Chapter 765: One plays the good cop and the other plays the bad cop.

……

After that, Alechino and Villette talked about politics. Shao Yun was not interested in politics. While the two were talking about things, he sat on the sofa in the reception room and took a nap with his eyes closed.

I don’t know how long it took, but Alechino finished talking to Villette. Originally, Alechino wanted to wake up Shao Yun and take him away with him.

But Villette asked Alechino to leave for a while because she wanted to talk to him alone about something.

Then, Villette walked up to Shao Yun, patted him on the shoulder, and asked, "Mr. Shao Yun, I have some questions I want to talk to you about alone."

Shao Yun's consciousness gradually returned from his half-awake state. He blinked, his eyes fell on the Villette beside him, and asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"

That Villette asked straight to the point: "Do you know what happened in Liyue?"

As soon as Shao Yun heard about Liyue's affairs, his originally confused mind suddenly became clear.

Then, a look of annoyance immediately appeared on his face, and he said, "I don't want to talk about Liyue. Sorry."

Navillatte noticed Shao Yun's resistance and did not continue to ask.

"Really? Well, I originally wanted to hire you to represent Fontaine to go to Liyue to check out the specific situation... Since you are unwilling, then I can only find someone else."

"Don't tell me you want Clorinde to go." Shao Yun responded casually, not paying much attention to what Villette said.

The speaker may not mean it, but the listener may take it to heart. Villette's eyes suddenly lit up, and he became very interested in Shao Yun's proposal.

"Claude? She is indeed a good candidate..."

When Shao Yun heard that Villette really wanted Clorinde to go to Liyue, he said awkwardly, "Ah... am I adding workload that doesn't belong to her..."

(Claude: Master, thank you so much!)

……

After Shao Yun walked out of Mo Mang Palace, he looked at Alechino who was waiting for him not far away.

At this moment, she stood there quietly with her arms folded, thinking about something.

Shao Yun walked up to Alechino and asked, "What do you want to do next?"

Alechino raised his head, met Shao Yun's eyes, and replied: "Well...how should I put it, I hope you can act out a play with me."

When Shao Yun heard the word "acting", he almost thought that Fireplace House was also going to enter the Fontaine film industry.

"Acting? What kind of acting?"

Alechino told Shao Yun everything about his plan.

"These people, led by Fjöll and Nantei, wanted to defect from Hearth House. Linni, Linnet, and Femini also violated my orders by harboring Krevi, and they need to accept my punishment."

"But there are some things that you know even if I don't tell you. I don't want to make things worse."

Shao Yun understood what Alechino meant. She wanted him to play the role of a "firefighter" to prevent her "anger" from affecting Lini and the others.

"So, from now on, you and I will play the good cop and the bad cop?"

Aleqi commented frankly: "Well, almost. You are indeed the best lobbyist at the moment."

Although Shao Yun understood Alechino's approach, he still asked a question.

"Can't you just direct and act it out yourself and give your children who made mistakes a break?"

Alechino shook his head and explained seriously, "Although Kugavina and I have different opinions, I agree with her on this point."

"That is, we must firmly uphold the rules of the 'home'. This is a principle that cannot be shaken."

Seeing that he was pretending, Shao Yun didn't say any more nonsense.

After all, Alechino also wants to build up his own authority so that he can manage his own welfare home, so this loophole cannot be opened.

So he changed the subject and asked directly: "Well, in that case, what benefits can I get from helping you?"

Alechino's attitude towards Shao Yun, which was not conducive to his success, was unexpected, but also reasonable.

Although she wanted to complain in her heart, she still took out the corresponding compensation.

"As long as you can do me this favor, I'll take care of all your baby's milk powder and diapers!"

When Shao Yun heard this condition, his eyes lit up immediately and he immediately agreed with a smile: "Okay! Deal!"

Alechino had never expected that Shao Yun would agree so readily, which was a bit unexpected for her. She originally thought that she would need to spend some more time talking or add some chips.

"You agreed so readily."

Shao Yun said as if it was natural: "Because you mentioned my most important need now, raising a child."

……

Fontaine, an unnamed ruin on the south side of the eastern foot of Mount Mansors.

This was once a glorious place, but now only ruins remain, with broken walls and overgrown weeds.

Alechino and Shao Yun arrived first and stood in front of the ruins.

Her eyes swept across the ruins, recalling something.

"This is where I'm going to educate the bad kids next." Alechino's voice echoed in the ruins with a hint of coldness.

Shao Yun looked at the ruins in front of him and asked casually, "Isn't this the place where you killed the previous servant Kugavina?"

Alechino was stunned. She turned around and stared at Shao Yun closely.

"Yes, how did you know?" Alechino's voice was a little low, but revealed a hint of surprise.

Shao Yun shrugged and replied calmly, "I guessed it, but I didn't expect to guess it right at once."

"You are so lucky." Alechino couldn't help but complain. He made a random guess, but he was able to guess so accurately. It was amazing!

Shao Yun smiled noncommittally, then found a suitable stone and sat on it.

"Anyway, I'll just sit aside and observe, and when you're about to kill Linni and the other two, I'll step in and give you a way out." Shao Yun said leisurely.

Alechino nodded and said, "Yes, the task of stabilizing the situation will be left to you from now on."

……

After a while, some children from the Hearth House arrived.

Nothing changes next, it's just a scene of family conflict.

Shao Yun watched quietly from the side, waiting for the opportunity to step forward and mediate as Alechino said.

Arlecino appears extremely angry at Fjöll and Nanteuil for "betraying" their family, and wants them to pay with their lives.

At this tense moment, Linni, Linnet and Femini stood up and tried to plead for Fjöll and Nantui.

Seeing this, Alechino did not compromise easily, but put forward a condition.

Linny and his party must duel with him, and only by convincing him in the duel can he let Fjöll and Nanteuil go.

Faced with this seemingly impossible task, Linny and his team agreed without hesitation.

They probably understood that this was their only chance to save Fjöll and Nanteuil.

The duel began, but the outcome was no surprise.

Arlecino displayed great strength, and with just a few moves, he knocked Linny, Linnet and Femini to the ground, making them unable to even stand up.

During this time, Alechino won the duel so easily without even using his other form.

……

At this moment, Alechino stood in front of Lini and his group who had fallen to the ground, looked at them indifferently, and said lightly: "Is this your strength?"

Although he was beaten badly, Linnie still endured the pain in his body and spoke with difficulty to plead for the two men.

"Ahem, father, please forgive Fjöll and Nanteuil..."

Alechino looked at Lini who fell to the ground expressionlessly, and said in a cold voice: "You failed to win the duel. Why should I forgive a traitor who betrayed my family?"

Just as Arecino raised her iconic sickle "Red Moon Shape" and prepared to deal a fatal blow to Lini and others, Shao Yun realized that it was his turn to step forward and mediate.

"Okay, I think Linni and the others have received enough punishment." Shao Yun shouted loudly.

When Alechino heard Shao Yun's call, his movements paused slightly. He slowly put down the sickle in his hand, turned to look at Shao Yun not far away, and cooperated with Shao Yun's performance.

She raised her eyebrows in surprise and asked, "Oh? Mr. Shao Yun, are you planning to interfere in the internal affairs of our Hearth House?"

Shao Yun responded calmly: "I just think that you are all family, so just punish them as much as possible. Don't make yourself look like a monster. This is not a good thing."

Alechino's eyes moved between Shao Yun and Lini and others lying on the ground. After a moment's silence, he made a decision.

"Well, for the sake of outsiders, Linni, Linnet, and Femini, I accept your request for Fjöll and Nanteuil."

Seeing that Arlecchino had finally given up, Lini let out a long sigh and said, "Finally, it's over..."

Shao Yun pulled up the three children, Linni, Linnite and Femini, who were beaten and lying on the ground, and said, "Go and have a rest quickly. We'll talk about the rest later."

……

After the injured Linny and his group left, Krevi, who was hiding aside, ran excitedly to Alechino.

Although Alechino was not what she remembered, as her best friend, she recognized the person in front of her at a glance, it was "Pepe"!

"Pepe! Is it really you? You've grown this big?"

Alechino looked at Krewei, her eyes trembling slightly, and responded: "Krewei, long time no see..."

……

Alechino and Krevie were chatting alone, so Shao Yun did not disturb the conversation of the childhood best friends and watched from a distance.

Judging from Krevie's expression, she should be having a very happy chat with Alechino, but Alechino had her back to him, so he didn't know what her expression was at the moment.
