Chapter 222 - Snow Over the Sky 05
Ending the communication, Dio took a deep breath and stared at the silent communicator until a figure suddenly appeared beside her and grabbed her from behind without her responding. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"It's not like you, you're so gentle. What did you say to Wakatsuki, right?" Sixteen Night's lips pressed close to her ear, deliberately blowing in her ear.
"You're finally starting to think with your 1TB of brain capacity. Dio snorted coldly, dissatisfied and wanted to get rid of Sixteen Nights, but Sixteen Nights hugged very tightly, even if he pulled out a gun, this guy would not be afraid, so she let Sixteen Nights do it.
"Wouldn't you be more frank if you wanted to compliment me?"
"Do you think that's a compliment? I'll teach you one thing, if you convert it into bytes, the human brain can remember the bytes that are theoretically 10 to the 12th power. ”
"Bytes?"
Oh, this guy doesn't know how to use computers, and Dio remembered this important thing. Computers in this world are not yet popular, and the vast majority of the people, even commanders like Wakatsuki, may not be able to master the use of computers, and she has a large number of subordinates who do these things for her, and she herself may not necessarily learn this 'emerging product' in depth. Chewing on the information that should have been kept in her head, she spat out a smoke ring.
"Sixteen Nights, why do you think Ruoyuebai came to me?"
"Well, I think there are a lot of reasons, like wanting to see what kind of guy you are. But I think it's most likely that she's feeling threatened, right?"
"On the contrary, I am just a foreigner who cannot be reused, Zhu Yuanfang seems to be interested in me on the surface, but that is only on the surface. Wakatsuki Bai is further than I thought, and she wants to borrow my position. ”
"Stand?"
"Before contacting Daria, I confirmed to the Hunter Department that the task of letting me escort important members was given by Zhu Yuanfang himself, but it was conveyed by Ruoyue Bai. ”
Everything in the Ming Empire was under the watchful eye of the West Factory and the East Factory, and the power of these two organizations almost overshadowed all other institutions. It is impossible for Zhu Yuanfang not to be concerned about such an organization, even if it is the governor of the West Factory, Ruoyuebai himself may be monitored to a certain extent. Just look at the subordinates around her who are almost inseparable from her, plus Ruoyue's white legs and feet are inconvenient, if she wants to plot something, it will be difficult to escape Zhu Yuanfang's eyes.
So she needed a legitimate reason to approach Dior.
Compared with Ruoyuebai, who is controlled everywhere, Dior is more convenient to act, and she is also a familiar face of the Ming Empire, and it is much more convenient to do things than Ruoyuebai herself.
"After all, he is the governor of the West Factory, and he has been mingling with high-ranking officials all year round, and communication without a trace is already a basic skill?" Dior sighed.
"Oh, is she trying to pull you into the water?" said Sixteen Nights' eyes widened.
"Based on what I've known about her so far, whether or not I join her shouldn't have much of an impact on her plans. Her methods are very simple, just the kind I usually use, and she seems to put the choice in my hands, but in fact she doesn't care that I will be on Anna Xu's side. I can join her and contact her to do things, but once her affairs are revealed, I will naturally not be able to stay in the Ming Empire, so it is impossible to betray; The role of my words in the unappreciated is one thing, and on the other hand, it means that I am completely against her. It's a very simple trick, and you'd better jot it down with what little brain capacity you have left. ”
"All I have in my head is Misakiya and you right now, so it shouldn't matter if you take a few clicks. ”
Completely unimpressed... I don't know what you're thinking, Sixteen Nights.
Christian Dior removed the ashes from his pipe and filled it with some tobacco.
"Of course, there is also an option, which is to do nothing. It seems that this is the best choice, but when Ruoyuebai's matter is revealed, she will definitely expose the matter of meeting me, and then I will lose all the possibility of making a fortune in the Ming Empire, although there is not much now. On top of that, I didn't know what she wanted to do. I don't know if she will rebel or not, and I don't know what will happen to the Ming Empire when I leave, and when I come back from Warsaw, it will probably be over, and I will lose even the opportunity to choose - she is "appreciating treasures". ”
Now that she's met Sherlock, think she's heard about Dior. It just so happened that there was no one to take advantage of, so Ruoyue Bai came to tempt.
It's conventional thinking. However, when Dio met Wakatsuki Bai just now, he actually smelled a familiar smell on her.
Bai Ze.
Why did she meet Bai Ze? What did Bai Ze say to her? Did she reach a consensus with Bai Ze?
“... It's chaos. ”
Dio leaned back weakly, and Sixteen Nights, who had been holding her from behind, had to support her weight. Dior is very light, maybe only about forty kilograms, but this is the first time I have seen her like this in Sixteen Nights.
"Seeing that you are so distressed, that person named Ruoyue Bai is very powerful?"
"If I could, I would definitely avoid her and leave the Ming Empire early. I never thought that she would have a relationship with Bai Ze and Sherlock... The most troublesome guys I've ever met all come together, and I can't guess what kind of chemistry will happen between them. It's not that I haven't thought about the possibility of Sherlock conspiring with someone else... But because I couldn't think of how to win for a while, I gave up. The main problem is that I don't know anything about Wakatsuki, and I don't know what she's going to do..."
"Wakazuki White... That's right?"
Sixteen Nights suddenly thought of the craftsman he had met a few days ago.
————
“... What a coincidence. ”
Dio and Sixteen Nights arrived in front of the Misty White Workshop. She couldn't help but sigh again that fate made people, and when Zhu Yuanfang asked her to solve the matter of Yujian Sword, she also met this craftsman. However, at the mention of Sixteen Nights, Dio remembered that Yumi Jian seemed to have given her a pocket watch, and she specially brought it with her before she came.
Rain Sword said that this pocket watch with only the hour hand can "reverse fate". If Dior had not believed in such a strange thing in this world before he got the book of "DIO". At that time, the world she lived in was too narrow, and she had never even seen the tip of the iceberg of this world. And now, even if she wanted to believe the words of the Rain Sword, she didn't know what this pocket watch could do.
Dead relatives and friends are bound to lose the battle, the future, and even time. It's very vague that she wouldn't put her hopes on this kind of prop if it weren't for a desperate situation, just like the book of "DIO".
"See you again, Dio Connor, and Sixteen Nights. ”
Ruo Mistbai, who opened the door of the workshop to greet the two, glanced at Sixteen Nights and Dior, and finally stopped at Dior for a moment before he opened the door to welcome the arrival of the two.
The workshop was much warmer than expected, and Dior's body temperature rose slightly due to the rise in temperature. Because he has not sucked blood for a long time, his complexion is still pale.
After the two of them took their seats, Ruowu Bai immediately spoke:
"Presumably the two of you are here for the sake of Wakatsuki's child. ”
"That's right," Dio nodded, "I want to know her." ”
She still spoke vague words as always, and if Wakakibai was an ordinary father, she would probably regard Dio as his daughter's friend.
Ruo Kiribai's expression didn't change much, and he didn't answer Dior's question, and walked to the workbench by himself, adjusting the pocket watch that was still on the shelf.
Dio didn't speak, neither did Wakaki. Sixteen Nights on the side anxiously watched Ruo Wu Bai slowly adjust the movement of the pocket watch, and he was afraid of disturbing Ruo Wu Bai, afraid that he would be angry and refuse to tell Dior those things.
Five minutes, or ten minutes? Although there are many clocks in the store, the time pointed by the clocks is uneven, and I don't know if Wakakibai has adjusted the time.
Finally, Wakagi put down the tools he was holding, assembled the pocket watch, and only nodded after seeing that the hands of the pocket watch began to function normally.
"I can tell you that I also have a request," Wakagiri said as she put her pocket watch back into the brocade box, "and if she really intends to rebel, kill her." ”
"Isn't she your daughter?!" Sixteen Nights finally couldn't help but speak, and she suddenly got up from her chair.
"Sixteen nights, sit well. Dio also stood up and pressed her shoulder.
"That's right, she's my daughter, and I've taught her everything she wants to learn," Wakakibai shook his head, a gentle smile on his face, "Miss Sixteen Nights, who will you help if your daughter has an irresolvable conflict with Dio Connor next to you?"
Sixteen Nights opened his mouth, but finally sat back without saying a word.
Ruo Kiri Bai didn't make a casual decision. The face of the ancient well is the same mask as Dior's disguise.
"Her life is not far from the end, but once her rebellion succeeds, it will be the time when the centuries-old empire will be destroyed. If... If she does go down this path, I want you to kill her before she's about to fail. If she loses to you, she shouldn't have too many regrets. ”
He took the pocket watch out of the brocade box and stroked the most ordinary ornament.
"Can you agree to that? No, I shouldn't ask, because you will, Dio Connor. ”
"As you wish. ”
There was no hesitation in Dior's answer, she was still the "demon".
