"Please wait a moment, the contemptible person will go and invite the young lady."

In the reception room, Xue Qiong slumped comfortably on the soft leather sofa and let out a comfortable "ah". You know, people in this world are poor to death, and the last time he had this kind of enjoyment was on the day he was "recruited" by the mayor of New Seattle.

As for Cankilo, he unceremoniously reached for the fruit bowl on the coffee table. It's not a particularly good thing, but these fresh grapes picked from the lakeside farm during the day can at least fill the empty stomach a little.

Although the butler's behavior was full of grooves, even in Canquillo's eyes, these still couldn't hide his own "anomaly". But he didn't even bother to ask Xue Qiong how much he had in his heart, and he didn't care about this guy's ability to switch accents in a second, anyway, even if Xue Qiong never said it directly, he didn't treat Xue Qiong as the "aborigine" of this world from the beginning...

Picking them up one by one, Canquillo had just sent half a bunch of grapes to his stomach, and the butler had already pushed open the carved wooden door of the black walnut again, gently closed it, and asked unhurriedly: "Miss asked the two, have you had dinner before?" ”

Xue Qiong stood up and shook his head, while Canquillo patted his belly directly and said, "Hungry!" ”

"Come in, two." The housekeeper opened the wooden door again, and finally said by the way, "This gentleman, in front of the young lady, please have a little more self-respect." ”

Canquillo turned his head away, but his style was a little more restrained. Even if he had already regarded this place as a tiger's den in Longtan, at least in front of the lady, he still didn't want to be too presumptuous.

Xue Qiong, on the other hand, walked into the restaurant and saw the familiar face on the other end of the long table covered with white cloth, a little relief appeared in her expression, but the joy was basically put away, she just bowed slightly, touched her chest with her left hand and received it behind her back with her right hand, and said in a very gentlemanly, deliberately very contrived British accent: "I'm here." ”

Sitting there was undoubtedly Xiao Yun.

Xiao Yun is even more "Xiao Yun" than the previous Xiao Yun, she is a little taller, there is a lot more fat in some places, her hair has become completely black, the white features in her eyes, nose and mouth have disappeared, and she has basically completely returned to her original appearance.

She wore her favorite white dress, still without a hint of frills, and didn't need any jewelry to give her a little tacky. In Xue Qiong's eyes, her purity and immaculate nature was already very familiar to him, and even if he tried his best to be wary of his male instincts, he still inevitably felt a sense of peace of mind.

And at such a close distance, the magic power on Xue Qiong's body no longer needed to pass through the "intermediary" role of the Holy Grail system, and directly branched out a trickle to her body, and he could even directly "see" the thin line of magic between the two.

Judging by her appearance, she has at least adopted some method to completely eliminate the element of "Artoria" in this world, and the total amount and activity of magic power have not shown signs of declining, or even smoother, it seems that she has almost solved her own problems, and it is no wonder that Lu Ziqiao can make a judgment to let him come here.

However, when Xue Qiong thought of this, the girl on the other side of the long table only smiled slightly awkwardly, and even expressed a little displeasure at Xue Qiong's direct gaze, "Welcome, two gentlemen whose names I don't know yet." ”

Rao is Xue Qiong also showed a stunned look in an instant, and he said almost reflexively: "Kung Pao Chicken...?" ”

This is called a "safe word", which is used to express "you are about to play with me to death, stop first" between two people who have agreed to do all kinds of strange PLAY, otherwise in some special situations, even if you shout "spare me", it may be regarded by the other party as a drama to increase the interest.

However, Xiao Yun's reaction was only to repeat a few syllables of "kongpao-jidin" with a strange emphasis in the English translation of the alto, and then said: "What a strange name, Mr. Chicken Ding... So who is this one? ”

"Cankilo."

"Okay, thank you both for introducing yourself. I am the owner of this castle, Flo Bilta Aversted. In the days to come, we will have to rely on the protection of the two. ”

"You may be seated, Mr. Chicken, Mr. Canquillo. Coarse tea and light rice are not a tribute. ”

"Thank you."

Xue Qiong covered her mouth with one hand, as if rubbing her index finger against her upper lip, which had grown a lot of stubble, actually blocking the separated lips and rubbing her upper and lower teeth, and frowned at the same time.

Xiaoyun's performance is clearly "root-root-just-not-recognize-know-him", and it doesn't even look like he is acting at all!!

"She" even felt that Xue Qiong's performance was a little frivolous!!

Ignoring the things in front of him that could already be called delicacies (actually bread made of bacon, cheese and white flour) in Yuanhu Town, Xue Qiong muttered in an undetectable voice: "Hey, isn't it..."

"You've learned?"

"You're gambling with everything you have..."

Of course, Xue Qiong didn't believe that Lu Ziqiao dared to do anything like memory manipulation to Xiao Yun, and he had already asked about the fact that he had been sleeping in this world for two years, judging from the fact that he had just woken up and Xiao Yun had entered the world in this Yazula Star, Xiao Yun should have come in voluntarily.

Then, Xiao Yun's current performance is already very easy to guess, that is, he Xue Qiong was already very proficient in the practice before he became a reincarnation - personality reconstruction plan!!

"The best acting skills are that the actors themselves don't know that they are in the play"!!

As one of the people closest to Xue Qiong, she certainly knew what Xue Qiong had done to her, and she was a psychological professional herself.

I don't know for what reason, she actually relied on the gourd to draw a scoop, used self-hypnosis, and maybe even sought Lu Ziqiao's cooperation, completely shielded and hid her original memories (she couldn't be stupid enough to delete them) in the background, creating a new personality, and completely integrating into a certain "drama" in this world...

Crazy, really crazy, even if he Xue Qiong is the most unqualified person to say this, at this time he wants to shout this sentence out loud.

Shocked, distressed, appreciative, worried, Xue Qiong rarely had such a complicated mood, but what happened in the next second made his mood even higher...

But because I got a little more information, I knew a lot in my heart.

I saw Xiaoyun, no, it should be said that it was "Miss Flo" got up elegantly and shouted behind her: "Sister, it's time to eat~~"

"Here we go!"

In the shadow of the corridor at the other end of the restaurant, another petite figure emerged, arranging his clothes, and walked towards this side, while saying, "I am writing a letter to Mr. Mayor, the residents of Roundlake Town should have more... Yes! Got guests? ”

"Rude, I'm Artoria Bilta Pendragon."

Yes, although it seems that Canquillo has not been in contact with this product before the crossing, in Xue Qiong's eyes, this blonde and blue-eyed aristocratic girl who suddenly appeared and was unaware of the sudden visitor, but was extremely sensitive to the word "open rice", from the outside, is a complete Saber - Artoria Pendragon!!

Judging from the imposed and identical middle name, it seems to have inherited the mother's surname, and the setting of "half-father"?!

The "illegitimate daughter" brought her own family after recognizing each other?!

Moreover, it is also because it is close enough in the strong yin qi, from Xue Qiong's energy perspective, although this "Artoria" is still very normal from the appearance that can be seen by the naked eye, and even perfectly reproduces the regular clothes in the original work - a simple white shirt, a blue midi skirt and black stockings, which sets off the noble and clean, but makes people want to protect unconditionally and even follow the temperament...

However, in Xue Qiong's vision, this "Artoria" seems to be extremely weird: even if her behavior is very vivid, she also does not feel the slightest "anger" on her body, and in the magic circuit that has energy flowing and covers the whole body, only the chest and heart are blank, like a big hollow, shocking!!

What kind of existence is this?!

Even if it is an undead creature, if the "heart" part is completely hollowed out, it will be wiped out in minutes!!

But Xue Qiong thought of another possibility.

"Bai Jingjing??"

Yes, a lot of things have been explained.

Xiao Yun actually nourished her corpse, her heart by the causal weapon of the god's personality, and the irreparable corpse was forcibly nourished in this yin-filled environment, making it a "spirit" like an existence in oriental mythology!!

The analogy of the practical white bone spirit is also not appropriate, it is more similar to the phenomenon in the mythology of Toei - combs, umbrellas, cabinets, musical instruments and the like can become essences, or in that parlance, "Fu Fu God", forcibly using his own corpse that cannot be resurrected by any conventional necromancy as an "object" and making it become a spirit.

After her corpse became a sperm, she gained her own consciousness, and Xiao Yun had an inevitable connection with her corpse through her resurrected self in the form of a soul, as well as the causal weapon that had long been buried in the corpse - the scabbard "Avalon", and some concepts belonging to Saber that had not been completely stripped away by Lu Ziqiao gradually transferred the part of her heroic body that belonged to "Artoria"... It was the final creation of this heartless Artoria!

While the thoughts were going on in her mind, Xue Qiong still didn't change on the surface, but just saluted Miss Artoria seriously and introduced herself again.

And when dinner finally began, and Yu Guang caught a glimpse of Artoria's hungry ghost like Canquillo, the doubts in Xue Qiong's mind continued.

Why do you have to give up your own memories when you can do this kind of thing, when you can do it directly?

A voice that was like himself, but not quite like himself, suddenly sounded in his consciousness.

"Because, it's [fun]..."
