Don't confiscate my citizenship

Chapter 879 Lan Qi’s Lover’s Tribulation

Half of February, the day of Valentine's Day in the Southern Continent.

7:15 am.

"Speaking of which, today is obviously the day when Priest Valentine was executed. Why are all the lovers celebrating today? Aren't lovers afraid of being executed?"

The girl with light blue hair was sitting in the outdoor cafe on the corner of the street, writing on a notepad, and asked her long-standing doubts.

The little reporter had a magic burning camera hanging around her neck and two work badges on her chest. She was sipping hot coffee as if she was on vacation.

In addition to being the secretary of the student union, Louvihill is also a reporter for the Hutton Times.

"Senior, aren't there a lot of bouquets in the trash cans every Valentine's Day? Isn't this equivalent to being executed?"

The crimson-haired Kukulka sat next to Luvihir and asked seriously.

After she transferred from the academic visiting team of Aloran Royal College to Icerite College, she began to practice with Senior Sister Luvihill. Now she has also joined the student union with scarce manpower and became the new officer.

Her brother Kusai is the eldest son of Count Pacas, a nobleman of the Aloran Kingdom. He was also the most powerful fighter in the third grade of Aloran Royal Academy. He suffered an unfortunate accident when he came to Icerite the year before. .

Until now, Kusai is hiding at home and dare not go out. Not to mention fighting, he will be frightened even by the servants at home, fearing that someone will beat him.

Who was behind the accident, and who was the referee in that competitive match? There was no doubt that it was Loren, the dean of the Sage Academy.

Although she thinks her brother deserves it, she personally still feels that this man Loren...

If he was really a good old man as his classmates said, he wouldn't have been able to take the position of emperor so easily, and everything seemed to have been carefully planned to be just right.

"That's right, he won't be executed on the guillotine like the ancient emperor Lan Yiliu of Posen."

Luvihir muttered to himself.

From time to time, she would naturally look towards the pedestrian square in the distance through her movements while sipping her coffee.

I saw a slightly uneasy young man standing next to a circular wooden seat under a big tree in the distance on the pedestrian street -

A legendary emperor, Loren.

I don’t know who is on the line today.

Come on, Loren, who we have high hopes for.

"Kukulka, I taught you last time that the essence of a reporter is not much different from that of a detective. When we are tracking the eighth-level powerhouses, we cannot focus on them, otherwise they will be easily discovered. We can only appear at the right time. In a business district not too far away, people will hide, do their own thing, and wait for luck to record.”

Luvihir turned his head and spoke to the school girl sitting next to him.

"What about tracking the ninth-level powerhouse?"

Kukulka asked.

She was imposing and her deep red eyes were full of coldness, as if she could see into people's hearts.

In addition to retaining the black and white intertwined family crest on the school uniform, the conspicuous inverted cross holy hair ornament composed of a red ribbon and gold metal lining on the head -

She is also a priest who believes in the Church of the Goddess of Destiny, so she has a very complicated view of Loren.

She used to respect Loren as a great priest, but later she felt that Loren was a sanctimonious villain because of her brother's affairs. Then Loren did indeed end the war in Creja, and she couldn't understand Loren anymore.

"This is beyond my experience. This is also my first time tracking a ninth-level powerhouse. Even though this is a restricted urban area, Dean Loren is a good and law-abiding citizen. He will not activate spells casually. We We also need to keep a greater distance from him to prevent him from noticing his gaze. Also, don’t make it too coincidental. Let’s just treat it as an outing today. Whether we meet him or not is just a matter of chance.”

Luvihir instructed Kukulka.

If you bump into someone, you will make a profit, but if you don't, you will not lose money.

In order to find out the relevant information about Dean Loren, Luvihir has been working hard to help handle the affairs of the student union these days. He went to President Monaster and Frey to persuade them, and asked everyone around him. Unexpectedly, the information was finally obtained from Miss Antanas, a colleague in another department of Hutton Times Broadcasting Company.

"Senior, I remember."

Kukulka nodded, his eyes full of solemnity as he lowered his head.

"It's a pity that boy Frey won't help me this time. He might as well not come back! Otherwise, I don't have to investigate this kind of thing personally. I can directly entrust him to get all the information."

Luvihir could see that Kukulka was very uneasy about following her out to secretly dig up news today, so he changed the subject and complained.

That cute junior has not listened to her since he came back.

In the past, he had basically no shortcomings except that he was expensive, but now he couldn't buy information with money, and it was as if he really knew the entire itinerary of Emperor Loren.

"Did Frei-san come back?"

Kukulka was no stranger to this name. Before she came to Icerita College, she had heard about the deeds of the student union of this school, and Senior Sister Luvihill and President Monast also mentioned it all the time. he.

For example, if the president of the student union asks Frei to do community service, he can basically complete it quickly and for free.

As for matters other than the student union, you can also hire Frey. As long as the money is available, he can basically handle it.

"He has disappeared even after he came back. Unless you use communication magic to contact him, it will be difficult to find him."

Luvihir closed his eyes and spread his hands.

This guy acts like he has a passive, being able to disappear off the map and become unselectable.

"But even if Frey is unwilling to sell Loren's itinerary information, I can roughly infer that there is a high probability that Dean Loren will go to see the performance of "Holy War Romance - Half Witch" this afternoon. After all, this is a perfect show. But a date venue.”

Luvihir proudly took out two tickets from his arms.

"Hey, senior, where did you buy the ticket?"

Kukulka looked at the two translucent regular tickets for the Icerite Academy Theater in Luvihir's hand in surprise.

She had heard about the show but couldn't get a ticket.

"Please, the starring roles are my lovely junior schoolmate and Junior Brother Lan, ah, Principal Lan, my great Principal Lan Qiangu, it's easy to find them to get tickets reserved in advance."

Luvihir preached to Kukulka.

Kukulka came to the Student Union to take over the office work of Hyperion, Lanqi and others. Later, after Lanqi came back, he didn’t go to the Student Union much. It seemed that he was mainly responsible for the affairs of the Sage Academy entrusted by Professor Borao. , so he almost never met Kukulka from the Alchemy Institute.

"So today, it feels like we just came out to have fun?"

Kukulka was originally called out by her senior sister and was ready to work all day. Now it seems that she can have fun today regardless of whether her work is successful or not.

"That's true. Anyway, the highlight is definitely the opera in the afternoon. Let's just wander around in the morning."

Luvihir handed one to Kukulka, patted the junior **** the shoulder and preached.

There are two performances this weekend, both with the same content, and will be performed today, Saturday, and tomorrow, Sunday respectively.

She got the ticket for today's first game.

Generally speaking, first day tickets are more popular, plus today is Valentine's Day.

After the first day's performance, the evaluation of that day's performance is likely to affect the ticket price on the second day. If the performance on the first day is a failure, the ticket price will plummet on the second day, and if the performance on the first day The performance was particularly successful, and ticket prices for the next day were even higher.

"Thank you, senior sister. I will definitely work hard when I need to work."

Kukulka said gratefully.

"But don't have too much hope that you can dig out some exciting information today. The emperor must be watching from a private box upstairs. The probability of us being able to photograph him is very small. There must be many media colleagues present. Keep an eye on the stage, unless there is a major performance accident that seriously affects the emperor, it is possible to capture some big news. "

Luvihill analyzed,

"Anyway, let's just watch the drama with peace of mind today. Don't have too many fantasies. It should be a performance worth looking forward to."

She didn't know why Frey bought all the tickets for the next day.

This wave of investment may be all in vain.

Is he so sure that the show will be a success?

Luvihir didn't understand.

Frey also has the duality of gods and ghosts. Sometimes he will win big, and sometimes he will lose everything.

"Hey, it seems like someone is coming."

Kukulka seemed to notice the figure appearing at another corner at the far end of the pedestrian street.

She immediately reminded Luvihir to snap out of his thoughts.

They both picked up their coffee and looked into the distance as if they were looking at the scenery.

The end of the pedestrian street.

Under the big tree.

Loren is slightly disguised today. Unless you are someone who is familiar with Loren, it would be difficult to recognize him.

He actually looked very aristocratic, with the hair in front of his forehead being meticulously combed back.

It feels completely different than usual.

Although his face was still gentle, it had the aura of an aristocratic son-in-law and a domineering president. I don’t know which stylist made him look like this.

"I feel like he can walk into the wedding hall at any time. Why are you so handsome today, Dean Loren? Is this the emperor?"

Luvihir secretly took two photos. Today, just taking some photos of the emperor's life can be reported back to the agency to complete the work.

""Shocked, Emperor Creation actually appeared on the streets of Icerita, suspected to be waiting for his mysterious girlfriend!"

She wrote an alternative title in her notebook.

However, the woman walking towards the big tree where Loren was was was a bit unexpected.

because-

She is not Juliana of the Aloran Kingdom.

It was a woman they had never seen before, but who looked surprisingly familiar.

Her facial features are exquisite and her skin is fair and supple. Her first impression must be one of sweetness.

Her lips are bright red, but it doesn't look like the effect of makeup, but more like her innate characteristics, adding a touch of bright color to her face, which not only complements her fair complexion, but also makes her look more beautiful. Somewhat agile and energetic.

She is young and beautiful, with an innocent temperament but also has the charm of a mature woman.

7:22 am.

Loren originally thought that the other person was waiting for someone under the tree like him.

Unexpectedly, the other party walked up to him as if he mustered up the courage.

It seemed like there was something he wanted to say, but he was too shy to say it.

"Miss, do you need my help with anything?"

Loren asked with concern.

He could feel the other person's inner uneasiness.

"That, that..."

She was speechless.

As if waiting for someone to guide her.

"There's no rush. Speak slowly. I'm waiting for someone and I'm very free now."

Loren was more sure that she needed help and waved her hand.

Moreover, this girl made him feel inexplicably kind and friendly, and her pear-colored hair was the same as that of his brother and his younger brother Monast.

"Loren, I'm Florence..."

Florence lowered her head and muttered.

Her ears turned red when she said this.

She didn't know what Loren would think.

Will he be frightened? surprise? Or a surprise?

Even though Hyperion said she was beautiful, she didn't know if she was Loren's type.

As expected, Loren was stunned for half a second.

"Brother, why are you dressing up as a girl?"

he asked with a relieved smile.

There was no surprise at all, and he looked at Florence's new appearance curiously.

"ah?"

Florence looked up at Loren.

Her eyes were full of disbelief.

Why did Loren react like this? After seeing her original appearance, you still think she is a boy?

"Don't worry, I won't laugh at you. I know you must have your own reasons for dressing up as a girl."

Loren said quickly.

He finally understood why his brother was so scared just now.

“…”

Florence held back tears and clenched her clothes tightly, hiding her confusion with shame and embarrassment.

The embarrassment was killing her.

"Ahaha, I dressed up as a girl today because I might be seen by people from my family meeting the Emperor alone, so I sneaked out to see you and had to disguise myself."

She replied with a forced smile.

Instructor Xiaoxiu didn't teach her what to do in this situation.

In order to relieve her embarrassment, she came to her senses and answered like this.

But after answering she regretted it.

[Hugh: Miss Florence, you can’t answer like this. This lie is too false. When Loren sees that you are lying, she will also find out how embarrassed you are. 】

Because Hyperian immediately pointed out the problem for her.

"So that's it."

Loren nodded seriously, not doubting Florence at all.

He also has another good brother who always does the same thing, dressing up as a girl when going out to avoid the limelight.

“…”

Florence panicked again.

This time it wasn't just her, there was no sound from Hyperion's side either.

Loren just accepted her words so easily?

Florence thought that her excuse was too lame and would be exposed the next moment.

As a result, she became more and more unable to say that she was a girl.

Moreover, how should she prove to Loren that she is a girl?

This time around, it seemed more and more like she was reinforcing to Loren the fact that they were good brothers.

other side.

"Brother, why don't you speak?"

Loren didn't know why Florence didn't speak for a long time.

He didn't ask the instructor much for the earliest item on today's schedule, "meeting with brothers."

The instructor's help is limited to giving him guidance when he gets along with girls and helping him arrange his schedule for the whole day.

【orchid:…】

The instructor did not speak at this moment.

It may be that he is unable to speak at this moment, or it may be that he is unable to speak at this moment.

Loren glanced at the time on his watch.

It's 7:24 now.

He has to rush to the east entrance of Golden Bee Playground before 7:35 to meet the Ice Witch and have a little chat;

Then around 7:45, on the pretext of buying snacks by herself, she asked the Snow Witch to queue up at the amusement park;

He rushed to find Juliana before the Golden Bee Amusement Park opened at 8 o'clock, had breakfast with her, and placed her in the restaurant;

Find Florence by then, go to the VIP channel of Golden Bee Playground at 8:10, and take Florence in;

After finding the entertainment items and settling Florence, I returned to the entrance at about 8:15 to continue queuing with the Ice Witch...

Loren mentally recited the itinerary arranged for him by the instructor. Today, every second counts. Most of the time will be spent on the road. He cannot delay for half a second, and the route planning must be correct.

Although the instructor did not remind him of the time issue, he could not just stay silent with Florence at this moment, otherwise he would not be able to catch up with the Ice Witch, and Artis might already be waiting for him.

"Florence..."

Loren stared at Florence. He remembered the last time he met Florence. The instructor said that he had done a good job.

The instructor had told him in advance that when he didn't speak, he should rely on him to perform on his own, either by referring to the schedule or the successful case he was taught last time.

So…

Loren came to a conclusion.

He stretched out his hands and pressed Florence's shoulders, hugging Florence tightly without saying a word.

"Eh? Eh!"

Before Florence could recover, she was already hugged by Loren.

[Hugh: Huh? 】

Hyperion didn't react either.

Is Dean Loren so radical?

Florence's brain, which had been unable to move, was about to melt at this moment.

[Hugh: First, first, first, first, let’s make a plan. 】

After a long time, Hyperion's voice came from Florence's communication magic, and she seemed a little confused.

Hyperion didn't know what to do.

How could someone know that their soul friend is a girl and think that he is a man disguised as a woman? ! This is not normal, okay!

[Xiu: I will hide behind you and follow you today. I will wait and see for a while before teaching you. You are not right in the line now. You should release the line first and be a little more cowardly. 】

This was the only way she could reassure Florence.

Under the big tree.

"Florence, I'm back. I'm sorry for making you worry."

Loren apologized to Florence, hugging his brother tightly.

"Aba Aba..."

Florence was almost fainting in Loren's arms.

…

7:30 am.

The other side of the city-state of Icerita.

At the north entrance of Jinfeng Playground.

Before the official opening, a long queue has already formed here, and tourists are eagerly waiting for the opening of the amusement park.

Although there are no light shows and fireworks at night, the spectacular amusement park looks lively at first glance.

Its affiliated Icerite Crown is the largest comprehensive entertainment group located in the capital of Hutton in the southern continent, including casinos, hotels, restaurants, shops and conference facilities.

The treasure land located on the banks of the Yala River has gradually been built into one of the largest comprehensive entertainment centers in the southern continent and is also a tourist attraction in Ikerita.

Since its opening, Icerite Crown has undergone multiple expansions and renovations, continuing to expand its size and offerings to include more recreational facilities, hotel rooms, food and beverage services and an all-ages playground.

Especially today, a special holiday and a weekend, before the opening time of Jinfeng Amusement Park, there was a long queue at the ticket gate at the entrance of the amusement park.

Lanci and Talia were waiting in the queue, waiting for the ticket gate to open in the distance half an hour later.

“…”

Lan Qi listened to the situation on the communication magic side.

Just because he doesn't speak doesn't mean he doesn't want to speak.

But he was beside Thalia and couldn't speak.

Fortunately, there is no need for him to help with laning.

The opponent is too weak, except that Loren is a little too aggressive, so there are basically no hidden dangers.

"Lan Qi, what are you doing?"

Thalia tugged on Ranchi's hand and asked, puffing her cheeks.

She felt that Lan Qi was distracted just now.

Now that I agreed to accompany her to the amusement park, I should focus on her wholeheartedly.

"Sorry, I was so busy today. I didn't sleep for a few hours yesterday."

Lanci said to Talia apologetically.

"Is this so?"

Thalia observed Lanqi's eyes for a while, as if she had seen him when he was working in the Creja Empire.

"It's okay. Let's do some leisure activities later. You can also sleep against me on the bench for a while."

Thalia suddenly felt a little distressed. It could be seen from his expression that he might be really tired.

And he has a performance this afternoon.

I took him to relax in the morning.

In addition, if Ranch can fall asleep, she can also teach Julianna later, and she herself will have to take some time to teach Julianna how to date Loren.

"Thank you very much, Tata."

Lanci thanked Thalia.

Today, the difficulty on his side was much higher than that of Loren. He needed to follow Loren as much as possible to understand the real-time situation on Loren's side, and at the same time, he had to satisfy Thalia and Sigrid.

Anyway, the matter has come to this, and Loren has chosen the latter between the options of "date one of them" and "date everyone", so he can only help Loren to fight to the end and deal with it with all his strength.

He will definitely pass today's test.

"Meow…"

The cat boss poked his head out from the shadow at Lan Qi's feet, but he didn't dare to poke it out completely. Only the cat's head and bright eyes were exposed.

It was very scared. Lan Qi's schedule was even fuller than the course schedule of Purgatory Corridor College. Everything was perfectly matched to the extreme. If there was any problem in any link, everything would probably explode.

Lan Qi's own schedule was twice as full as Loren's. While he was dating Langhu at the same time, he also had to change his position to watch Loren and teach Loren how to date.

The cat boss originally planned to follow Pranay today, but he was too worried about Lanqi. At the same time, only he knew Lanqi's plan. When Lanqi was weak, he was the only one who could help Lanqi save Loren, so he still followed. Ranchi is here.

Its cat ears twitched, and it turned back to look toward the distant end of the team.

I saw a vague, idle figure leaning against a big tree beside the broad road.

She didn't join the crowd to queue up at all, as if she planned to wait for the queue to finish before she could enter the venue without queuing.

And Boss Cat knows who it is—

Sigrid is wearing a beret today, and she looks like an adult version of Sigre, more like a boy.

She put on a more youthful outfit that was suitable for traveling far away. Her hair was **** and hidden in a hat, with some light-colored hair falling naturally from the temples.

It won't be so conspicuous when playing with Ranchi later, and it will be easy to move around.

And her chic appearance attracted the attention of many girls.

After staring at her carefully, I realized that her face was beautiful.

Some girls looked away with sighs, while others became even more excited.

Sigrid was chatting with the communication magic.

"Artis, don't be nervous. Don't think of it as a date between a man and a woman. If you ask, it's business. If you ask again, it's in the name of God. I may not be able to communicate with you in real time later, but don't worry. , I will help you most of the time, I am also at the Golden Bee Playground this morning, and I will also go to the Brilda Opera House in the afternoon.”

Sigrid preached intently.

She occasionally looked at the figures of Lanci and Thalia in the distance.

She would wait for Lanci to find a chance to settle Thalia, and then go on a date with her.

Before that, she had enough time and free time to instruct the Ice Witch on how to talk to her date.
