella skillfully kicked off her shoes, sat on the bed, and asked, "Is that friend of yours President Calvin?"

Chen Luo nodded.

Isabella wondered, "But why should the tax officer listen to President Calvin?"

Chen Luo thought for a while and said, "It is possible that he owes Calvin a lot of money, so I have to ask them..."

Of course Isabella wouldn't ask Calvin. She looked at Chen Luo and changed the topic, "Blair, what did my father say to you?"

"He said thank you for protecting you in front of Baird last time."

"What else?"

"He also said that you have a bad temper and asked me to tolerate you more at school."

Isabella put her hands on her hips and said dissatisfiedly: "Is my temper very bad?"

"You forgot that the first time we met, you used fireball to burn me?"

"..." Isabella quickly got up from the bed, put on her shoes, jumped out of the window, and said, "Blair, I'm going to go back to bed, see you tomorrow..."

The moment she turned out the window, she turned around and whispered to Chen Luo: "Blair, thank you..."

In the corner of the corridor, Auston stood there, watching Isabella's figure disappear into the darkness, sighing in a complicated mood.

Chen Luo went back to school alone after breakfast at the City Lord's Mansion.

Isabella originally planned to go back with him, but was kept by the Austons. One night, Isabella's mother became more enthusiastic about him, but Auston didn't talk much to Chen Luo.

When he walked out of the city lord's mansion, Chen Luo happened to run into Calvin and Xize.

When the two saw him, they immediately made way for him, with unconcealed respect in their expressions.

Chen Luo waved at them casually and left straight away.

In the distance, Auston, who was standing in the manor, once again looked contemplative on his face.

Xize walked into the city lord's mansion and saw Auston from afar. He immediately stepped forward and bowed to apologize: "Lord Auston, we have not investigated what happened yesterday, which has caused you trouble..."

The attitude of the tax officer was very different from last night, so Auston certainly wouldn't think it was his own reason.

These officials of the royal capital had their eyes on their heads, and the local city lords and finance ministers were not taken seriously by them at all.

At this time, Auston remembered the scene of Size bowing to Blair to give way.

Of course, he didn't show anything on his face and smiled and said, "Nothing is causing trouble. I am the lord of Yabo City. I have a responsibility for the tax issues in Yabo City..."

...

The tax officer was quick to move. During the short journey of Chen Luo from the City Lord's Mansion to the St. Donas Academy, he heard the follow-up of the matter of the Minister of Finance.

Last night, the tax officials from the capital came to search for huge amounts of gold coins of unknown origin in the home of the Finance Minister. The home of the Finance Minister was searched on the spot.

The Finance Minister himself was also controlled as soon as possible and was about to be sent to the royal capital for trial.

The Minister of Finance came to Yabo City for just one year and levyed various taxes. The people of Yabo City had been suffering a lot. When they heard the news early in the morning, they all cheered.

The nobles who knew the background of the Finance Minister were shocked by this.

The Minister of Finance Walter is the queen's younger brother. His family also has great influence in the royal capital. Even the Lord of Apollon, he dared not offend him.

No one expected that the tax officer this time would be so cruel that he would not give the queen and the Walter family any face. Once the Finance Minister Walter stepped down, the power structure of Yapo City would undergo earth-shaking changes.

It takes time for the Kingdom to assign a new Finance Minister. Even if the new Finance Minister will be able to join the office soon, he has no background in Walter and can only choose to rely on the city lord or sheriff.

The Clavis family inherited the city lord of Yabo City. Even if the contemporary city lord Auston is weak and has no achievements, the connections accumulated by the family over the years can still make him firmly gain a foothold in Yabo City. As for the sheriff, he is completely opposite to the city lord Auston. He has been operating in Yabo City for more than ten years, and his status is not much different even if he is not as good as the city lord.

The news that Walter was searched by the tax officer, sheriff Emmons heard about it last night. He showed an extremely unbelievable expression on his face and said in surprise: "How could Xizer attack Walter? Are they not friends?"

His adjutant stood behind him and said, "Although I don't know why the tax officer turned against Walter, this is a good thing for us. Walter is too arrogant and doesn't take anyone seriously. We have won him several times and he rejected him. Auston is a coward. If the adults can win over the new finance minister, we will be the one who will make the decision in the future..."

Emmons showed expectation on his face and murmured: "I don't know who the next Minister of Finance will send to the Kingdom..."

...

Thinking that there were not many ingredients at home, Chen Luo bought orders on the way back to school.

The vendors in Yabo City were quite conscientious. After the Finance Minister collapsed, the price of vegetables immediately dropped. Chen Luo bought almost the same thing, but ten silver coins were less than the previous few days.

A few days ago, the prices in Yapo City were messed up by the Finance Minister. As the city lord, Auston did nothing. No wonder in the eyes of others, he was a cowardly and incompetent city lord.

Chen Luo is even more looking forward to the day when Isabella becomes the city lord. At that time, he will help Isabella to remove all the restless factors in Yabo City.

The city lord is his senior sister, and from now on he just needs to hide under Isabella's cake skirt.

When he got home, he put the things in the refrigerator and said, "Teacher Britney, I'm back..."

Britney came out of the room and asked, “Did Blair sleep at Isabella’s house yesterday?”

Chen Luo nodded and said, "It was already very late when the banquet ended yesterday. Mrs. Claves asked me to live in the city lord's mansion."

Britney handed him a few things and said, "This morning, Dean Archier sent this, you can open it and take a look."

"What is this?" Chen Luo took five things like envelopes in confusion. The fronts of them had different patterns. Under the patterns, there were some small characters, which were...

Wangdu Magic Academy.

Wangdu Academy of Sciences.

King Kong Knights Academy.

Wangdu Academy of Literature.

Wangdu Medical College.

"This is an invitation letter from the Five Colleges of the Royal Capital." Britney explained: "If you want to enter the Five Colleges of the Royal Capital, you need to pass their entrance exams, but not everyone is like this."

"The Five Colleges of the Royal Capital will choose some geniuses in the Kingdom every year to invite them." Britney looked at him and said, "If you want, you will be able to enter any of the Five Colleges of the Royal Capital next semester."

Chen Luo said in confusion: "But am I only in the second grade?"

Britney smiled and said, "For the five major academies, this is not important. You are the youngest Edwin Award winner in history, and the discoverer of irrational numbers. He saves Lorraine's hero in mathematics. I think this should be the reason why the five major academies invite you at the same time... Although the five major academies have different subject focus, no matter which college, they need math geniuses."

Chen Luo threw five invitation letters aside, and was too lazy to open them, and said, "I won't go."

Britney looked at him and comforted him: "This is a rare opportunity. Yapo City is too small for you..."
