==================
I just discussed this type of magic with Lanna, and I didn't expect to encounter it here.
As a result, the truth of the matter becomes increasingly unclear.
Orcs, succubi, Quoge City, and now a magician.
"Even if you are under a restraining spell, you can't be unable to speak a word, right?" Lian Yun said.
Immediately, someone who had worked with him stood up and said, "Stop pretending! You were chatting with us this morning!"
Kelme shook his head vigorously and moved the hand that was pointing at his mouth to his throat.
“Hehe…”
Lanna's expression darkened. She stepped forward, pinched his chin, and squinted at him.
He turned to Lian Yun and said, "Mute."
Mute?!
The person who just confirmed the truth covered his mouth in disbelief: "How could it be! It was clearly this morning..."
Having said this, everyone present understood.
Since he was fine in the morning, Kelme must have become mute not long ago.
In other words, the moment he was exposed, he lost the ability to speak.
"I don't understand."
If he wanted to tell them the truth, he wouldn't have to wait until today. If he wasn't going to tell them at all, then why did the people behind the scenes silence him?
"Even if you're mute, can't you write it down?"
Gerry suddenly said, "He is the only illiterate person in our village."
"To put it bluntly, Kerme can't read, not because he doesn't want to, but because he can't learn."
He is not stupid.
At least judging from his reaction when his life was threatened just now, Kelme is not a fool who knows nothing.
But he just couldn't read, or to be more precise - linking this defect to the reason why the man chose him - he couldn't tell others a thing.
He was picked up by a caravan when he was a teenager. This was not a big problem. At least he could take care of himself and sometimes help take care of his younger siblings.
In short, ever since Gary heard Lian Yun say that there was a traitor, he never doubted him.
He is too simple, what can he hide?
“…”
This is indeed difficult to do.
Lian Yun calmed down and said, "I'm asking you a question, and you only need to nod or shake your head."
Kelme stared and nodded quickly.
"Did you sneak into my room?"
Kelme's eyes wandered, and finally he nodded.
Lian Yun and Lana looked at each other.
Lanna took over the topic: "How did you do it?"
He is just an ordinary human being. How can he go to the room on the second floor?
Kelme was silent.
"Is it you?" Lian Yun raised his voice and pressed on.
It was him but he couldn't explain the reason, and it wasn't him but he admitted it anyway.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Kelme suddenly glanced quickly in one direction and then looked away very quickly.
The people who were staring at him naturally did not miss this small action, and quickly looked in the direction he glanced at -
Buck!
Buck realized he was being noticed, his delicate face paused, then revealed a hint of annoyance: "Why are you looking at me? You won't doubt me, will you?"
Buck has always been trained as the successor to the village chief. Although he is not very old, he has accumulated considerable authority by handling affairs in the village.
Everyone was afraid to speak when they saw this. Aibei, who was usually confused by beauty, raised her hand weakly: "I don't think it's him..."
Before he could finish his words, Lana glared back at him.
The room was completely silent. Only Gerry stepped forward and said, "You were supposed to be with Bart that night, but he said you disappeared for a while. Where did you go?"
Facing the village chief who always protected him, a trace of surprise flashed across the boy's face, and the tears in his beautiful eyes moved slightly.
Lian Yun moved his fingers and was about to step forward.
Buck suddenly moved his feet and turned away.
"Oh..." Lian Yun didn't have time to say anything to keep him, so he had to quicken his pace to catch up.
Buck was alright, she knew.
When signing the resident contract, his intention was clearly written as "I want to have a place where I can feel at ease again", and he successfully became a resident of the town.
But Lian Yun also knew that he was indeed suspicious.
No matter what, Lian Yun hopes to have a frank talk.
Buck avoided the crowd, found a roof, and sat on the wooden floor under the eaves.
He hugged his knees, exuding an attitude of "keep away from strangers". When he saw Lian Yun following him, he turned his head away without saying a word and didn't look at her.
The child has a somewhat aloof personality and is obviously unhappy about being suspected by those around him.
Lian Yun sighed inwardly and sat next to him with her skirt lifted.
"actually……"
"I did it," Buck said suddenly.
Lian Yun choked and swallowed back the words of comfort.
Buck still didn't look at her. He told the truth, and he was not so cold and hard anymore: "If you want to expel me, I have no objection."
Lian Yun: ...
"Aren't you going to explain?"
Lian Yun looked at his stubborn back helplessly, and suddenly realized that he might be in the rebellious period at this age.
Even beings from other worlds and succubi probably can’t escape the curse of age.
No matter what Lian Yun said, it sounded like unpleasant advice to him.
"I'll let it go. After all, we're not familiar with each other. I don't care why you did this. After all, your attack power won't pose any threat to me." Lian Yun changed the subject and stopped taking a gentle offensive. His tone became casual.
Buck paused and involuntarily tilted his head towards her.
"If you want Gerry and the others to be disappointed in you, just leave. I will tell them for you."
"What do you want to tell me?" Buck said quickly.
Lian Yun blinked naturally: "You are absconding from the crime."
"I didn't!" Buck stood up angrily and faced her, his pretty face showing an angry expression. "Kelme just glanced at me, and you suspect I'm colluding with him?! I just went to your room!"
Lian Yun ignored the first sentence for the moment and turned cold in response to the second sentence that made her very unhappy: "Do you think sneaking into a girl's room in the middle of the night is a small matter?"
Buck suddenly paused, his voice gradually becoming quieter: "I just opened the window, I didn't go in..."
"Is it because Lanna would notice you once you step into the house?" Lian Yun sneered. "I don't understand. Do you not understand the common sense of gender differences, or do you lack even the most basic respect for me?"
"Or do you think that because you are young, you can do whatever you want?"
A series of questions bombarded him. Buck raised his head, his thick and long eyelashes fluttering slightly, revealing slightly red eyes: "I didn't!"
Lian Yun folded his arms around his chest and looked at him coldly.
Everyone used to think he was young, aloof, and not good at communicating. Now it seems that this child has been left unattended for too long and is rude and unaware of himself.
No matter how handsome he is, Lian Yun doesn't think this can cover up his shortcomings.
Under Lian Yun's unyielding gaze, Buck bit his lower lip and sat down dejectedly.
"It's the first day I see you, and I don't know if you really have good intentions..."
Not to mention Buck, everyone felt that Lian Yun and his group appeared at the right time. They came down from the sky like saviors and accepted everyone unconditionally.
This undisguised and unrequited kindness makes everyone accept it, but also makes them feel uneasy.
If it is not obtained through your own efforts, you can never enjoy it with peace of mind.
This is also the motivation for their hard work.
Perhaps it was due to racial inclination, or perhaps personal character, but among the panicked crowd, Buck was particularly alert.
On the night they just moved into the town, Lian Yun arranged for everyone to have barbecue in the tavern. He became suspicious when he noticed that Lian Yun did not keep up with the team but left quietly.
He even told his friend Bart not to eat too much, and found an excuse to slip away for a while.
He was afraid that Lian Yun was planning something bad, so he used the succubus's uniquely agile body to cling to the roof and opened Lian Yun's window while hanging upside down.
I didn't feel relieved until I saw that she was really sleeping.
"I was about to close the window, but when I looked up, I found Kelme looking at me expressionlessly not far away. I panicked and when I realized it, I was already back to the tavern." Buck lowered his eyes and his earlobes turned slightly red.
This was not a glorious thing, and he knew it very well.
But he felt at the time that it was worth taking the risk for everyone's safety.
Later, he gradually realized Lian Yun's true kindness and began to realize that his behavior that night was too childish, so he kept it in his heart and didn't say it out loud.
He could feel Gerry's alienation from him, and felt wronged and regretful.
But the stubbornness of teenagers is always so inexplicable.
Lian Yun also went through the same age, and after listening to his explanation, he understood his feelings at that time.
"I understand, but that doesn't mean I can pretend nothing happened." Lian Yun's tone softened a little, still staring at him.
"Are you really doing that just because you're not trusted? Little 'successor' of the village chief, it seems you haven't fully grasped the calmness a leader needs to maintain at all times." Lian Yun teased.
Buck moved his lips awkwardly, as if he had hit the nail on the head.
On the one hand, he cared about the villagers; on the other hand, he was trained as a leader since childhood, but was forced to become the "led" for a while, and he felt unbalanced.
Buck's eyelashes trembled, and he whispered, "I'm sorry."
"My hearing is not very good. What did you say?" Lian Yun raised his eyebrows.
"I'm sorry!" Buck repeated in a high voice, pursing his lips at the end and secretly glancing at Lian Yun's expression, "I won't do this again."
Lian Yun could see that he was truly willing to repent, and she didn't want to dwell on one thing.
Buck has already moved into the town and is a part of it.
There will always be conflicts, but everyone in the town must understand one thing: "unity within and consistency outside."
"Your intentions were good. A few days ago, I was an outsider, so it was understandable that you were wary. But today, our identities towards each other have changed."
"So what I want to criticize you for this time isn't your behavior that night, but the fact that you just turned around and walked away."
If no one caught up, no one would know the truth, and Kelme would be unable to say anything.
If we rely on our imagination, how will things turn out?
"I can choose not to mention what happened that day, but you have to find a way to explain it to everyone. Also, Kelme..."
After opening their hearts, Buck and Lianyun's attitude became much more natural. Upon hearing this, they subconsciously replied, "It doesn't necessarily have to be binding magic."
Um?
