The Morning Before the Reunion

The reunion is tonight. And I got the invitation from Kayla this morning.

"It was made in a hurry, but this is the invitation. Only those who bring this invitation can attend the event in the restaurant," Kayla said.

"It became so luxurious. Is there anyone who became rich after the stampede perhaps?" I asked as I grabbed the invitation from her.

"Rather than after the stampede, she was already rich before the stampede. Her family owned a jewelry shop that many nobles in Melk and even those from outside had heard about. After the stampede, they moved to another city. She came here trying to reopen her shop after so long leaving here. It's a coincidence that she came here at the same time as us. And using her connection, she booked a restaurant that many nobles usualy visit when they came here," Kayla said.

"And using our connection, we made sure that no one would come to the restaurant tonight. Am I right?" I asked.
