39. Follow the mission to Delhi

"We?" Gu Yuexi secretly wondered if she would ask me to help him again.

But she didn't care at all, because the last time she went to the orphanage to volunteer for a day, she not only did not feel tired, but felt very fulfilled and fulfilled.

So she smiled and replied to him: Okay, is it possible that you are going to the orphanage again?

But what she didn't expect was that he actually replied to her such a message: The matter of the Snow Mountain Scroll, the details will be discussed in the evening.

"No wonder." She nodded slightly, then hurriedly changed into light clothes, planning to go out and relax, after all, in the next few days, maybe she will have to go to some less safe places again.

Listening to the slightly unrestrained tunes of the wandering singers on the street corners, looking at the pedestrians rubbing shoulders in the night market, eating simple and delicious curry rice, and thinking about the upcoming dangers and challenges, half an hour passed in a flash.

She rubbed her numb ears, yawned long, and prepared to get up and head back to the hotel.

But at this moment, she was on the corner of the street, and suddenly saw a little girl who was slightly familiar.

At first glance, the little girl was about six or seven years old, with a dark and red face, clear eyes like a fawn, and a patched white short-sleeved shirt and a pair of denim trousers covered with dirt; On second thought, isn't this the little girl I met hunting near Sadia Village?

After a moment's hesitation, she stood up curiously and walked briskly towards the little girl.

But the little girl didn't react, as if she was taking her for air.

Gu Yuexi smiled faintly, handed her a bottle of pure water, and asked in a calm tone: "Little sister, what are you doing when you come to Dhaka?" ”

The little girl took the water bottle, bowed slightly to her to show her gratitude, and then drank half of the bottle of water in one gulp, and whispered to her, "Sister borrowed a step to speak." ”

"Oh?" She looked at the dim alley not far away, and was inexplicably worried, but after a short hesitation, she still agreed to the little girl's request.

Sure enough, the little girl led her to the deepest part of the alley, during which she was surrounded by drunks who were babbling nonsense, prostitutes who were scratching their heads, and sneaky thieves, all of which made her feel a little remorseful, and she really shouldn't have easily agreed to the little girl's request.

Eventually, the little girl stopped in front of a dilapidated log cabin and whispered, "Wolf King, I have brought the man." ”

"Yes, Amir, you can go and rest for the time being." After a while, the voice of an extremely crisp girl sounded in the room.

"Could it be that you are Bai Ling?" Gu Yuexi stood firm, and suddenly remembered a scene that happened on the night of March 26.

"Exactly, Miss Gu come in and sit." As the wooden door slowly opened, a wolf-headed human presence appeared in front of her eyes, her face was much haggard compared to the last time, and the hair that should have been soft became rough.

Gu Yuexi then stepped into the door and found that this was a small room temporarily built by nearby residents to store sundries, not a certain residence of Bai Ling as she had imagined before.

"You're pretty good at finding a place, so hidden." She looked around, not aware of any danger for a moment, so she joked.

"No way, enemies are everywhere, and I don't want to lose my life because of a small mistake." Bai Ling's face was calm, as if he had bumped into a plague god.

"Tell me, what are you looking for me?" Gu Yuexi looked at her pitiful appearance and didn't intend to waste this precious time, so she went straight to the point.

"Snow Mountain Scroll, do you have the latest clues?" She hesitated for a moment and asked with a serious expression.

"Of course, I know that one of the fragments is in the city of Patna in the Kingdom of Delhi, but I don't know the exact location." Gu Yuexi raised her eyes and said to herself.

"Very well, you just have to wait patiently on the dock north of the city to get it." A glimmer of hope flashed in Bai Ling's eyes, and he hurriedly said.

"So easy?" She coldly thought of the allusion of waiting for the rabbit, and looked at her in bewilderment.

"Miss Gu doesn't have to be worried, even if there is danger at that time, someone will try their best to rescue you." Bai Ling stood up, patted her on the shoulder, and walked out of the room.

Gu Yuexi couldn't help but shake her head, she wanted to take this opportunity to ask her about the origin of the Snow Mountain Scroll, but in a hurry, seeing her eager appearance, she finally didn't speak.

By the time she returned to the Vila Carlos Hotel, it was half past seven in the evening.

"Well, I don't know how long he's waited." She glanced at the hotel's wall clock, and her steps sped up a little.

When she came to the corridor on the sixth floor of the hotel, she saw a nervous person from a distance, only to see him pacing back and forth while wiping the beads of sweat on his forehead, thinking that it must be Wang Wenyuan.

"Wenyuan, I'm sorry, I've been waiting for a long time." She waved her hand apologetically, and greeted him with some embarrassment.

"Miss Gu, you can be regarded as back." When he saw her finally appear in his sight, he couldn't help but let go, the heart that had been hanging for a long time.

Then, a complicated look appeared on his face, but he didn't speak, I don't know if it was because he was too nervous, or if his brain was suddenly stuck.

"Don't worry, rest for a while, and then talk." She hurriedly took out the key and opened the door.

With a large glass of pure water in his stomach, Wang Wenyuan's tired expression was relieved, and he thought for a while before he said slowly: "Lord Principal told me today that I will go with you to Patna City in the Delhi Kingdom tomorrow to find the fragments of the Snow Mountain Scroll on the map." ”

"Your boss knows pretty quickly." Gu Yuexi nodded, and said in her heart that maybe Wang Wenyuan had revealed it to him this morning, so she asked him with a little doubt: "The Kingdom of Delhi does not exempt the Sultanate of Bangladesh from visas, and it will take at least a week to apply for an urgent visa, and unless we use special means, we will not be able to enter the country at all." ”

"This ......," he seemed to be asked, but he quickly regained his composure, and said disapprehantly, "The Lord has not mentioned the visa issue to me, but he has told me more than once that we should follow the mission of Vejaida, the Minister of the Privy Council, and I wonder if this is a special measure you said." ”

"Really?" Gu Yuexi immediately showed an expression of disbelief, first of all, Vejayada is the youngest of the 25 ministers in the Privy Council, why did Ismail Sultan, who has always been known for his conservatism, appoint him as a plenipotentiary envoy for the first time? Second, since the principal Li Boling only learned the location of the fragment of the Snow Mountain Scroll this morning, wouldn't the method he mentioned to Wang Wenyuan be a hasty move without much thought? That being the case, whether Vejayada will accept them or not is debatable.

Seeing her sad appearance, he couldn't help but smile and said, "Let's give it a try, what if it happens?" ”

"Ugh." Gu Yuexi couldn't help sighing, knowing that there was no better way at present, so she could only be a dead horse and a live horse doctor.

"Girl, you haven't eaten yet." Wang Wenyuan saw that she was in a bad mood, so he quickly changed the topic and asked.

"I've eaten it." Gu Yuexi subconsciously waved his hand, not seeing his true intentions at all, and then while thinking about it, he said, "Wen Yuan, do you think that the attitude of the Sultan of Ismail towards the King of Delhi has changed a little quickly. ”

"It's a little, I think it's probably because the Sultan thinks that hugging the thighs of the Delhi Kingdom will give him the strength to compete with Zhe Mengxiong in the northeast of South Asia, and can also avoid the huge burden of the Quad Alliance on Bengal, and can also establish a patriotic image for his subjects, isn't it killing three birds with one stone?" Wang Wenyuan saw that she insisted on drilling the horns of the bull, and knew that he couldn't resist her, so he couldn't help but discuss the international relations of South Asia with her with tears and laughter.

"Okay, let's not talk about that, I suddenly want to eat the fruit salad you made." Gu Yuexi stretched her sore waist and said in a low voice with a pleading tone.

"Okay, no problem." Wang Wenyuan immediately responded, and said with a smile; "The girl's things here are really rich, eat two or three things a day, and don't repeat them for a month."

Hearing him say this, Gu Yuexi couldn't help laughing, and said in her heart: This is very good, then this kitchen will be contracted to you in the future.

After a while, five or six kinds of fruits were cut into small pieces of different shapes by Wang Wenyuan, and after that, he arranged them evenly and poured honey and yogurt on them, which looked beautiful and delicious.

"Good work." Gu Yuexi looked at his busy figure, and then looked at the colorful "Tetris" on the plate, and couldn't help whispering.

"Miss Gu, please use it slowly." He didn't seem to hear what she had just said, or if he did, he didn't think how to reply.

Licking the sweet honey and fruit at the corner of her mouth, Gu Yuexi stood up "satisfied", and proposed to Wang Wenyuan to keep it on the grounds that it was too late.

He didn't object, but said calmly, "Thank you so much." ”

"Rest early, don't you have important things to do tomorrow." Gu Yuexi felt that what he said just now was a little outrageous, but she also felt that under the current situation, he and her should not get too close.

"Man, what a combination full of contradictions." She muttered as she stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of her bedroom, staring at the vast river in the distance.

As for him, he leaned against the bay window of the other bedroom, sometimes looking at the endless night sky, sometimes fiddling with the Rubik's Cube in his hand, as if he had something hidden in his heart.

******

In the wee hours of the morning, a torrential downpour of rain suddenly came, the heaviest rain of the year in Dhaka, the capital of Bangladesh, and marked the beginning of the rainy season in northeastern South Asia.

Listening to the dull thunder and the unpaused sound of rain outside the window, Ismail Sultan looked at the empty apartment in a daze, and at the moment his heart was mixed. Mahmoud was struck by King Delhi Bahrom with a sword and fell to his death, and in 1999 he and his wife were attacked by the Blackshirts Prince Regiment in Sylhet.

Now, he wants to make peace with Zhemengxiong and extend an olive branch to the kingdom of Delhi, what a great irony.

Turning off the lights, he tossed and turned, but finally couldn't swallow his breath, so he called Vejaida, the envoy plenipotentiary.
