Chapter 848
It's another weekend holiday. Kotori, who has no classes, and Reine, who has no job, are dining at a roadside restaurant and discussing the recent situation.。
“According to Shidao's report, it is now basically certain that the true identity of the elf that Mu Qing took away was a [witch]. As for the reason for the elf's appearance... According to what Shidao heard, it was to get Mu Qing's His men protected him. "
Qinri took a sip of juice and sighed.。
“Although it was different from the actual situation, the scene at that time still touched Shidou a lot. Oh, how should I put it... In Shidou's own words, "The girl's eyes and tone were very sincere, and it didn't look like she was lying." people’。”
“……If that's the case, we should consider the possibility that what she said is the truth, right? Even if the possibility is slim。”
“It's so trivial... It seems that even Lingyin makes you hesitate because of this. I also had the same thought as you.。”
“……Had? "
Lingyin took a sip of coffee with sugar cubes added to it and then slowly raised his head, pushing up his glasses that had slipped a little.。
“Um. "
Qin Li nodded seriously.。
“I asked Shidao to describe in as much detail as possible every word that the elf said from when he appeared to when he was taken away by Mu Qing, and then made a careful comparison. After the comparison results came out, I abandoned my previous ideas. "
Kotori said and cut off a piece of meat with a knife.。
“It can be said that although the story she told sounds very real, there are many differences between what she tells and the facts we have experienced. The truth she mentioned is more like created by combining a part of our experience with her conjecture.。”
“……That's it. "
Lingyin was silent for a moment and then nodded slowly.。
“Didi didi。”
“Huh? Lingyin, there seems to be something ringing in your pocket. Is it a communicator? "
After being pointed out by Kotori, Reiyin slowly took out a communicator with a screen from his pocket. The style was obviously different from the one equipped by Fraxinus and the ship communicator equipped by Phoenix.。
“This is a message receiving device commonly equipped by Arcadia members. It is used to receive tasks assigned by the organization and basic communication among team members.。”
“……Is this thing a little too big as a communicator? And how come you have this, Lingyin? I don’t have any!”
“Hmm... If it goes as expected, all Fraxinus members except you, Kotori, should have obtained this device from Mu Qing or the magician sent by Arcadia. "
Lingyin thought for a moment and then spoke.。
“ha? ! Why? !”
“Because you were in school that day, Qinli, and Mu Qing thought that you didn’t have time to pick up Arcadia’s extra money. At the same time, after modifying the original communicator, you already have a device that can communicate directly with her, so you shouldn’t need this. An ordinary device。”
“……But I will feel unbalanced!”
“Is that so? Then Kotori can communicate with her directly, and she will answer most of your communications. "
Lingyin said while looking at the content on the screen. When he noticed that the message this time was not the usual announcement but a separate private message sent to him, his calm expression gradually changed.。
“What's wrong, Ling Yin? Why did you stand up suddenly?”
“Sorry Kotori, there is something I need to do in Arcadia, and it seems to be quite urgent. "
After saying that, Lingyin called the waiter. After paying the fee, he immediately strode out of the store. He looked tired all year round, but at this moment he felt full of energy. It's just that he looked tired all year round
. After opening the message and glancing at it, Lingyin roughly guessed what the person who sent the message wanted to do.。
“……Really, what on earth is going on to make you so anxious... Is there anything in Arcadia that only Lingyin can do?……”
Kotori muttered to herself, with a strange look on her face。
“Forget it, let’s ask Mu Qing about the communicator earlier... I feel like she’s hiding more and more things from me, including this time, and she hasn’t given any explanation until now. I’m using the communicator as an excuse. You have to ask her carefully! "
As she said that, Kotori took out the communicator and put it on her ear.。
“beep……”
Soon, the communication was connected. Judging from the voice and tone, the person who picked up the communication was not Mu Qing, but Er Ya.。
“Oh, isn't this Xiao Qinli?。”
“Erya? why you? Mu Qing...didn't you bring a communicator?”
“……Well, Xiao Qingqing seemed to have some things to do today, so she left the communicator here with me. Erya
on the other end of the communicator said in a relaxed tone.。
“But it's rare for Kotori to get through this communication... Is there something important to see Xiao Qingqing? Can I convey it to you?”
“Um...well, nothing happened. "
Qin Li was a little at a loss for a moment.
If she was facing Mu Qing, she would have countless ways to cheat, but if she was conveying it... she really couldn't pull it off.……
“Anyway, after Mu Qing is finished working for a while, please send her a message and tell her that I have something to talk to her about.。”
“Okay~"
When Qinli hung up the communication, Erya stretched and turned to look at the petite girl aside.。
“It's kind of like that, right?”
”Um。”
“So... you are going to face the [mastermind] of this world next? Is it really okay to go alone...? "
