Chapter 143 The Bold Conjecture About Captain Dragonfly (2 in 1)
Chapter 143 Bold conjecture about Captain Dragonfly (2-in-1)
"Okay! I've long since disliked those heavenly beings!"
At the tatami table, Xia Li turned her head to look at the news, and suddenly put down her chopsticks with some indignation and said.
After saying that, she picked up the chopsticks again and continued to stare blankly at the tumbling beef in the sukiyaki pot.
Although she is a glutton, she still knows table manners, and she does not dare to move her chopsticks if others do not.
Hearing Xia Li's words, Higashinohara looked at her in surprise.
Even Kolodya, who was busy adding vegetables to the Sukiyaki pot with serving chopsticks, couldn't help but turn her gaze slightly and glanced at Xia Li's short silver-white hair and two energetic furry pointed ears, and then
Fearing that the other party would misunderstand and resent him, he quickly looked away.
After becoming familiar with Xia Li, Higashinohara didn't have so many concerns about this Tianhu girl. After thinking about it, he couldn't help but ask, "Why don't you like the sight of heaven and humans?"
You can be considered half a celestial being, right?
Is it because he is looked down upon because of his impure blood?
Charlie didn't turn her head, her eyes were still fixed on the slurping beef slices. Coladia couldn't see it any longer, so she added a chopstick of beef into Charlie's bowl with serving chopsticks, "Charlie-chan,
Come and help me try it and see how it tastes? Be careful to burn it."
"Ah? Then why are you so embarrassed? Thank you, sister Kolodia."
Charlie suddenly beamed, her eyes and eyebrows almost squeezed together. She picked up a chopstick and selectively omitted the second half of Kolodya's sentence. She stuffed it into her mouth without even blowing it, and then raised her head.
, his eyes narrowed to a slit, and his face was bathed in the glow of happiness.
But at least she still knew whose house she was in. She chewed the fresh beef in a few mouthfuls and gave a thumbs up to Colodia.
Immediately faced with the question of her master Higashinohara, Charlie turned her head and shook her head and said angrily, "Huh! Those heavenly beings are so arrogant that they often bullied us in my hometown. Some people in my hometown didn't have enough to eat and joined the revolutionary army. The ruling
Si also came to his hometown and arrested all his family members."
Charlie got very angry when she talked about this.
After her parents passed away, her younger sister couldn't have enough to eat with her, so she had no choice but to give her up for adoption.
After she was left alone to live her life, she was very excited when she heard that joining the revolutionary army would give her enough to eat. She even dreamed about the happy life of having enough to eat every day after joining the revolutionary army.
Unexpectedly, people from the Adjudication Department entered the village the next day and announced that some villagers' relatives had joined the revolutionary army. The family members were also implicated and were arrested and interrogated.
Charlie was dumbfounded on the spot.
She wanted to be full every meal, right?
But I don’t want my sister to be caught either.
She could only leave her hometown in tears, take a train to New Tokyo and start "drifting eastward". In her eyes, the Tianhe Adjudication Department was the instigator of all this.
Higashinohara heard a lot about Charlie Barabara,
To sum it up in just four words,
class differences,
There was a hint of thoughtfulness on his face. A mixed-race child from a remote area like Xia Li was undoubtedly at the bottom of heaven. So are there many other people with purer blood than Xia Li who are not protected by nature?
Where are the heavenly beings that human nobles want to see?
The answer is of course yes.
It seems that the world of gods is not monolithic. Higashinohara's face showed some relief.
To be honest, he was wanted by the Celestial World Government during this period, and the Wano government also labeled him as a high-risk terrorist under pressure. When he opened his eyes every day, he felt like he was "the enemy of the whole world."
Although this is aimed at his other identity, and his true identity has not yet been exposed, it is definitely impossible without some psychological pressure.
Higashinohara is not only worried about the series of troubles that will arise if his identity is exposed one day, but he is also worried that if public opinion is constantly controlled by the World Government, lies told a thousand times will become the truth.
Although he does most of the things just to get what he wants and complete the task, and never expects to receive any awards or commendations for the things he does, he still doesn't hope that one day he will become a street rat that everyone yells at.
Now hearing Xia Li's words, Higashinohara couldn't help but think about something.
The public may not be completely incapable of distinguishing between those media and TV stations that dominate public opinion, but many times they are involuntarily more willing to believe what is in their own interests. Poor and isolated people like Xia Li who "drifted eastward" are the opposite.
It is easier to speak quickly, but it is a pity that those who are dissatisfied with the Judgment and the Celestial World Government do not have the ability to express their voices for the time being.
Next to the steaming sukiyaki pot, Charlie took the lead, and Nishimaru Miria and Coladia also clapped their chopsticks and shouted in unison, "I'm starting."
Before starting the meal, Nishimaru Miria took a chopstick of beef to Higashinohara who was in a daze.
Higashinohara came back to his senses, smiled and shook his head, not thinking about all this, raised his head and thanked Nishimaru Miria with a smile, picked it up and put it in his mouth.
I have to say that Kolodya's cooking skills are really good. I really don't know where she, a princess, learned it. The beef is tender and delicious in the mouth, and the soup mixed with the sukiyaki pot stimulates the taste buds. It is full of flavor in one bite.
Satisfaction.
Kolodya kept looking at Higashinohara secretly, observing his expression.
Although she is now nominally staying at Miria Nishimaru's house, she has also seen in the past two days that Miria Nishimaru is very dependent on Higashinohara.
In other words, Higashinohara is the "talker" here.
"It tastes very good. Thank you so much for today." At this time, Higashinohara smiled and said to Colodia.
On the side, Charlie nodded fiercely, chewed meat in her mouth, shook her head vaguely, and gave a thumbs up, "It's delicious! Sister Coladia's cooking is the most delicious dish I have ever eaten.
!”
Clodia immediately smiled and narrowed her eyes, and her two thin eyebrows came together - for her now, this kind of praise is undoubtedly the most reassuring words.
"By the way, how was Miss Oselet's work today?"
Higashinohara remembered that when he and Nishimaru Miria went to school in the morning, Coladia also went out to apply for several jobs, including a salesperson in a bakery and a waiter in an izakaya and milk tea shop.
Hearing Higashinohara's question, the smile on Kolodya's face gradually faded, and she said with a grimace, "It didn't work out. When they saw me, they said I might not last long and were unwilling to hire me."
How is this going?
Higashinohara glanced at Coladia with some confusion, and then he suddenly became enlightened.
There is no way, Kolodya was born in a grand ducal family after all. No matter how peaceful her personality is, it is difficult to erase the natural aristocratic aura in her body when facing strangers.
If he and Xia Li were to go for an interview at the same time, there would be no need to think too much. They would definitely choose Xia Li, a energetic Tianhu girl, instead of a pampered aristocratic lady like Coladia, who seems to be coddled and weak.
And maybe this aristocratic lady has some drama about "running away from home to experience life". Those shops are all small businesses, and the cost of employment is very tight. Naturally, they are even less likely to bear this possibility.
There is a risk of wasting money.
When Charlie heard that Kolodya had difficulty finding a job and was short-tongued, and she thought she had rich experience in finding a job, she ate and came up with random ideas.
The meal was quite lively.
Even until she was almost finished eating, she didn't come up with any reliable ideas.
In the end, Higashinohara could only reassure Kolodya not to worry, settle here with peace of mind, and search slowly, and he would always find a suitable job.
At the same time, when Higashinohara's "family of four" was happily eating sukiyaki.
In a separate room on the second floor of the luxurious official residence of the New Tokyo Adjudication Division branch.
Unknown fur is spread on the gray floor underfoot, the surrounding walls and decorations are also in dark gray and cold tones, and the handrails on the century-old spiral staircase leading to the first floor are a layer of dull gray.
It must be said that the overall style of this official residence is very consistent with the cold and gloomy office style of the Adjudication Division.
The Seventh Judgment made Gaius Rhine sit behind the black desk made of precious wood. Through the report from his subordinates, he received the final results of Xin Defu's private operation in Takehara Minami Private Academy.
[Xin Defu was killed by Captain Dragonfly at Takehara Minami Private Academy in New Tokyo. The witnesses were the principal and three students from Kyoto Private Academy.]
[One of the students is said to have been intentionally injured by Cinder Flandre and is currently receiving treatment at New Tokyo First Hospital. The school reserves the right to pursue liability and requires the Adjudication Division to give a reasonable explanation as soon as possible. ]
Reasonable explanation?
Gaius Rhine chuckled and shook his head.
He looked at the judge who was reporting the news respectfully not far away, and said in a slightly sarcastic tone, "Our congressman and judge died on this land, in the hands of some inexplicable person, and they are still with us today.
Zhiguo hasn’t come up with a reasonable explanation yet, and now he’s asking me for an explanation?”
The inquisitor responsible for reporting the news was named Joan, a woman wearing glasses. After hearing Gaius's soliloquy, she lowered her head respectfully and said, "Perhaps you are too gentle, and these humble humans have forgotten
What is awe?"
Upon hearing this, Gaius Rhine raised his head and glanced at Qiong, and asked calmly, "Captain Dragonfly will suddenly appear there tonight. What do you think?"
Judge Qiong felt slightly happy.
Although she is also a subordinate of the Seventh Adjudicator Gaius Rhine, but usually when the strong and shrewd woman Xind Fu is around, she rarely has the opportunity to talk to Gaius Rhine in person, let alone
He said that he was discussing something like this.
Judge Qiong quickly calmed down and recalled tonight's events in his mind. He emphasized the emphasis on the first half of the sentence, "Miss Fu is acting privately tonight. Even we don't know about it. Our target will appear at the right time."
Being there can only mean one thing - I'm afraid we've been targeted by the other side since we set foot on this land."
This is the most common sense judgment.
But after Gaius Rhine nodded slightly, he suddenly said, "Last time the Sky Fox Bart family sent that bastard from the West to Wano, he was captured by a fox-faced man, Captain Dragonfly who changed his mask.
Behead."
Having said this, he paused and continued, "If I remember correctly, I should have been in a private academy called Takehara Minami at that time, right?"
"What do you mean?" Inquisitor Joan raised his head carefully and glanced at Gaius Rhine, trying to figure out the meaning of the other person's words.
Gaius Rhine smiled and said in a leisurely tone, "There may be some kind of inevitability behind a thing happening twice by chance. Is it possible that there is something worthy of dragonfly in the private academy named Takehara Minami?"
Is there someone or something that the captain cares about, so that’s why he appears there twice?”
Judge Qiong was stunned for a few seconds, with an incredible look on his face, "You mean he might be a student of Takehara Minami Private Academy?"
Gaius Rhine glanced at her indifferently, shook his head, and asked with some disappointment in his tone, "Where is Takehara Minami Private Academy?"
"It should be a high school in Wano." Judge Qiong carefully answered.
"It seems you know this too."
Gaius Rhine asked coldly, "So do you think that a high-risk terrorist who controls an unlimited field and can even kill eighth-level terrorists will be a high school student whose average age is under eighteen years old and whose ability is below the third level?"
born?"
Hearing Gaius Rhine's words, Judge Joan's expression suddenly changed, and he realized that he had made a huge mistake - how could such a strong man be a high school student under the age of 18?
For thousands of years, even those heavenly beings with unique congenital conditions who have reached the level of seventh-level absolute ability users have never been younger than twenty years old, let alone those humble humans with insufficient congenital conditions.
"I have never been afraid of bold assumptions, but any assumption must be based on reality, otherwise it will only take you further away from the truth."
Gaius Rhine gently crossed his hands on the desk in front of him, "There is only one situation that can be assumed at present, and that is that there may be someone worthy of our goal in the private academy named Takehara Minami.
Things you care about.”
"Do we need to report to the superiors?" Judge Qiong asked carefully.
Gaius Rhine shook his head gently, "Since it is a hypothesis, of course it must be verified first. I came to Wano to solve the problem, not just to provide specious news to fool the higher authorities."
"Then how are you going to seek proof? My subordinates will definitely help you." Judge Qiong quickly bent down and said.
Gaius Rhine narrowed his eyes slightly, remembering the news he just saw, and the corners of his lips couldn't help but curl up with a smile, "Isn't it that Takehara Minami Private Academy in Kyoto and New Tokyo is planning to hold an exchange meeting under the Sky Tree at the end of the month?
Is that so? I will also go to the site to attend the appointment that day. If the students of Takehara Minami are in danger during the exchange meeting, do you think that Captain Dragonfly will appear again?"
Encountering danger again?
Hearing Gaius Rhine's words, Judge Joan couldn't help but be slightly startled, and then quickly figured out the intention of the other party's words, and immediately took a deep breath and said urgently:
"Please leave this matter to me!"
"No, I didn't tell you anything." Gaius Rhine suddenly chuckled and shook his head.
In the room, Judge Qiong was stunned for a moment but then immediately reacted and quickly changed his words, "I don't know anything, but I will not let you down!"
Gaius Rhine's face gradually showed a satisfied smile.
He began to understand a little bit why the behemoths of the Jingjiu people always like to hide in the dark and why the old man in the black building of the Adjudication Department has not personally taken action for decades.
This feeling of holding the pieces and controlling everything invisibly is so wonderful that it makes people feel like a creator in a trance.
It's a pity that he is just a pawn of those big shots now.
But who is willing to be a chess piece for the rest of his life?
Tsk. Is it a strange demon that the Nine Families and the old man from the Adjudication Department keep secret?
Gaius Rhine recalled in his mind the strange demon [Boundary] that the Bart family had discovered under the Sky Tree in the past two days, and his hellish vertical pupils couldn't help but narrow slightly.
