Chapter 222: The Difference Between Branch and Main Lines......
Watching Li Xingke leave, some of the sharp-eyed soldiers had a strange face, if they were not mistaken, one of Lord Xingke's hands seemed to have a shiny ...... There is also a smell of roast chicken.
They are old oilers, and they tacitly choose to ignore this detail.
When he came to the place where the paper ball was written, Li Xingke still had Xu Shu tangled and puzzled on his face, after all, the place written on the paper ball was too ...... Elementary school students!
When you are not familiar with Zhu Forbidden City? He could walk everywhere with his eyes closed!
What is the route of turning 500 meters to the right and then 200 meters to the left, is it a game?
The atmosphere that was originally quite strict was destroyed under the description of the location of this elementary school student's way.
When he arrived at the place, he saw a slightly flustered green long-haired girl, and the panic on her face was not pretended.
"I really like to run around." When Li Xingke was about to speak, his eyes suddenly widened and he saw a black crack of more than two meters open next to the green-haired girl, and after the crack opened, a teenager came out of it, and the young man was still holding a little black cat with a hanging head in his hand, "Be careful of being caught as a guinea pig." β
The boy knocked on the little black cat's head, wiped the grease off its mouth, and put it into the arms of the green-haired girl, "Good evening, little brother." β
Nine Lives greeted the black-haired man with a smile.
ββ¦β¦ Monster? After a moment of silence, he asked in a calm and deep voice, one hand already resting on the saber that never left him.
"Huh? Why don't you ask if it's a god? β
"The words of the gods will not sit back and watch the country become miserable because of corruption, right?" Li Xingke squinted his eyes slightly, and his eyes became quite sharp.
It's very courageous, Li Xing's engraved watch makes Jiu Ming's smile even worse, and this courage alone is very rare.
"Well~ Maybe there's a reason why I can't do it." Nine Lives said with a smile.
"And what's the point of your presence here?"
"Heh, maybe we can do it now."
Li Xingke's eyebrows raised slightly, and the hand that was tightly gripping the hilt of the sword was released, "What do you want to do?" β
Nine Lives smiled mysteriously, "It must be in a way that you can't understand." It doesn't matter what I want to do, the key is what can you do to make me do it? β
ββ¦β¦ As long as I can restore the Federal Republic of China to normal, I can pay whatever price I can. β
"Including your life?"
"Of course!" Li Xingke's expression was very firm, and he replied without the slightest hesitation, but he felt a little regretful in his heart, if he died, the agreement with the Son of Heaven would not be fulfilled.
"Very well, how about sending me a hundred death row inmates tomorrow?"
βοΌ What do you want to do? Li Xingke asked a little guardedly, the table of the Nine Lives is really too weird, and it involves human things. He couldn't help but be unvigilant, and whether the words of the Nine Lives were true or false still needs to be explored and practiced.
"Ahem, reintroduction, I'm not a monster or a human, you call me a mysterious merchant...... Feed! Your eyes! β
Halfway through speaking, Jiu Ming saw the color in Li Xingke's eyes as if he was looking at the second elder middle, "If it weren't for your pleasing eyes, you thought that a big country could change at this price?" β
"I don't believe you." Exhaled, Li Xingke said bluntly and frankly. "Maybe you have the ability to change the status quo of the Chinese Federation, but I don't want to give the Chinese Federation a bigger hidden danger."
"Ahhh~ Don't worry, I'm not interested in what you say, I promise. Your worries will never arise, with the credibility of my mysterious merchant. β
ββ¦β¦ Three days, at least three days, you want too many death row inmates. Li Xingke let out another long exhale. Said in a deep voice.
βOKοΌ So is the deal confirmed? Nine Lives tilted his head slightly and asked rhetorically.
"Sure!" Although he didn't know why Nine Lives was doing this, Li Xingke still nodded. Maybe the mysterious boy in front of him is a turning point, maybe it's a disaster...... But let him wait for the opportunity to completely eradicate the eunuchs, then I don't know what year and month it will take, and his health will ......
"See you in three days." Nine Lives smiled, and left directly after saying where he lived, leaving Li Xingke standing in place with a strange look on his face, just the way Nine Lives left with that weird crack showed his extraordinary, but it was just ...... He's living where he's so much, isn't it?
He also thought that the place where Jiu Ming lived was a strange place with strange mountains and rivers, but it turned out to be a hotel that was also quite famous in Zhu Forbidden City?
Rubbing his eyebrows, tonight's experience is really special, he needs to discuss it with his subordinates, and a hundred death row prisoners are not easy to get, let alone let those eunuchs see anything abnormal.
As for finding some prisoners who are not death row inmates? Li Xing had a hunch that this was the most unwise thing to do.
That's the only way to sneak into the treasure house silently, and he's really still a sneaker here!
Shaking his head, it was already impossible to investigate the crime of the nine lives, and then he had to make some preparations to deal with it after three days, he was not naΓ―ve enough to have all his trust in that mysterious and weird guy just because of his words, so it was necessary to make some preparations.
Even if these preparations may end up being wasted, they may still be used.
The stakes are heavy, and it must not come so-so.
"Strange...... It's useless. Jiu Ming looked at his palm with a puzzled expression, he and Li Xingke already had a new 'transaction contract', why didn't the repulsion on his body still not decrease much...... No, it hasn't decreased at all, it's still slowly increasing.
In other words, his method is of no use at all, it shouldn't be, what went wrong?
Nine Lives frowned, unable to figure out what exactly caused this to happen, but one thing is for sure, finding someone else to do some hired transactions in a certain world will not affect the initial transaction.
This time too, too, I used to help that Misaka sister, too, ~ He still remembers the joking 'deal' with the star-eyed girl quite clearly.
Hmm, is it the difference between a branch line and a main story?
Shaking his head, he found that this was not a loss.
"What's wrong? Always have something on your mind? Gently touching C.C's long hair, Nine Lives asked.
C.C shook his head, "I feel like I've been in a dull mood...... Sorry to worry you. β
ββ¦β¦ Rest early. Opening his mouth, Jiu Ming suddenly couldn't find anything to say, squeezed out a reluctant smile, he pinched C.C's cheek, "Have a good dream." β
Good dreams?
A different wave flashed in C.C's eyes, and she wanted to say something frankly, but she endured it again.
"Is your blessing so harmful?" Feeling the sudden increase in the strength of the arms holding her neck, Jiu Ming opened her eyes, turned her head to look at C.C, who was sleeping with her eyes closed, her face was very pale now, her body was trembling slightly, and the whole person was even more tightly attached to Jiu Ming.
Had a nightmare, it was.
Patting C.C's back, Nine Lives gently hugged her.
The next day, C.C., who opened her eyes, saw the face of Nine Lives close at hand, her face suddenly turned red, and after noticing that she was shrinking into Nine Lives' arms like a bird, she immediately moved her body, "That, I ...... it"
"It's fine." Jiu Ming gently touched her head, "Be cheerful, it's easy to have nightmares if you're in a bad mood." β
"......" C.C lowered his head and was silent for a while, then suddenly shook his head, "Actually, what I dreamed of was ...... What is Geass? I dreamed that I would have this kind of thing. β
"It's just a dream, don't worry about it." Jiu Ming sat beside her and laughed softly, comforting her, "Let's go have lunch first." β
"Huh!? Is it already noon? Hearing the time of the Nine Lives, C.C immediately exclaimed, "It's too gaffe to get up so late......
"Aha~ It's a trivial matter." Nine Lives smiled and shook his head, thinking about something else.
Dreaming of Geass, her lost memories began to revival? Or is it just a dream?
"Alas......" let out a long exhale, is this a test for yourself?
Nine Lives are worried here, and some people on the other side are also hesitating about some things, what they are discussing is about Nine Lives, a topic led by Li Xingke, for his narration, although it is very mysterious, there is no one present who does not believe it.
They knew Li Xingke's character very well, and it was absolutely impossible for him, who usually didn't smile, to call them all over and make such nonsensical jokes.
"But why would he want to be on death row?" A woman next to Li Xingke asked puzzledly, her name is Zhou Xianglin, the assistant officer trusted by Li Xingke's boxlist.
"I don't know, but now we may be facing an opportunity, or we may die on a cliff from which there is no turning back." Li Xingke said in a deep voice, there have been changes in Britannia, but I don't know what means the new emperor will use to calm the chaos that will occur in Britannia.
Now that there is a new person in charge, the shape of the international community has once again become unclear, and although the Chinese Federation can now survive for a while by relying on its huge foundation, once it encounters a huge change, it will obviously accelerate the process of decay of the Chinese Federation.
What they lack most is time, even though he has been planning a military coup for a long time, but because of the power of the eunuchs, his plan has developed very slowly, is there a turning point now?
On the third day, Jiumei received a letter, and after reading it, he asked C.C beside him, "Do you want to go together?" β
After hesitating for a moment, she directly hugged Jiu Ming's arm, originally thinking that Jiu Ming went out to do something very important, and she shouldn't get involved, but another uneasy feeling made her change her decision that was not in line with her current personality.
"Don't be nervous, let's go."
After comforting C.C., Nine Lives took her out of the hotel where she was staying. (To be continued......)
