Ji Xun and Dong Qi are both temperamental, and there is no arrogant and twisted superfluous emotions.

After the joy, the two also returned to their old mode of getting along, each doing their own thing.

They didn't go out, they stayed quietly in their rooms.

One studies mechanical drawings, and the other stabilizes the transcendent realm after advancement.

Lion City is the territory of the Lionhearts, which is the territory of the enemy.

"1981 Titan Institute" was cleared before, and now there must be a large number of people outside who are crazy looking for people to clear the customs in all corners of the city.

But because of the thirty people who entered the other-dimensional space, only Ji Xun and two came out alive.

The other party couldn't find any useful clues.

As for the Hunters' Guild's side.

When they signed up, the two of them had already dealt with all the troubles, and it was not a big problem.

And there is also a dubious identity cover like Baron Charlie, and there is a high probability that they will not be able to find their heads.

The two stayed like this, another day and a night.

The next day, after lunch.

Ji Xun is still meditating and looking through the classics.

However, looking at it, his expression suddenly moved, as if he sensed some kind of summoning in the dark.

This feeling has come twice before.

It's familiar.

Ji Xun knew what was going to happen, so he looked at the exquisite bookmark.

Sure enough, after a moment of attention, the words left last time on the bookmark began to crumble.

Then a new line of text appeared: "Rising sun. Mr? Sorry, didn't help you last time. Later, I consulted with other teachers, and they still have no better way to deal with your mental aberration. I don't know if you're okay. Oh, fate will favor you."

Ji Xun saw this and smiled slightly.

If it weren't for the letter from this mysterious pen pal, he really couldn't have thought of a way to go undercover in the Silver Moon Sect.

This one helped him a lot.

The text that precedes it is generally a variety of apologies and concerns.

Ji Xun continued to watch.

The text on the letterhead continued to surface: "I'm sorry the letter may have bothered you. But I ran into another problem that bothered me a lot. I can't tell anyone about this question, so I can only write to you and tell you. Oh, forgive me for being a little confused. Here's the thing, after the coming-of-age ceremony, I won the first place in the family assessment. And then. And then there's a lot of that. People come to propose. You should understand this kind of trouble, right?"

When Ji Xun saw this, he had roughly guessed what to write later.

Judging from the words exchanged in the previous letter, this fisherwoman should have been born in a very wealthy family.

She won the first place in the assessment.

It's likely that this involves family inheritance or something.

In the case of the current system of aristocratic centralization in the Federation, marriage was inevitable.

Especially women.

Sure enough, the text reads: "Mother said that the elders of the family have decided that I will be engaged in two months. I'm going to marry a young master from a big aristocratic family. But. I haven't even met that person. My good friend inquired for me, and it was a man of many diseases. Bad apple. My mother loved me a lot, and she knew I didn't like it, but she also said that this was the duty of a female member of the family. Being able to marry a high-ranking nobleman is already my best life, I'm sorry, I don't know what to express. It's just that I feel very unhappy. Father, even my dearest grandfather. They also said that I should follow the arrangements of the clan, so that the family will be stronger. This confuses me. Perhaps, I should agree to such an arrangement, as everyone says, and then live for the rest of my life? But the more I think about the future, the more I feel very, very unhappy. I want to ask. Mr. Chaoyang, do you think so?"

That's the end of the notes on the letterhead.

Ji Xun read every word carefully.

I also felt a lingering melancholy and confusion between the lines.

That mysterious pen pal is very unhappy.

As if it was a clown's occupational disease, Ji Xun thought about it, decisively picked up the pen, and wrote back: "Oh no, Miss Yu, your previous guidance made me find some special methods. My mental aberration has been suppressed now. Thank you very much. As for your problem, I am not in your situation and cannot fully understand your troubles. But I can say a little bit about my shallow view of this kind of thing."

He continued: "In my opinion, 'love comes voluntarily, and there is no regret about it' is the best attitude towards feelings. It is also the attitude towards one's own life. Life is short and fragile, be brave to chase freedom and respect your heart's choices. From beginning to end, life blooms for itself and nothing else. This is the meaning of life as I understand it. If it were me, I would definitely choose the life I loved. I wish you a happy day in your life."

Ji Xun didn't bother about the benefits of family marriage to the family.

In his eyes, life and death are not the most important thing, let alone anything else.

Since the other party asked, he also said his true opinion.

Ji Xun didn't think much about it.

A young girl's emotional problems, he can only say a little about his own thoughts.

Nothing other than writing a few innocuous words doesn't help much.

Writing this, a thought suddenly flashed in his mind, since they have all written letters, then simply ask?

This kind of one-way letter opportunity is rare.

Last time, it was this one who helped him solve the problem of mental aberration.

Now we have a new problem.

"Miss Yu, I also have a new confusion to ask for. That is, I encountered some troubles when I advanced to the third-order card master. I practice the multi-elemental breathing method, and it will be very difficult to comprehend my 'curse seal', do you have any good advice?"

Although he had just entered the second order, Ji Xun also had to think about this issue in advance.

If you want to enter the third order, you must comprehend the "curse seal".

This is a test of the card master's understanding of the law, not just the attribute data.

Many card masters are stuck on this bottleneck all their lives.

Moreover, Ji Xun's learning is a multi-element breathing method, and theoretically this threshold will be many times higher than that of others.

He didn't think he would be able to get through.

At least for a long time to come, he felt that he could not find a clue at all.

Since I encountered it, I simply asked it once.

After all, judging from the information exchanged, the mysterious pen pal doesn't seem to be very good himself.

But the level of resources that the family behind her can access is very high.

Maybe there will be some special surprises like the previous spiritual secret method.

After Ji Xun finished writing the letter, he didn't take this kind of reply to heart when he didn't know what to wait for.

Stuck the letterhead in the book again.

He continued to meditate and look through the texts.

Coincidentally, looking at Ji Xun and thinking of something, he casually took out the [Silver Moon Mirror] and checked it as usual.

After all, he still has an identity as an undercover agent of the Silver Moon Sect, and he has to pay attention to the news sent by the leader from time to time.

There is no movement on weekdays.

But when I took it out today, there was a demonic whisper in the mirror.

Ji Xun raised his eyebrows, and skillfully picked it up and deciphered some information: "Tomorrow night's Lionheart Family Ball, answer."

"What does that mean?"

Ji Xun couldn't fully decipher those demon whispers.

But I also guessed from that fragmentary information that the Silver Moon Sect was going to do something.

"The people of Bureau X haven't done it yet?"

Ji Xun didn't know what the situation was, but he was also ready to take a look.

It just so happened that he also wanted to meet Xie Guozhong.

The life of the aristocracy has always been unpretentious and extravagant.

Every day except for the dance party, there is a dinner party for various reasons.

Ji is now using the disguise of Baron Charlie, and he has been receiving various invitations every day recently.

Before, he had to advance, and he was not interested in wasting time on useless interactions.

But now that he has received a secret order from the leader of the Silver Moon, he naturally wants to go there.

He was also curious about what those old believers were going to do.

The next day, at seven o'clock in the evening.

Ji Xun went out.

The Lion City is now beginning to take shape, and there are several two-way lanes running north and south in the walls.

The Lionheart family's home base is at the crossroads in the center of the city, in the building with the golden lion flag in front of the door.

Ji Xun changed into a handsome suit and rode to the front of the building.

He was already familiar with the process of a noble banquet.

Led by the servant, I took the elevator to the seventh floor.

This is the banquet hall, and when Ji Xun came, there were already many dressed gentlemen and ladies, as well as young and beautiful noble ladies.

The band plays a light tune, and the lighting is soft and ambiguous.

The familiar atmosphere of a ballroom dance party in high society.

Baron Charlie was already well-known in Innocence City, and when Ji Xun came, he met many acquaintances along the way.

After greeting him politely, he walked to the snack buffet and ate dessert with great interest.

Previously, he was keen on socializing in high society, and he wanted to break into the Silver Moon Sect.

Now that the goal has been achieved, it is better to keep a low profile.

After all, he just pit the Lionheart family in the 1981 space.

It has to be said that these aristocrats really enjoy life.

As far as food is concerned, this buffet is a delicacy that may not be seen in a civilian recipe for a lifetime.

I don't have to say anything about the taste.

Ji Xun ate and drank in the corner from time to time, and his eyes also looked around.

He also wanted to see if the Silver Moon Leader had come.

But before the leader of the silver moon, at this time, in the shadow of the pillar, a strong man quietly hid in.

Xie Guozhong's voice came from his ears: "You kid. Why did you get involved with the people of the revolutionary army again? ”

In the last battle of Honglou, the deputy leader of the revolutionary army, "Valkyrie" Qin, appeared.

As soon as this news came out, it shocked the entire federal leadership.

As the ace agent of Bureau X, he naturally had to investigate as soon as possible.

Although the city of innocence hides dragons and crouching tigers, the legendary powerhouse is not something that can be encountered casually.

Thinking about it again, when the governor Cao Yu was killed, there was a mysterious person who made a move, and it was not difficult for Xie Guozhong to guess that it was that one.

Later, after checking the various interpersonal relationships of the high-rise of Hong Lou, he was more sure.

The informant said that there was a guy close to Dong Qi, the eldest lady of Honglou, who had been haunting Honglou many times recently.

He knew it was this guy.

Ji Xun listened to the tone and said a little helplessly: "I have nothing to do with the revolutionary army. That's how I found out. ”

He didn't think that Xie Guozhong was here to trouble him.

I said it casually.

Sure enough, Xie Guozhong immediately believed it when he heard it, but just complained: "How do you feel that there will always be big trouble around you."

Ji Xun smiled and said nothing, and replied in his heart: Probably the reason for the 'bad luck gambler'?

He didn't respond, and said, "But, what's going on over there?" There is definite news tonight, there will be action within the Silver Moon Sect. ”

Xie Guozhong was also slightly surprised when he heard this, "There is a move tonight?" ”

Ji Xun said: "Yes." But I don't know what they're going to do. Just let me pick it up. I think. What could it be to steal? Or assassination? ”

He had thought about it before he came, since the leader of the Silver Moon asked him to respond, he definitely didn't fancy his combat power.

After all, this Lionheart family stronghold can't come hard.

If you don't fight, there is a high probability that you want to cover something with his identity as "Baron Charlie".

"Hmm."

Xie Guozhong nodded when he listened, and pondered for a moment before he said, "After the fall of Honglou, the situation in Innocence City has become more and more complicated recently. Not only the Silver Moon Sect, but also some other remnants of the Old God Sect have also emerged. Oh, that. Is there any news for your friend of the remnants of Oran? ”

As soon as Ji Xun heard it, he knew that he was talking about the ninth day of the first month, and asked rhetorically, "No." What's wrong? ”

Xie Guozhong said: "There is news that those remnants of the old era have been active recently, and it is said that there are some internal situations in them. The new king ascended the throne, as if he was planning some very dangerous big move. ”

The new king?

The nominal brother of the ninth year of the first month?

Ji Xun listened to Nanjing before, and knew that the king of the remnants of Orlan had been critically ill for a long time, and it was normal for him to die now.

But he didn't have any worries when he listened.

This level of turmoil is to worry about the top of the Federation, and it has nothing to do with him as a little bumper.

On the contrary, he thinks it is better to be lively.

At this time, Xie Guozhong thought of something, and reminded: "Also, the Cao family's own family has recently personally sent someone to investigate the assassination of the two innocent city lords. It is said that there is a very powerful detective from Dragon City, so be more careful yourself. ”

"Hmm."

Ji Xun heard that it had something to do with him, and then he had a sense of crisis.

A dinner party is just an ordinary aristocratic dinner.

The Lionheart family entertained these "heroes" who actively built the new city.

At the same time, it is also a resource exchange party for the upper class.

The whole process is eating, drinking, dancing, and talking about business.

Baron Charles didn't have any resources or anything to communicate with, so Ji Xun pretended to wander around the crowd for a while, and then sat and drank in the rest area.

His gaze scanned everyone in the room, too.

He still had to wait for the Silver Moon Leader's orders.

However, before waiting for the command, an acquaintance came to the rest area.

Caterina, who was dressed in a burgundy evening dress, entered the banquet hall and saw Ji Xun at a glance.

She had now lost interest in those interactions, and thinking about it, she walked to the rest area.

Looking at Ji Xun, Caterina took the initiative to greet her: "Yo, Baron Charlie, long time no see." ”

Ji Xun also got up very gentlemanly and made a chest protection salute, "Beautiful Miss Carter, long time no see." ”

After Caterina knew that the guy in front of her was from Game X, her attitude was not so wary.

She folded her skirt, sat elegantly on the sofa, and asked casually, "Got a task?" ”

Ji Xun smiled noncommittally: "If. . I mean, I'm here to see Miss Carter? ”

"Oh?"

Naturally, Caterina didn't take it seriously.

There was a look on her pretty face that seemed to be a smile instead of a smile, and she said, "Your cousin 'Sophia' is gone." I thought you'd disappear too. ”

“.”

Ji Xun was not surprised to hear this.

Xie Guozhong has already said this situation before.

Once Sophia is exposed, then his identity as Baron Charlie will also be exposed.

But I had only received a message from the leader of Silvermoon before, that is, she did not use the identity of "Sophia" to make trouble, but had a better plan.

Now Ji Xun only thought of one possibility, that is, the one who used her "Moon of a Thousand Faces" ability to transform into anyone present.

The thought flashed in his mind, but Ji Xun's expression remained the same, but he changed the topic: "How is Miss Carter's marriage contract?" ”

Hearing this, Caterina's crystal eyes flashed with a different color, and after a moment of silence, she said lightly: "It's not good." ”

Ji Xun just asked casually, and he didn't want to dig into it when he listened.

However, when this topic was mentioned, Caterina seemed to think of something, and suddenly said, "Can I ask you a very presumptuous question?" ”

Ji Xun said: "Miss Carter is too polite. It's a contemptible honor for you to be willing to share. ”

Caterina said lightly: "I don't really want to get married now." Any good suggestions? ”

She couldn't say that to anyone around her.

I don't know why, when she saw this guy, she remembered the last time she went to the roof of the Rose Manor.

I didn't think much about it at all, so I casually brought up the topic.

Ji Xun chuckled when he heard this: "Because you don't like political marriages? ”

When he heard this, he couldn't help but think of the mysterious pen pal who had written the letter only yesterday.

Do these noble ladies have these troubles?

Caterina said, "Almost." I didn't expect anything from that kind of marriage contract. ”

Fate fluctuates.

The previous [Destiny Gold] divination suggested that her choice was right.

But now, it's not so certain.

Fate seems to have changed, and the gold coins often point to unknown.

She was rarely lost.

Ji Xun didn't want to talk more on this topic, and responded to his own opinion again: "Love is voluntary, and there is no regret about it." ”

"Huh?"

In a simple word, Caterina doesn't think so.

But after pondering for a moment, a thoughtful look gradually appeared in the crystal eyes.

And the more I think about it, the more I feel that this statement seems to completely answer my doubts.

Isn't your confusion just afraid of regret?

Sure enough, I asked the right person.

She glanced at Ji Xun, with a hint of surprise hidden in her eyes, and chuckled: "Thank you Baron Charlie for your doubts." ”

"Where."

Ji Xun just dealt with a few words casually.

He just responded with a smile, but suddenly, a familiar female voice came from his ear: "In two minutes, someone will hide something in the flower bed of the third wall pillar in the southeast, you must take it out." ”

Silver Moon Boss!

Sure enough, they came to steal something?

When Ji Xun heard this spiritual thought, he immediately knew who it was.

Nor did he make any attempt to search for the source of the interrogation.

But at the moment when her eyes froze, Caterina seemed to have discovered something, "What's wrong?" ”

Ji Xun stood up, bowed down and stretched out his hand and said, "I'm wondering, is it an honor to invite Miss Carter to dance again?" ”

Caterina glanced at him and readily agreed, "Okay." ”

Before I knew it, it seemed like I was dancing with this guy for the third time.

There seems to be no reason to refuse.

Ji Xun took the opportunity to take the slender hand into his palm, but in his heart, he had already calculated the time distance in an instant.

Two minutes, the distance of the flower bed is fifty-two meters.

Ji Xun didn't show anything abnormal throughout the whole process, but kept counting down in his heart.

Two minutes is not a long time, and a dance only takes a few beats.

The two have danced a few times and are not strangers.

Ji Xun was jumping, and Yu Guang observed the entire banquet hall, and by the way, he took the young lady to the predetermined direction.

Almost punctually, he watched a security guard in a suit walk into the room.

The path that the guy took was good and he passed the third pillar of the wall in the southeast!

He didn't stop, but walked straight towards the window.

Ji Xun paid attention to the surroundings intently, and he also noticed that after this guy came in, there was a dense sound of footsteps outside.

"Besieged?"

Ji Xun had already guessed it in his heart.

This guy seems to have stolen something, and he was immediately discovered. Knowing that he couldn't escape, he left his things in the banquet hall and let himself go out.

There's nothing wrong with this plan.

Before he could think about it, a group of men in black suits rushed in.

Caterina also noticed the anomaly, and her expression was slightly different.

The guy before didn't dare to stop at all, and before everyone could react, he slammed into the glass.

"Bang dang!"

The window glass of the banquet hall was shattered, and the guy jumped off the building.

And almost at the same time, more than a dozen guards of the Lionheart family also rushed out.

This movement was not small, and the banquet hall was panicked for a moment.

When Ji Xun saw this, he took advantage of the moment when everyone's eyes were attracted to the past, and the place where he happened to be dancing was on the edge of the flower platform, so he quietly picked up the thing and stuffed it into the cuffs.

Something that can't fit in a storage ring, good thing.

Everyone was stunned by the scene in front of them.

No one knows what's going on.

Jane, a middle-aged man who looked like a steward, explained that it was a reassuring word to "catch the thief", but it did not cause any panic.

Caterina seemed to have guessed something, and her eyebrows raised slightly, but she didn't care.

After all, it is a dance partner, Ji Xun got something, and his other hand is still holding him.

However, he also discovered that it seemed that something very important had been lost, and the people of the Lionheart family had surrounded the entire banquet hall.

Ji Xun also frowned, and muttered in his heart: "It's troublesome."

Even with the identity of Baron Charlie to cover up, if the things lost by the Lionhearts family were too important, he didn't feel that he could walk out safely with them.

However, just as his mind was thinking about how to take advantage of the chaos to leave.

Miss Katarina's astonishing instincts surprised Ji Xun again.

As if she had guessed something, she asked directly, "You invited me to dance just now because of that thief?" ”

When Ji Xun heard this, the feeling of a slight numbness in his scalp immediately hit his heart.

He knew that some of his actions had been discovered.

The strange thing is that it stands to reason that the eldest lady of the Lionheart family found out that the situation couldn't be worse.

But at this moment, he was not flustered at all.

On the contrary, there is a sense of excitement wandering on the edge of a knife.

Some restless thoughts in my heart immediately could not be suppressed.

Ji Xun didn't quibble, the corners of his mouth gradually raised, and he asked rhetorically, "How did you find out?" ”

Caterina gestured to one of the hands that the two were still holding and said calmly, "You are too calm. In that situation just now, normal people would at least be a little surprised. But your heart rate hasn't changed at all. So, I guess, you should know something in advance. ”

After a pause, she added, "And I noticed that guy when he came in just now." The path he walked coincided with the path we danced on. The timing was too coincidental. ”

Ji Xun listened and praised sincerely: "Miss Carter is worthy of being the 'Silver Mist Rose', and she really deserves her name. ”

Who would have nothing to do to remember the walking path of one of the hundreds of people in the banquet hall.

But the woman noticed.

This observation, this keen intuition, is really worthy of the first talented woman in Silver Mist City.

was recognized, Ji Xun was not only panicked, but had a sense of anticipation that he wanted to play a game when he met his opponent.

Win or lose.

It's hard to find a bosom friend.

Ji Xun looked at the pretty and calm face in front of him, and the smile on his face became more and more exaggerated and dangerous.

Caterina raised her eyebrows slightly, and asked very calmly, "So, are you going to do it to me?" If you kidnap me, you'll have a chance to get out alive. ”

Ji Xun chuckled and shook his head when he listened.

He didn't get angry, but leaned over and kissed the back of Carter's hand very gentlemanly, praising her charm: "Such a beautiful young lady, how could I be willing to hurt you." ”

This appreciation is not only about her appearance, but also about her intelligence.

And that's exactly what he thought.

And the truth is exactly the opposite of what Carter said.

If he doesn't kidnap him, he still has a chance to escape.

If you really want to hijack, you will definitely die!

"Oh?"

Caterina listened to this, and her intuition made her experience that heartfelt admiration.

She thought of something and smiled slightly, "Let's go." I'll send you out. ”

Ji Xun grinned: "Thank you." ”

Caterina looked at him like this, and her heart became more and more high, and she asked, "Why don't you ask why I help you?" ”

In this situation, even if he has the identity of Bureau X, it is absolutely impossible for him to be good if he is caught.

But this is the situation where this guy is so calm?

Ji Xun rolled his eyes and said casually: "Problems within your Lionheart family. I'm not an outsider either. ”

Caterina chuckled as she listened, "You're smart. ”

Ji Xun smiled and said nothing.

The relationship between the two is nodding friends, and they are not familiar enough to let her sell her family interests to help an outsider.

The only possibility for this willing to help is the struggle of interests within the family.

The battle for the inheritance of the Anka family's eldest and second rooms has always been bloody, and he has heard of it for a long time.

This Silver Mist Rose is not as weak as it seems.

Two smart people don't have to say too much at all.

Caterina didn't want to say more on this topic, but suddenly thought of something, and said with a little dissatisfaction: "Also, if there is a next time, can you not invite me to dance for other purposes?" You're rude. ”

This time, I danced three times, and every time.

I seem to be a tool man.

Ji Xun grinned and responded, "Okay." ”

This woman has changed too much from when she went to Honglou to gamble.

The two chatted and walked out.

With this eldest lady escorting, no one in the Lionheart family dared to stop them.

Ji Xun also took the things out smoothly.

Thanks to the "130910212158317", "One Hundred Ways to Discover Men Lying", "Liyu Chenxiang", and "Emperor Seal Holy Spirit" for their tips.
