Chapter 604: Clorinde who really bought pants

Inside Qianzhi's house, sunlight shines through the window onto the floor, forming patches of mottled light and shadows.

Qianzhi sat at her workbench, drawing clothing designs. These designs were exactly the designs of the four swimsuits that Navia had ordered.

Suddenly, the door of Qianzhi's house was gently pushed open, and a clear and pleasant sound of wind chimes rang out.

Qianzhi subconsciously raised her head and her eyes fell on Shao Yun and Clorinde who had just walked into the store.

The corners of her mouth slightly raised, revealing a kind smile, and she said to Claudinde: "Miss Claudinde, you are really on time!"

Clorinde simply greeted him, "Chiori, I was a little worried that you might have gone out for a walk."

As she spoke, she looked around the store, and her gaze finally returned to Chizhi.

Qianzhi sighed lightly, shook her head helplessly, and said: "Alas, how can I have time to take a walk? The store has been too busy recently... However, I have completed your personal order."

Hearing this, Clorinde's eyes flashed with anticipation, and she got straight to the point and asked, "So, the pants I ordered are ready?"

Qianzhi nodded, then picked up a gift box from the table in front of her, which contained the pants ordered by Clorinde.

"Miss Clorinde, do you want me to help you put it on and see if it fits you?"

Clorinde quickly waved her hand and politely declined, "Don't bother, Chizhi. I believe in your craftsmanship."

Shao Yun, who was standing nearby, widened his eyes and said in disbelief: "You really bought a pair of pants?"

At this moment, his expression looked very strange. He had never expected Clorinde to do such a thing.

Clorinde nodded vigorously and said seriously, "Yes, you did say that before. You also said that as long as I put on pants, my strength will be improved."

Shao Yun looked at the obedient Clorinde in front of him, with a strange look on his face, and teased: "You...you are like a child who has not grown up. You believe everything others say..."

"What if I told you that eating the weeds growing north of Fontaine could cure all diseases, would you really go and chew the grass?"

Although Shao Yun's words were just a joke, Clorinde unexpectedly asked seriously, "So, does eating the grass growing north of Fontaine really have the effect of curing diseases?"

This question really made Shao Yun speechless. He didn't expect that Clorinde would take the joke he made casually seriously.

Afraid that she would really chew the grass, Shao Yun quickly waved his hands and denied it, "Of course it's fake, I just made it up. There's no such thing as wild grass that can cure all diseases!"

"You, why do you believe everything I say? I feel like Paimon could have swindled all your money!"

Qianzhi, who was standing aside and observing the conversation between the two, already understood why Clorinde would come to her specifically to order a pair of pants that did not match the style of the clothes she was wearing.

"Oh... so that's the reason... I was wondering why Clorinde suddenly wanted to buy a pair of pants, which obviously don't match her style at all."

Clorinde looked nonchalant, saying it was of no consequence at all.

For her, dressing is a secondary issue, and improving her own abilities is the top priority!

She vowed, "Don't worry, if this can enhance my strength, I can wear those gorgeous and complicated noble dresses."

Shao Yun felt helpless as he looked at the stubborn Clorinde in front of him.

"Have you not realized it yet? What I said before about wearing pants can improve your strength was just a joke! But you..."

"Well, forget it. It's your freedom to dress however you like. Just hand me the box with the pants. I'll hold it for you..."

Immediately afterwards, Shao Yun took the box containing the pants from Qian Zhi.

Seeing that she got the pants she ordered, Clorinde immediately headed to the next stop and said, "Next stop, we need to buy some food. Let's go."

……

After leaving Qianzhiwu, Shao Yun accompanied Clorinde to buy some Fontaine armor-piercing bullets... Pah! It was Fontaine's bread sticks!

Then I picked some fresh onions, tomatoes, mushrooms and other vegetables.

Clorinde looked at the many paper bags in Shao Yun's arms and said gratefully, "Thank you for helping me carry so many things."

"How about this, I'll cook to thank you, how about that?"

Shao Yun looked at Clorinde's right arm, which was unable to move, and asked doubtfully, "Are you sure you can cook in this state?"

Clorinde was very strong-willed and responded, "When I was 9 years old, my arm was broken and I was surviving in the wild. I also used one hand to make a fire and cook. Don't underestimate me!"

Seeing that Clorinde thought he looked down on her, Shao Yun quickly explained: "That's not what I meant. I wanted to say that you are injured now, and as a patient you should rest well..."

However, before Shao Yun could finish his words, a deafening explosion was heard from a house not far away.

The sudden loud noise made Shao Yun subconsciously take a half step back and couldn't help complaining.

"What the hell! Who was brewing moonshine at home and accidentally blew up the stove?"

Just as Shao Yun was complaining, a man's hoarse roar came from the house where the explosion had just occurred.

"Get out of here, you guys! Don't even think about capturing me alive!"

At the same time, the security team members gathered outside the house shouted towards the house.

"Mr. Mop, please stop resisting! Come out and surrender and stand trial!"

……

Shao Yun looked at the guards in the distance who were looking at each other as if they were facing a formidable enemy and exclaimed, "Is this a war?"

At this moment, a figure was seen rushing towards this side.

Looking closely, it turned out to be Navia.

She ran up to them breathlessly and asked in surprise, "Wow, Clorinde and Mr. Shao Yun, why are you two here?"

Clorinde stared at Navia with a vigilant look on her face and asked, "Don't worry about why we are here, Navia, tell me, what happened here?"

Navia took a deep breath, calmed her rapid breathing a little, and then began to explain: "It's like this, remember the Inquisitor Mopu?"

Hearing the name "Mop", Clorinde's mind flashed back to related memories.

"Oh, I remember now. Isn't he the descendant of that noble family from the old Fontaine era? I heard that he successfully entered the Law Courts after taking the exam two years ago."

Then, Clorinde speculated thoughtfully: "When you mentioned him, you didn't mean to say that he was one of the umbrellas behind the Gabriel Chamber of Commerce, right?"

Navia nodded quickly and vigorously, and continued to tell the two about the current serious situation.

"Yes, that's right. But the operation to capture him this time did not go smoothly. This guy has been resisting desperately and refused to surrender."

"What's worse is that he just ignited the explosives. If we hadn't reacted quickly and dodged in time, we would have been killed!"

At this point, Navia's face showed a hint of fear.

Shao Yun narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at the house in the distance that was surrounded by the security team, and then asked kindly: "Do you need my help?"

After hearing Shao Yun's words, Navia subconsciously looked up at the sky and muttered to herself.

"Did the sun rise from the west today? Shao Yun actually offered to help? This is truly the first time in history!"

Thinking of this, Navia wondered if she was hallucinating.

However, before she could completely recover from her shock, she heard Shao Yun impatiently urging, "Do you want my help or not? Just give me the answer!"

Navia just came to her senses and stammered, "Ah...really? Are you really willing to help?"

Seeing Navia's look, Shao Yun just shrugged lightly and replied: "If you don't need my help, forget it."

Navia was so anxious at this moment that she quickly ran to Shao Yun to stop him, nodding her head and saying, "No, no, no! It's great that you are willing to help! Please follow me!"

As she spoke, she reached out and took the gift box, the bag of breadsticks and several bags of vegetables from Shao Yun's arms.

Seeing this, Shao Yun did not refuse and let Navia take all these things away.

Then, the two of them walked together towards the house surrounded by the guards.

Along the way, Navia was full of curiosity. She kept stealing glances at Shao Yun beside her, trying to figure out why this man who had always been indifferent to other people's affairs suddenly changed his nature and became so warm-hearted today.

Navia had no idea that Shao Yun did this just to help her improve her interpersonal relationships.

……

At the same time, Myles, who was working with the security team, was concentrating on the house in front of him.

Suddenly, he caught a glimpse of Navia walking slowly towards him with several large bags in her arms.

Seeing this, Myles' heart tightened, and he hurried forward, anxiously persuading her: "Miss! Please leave here quickly. Mopu seems to be determined to fight to the end. Don't hurt yourself."

However, in the face of Myles's worries and advice, Navia just smiled calmly and responded softly: "Don't worry, I found a capable helper!"

After saying that, Shao Yun walked over and greeted Myles politely: "Hello, Mr. Myles, long time no see."

Miles took a closer look and recognized that the person in front of him was Shao Yun. He couldn't help but show joy on his face and replied: "Oh, it's you, the young lady's partner!"

Hearing this, Shao Yun shook his head and corrected seriously: "To be precise, the ones who can really be called partners should be Ying and Paimeng."

Hearing Shao Yun's serious words, Navia on the side couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, and hurriedly spoke up to save the situation: "Oh, that was in the past. Aren't we partners now?"

Shao Yun didn't seem to care about this. He waved his hand casually and asked directly: "Okay, these are not important. Tell me, what do I need to do?"

Navia stretched out her right hand, pointed lightly at a member of the security team not far away, and said, "Let's go over and meet Thierry. You may not be familiar with him, but he is an important liaison between our Thorn Rose Society and the security team!"

"He was also involved in the operation to capture Mopu. Let me introduce you to him."

……

At the same time, on the other side, Thierry was staring with a frown at the special training team members who were hurriedly carried away on stretchers because of injuries caused by explosives, and he couldn't help feeling a bit embarrassed.

"Oh, Xia Volei is not here right now. What should we do now? So many members of the special training team are injured... What should we do next?"

At this moment, Navia walked over with Shao Yun quickly, and before they got close, she couldn't wait to ask, "What's the current situation?"

Thierry turned around, shook his head, and sighed, saying, "Ms. Navia, the current situation is not optimistic! Mop is resisting stubbornly and is hiding in his own house and refuses to come out."

"The special training team has tried to get in several times, but each time ended in failure."

He paused for a moment, then added, "What's worse is that he just used explosives, injuring quite a few members of the special training team."

"Everyone is a little scared now, no one dares to rush in easily..."

After hearing what Thierry said, Navia saw that things had become so complicated and difficult, and she secretly felt lucky that she had asked Shao Yun to come and help in time.

So she waved her hand, signaling Thierry not to worry too much, and comforted him: "Don't worry, it's okay. Look, I just invited a capable helper!"

As she spoke, she pushed Shao Yun beside her forward.

As soon as Thierry saw Shao Yun, his eyes widened instantly, his mouth opened wide, and he couldn't help but blurt out.

"Wow! It's Mr. Tacitus! What a surprise!"
