Caitlin waved her hand in front of Li Lin's stunned eyes. "What are you thinking about?"
"No, I'm not thinking about anything." He looked up and smiled, pointing to the clock on the wall. "The parliament is about to start. We have to leave."
"Don't you have your hovercraft? Why are you in such a hurry?"
"I'm not in a hurry, but I'm afraid Mom will be."
"Hmph~~ You're so frivolous again." Caitlin snorted softly, as if she had suddenly thought of something. "Oh, right, you haven't told me why you suddenly wanted to attend the parliament today?"
Li Lin raised his lips to a mysterious smile, "A little secret, you'll know when the time comes."
"Hey, what's wrong with you? Why are you hiding this from me?" Caitlin raised her voice and looked him up and down. "Um... let me guess, is it related to Katarina du Coqao and Tyrone?"
Katarina and Swain seemed to have given up on them since they were imprisoned. So much time has passed, and there has not even been a diplomatic response.
Li Lin suspected that it was very likely that the pale lady was secretly making trouble again, disrupting his plans and layout.
Because now, to the west of the Twin Cities, several city-states in the Rocklund Plains, which belong to Noxus, have rebelled.
Before word could reach the Immortal Bastion, the rebels killed Swain's orderly and captured all the cities.
Not only that, some nobles of the Immortal Bastion seemed to be "overthrowing their superiors" and suddenly jumped out to accuse Swain of leading Noxus to destruction, attempting to choose a new leader.
Simply put, Noxus is now once again caught up in internal disputes and has no time to negotiate with Piltover about the two assassins.
"How are they doing now?" Li Lin avoided the main point and changed the subject.
"The situation is quite good. Although Katarina's mental state is not very good, she has obviously accepted her status as a 'prisoner' more than before."
Caitlyn has been studying leadership matters related to the Piltover Police and Piltover Law Enforcement Department, and has a fairly good understanding of them.
"Are you planning to lock them up for a few months, then exile them like you did the War Masons, permanently restricting their entry?"
"Their value isn't the same as that of a war mason. They're members of the Du Kecao family. Wouldn't it be a shame not to make good use of them?"
"Well, that's true... Wait, why did you change the subject?"
Caitlin suddenly reacted and reached out to lightly hit Li Lin on the chest.
"You know me well. Once my curiosity is piqued, I will investigate no matter what. Tell me the truth. What is your 'plot'?"
Her face was tense, her beautiful blue eyes fixed on Li Lin's, and she spoke in a tone of deliberately interrogating a prisoner.
"The word 'plot' is so inappropriate," Li Lin complained. "Could it be that this is how you think of your husband?"
Hearing the word "husband", Caitlin's face flushed uncontrollably and she punched him on the chest again.
"Why are you so frivolous every day?" She said with a slight pout, her eyes gleaming with dissatisfaction. "If it's not a big deal, why didn't you tell me?"
Li Lin reached out helplessly and wanted to pinch Caitlin's face.
But she had already put on light makeup, so his right hand suddenly turned and gently scratched her nose.
"I'm going to say that I'm going to overthrow Piltover's current political system and bring the two city-states under my control. Do you believe me?" Li Lin said in a deliberately joking tone.
After saying this, Caitlin was stunned for a moment, and her expression changed slightly. "Sure enough, I guessed you had this plan a long time ago."
"ha?"
Caitlin's reaction was very different from what Li Lin expected.
He originally thought that she would just laugh it off as a joke, but unexpectedly, she actually took it seriously.
"Have you discussed this with your mother?"
Li Lin stared at Caitlin, who looked nervous, and shook his head blankly.
"How could you not tell Mom about such an important matter?" she scolded. "You probably didn't tell Mel and Professor Heimerdinger either."
"Kate..."
Li Lin opened his mouth and just as he said Caitlin's name, she interrupted him again: "At this point, the parliament is about to begin. There's no point in saying too much."
The two looked at each other, and Li Lin could only read the concern in her eyes. "You should be ready, right?"
"Um……"
"That's fine." Caitlin breathed a sigh of relief. "Whatever decision you make, I will support you."
She stood on tiptoe and pecked the corner of Li Lin's lips lightly like a dragonfly skimming the water.
"Behind you stands the Jiraman family."
