"I see." Lie sat on the edge of the bed and nodded.

It was already dark outside, but I didn't expect it to take nearly a day just to tell the situation.

Well, that's right, it's night ... Lie did not return to the hotel where the room was booked, but in the lion's villa, at this time in the lion's room, specifically in the lion's bed.

“…”

Why does it always sound like something is abnormal? Hawkers, maybe I didn't make it clear... The safest place in the villa is the lion's room, so I chose this place.

As for why in bed, because Leol is being examined by the Mercy... This is a zero requirement, please Xi to carry it out... That is, after seeing the hospital ship Mercy, ask her to check the Admiral's body as soon as possible.

Zero has been inspected many times, but he is still relieved to be completely relieved after the inspection of the Mercy.

"No problem." When the Mercy heard the request of zero, it was not ambiguous at all, and began to check it while Lie was still listening to the lion's narration, very carefully.

After a long and detailed examination, the Mercy came to the conclusion: "Although the body has been damaged many times, there is another unknown force that has been repaired, so there is no sequelae caused by the repeated use of a certain ability." ”

"Whew~" Hearing this result, Lie also breathed a sigh of relief... Zero was so worried, and Lie was a little scared.

On the other hand, the lion moved a chair and sat on the side of the bed, telling Lie as if he were comforting the sick. A lot of things happened in between, dating back to some time before the establishment of the Deep Sea Empire.

At that time, the emperor had already made a move, occupied a large area of the sea, and was in a decisive battle with the forces of the ship mother led by the strongest ship Niang enterprise.

Aina collected the remnants and integrated her own ship mother with some of the remaining forces of the European Emperor little by little. Of course, Aina is not the only one who did this, after the queen broke off for everyone, many queen candidates escaped and retained a point of strength.

Besides, the emperor's first target was the chieftain forces, and then he fought a decisive battle with the older generation of ship forces led by the Enterprise... It is said that at that time, they also fought against the deep sea forces that refused to obey the emperor internally, that is, the deep sea forces led by Minato Suhime.

All of this has given the European Emperor forces a chance to breathe and ample room to prepare for war. Originally, the two sides still had the strength to fight... However, with the sudden disappearance of the Enterprise, the situation is like dominoes, and there has been a huge change that cannot be reversed.

The most significant blow came from the emperor's sudden appearance at a joint meeting of the queen candidates, and brought a large number of elite chamberlains.

The high-level European emperor who had saved up well and was preparing for a decisive battle was devastated, and many queen candidates had survived, but most of them were not spared that time.

Aina's luck was good, she was in a less important position and was not the focus of attention, so she finally escaped again. After all, the emperor appeared suddenly, and after dealing with the initial wave, there were still many passages to evacuate.

However, with the last of the European Emperor's forces capable of large-scale resistance being severely defeated, the Deep Sea Empire was fully established.

Aina leads her shipwrewn and the old department, namely Anwar, Suki, Mr. Chuanbu and Miss Yumi, as well as Yu Hang, Qiusha and other admirals.

Speaking of which, there seems to be something wrong with the fact that a few of the main admirals led by Aina are missing. It's just that the sudden establishment of the Deep Sea Empire made them at a loss, that is, they found a suitable opportunity to disappear on their own.

That's good, and all that can be left is a partner you can trust. Aina led the old army and launched a guerrilla battle, and the deep sea was crazy at that time.

After surviving the most difficult period, Aina led the old department to grow gradually, but encountered a very special event. The process of that incident is complicated to explain, and the result is that Aina is trapped in a very special place.

And at this time, Aisha suddenly arrived... At first, everyone didn't know that Aisha had cooperated with the deep sea, thinking that she was still a member of the European Emperor, so they trusted Aina after she was suddenly trapped.

Fortunately, before Aisha could do something irreparable, Anwar managed to find out her identity. As a result, Aina's shipwives cooperated with Aisha for some reason, and Anwar temporarily took Aina's place, leading everyone to continue the struggle in the shadows.

This situation has continued until now, that is, the moment of the arrival of the lie.

When all was said and done, it was getting late, and the Mercy had just finished its diagnosis and was washing its hands. Xi sat with everyone affectionately, enjoying the joy of reunion after a long absence.

"That's the rough picture." The lion has regained its original elegance and dignity, and although it is still dressed in casual clothes, that temperament has been highlighted.

Lie nodded, then sat up from the bed and asked the lion very seriously: "I'm going to take you away, when can I go?" ”

It's really polite to ask, and it looks like the lion will definitely leave... In fact, exactly that's it! No matter how you live in Beizhou City, whether it's a national idol or a staycation, you're just waiting.

And what awaits is who will take them away! This person is either their admiral or their "admiral next door"!

There was no nostalgia, and the lion immediately said that everyone who remained in Beizhou City was here, ready to leave at any time. It's just that there are a few things I want to deal with before leaving, if the situation allows.

In addition, Xi can share stealth abilities with the Admiral, but if you take everyone out in this way, I'm afraid it's not realistic. In order to prevent the lion and her party from leaving, Aisha has set up a lot of obstacles... Moreover, with the current popularity of the lion party, they will be recognized wherever they go.

Hearing Lord Lie say this, the surrounding ship girls all quieted down and looked at Lord Lie and the lion.

"Okay." Lie nodded, the lion is okay here, and then continued: "Richelieu and they will arrive in Beizhou City in three days... However, we plan not to come in, but to pick up and leave as soon as you leave! ”

"Well, if you can, it's good to lure Aisha out of Beizhou City, so that it will be easier to fight her."

"It's all up to Lord Lie's arrangement." Obviously, the lion and everyone have a lot of trust in the 'Admiral next door'.

"Then," Lie continued, "Let's go to the place where Aina is trapped and find a way to get her out." ”

The night passed while Lie and the lion were discussing a specific plan of action.

…

The next day, at eight o'clock in the evening, a special guest arrived, Aisha.

The lion was dressed up as before, and a sumptuous dinner was prepared in advance... Rather, this time seems to be more grand than any other.

Originally, Lie was planning to chase and evacuate the lion and Richelieu in Aisha, but I didn't expect her to take the initiative to come today! This is a rare opportunity, and according to normal habits, Aisha will not be there during this time.

Although it is not clear why she came, it was a very good opportunity... Obviously, she didn't have many guards with her, and she was in front of the lion.

"The lion seems to be happy?" Aisha said, "Does the lion already know that Richelieu and his party are about to return?" ”

"Yes, I already know." The lion generously admitted... It's not a secret, but if you pay enough attention, you can still know it.

Aisha didn't seem surprised, and after some small talk, Aisha said, "In addition to Richelieu and his party coming back, there is another news I want to tell you. ”

"An admiral named Lie, I think you are not a stranger to it, right?"

"Lord Lie!" The lion cried out in surprise... Could it be that it has been exposed?

"Yes, it's the Lie you know." Aisha pursed her lips and wiped the napkin that Rafi handed her, then continued, "He also came to the waters of Northcontinent, and he is still very famous... If the lion reads the newspaper, he wants to know about the mysterious fleet some time ago, right? ”

"Yes." The lion nodded, and that incident caused a wave, although now that it has passed... In addition, at that time, the lion and his entourage knew that Lord Lie had come to the Beizhou Sea, but they didn't expect to find it so quickly.

"That mysterious fleet is the fierce fleet!" Aisha doesn't seem to know too much about the relationship between Ryu and Aina... Fortunately, Lie was not involved in the whole process of contact with Aisha, so Aisha's understanding was limited.

In other words, Aisha only knew that Rishi seemed to be Aina's old ministry, but she didn't know that Lion and Richelieu had such a high level of trust in Rih, second only to their Admiral Aina.

Otherwise, after getting the news that Lyceum and Richelieu had been in Nicello for a while, it wouldn't have been just the reaction now.

Aisha looked at the lion's reaction, and really cared, so she continued: "It's just that this Lie-sama has been in trouble recently. ”

“？？”

The lion's expression was a little strange, but he still asked, "Out... What's up? ”

"That Lord Lie seems to have something to do with the Holy Forest."

"Sacred Grove?" The lion asked suspiciously, "Is that the holy forest in the nearby Sacred Forest Sea?" ”

"Yes, that's it."

"Well, I've been to concerts a few times before, so it doesn't seem to be anything special..."

"That's just on the surface," Aisha's expression became serious, and she said very seriously, "Actually, the Sacred Forest was formed by a group of mysterious organizations that can control people's hearts!" ”

“！！”

That's really exciting news! Not only the lion and the ship girls sitting on the side, but even the lie who was hiding behind the curtain was very surprised.

Originally, it was just to say "Sacred Forest" under the guise of it, but I didn't expect that there was really something else there, and Aisha knew it very well!

"I've been in contact with the mysterious organization of the Sacred Grove, and I know that they have the power to control people's hearts... In fact, I have long wanted to send a deep-sea fleet to sweep away there, but only hitting the sea area of the Holy Forest is tantamount to treating the symptoms but not the root cause, and only hurting the skin and bones of the other party. ”

"If, the Lie Lord you know has something to do with the Sacred Forest, the situation is worrying!"

“…”

Lie suddenly felt that Aisha couldn't be fooling, right? The soul network moved slightly, explaining how the lion replied, and seeing what she had in mind.

"So, what do we need to do to help Lord Lie? Stop him from going to the Sacred Grove? ”

"I'm afraid it's too late to stop halfway... Besides, he only got the news that Lie was going to the Sacred Forest, and he didn't know his specific location. ”

The lion's eyes narrowed slightly, waiting for Aisha's words.

"If the lion really wants to help that Lie Lord, he can only wait in the Sacred Forest area in advance, and when that Lie Lord arrives, he will stop him directly."

Although the lion and his party have freedom of movement, they are only within Beizhou City, and it is not allowed to leave Beizhou City. To be exact, when Richelieu and his party began touring, the lion never left Northcontinent again.

"I can send a fleet over ... As for the question of trust, as long as the lion sends Rafi, or the other ship's mother, nothing is a problem. ”

"That's right." The lion picked up a drink, drank it elegantly, thought for a moment, and said to Aisha: "Regarding Lord Lie, although he used to be Admiral Aina's old department, he has not been in contact with him for so long, and I don't know his current situation..."

The lion spoke the word that Lie commanded her... Lie didn't intend to follow Aisha's script exactly, but let Lion turn her down. In other words, weakening the relationship between Lie and Aina in Aisha's heart makes Elsa think that the lion and his party don't care too much about Lie.

"Indeed," Aisha heard the lion's words, and there was a hint of surprise in her eyes... However, he didn't show it, and followed the lion's words: "After so much time, I don't know what kind of state that Lord Lie is in now... Perhaps, it is a good choice not to contact for a while. “

Aisha chatted with the lion for a while, and Lie looked at the situation at the scene, thinking about whether to suddenly take down Aisha at this time! After Lie leaves with the lion, I'm afraid there won't be such a good opportunity.

Ryuya observed Aisha's bodyguards, and it seemed that there were no more guards except for a circle of deep sea outside and a few close guards.

Like, tonight is really easy...

…

In a city on the west side of the Beizhou Sea, an artificial ship has just left.

"Lord Molian, where are we going next?" Suiya poured wine for Mo Lian, and it looked cold at night.

Mo Lian lay on the chair, playing with three keys in her hand, and wore them together. After putting it away, Mo Lian picked up the wine glass and looked at the moon in the sky.

"Back to Beizhou City... It's time to put an end to it. ”

"Yes, Lord Molian." Hoya continued to pour wine, and it seems that he will drink a lot more tonight.

After the artificial ship sailed away for a while, the small city suddenly became lively, and many deep-sea habitat ships ran back and forth. However, these have nothing to do with Mo Lian and Suigu, who have left.

…

"Poetry Rain?" Monroe was in a good mood and found that the door to Monroe's room was open, so she walked straight in.

After entering, he found that Shi Yu was holding a piece of paper, his face was a little pale, and he seemed to be in a very bad state.

Monroe hurried to the past, but Shiyu didn't notice it... touched Shiyu's hands and forehead, it was cold, like falling into an ice cellar. It took a lot of effort for a glimmer of brilliance to appear in Shiyu's dull eyes.

"They, it's them!" After Shiyu saw that it was Monroe, she shivered and hid in her arms, crying, very scared and frightened.
