Valentina's carriage quickly arrived at the end of their trip, which was a large hotel located in the city of Mia. It seemed that even Valentina, the eldest lady of the Tu Tu family, was in harmony with the hotel.
Ordinary people also need to stay in a hotel, but the only difference is that she temporarily rented the entire hotel for use.
"We will still have to negotiate with the Snow Fox tribe after that. If we rent this place exclusively for living, we can clean it up in advance, and it will be cleaner, right?"
Hedilyn, who was standing at the door, covered her mouth with a smile, and said this to Fisher, who was shocked by Valentina's wealth. They had just gotten off the car at this time, and people were coming from the port one after another, without them.
A luxurious carriage like a carriage also stopped, and the maid who accompanied Valentina from the Narwhal got down.
The Turan family also brought a lot of classics about slimes and trolls, which were also piled on the carriage and needed to be sorted. However, these will be taken care of by dedicated staff, and Heidilin will arrange them all.
Yes, as an employee hired by Valentina, like Balzac and others, he only needs to go to the top floor of the hotel to choose a luxurious suite as his place to rest.
"By the way, Mr. Fisher, I have to be busy with moving things and room issues here for a while. Could you please help Miss Valentina push the wheelchair for the time being?"
Fisher glanced at Valentina, who was sitting in front of the hotel, pushing the tire of the heavy wheelchair under her with both hands but not moving at all. Since the cardinal of the wheelchair under her was damaged, she seemed to have changed.
She became truly disabled, and the disadvantages of losing her legs were fully revealed on her body, making it difficult for her to move even without the help of others.
"Isn't this Phyllis' mission?"
"Ah, that child. Every time she goes to any town, she wants to consume. Valentina also knows this problem with her. If she doesn't consume, she won't be able to enter a full working state. Look at her now.
I don’t know where he went, maybe he went to spend some money?”
Hedilin touched her cheek with some distress, and looked around with some distress. Sure enough, the figure of the lion-man was nowhere to be seen.
"But, Phyllis is very generous in this way. She will bring you a souvenir when she comes back."
"Bring it to me?"
"Hmm, she can even bring Balzac and me. It's just some gadgets. Okay, okay, hurry up and push the eldest lady into the hotel to the top floor. It's cold outside."
Fisher blinked and thought for a moment, then slowly walked behind Valentina who was pushing the wheelchair in vain. While her white hands were still holding the armrests on the wheel, Fisher had already spoken.
,
"Relax, I'll send you up."
Valentina was startled, and when she turned around she saw Fisher with an expressionless face. She hesitated for a second and let go of the armrest on the wheel, then turned her head and said to herself,
"That guy Phyllis ran around happily as soon as he arrived in the city. If it weren't for Hedilin who still had to be busy with other things, it would have been a mistake on my part."
The wheelchair moved forward slowly. Valentina's words were a little awkward, but they probably meant "I didn't need your help." Fisher heard the implication of her words, but he didn't nod and said anything else. He just lowered his head slightly,
But suddenly he discovered that on her petite back, the long white silky hair was slightly flowing, revealing her white neck that was half wrapped in black clothes.
On the part of the neck that connects her body, the black crack-like marks are so eye-catching, adding a fragile and fragmented feeling to her delicate body like a porcelain doll.
Is this the genetic disease she mentioned? Or is this a symptom of the Phoenix bloodline in her body?
Fisher suddenly thought of the way she looked at the Zhenbing at Miya Port. She seemed to be looking for something in the Zhenbing but was suddenly interrupted by the officer. She would definitely look at the Zhenbing again.
What's more, this piece of Zhenbing is right here with her, wouldn't it be easy for her to see it?
If I "accidentally" discover that she is secretly watching Zhen Bing, can I use this as a handle to get more secrets about her body?
Fisher kept looking at her fair neck, his eyes gradually darkened, which made Valentina's back shiver. She turned back to glance at Fisher, and sure enough, she found that he was staring at her as if in a daze. She suddenly
His face turned red with embarrassment, and he gritted his teeth and said,
"What are you looking at?"
"hair."
With a calm expression, Fisher looked away a little, and spoke in a familiar manner, hiding the little plot that came up in his heart.
"Hair? What's so good about hair?"
"Miss Valentina's hair is white, like pure white snow. In my hometown of Nali, no one has such hair color, and it doesn't snow in winter."
".You should have seen such spectacular snow during your time in the north, right?"
"Actually, I met Miss Valentina when I first met her in the Southern Continent."
Valentina pursed her lips, squeezed the ring on her hand tightly with one hand, then slowly turned her head, took several deep breaths before smiling flatly,
". A smooth-tongued Nari. However, when you were on the Iceberg Queen, Captain Alagina was also from the North and had white hair. The first time I saw Xue was also the first time I met her.
That’s the right time.”
Fisher's steps were light, and he pushed Valentina's wheelchair neither too fast nor too slowly. Without Emhardt's restraint, he felt a rare freedom, otherwise he would have to look at himself at this time.
His contempt will not only disturb his state of mind, but more importantly, it will disrupt the implementation of his "Valentina Hidden Bloodline Research Plan".
But at this moment Valentina mentioned Alagina, and Fisher couldn't help but think of the Iceberg Queen from the land of Sardinia. On her ship, there were old Jack and Isabel who had brought out Na Li, and they didn't know.
Have they arrived at the Pirate Harbor?
Fisher shook his head, temporarily getting rid of the associations in his mind, and sighed and said,
"This is different. Captain Alagina's white hair doesn't remind me of the wind and snow in the North. It only reminds me of the waves of the blue sea. Before coming to the North, I had no idea that her temperament is the same as here.
Miss Valentina is different, she makes me feel the pure northern temperament right away."
"Oh, that's how it is"
Valentina blinked thoughtfully and did not ask what he meant by "pure northern temperament".
Because it was Fisher who pushed the wheelchair, Valentina didn't even lean her back on the wheelchair when this relatively unfamiliar man approached her. She just sat upright with great effort. But after hearing these words, she
After hesitating for a few seconds, he leaned back on the wheelchair again.
Fisher pushed her to the door of the elevator. Before Celty and Balzac arrived, he pushed his boss here alone. They seemed to be still busy outside.
matter, so he and Valentina were given an extra chance to communicate. After waiting here for a few minutes, Balzac and Celty came over.
"Sorry boss, I went to the bathroom and was late."
"It doesn't matter, let's go up and divide the rooms first. Many things haven't been moved in today. We can officially start the preparation work tomorrow."
As Valentina spoke, Fisher behind her had already pulled her into the elevator, so she opened her mouth and moved into the elevator. After waiting for the other two employees to come in, the elevator temporarily reopened.
It became quiet, and Fisher temporarily let go of the handle of her wheelchair and closed her eyes to relax.
Only Valentina was touching the ring and suddenly glanced down at her long white hair hanging on her shoulders. She felt that her long hair was not like the wind and snow in the north.
"Aha! I'm back!"
On the top floor of the hotel, Phyllis happily kicked open the conference room door with a large bag of things in her arms. She was the last to arrive, so she didn't have the right to choose a room, but she didn't care at all after buying so many things.
Her eyebrows were curved, and the shape of a tiger's tooth clearly appeared in her open mouth. There were so many things bulging in her arms, and the atmosphere in the conference room in front of her was relatively harmonious.
Valentina was sitting in front of the sofa with her hands folded. On the coffee table in front of her, a chess game commonly played in the Western Continent had reached the middle game.
She was reading the encyclopedia in the hotel before, and now she is watching Balzac and Fisher play chess. Anyway, there is nothing to do now. Originally, Fisher wanted to engrave magic, but he didn't expect that he didn't even have the magic materials.
If he had known it, he would have brought a bag with him first. They had nothing to do, so Valentina suggested that the two of them play chess.
Fisher didn't care. Balzac had a feeling that his pearl had fallen into dust ever since Fisher arrived. Of course, he also had a secret rivalry with Fisher, a scholar, so he readily agreed to a showdown on the chessboard.
The invitation to win or lose turned into such a harmonious afternoon.
"Boss, Boss, and this. Fisher, I brought you souvenirs back."
"Baoba, your mother"
"Hey, let's see, are you going to lose?"
Phyllis came closer and groped in the bag while staring at Balzac harmlessly and said this. Balzac was so angry that he turned his head and gritted his teeth to look at her with a blushing face and a thick neck.
"Can a country bumpkin like you understand chess?"
"I don't understand, but looking at your face, I can tell you are being beaten. Here you go."
Phyllis casually threw a Swali-style silk scarf to him, then took out another cane from the bag that looked like a Nellie style and handed it to Fisher. Fisher was surprised.
I didn't expect that she would give such an expensive gift, so I borrowed the light cane somewhat unexpectedly and said thank you.
When I took it over and looked at it, I saw that this cane seemed to be a commemorative piece made to celebrate the new emperor's accession to the throne. There was a ring of small words engraved on the top,
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty Gedlin X, please allow me to use my works to sing the praises of the decree you issued, so that my family can have enough food and clothing."
Fisher was a little speechless. He suddenly felt hot to the touch while holding the cane in his hand, fearing that it contained some Elizabeth's eavesdropping and tracking magic, but fortunately, after checking it, there was nothing on it.
"Finally, boss, I'll give this to you."
Phyllis finally took out a small silver pendant from the big bag, with a lifelike kitten engraved on it. Valentina's face turned rosy for a moment when she saw the kitten. A second later
Then he coughed lightly, stretched out his hand to Felice, and said with a smile,
"Thank you."
Phyllis shook her tail and walked out of the room holding the remaining large bag of items with satisfaction.
"Then I'll slip away. I'll go back and pack up. It's over. Didn't Hedilin bring down the things I put on the boat?! It's over, it's over."
As the door closed, the room became quiet again. The three people who received the gifts had different expressions on their faces. Only Valentina took a careful look at the kitten statue in her hand, and then couldn't put it down.
Put it in the palm of your hand.
Fisher and Balzac looked at each other, and then Balzac sighed and said,
"You win."
".Accepted."
Fisher's chess skills were taught by Damian. The dean of the military academy was a good chess player. When he was taken to his office to drink tea, he often played chess and used it to decide whether
To punish Fisher, this will not only have the effect of punishing Fisher, but also give Her Royal Highness Elizabeth some face.
Valentina watched the whole process of Balzac Lost Three Games, and she couldn't bear to let her subordinates continue to suffer from Fisher, so she gently turned over the book in her hand and said with a smile,
"Now that the chess game is over, do you two want to answer some questions for me?"
"answer the questions?"
Balzac and Fisher turned to look at Valentina at the same time, and she gently raised the historical encyclopedia in her hand.
"Here is a summary of some historical knowledge. There is nothing going on right now. I will ask the two of you a question and you will answer it. One point will be scored if you answer it. No points will be scored if you cannot answer it. Whoever has more points will win. Of course,
I will add a small bet. Well, there are many interesting books in the Turan family that cannot be borrowed. If anyone wins, I can ask the family to send a book list and you can choose one to read."
"Whether it's a long-lost magical tome, the history related to demihumans, or the secrets of the Shivali Empire, the family has a collection of books with corresponding records. What do you think, do you want to participate in this game?"
Fisher had no interest in it at first, but when he heard about the demihuman race, it was a magic masterpiece, he became slightly moved. The same was true for Balzac. For scholars like them, they can explore more unknown things.
Books and knowledge are what they dream of, so of course they have no intention of rejecting them.
Valentina held the small cat-shaped statue, smiled, spread out the books in her hands, and asked,
"In that case, let's start with the simplest one first. How about asking eleven questions? The first question is, when Shivali was founded, someone claimed that the first emperor killed a white snake.
Go to the throne, so what happened in real history?”
"He did kill a white snake, but that white snake was a hibernating snake he picked up on the roadside. After he returned, he roasted the snake and cooked it into snake soup."
Regarding the issue of his own emperor's ancestors, Balzac, an expelled minister, still retained the most basic respect. Of course, he could not talk nonsense. As a result, Fisher was the first to take the initiative.
"One point for Fischer. Next question, there have been several large-scale battles in the Misty Mountains of Swali. Please name them."
"Two times, the Battle of Kadu was a desperate attempt to invade the distant Kadu from the Misty Mountains; the Battle of the Misty Sea was a naval battle with a small country far away from Kadu. After the initial naval battle, the war gradually spread to the entire
In the Misty Mountains, it was not until a few months later that Shivali's legions cleared out the guerrilla soldiers in the mountains."
"Very good, one point for Balzac. Next question, which ancient country does the current Queen of Shivali inherit her bloodline from?"
"Kadu!"
"Very good, Balzac scores one more point."
Fisher raised his eyebrows, and suddenly realized that all the questions this guy asked were about Shivali. He glanced at Valentina, and the other party also noticed his gaze, looking at Fisher's expression that could be called resentment.
Looking at her, Valentina suddenly wanted to laugh, but she had to remain reserved. She could only maintain her seriousness to maintain her "fairness and impartiality" as a referee.
Very good, just wait for me
Fisher stepped in and his mind started to move quickly. In the next few questions, no matter what Valentina asked, Fisher quickly reacted and answered; after all, Shivali and Na
Li was close to Li Li, so Fischer knew quite a bit about the history of Schwaly, but even so, he was still not as knowledgeable as Balzac, a native of the country.
Moreover, there is a lot of knowledge that both of them know. At this time, it depends on who can speak faster. Under such a question and answer, the two people took turns to answer. Fisher relied on his quick words to even the score very quickly.
Five to five.
This made Valentina a little funny. She flipped through the pages of the book casually, and then finally saw an interesting line in a corner, and asked,
"Okay, the last question. During the death rot epidemic in Shivali, the church's attitude towards the plague changed. They once affectionately called the plague "
Balzac and Fisher answered at the same time, almost in no particular order:
"It's [Bladeless Knight]."
"When people were most hopeless about the plague, the church claimed that the plague came from the mother god's punishment of her children, with the intention of washing away the sins buried deep in human beings. The plague was invisible and intangible, and could not be touched wherever it passed.
But there was mourning all over the place, just like a white knight without a blade, so in later versions, there was an additional saying about a knight without a blade in the Genesis Book."
Fisher opened his mouth to explain, causing Valentina to nod with satisfaction and close the book in her hand.
"Yes, gentlemen, let's consider it a tie. Don't worry, both of you will get the rewards I promised. I will give you the books when the time comes."
