Yu Ai knew very well that just one or two sentences were not enough to conclude that there was something wrong with Jean Whittaker, so she seemed to have suddenly remembered it.
"By the way, I'm not saying that the guards are the shameless ones who use the smell of cod's blood to lure tiger sharks into their territory. I'm just using an analogy. After all, eating fish will definitely have the smell of blood on it."
Yuai's words of excuse had not yet reduced Jose's suspicion, and his next words made Jose's suspicion increase.
She said, "I think the most likely suspect is the guard in the direction the tiger shark entered. Did you find out the direction the tiger shark entered during the wedding ceremony? It definitely wasn't from that side. And this time, it would be best to compare them to see if there are any similarities."
Yuai observed Jean Whitaker's expression and Jose's reaction. Seeing that Jose's brows were getting more and more furrowed, Yuai had reason to suspect that the tiger shark entered from the border guarded by Jean Whitaker.
Having said that, Youai thought Jean Whittaker could keep his composure, but he didn't expect that he had overestimated him.
Perhaps feeling that he could no longer hide the truth, Jean Whittaker suddenly attacked Wensha. Among the group of people nearby, only Wensha had no spiritual power.
It was too late for Jose to stop him. Fortunately, You Ai had been observing him and immediately used his spiritual power to hit him, knocking him to the ground and unable to get up for a long time.
Seeing that she almost flattened the man with one palm, You Ai clicked her tongue in surprise. She had not yet adapted to the fact that she was a level three ability user.
Before Jose could be shocked by Youai's spiritual power, he called the other two guards over, tied up Jean Whitaker, and then turned back after giving them a few instructions.
He said to Mai Fei and You Ai, "Someone will come to take you to the palace soon, just follow them."
"Do we have to go?" You Ai didn't really want to go, because if she went to the palace she would definitely meet the original owner's aunt.
Seeing her expression, Jose shook his head helplessly and said, "You must go. If you hadn't discovered the clues this time, who knows how many similar attacks would have happened. If you perform meritorious service, there will be a reward."
After a pause, he continued, "I know what you're thinking, but here, rewards and punishments are clearly defined. Remember, don't let your emotions get the better of you."
You Ai could only respond obediently. After Jose left, Wen Sha immediately swam over, hugged You Ai and said, "Sister You Ai, you are really amazing."
"It's just so-so, third in the world." She replied casually, not feeling very good.
Wensha listened and asked, "Who's in front?"
This question stumped You Aiwei, but she saw one of them out of the corner of her eye and smiled slightly, "I don't know about others, but your brother-in-law is definitely ahead of me."
Wensha nodded rapidly and said, "My brother-in-law is also very powerful. I heard from my father that no one in Sayinde could beat my brother-in-law."
Yu Ai agreed and nodded, then said with a bit of pride, "Yeah! I think he's amazing too."
The two of them were chatting about random things, while Mou Mi and Mai Fei were reminding them to pay more attention to safety. They thought that at most a guard would be sent to take them there, but they didn't expect the elder to come.
Elder Faye brought four guards to invite them. To be honest, it was quite a big scene.
On the way, they saw Brinbeh looking at them worriedly. Yuai smiled at her, shook her head, and mouthed to her: It's okay.
They walked all the way to the palace. If the architecture of the ceremonial hall had exceeded Yu Ai's concept of the mermaid construction industry, then this palace shocked her even more. It was completely modeled after a castle.
They were led into the temple, and on the throne sat Rakai.
She saw that You Ai was obviously excited, but she didn't move, just sat there and waited for them to salute.
The etiquette of mermaids is relatively simple. They just make a fist with their right hand, place it against their heart, and then bow slightly.
"Yuai Alvota meets Her Majesty the Queen."
"McPhee Alvorta meets Her Majesty the Queen."
When Yu Ai stood up, she saw Ruiko next to Lakai, winking at her. She glanced at her indifferently, pretending not to see it, which made Ruiko furious, but she could do nothing about it.
"Although these two tiger shark attacks didn't result in any fatalities, they did cause considerable damage to our tribe. Fortunately, the two warriors were extremely agile. What reward do you desire?"
The two looked at each other, and Mai Fei asked You Ai to speak, so she spoke, "I want a pass."
Each mermaid race has its own territory. If you want to enter the territory of another mermaid race, you need an approved pass.
Lakai frowned and asked, "A pass?"
"Yes, Your Majesty." Yu Ai responded.
"Why do we need a travel permit? Don't you want to live in Sayinde?" Before Lakai could speak again, Ruiko spoke first.
Yu Ai took McPhee's hand and said, "I want to go to Tuscany."
Every traveler has a feeling of homesickness. Just because Mai Fei didn't say it doesn't mean he doesn't have it. What's more, he had said before that he would take her to see the ceremonial palace in Tuscany.
Hearing this, Mai Fei was also surprised. He didn't expect You Ai to leave the place where she was born and raised for him.
Mermaids have a strong sense of territory, and any mermaid who enters other mermaid races without credentials will be regarded as an invader. He has left the race without any credentials for several years and has become a wanderer. In fact, he can't go back to Tuscany.
But with a pass he can go back, go back openly!
Yu Ai looked at him and said, "What? Didn't you say you would take me to see the ceremonial palace in Tuscany? Are you going to change your mind?"
Looking at the female in front of him with her bright round eyes looking up, he had only one thought in his mind:
She is the only one I cannot let down in this life!
He said, "If you want to go, I will follow you."
Yu Ai nodded, "That's pretty good."
Then he said to Lakai: "I hope Her Majesty will agree."
Lakai disagreed, but as the queen, she could not disagree, so she had to agree.
At Lakai's signal, Elder Faye brought a sign with three big words "Pass" written on it, and some other small words that Youai could not see clearly.
Elder Faye injected spiritual power into the sign, then pressed it against the back of Youai's hand, and the words on it were rubbed onto her hand. He then used the same method to rub the words onto the back of Mai Fei's hand.
This is simply too fantastical, eh! Isn't she the most fantastical one...
She raised her hand and rubbed it, but it didn't come off.
Mai Fei saw her movements and said, "She used special spiritual power. It can't be rubbed off or changed. When we come back, we can ask the elders to remove it."
You Ai nodded, but in his heart he was thinking, what's the point of getting rid of it? He would have to ask for it when he needed it, how much better it would be to keep it and have it available whenever he needed it!
