Seeing that Di Ting was leading the way with his short legs, but at a speed far faster than humans could run on two feet, Liu Yun's eyes lit up, and she didn't seem to be sad at all about the destruction of the "drone" just now.
"The drone that was destroyed by the Immortal Lord looks very valuable... The General personally approved Jing Liu's wish. The responsibility lies with us. Luofu will make up for all the losses."
But when Fu Xuan heard the immortal who looked like a parent talking about the work, she immediately remembered her accidental loss.
"You are too generous. Although it is a unique piece, it is just a tool for my disciples to enjoy. I will just make another one."
Liu Yun was very satisfied with Fu Xuan's respect - her need for fame and fortune was far lower than Kong's, and this was what she liked.
"Since you are interested in Di Ting, how about I give this to you as compensation later?"
"That's too polite."
"Master Taibu has really thought it through. Let Tianbosi express his apologies on behalf of Luofu~? The funds approved by Yukongsi are enough for us to spend a lot of money in Jinren Lane~"
Little Di Ting had no reaction to his fate of being sent away. He wandered around here and sniffed there, but the distances between the places he stopped were extremely wide. It could be seen that the individual who left the traces was continuously running, and each time he landed he would fly a long distance.
"Has there been a battle nearby?" Seeing Kong lowering his head to check, Sanyue came over and tried to make a judgment with the half-baked tracking knowledge she learned from the light cone.
"No, they must have been in a hurry to move... No, these marks are not from Kafka and Blade..."
Sora raised an eyebrow and gently touched the light footprints on the ground.
She looked very heavy in her armor, but in fact her steps were still light. Without other evidence, it would be difficult to locate the traces she left behind.
"Sam is counter-located..."
Obviously, all the data read by Di Ting pointed to the hunter girl whose evidence was not included in the official Luofu records, but when did Tingyun collect Sam's cortical cells or hair?
This means that when she handed over the talisman, she had secretly picked up Sam's genetic evidence in a place where he didn't notice...
As expected, no one in the tavern is an easy person to deal with. Tingyun has deceived him twice, and it is definitely not because of his lack of concentration.
Kong's subtle glance earned Tingyun's ears to turn quietly. But she still maintained the "fawning" attitude after paying attention to Liu, as if she noticed Kong's stare, but deliberately pretended not to pay attention.
Sanyue, who was squatting with Kong, saw that his eyes contained some inquiring questions and moved closer curiously. But then she heard Di Ting looking up and making a wonderful call to her. Between the cute little lion and Kong's handsome profile, Sanyue finally chose to hug Di Ting with some hesitation.
Then the little guy escaped nimbly.
I don’t know if he sensed March’s momentary hesitation and felt that her belief was not firm, so he didn’t let her do it.
"Ah, why are you running away!"
"...Don't interfere with public officials in their investigations...Let's go, let's go."
Sanyue, who was disliked by both the interested man and the little cutie, puffed up her face, raised her camera, and took a few pictures of the half-raised drum in the air, as if to vent her anger.
Don't mention it...it looks pretty good.
"If you have more, please share one with me."
"Wow, when did you appear behind me again?!"
Sanyue had just put down the Polaroid camera with a sly smile when Shen He suddenly appeared from behind her like a ghost.
"I've been following you to prevent Miss March from getting hurt."
To be precise, it was to prevent Kong from getting hurt and to look after her.
"…Do you really want to?"
After staring at the other person's pretty face that lacked any emotional response for a long time, Sanyue didn't know what was wrong with her and handed over the four photos she had taken in a row.
Although she felt a little uncomfortable being bullied by the black slime, she could feel that Shen He was the type who couldn't express his intense emotions... He was not a bad person by nature, nor did he have a strong possessiveness, he just often did shocking things.
"……Thanks."
As if to reinforce the impression that Sanyue had just formed, Shen He put the newly acquired photo to his nose and sniffed it in front of her - of course, there was only the smell of a photocopy and no scent of a man.
This nonsensical action left Sanyue speechless on the spot.
She has always been the most cared for girl on the bus, but the appearance of Shen He gave her an unreasonable sense of responsibility...
⑨This immortal, who looks much older than her, probably has no common sense of life or society at all.
娰 “…Don’t share it with others! But if other companions are interested… well, you can do whatever you want.”
Even though Bayanyue felt very uncomfortable, she didn't dare to tell Shen Heming that what she had just done was a nymphomaniac behavior and was very scary.
2. “Will it have a negative impact?”
⒋“That’s right, so it’s only for internal digestion——hehe.”
3 "I understand. Only give it to those who have a good relationship with him?"
㈢ "… About the same?"
0 While Shen He nodded to indicate that he had "completely understood", Jackdaw also leaned over from behind. She saw the two of them snapping away for a long time, and she thought they had found some special evidence that the judge couldn't identify:
5 "Did you capture the hunter's hidden traces?"
"Well... here you go."
So before March could show an Anya-like smile for a few seconds, Shen He turned around and stuffed a photo of Kong's Dabiku to the Jackdaw who "came after hearing the news". He was so generous and natural.
"…Wait! She's not—no, is she??"
March tried to stop it, but it was too late.
The jackdaw's equally dull eyes fell on the conspicuous groove line in the photo, and it seemed as if its brain was "reconnecting signals" for a long time before it slightly widened its eyes and confirmed that Shen He looked "solemn" and did not seem to be joking, then it calmly stuffed the photo into its waist bag.
"……Thanks."
"You're welcome."
You’re welcome... What the hell!
...Can't you guys just have a normal conversation? Why are you so in sync?
Pink-haired girl grabbed Shen He's slender hand frantically, and moved her throat several times, but she didn't know how to imply that "this woman is not one of us."
"If we have a good relationship... does Judge Jackdaw not count?" Shen He tilted his head.
Not to mention, her three-no face combined with the tilted head action actually hit March's strike zone, making her indulge in the ultimate aesthetic of contrast for a moment.
"Maybe... I guess."
March glanced at the Jackdaw hesitantly - but the judge, who was supposed to refuse all bribes, looked away as if nothing had happened.
It was clear that I was doing business with Kong yesterday, why is there such a big difference between the first and the last?
...It is completely impossible to come back now. She hopes that Kong will not find out, otherwise her little drum will most likely be in trouble.
"What are you mumbling about, little Sanyue? Come quickly, the trace ends here, and there's someone nearby."
After Di Ting chased to the courtyard, he wagged his fluffy tail and barked into the air several times.
"Gewuyuan..."
Cocolia just smiled at March's anxious back, and when she turned around, she saw the plaque pierced by Jianmu with large words written on it that even the synesthesia beacon could not translate.
"Hey, aren't there just ordinary houses around here? Why are you so sure that the other party is close to us even though the trace has been cut off? It doesn't even show up on the small map—"
Although she was "looking forward" to Kong showing her a doting but helpless smile, Sanyue still tried her best to straighten her posture so that her secret filming would not be exposed too early.
"Because there are anti-tracking arrangements around them. It looks like Kafka's work. If they are in the other phase or space, the system cannot mark them."
"…It is due east, that sword master has a very sharp intuition."
Liu Yun put two fingers together, and the green shadow flickered for a moment, then became barely perceptible. But upon closer inspection, spider silk emitting purple light lit up in front of everyone, and it was as densely packed as a Panshi Cave.
"Wow! What, what are these?"
"It's a restriction, Miss March, please stay away. It could be risky if you touch it by mistake." The Jackdaw, who had just received the "benefit", obviously cared more about the life and death of Pink Hair and White Hair than before.
Yue: "I have fought with that hunter before, let me try to crack it-"
But just as she was about to begin to open these thin threads made of spiritual energy, a shadow mixed with orange, yellow and fluorescent green suddenly flashed in the depths of the "nest" of Gewuyuan.
Group "No need, it took her a long time to set up the trap."
:The visor of the Grammer Knight who appeared flickered faintly. I don’t know if it was an illusion, but her aura was more agitated and dangerous than when they met last time.
But the moment he looked into Kong's eyes, his guard was halfway eliminated.
⑤ “You are here indeed——”
㈦Seeing Kong standing in the front, her voice was brisk with a hint of girlish excitement, but through the processing of the armor, her voice just sounded a little crisper and brighter.
㈥Sora didn't know how to greet her, whether to be restrained or enthusiastic, so he could only raise his hand and make a meaningless "hmm":
"Why did you build a safe house here? Why don't you get out of this cave?"
3 "There are some emergencies that require us to stay, and... Kafka said you might need our additional assistance as well."
⑷Sam took the initiative to step forward to greet them, and waved his hand in front of the spider web: "...Please wait outside the door for a moment, Sora, come in and talk."
㈣"Huh? This is not good, right? We are here to rescue you, why are you still avoiding us?" Xiao Sanyue's face immediately fell.
2. "…I'm not avoiding you, but there are Xianzhou officials present."
Acquaintances are also divided into different levels - Sam does not trust Fu Xuan, especially he has a vague hostility towards Jackdaw who has chased Ren and was ordered to plot against Kong.
"Luofu's Grand Fortune Teller and Judge, Kong, has declared that he has left the Hunters, and we have indeed removed him from the list... We hope that the official record of his subsequent secret talks with us will be 'commissioned' by you to do so."
Sam is quite clear about the stereotype of the Star Core Hunters being "evil" in the eyes of outsiders:
"It can save you a lot of trouble. Otherwise, if Hua were to investigate, it would be difficult for you to handle it."
"Then the doctor will be entrusted by me to negotiate with you."
Fu Xuan looked a little unhappy, but she couldn't afford to lose her temper at this critical moment: "I think the swordsman can no longer suppress his injuries, and needs you to protect him. Oh, you don't want to show your weak side to outsiders? I understand."
"Ok?"
Kong was stunned and cast a questioning look at Sam. There was a hint of anxiety in his eyes behind the mask, which seemed to have hit upon her concerns.
"Let us have one more in—the captain must have guards with him."
Before Kong could take a step forward, Shen He seemed to follow in, and was immediately put on guard again by Sam, both of them taking a battle stance - Lao Yang had no choice but to speak up and make a request quickly to minimize the risk of a conflict breaking out.
"Everyone in the world could hurt him, except us. Your worry is unnecessary."
After staring at Shen He for a few seconds, Sam reluctantly relaxed his fighting stance.
Looking at the way Shen He took out Xi Zai and blocked Kong just now, he really cherishes him... There is no need to conflict with a friend who really cares about him.
But the script was like some kind of iron rule. Elio said that there would be a party in the Institute of Gewu for only the Star Core Hunters to participate, so no one else could be allowed in, even Kong's "lover" would have to be turned away.
