27. Dinner Party in the City Lord's Mansion (1)
"Why do you always feel that something is not right in the atmosphere? It's a bit murderous......"
Lin, who vaguely felt that the atmosphere was a little tense, tugged at the corner of Aisha's clothes and asked in a low voice.
"Because someone didn't cause some trouble in this city before?, I think the city lord is also very annoyed, this kind of behavior has obviously broken the rules that many forces here have always defaulted to—today, he may also have the intention of having a showdown with everyone, after all, now he has a big backer behind him. ”
However, one thing was unexpected by Aisha, in her thoughts, the lord of this trading city should be the type of person who is good at clerical work, right?
If you think about it carefully, it's not bad, after all, this kind of turf with staggered power and dogs' teeth may not be able to calm down a civil official.
However, Aisha has no interest in coming forward to make friends with the other party - today she is attending as a representative of the Mage Association, and the Association is usually not interested in this kind of "mundane matter", and it just so happens that this time because of Speaker Skasa, someone from the Mage Association will come to this dinner, which also allows Aisha to get this place...... In other words, for this group of dead houses, it makes no difference who comes.
For these people, even if they have to face so many unhappy faces every year, they still have to pretend to be smiling, it's really helpless. 】
It's a big gathering of smiling tigers......
Of course, not everyone is of this type, and many of them are relatively straightforward and unfancy-like - such as the Lori who has begun to treat others as if nothing else is starting to stuff things into her stomach...... Then Aisha's eyes twitched, because she actually saw that there were people who had the same idea as Rin.
[Turn grief and anger into food......
It's hard to imagine that someone like Saris would abandon the gluttony of the ceremonial image. But luckily, no one can recognize her now......
After seeing several young men who wanted to talk to the mysterious girl, Aisha turned her gaze to the figure beside the city lord, who was also looking at her disciple with a strange expression.
Suddenly, someone pulled the corner of Aisha's clothes.
"Senior, your method is really effective, she really won't kill me anymore after she wakes up!"
In that case, nature is very effective......
Aisha could fully imagine that when Sarisa woke up from the dream and found himself in the situation he was in, the three views were basically recast.
"Did you show her the paper?"
"I saw it, and after reading it, you hugged me—senior, you're so amazing! Old man Skasa couldn't get her to hug me for a long time......"
"Then why does she look bitter and hateful now, turning grief and anger into food?
"Well, I don't know very well, it seems that after she saw the underwear she was wearing, she knew that it was bought for her by her teacher...... Then he went crazy again, and dismantled the branch of the association - but he took my hand to dismantle it, and he was unexpectedly happy!"
Listening to Yan Yu's description, Aisha could probably think of why Salis looked so sad and angry now, most of the time, she was wearing a blue and white stripe or a strawberry bear or something like that, right?
"By the way, why don't you stay with Saris?"
"That's what she's asking for. As soon as she said this, Yan Yu's expression became a little helpless, "She said, if the two of us are together, it will be too easy to attract attention, and today is an occasion like this, let her ...... quietly alone."
This is true, after all, the current Salis and Yan Yu walked out of the city together, they are definitely like a pair of sisters, and the return rate can't be low. It's just that Salis seems to be thinking too simply, even without the bonus of the sister flower, she is definitely not less attractive to men now - at least, compared to Lin, you don't have to worry about lolicon and pedophilia to talk to her.
[Hey, my hands are starting to burst with bruises, right? Don't tell me, this guy will increase his violent tendencies after his sex changes?
Looking at Saris, who was starting to be a little impatient because of the annoyance of everyone, Aisha hurriedly said in Yan Yu's ear: "Now, go back to Saris, remember to hold her arm, and tell those people around you, 'Sister already has me!', Well, remember to call her 'sister' in the future, and you can shout sweeter in private." ”
"But didn't you tell me not to be with her?"
"Stupid ......" Aisha knocked Yan Yu's little head helplessly, "At this time and that time, she asked you to leave to reduce the attention, but now she has been entangled by insects, you can just use it as an excuse for her to get rid of the entanglement...... Got it?"
"Sounds so powerful!
As soon as he got to his master, Yan Yu was more anxious than anyone else, and immediately ran to implement his life plan.
[The seniors can only help you here...... Finally got rid of this little tail!]
In fact, although it can help Saris get rid of temporary entanglement in a sense, in this way, the "sisters" are more lethal together, which can help Aisha attract a lot of attention.
According to the information that Annolence had given him, Aisha's gaze kept moving back and forth between the guests.
Aisha examined all the guests present, and found that all the representatives of the power with heads and faces were not tainted with the slightest breath of cause and effect with the unknown curse.
[Wasn't it planned by any of these people?] Yes, this kind of act that is tantamount to a declaration of war really doesn't look like they did it, but it's unbelievable to say that these people really have nothing to do with what happened before...... If not, then you really have to prepare for the worst, these guys hiding in the shadows, don't want these people to have the same concerns. 】
Aisha was slightly disappointed, if she had even a little relationship with the people present, Aisha could rest comfortable relying on Skarsa to bother her - but now the situation is different, if it is really the plan of some outlaws, Aisha can't stand idly by.
"Huh? This guy ......."
Aisha suddenly found someone very interesting - if I remember correctly, it was the person who had been nailed to the table by her own hand, after all, Aisha was a little impressed by his aura at the time.
In other words, the bandage on his right hand is very conspicuous in this environment.
"YOOOO~ Boy, is your right hand okay?"
"Ah, thanks to the concern, it's no big deal...... Uh, yes...... Is that you?"
It seems that because Aisha was wearing a dress today, the other party didn't recognize the culprit who hurt him for two days at the first time, but soon, he still reacted.
Fortunately, it seems that the other party has no intention of settling accounts with him, which makes the young man breathe a sigh of relief.
"I offended you before, but it was an unintentional move, please don't care, adult...... Those people really have nothing to do with me. ”
"Less, the person I found directly through those people is you and no one else, which means that in essence it is still your subordinate, right? But I'm sure that a head like yours wouldn't do such a stupid thing, don't worry, if anything else, you'll fall that day." ”
The young man breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this.
"Well, I have something to trouble you - rest assured, it won't go beyond your duties, and I won't let you divulge your secrets. ”
"If that's the case, I'll give it a try, but please don't entrust me with too much beyond my ability......"
In this regard, the young man was very happy, although it seemed that he had to agree to the request of a powerful mage, but in the same way, it could also be seen as the other party's initiative to show goodwill? At least, this showed that the other party was not hostile to his side because of the previous offense, which can be regarded as a blessing.
"During this time, you must know about the uproar in the city, right?"
"Do you mean that someone is wantonly spreading vicious curses in the city and killing innocent civilians?" I have heard of it, and there is also some information on the investigation here, I don't know what you ...... about."
"Nothing else, please give me a copy of the details of all the recent victims, as well as the extent of their activities in recent days, and if possible, the cursed items that caused the incident...... If I receive it before sunset tomorrow afternoon, I'll act as if nothing had happened before—how?"
It did sound threatening, but the young man breathed a sigh of relief, after all, Aishati's request was not difficult for him.
“...... This is naturally excellent. ”
