Chapter 626 Familiar Adjectives
He had originally held out a glimmer of hope for Chisato Hiiragi, thinking that he could get practical help in leaving the island, but he did not expect that it would be another request to deliver a letter, which made him feel extremely annoyed.
Seeing this, Paimon shook her head speechlessly, "You and your father are indeed father and daughter! Can't you change your job?" Following Sora's steps and walking outside, her tone was full of complaints, and she was very dissatisfied with the behavior of the Hiiragi family father and daughter. She waved her fists in the air angrily, and kept muttering, "Why are we delivering letters again? This is too much."
Lin Feng stayed where he was, after all, it was not over yet, and Chisato Hiiragi could indeed help Sora leave the island. But he believed that even if Sora could not leave here by himself, someone would come to take Sora away, but it would take a relatively long time. He knew very well that in this complicated situation, he could not ruin things because of a momentary impulse, so he chose to wait and see. He stood there quietly, watching Sora and Paimon's departing backs calmly, and then looked at Chisato Hiiragi who was a little panicked, thinking in his heart how to balance the interests of all parties and let things develop in a direction that was beneficial to them.
When Chisato Hiiragi saw that Sora and Paimon had turned around and started walking, she immediately tried to stop them, saying, "No, no... please wait a moment!" Her voice was filled with anxiety, and she hurriedly took a few steps forward, trying to stop the two. Her face showed an anxious expression, and even beads of sweat appeared on her forehead, gleaming faintly under the reflection of the lantern. "I hope that you two can send a letter to Narukami Island for me, to Mr. Kamajuri, the second young master of Tenryo Bugyo. My father has always been against our contact, and I guess he has better expectations for my marriage partner politically, but I only have Mr. Kamajuri in my heart. No one on the outlying island can disobey my father's wishes, and you are the rare foreigners who want to go to Narukami Island..."
Hiiragi Chisato didn't pause at all while speaking this long paragraph, and she finished it almost in one breath. The nervous and shy state she had just had completely disappeared, and she looked like a completely different person. It can be seen that she was really anxious about delivering the letter, and Sora seemed to be her only chance. Her eyes were full of pleading, and her hands unconsciously stretched forward, as if she was praying that Sora and Paimon would change their minds.
After listening to Chisato Hiiragi's words, Paimon nodded with deep understanding, "So there is such a difficulty..." If there is such a difficulty, it seems that it is not difficult to understand. However, she and Sora were indeed a little anxious, because they felt a little irritated when they heard about the delivery of the letter after what happened during the day, and the key is that these two are father and daughter, which always seemed to make them even more irritated. She flew back and forth in the air, with a tangled expression on her little face. On the one hand, she could understand Chisato Hiiragi's emotional appeal; on the other hand, she was annoyed by the continuous request to deliver letters. She flew to Sora's side, pulled the corner of Sora's clothes, and whispered, "Why don't we listen to what she says?"
After listening to Paimon's words, Chisato Hiiragi saw that the two did not continue to leave, and she also understood that there was still hope. "Of course, in contrast, I will do my best to help you leave here, please believe me!" Her eyes were full of sincerity and expectation, and she put her hands together, as if begging for the help of the three. She raised her head slightly, staring at Sora closely, hoping to get a response from Sora's eyes. "I still have some abilities on the island. As long as you do me this favor, I will definitely do everything I can to help you leave smoothly." There was a hint of certainty in her tone, as if she was full of confidence in her abilities.
After hearing Chisato Hiiragi's conditions, Sora fell into deep thought. He weighed the pros and cons in his mind. On the one hand, this was indeed a good opportunity to leave the island, but on the other hand, helping to deliver the letter might also bring new troubles. He remembered that the days on the island were full of traps and dangers, and every decision might affect their fate. If something went wrong in the process of delivering the letter, not only would he and his companions be in danger, but Chisato Hiiragi might also be implicated. Moreover, they couldn't completely believe what Chisato Hiiragi said, and no one knew whether there were other hidden risks behind it. After a while, he raised his head helplessly, "Well... it seems to be a good deal, and... there is no other way." Apart from Chisato Hiiragi, there seemed to be no other way. Sora really didn't want to take risks. After all, the days of being wanted were really hard to bear. During the time of being wanted, he had to be careful at all times, for fear of being discovered, and he was highly nervous. He didn't want to go through it again.
Hiiragi Chisato nodded in satisfaction after hearing this, "Actually, as long as you are still in Inazuma... Father has no intention of letting you leave the island." She frowned slightly, with a hint of helplessness in her tone, as if she was also somewhat dissatisfied with her father's actions. She sighed softly, with a hint of loneliness in her eyes, "Father always puts the interests of the family first, and it is difficult for me to change his decision. But I don't want to give up my relationship with Mr. Kamajui, so I can only ask for your help."
Paimon nodded helplessly after hearing what Chisato Hiiragi said, "Yeah, we can see that too. They arranged such a mission just to delay us." There was no other way. What Shinsuke Hiiragi did was too obvious. Paimon couldn't help but grumble a few words when she thought of what happened during the day. She turned in the air and said angrily, "They just want to trap us here. It's too much."
After hearing what Paimon said, Chisato Hiiragi was very happy that the three of them could react. Now she was the only one who could help them. Then she told them what she knew, "A few days ago, I secretly heard my father talking to a haughty woman... They seemed to be talking about how to confine foreign travelers on the island. This is the first time I see my father being so respectful to someone other than the general." Her eyes revealed a trace of worry, and she was obviously wary of the mysterious woman. She approached the three of them and said in a low voice, "The woman has a strong aura. I have never seen my father treat others like this. I'm worried that they have some bad plans, so you must leave the island as soon as possible."
Hearing what Chisato Hiiragi said, Kong suddenly felt that something was wrong. "This arrogant woman...it seems she should leave as soon as possible." A trace of vigilance flashed in his eyes. The actions of the Fatui in Inazuma were like a haze hanging over his heart.
