Chapter 482 Tricks
Are you going to the city again?
"Um—please, I'll do more work next time."

"Is something the matter? Are you going on a date with a guy?"
"Look how red her face is, it's definitely her."
"I just met him, but he's a good person, so I'd like to get to know him better."
"What kind of person is he?"
"He said he was learning carpentry and would become a carpenter. He had blond hair and eyes as blue as the sea."
"You'd better give up sooner rather than later. If your family doesn't approve, you'll have to marry someone else, and you'll be heartbroken then—"
Tuscarola listened to the other maids' conversation, but never put down her work.
This city has endless dishes to wash and clothes to clean; if you have a spare moment, you'll be assigned to sweep the floor.
If Tuscarola hadn't been so short and received so much care, her job would definitely have been much more tiring.
Therefore, Tuscarola only told them that she was only fourteen years old, and they actually believed her.
Now she finally understands that there are advantages to being a little girl.
Tuscarola hates doing odd jobs.
But she did not forget why she came here, so she always made time to investigate the castle.
After washing all the clothes, she needs to take them to an open space to dry.
Tuscarola can take on this job and then use the opportunity to continue the investigation.
Tuscalola has never failed to use this method.
Dressed as a maid, she could walk through the castle without arousing suspicion, especially since she looked harmless.
The only potential problem was Tuscarola's eyes; those around her had long noticed her emerald green pupils.
However, after Tuscarola fabricated a few reasons, they stopped doubting him.
After all, there are probably not many green-eyed people who can speak the royal language fluently.
Therefore, as long as Tuscarola wanders around without being noticed by anyone who knows her, she will not be in any danger.
Those who knew her were mostly in the washroom at that time.
As soon as the last garment was hung up, Tuscarola instantly went into work mode.
She infiltrated the castle with only one purpose: to assassinate Brianna Lorraine.
Furthermore, because the duchess rarely appeared in public before ascending to the throne, very few people knew what she looked like.
Therefore, once they deliberately conceal themselves, they can prevent assassins from making a move.
Moreover, this duchess was extremely cunning, having arranged for five "clones" to be located in five different rooms within the castle, in order to lure unsuspecting assassins into her trap.
According to rumors, once discovered by the Duchess, no one can escape death.
Fortunately, Tuscarola obtained this information in advance; otherwise, she might not be safe at this moment.
She had been infiltrating the castle for over half a month, doing countless chores, but hadn't even found a trace of her target.
Tuscarola has already visited all five specific locations.
You could even say they were very familiar with the process.
She was confident she could carry out the assassination within ten minutes, provided she could be told which room was the real target.
At first, Tuscarola thought that any room from which orders were being issued was the real Duchess.
However, the reality is...
Commands flowed from every room.
Doesn't this mean that all the duchesses are real?
After thinking for a while, Tuscarola realized that the Duchess might not have stayed in just one room.
She frequently swaps places with other Stands in other rooms to confuse potential enemies.
But when Tuscarola began to pay attention to the people in the room, she discovered that when the orders came out of the room, the duchess inside had a different appearance.
In other words, all five of these people issued orders.
This greatly puzzled Tuscalola.
Are all the duchesses real?
Or perhaps she has the ability to create clones of herself?
Tuscarola was puzzled, so he began to try to find out what Brianna Lorraine looked like from the maids around him.
She then discovered that, apart from a few older maids, all the other maids were recently hired.
It must be said that this newly enthroned duchess is truly cunning.
Tuscarola immediately guessed that the other party did this in order to reduce the possibility of his identity being exposed.
It's also clear why Tuscarola was able to easily infiltrate the castle; obviously, there was a shortage of maids.
In fact, this is still the case today.
As a result, Tuscarola has to do heavy chores every day, and her waist is now harder than marble.
That wretched duchess! She doesn't care about anyone else at all!
But no matter how much Tuscarola complains, it is indeed true that she cannot find her goal.
Tuscalola had to admit that the task was quite challenging.
No wonder the Block Alliance lost a large number of assassins to this duchess.
But what should we do now?
Tuscarola was fed up with doing odd jobs, but she had no clue how to do them.
"Where are you a maid from?" a voice suddenly came from behind.
Tuscarola, who was strolling lazily, suddenly turned around and realized that she was also a maid.
The other person was pushing a small cart with a plate of black tea and snacks on it.
Tuscarola immediately guessed that this was a maid specifically responsible for serving her master.
If Tuscarola works a little harder, he might be able to get this position in a couple of years.
Wait, why am I fantasizing about getting promoted? I'm an assassin!
Tuscarola gently shook his head, completely clearing his mind of the previous thought.
Then he replied, "The laundry room."
"The laundry room isn't in this direction, young lady," the maid smiled gently. "Did you just arrive?"
""
Tuscarola nodded.
Now, you have to pretend to be a little girl who doesn't know anything.
"You should familiarize yourself with the surroundings more. Getting lost and wandering around the castle could be punished. You're here to work; there are no loving family members here."
Tuscarola nodded again.
"Fine, come with me. I'll take you back later."
As the cart passed by Tuscarola, she immediately followed.
Damn it, someone noticed us. We'll have to be even more careful from now on.
Given the current situation, it's best to temporarily abandon the investigation to avoid arousing the young maid's suspicion.
Tuscalola walked silently behind the cart.
Then, it stopped in front of a room.
Tuscarola immediately recognized this place as one of the Duchess's five hiding places.
Oh, I see. These are refreshments prepared for the Duke.
To be honest, if it's confirmed that the person inside is the target, poisoning might be a good assassination plan, although it's not really in line with Tuscarola's style.
Not long after, the maid came out carrying an empty tray.
After placing it on the trolley, he smiled at Tuscarola and said, "Let's go."
Tuscarola nodded and continued to follow.
She also recognized that this was the way back to the laundry room.
Looking at the maid's retreating figure, Tuscarola knew.
If this person tells the foreman about Tuscarola's situation today, a severe scolding is inevitable.
She should have been heartbroken—
But her pupils suddenly contracted.
As he took a deep breath, a few words escaped his lips: "So that's how it is—"
Tuscarola felt she understood what trick Brianna Lorraine had up her sleeve.
With a smirk, the assassination could begin!
