Chapter 567: Eula, did you dye your hair?

Chapter 567: Eula, did you dye your hair?

At this tense moment, the door suddenly made a slight noise.

Then, there was a crisp "click" sound, and the door closed tightly again.

Then, a clear, majestic and cold female voice was heard.

"Master Clown, the invitation has been successfully delivered to the Adventurer's Association..."

Hearing the voice, Shao Yun subconsciously turned his head, and his eyes were instantly attracted by a figure.

The woman who walked in had black and white hair with white as the main color, and she wore her hair in a low ponytail.

There was a pair of striking red cross patterns in her eyes, which exuded a strange sense of deterrence.

The woman was tall and slender, wearing a pair of exquisite pointed high heels.

She has a graceful figure, and her every move reveals an innate domineering and aloof temperament.

Of course, the most important point is that she looks a lot like Eula!

Shao Yun looked at the woman who looked like Youla in front of him. He was a little dazed for a moment and even blurted out involuntarily: "Youla? Why are you wearing colored contact lenses and dyeing your hair?"

However, at this moment, Arecino was so surprised that Shao Yun would appear in front of the Clown so early that he completely ignored his address to her.

After a brief silence, Alechino did not respond to Shao Yun's words, but reached out again to open the door with an expressionless face, without any hesitation.

Then, she walked out of the room without looking back, and closed the door gently. The whole process was smooth and natural.

As the door slowly closed, Shao Yun and Piero were the only ones left in the room again.

Shao Yun immediately understood the whole story. He took a deep breath and slowly explained to Piero.

"There may be some misunderstandings here. My original intention was just to visit Tartaglia's brother Tok."

However, no matter who made the invitation, at this moment, Piero had already seen Shao Yun appear in front of him with his own eyes. For him, this was enough!

Piero said calmly: "There is a saying in the Liyue region, which goes, 'It is better to arrive at the right time than to arrive early.'"

"Since you're here, why don't we have a good chat? I have absolutely no ill intentions."

Shao Yun thought about it and realized that he had no chance to get in touch with Femini. This was a good opportunity...

So, he thought for a moment and nodded readily: "Okay, let me hear what you want to say..."

Piero calmly put forward a very fair and reasonable condition.

"How about this? I ask you a question you can answer, you answer me, and I'll fulfill a request you can do. How do you think that works?"

Shao Yun was also tempted when he heard Piero offer such good conditions.

Piero would never follow Sima Yi's example and fart while pointing at the Luo River.

Thinking of this, Shao Yun nodded, indicating that he agreed to accept the conditions proposed by Piero.

"It seems that you are well prepared. Go ahead and speak." Shao Yun raised his chin and signaled Piero to start asking questions.

Seeing this, Piero no longer hesitated and directly asked the first question.

"The first question is, Rosalyn Kruschika Lowfat, is she dead?"

This question has been lingering in Piero's mind and has become an unsolved mystery.

According to the official Inazuma account, "Rosaline" detonated the shadow furnace core of Tadashi Sand and died together with Baalzebub.

However, the news from the Doctor was not the same.

It was said that it was the scattered soldiers who actually blew up the heart of the Yukage furnace, and Rosaline was sent away by him to the castle tower to look for the heart of the Thunder God.

However, in Xumi, Shao Yun destroyed the doctor's slice with the strongest defense, which made him wonder if Shao Yun had killed him.

After all, Rosaline was the person he rescued personally, and he had to find out the truth about her death no matter what.

When Shao Yun heard Piero's question, his expression did not change at all.

He slowly extended his right thumb and gestured at his neck.

Then he raised his chin again and looked at Piero with a meaningful look.

When Piero saw what Shao Yun did, his heart sank.

He instantly understood the meaning and his expression turned a little ugly.

"I understand."

A puff of foul air suddenly blew out of Piero's nasal cavity. He stared at Shao Yun closely, but ultimately did not say anything more.

After a brief silence, Piero took a deep breath and asked the second question.

"So, what happened in the sky of Xumi three months ago?"

When Shao Yun heard Piero ask this question, he said calmly: "Oh, you ask this."

Shao Yun briefly talked about the deal he made with the devil, which killed a quarter of the people in Xumi, and what happened after he killed the scattered soldiers and finally met the maintainer of heaven's justice.

When Shao Yun told this earth-shaking news in such a calm tone, Piero quickly waved his hand to interrupt Shao Yun's narration.

"Wait! You just said that you saw the Sustainer of Heaven's Law? Can you tell me in detail?"

Seeing that Piero was a little anxious, Shao Yun signaled him to wait and asked slowly, "This should be considered the third question, right?"

Piero obviously didn't expect Shao Yun to do this, and was choked for a moment.

However, the inner desire to obtain this key information eventually overcame the temporary embarrassment. Piero gritted his teeth and nodded vigorously in response.

"Forget it! Tell me now!"

……

Shao Yun also told Piero about how the Heavenly Justice Maintainer used the souls of the deceased owners of the Eye of God to repair the broken border, and what the Heavenly Justice Maintainer said about using Ying as a gas filter to "purify" the abyss.

When the name Ying was mentioned, Piero's expression instantly became a little unnatural, and a trace of imperceptible worry flashed in his eyes.

Of course, Shao Yun hid the details of how he died and suddenly came back to life, as he didn’t want to cause trouble for Candice.

But in reality, as Candice said, the 'Ankh' really doesn't do anything.

So, the story ends with Shao Yun, on the verge of death, holding his breath, and while the Heavenly Justice Maintainer has repaired the crack in the sky, he shoots himself in the back and kills the weakened Maintainer.

Then he held his breath and fell from the sky on the wings of wind.

……

Piero listened to Shao Yun's story with a serious expression and began to recite it.

"The maintainer of heaven's law has fallen into a deep sleep again. The soul of the owner of the Eye of God rises into the sky and is used as raw material to repair the border..."

After he finished muttering, Piero took a deep breath and then slowly exhaled.

He then asked the fourth question.

"The fourth question is, two months ago, we detected a ground wave fluctuation, and then I felt that some things were deleted and modified."

"The only problem I can think of is that something went wrong with the World Tree. Do you know what happened?"

When Shao Yun heard Piero asking about this sensitive topic, his heart tightened and he narrowed his eyes slightly.

After a moment, he looked thoughtful and said in a deliberately drawn-out tone, "You should ask the Grass God about the problem of the World Tree, not me. I'm not the Third Generation Grass God."

Shao Yun thought, after all, this involved his brother-in-law "Kong"'s plan, so the fewer people who knew about it, the better.

After hearing Shao Yun's answer, Piero sat there quietly, looking up and down at Shao Yun in front of him thoughtfully.

After a long while, he spoke to break the deadlock.

"Okay, I don't have any more questions."

"Well, you have answered my first three questions. As for the fourth question... although I didn't get a definite answer, I will just assume that you have given me an answer."

"According to the terms we agreed upon in advance, since you have met my four needs, then in return, I will agree to the four requests you made."

Shao Yun nodded, without any hesitation, and immediately told him what he needed him to do.

"First, I need you to help me find where the families of the missing girls in the Fontaine serial disappearance case are living now."

As soon as this request was made, Piero nodded without hesitation and said, "Of course, this is not a problem."

Seeing that the other party was so straightforward, Shao Yun put forward his second request.

"Second, I need a child from Hearth House called Femini to teach me how to dive and to salvage something with me."

Hearing that it only required the mobilization of personnel from his own organization, Piero thought it would be a piece of cake.

"can."

Shao Yun stated the third request.

"As for the third one... I need you to investigate Marcelle of the Capri Chamber of Commerce. His real name should be Vashé, and he was originally a Winter Solstice man."

"He was the mastermind behind yesterday's attack on Ying and Paimon, and he was also selling 'Les'. I need you to provide evidence to prove his guilt."

As soon as Piero heard Shao Yun's request for information, he readily agreed.

"Simple. This kind of intelligence work is very simple for the Fatui."

Faced with the fourth request, Shao Yun couldn't help but fall into deep thought. He was a little at a loss for a moment and obviously hadn't thought of a suitable one yet.

"As for the fourth one... I haven't thought about it yet." Shao Yun said with a little embarrassment.

At this time, Piero, who was sitting opposite, saw this and had already made up his mind.

He offered an unsolicited suggestion.

"Don't you want to ask your wife's blood relatives about the past stories in Kanreya?"

When Shao Yun heard him mention Ying and Kong's past, he shook his head and replied, "I don't care whether my wife and my eldest brother-in-law are royal relatives or ordinary civilians."

"To me, they are just my family, and that's enough!"

Piero realized that it was useless to say more, so he stopped dwelling on the topic and ended the meeting neatly.

"Ok, I see."

"However, I cannot stay in Fontaine forever. Since the purpose of my visit has been achieved, I must return to Winter Solstice immediately."

"Regarding your fourth request, if it needs to be fulfilled while in Fontaine, can you let Alecino handle it for you?"

After a brief thought, Shao Yun quickly gave an answer.

"can."

After receiving a positive answer, Piero nodded with satisfaction, then turned to the door and shouted: "Alechino, you should have heard our conversation just now."

Alechino's voice came from outside the door.

"I heard you. I'll do it right away."

Before he finished speaking, the rhythmic sound of high heels gradually faded away from near.

Shao Yun turned around quickly upon hearing the voice, his eyes fixed on the direction of the door, a trace of alertness on his face, and lowered his voice to Piero in front of him and said, "Has she been eavesdropping here?"

Piero seemed very calm and composed. He nodded slightly to show his agreement and replied softly, "Don't worry. With her guarding the door, she can prevent others from eavesdropping on our conversation."

After saying this, Piero slowly stood up and adjusted the shawl on his body that symbolized his identity as an executive of the Fatui.

Then he spoke in a calm and serious tone: "I should not stay in Fontaine for too long. I look forward to the day when you will come to the winter solstice as 'friends'."

……

After Piero left, Dadalia came with his brother Toke.

As Tartaglia said, he really just wanted Shao Yun to meet his brother "Tok".

The so-called unexpected benefit he mentioned was a high-end Fontaine dessert, which Paimon would definitely like.

Tartaglia finally found an opportunity.

In a word, it’s bought for the child, how can you, Shao Yun, not accept it?
