A comfortable day.

It seemed that Lin Bai's prayers had an effect, and nothing happened from early morning to evening on this day, and everything seemed uneventful and calm.

For Lin Bai, this kind of daily life is precious.

After experiencing a series of events, he himself yearns for this kind of daily life, and if he can, he even wants to live this kind of ordinary life every day, but this is a fantasy after all.

When he was alone, he couldn't be calm, let alone choose Ellie's path.

For this reason, this ordinary life is precious, and after tomorrow, when it will be gone, what adventures await him in the royal capital?

Sunset.

After a dull day, Lin Bai and Ellie are invited by Bogu to come and eat this last seafood feast that only the City of the Lake can have, this kind of food is the only one in the world, and there is no other semicolon.

Sit in order.

Sitting in the first place is, of course, Bogu as the host, followed by Ellie, of course sitting next to Ellie is Lin Bai, and opposite Lin Bai is Bogu's son Bolin.

Ding Ding –

Gently ringing the bell, the servant heard the sound of fish intestines penetrating, and placed the exquisite delicacies on the table, and in less than three minutes, the whole table was already full of all kinds of delicacies.

Eighty percent of the seafood is seafood, and the remaining 20 percent.

It is still a seafood feast, and if you eat seafood in the City Lord's Mansion, then you must use the Pearl of the Heavenly Lake, which is known as the treasure of the town, to increase the deliciousness of the seafood, which can only be enjoyed in the City Lord's Mansion.

Lin Bai and Ellie had a look of surprise in their eyes.

People who have already eaten that delicacy once can't refuse that kind of delicacy that only exists in the sky, so both Lin Bai and Ellie are looking forward to the appearance of the Pearl of the Heavenly Lake, a bead the size of a fist as beautiful as the bright moon.

The lights go out.

When the lights in the hall went out, Bogu had already pressed the mechanism, and if it was according to the usual situation, then the Pearl of the Heavenly Lake would slowly rise from the center of the table in a beautiful posture, illuminating the entire hall.

But!

Obviously, the mechanism had been pressed for three minutes, but the entire hall was still pitch black, and the Pearl of the Heavenly Lake did not illuminate the entire banquet hall, which made Lin Bai and Ellie confused.

"Could it be that the mechanism is broken?"

Bogu's soft murmur reached everyone's ears, but in an instant, he muttered to himself: "This mechanism was made by the first craftsman of the Rain Country, and it can be used for thousands of years immortal according to reason, why is this happening." ”

Boleyn immediately understood, and he shouted, "Turn on the lights!"

As Boleyn's words fell, the servant quickly turned on the switch of the magic lamp, and orange lights shot out from the chandelier on the ceiling, illuminating every corner of the hall, and the whole hall was like day.

Let's do it—

The chopsticks, knives and forks in his hand fell in response, and Bogu stood up in a hurry, and said with an absolutely surprised smile: "How, how is it possible, what about the Pearl of the Heavenly Lake?

The crystal cabinet used to protect the Pearl of the Heavenly Lake was empty.

And there is no trace of destruction in the crystal cabinet, but the Pearl of the Heavenly Lake has disappeared, if this matter is not done by Bogu, then the Pearl of the Heavenly Lake is indeed stolen.

"Father, please cheer up!"

Bolin saw that Bo Gu was stunned in place, and hurriedly reminded: "Now is not the time to be in a daze, I lost the treasure of the town of Lake City, this is a capital crime of killing the head!"

"Yes, yes, yes, I, I know. ”

Taking a deep breath, Bo Gu looked at Ellie and said, "Your Highness Ellie, please forgive me, something like this happened, it seems that tonight's dinner will not be eaten, I will immediately start a thorough investigation and give an explanation to the entire Lake City!"

"Uncle Bogu, don't worry about me, if you need any help, please do your bidding, Bai and I will definitely do our best to help you. Ellie replied reasonably.

Bogu bowed slightly, and glanced around.

He slammed the table hard, and then said: "Lin'er, order the guards, first-level guard, and close all the exits of the City Lord's Mansion for me, from now on, the City Lord's Mansion is allowed to enter or leave!"

"Yes!"

Bo Lin obeyed the order and immediately rushed towards the door, although Bo Gu panicked for a while, but his thinking was extremely clear, after giving this order, it could effectively prevent the Pearl of the Heavenly Lake from being taken out of the City Lord's Mansion.

As Bolin left, Bogu turned to look at the butler.

A majestic voice came out of Bogu's mouth: "Butler, I think you probably know the seriousness of this matter, I can tell you very clearly, I can't find the thief's majesty to blame, my head is on the ground, and you will also bury me with you!"

"Yes, yes!" Wiping the cold sweat on his forehead, the butler hurriedly patted his chest and promised: "My subordinates will definitely do their best to search for the thief, and they will not let that damn thief take the Pearl of the Heavenly Lake away so easily." ”

"Now I'll give you a mission!"

Bogu's eyes flashed: "Now let me count who has been in and out of the City Lord's Mansion after yesterday's dinner, and who has not returned yet, I will let the entire city's troops assist you in finding out those people for me and interrogating them one by one!"

"Yes!

After the housekeeper assured him, he rushed out of the hall in a panic, the affairs of the entire City Lord's Mansion had to go through the housekeeper, who had been in and out of the City Lord's Mansion in the past two days, as long as the housekeeper checked it, it would be clear at a glance.

As for whether the steward will guard the theft, such a thing is impossible.

First of all, Bogu is not a person with no eyes, and secondly, the housekeeper and Bogu are completely grasshoppers tied to a rope, and the lord humiliates the ministers to death, as a housekeeper, he will never escape this responsibility.

Therefore, from the two most important things to the two most suitable people, Bolin and the butler, it can be easily seen that Bogu is extremely calm at this time, and the person who can become the city lord is not a mediocre talent.

However, these have nothing to do with Lin Bai.

Although it was already certain that Bogu was calm a little too quickly, he was already extremely hungry, ignoring the gazes of others, and feasted on the delicacies on the table.

"Sure enough, there is no Pearl of the Heavenly Lake, and the taste has dropped several notches. ”

Lin Bai stuffed something into his mouth while talking to himself, no matter from which point of view, this is a sign of rudeness to the extreme, after all, as the master, Bogu has just lost something, but you are eating here.

In the silent hall, only the sound of Lin Bai eating echoed.

Ellie looked at Lin Bai beside her and sighed helplessly, and then said apologetically to Bogu: "I'm sorry, Bai is probably too hungry, he didn't do this kind of thing on purpose at this time, I'm sorry." ”

"Hehe, Her Highness Ellie doesn't need to apologize. ”

Bo Gu squeezed out a smile and said: "Brother Lin, this is a true temperament, if you are hungry, you are naturally hungry, eating is a matter of course, if you don't dislike it, Your Highness Ellie, please also dine together." ”

After a pause, Bogu left his seat and said: "However, after this incident, His Majesty will not be able to dine with His Highness for the time being, and I ask His Highness for forgiveness, and Your Majesty is ready to start investigating this matter personally." ”

"Uncle Bogu doesn't have to be polite, but we're causing you trouble. ”

Ellie hurriedly waved her hand, signaling that Bogu didn't have to worry about them, at this time, of course, everything was based on the Pearl of the Heavenly Lake, and other things were not as important as this matter.

"Thank you, Your Highness Ellie, for your understanding. ”

Bo Gu bowed slightly and said: "Suddenly, there is another thing that I am afraid to forgive His Highness, and the plan to return to the capital tomorrow may be shelved, because it is difficult to ensure that the thieves will not be mixed in His Highness's escort without investigating the incident clearly, and the theft of the Pearl of Tianhu will be small, and the safety of His Highness is important." ”

There was silence for a long time.

Only then did Ellie smile reluctantly and said, "Uncle Bogu, I understand, then Bai and I can only talk for a few more days, and then return to the royal capital after this matter is clear." ”

"His Royal Highness Xie understands righteousness!"

Bogu bowed again, then straightened up and walked straight towards the door, walked to the position of the door, handed a token to one of the standing guards and said: "Pass my order, immediately close the entire Lake City, and no one is allowed to enter or leave, no matter who it is, no one is allowed to let it go unless His Majesty is there in person!"

"Yes, Lord of the Castle!"

With the token in hand, the guard trotted all the way to the end, and Bogu followed, walking in the direction of the butler's departure, and only the terrified servant and the heartless Lin Bai and the frowning Ellie were left in the entire hall.

"Homesick?"

Lin Bai grabbed Ellie's favorite shrimp on the side, placed it in front of her and said, "It's okay, although I don't like that old guy Bogu, but judging from the situation just now, this matter will soon come to light, and it is the first time I have seen a guy who can quickly calm down after losing such an important thing." ”

"Shiro, thank you. ”

Ellie's eyes were undisguised sadness, but she quickly smiled and said to Lin Bai: "As long as I have your company, no matter where I am, I will not be afraid, please don't worry about me." ”

"I see, I'm not going to leave you. ”

After hearing Lin Bai say this sentence again, Ellie ate with satisfaction, obviously very useful for Lin Bai's words, and with the entrance of the food, her mood also improved.

Although the taste was indeed more than a grade worse, Lin Bai and Ellie still ate with relish, and when the time slipped past 20:00, Ellie and Lin Bai returned to the room together.

The night talked about late at night, and Lin Bai returned to his room.

But as soon as he entered the room, Lin Bai suddenly found that the whole room exuded a beautiful white rhyme, as if the entire beautiful moon was invited into the room, this kind of white rhyme, Lin Bai was very familiar.

- There is a fist-sized pearl of the Heavenly Lake lying quietly on the bed!
