Seeing her boyfriend's frown in the character "Chuan" light, Lixia sighed deeply, "Although I can't believe it, I did witness the entire conversation between him and Mr. Arios in Mayor Dita's private room."

With the remote support provided by Ling, Lixia could have wandered in the orchid tower without realizing it, but she could avoid Arios's perception and hear his conversation with Dita...

"Are you sure Senior Brother Arios didn't show you?"

"No……"

Lixia smiled bitterly and shook her head, "He must have seen me. I can feel the sharp sword on his body pointing at me. But for some reason, he did not point out my whereabouts directly. Instead, he naturally continued to talk to Mayor Dita about the plan."

"Oh~"

Ryan leaned on the back of the chair and rubbed his eyebrows. "Maybe... the senior brother is also very confused."

Ryan was not difficult to understand Arios's approach. Since Mrs. Saya's death, her daughter has become his only remaining sustenance.

For many years, Arios has tried various ways to cure Xiaodie's eyesight, hoping to get her back to her normal life.

Professor Sailland's surgery should be the closest success, but the final result still disappointed the father and daughter.

Ryan frowned and tapped the desk in the study and said, "The question now is... When did Senior Brother Arios have been connected to the Kurois family? I don't feel like it started after the recent operation."

Lixia nodded, "Based on his conversation with Mayor Dita, the two seem to have had more than three years of interaction, and they are also connected through lawyer Ian."

"Maybe... your previous guess is correct, and it is the lawyer Ian who provides the overall design for the Kurois family's plans."

"Um……"

Ryan lowered his head and thought, "Senior Brother Arios and his lawyer's relatives both died in the intelligence war between the two major countries. They should have many common topics... So after Mrs. Saya died five years ago, he contacted the Kurois family through his lawyer?"

The sudden appearance of today made both of them feel a little too good. However, before they could think more, the maid downstairs suddenly went upstairs outside the study to report, and the Sword Saint of Wind was looking for a meeting outside.

Ryan and Lisha looked at each other, and Ryan whispered to the maid outside the door, "Please come in and take it directly to the study."

"yes."

Then, under the guidance of the maid, Arios climbed the stairs to the second floor.

Ryan had already opened the study door and leaned against the railing with complicated expressions and looked at the approaching senior brother.

After calming down his inner emotions, Ryan reached out to the study and said, "Senior brother, come in first, Harman, tell Bremer not to let anyone get close to the study."

The pretty maid with orange head bowed respectfully and said, "Yes, Master."

Arios was not surprised to see Lixia, who had not changed her work clothes in the study. The two nodded slightly and signaled to each other without saying a word.

"Huh~"

Sitting back on the chair, Ryan looked straight at Arios who was silent and asked, "Senior Brother, you should have already seen Lisha before, why didn't you tell Dita?"

Although Yi Lixia's secret action ability can escape smoothly even if she is seen by an S-level master, it is inevitable to alert the snake, which will cause some variables to Ryan's original plan.

Arios shook his head gently, "To be honest, I don't know why I did this. Perhaps it was the shaken and confusion in my heart that made me unable to make a decision."

At Ryan's gesture, Arios sat on the sand in the study and sighed, "If the master knew about my behavior, he would definitely be very disappointed... although I think he might have guessed that I would have come to this point."

Speaking of his charlatan master who practiced the "eye of observation" to the extreme, as if he was opening the prophet's hang, Ryan also smiled bitterly and said, "Indeed, Master Yun's ability to understand people's hearts and deduction of the future has reached the level of foreseeability."

"So……"

Ryan looked at Arios and asked solemnly, "Senior Brother, what are your plans for coming to the door this time? You won't want to entrust the little one to me and then settle yourself, right?"

"How could it be?"

Arios chuckled and shook his head, "I wouldn't have escaped responsibility to this extent. Although I have embarked on the wrong path, I have never regretted it for the future of Xiaodie, just..."

Arios looked at Ryan calmly and said, "I instinctively think that you have a way to avoid the worst of things. After all... that most important child of Qiya has always been under your protection."

"Yeah……"

Ryan closed his eyes gently and pondered for a while. Lixia listened quietly to the conversation between her brothers and brothers, without interrupting a word.

After a while, Ryan opened his eyes again. "Sure enough, you already know Qiya's true identity. So, you did have cooperation with the Kurois family a few years ago."

"That's right."

Arios admitted calmly that he was not the kind of person who was good at weaving lies.

"Five years ago, after Saya passed away, I left the police headquarters and transferred to the guerrilla association, but even if I changed my job, I still maintained contact with lawyer Ian."

"In the conversation, Lawyer Ian noticed my confusion and sadness. With similar bereavement experiences, he invited me to join the ridiculous plan of the Kurois family."

Arios shook his head "I have no interest in the so-called establishment of an ideal kingdom and the pursuit of Miss Mariabel's roots, but they said there is a way to modify the cause and effect to revive Saya and restore the light to the little drop, so..."

Ryan frowned and looked at Arios with a calm expression and asked, "Senior Brother, do you really want to resurrect Mrs. Sayan? Modifying the cause and effect is not as simple as you think. Just pulling a thread may cause great changes in the whole world."

"Of course not."

Arios shook his head relievedly, "Although I once thought about resurrecting her when I lost Saya just now, after so many years, Xiaodie and I have gradually surpassed the sadness at that time."

"What I think now is nothing more than Xiaodie's future. The failure of this operation has strengthened my mind. I want to use the power of the treasure to allow Xiaodie to see the light again."

Ryan and Lixia looked at each other, and both sighed at the same time, "Senior Brother, you are so clumsy. Why didn't you say this kind of thing earlier and let me know? Well... it's not too late now."

Arios raised his eyebrows slightly, "What does this mean? Don't you plan to ask me for guilt?"

"crime?"

Ryan spread his hands funnyly, "Senior Brother, have you done something that is unreasonable? I don't believe that with your personality, you can do things that go against your own ideas. No matter what path you have taken, Arios will always be Arios."

"But……"
