Chapter 669 Lanqi feels so happy
In the dead of night like this, a layer of light gray mist occasionally obscures the white moonlight, making the living room dim.
The three of them sat at both ends of the sofa next to the glass wall.
"Do you know Tiffany's executioner, Mr. Nigel?"
Lanci asked Countess Rosalinda.
He still had a good impression of the sergeant who spared him and Tata.
If the executioner really had a harsh personality, he wouldn't have hesitated so much after seeing that Lisance seemed to have recovered.
After Lanqi accepted the commission, he would naturally help Talia investigate the reason why the Qingmo tribe was cursed and went berserk. The Executioner Nigel might be a good provider of information.
"Lord Tiffany's Nigel, he is a demon orphan with outstanding fighting talent. When he was a child, he was adopted by a powerful demon in the Person Demon Realm. He grew up with the two daughters of that demon, who were a pair of sisters. However, the younger sister was unfortunately cursed. In the end, on that night, Nigel chopped off the younger sister's head in front of her sisters..."
Rosalinda shook her head and sighed, and said with some reluctance,
"After that, he never met his mentor and childhood sweetheart again, and joined Lord Tiffany, becoming an executioner of the Senate, specializing in killing demons who violated the law and went berserk."
"Has this curse existed a long time ago?"
Lanqi frowned and asked.
He originally thought that it was a frequent occurrence a hundred years ago and had been calm since then, but from what Rosalinda said, there might have been signs in recent years and it was only recently that it began to show signs of an outbreak again.
"In theory, it has never disappeared. It just dropped to a negligible frequency in the past few decades, even lower than the mortality rate of ordinary diseases, so it is no longer a problem. At the same time, for the sake of peace and stability between the humans and the demons of Person, this legend that can easily cause panic on both sides has been deliberately hidden. Until from an unknown moment, this frequency began to become wrong, as if someone had obtained the forbidden curse of the great wizard Parroni and brought back his resentment again."
Countess Rosalinda explained.
"How did Nigel report the incident to the Senate?"
Talia put down her empty glass and asked Rosalinda beside Lanqi.
She didn't want to become the focus of attention of the Person Kingdom as soon as she and Lanqi arrived in Huadu.
"I personally feel that... Nigel didn't report the situation in great detail, nor did he say anything definitive. He just recounted some of what he saw and speculated."
Rosalinda was also confused;
"So according to the information I got from Marquis Lesais in the Senate, Nigel probably admitted that he had misjudged the situation. The demons that appeared to be insane on the airship were not necessarily the same as the curse of the 'grudge of the great wizard Parroni' in the past."
Lanqi and Tata might know more about what is really going on on the Floating Castle airship than she does.
“I see.”
Lanqi said to himself.
Talia noticed that Ranch was deep in thought.
"What's wrong?"
She asked Lanqi in her heart.
"I think Nigel is not necessarily protecting me out of personal attitude, but he may also be hesitant about the Senate and the upper echelons of the demon world, so he did not take us back directly to report the fact that we can break the curse."
Lanqi replied in his mind.
Even Countess Rosalinda didn't know that the two of them could break the curse in another way.
Nigel's secrecy was undoubtedly a disguised way of protecting them.
"In his opinion, anyone in Person could be connected to the curser, but we two foreigners are more innocent, right?"
Talia sent a message.
"That's right."
Lanci confirmed.
When the two of them exchanged thoughts.
"I don't know the specific situation, and I don't want to explore it further, but you two should pay attention. There are still many witnesses who gave different answers to the incident you are involved in. Whether it is the Senate or the Bosen Demon Realm, there may be people who are interested in you because of rumors."
Countess Rosalinda instructed them.
"I see. Thank you, Senior Sister Rosalinda."
Lanqi nodded in thanks.
"No matter what, as a platinum-level card maker of the Hutton Kingdom, the Senate will take your identity into consideration and will not do anything that would offend the Hutton Kingdom. After all, we promised Hutton that we would ensure your safety."
Rosalinda said this and handed Lanqi the light golden metal mechanism box that had been placed next to the sofa.
Lanqi took it slowly. Without opening it, he could roughly feel that it contained his certificate as a platinum-level card maker, the examiner's uniform, and the facial decoration.
Of course, some of the items belonged to the examiner's assistant Tata. Before coming to the Kingdom of Person, Talia had registered the information with Professor Bolao.
"The questions for the three exams this year have not yet been determined by the headquarters, but you will definitely be the main examiner in one exam and the deputy examiner in another. You will partner with me once, and another time with another platinum-level card maker from the Kingdom of Alolan."
Countess Rosalinda reached out and pressed lightly on the mechanism box, and then the machine gradually untied and scattered, signaling Lanqi to check the items in the mechanism box.
"Can't I be the co-examiner for both sessions?"
Lanqi asked as he began to count.
To be honest, he is not very good at some of the test questions, and he is also a person who is not good at one subject well.
"No, you can't slack off. After all, the salary for invigilation is not low."
Rosalinda's eyes narrowed and she stared at Lanqi.
The remuneration given by the invigilator to the examiner can be converted into the currency of the Federal Bank of the Kingdom of the Southern Continent, or the inventory of the Southern Continent Card Makers Association can be purchased at a lower discount. At the same time, in order to maintain the platinum qualification and rights, it is necessary to attend or undertake the official duties of the Southern Continent Card Makers Association regularly.
"Then please take good care of me."
Lanqi could only nod and smile helplessly.
As a convention, the exam will start a week later, and they, as examiners, will only know the exam questions two days before the exam.
"You can come to the Southern Continent Card Creators Association branch in Huadu in a few days. I will personally explain the details of the exam to you then."
Countess Rosalinda instructed them both.
"What about these days?"
Talia asked.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
"You are free to go sightseeing. You can go shopping in the Flower City Pariel. By the way, if you can't find some materials in the Card Creator Association's inventory, you can go to the Flower City Petras Auction House. They are also a huge chain store in the southern continent. Maybe they will have the treasures you want."
Countess Rosalinda thought about it.
She remembered that Professor Bolao had told her about the materials the two men wanted, and she had already found ways to prepare some of them for them that could be purchased quickly.
"No matter what, you two better not go to the police station again. If you commit another crime while on bail, I won't be able to get you out, and you will be criticized in the newspapers."
After she said that, she felt a little worried again and emphasized it again to Lanqi and Tata.
“…”
The two people sitting opposite each other on the sofa lowered their heads in embarrassment.
It is indeed very shameful to go to jail for fighting.
But Lanqi thought from another perspective that the police in Huadu were really amazing.
Even the devil can be arrested.
“…”
Talia glanced at Lankey.
Of course, both of them are responsible for being sent to police station.
But before she met Lanqi, she had never been arrested in any country in the southern continent in all these years.
It's all because of this guy that she became so easily excited and not like herself anymore.
"Why is Huadu conducting strict inspections recently?"
Lanqi suddenly thought of what Chief Inspector Zefa said when he left the Pariel Police Headquarters.
Normally the police station is not responsible for investigating cases related to the demon curse. Once an incident occurs, the police will hand it over to the Senate's executive force for special handling.
So it is obvious that their recent changes in affairs do not seem to have much to do with the demon clan.
"Yes, you two should pay attention. Recently, it seems that two or three cardinals are moving towards Person. Their purpose seems to be to destroy the bishop."
Countess Rosalinda seemed to remember something and quickly said to the two, "The police's biggest goal right now is to arrest a cardinal. This will maximize their performance in recent years and make a significant contribution to the city's public security."
She explained what was happening at the police station.
Under normal circumstances, it is impossible to arrest a cardinal, as he might turn around and take down the entire city.
But at present, Bishop of Destruction Ivanos is seriously injured. Judging from his behavior, there is a high probability that he has concealed his identity and sneaked into the Kingdom of Person.
Apart from the saying that "the most dangerous place is often the safest place", there are also protective barriers in some large city-states, so other cardinals cannot attack her at will, otherwise they will immediately attract the encirclement of national defense forces away from home. Therefore, hiding in the territory of the United Parliament of the Kingdom is also a kind of protection for Bishop Ivanos of Destruction.
If the police in Bosnia and Herzegovina step up their search, they may be able to hit the jackpot and complete the feat of arresting the cardinal.
After listening to Rosalinda's story, Lanci and Talia both breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out to be the right decision not to bring Hyperion with them, otherwise the cardinal might have targeted her.
"The United Kingdom Parliament also found it very interesting. Their analysts said that there is indeed a certain probability that the cardinal can be caught through the police."
Rosalinda continued to tell the two about interesting things happening in the Western Central Region, the Kingdom of Canberra, and the headquarters of the United Kingdom Parliament. "So the next divination will probably focus on verifying the restrictions that the Persian Kingdom has placed on the cardinals and the cardinals' whereabouts in Persian. If a cardinal accidentally violates the rules many times, the records of the violations may be exposed and made into a legal publicity film."
No matter what the result is, she believes it will be a good publicity for public security.
Lanqi also laughed after hearing this.
As far as he could remember, there were no funny cardinals; all of them were horrific.
"Haha, if a cardinal really gets caught, it will be a comedy. He will have to be put in jail."
He commented with a happy smile.
