Even though they didn't say anything, the people of Balian all noticed that something was not quite right with Squaro and Hernie, who had returned from Japan.

Mammon suddenly remembered that the day Squaro and Herney had returned, they had not taken a special plane as they had done, but had returned in Penglie's car. But their attention was focused on the two people who didn't look right, so they ignored that.

In other words, have they been to Pengle's headquarters before?

But it's nothing, after all, this time it was the people from Pengle's headquarters that had a problem, and it was normal for Squaro to report the mission to the ninth generation.

But connect Squaro and Herney, who seem to be preoccupied.

Is it something that happened between the two of them?

I just don't know if it happened when I was in Japan, or if something happened at Pengler's headquarters.

As the only person in Balian who knows the true identity of Hernessers, Mammon says that she really cares about the matter between Hernie and Squaro.

Of course, it wasn't because he had a bad conscience—the existence of such a thing was a question for the Balians—in fact, because having something to do with Hernie was tantamount to profitable.

For example, when Hernie slammed Bell against the wall, he slashed a certain prince afterwards.

Another example is the case of Gabrigne, from the rich man who jumped the horse, he also gained a lot of benefits.

In return, there's nothing wrong with him caring about the relationship between Herney and Squaro.

Maybe it will bring him more benefits - that's the point.

However, on the third day of Hernie's return, when he quietly ran to ask Hernie the truth, he was vaguely used by Hernie in various ways.

"No, nothing happened," she said, as she had done every previous afternoon without a task, sipping afternoon tea in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of her room, on which was an open laptop tumbling with data that reminded Marmon of Verdi, who was also Alc-Barreno.

Hernie drank black coffee that didn't add anything, her eyes stayed on the screen without taking her eyes off, "Ah, yes. ”

Hernie put the cup down and turned to look at Mammon who was drinking lemon tea - she had a hunch that Mammon would come to her today, so she had prepared it for him before Mammon came.

"I'll be out of Balian in four days," she said nonchalantly, as if to say that the sun was shining today.

Mammon paused as she drank tea, then looked up at Herney, who could imagine what Mammon was like at this point, even though her hood had obscured half of her face so that Herney couldn't see his eyes.

After a while, when Hernie's eyes returned to the computer screen, Mammon slowly spoke, "I don't see any progress between you and Squaro. ”

As a bystander, he did not notice any improvement in the relationship between Squaro and Herney after returning from Japan.

Even for more than half a year in total, Hernie looked like she hadn't achieved anything at all, except for Squaro's recognition as a companion.

However, the Gabrione incident a few months ago still shows that Squaro should have cared a little about Henie.

Just a little bit, of course.

"Ah, indeed......" Hernie nodded, her hands tapping on the keyboard, "It's a long way from my original plan." ”

She had originally intended to chase Squaro in this era, but now she didn't even have a spark.

Only that little spark was extinguished with the heavy rain at the end of the summer festival.

But in retrospect, it's a good thing that there hasn't been progress. She was always going to leave this era, but at the same time, she also believed that she would never tell Squaro who she really was, no matter what.

Chasing Squaro in his hands, not telling him anything, leaving this place and the era without a sound, felt like cheating Squaro's feelings.

It's better to stay at the level of a companion at the beginning.

It makes sense when you think about it this way.

But for the sake of Squaro giving her so many good memories, and because it was also her personal wish, she had to give Squaro a return gift before leaving.

A gift that would make Squaro feel like the summer festival he gave her.

"Then why did you decide to go back so quickly?" For a moment, Mammon found herself unable to keep up with Hernesses' thoughts.

Is it really the boss's daughter? Even the ideas are different from ordinary people.

Hey, this doesn't have anything to do with whether or not xanxus's daughter is half-haired, right? Besides, Mammon, you're not an ordinary person!

"Go back?" Hernie raised the corners of her mouth and drew a nice arc, "I didn't tell you I was going back, Mammon, when did you hear me say I was going back?" I just said I'm leaving Balian. ”

It's not that she's bad, it's just that she thinks it's actually quite funny to bully Mammon as Alcbarreno once in a while.

"Then you ......"

Her hands stopped what she had done before, and Hernie looked at Mammon with a smile in her red eyes for a moment, "Penglie headquarters, in four days, the nine generations will send someone to pick me up and take me to Pengley headquarters." ”

Mammon's expression seemed to change, "Penglie headquarters? Hernie, you ......."

"Don't worry, I never thought of doing anything bad to Balian," Henny continued with a smile after taking a sip of black coffee to refresh herself.

She actually likes to see people startled, although Mammon's face doesn't look impactful, "Speaking of which, this is for you...... Especially for Squaro and Levy, it's still a good thing...... To be precise, it should be a happy event. ”

"It's a good thing to be able to make the two of them think it......" Mammon's expression looked a little tangled, "Could it be ......?"

Hernie smiled, put the coffee cup on the plate, and then stood up and looked at the garden scenery through the floor-to-ceiling window, the golden light shining on her body was unbelievably soft, "Well, it's something that will make everyone in Balian happy." ”

"Could it be ......?"

In Mammon's voice mixed with surprise, Hernie turned her head to look at him with a smile, "It's about your boss, my dear father." ”

Although she thought that it would be this answer, Marmon still felt a little incredulous when she said it through Hernie's mouth, "How did you do it?" Does Squaro know about this? If it's you...... privately"

"You've got too many questions, Mammon, and that's a bit out of your usual calm appearance," Hernie leaned against the floor-to-ceiling window, "but can I see that you're too excited?" ”

Although it was a ridiculous word, Hernie's expression was also dyed with some rare tenderness like the sunshine, "Squaro doesn't know about this, although I am 100% sure, but it will not be done in a while, it may take a little time." ”

Mammon quickly regained his previous composure, "Time is not an issue. ”

Compared to the previous seven years of aimless waiting, this time is not an issue.

"Do you believe in me like that?" Hernie chuckled, "The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment." ”

Hearing Hernie's words as if she was deliberately pouring cold water, Mammon also laughed along with her, "The boss will eventually come back, Henieshers, otherwise how could you be born." ”

Hernie seemed to be choked by Mammon's words, and her eyes rolled around, "Aren't you afraid that it's a parallel world?" There are so many 'ifs' in this world. ”

"If it was a parallel world, you wouldn't have stayed in the first place, would you? What's more, staying for half a year is "Speaking of which, Mammon is not a vegetarian, and he must have something special to become one of Alc-Barreno."

What's more, he is also one of Balian's rare minds, how could he be caught in by Henie, "You don't look like the kind of person who would waste time on meaningless things, Henie. ”

Whether it is Xanxus or Saiwei, who has only been in contact with them for half a year, they are the kind of people who do things simply.

"You're worthy of you, Mammon," the smile on Herney's face finally deepened, "Indeed, I know that 'here' is the past of my time. In other words, the future of 'here' is the era in which I live. ”

She sat back in her previous position, letting the sun pour down on her face and body, "Don't worry, I'll bring your boss back as a reward for spending such a wonderful time in Balian." ”

"I can promise you that if he doesn't come back, I won't go back."

The girl's face similar to that of her mother was filled with indelible determination, "This is my promise." ”

"If that's what you say, I'll be relieved," Mammon hesitated for a moment, then nodded, "I can trust you, Heni." ”

"Who else can you trust but me?" Drinking the little black coffee left in one gulp, Hernie looked at Mammon who was silently drinking lemon tea while pouring another cup for herself, "By the way, Mammon, have you been to Dad's office in the past seven years?" ”

Mammon glanced at her, "No, the boss's office has been closed since that incident seven years ago, and it hasn't been opened until now. ”

"Huh?" Hernie looked at him in surprise, "Didn't even Squaro go in?" ”

"I don't know," replied Mammon quickly, without much thought, "he will not allow anyone to go in, nor will he himself go in." What's wrong? Why did you suddenly remember to ask this? ”

Hernie lowered her gaze, "No, nothing...... It just occurred to me. ”

She only suddenly remembered what her mother had told her that when she left Balian, she had left the glasses on her father's desk in the Balian headquarters.

"By the way, please don't tell anyone, not including Squaro, about what I just told you," Hernie said suddenly.

Mammon hesitated, but finally nodded, "I see." ”

After a moment, as if he remembered something again, he watched as Hernie suddenly threw out a question, "Does Squaro know about this?" I mean, you're going to Pengle. ”

Hernie was silent for a long time, "Well, I told Squaro on the way back to Balian that day. ”

Oh...... I see.

As for the relationship between the two, why it became so delicate after a mission to Japan, Mammon can be regarded as understanding a little, but it is just ......

"Why do you have to go to Pengle's headquarters? Also, it's not that simple to get the boss out, is it? ”

It's really sharp, Herney sighed softly in her heart, it seems that she can't hide it from Mammon.

"Because it's a deal," she said a little vaguely, "it's easier for me to move in Pengle, and it's ...... Sooner or later, I'm going to say goodbye to you and Squaro, aren't I? Besides, I'm not going to meet my dad in this era. ”

Once she had completed her three missions and received news of her father's return to Balian, she set off for home.

"It's really okay to say goodbye if it's not good?" Mammon asked, in fact, Squaro didn't care about Heni, he saw this clearly, "You don't have any weight in his heart, Heney." ”

"But in Squaro's heart, especially in Squaro's heart now, which is more important than me and my father, I think you know more than me, right?" Hernie smiled and said it calmly, as if it had nothing to do with her.

She turned her head and looked out the window at the clear blue sky, "It's actually a really good deal to exchange a Henissus who will leave sooner or later for the return of the boss who has been waiting for seven years." ”

"I seem to understand a little bit of why you're here," Marmon chuckled, "and then I'll wait for your good news." ”

Hernie smiled, "I'm going to be stressed if you're looking forward to it so much." ”

Mammon didn't respond to Heni's claims of truth or falsehood, "But I think you should say goodbye to Squaro." ”

"It's not like yours to be so sensual, and we don't need to say goodbye," she murmured, her gaze changing, "the joy of the boss's return will dilute everything, including parting. ”

Henie finally didn't get a chance to say goodbye to Squaro.

Didn't even get a chance to say an informal goodbye to Squaro.

The night before Kudaime sent someone to pick her up, Squaro seemed to have received an urgent mission, and left Balian with Bell overnight, while Hernie was taking a shower, and by the time she got the news, it was already early the next morning.

They finally didn't even see each other for the last time.

Sitting in the car sent by the ninth generation, Herni turned her head to look at Balian who was getting farther and farther away, and suddenly understood her mother's mood back then.

On the night of her arrival in Pengle, Hernie set out on the first "impossible mission" of the Nine Generations of Pieda.

Actually, it's not that Kuyome is incomprehensible, it's just that this is Herney's request when she left that day, saying that she has been resting in Balian for a week, and it is a waste of time to rest in Pengledo for a few days, so it is better to use it to complete the task, so that her father can come out early.

Besides, if it is an "impossible task", it should be a task that Penglie has been backlogged for a long time, but there is no suitable person to carry it out, and it is rare for someone to volunteer, so it should naturally be completed as soon as possible.

It's not good for everyone if it drags on for a long time.

Kuyome couldn't resist Hernie, and finally reluctantly agreed.

Hernie's first mission was to settle the nineteen branches of the Alpha family in Italy within thirty days.

Alpha and Penglie were originally on the same page, and there was an incident of a fight between Alpha and Penglie more than seven years ago...... After all, that incident had something to do with Hernie.

At that time, Squaro's men rebelled and colluded with Miro, the manager of the third branch of the Alpha Clan, and her mother took Squaro's place on this mission.

Speaking of which, when she first came to this era, she was also designed by Squaro for a mission related to Alpha.

Thinking about it, she won a big victory in that mission, and she didn't get any ostracism in Balian after that.

It's just that she didn't expect that the three "impossible tasks" she promised to the ninth generation were actually related to Alpha.

Hernie really didn't know whether to say that their family and Alpha were destined, or that Alpha and their family's aura did not match, and they were destined to be planted in the hands of their family.

But in thirty days...... That is, it is indeed not an easy task to solve the nineteen branches of Alpha within a month, and it is no wonder that the Nine Generations will not send this task for a long time.

After all, there are only twenty branches of Alpha, and the third division has been eliminated by her last time.

Even if all the guardians of the Nine Generations and all the high-level leaders of the Balian join forces, there may be a certain risk. What's more, Balian has a mission at any time - like Squaro who suddenly received a mission that night - and it is impossible for everyone to pounce on one mission.

Walking in the night, Hernie sighed silently, and then hurried to the nearest branch in one breath.

>>>

On the twenty-ninth day of Herni's mission, Kuyome sat in the office, looking at the night and unable to fall asleep for a long time.

To be honest, he did regret a little that he had let Hernie go on such a dangerous mission, but this task was unanimously approved by the other guardians.

He was the leader after all, and it wasn't his decision to let Xanxus out, and his guardians were all dissatisfied with the child, which reached its peak seven years ago with the Cradle Incident.

So when they heard that someone - Kuyome didn't tell them that person was Xanxus' future daughter - was going to save Xanxus with three "impossible missions", the first mission that was passed was the one that Hernie was now performing.

Aside from the news from the Intelligence Group that all branches of Alpha had been wiped out overnight, Kuyome was unable to confirm whether Hernie was alive or dead.

Tonight passed, and after dawn was the deadline for the mission.

If Hernie doesn't come back on time, then her first mission will be considered a failure, let alone save Xanxus later.

There was a sudden commotion in the hallway, and before Kudaime could react to what was going on, he heard a knock on the door, and when he came back to his senses and let the people outside the house in, he immediately saw his guardians and a Hernie with a foul body.

"Fortunately, Kudaime," Hernie's eyes swept over the old men behind her as she said this, and then pressed a task list on Kudaime's table.

Although there was no blood on her hands, she could still faintly smell the blood.

Then she took out a bag, pressed it against the top of the task list, and continued, "This is the token of the leader of the Alpha Nineteen Divisions listed on the mission list this time, please check." ”

When Kuyome looked at Heni's expressionless face, he sighed heavily, glanced at the bag and the task list casually, and finally said with some helplessness, "Thank you, Hernie, let's go rest first." ”

"That mission ......" didn't do what Kuyome said, Hernie was more concerned about her own mission.

If she couldn't agree in front of all the guardians, wouldn't she have been busy for a month?

"This is the first mission you've completed," Kuyome looked at the Guardians behind Hernie, "You shouldn't have any opinions, right?" ”

The grumpy Arashi Mamoru frowned, but finally nodded under the gaze of the ninth generation.

"Thank you, Kudaime," Hernie still didn't have an expression...... To be honest, she was already in a trance after being busy for a month and hadn't had much rest, "Then I'll leave first." ”

By the time Hernie's figure left the office of the ninth generation, Arashi Mamoru couldn't wait to open the bag and saw a bag of rings.

"It's!"

The people in the house had seen the world, but when they saw this bag of rings, they were still a little surprised.

"It's true...... After examining the rings one by one, Arashi Shou nodded reluctantly, "These are indeed the rings held by the head of the Alpha Family branch. ”

"But speaking of which......" Rain Guard glanced at the closed door, they remembered the way the girl had just come in through the main entrance, and thought that there was another intruder like seven years ago, "what a capability, that girl." ”

Yun Shou glanced at them disdainfully, "What are you talking about, it's just a little girl." ”

"But i, if we can single-handedly solve the Alpha Nineteen Divisions in a month, how many of us can do it?" Kirimoru asked rhetorically, he was the only one among the Guardians present who knew Henie's true identity.

The others were silent.

Maybe they would have been able to do it ten or twenty years ago, but there is no guarantee that they would have been able to do it then.

"I don't know why......," Lei Shou scratched his hair, "I always felt like a person when I saw that child. ”

"Who?"

Lei Shou looked at them, then at Jiudaime, and finally sighed, "I don't know if it's my delusion, I always feel that child looks like Xanxus, especially when she appeared with a murderous aura just now, don't you feel this way." ”

The rest of the Guardians looked at him for a long time, then rolled their eyes in unison and replied in unison, "Nonsense. ”

"Nine, you don't know exactly why that kid wants to save Xanxus," Yun Shou turned to look at Kuyome who had a wry smile on his face.

"The old man does know, but I'm sorry, I promised this kid that I wouldn't tell anyone," Kuyome sighed, "but I think you'll find out the reason soon." ”

"That being said, the next two missions still have to be continued, after all, just letting Xanxus out like this can't convince the public."

Kuyome nodded and sat back in his chair, "If you can, I still hope that the kid won't be hurt too much." ”

The six Guardians looked at each other and finally nodded, "I see." ”

Kuyome is still very concerned, whether it's Xanxus or the girl just now.

It seems that the next two tasks, they are better to converge. 166 Reading Network
