Age of Arcane

Chapter 193 Diplomatic Incident
This is the first time Luke and Clear Sky have met in public.Afraid of showing any flaws, Luke asked Clear Sky to find an excuse to leave.

Instead, Mrs. Mihir was a little embarrassed: "I'm sorry, Inspector...Miss Qingkong has such a personality. She prefers to spend her time in the laboratory, and so does my husband. Probably scientific researchers don't like socializing. "

Of course Luke wouldn't argue with himself, he pulled the seat to let Yin sit down, and sat next to Yin himself.And adjusted the brightness of a desk lamp at hand to make the light in the room darker.

"Miss Qingkong is the hero of Raging Waves City, and the city will rely on her to protect it from now on. I have only respect for Miss Qingkong." Luke turned to Pan and said, "It's really beyond me to meet Director Pan here. Unexpectedly. According to Mrs. Mihir, you and Yin are still members of the royal family of the former Kingdom of Leo.

If I recall correctly, Madame Mihir's mother was also from the Kingdom of Leo. "

Yin Yin seemed very restrained after entering, she didn't dare to look directly at Pan, like a child who has made a mistake.

She didn't feel that Pan was here just now, which meant that the telepathy between their brothers and sisters was interrupted again, and she knew that Pan must have noticed it too.

Yin didn't know why this happened twice in a row, and... both were when Inspector Meteor was by his side.At this time, Yin's heart was very chaotic, and the more chaotic, the more unable to establish a spiritual connection with Pan, which made her at a loss.

Pan took a meaningful look at Yin, and then replied to Luke nonchalantly: "That was a long time ago, and Yin and I are now Shuojin people, and we no longer have any relationship with the Leo Kingdom. But when we met Li I can still feel a sense of intimacy with the people of the Austrian Kingdom, so I specially asked Miss Qingkong to introduce me to Mrs. Mihir."

Mihir said to Luke: "Just now Director Pan and I were talking about the Leo nobles who came to the empire in exile. After so long, many of them have spent their savings and lived very poorly. Director Pan has The idea of ​​helping them, but because it is inconvenient to show up as a Shuojin person, I want to entrust me to give them some funding..."

Mrs. Mihir is not so easy to fool, she is well aware of what these exiled Leo nobles mean to the empire.She may not know Pan's true purpose, but she knows that there must be risks in helping the Leo nobles.

Just when Luke came, she kicked the ball over.

Inspector Meteor is a close friend of the eldest princess, and his meaning can represent the meaning of the eldest princess.

Pan also waited for Luke's answer.

Luke didn't reply immediately, but asked the voice beside him: "You used to be a member of the royal family of King Leo, do you want to help those nobles of Leo?"

"Ah!" Yin, who was in a mess, didn't expect Inspector Meteor to ask herself such a question suddenly, and she replied in a little panic: "This... Pan and I left the Kingdom of Leo when we were very young, and we didn't even talk to our parents. My impression. The Shuojin people’s education is to sever ties with their previous life experience and help the nobles of Leo... I, I listen to Pan."

After listening to Yin's answer, Luke knew that Pan had absolute dominance over the twins.

He said to Pan with a business-like attitude: "The Leo nobles who came to the empire in exile receive special treatment from the empire due to their special status, and any changes may trigger diplomatic disputes between the empire and the Republic of Leo.

It's a good thing that Director Pan wants to help them... I will support you.

However, any of your funding must be carried out under the supervision of the Secret Affairs Bureau of Raging Waves City.If there is any problem, we have the right to unilaterally terminate this bailout program. "

Pan said happily: "Yes, this is a simple rescue. Give them some money, help them find a suitable job, and do what I can to help people."

Luke took the opportunity to say: "Since Director Pan likes to help people so much, I want to build an orphanage in Haijiao District. Are you interested..."

When Luke and Pantan rescued Leo's nobles in exile, Qingkong took Jenny to the reception venue.She intends to stay here for a while before returning to Oulu Academy, which can be regarded as fulfilling Mrs. Mihir's request.

As a result, I met an acquaintance.

Caesar had healed from the injuries he suffered when he was captured by the Abyss Mage.As the director of the Central District Public Security Department who was single-handedly picked up by Mrs. Mihir, he was also invited to this reception.

At this time, Nishizawa was wearing a proper uniform of the Director of Public Security and a sheriff's hat, giving him a more majestic sense than before.

Nishizawa, who came to the reception, heard that Miss Qingkong was also here, so he kept looking for her.So when he saw the clear sky, he immediately went up to it.

"Miss Qingkong, hello..." Caesar still had the same expression when he saw Qingkong for the first time, as if a simple boy saw the goddess who was thinking about day and night, and he did not look like a senior official of Raging Waves City: "I have always wanted to face her in person. You express gratitude, but you can't always find the right opportunity.

Thank you, you saved my life again. "

For Qingkong, this is the trouble that he has always wanted to avoid.Caesar had gone to Oulu College to find him many times, but he was rejected by him for various reasons.

Unexpectedly, he was still stuck here.

"Hello, Director Nishizawa. I didn't intend to save you, but I took the Oulu battle mage to destroy the abyss mage, and you happened to be there."

The more Qingkong understates, the more Caesar shows his gratitude.

"I know that Miss Qingkong doesn't want to put too much pressure on me. When those abyss mages wanted to kill me, they didn't do it because they heard that you were looking for me all over the city.

You don't know how happy I was when I heard this news. I just wanted to die quickly and prevent the abyss mage from using me to set a trap against you. "

Looking at Nishizawa's obsessed face, Qingkong knew that if he didn't solve it, troubles would still follow.

"Cesis, I think you must have misunderstood me. I saved you, but it doesn't mean that I have too much affection for you. I just think that you are not bad, and it's a pity to die.

I'm an elf, and I want to save my best time for studying and researching.And when I think I can suspend my studies, you...may not be in this world anymore.

You are a human being, and a hundred years is your limit. "

Qingkong persuaded Caesar very tactfully, she felt that the racial gap could make Caesar sober, but she underestimated "dog licking".

"Miss Sunny Sky, you misunderstood. I admit that I have feelings for you, but I don't have any extravagant thoughts. To me, you are a flawless woman who can only look at you and talk to you , I am very satisfied.

I never expected to be in your favour. "

Caesar's answer made Qingkong frown, and Jenferni, who was following behind Qingkong, covered her mouth and snickered.

"Cesis, you embarrass me very much." Qingkong said helplessly: "If possible, I really want to delay the time until I see you, and then leave from another direction."

Caesar immediately realized how abrupt what he just said was.

"I'm sorry, Miss Sunny Sky. I made a slip of the tongue. I just said what was in my heart and didn't mean to offend you."

Qing Kong said: "Okay, it's up to you... can we go now?"

Caesar immediately stepped out of the way.

At this time, a security officer rushed in from the outside, and he whispered to Caesar: "Master Director, the Consulate of the Leo Republic has been attacked."

"What!" Nishizawa hurriedly asked, "Who did it?"

"It's still unclear. The attackers used secret techniques to pull the entire Leo Consulate into the fog. The security officers we supported in the past couldn't get into the fog at all, and we didn't know what danger the people inside were in."

Caesar did not expect that he would encounter such a difficult case.

The relationship between the Empire and the Leo Republic is very delicate now, and the attack on the Leo Republic's consulate in Raging Waves City will inevitably lead to nasty disputes between the two countries.

How to deal with it?

When Nishizawa panicked, Qing Kong said: "I just saw Detective Meteor and Mrs. Mihir together. The attack on the Leo Consulate should be reported to the director of the Secret Intelligence Bureau."

"Detective Meteor is here... that's great!" Nishizawa bowed to Qingkong, "I'm sorry, Miss Qingkong, I'll deal with this incident first. I'm very glad to see you."

Caesar ran to find Meteor, and Qingkong took Jenny to leave the reception.

On the way back, Jenny asked, "Professor Qingkong, can we help?"

Clear Sky opens the portal to Oulu Academy on the deserted street.

"When I need help, someone will come to me. Go back to the academy, another big event has happened in Rage City."

Qingkong walked into the portal, followed by Jenny, and the door disappeared with a swish.

Luke and Pan talked very happily. In order to support the exiled Leo nobles, Pan agreed to the additional terms very simply.It means "I am a fat sheep" and slaughtered casually.

And when Luke learned about the attack on Leo's consulate in Raging City through the clear sky, he suddenly realized that he was being tricked.

Caesar, who broke in, officially informed everyone in the room of this information, and the harmonious atmosphere just now became gloomy in an instant.

Leo's consulate in Raging Waves City was never attacked earlier or later, but it happened to be attacked at this time.Said that it had nothing to do with Pan, even if he killed Luke, he would not believe it.

"It seems that we have to temporarily put aside the rescue of the exiled nobles in Leo. The attack on the Leo consulate is a serious diplomatic incident. We can no longer provoke the Leo Republic on this matter."

Pan showed concern and frustration.

"Yes, that's a pity! Don't worry, I won't make things difficult for you, the Inspector. You go and deal with the attack and hope no one is hurt."

"Farewell!"

Luke had no evidence and couldn't do anything to Pan, who was a Shuojin man, so he got up and took Caesar away.

Yin looked at Luke's leaving back, and said worriedly: "The inspector will not be in danger, will he?"

Pan replied meaningfully: "This world is full of dangers."

When Luke and Caesar rushed to Leo's consulate in Raging City, the sheriff who came to support them had already sealed off the entire block.

The entire consulate area was shrouded in thick gray fog, and nothing could be seen from the outside.

Nishizawa found the sheriff captain who arrived first, and asked him about the attack.

The attack happened at nine o'clock in the evening.

Sheriffs patrolling nearby spotted the fog.

The captain of the sheriff looked at the nearby fog and said with lingering fear: "After I arrived, I led people into the fog, but no matter how we walked, we couldn't find the Leo Consulate, it seemed to disappear inside.

And after entering, we felt a rapid decline in physical strength.Two brothers fell inside, we couldn't get them out, we don't know if they are alive or dead. "

Caesar said anxiously: "The people trapped inside must be rescued... I will take them in!"

Seeing that the director was about to enter the fog himself, the chief of security immediately stopped him: "Director, this fog is too weird. If you fall to the ground from exhaustion, no one can pull you up. We must first find a way to break through this fog, maybe the city The Alchemist Association has a solution."

Caesar is very clear about his current position, he said: "The City Alchemist Association will not help, we can ask Oulu Academy for help.

This kind of mystical fog must be a small problem for Miss Weathering Sky.

Send someone to Oulu Academy..."

Without waiting for Caesar's order to invite Qingkong, Luke stopped him and said, "If you need to ask Oulu Academy for help in everything, what do we need to do from the Public Security Bureau and Secret Intelligence Bureau.

I know this secret technique.

If people who enter the secret art area do not follow the correct path, they will have no way to pass through the foggy area.He also fell to the ground due to the rapid loss of physical strength. "

Caesar asked: "Inspector, can you break through this fog?"

"It can be broken, but... not now."

Caesar didn't expect that Luke had a way to break the secret technique but didn't use it.

"Inspector, there are not only our sheriffs in the fog, but also the diplomats of the Leo Republic. If we don't rescue them in time, it will cause serious diplomatic disturbances."

Luke looked at the fog in front of him, as if answering or talking to himself: "The sheriff who fell to the ground just lost his strength and will not die immediately. As for Leo's diplomats...we may kill them if we charge faster.

The other party has the ability to release the 'Burden Branch' to envelop the Leo Consulate inside, and there is an easier way to kill people.Let's wait, someone will come out and take responsibility for this. "

"Detective... What if no one declares responsibility for this matter? If we rescue a little later, the people inside will be in more danger."

Luke saw Caesar still looking like he wanted to rush in, and said to him: "No one is responsible for this matter, I will be responsible for this matter! I think Viscount Escoran will arrive soon, and he will As City Security Officer, I will give you a waiting order."

After all, the Bureau of Secret Intelligence and the Department of Public Security are not the same department. Luke can't command the sheriffs, but he can command the Viscount Iscoran.

Hearing that Luke moved out of Iscoran, Caesar reluctantly gave up his idea of ​​going in to save people immediately.

Luke returned his attention to the fog in front of him, thinking about what Pan wanted to do?
Viscount Iskran arrived soon.

At Luke's request, the sheriff surrounded the entire fog area and no one was allowed to enter.

Shelley also brought a large number of imperial spies from the Cape District for support.
