72. The whole city is frenetic
"This city is moving-tsk, seeing this scene with my own eyes, I always feel inexplicably young and energetic, this is like a vibrant city~ In the past, this city was too dull. ”
Speaker Skasa's face was pleased, but it didn't last long before it was interrupted by a voice coming from the teleportation crystal.
"It's obvious that it's the people who are tossing, and you don't have any ideas, teacher, this is the credit of Aisha's predecessors, right?"
"Salith, don't be so hostile to me......"
"Teacher, what you have done, I have always seen in my eyes - the words 'being a teacher' must be insulated from you, there is no doubt about it. ”
"Salith, you're really getting less and less cute, since you became a girl, you have a lot more eyes, and sure enough, gender directly affects your personality? If you fall in love with a man one day in the future, I will be very sad on the day of marriage......"
On the other side, Shalith was very helpless to stroke the hair of Yan Yu, who was pillowed on her lap, and then, with a blank face, she said unceremoniously to Speaker Skasa: "I don't know if I will like men, but what I do know is that if you continue to talk about this kind of topic, even if you use Yan Yu as a shield next time, I won't pay attention to you anymore." ”
If Yan Yu hadn't returned to her side "on vacation" and said a lot of good things, Sharisy wouldn't want to deal with this old cultivator in advance - in fact, if you think about it, you can understand that it must be her teacher who used the "kindness" of letting Yan Yu go home early to make Yan Yu a lobbyist, right?
It's very happy to see Yan Yu. Sharisy was not going to pursue Speaker Skassar's misdeeds of using children...... Well, it's definitely not because she's happy to see Yan Yu herself!
"Sha-Li-Si~Teacher, I know I'm wrong~"
"Don't shout so sensually, and Yan Yu is sleeping next to me...... If there's anything, just say it quickly. ”
"Okay, okay, anyway, everything Yan Yu is first, right? You sister controls ......" was only halfway through the sentence. Seeing that Sharisy was in a tendency to hang up, Skarsa hurriedly changed her words, "That's the case! The last time you sent a report, you mentioned those magic arrays near Nazca City, right? ”
After a few seconds of silence on Salith's side, there was a weak voice from Salith.
“...... Is that so?"
"Hey, hey, this is the imperial capital, aren't you worried?"
"I said don't make a lot of noise, Yan Yu is next to you. As for why he didn't worry at all - he didn't say anything else in the imperial capital now. With Aisha's seniors and teachers, the two big bosses, what else can go wrong, I think there will be no safe place in this world. ”
Of course. Sharisy didn't know that at this moment in the imperial capital, there were at least two ruthless characters whose abilities were not inferior to Skassar's - but these two alone were indeed enough.
"You kid. It's really inconsiderate for an old man of my age. In short, the situation here is not bad, but it is still a bit troublesome, and most importantly, Aisha and I both have the idea of casting a long line to catch big fish, so we need to put more thought. Such a dangerous group of people, if possible. I think it's better to catch them all. Do you have details of the last incident, Sarise?"
“...... That's right. No problem, I'll pass them on to you, teacher. ”
"I remember you mentioned last time that there was a dark mage who was originally a member of that organization, but later left the organization and joined the association?
"I'm sorry, my relationship with her is average, and I still have some bumps in the past, if I come forward, I guess this thing must be blown. ”
"Well, in that case, you can't force it, so be it...... By the way, Yan Yu is next to you now?"
Not knowing what she was talking about, Saris felt her teacher's tone become a little strange...... Or rather, it's getting a little obscene? It made her a little bit uncomfortable. Since she became a mother, she has become much more sensitive to this kind of problem than in the past.
"yes, sleep with your head on my lap......"
"Oh oh oh! It's actually the legendary welfare knee pillow! Damn, as a teacher, why didn't I be able to get close to the water and get the moon first!" "Skasa seemed to be stimulated, and in his mind, he unconsciously sketched out the slender legs of Saris, "I'm too envious—"
Click.
Sharisy cut off the signal and ignored Speaker Skasa. It's not that she is disgusted with her teacher's words that are close to sexual harassment, it's just that Yan Yu is still sleeping, and Skasa is so noisy, maybe he will wake Yan Yu up.
From this point of view, Sharisy has gone farther and farther on the road of sister control.
"Why is that kind of situation happening in the imperial capital? aren't these madmen afraid?"
"Because they're crazy, that's not wrong at all. ”
Shalith looked at the door with some displeasure: "Could you please knock on the door when you enter?" This is not my home, office, there are some basic rules that you should not ignore." ”
For Xia, she still doesn't deal with it as always. However, even so, she reluctantly let Xia live in her somewhat large and empty house temporarily - according to Shalith herself, she can't feel at ease if someone as dangerous as Xia is not under her nose.
"Huh? Didn't someone just say that they had a bad relationship with me, and that they still had old grudges? Did I hear a hallucination? Or was it just a lie?"
"Uh!" Saris couldn't help choking, she really couldn't refute Xia's statement. Can't follow her words and admit that she is telling a lie, and she is covering up for her in front of her teacher, right?
Speaking of which, what is it to shelter this annoying woman? Although this woman is indeed very beautiful, as long as she is not a man. When I see her, I want to take her for myself, but I don't seem to have that desire, right? In other words, it shouldn't be out of a man's affection for women......
"Can you think ...... Is it that Salis-chan cares about me? Thinking about it like this, Xia I, I suddenly feel so happy and blessed ♀!"
"Don't just bring strange delusions...... Okay, I'll admit that I really don't want you to have anything to do with the teacher and him in the imperial capital!" If you have any ambiguous colors, please spare me. ”
Salith said, gesturing at Yan Yu, who was sleeping soundly on her lap. After Xia saw Yan Yu. I could only smile and nod.
How difficult this little ancestor is, Xia also has a deep understanding. Even if it is her, she does not think that it will be a beautiful thing to have a little guy who is full of hostility to herself every day. Obviously, Saras, who was choked enough by herself at that time, can get along with herself quite well. But Yan Yu still kept staring at her.
"I've already been humble. Why Yan Yu still refuses to forgive me? Even if I don't do any anesthetic measures, it is very painful to directly remove my four ribs......
"I think that's the problem!"
Where is there such a way to apologize? There are so many ways to apologize, do we have to use this method of "an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth"? After so long, when Shalith has grasped the ideological work, Yan Yu still has such a bad attitude towards Xia, it can only be said that the "Dao Lu apologize" scared Yan Yu, who was still a child, right?
Whoever it is, after seeing a person grinning 2 and pulling out the ribs in front of him. Not to mention, Yan Yu is still a child. That time, I was so scared that I didn't relax for a long time.
"Don't talk about that...... Since you were listening outside, Natsu, do you have any thoughts on what the teacher said?"
"There's really nothing to say. Xia folded his arms in some embarrassment, frowned and thought for a while, and said to Saris, "Because in my impression, most of the people in this organization are in a very strange state of mind. Usually it's okay, but when it comes to matters related to the interests of the organization, they all become a little fanatical, as for the issue of loyalty. It's a bit of an exaggeration. But you know a little bit about it, many of these people are desperate but extremely evil people, but they are not dogs raised since childhood, so obedient, no matter how you look at it, there is a problem, right?"
"It's really strange for you to say that. "Those people are definitely not honest and peaceful guys, one by one they are very capable of doing things, just such a group of outlaws get together, not only do not cause conflicts and disputes, but also strictly carry out the orders from above, even if it is a raised Wangcai Jun, it will not be more loyal than this, right?
With Salith's knowledge and experience, I can only think that the other party has any means to control and affect the mind, right?
So what is the summer for nothing?
"Me?" Xia scratched her head innocently after being asked by Salith, "Probably because my spirit is spent communicating with Carlo most of the time, and even if something wants to get involved, there is no way to do it." Let's just say that because of Carlo's presence, my spirit and mind, even when I'm alone, it's hard to relax and settle down. I'm always active, so it's hard for me to get those influences. ”
"Don't you know what the situation is?"
"I must have noticed something unusual, but you know, I wouldn't have been able to do anything in that situation. My strength is not enough to break through the skill of Aisha's predecessors, so more is better than less. ”
Shalith didn't say anything anymore - although Xia said it lightly, she could fully imagine how bad and oppressive the environment Xia was in at that time. Even if it's a so-called "fence", it's a terrible thing if the shelter itself is a bottomless pit.
"But I know one thing. ”
Xia suddenly changed his words, stepped forward, and stretched out his finger to a certain location on the map on Sally's desk: "I have noticed that in the imperial capital, including the area around it, few people in the organization move over there—I think, it should be afraid of the speaker?" The traces of those limited actions are particularly obvious. ”
"What do you want to say?"
"I've had the pleasure of traveling on a mission once and to the destination. It is the imperial capital. ”
===============
"See? That guy ...... Yes, the waiter who seems to be serious and responsible. Io pointed to a waiter in a tea restaurant in the distance. Following Io's point, Gatis and Aroma looked together, but they didn't see anything unusual.
The waiter had a delicate face, a generous demeanor, and a humble and polite attitude. The service seems to be very thoughtful, and there is nothing out of the ordinary, is it not right to say that the waiter is too good?
"This. Isn't there something wrong? I don't think there's anything wrong with it......"
Not only Aroma, but even Delgatis, who had long been accustomed to court struggles, didn't notice anything unusual—both of them even wondered in their hearts if it was the so-called "spies" that Io had reported during the day. They're all poor innocents, right? It all feels like Io is just a one-sided thorn.
"Hehe, sometimes, you can't just look at the present, but combine the performance of the other party for a period of time, and look at it together. ”
"So don't sell it, let's talk about what it's for?"
"Did you see that, after the customer left, the waiter's behavior suddenly changed?"
It was indeed as Io had said, after the previous guests had left. The waiter suddenly looked like a deflated ball, and most of his previous enthusiasm was gone. The whole person fell into a state of laziness and decadence. It doesn't matter if there are no customers in the store who are so lazy, but the business in the store is not bad now, and there are still many customers.
In this way, there are indeed some problems.
"I have carefully investigated, and this fellow only becomes particularly enthusiastic when certain guests arrive, and those guests, like the one just now, are noble ladies of great status. ”
"Eh, that is, this guy is actually trying to brush up on the favorability of those noble ladies? But that only shows that this guy wants to be a little white face, right? How did you connect him to the spy?"
"It is an individual who has to live, and the living habits of ordinary people are inseparable from his own mental outlook and other factors. If he is a guy who wants to be favored and prosperous for a while, then his daily behavior and habits will definitely reveal some villain characteristics. However, I observed for a while that the waiter's habits were not peculiar to those speculators. This person is meticulous and strict with himself, and he doesn't even care much about some small money, and he definitely doesn't look like a person who is forced to make a living and wants to be favored. ”
"Can you trust a person who can restrain his desires to do whatever it takes to be the head of the family?"
Io's words silenced Gatis and Aroma.
"That's right, it seems that I was still too naïve in the past. ”
It was Gatiss, and Io's words touched her greatly—as a self-proclaimed conspirator, she suddenly discovered today that she had no grasp of the human mind and psychology at all. She may be able to deal with all kinds of conspiracies and conspirators with ease, but she is completely ignorant of some of the market psychology of ordinary people.
Because she has barely been exposed to this aspect of things.
"Excluding that possibility, there is only one possibility left - this guy should be planning to use his handsome appearance to impress these noble ladies, and use their identity and energy to obtain the information they want. In short, inform the city guard to take this person to drink tea, and you will definitely find a lot of surprises. ”
Io took out his notebook, wrote down the name of the shop and the general description of the waiter's appearance, and happily showed off to Aroma and Gatiss, "Now we have another payment!"
But after only knowing each other for a few days, have you already attributed this reward to "us"? Do you really not regard the two of you as outsiders......
If it weren't for the fact that she now understands that this elf is actually very shrewd, and Aroma is even a little worried, will Io suffer outside...... Now it seems that it is already a blessing that this goods do not plot against others. Compared to her, Gatis thinks that she is inferior - a shrewd person who is consistent on the outside is not shrewd, and he is honest on the outside.13 Once the heart is black, it is terrible.
"I say, what is the matter with this strange mission?" Looking around, not only the hidden hunters were looking for prey, but even many ordinary citizens, presumably tempted by those bounties, looked around from time to time, trying to find a windfall. In this regard, the fragrance of dealing with demons all the year round actually felt a little chilly on her back.
This kind of frenzy of a national nature makes the aroma very uncomfortable.
"Probably, the council wants to muddy the waters completely, right?" Gatis also looked around with some horror, a day ago, this was a prosperous city, but now, in addition to prosperity, there is a hidden infiltrating thought, "For those who don't know, it's just a worry about the hidden spies in the city, but for people with ulterior motives, this is a more oppressive measure than martial law in the whole city." The person who issued this order is really terrible. ”
"Eh, is that an exaggeration?" Io was a little confused.
"I suppose the Empire didn't plan to catch many spies from the beginning, right? Or rather, these spies can only be regarded as desserts at best, not a main course, all they need is the current situation and atmosphere...... However, they probably didn't expect that there would be someone like Io who could take advantage of this opportunity to make a fortune, right......?
Obviously they don't have anything to do, right? (To be continued......)
