“…… It stinks enough. Splashing the last bucket of water on the ground, the blazing light sent out, dispelling the last traces of filth, and the Paladin Captain wiped a drop of sweat from his face and looked around.

Since Lord Clement has given the order, it must be carried out to the letter, the explosion site has been completely cleared, and the rubble has been put aside, but this toilet seems to be unusable for a short time.

"If you want to fix it, it will probably take more time, and there is no point in spreading people to do this kind of thing in such an emergency." The team leader turned to his subordinates and said, "After all, most of the residents and believers have moved out, and the public toilets are no longer of much use. ”

"You have a point, Captain." The honest man, who was nearly two meters tall, lifted a collapsed boulder, placed it firmly on the stone pile, and clapped his hands, "Since that's the case, let's close this place......

"But......" The captain turned his gaze to the other side - the toilet was only half blown off, that is, the part of the men's toilet, and the women's toilet on the other side was almost not affected or destroyed in any way, looking at the standing women's toilet, the paladin's eyes flashed a trace of embarrassment, "I don't know if there is a danger of explosion in the women's toilet...... Because of the etiquette of a knight and the conduct of a gentleman, it would be rude for us to enter without permission as men......"

"Otherwise......," his subordinate rubbed his hands together and said, "Would you like to ask Priest Belinda to come in and have a look?" ”

"No way!" The captain flatly refused, "Priest Belinda is not a paladin, and has no relevant reconnaissance training. I don't have any experience in dealing with emergencies, so it's too dangerous......"

He wasn't done yet. Sensing the playful gaze of his subordinates, his face turned red. For a moment, he was embarrassed and angry: "Pounda, believe it or not, I ordered you to go in and have a look?" ”

The two-meter-tall honest man actually joked with his boss: "Captain, this is an unreasonable order, I won't obey it, since you are worried about Priest Belinda, why don't you go in with her?" ”

The remaining three members of the knights' squad heard the jokes and arguments between them, and they also put down their work and watched the excitement with a smile on their faces—they all knew about the captain's careful thoughts about Priest Belinda.

But at this moment. There was a sound of horses' hooves, and the captain who was arguing with his subordinates with a red face immediately calmed down, pressed his hand on the hilt of the sword, and listened attentively: "...... Listen to the sound of the horseshoe hitting the stone road, it is a heavily armed war horse equipped with the rank of knight chief, keep on guard, and then prepare to greet, pay attention, the person who comes should be the senior military commander of a certain knight order! ”

Under the watchful eyes of several people. A heavily armored horse galloped in, the knight on horseback was heroic, wearing light steel armor, and a strand of pink hair pouring out of the helmet tugged at the knights' heartstrings.

The war horse stopped on the side of the road. The knight jumped off his horse, took off his helmet, and strode towards the paladins. There is no need to report to the door, the clergy recognize the identity of the person who came at the first time.

The captain straightened his waist for the first time: "The Holy Sword Knights belong." Paladin Vaal Squad, I've seen Her Excellency Captain Gilly! ”

"Hello. Vaal Paladin, I am Gilly Claire, may the light shine on you and me. "I heard from the intelligence officer that there was an explosion here - you know, something similar happened yesterday...... Out of personal interest and concern, I want to come and see it, so I won't bother you. ”

"No interruption at all, please feel free!" The Vaal Knight straightened his back and shouted, his eyes and flushed cheeks showing his nervousness at the moment, even when he invited Priest Belinda to dinner—but it was clear that his men did not laugh at him for it, for they were just like him.

Ji Li nodded with a smile and thanked her, and she seemed a little impatient to look at the scene of the explosion...... The roof of the men's toilet has been blown down, and the public building has been turned into an open-air square, but the scene that should have been a mess has been cleaned up, the rubble has been swept aside, the ground has been washed away, and someone's crime scene has been destroyed.

From an angle that the paladins couldn't see, Ji Li's expression instantly became annoyed, and she said quietly, "Didn't you find anything unusual or clue when you were cleaning the scene?" ”

The captain replied forcefully, "No, Captain Kidley!" ”

The voice of the answer was full of energy, full of enthusiasm and vitality, in front of the admired knight goddess, he wanted to show his best and most capable side, so his attitude and expression must be positive!

…… You useless wastewood.

Ji Li complained coldly in her heart.

She looked at the explosion site that had been cleaned up, and the depression in her heart could be imagined, maybe these stunned young people inadvertently ruined the Sigma arrangement...... In this way, Gillie's heart was a little irritable.

Because the knight girl is not a fool, she has already realized something, such as the last time she met Sigma, Clement suddenly broke in, and the two of them had a tense atmosphere at that time...... Although the two had already had a fierce conflict because of Nina's affairs before, this time it was different, the atmosphere between Sigma and the acting Pope was extremely subtle.

It's not that they were purely disgusted with each other before, but that feelings such as jealousy, suspicion, hatred, and helplessness are mixed together.

And before that...... On the day when the black clouds overwhelmed the city, when the knights who were piloting the flying holy weapons sacrificed their lives to knock down the temple's magic guide flying machine, Sigma was the first to arrive at the scene, at that time his expression was strange, as if he knew something, and he lied, which showed this secret, he didn't want to let himself know.

Sigma came to the Holy See to prevent the Light from destroying the Holy See and protecting Cloudsdale, and all the things he did revolved around this purpose, and as a paladin, of course, he also had to say that protecting the Holy See and the Holy City was the first goal, so the goal of the two was the same, but in this case, Sigma had a secret that he didn't want to let him know...... What's the secret? Good guess. I didn't want to guess, but I had to.

And the most crucial thing is...... Sigma sent her a message in a stealthy way.

From the first day of the group. subconsciously blocked himself behind him and protected himself. Never allow yourself to fight alongside him...... She hated his machismo and self-righteousness, and was touched by his gentleness and thoughtfulness, but there was one thing she could not change to this day - the man named Sigma had become accustomed to fighting alone, keeping his companions at bay.

She felt that she would not be able to change Sigma's problem for a long time.

Until today...... Sigma sent a message to her in a way that only the two of them could understand.

Bombed a small public toilet in a remote area with five floors and no victims...... Whether it's a shrewd and wise man as a legendary powerhouse, or countless ordinary priests who have been through a lot of battles and have been experienced. No one could detect anything wrong from this strange accident, and at this moment, apart from Atlas's group of necromancers who had suffered from someone, only Ji Li in Cloudsdale could detect a strong sense of disobedience from this small incident.

Sigma never fried pointless, let alone a small toilet in such a remote city.

He must have done so with deep meaning...... Just as Gilly sensed the disobedience in the first place, Sigma must have been convinced that the Knight Maiden would pay attention to it when she heard the news. And perceived the clues from the details, and guessed that there must be something strange about this matter, so he rushed to the scene to obtain the information and clues quietly left by Sigma!

This is the tacit understanding between the necromancer and the paladin. It is a strong bond forged by the two during the long journey!

"......" fuck, Jili cursed in her heart...... Speaking of what tacit understanding, what strong bonding. Why doesn't there be any girl's feelings and warmth in my heart at this moment, but a little sadness?

So...... The old lady doesn't want to establish a tacit understanding and bond with you about the judgment of fried!

If there's no one around. Ji Li will definitely look up to the sky and roar unwillingly, and vent the grievances and anguish in her heart loudly - how many years. I finally caught a favorite Kaizi, it's just a necromancer, it's just a pervert, it's just a bastard who prefers excess fat on the chest with no beauty and no use...... But why does this guy like to blow and choose to use fried to deliver messages, and the old lady actually understands it!?

…… But no matter what, there is both joy and worry in my heart.

Happily, Sigma sent a message to her in such a subtle way at such a moment, it must have asked her to do something, in other words, in the heart of the necromancer, Jili Claire is a trusted and trustworthy partner, not just a protected character, and she is happy to be relied on and asked by Sigma.

The concern is...... She knows Sigma very well, such a guy, he will not lend a hand to others until the last resort, he always has a strange stubbornness, he is used to solving a problem by himself, this time he has something to ask himself, it proves that he has reached the point where he has no time to take care of him...... Isn't it indicative to hear that he has been with Mistress Clement lately......

The girl's heart beat violently like a drum, and an extremely ridiculous thought suddenly jumped out of her mind and entrenched itself in her mind like a poisonous snake—the thought was so vicious and outrageous that when Ji Li thought about it, her heart would be filled with guilt and absurdity, how could that kind of thing happen, even if you just think about it, it is the blasphemy and depravity of Yan zhòng, how could such a thing happen......

After all...... After all...... That's ...... after all

Noticing the surprised gazes of the paladins, Ji Li finally came back to her senses, and the captain asked cautiously, "Captain Ji Li, your face seems to be a little unpleasant, is it because you are tired of the Order's affairs, so that you lack rest?" Do you need to ask a priest for treatment? Our team's Captain Belinda is very good at this......"

Kelly shook her head, but a hint of disappointment floated in her heart...... It's a good thing that Sigma trusts himself and asks him to fight alongside him, however, he seems to have made some mistakes, the explosion site was cleaned up, and even if he left a clue, he was inadvertently destroyed by the paladins, what should I do......

But the next moment, a flash of inspiration flashed through the girl's mind...... Wait a minute! This guy is so cunning, and he has to hide this matter from Clement's ears and eyes, it must have been carefully planned and calculated, how could there be negligence in such a link?

And after the explosion, the nearby paladins will come to check it anyway, and if they come to check, it is possible to pay attention to or destroy the clues he left behind, how could a cunning guy like Sigma not think of this!

Ji Li frowned and looked around, if you want to hide from everyone, then the clue must be in everyone's blind spot, that is......

She turned her gaze to the men's toilet, which was largely undamaged.

She seemed to think of something, and a look of shock flashed in her eyes.

No, it won't......

She took a deep breath and turned to say, "Vaal Knight, have you gone in this toilet to check it?" ”

"Not really, Captain." Val was a little embarrassed and bowed his head, "Since the acting pope said that it was just an accident, we are busy cleaning up the scene again...... Plus, you know, we don't have female paladins in our squad, and the only female members are clerical officers who aren't specifically trained, so ......"

"I can understand, don't panic, Paladin, you did nothing wrong." Kiri sensed the other party's uneasiness and comforted her, and she smiled, "In that case, let me go in and check it out...... Just in case. ”

Val and the others hurriedly thanked him.

Gilly smiled and opened her divine shield, the pure and rich light that made the knights understand the gap between them for the first time...... The shield of light unfurled by the Holy Light of Gilly Paladin was as tough as a rock, sacred and unshakable, so that all who felt the Light could understand her strong will and determination.

"It's worthy of the iron wall of holy light......"

Gilly heard the whispers of admiration from the people behind her.

Your Sister's ...... Your wife is the iron wall, and the women of your whole family are the iron wall.

After stepping into the toilet, Jili cautiously looked around, Sigma must be extremely cautious, in order to prevent accidents, he will not leave obvious clues and messages, the information he conveys must be like the explosion, only the two of them can understand and understand...... This is based on the shared memories and bonds between the two.

Soon, Kirie found what she was looking for.

She found a faint pattern on the side wall of the first toilet on one side of the men's toilet, as if it had been engraved by some secret magic method on the other side of the toilet.

It turns out that this guy is not bad enough to sneak into the women's bathroom......

The pattern was just a cow...... It's so cutely drawn, if it weren't for Kelly's acquaintance with Sigma, she would have thought it was a cute doodle left by some clever girl.

Cows, the side wall of the first toilet bit, the first, the first ......

Dairy cattle...... One.

Cow One.

Athena.

PS1: I'm sorry, I didn't slow down, but I remembered yesterday's ...... Rest assured, everyone, I'm a strong man with two chapters and 8,000 words for 12 consecutive days, and if you're in a good state, you can simply complete it!

PS2: Ah...... I have to say one thing to you, and that's ...... Picking your nose is a bad behavior! At noon today, the sprinkler family was stir-frying, it was really boring, looking out the window while flipping through the shovel, and then digging out the nostrils...... There's nothing wrong with this action itself, the problem is that he meowed, and there were chili peppers in the dish he fried today...... Ouch, it's so sour, I can't think about it...... (To be continued......)
