Alien landlady

Chapter 201
Bai Tongtong got enough sleep and woke up in the morning of the next day, a bit later than her usual time of waking up. She went to the bathroom to take a shower, changed into clean clothes, and when she came to the kitchen to look for food, the cooks were already making lunch. Prepare, Bernard's voice came from the intercom on the wall from time to time, asking for a clean tea set or replenishing new snacks, listening to the noise in the background, it seems that there are many guests.

"Why do I hear that there are no guests in the guild these days when I'm not here?" Bai Tongtong sat at the long cooking table and made a simple breakfast for himself. He put cheese on the slices of bread layer by layer, and spread sausages and vegetables. , put it in the oven, and make a few slices of toasted pizza.

"The guild is very deserted these days when you're not here, and we've been much more relaxed with you. As soon as you came back yesterday, there will be more guests today." Abel sat in the kitchen and instructed his girls to take what Bernard wanted. Send out everything.

"Master An Meng went home to escape the summer heat?"

"Well. After you left for a few days, the weather became hotter every day, especially after it rained. Master Anmeng couldn't bear this kind of climate at his age, so he invited old friends to go to escape the summer heat and said yes Wait for the weather to be cold before coming back for the winter.”

"I'm so happy. I also want to find a cool place to spend the summer before coming back."

"Don't forget to work when you are on vacation. You have been away for so many days, and there are many things waiting for you to deal with when you come back."

"Don't say it, don't say it, don't spoil my good mood right now, I'll talk about heavy work after I'm full." Bai Tongtong turned on the stove and took out a delicious simple pizza, and a big pot of freshly squeezed juice, beautiful.

Bai Tongtong hid in the kitchen after breakfast, returned to the second floor from the stairs in the living area and went to her office through the corridor. She didn't go through the guild hall. She had a lot of things to do and didn't want to spend time chatting with others. superior.

I heard from Abel that Ah Huang and Black Eagle went to the forest early in the morning and did not see them come back. The horse was tied in the stable, and he took it for a walk in the morning, and the runestone wrapped in rainbow molten stone They were all placed on the terrace outside the office overnight, looking like dangerous goods, and the servants did not dare to touch them.

Bai Tongtong squatted on the terrace, took out more magic crystals to make container runestones, and kept each of the rainbow molten stones separately. In addition to leaving one black molten stone to hand in the task, she kept another seven The temperature is not so high, which is suitable for her current ability. She is not greedy at all, and sells all the ones that are not needed.

"Gah!" the black eagle croaked, flapping its wings and landing on the fence of the terrace.

With a whoosh, Ah Huang came along the wall and also sat on the fence, separated by an arm's distance from the black eagle, and no one could hit anyone.

Under the watchful eyes of the two animals, Bai Tongtong concentrated on finishing the work at hand, and then carefully moved to the far corner of the terrace to avoid accidents when the maid came to clean up.

Ah Huang licked his nose, and a curved wall suddenly protruded from the corner of the terrace, enclosing so many runestones together, even if someone really stumbled and fell, they would not fall on the flames.

Grabbing Ah Huang's ears appreciatively, Bai Tongtong walked up to the black eagle. It tilted its head and opened its big round black eyes, hiding the ferocious posture of the raptor, leaving only the naive, cute and well-behaved, cute and cute. Ah Huang has a fight.

Bai Tongtong looked at this bird of prey that was so black that there was not a single hair on it and could blend in with the shadows standing in the dark, and carefully touched its sharp, hooked beak, "Hey, since you want to stay so sincerely, Now, let me give you a name."

The black eagle flapped its wings, "Gah!"

Don't know if it agrees or disagrees.

Bai Tongtong only thought it had a different opinion, pinching its beak with three fingers, "Protesting is useless, I will give you a good name, there just happens to be a mythical and legendary name that suits you, 踆乌. That's it."

"Gah?" Bai Tongtong understood the doubt in Hei Ying's muffled voice.

"The crow means the three-legged bird in the sun. Although you only have two legs, it doesn't matter. Small flaws don't affect the whole. The temperature of black molten stone is like the surface temperature of the sun. In the face of that high temperature, all substances It can only exist in a gaseous state, and I have not been directly killed by you again and again, which means that we are destined." Bai Tongtong let go of his hand, and then tapped Black Eagle's forehead, "You are the incarnation of the sun."

"Gah!" Black Eagle flapped its wings excitedly, and a heat wave from nowhere suddenly enveloped its head. Bai Tongtong felt as if he was standing in front of a steelmaking furnace without an air-conditioning system, and the sweat pores all over his body exploded. Sweating, the chest and back were immediately wet with sweat, and even the palms became sweaty.

"Okay, say you are the incarnation of the sun, you don't need to let me experience the close contact with the sun again immediately, I haven't lived enough, I don't want to die so creatively." Bai Tongtong wiped the sweat from his forehead with his left hand , and pinched the black eagle's beak again with his right hand, "If you mess up again, I'll sell you to the North Pole and lock you in the fireplace to use as firewood."

The black eagle tilted its head, restrained it from flapping its wings, and the sudden heat wave dissipated after a while, leaving no trace of its existence except that it made Bai Tongtong sweat profusely.

"Too hot is really a killer move." Bai Tongtong went back to the room to drink water with dry mouth, held the teapot in both hands, and drank like this towards the spout, poured most of the pot in one breath, and then hiccupped.

Hei Ying, who got a new name, proudly flew into the office with Bai Tongtong, circled around and squatted down on the top of the bookcase, while Ah Huang jumped onto the sofa, sleeping on it without dislike the heat at all.

Bai Tongtong looked at the unfinished work that had accumulated for more than half a month, closed his eyes and wanted to tell himself that none of these things existed, but in the end he pulled himself together and browsed and read one by one, muttering in his heart that he must find an assistant for himself as soon as possible Or secretary.

After reading a few documents, Bai Tongtong squirmed like a nail on a chair and couldn't sit still. He felt hot no matter what, couldn't calm down, and his palms sweated after writing a few words. Make a complete palm print.

Throwing down the documents that he didn't want to read, Bai Tongtong put his legs on the table, half-closed his eyes, indulged himself in lazily thinking, and suddenly jumped off the ground and circled, "Ah! You're so stupid! How could I forget the black leaf vine?" Already!"

[I'm so glad you still have that thing. 】Ah Huang woke up shaking his ears,【I thought you sold it behind my back. 】

"It took a lot of hard work to get it, and it is unforgivable to sell it casually."

[The real situation is that you have forgotten so long casually. 】Ah Huang lazily watched Bai Tongtong throw a large bundle of tangled black-leaf vines on the floor, and the surface of the vines was cool to the touch.

"It's not that I forgot, it's because I can't find a good craftsman." Bai Tongtong tried to separate the canes one by one, and wanted to measure the average length of the canes, but he stopped when he found that one person couldn't do it.

[Actually, I just forgot. 】Ah Huang is merciless.

"Shut up, or you won't have your share." Bai Tongtong put the cane back into the ring, went down the stairs in the living area, and threw it to her servants to find a way, then wandered around the bathroom to study how to change the water pipe route , installing a new hot tub, using rainbow molten stone to keep the water temperature in the hot tub, extending through new pipes to the left and right men's and women's bathrooms, just in time to convert the existing single soup bathroom into a shower with dual hot and cold water pipes and double bathroom with soup bath.

After making up her mind, Bai Tongtong went back upstairs to explain her accountant's budget, and held a small meeting by the way to learn about the situation in Wismar during this period.

Bai Tongtong still didn't show up in front of her colleagues during lunch. The long restaurant was divided into two parts by a screen, and there were two dining areas for guests and personal use. Bai Tongtong, who didn't have time to sit down and enjoy the meal, could only It is to get yourself something like fast food, fill your stomach and go back to the office to continue working.

Because he was thinking about the information he bought from Pollock, Bai Tongtong drove Ah Huang to Barn to guard him, but he didn't receive the note until it was dark, until Bai Tongtong finished his day's work and sat in front of the antique writing desk in the bedroom to mend the paper. When I was writing my diary, I saw Harding mysteriously appearing outside the window.

As soon as Harding appeared, Ah Huang and He Wu who had been dozing lazily woke up immediately. The black eagle flew over Harding's head and stood there. , taken by Harding to fly to the forest to meet Pollock.

After dealing with this dead profiteer for so long, Bai Tongtong has somewhat grasped some rules. Things that can be explained clearly in a letter have to be played mysteriously and interviewed. It is also best to pay attention to the meaning, otherwise it will not look good if the boat capsizes in the gutter.

Harding took Bai Tongtong to the idle camp in the forest that was snatched from the mafia.

Pollock was still waiting for Bai Tongtong in the playground inside. A small bonfire was burning not far from his feet. Against the backdrop of the firelight and shadows, it was hard to tell whether he was in a good mood or a bad mood.

When Bai Tongtong was put down by Harding, there was a flash of light on the ground, Ah Huang got out from the ground, shook his head triumphantly at Harding, and roared softly.

Harding turned around and rushed towards Ah Huang, and the two mammals immediately bit each other. The black eagle squatting on the small tree next to it was about to move and screamed loudly.

Bai Tongtong didn't even bother to say hello to Pollock, and first tried to call the black eagle to his side, "Crows, come here, don't fight with them."

Hearing Bai Tongtong calling it, the black eagle immediately flew to her shoulder and rubbed her face affectionately.

"I haven't seen it for a day, and the name is already decided. What do you call it? The pronunciation is so strange?"

"踆~wu~"

"It's not like our widely spoken language, a special dialect of a closed area?"

"I don't remember if the dialect is not dialect. Anyway, it is the name of a bird in ancient mythology, which represents the meaning of the sun, and it is very suitable for its attributes." Bai Tongtong touched the head of Black Eagle, and raised a stone bench directly from the ground, and Bo Locke sat down facing each other.

"If you don't explain it this way, I will just take it as the scientific name of this bird. Those ornithologists are eager to make the name as weird as possible."

"Magic terminology is still a new foreign language, and proper nouns are also awkward. Don't dislike anyone in this regard."

"Okay, let's not talk about this, I didn't come here tonight to discuss natural science."

"What? The truth behind the matter is not good?" Pollock got into the topic so quickly, Bai Tongtong raised his heart.

"It was an acquaintance who betrayed the news, instructing others to injure the maid while the maid was taking the child for a walk and take the child away, and resell it to those Singato people. At the moment of transmission yesterday, they saw Ah Huang rushing towards them. I was scared, and I went out without taking a break as soon as the transmission was over, I didn't expect you to go so fast, and you caught them all back in one fell swoop."

"Well, the interval between the two transmissions was very short, and they were caught before they even went out of the garden. Who had a grudge against the Galti family and deliberately ordered others to kidnap and sell their youngest son? This clue that turned a corner, for sure You found it, didn't you? The Sheriff at Fort Chemington didn't move so fast."

"It took a lot of effort. The group who snatched the child broke up after selling the child. Some lived in the city to get paid to enjoy life, and some knew that something was wrong and went out of the city to escape. I had to use some connections to help Searching for a day and a night, I found several wrong people, but finally found the leader outside the city. The whole operation of robbing the child was planned by that person, he bought the dagger, and the helper was found at street cost. The gangsters on the street don’t know each other, so they only took the code name for addressing, and those gangsters said that he doesn’t look like a person who hangs out on the street.”

"Balbo also works for others. What enemies can they provoke? Business competitors?"

"It has nothing to do with business, it's just a personal grievance against their family."

"So you've tracked it down?"

"That couple, you're a friend on the wife's side, right?"

"Well, I knew Seiya first, and I escorted her all the way to Fort Zammington to meet her fiancé." Bai Tongtong recalled the scene when she first saw Seiya in her mind, and suddenly raised her head, "Instigate the kidnapping Is the child's acquaintance on Saiyan's side? And maybe I know him?"

"You don't have a good relationship with that acquaintance." Pollock shrugged. "Actually, you already have the answer in your heart."

Bai Tongtong stood up awkwardly, rubbing his face with unbelievable force, trying to wake himself up.

"Among Seiya's close acquaintances, I don't have a good relationship... Oh my god! Could it be her former personal maid Fern? Didn't she go to jail for stealing Balbo's confidential documents before the wedding? "

"Well, the sentence was commuted for a good performance. The land where the prison is located is also the territory of a viscount. The master is also the warden. He issued an amnesty decree on the occasion of the birth of his little grandson, exposing petty criminals like her to Prisoners who were about to complete their sentences were released in one go.”

"How long has she been out? She was dishonest and committed crimes when she first came out? Is kidnapping and trafficking other people's children the same nature as stealing business intelligence?"

"About a month, just before you were about to go to Singato. Of course, it is a felony to rob other people's children and sell them. If you dare to do this after a few years in prison, it is obvious that something unimaginable has happened to her."

"Then where is she now? Have you caught her?"

"No. She's not at Fort Zammington. Besides, I'm only in charge of scouting information, not arresting people."

"What about the Galty family? Do they know that Fern, who has just been released from prison, is behind this?"

"No, the sheriff is still looking for the gangsters involved in the crime all over the city, and it's a long time before she is found."

Bai Tongtong scratched her hair impatiently, and walked around the campfire several times.

"That is to say, you have investigated the ins and outs of the whole thing, but you did nothing?"

"Hey, let's be clear. If you want to make trouble without reason, I will not accompany you." Pollock was busy with work all day, and had to be distracted by arranging people to investigate this matter. After a tiring day, he had no energy to deal with the quarrel.

　The wind and rain outside the window, the indoor chill is threatening, sitting at the desk and typing with cold hands and feet, so I got under the bed~~~~ I turned on the electric blanket, and the bed was comfortable~~ So I fell asleep~~ So I took a nap Ah~~~ Then I overslept! ! !Just woke up! ! !There is only a pack of dried noodles and a few slices of bread left at home~~~ Looking at the rain outside, I don’t want to go out~~~ I’m starving to death~~~ The barbecue stalls are not open~~ There are still Throwing a few boxes of unopened curry, someone will send me an order~~
