Chapter 135: Counting the Money

At first, Xu Nan hadn't understood the meaning of the word adult, and was secretly wondering where Evelyn's shy expression came from, but by the time he reacted, Evelyn had already passed the initial embarrassment.

She tugged back her hair, a relaxing gesture that made her look more natural:

"It's not too strange."

"After all, we, the spellcasters, have transcendent perceptions, and it is normal for us to perceive the call of some powerful existence in our dreams."

"My experience with this is that it's good to ignore him."

"Those scarlet blood in the dream, I will treat him as watermelon juice!"

At this point, she stuck out her tongue.

Xu Nan was speechless for a while.

I didn't expect Evelyn to have such a big heart.

But when you think about it, it makes sense.

After all, mages are different from warlocks, and it is almost impossible for every powerful mage to say that he has not been harassed by the whispers of powerful beings in the process of growing up.

The more powerful the spiritual and magical mages, the easier it is to come into contact with these evil and powerful beings, and the mage training system of the Arcane Empire has a special field to deal with the potential dark side of these universes.

Evelyn's handling of it can't be said to be completely wrong, but Xu Nan always feels that something has been missed.

However, since she herself is not uncommon to see this kind of thing, it is not good for Xu Nan to continue to point fingers as a scumbag.

He could only tactfully remind Evelyn not to be careless, and then said that if there was something he could do to help, he would have to talk to himself privately.

If you do this, you can be regarded as worthy of the netizen relationship between the two.

The two talked for a while, and Evelyn got up to take her leave—she asked for a rest, and at the same time told her about the evening banquet, and she had to be absent for the time being.

Xu Nan wanted to stay in the Potions Garden for a while, after all, he hadn't talked to the maid who was suspected of being Qin Lele, but since Evely was leaving, it was not convenient for him to stay for a long time.

Fortunately, when she was going down on the magic climbing vine, Evelyn suddenly remembered something, went to the second floor, and greeted the maid with some things.

And at this time, Xu Nan finally saw the maid's face clearly.

Unremarkable.

It is indeed incomparable with Qin Lele's appearance.

When the maid and Evelyn were talking, Xu Nan listened quietly, and after a conversation, the conjecture in Xu Nan's heart was basically confirmed correctly - not that his observation was keenly aware of the flaws exposed by the maid and the princess in the conversation, but that when he and Evelyn left the Enchanted Garden, Xu Nan had an extra note in his crotch.

Such a skillful technique can only be done by that flying thief.

After Evelyn left, Xu Nan sat alone in the reception room and found an opportunity to open the note.

[Elliot is investigating the small city of Song]

Behind the note, there is a time and place -

【Midnight, Kitchen】

This result surprised Xu Nan a little.

He originally thought that he had conceived ten thousand reasons to guess what purpose Qin Lele had approached Evelyn; But I never thought it had something to do with me.

"Elliot? Who was behind the Wildfire City incident? The conspirator who worked part-time as a bloodline ranger? ”

Xu Nan subconsciously touched the silly hair on his head.

Since when he entered the city before, the dull hair did not shine, it means that Elliot is not by his side, otherwise the super sensitive hair provided by John must have reacted.

"How did Qin Lele know? She's investigating Elliot? Or is she working with Elliot? ”

Xu Nan didn't doubt Qin Lele's motives, he was just curious about the ins and outs of the matter.

At times like these, though, speculation has become redundant.

He only needs to take a nap, have a big meal in the evening, and in the middle of the night, he believes that Qin Lele can uncover the mystery for her.

……

Time passed quickly.

The banquet in the Princess's Mansion was not so grand, which was also in line with Evelyn's usual style, but Xu Nan still had a good meal, and the food from the Caesar Empire had been inherited in the Ice Wind Territory.

Both sides of the banquet were amazed.

Xu Nan was surprised that the world had such an excellent food system; And Evelyn and the others were surprised by Xu Nan's appetite.

In the afternoon, it is said that the treasurer of Follett and Evelyn, who had engaged in a verbal negotiation, also changed the tension at the negotiating table, and the two sides had a friendly dinner together, preparing for a more enthusiastic negotiation battle after dinner.

The only regret is that Follett, as the administrator of the Gray Tower, can only drink ice water, otherwise with the level of gunpowder of both sides, I am afraid that they will fight directly at the dinner table; Of course, if there is such a scene, then it must be Follett who wins, after all, the semi-undead physique is too cheating.

In the dead of night, Xu Nan opened the stealth magic ball and slipped out of the room.

In order to prevent the failure of the appointment caused by the road idiot, he deliberately left the house more than an hour early - and it turned out that he was right, and after more than twenty circles around the castle, he finally found the castle kitchen after a quarter of an hour at midnight.

There, a familiar figure had been waiting for a long time.

Xu Nan threw a few simple spells to prevent the voice from leaking out, and then leaned up and said curiously:

"What are you doing here?"

Qin Lele grabbed a mask from his face, and came up to try to give Xu Nan a big bear hug, but unfortunately Xu Nan calmly avoided it.

Well, I've really improved. He commented inwardly.

"Xu Nan, you have changed!"

Qin Lele complained.

Xu Nan was leisurely and complacent: "Indeed, I have become faster!" ”

Qin Lele was speechless for a while.

After a while, she said sullenly: "Elliot you know, right?" It's the bad guy you mentioned earlier who almost destroyed Wildfire City. ”

Xu Nan nodded: "Why did you get involved with him?" ”

Qin Lele explained: "I didn't take the initiative to get involved with him. ”

"When I was doing a task, I found a very simple task, and I took it easily, but I just found out that there was a guy who grabbed the task with me, and that person was Elliot!"

"So I pretended to cooperate with him, and he also robbed me of another mission!"

Xu Nan frowned: "Mission? ”

Qin Lele stuck out his tongue: "By the way, I forgot to tell you, I joined a super powerful organization, that is a really powerful organization in the Shadow Realm, the name is the Ninth Manor!" ”

"The Ninth Manor!?"

Xu Nan was shocked.

Of course, he knew that this organization was said to represent the top killers in the Shadow Realm...... But how did a wanderer of Qin Lele's level get in?

But thinking about it carefully, with Qin Lele's aura of the protagonist all the way, Xu Nan was relieved.

After all, this is just a small drama in the "People around me are awesome" series.

Sure enough, in Qin Lele's concise explanation, Xu Nan quickly learned some secrets.

These days, Qin Lele has been practicing with his head down.

may have been stimulated by Senior Sister Jiang's strong strength, and Qin Lele, who returned to the main material realm, became extra diligent.

She was able to join the Ninth Manor, most of which was due to chance - the Viscount Flandy of the Shadow Realm, who was killed by Xu Nanyin before, used the recommendation letter of the Ninth Manor as a bait when she recruited Qin Lele.

Later, Viscount Flandy died, and Qin Lele actually found a letter of recommendation from his lair, and she didn't take it to heart at that time, but later, she moved her mind.

She used this letter of recommendation to infiltrate the Ninth Manor organization, and when she took the task, she found that a certain senior member of the Ninth Manor had issued a mission to investigate the "Little City Song"!

Qin Lele took over the task at that time.

After all, she is the one who knows the identity of Xiaocheng Song, and the reward for this task is not low. According to Qin Lele, as long as Xu Nan is sold, she will have everything!

It's a pity that Elliot's appearance hindered her path.

When Qin Lele won the task, Elliot had already gone to the Ice Wind Collar to investigate, according to the rules of the Ninth Manor, the task is divided into the first responsible person and the rest of the subordinate responsible persons, in layman's terms, it means that you have to queue up to hand over the task.

This shows the confidence that the Ninth Estate has in its own members, but it also creates a series of inefficiencies - usually, in order to solve this problem, the Ninth Manor's mission will give some punishment or time limit.

But investigating the matter of Xiaocheng Song, it is said that it is not urgent, so Elliot has plenty of time.

But Elliot is not in a hurry, Qin Lele is in a hurry.

“…… I'm annoyed when I talk about it! ”

"I could have sold you early, and counted the money happily......"

Qin Lele poured bitter water at Xu Nan, Xu Nan nodded at first, and then suddenly felt that something was not right.

"What are you talking about? Is there anyone like you? ”

Xu Nan scolded angrily: "You're not going to divide me?" ”

Qin Lele coughed and blinked: "I'm sorry, I should have sold you early, and then counted the money with you......"

"Anyway, you can count money!"

"But this guy stole my task, and he found this old lover of yours by the way, of course I can't leave ...... behind"

According to Qin Lele's plan, she was going to pretend to cooperate with Elliot, and then pit Elliot at a critical moment - this kind of thing is very common in the Ninth Manor, even if Elliot denounces her, others will only think that she is greedy for profit, and will not really suspect her.

As it stands, Elliot is planning a bold move for more clues about the small city of Song.

And the target of this operation is naturally Evelyn herself.

Qin Lele is naturally not far behind, she wants to mix a piece of the pie in this plan, and then take the opportunity to sell Evelyn first, then Eliot, and then Xu Nan, so as to achieve a bumper harvest in the true sense.

"Elliot wants to do something to Evelyn?"

Xu Nan narrowed his eyes: "What are his hole cards?" ”
