I see myself in Genshin Impact

"Hey, isn't this Luko-senpai? There are few visitors..." A young miko with short pink hair was sitting behind the desk. She originally lowered her head and looked at the report in her hand. She heard a knock on the door and called out. He said "Come in". He originally thought it was his personal miko, but unexpectedly when he looked up, he realized that he was an acquaintance. He quickly stood up with a smile.

"Haha, Hanako Miko, your scientific research department is not so busy, so you don't have to come back in such a hurry..." After closing the door, Coramiya Luko smiled and said hello to Hanako Miko, the director of the scientific research department, and then walked towards the guest seat. After sitting down, Hanako Miko quickly shouted outside, "Pour tea!", but Coramiya Roko raised her hand to stop her and said, "No... I'm not here to drink tea today."

"Oh? It's really strange for Luko-senpai to come. When I went to eat at noon, I heard that you went to inspect the situation of the residential base. Why did you come back in such a hurry?" Hanako Miko didn't force herself, and followed Coral Palace Luko's instructions. Yiyi also sat back, then raised his head and asked with a smile.

"Haha, it's nothing. There was a temporary change... I didn't make it." Coral Palace Luzi frowned and said perfunctorily. She knew that news circulated quickly in Coral Palace, so in order to dispel other people's suspicions, she had to say this, Then she looked up at Hanako Miko.

Hanako Miko is her junior at the school behind the Coral Palace. She entered the school a year earlier than her. Because her mother was assisting the Grand Miko at the time, she is almost certain to be the next Assistant Grand Miko. And Hanako Miko Although she entered the school a year late, her mother was also the head of the scientific research department at the time, so the two were very close to each other in the school. Not long after she took over the position of assistant to the great miko, she successfully became the next Head of the scientific research department.

As for the ten-year research and study period, it naturally does not play a role in her position as a ministerial miko. What's more, because her mother is the minister of scientific research, there is actually a lot of information that she has been exposed to since she was a child, so she is very relaxed. So I started working on this job.

Due to her past relationship at school, Hanako Miko prefers to call Corumiya Luko "Senior Luko". Since she is her direct subordinate, Corumiya Luko also acquiesces to this.

"As the saying goes, don't go to the Three Treasures Hall for anything. Luko-senpai came here today. It's not a fixed time every month. I guess there are some temporary tasks that need to be handed over to our scientific research department?" Hanako Miko pursed her lips. , folded his hands on the table and asked in a low voice close to Coral Palace Luko.

"Well, you guessed it right. I came here for something..." Coral Palace Luzi nodded and said: "There were records that when we were in Yuanxia Palace in the past, there was no Dainichi Yuyu in the early days. People couldn't tell the difference between day and night, so they created some kind of hypnotic drug to enable people to rest well. Later, after the Dainichi Yuyu was built, this drug was still hidden, and was finally included in the scientific research department. Is that what happened?”

"..." Hearing Coral Palace Luko's question, Hanako Miko looked up curiously and thought to herself: "Senior Luko, you haven't been too busy recently, causing insomnia..."

609 Sword Immortal Chapter: The Second Life·Imprisonment

"Senpai Luko is talking about those drugs that help people sleep..." Hanako Miko asked, tilting her head.

"Yeah, I've been a little busy lately. As a result, when I close my eyes at night, I think of a lot of things at work. I've had insomnia many times, so I'm here to ask..." Coral Miya Luko directly used herself as a shield. She knew that this matter was very serious. It was difficult to hide it, and asking my subordinates to buy it would be useless and might increase other risks, so I gave up going to places like pharmacies and started directly from the scientific research department. After all, not many people knew that there was such a collection in the scientific research department.

"Oh, that's what happened, but why didn't Luko-senpai go to the pharmacy to buy it?" Out of caution, Hanako Miko still asked.

"This is not because the pharmacy on Haiji Island is the property of our Coral Palace. If I go to buy it, a lot of people will come to me with various soothing gifts. This goes against my will. That's my intention..." Coral Palace Luzi leaned on the back of the chair and said helplessly: "I caught a cold a while ago, so I went to the pharmacy to buy some cold medicine, and then a lot of businessmen and witches quietly came to deliver things, and even Some of them were sent directly to my office, and I spent several days trying to return those gifts. Do you think I still dare to do that now?"

"Oh, that's true..." Mentioning this, Hanako Miko also had a smile on her face, because she was also one of the people who gave gifts at that time. After all, everyone else had given them. As Luko-senpai's direct subordinate, she also Treat it like nothing is wrong. Isn't this intentional to leave a clue? Your own scientific research department does not have enough research funds. If you are stuck because of this matter, don't cry.

Anyway, this is mainly about face and friendship. If you give it to Miko Roko, she will definitely return it. After all, the atmosphere of Haiji Island is very conservative, and the disciplinary inspection department is always watching, so giving gifts in a big way is just to save face, Coral Miyaroko may not necessarily write down who went to give gifts, but she must have written down who did not go to give gifts. After all, the assistant archmiko has great authority. Almost all the funds that need to be approved in Kaiji Island must be stamped by her before they can be delivered. If you offend the goddess and miko, the application for this fund will be delayed for a month or two...

"The drugs developed during the Yuanxiagong period were all tested by our ancestors. The efficacy of the medicines can be guaranteed, and they are versatile and versatile. However, the drugs from the Yuanxiagong period have been available for at least 500 years. Since then, After the Dainichi Gogo was built, such medicinal materials gradually became scarce. Currently, only the formula and a few medicinal materials have been passed down to this day. According to the sample regulations, we will make another batch after the medicinal effect expires, but..." Hanako Miko thought about it. Of course, she can give this kind of medicine, but as the head of the research department, she should naturally pretend to be poor, otherwise the people below will not know what to say to her, so she said in an awkward manner: "It's far from the last batch of medicine." The production of the herb has just passed not long ago. Although our research department has a piece of land outside specifically for planting such herbs, it will take three months to harvest in the fall. If we can advance now..."

"Haha, I know..." Coral Palace Luko understood as soon as she heard what the other party said. The scientific research department has the medicine. She can give it to herself now, but the quantity may not be enough to be used as a sample to cultivate the next generation. After all, it is known how many medicines can be refined from these medicinal materials every year. The scientific research departments of the past dynasties have records. There is no problem if one or two pills are missing. It is enough to report that one pill has gone bad and throw it away, but you can ask for it yourself. It is definitely impossible to just take one pill and leave. It requires at least a course of pills, about thirty to sixty pills. To say that so many pills have gone bad is to disgrace the ministers of the scientific research department in the past. This kind of major loss is extremely rare. At that time, there will be no disciplinary inspection department to intervene, so if the other party wants to hand it over to him reasonably, he will need to ask himself to help make a time difference.

Coral Palace Luko did not intend to leave any clues here, and her true intention was not clear to the other party. Then she smiled slightly and said: "That's it, then, can you give me one first and let me try it? If it works If so, how about I give you a special note when the next batch of medicinal materials is harvested? After all, I've just been a little insomniac these past few days, maybe I can get better by taking one~"

"Oh, that's no problem. I think this might be the best~" Hanako Miko saw that Corumiya Roko took the initiative to give in and gave herself a lot of room for maneuver within her scope of responsibility. She also made a promise, even if it was just The verbal words were enough. She nodded, and then said: "This is also what it should be. After all, there is a long distance between the medicines in Yuanxiagong period and now. It would be a pity if you take too much and find that it has no effect. I I understand~"

Then Hanako Miko took out the key from the drawer and left voluntarily to a small temporary warehouse next to the minister's office. She packed a sleeping pill from the Fuchashiya period in a small wooden box, and then returned to the office and gave it to Riko Miko.

"Thank you. I remember it was recorded in the information that this only needs to be mixed with water and taken, right?" Coral Palace Luzi opened the small box and looked at it. A black and red pill the size of a rice grain was lying inside. She closed the small wooden box. After taking the box, he looked up and asked.

"Yes, in fact, according to records, the pills were very big at the beginning. It was just because children couldn't take those pills that the doctors at the time improved them and turned them into this kind. After being concentrated, it has a sweet floral fragrance. Just put one in a tea bowl and wait for the hot water to dissolve it. The whole family can take it, and there are no side effects. It is of great help to people who did not have the Daiichi Goyo in the early days." Hanako Miko said. He said after sitting back down.

"Okay, I'll give it a try first. If it works, I'll come back in the future. After all, buying medicines to calm the nerves and help sleep in the pharmacy will have too much impact. Even those little hooves can't control their own mouths..." said At this point, Coral Palace Luko turned her head and looked at Hanako Miko with a pointed look, intending to wake her up.

"Well, please don't worry, Luko-senpai. We are a scientific research department after all. We don't have that much gossip. Information here is very limited. Please keep it in mind~" Hanako Miko responded with a smile.

"Okay, in that case I'm leaving. I'll give it a try later." Komiya Roko shook the small wooden box, stuffed it into her sleeves, turned around and left, while Hanako Miko took out a piece of information and filled it out. Due to material reasons, a sleeping pill was damaged. After inspection, it was found that it could no longer be used as a teaching material. To prevent others from accidentally eating it, it was destroyed and buried under a tree...

After leaving the scientific research department, Coramiya Luko did not return to her office. Instead, she turned and walked towards the criminal department to the west, where she was in charge. She had just gone through the materials recently submitted by the criminal department in her mind. , I am very interested in one of the newly developed things and plan to take it back.

The criminal department is a smaller place than the scientific research department. After all, Haiji Island does not have a large city except the Coral Palace. People are scattered in various small villages. There are big families or famous old people in the villages responsible for management. , so except for the direct jurisdiction of a few small villages relatively close to the Coral Palace, the criminal department is rarely used in other places.

However, the predecessor of the Criminal Department was actually the Penal Department during the Fuchoshita Palace period. The Penal Department already existed before Orobas ruled the Fuchoshita Palace. Abe, the builder of the Dainichi Gogo at that time, was exposed to the sun for a long time. His son, after being arrested by various big families behind the scenes, was burned to death on charges issued by the Penal Department. After Orobas ruled the Yuanxia Palace, the Penal Department was transformed and became the Criminal Department. , and has survived to this day.

Most of their work is to study the laws and regulations of various countries in Teyvat to see if they can be applied to Haiji Island, or to study some laws and regulations themselves, and then the assistant grand witch will review them. If the review is passed, they will It has become the official law of Haiji Island, but whether it is implemented or not depends on the villages below. After all, Haiji Island is very good if it can have enough food. How can there be so many criminals on Haiji Island? After all, who doesn’t know who? If my family is poor, is it possible that other families are rich?If you are rich, why do you live in the village instead of buying a house near the Coral Palace?

At other times, the criminal department will develop some torture instruments to imprison criminals, but they can't catch a few criminals a year. Although Haiji Island Prison is also under their control, most of the time they are arrested and sent for labor reform. There are not many people inside. If there were any people who committed human life cases, they would have been killed long ago. There would be no waste of food waiting for multiple trials. There are not so many complicated things here.

After arriving at the criminal department, Coramiya Luko found their director. Without making any detours in the scientific research department, she directly explained that Kaiji Island had been developing well recently. Some Zhidong spies had secretly come over to cause trouble. The undercover whistleblowers caught a few of them. Among them, there was a woman whose torture tools were not up to par. She wanted their newly developed small handcuffs and shackles to be sent directly to her office in a while.

The other party rarely visits Coramiya Luko in person a few times a year. Now that he knows that the new thing he has developed has been spotted by his superiors and has a place to be put to use, he is naturally overjoyed. However, this matter involves a secret whistle after all, so The head of the criminal department signed a confidentiality agreement, packed a pair of small torture instruments and sent them to the personal witch.

"Everything is ready... Haha..." After Coral Palace Luzi returned to the office, she looked at the items on the table and smiled slightly. Her eyes were cold, as if she saw how this thing was used on the other person, although it was very strange. I don't respect the other party, but the key is there, and I will naturally unlock it for the other party later. It's not a long-term detention... It's just that there is a good show, and I plan to let the other party see it.

After that, Coramiya Luko continued to process documents in the office. The things on the table were sent to her home by the personal miko. When the other party came back, she was asked to look at the door and notify herself when her mother came back.

While processing the documents, she was thinking of strategies in her mind. Soon the time came to four o'clock in the afternoon. It was more than an hour before Kaijijima got off work, and the personal miko had not returned yet, which made her inner anger even higher.

"Assistant Archmiko, the counselor is back..." The personal miko knocked on the door and whispered.

"Well, I know." Coral Palace Luzi looked up at the clock and said with a gloomy face: "It's really fun, mother. I just came back at this time. I'm afraid you are not happy and miss your childhood, are you? Do you still have Coral Palace in your heart? ?Do you still have my daughter? In that case, don’t blame me for being unjust if you are unkind!"

Suppressing the anger in her heart, Coral Palace Luzi blinked and began to think in her mind: "Today is Wednesday, I usually get home after five o'clock, and Piao Ling will not come until that time... Well, there is enough time... "

He raised his head and glanced out the window again. The sky, which originally had only a few dark clouds at noon, was now overcast. There was likely to be a storm tonight. This scene reminded Coral Palace Luko of that night half a year ago. It was at that time that I was with Yu Piao Ling... I didn't expect that half a year later, the weather would be like this again.

"But this is fine..." Coral Palace Luko nodded, took away the small wooden box containing the sleeping pills, sorted the documents on the table neatly, and left the office. She said to a personal miko: "I am not in good health today. It’s very comfortable. I plan to go back and rest early. Please notify my mother later and ask her to come and see me when she is free~”

"Hey? Are you feeling unwell, Grand Assistant Miko? Do you want to go to the pharmacy for a checkup?" The personal witches asked quickly after hearing this.

"No need. The last time I caught a cold, the whole Haiji Island was in a state of panic. I was upset and felt even more tired after I recovered than when I was sick. Don't announce it loudly this time. I will lie down for a while. That’s good, maybe things will be back to normal tomorrow…”

When Coral Palace Luko said this, she repeated it in her heart: "Yes, maybe by tomorrow, everything will be back to normal..."

"Okay, Assistant Grand Miko, please have a good rest. I will take you there~" The personal miko nodded quickly.

"Well, I'm leaving. You can just get off work at that time..." Coral Palace Luzi asked again, then slowly left the Coral Palace. Later, she increased her speed a little and walked quickly back to her villa. He opened the torture instrument that was delivered and looked at it. After hiding the key, he stuffed it under the coffee table and covered it with a cloth to make it inconspicuous. Then he boiled water, poured tea leaves into the teapot, and prepared to make tea.

As for the wooden box containing the sleeping pills, she had already thrown them away. Only the pills were hidden in the cuff of her left hand, waiting for her to take them at any time.

Just when the water was almost boiling, there was a knock on the door: "Luzi, are you there? I heard that you are not feeling well, so I came to see you~"

Hearing this familiar voice, Coral Palace Luzi turned around and walked into the hall with the teapot in hand. She looked at the door. After a strange smile appeared from the corner of her mouth, she blinked and said: "Mother, the door is unlocked. You can just come in..." …”

And her left hand was quietly clenched into a small fist.

610 Sword Immortal Chapter: Second Life·Under Imprisonment

Hearing that her daughter Luzi was fine, Coral Palace Meixin opened the door and walked in. She came in a hurry and didn't hold anything in her hands. She glanced at her daughter and found that her complexion was as normal. She thought it might be an internal condition of her body, so she closed the room. He opened the door, changed into slippers at the entrance, and walked straight towards her. As he walked, he asked, "Does it hurt somewhere inside your body? Or is your aunt here?"

"No, mother, it's not like you don't know your daughter's time. It's not today..." Coral Palace Luzi carried the teapot and walked to the coffee table to put it down. Then she sat on the sofa and smiled: "It's just that I felt a little uncomfortable just now. , so I informed you..."

"Hey...you~" Coral Palace Meixin looked at her daughter who was moving well and sat next to her. The fragrance after taking a bath spread to Coral Palace Luzi's nose, letting her know about Coral Palace Mei Xin's state, so she strengthened her thoughts in her heart.

"I know things in the residential base will be quite busy recently. After all, it has been almost a hundred years since this kind of place was last developed. Everyone in the Coral Palace is in a hurry. Don't be too anxious. I will also help you..." Coral Palace Gong Meixin mistakenly thought that the recent high pressure at work had caused her daughter's problem, so she explained: "Today I went to the shell in the southeast corner of the Coral Palace to have a look. There is no problem with the data department's report. Then you can directly Just get it approved~"

"Hey... Mother, have you gone there to see it?" When Coral Palace Luzi heard this, the gloom in her eyes flashed away, then she raised her head and chuckled: "That's really hard work, Mother, I've been having a headache lately. , should I go and take a look in person, otherwise I won’t know for sure. Now that Mother has seen it, I can rest assured~"

"Well, you can just leave it to me without any worries~ I have also seen the specific housing plan, and I know it in my mind. Basically, now that I have a clear idea of ​​the situation, I am just waiting for the remaining details to be taken care of before the official start of construction. Just build it." Coral Palace Meixin didn't notice that her daughter was wrong, and continued to comfort her: "I was the one who negotiated the cooperation with the Green Ghost Clan at the beginning, and I still hope to do a good job in this matter before I step down. It can be considered as standing guard for the last shift~"

"Haha, thank you for your work, Mother~ I'll just go and do some other things right now~" Coral Palace Luzi nodded, especially when she heard 'Stand up for the last post', the disdain in her eyes became even more obvious. , thought in his mind: "Hmph, that's really nice to say. If it weren't for Piao Ling, would you want to leave so much? Are you anxious? It seems that my presence has some effect. At least in the past six months, Mother and Piao Ling have been together. There should be no more opportunities to be together, which is a good thing for me, otherwise my next preparations will probably be just asking for trouble in the end..."

In the six months since she had been with Yu Piao Ling, it was not that Coral Palace Luzi had done nothing. Although she did not make her relationship with Yu Piao Ling public on the surface, privately she had been subtly influencing Yu Piao Ling, and she was also aware of Yu Piao Ling's influence. The character hidden in Piao Ling's heart is arrogance. On the other hand, when Coral Palace Luzi first started, she always thought that that night half a year ago was a charity given to her by Yu Piao Ling. Deep down in her heart, the other party felt guilty about Xin Hai. Regarding her mother’s compensation and her daughter Coral Gong Liuli’s thoughts, but after actually getting in touch with her, she discovered that this was not the case. Yu Piaoling’s vision was very high, and not all kinds of people could be with him. And he is not the kind of person who will force himself. If he didn't have any thoughts about himself, he would definitely reject it more bluntly that night. Therefore, Coramiya Luko later relaxed the reason for making the relationship transparent and public, because The other party has himself in his heart.

Coral Palace Luko decided to treat Yu Piaoling gently, and even treated Yupiao Ling more broadly to give him time to deal with matters with his mother. It was not a bad thing for the two of them to gradually cool down, but what was counterproductive was that what she discovered at noon today made her understand once again, Yu Piaoling's inner greed will never let go, and her mother still hasn't noticed anything. It's not a joke that a woman in love has a negative IQ. According to her past understanding of her mother, a little disturbance in the Coral Palace is enough. She was alerted, but she has not changed at all so far. This made Coral Palace Luko very angry and decided to take tough measures.

What's more, what makes her find it difficult to accept is that her mother doesn't seem to realize the relationship between her daughter and Yu Piaoling. How unfair is it that all the pressure has been put on Coramiya Roko?Of course she won't blame Yu Piao Ling, because she was the one who discovered the relationship between her mother and Yu Piao Ling, and now she has given her mother half a year. You should have discovered or noticed it, right?However, the result was 'no'. The other party still went his own way and lived a good life. In this case, how could Coral Palace Luko not be angry?

Afterwards, Coral Palace Meixin began to chatter. On the one hand, she was concerned about her daughter's words, and on the other hand, she was concerned about the work arrangements in Coral Palace. Coral Palace Luzi listened silently, nodded, picked up the teapot on the table, stood up and bent over. She started pouring tea at her waist. When Coral Palace Meixin was thinking about something, she suddenly let go of her left hand, and a pill the size of a rice grain suddenly fell into the tea cup. When soaked in boiling water, it quickly melted, but because The color of the tea soup did not appear abnormal, and then the tea fragrance covered up the slight medicinal smell...

Looking at all this, Coral Palace Luko turned her head and glanced at her mother again, and found that she was not aware of it, so she put a smile on her lips, put the teapot away, and placed the tea cup with pills in front of her mother. , another cup without medicine was placed in front of him, and then he sat on the sofa, his eyes inadvertently glanced at the clock in the living room, and he calculated the time in his mind.

"This time, the development of our residential base has received support from Narukami Island..." Coral Palace Meixin said: "According to the original cooperation regulations, in addition to accepting the Aoki clan, our Haiji Island must also provide They respect them enough to allow them to live well on Haiji Island. Therefore, this residential base is the second phase of the original plan. As long as we get a good start, we don't have to worry too much about the rest. Time will smooth everything out~"

"Oh? So Narukami Taisha Shrine is also paying attention to this matter?" Coral Palace Luko picked up the tea cup, blew it gently, and then turned around and asked.

"Haha, on the surface, this matter was personally led by the Grand Marshal Yu Piaoling, but behind the scenes, how could the current leader of the monsters, the Eightfold Divine Gongsi of the Sky Fox, be indifferent? She must be paying attention to this matter all the time. , because she still needs to use this matter to improve the other person's reputation among monsters..." Coral Palace Meixin mistakenly thought that her daughter had not seen through the twists and turns inside, and continued: "The appointment and social implementation are also both Someone intervened in this matter. The reason for the designation of construction materials is that they can promote tax revenue, and the community plans to hold a festival at the residential base. At that time, many monsters will be invited to participate to celebrate the new life of the Aoki clan. It is said that The Red Ghost clan will also send people to participate..."

"Well, the relationship between mother and the society is very good, and I hope it can be maintained~" Coral Palace Luko nodded and said: "I have also read the plan. It is said that we only need to provide the venue and manpower, and the society When the festival is held, they are responsible for providing funds and stalls. It is said that the fireworks and other things are handed over to a female shopkeeper named Naganohara Fireworks Shop, which seems to be called Yonomiya or something... The monsters who come to participate in the festival are selected by Narukami Taisha Shrine, and the shrine is responsible for the festival. Princess Egret will take the initiative in this regard..."

"Yes, by then this will be the largest event on Haiji Island in the past hundred years, and it will definitely bring huge revenue. If possible, such events will also be made into a template in the future. On the one hand, we will increase our relationship with Narukami Island. On the other hand, the relationship between them can also promote the development of the island..." Coral Palace Meixin sighed: "After all, the location of our Haiji Island is too remote..."

"Yes, indeed." Coral Palace Luzi also agreed, and then asked: "I heard that the Grand Marshal also asked the Chamber of Commerce of All Nations on the outlying island. Will people from other countries participate?"

"Yes, regarding this point, the more people the better, but I'm afraid people won't come~ It's best if it's lively and everyone is happy. Otherwise, if it's deserted, it will be a failure of our efforts this year... …”

"Okay, so regarding this matter, should we contact the Society directly, or should we communicate directly with the Grand Marshal?" Coral Palace Luzi blinked, looked at Coral Palace Meixin with a sharp gaze, and asked with a smile .

"Um... you've been busy with work recently, so why don't you take care of something easier? For example, the handover with the company? They signed a cooperation agreement with our Haiji Island 20 years ago, and they are considered our old friends. And I heard that Princess Egret is not very old. You and the other party should have a common topic. I still hope that you can have a few more friends..." Coral Palace Meixin's eyes dodged a little, and she turned her head and said to one side.

"Oh? Really, Princess Egret..." Coral Gong Luzi smiled after hearing this. She had naturally seen each other, and more than once, but her mother didn't know. After all, there was no need to inform the other party of her whereabouts. But it can be seen from the fact that her mother leaves the affairs of the society to herself. In her heart, she wants to be with Yu Piao Ling. Thinking of this, Coral Road shook her left hand, then pursed her lips and held the cup with her right hand. He brought the tea cup to his mouth and took a sip.

"Luzi, listen to my advice, Yu Piaoling and you are really not a good match..." After a long silence, Coral Palace Meixin turned her head and carefully looked at the silent Coral Palace Luzi and persuaded: "She is the rice wife Generalissimo, you are the assistant to the Grand Miko of Kaiji Island. It is inappropriate for two people to hold high positions..."

"Haha, is that right? But a year ago, Mother didn't have this attitude..." Coral Palace Luko blew on the tea cup again, the steam rose twistedly, and she looked through the mist at the blurry Coral Palace. Mei Xin: "How do I remember that my mother supported me in the beginning? Why doesn't she support me now? Did something happen in the meantime that my daughter doesn't know about?"

"No, no, why do you think so? It's just that I didn't think about it a year ago. I have thought about it now. For the benefit of Haiji Island, if you can't grasp this feeling, you may hurt yourself in the end. There is no result between you and him. In the past year, he has not come to the island to look for you. Can't you tell? In the past, it was all for Xiao Liuli's sake~ Don't misunderstand me. !" Coral Palace Meixin saw that her daughter Luzi's attitude has not changed after more than a year, and she anxiously persuaded her: "Just give up, silly girl, don't waste your time like this..."

"..." Coral Palace Luko heard her mother's words and smiled silently. Then she lowered her head and continued to drink tea without saying anything. After another long while, Coral Palace Luko frowned and asked: "Mother, Mother, I remember that a year ago you and Yu Piaoling went to the Narukami Island Guard Forest to negotiate with the Aoki clan, right? Your attitude has changed now, could it be that time, what happened?"

"No, no! Why do you think so? It's so funny what could happen between us..." Coral Palace Meixin smiled sarcastically and waved her hands, her expression a little embarrassed: "He is the Grand Marshal of Daozuma, and I am A consultant at the Coral Palace on Haiji Island, what can happen between us? We can’t fight each other..."

"Oh, really, then I misunderstood..." Coral Palace Luko nodded, then drank the tea in one gulp, put the tea cup on the table, and said with a disappointed expression: "Mother, you really don't support me. With Yu Piao Ling?"

"Well, Luzi, give up, he's not suitable for you..." Coral Palace Meixin couldn't help feeling guilty when she saw her daughter's disappointed expression. She hugged her daughter into her arms and patted her gently with her right hand. He said contraryly: "There are many people suitable for you. Your conditions are very good. There is no need to hang yourself from a tree..."

However, being held in her arms, Coral Palace Luko only felt cold inside. She did not notice the slightest warmth. In this embrace, she only saw a cunning mother who selfishly let her daughter leave while she held on tightly. Let go. At this moment, her heart was filled with despair. Anger and betrayal were intertwined, making her sink. She could only see a cold smile on her lips and whispered: "It's a pity, mother, it's too late... It's too late..."

"Huh? What did you say?" Coral Gong Meixin didn't hear her daughter's words clearly. She lowered her head and looked at her curiously, only to find Coral Gong Luzi smiling like a flower and saying: "Let's not talk about this matter now. I saw it was a bit late. Mother, how shall we eat tonight?"

"Oh? Dinner..." Coral Palace Meixin blinked in confusion, then glanced at the clock and found that it was almost time for other witches to get off work, so she asked: "Do you have any food here? I'll give it to you Just do it... Anyway, didn’t you feel unwell at first?”

"Oh, Mother, I'm so busy at work, how can I cook at home?" Coral Palace Luzi shook her head, then thought of something and asked: "How about we go to the cafeteria to eat later, aren't they always open? …”

"Well, okay..." Coral Palace Mei thought for a while and agreed. Anyway, for her, the Coral Palace cafeteria is a very familiar place, and it is normal to go there to eat~

"Okay, mother, I just sweated a little, so I'm going to take a shower first. Could you please help me put away the teacups~" Coral Palace Luko turned her head and glanced at the teacups on the table that her mother had never touched. , she never persuaded her mother to drink tea, because it was too obvious. She was familiar with her mother's habits, and knew that if her mother wanted to clean the tea cup, there would be empty tea in it, and if it was warm, her mother would drink it. If it was cold, it would be poured out, so she didn't even look at the tea cup. She just said it as if it was her daughter's coquettishness, then turned and walked towards the bathroom where her clothes had already been put away.

"Hey, you... okay, you are a big girl now, don't forget to pack your things in the future..." Coral Palace Meixin looked at her daughter's back, shook her head helplessly, then looked at the tea cup, and found Luzi's The cup of tea had been finished, but his own was still steaming and mild, so he picked it up and drank it in one gulp. Although there was a little medicinal smell in it, after all, Luzi came back because he was feeling unwell, so maybe there was something in it. After buying some herbs for body conditioning, Coral Palace Meixin didn’t take it to heart, and then took the teacup and teapot to the kitchen to wash them. Although no other herbs were found when pouring the tea leaves into the teapot, only tea leaves were found, but at this time Her attention was no longer here.

After washing and putting it on the coffee table, she listened to the sound of her daughter taking a bath in the bathroom. She picked up the magazine on the coffee table and read it. As for the small box covered with cloth on the floor below the coffee table, she noticed it. , but I just thought it was something my daughter bought, maybe a new bottle of red wine or something, and I didn’t open it to look at it.

About ten minutes later, Coral Palace Luko finished taking a bath and put on a close-fitting white short skirt. Her long legs were wrapped in black stockings. Her hair was spread out and swaying behind her head in big waves. She looked quite like a mature lady, with light makeup on her face, bright lipstick, and black eyeliner at the corners of her eyes that looked quite tempting. She walked to the sofa and sat down, looking at the cleaned teacup at the corner of her mouth. He smiled and leaned back on the sofa.

"Why are you dressed like this?" Coral Palace Meixin yawned and glanced at her daughter, then said dissatisfied: "We are going to the Coral Palace cafeteria, where it is better to wear a witch costume..."

"I understand, Mother, can you change it later~ Hehe~" Coral Palace Luzi waved her hand and said perfunctorily, then she saw that Mother was not in a good mental state, knowing that the effect of the medicine was about to take effect, she grinned. After a moment, he bent down and picked up the small box covered with cloth from the bottom of the coffee table and placed it on the coffee table.

"Are you still drinking at this time?" Coral Palace Meixin advised: "Be careful if you feel sick again..."

"Drinking? Oh..." Coral Palace Luzi looked at her mother curiously and found that the other party was staring at the thing covered with cloth. She roughly guessed what the other party was thinking, so she shook her head and said: "No, Mother, This is a new torture instrument sent over by the criminal department today, not wine..."

Then, Coral Palace Luko opened the cloth, and a logo with the Coral Palace Criminal Department was printed on the wooden box below, which looked extremely serious.

The small wooden box does not look big, about [-] centimeters, and is very light because the items inside are made of brand-new minerals. It is said that it also contains a bit of crystallized bone marrow, so it can be picked up by Coral Palace Luko with one hand.

"Tools of torture? Why were they sent to you?" Coral Palace Meixin watched Coral Palace Luzi slowly open the small wooden box, revealing the handcuffs and shackles inside, frowned and asked: "Even if you are the direct superior of the criminal department , they wouldn’t do this to please you..."

"Haha, mother, what do you think?" Coral Palace Luzi's eyes flashed, she turned her head and looked at Coral Palace Meixin with a hint, and asked with a smile.

"Hey?"

Coral Palace Meixin's eyes suddenly widened, and a trace of doubt and uneasiness arose in her heart...

PS: Dear readers, Happy New Year~

611 Sword Immortal Chapter: Second Life·End of Imprisonment

Coral Palace Luko noticed her mother's confused look. After smiling slightly, she lowered her head and looked at the torture instruments. The handcuffs and shackles were made of crystal ore as the main material. Not to mention they looked small, and they were also mixed with crystallized bone marrow. The overall The color is blue and translucent. If you remove the chain connected to it, it may be mistaken for a bracelet...

There are two keys placed under the small wooden box, which are used to open the keyholes of the handcuffs and shackles. The keys seem to be divided into three layers. Unless they are particularly professional, they cannot be cracked.

Of course, this kind of thing is almost useless to people with divine eyes, but for ordinary people, after being tied up, they can basically only be opened with a key.

"Luzi, why did their criminal department give you this so neatly?" Coral Palace Meixin asked curiously, otherwise she couldn't suppress the uneasiness in her heart. Although she didn't think her daughter would hurt herself, suddenly taking this out made her feel... My heart goes crazy.

"Hey, mother, what are you thinking about? Isn't it that the development of Haizhi Island is getting better and better recently? Many spies from the Solstice Kingdom came to observe. We caught many of them, and some of them were For girls, because the torture tools in the past were not very useful, I made a few new ones, and this one was sent here for me to try..." Coral Palace Luko stretched out her hand, stroking the cold handcuffs, and smiled. He said to his mother.

"Oh, that's it. I don't pay much attention to them, so I don't know. So they are so rampant now..." Coral Palace Meixin understood the reason and felt relieved, and then continued to lean on the sofa.

"Yes, Mother, what is in short supply in this world is the kind of people who know they have made mistakes but refuse to repent. What do you think we should do better if we catch such people? Coral Gong Luzi blinked, and asked while staring at Coral Gong Meixin with a pointed smile.

"Needless to say, I must give them a hard lesson to let them know that our Haizhi Island is not to be trifled with...haven't I taught you all this in the past?" Coral Palace Meixin looked angry. Said, she did not notice the abnormality of Coral Palace Luzi, but continued to sigh: "Luzi, I'm not telling you, there are many people in this world who can't change the shit-eating people, you need to take strict measures, A little negligence on our part may bring a devastating blow to Haiji Island. You must not be soft-hearted..."

"Yeah, you can't be soft-hearted, you have to kill me. Haha, what mother taught you is, thank you mother for your teaching, my daughter has listened~" Coral Palace Luzi nodded, then withdrew her right hand that was stroking the torture instrument, and leaned her whole body against it. On the back of the sofa, he took a deep breath and tilted his head and asked: "But mother, if the other party relies on someone, and is even related to some of the senior officials of our Haiji Island, there are countless connections between them. So what to do?”

"Hey, Luzi, even if this is the case, we can't tolerate adultery. If we just give a warning this time and let the other party go, then others will follow the same example and start to corrode Haiji Island internally. In the end, Our senior management will be completely ruined. Doing so will betray Lord Orobas, so even if it is a temporary pain, it is better than losing Haiji Island forever. Regarding this, I hope you can have a clear understanding..." Coral Palace Mei Kokoro continued to teach, while Coral Palace Luko listened very seriously. While listening, she looked at Coral Palace Meixin with strange eyes, and could barely hide the smile on her lips, as if she was mocking her mother who was now so open and upright. .

"I understand what Mother means. Does the other party do it knowingly that it cannot be done, so does it require a heavier punishment?" Coral Palace Luko nodded, fully agreeing with this point of view.

"Yes, that's it. Luzi, you are my carefully cultivated daughter, and now you have the important responsibility of assisting the great miko. You don't have to be afraid at all. You can handle this matter openly and let everyone despise it. She relies on the public opinion of the masses to achieve victory without worrying about bringing trouble to herself. I did the same thing at the beginning. I believe you can do it too. What's more, you still have Xiao Liuli and me behind you. If it's true, It's trouble, then leave it to me to deal with it, or I'll be responsible for the abuse at worst..." Coral Palace Meixin said sternly.

"Well, if that's the case, then I'm relieved. Thank you, Mother. I'll deal with it depending on the situation. After all, at this time, one more thing is worse than one less thing~" Coral Palace Luko looked like she had learned a lesson, and said to Coral Palace Meixin nodded her little head obediently, and then looked at the clock, while Coral Palace Meixin yawned, leaned on the sofa with her eyes closed, and whispered: "Hey, I'm a little sleepy. I'm doing a lot of work today. Isn’t that much...it feels almost the same as before..."

"Of course, didn't Mother make a hard trip to the residential base at noon? She must have encountered something, so she was delayed for a long time, right? Haha..." Coral Palace Luko saw that the medicine was starting to take effect, and she became bolder. He got up and turned around to speak more straightforwardly, but Coral Palace Meixin lost her guard due to sleepiness, waved her hand nonchalantly and said: "Hey, it's only a few hours... I'm not giving in..."

"Didn't you admit defeat? It seems that Mother is quite romantic..." Coral Palace Luzi tilted her head and looked at Coral Palace Meixin and laughed: "Oh my, I can't even hold on for a few hours. I didn't expect that Mother would actually I didn’t come back until after four o’clock, wasn’t it too much fun? Besides, I still smell the fresh fragrance after taking a shower, and I even changed into a miko costume..."
