Chapter 141 The upcoming festival
Before Ryan could continue to ask questions, Ling lifted her skirt and performed a ladylike etiquette. "Let's stop here today. Ling still has a lot of things to find out. I will definitely find opportunities to repay Brother Ryan's kindness."
"Now Ling can only say that what I am looking for is indeed related to the D∴G sect. Once the latest information is obtained, Ling will send it to Brother Ryan through the guidance network."
Finally, Ling showed an iconic prank smile on her face, "Then Ling left first, I hope that the next tea party can be invited to attend, Miss Tio and Brother Reinhardt~"
Seeing Ling pushing the window open and jumping away from the roof, Ryan said with a wry smile, "Sure enough, she has discovered it long ago..."
Cat Lola pulled Larryn's sleeve and said hesitantly, "Lian, is it really good not to tell Estile and Joshua?"
Ryan smiled and picked Maoluo up and walked downstairs. On the way, he whispered in her ear, "That's the matter between the three of them, let's not interfere, and... I guess Yoshuya had noticed Ling's breath just now."
While Harold was telling the truth, Ling was unable to suppress her breath due to emotional fluctuations. With Joshua's alertness, Ling's whereabouts had been discovered.
Since he didn't expose it himself, it's even harder for an outsider to interrupt and say anything, so he simply let them continue to play hide-and-seek in a tacit understanding.
When Ryan came downstairs with Teo in his arms, the people present had completed the first round of exchanges. Royd and the other two finally learned from Estile and Joshua about the truth behind Liber's change last year and the bond between Bright and Ling.
Estil also confirmed his judgment from the several encounters and conversations between Royd and Ling.
"good!"
After wiped away his tears, Estilt smiled in the sun and jumped off the sofa. "Since we have chased him here, let's move all the obstacles on the way home. We must catch her this time and make her a member of my family."
"Haha~" Yoshuya also showed a refreshing smile. "Ling may find it difficult to escape again by being targeted by Estiel who is fully motivated."
Several people who had gradually deepened their relationship decided to have a meal together tonight. Yoshuya offered to go and buy ingredients. Before leaving, she gave Ryan a faint look.
After receiving the signal, Ryan stood up tactfully, "Then I'll go together, plus there are 8 people in Section Chief Selgey, so the ingredients that support the department store may not be enough."
On the way to the West Street Market to buy dinner materials from the side door, Joshua solemnly bowed to Ryan and thanked him. "Ryan, I don't know what to say, but I must remember what you did for me and Estil in my heart."
"Haha, don't be so polite."
Ryan patted Joshua's shoulder with a hearty look, "We are colleagues of the Guerrilla Association, and Senior Brother Cassius has given me much guidance before. According to Eastern customs, we can be considered a family, so we don't have to be so distant."
Joshua nodded with a smile, "Ling has not completely untied all the knots in her heart. Now is not the most suitable time to meet, but once Estil sees her, Ling may not be able to escape. It is just right now."
"When all her secrets were revealed before us, Esthil's decision was the most binding, otherwise Ling would slip away sooner or later even if she came home with us."
Finally, Joshua looked at the crescent moon gradually rising in the night sky and sighed, "The child's final test is to test whether we can accept everything from her, or... she wants to know whether Estiel, the sun girl who has lived in the sun since childhood, can accept her dark side."
Ryan chuckled and quipped, "I believe Estil will make the right decision. Didn't you, the 'black teeth', also be captured by her and become a child foster husband?"
"Ha...yes, but to correct it, strictly speaking, I was taken home by my father, not..."
"Yes yes yes ~ Joshua Bright."
The fourth day of the founding anniversary ended, and this day was once again narrowed the distance between the secret service support department and the Guerrilla Association due to two emergencies.
The so-called sense of competition was mostly unilateral from the police station, and the idea that the association hoped to have more collaborators has never changed.
With the help of the ancient battlefield cooperation and the incident of Colin's loss, Royd and the other two have completely abandoned the vague ideas of competition in their minds. The two sides made an appointment to help each other when there was a difficult entrusting.
The fifth day of the founding anniversary is not only the last day of the entire festival celebration, but also the Black auction will be held at night by Speaker Mithurram Haltmann, and this is often thought of when Ryan works during the day.
Fortunately, a large number of foreign tourists started returning home early today, and the association received a lot of tasks.
Ryan encountered something strange when he was patrolling. He was a little worried about the ancient battlefield where something happened yesterday. In the morning, he asked to go over and see the situation. Unexpectedly, he accidentally encountered Arios, who was supposed to be on a business trip to the Principal of Remifilia near the entrance of the ancient battlefield.
Ryan was surprised to see Arios who seemed to be trance at the ancient battlefield, "Senior Brother Arios? Why are you here? Didn't you board the regular flight ship to Ardante early in the morning?"
Arios obviously didn't expect to meet Ryan here. After hesitating for a moment, he said, "Some personal matters need to be handled. I have notified the Albert Guild this morning that it will postpone the arrival of one day. Why are you here?"
Ryan didn't think much about it. After all, Arios, the Sword of the Wind, is also a human being, and it is normal to have his own affairs to deal with. He scratched his head and explained, "Yesterday, a few strange earth-moving dragons appeared in the ancient battlefield. I plan to come and check if there are new monsters."
Arios nodded, "Then let me go in and check it out. You can perform other tasks first. I will tell Michelle the results of the inspection at noon."
"Well, then I'll bother with my senior brother."
It just so happened that Michel had given Ryan a new mission through Enigma, and it was just right to have Senior Brother Arios helping to deal with the ancient battlefield.
After returning to the city, Ryan learned about the content of the mission from Michelle.
"Find out the purpose of the Republic's intelligence personnel coming to Closebell? How could this task be handed over to the association? Shouldn't it be the second department of Search?"
Michel shrugged and said, "Inspector Donobon of the Second Department has tried it. The other party perfectly avoided all the problems. Even her identity has not been confirmed yet."
"Thanks to the other party's unwillingness to reveal his identity, the association's intervention is not considered as interfering in politics, so it's a side-by-side goal."
"Because this person has some connection with the guerrilla association, the police headquarters handed over the mission to us at the suggestion of the Dudley Search Officer."
"Um……"
Ryan held his chin and thought, "Will there be any Republican intelligence personnel with the association? Could it be..."
Michelle sighed helplessly, "It's the one who shouldn't be. The person who came was Fuxiang Loulan, who once served as a receptionist in the Chase Guerrilla Association branch. It is said that after she resigned, she joined the Central Intelligence Agency personally formed by President Samuel Locksmith."
Chapter completed!
