"Exactly. And there is a premise hidden behind the act of [covering identity]—that is [the person who needs to cover up his identity has the possibility of contacting us]."

Memphis took over the conversation in a timely manner:

"No one will hide their identities from people who are completely impossible to contact for the second time, especially the cadres who are members of the demon clan and have little connection with the human world. Thinking about it the other way around, they made such a move this time." The purpose of an abnormal behavior is very thought-provoking..."

"You mean, those two cadres may not have returned to the Demon Realm, but are still lurking in the empire or even the imperial capital?"

Instantly understood Mephis' meaning, Yuxia's eyes suddenly cooled down:

"Very well, I'm worried that I won't see the so-called [Phantom], for me, there is no more happy news than this - this time, I will knock his head off with my holy hammer Bar."

Lucy: Shaking.

This wave of hatred is really full. It seems that Yuxiya is very dissatisfied that [Phantom] used my face.

"Ahaha, leave the search for cadres to me and His Majesty."

As expected of being the chief of the imperial capital, Mephis can actually laugh heartily in front of Yuxia's cold eyes that make the emperor feel a little terrified:

"Young people are free to do what young people should do. Although this statement makes me feel a little suspicious of relying on the old to sell the old, after all, youth is only once. When you can rely on us adults, try to trouble us as much as possible. "

"Mephis is right, I am here to give instructions, and this matter ends here for you."

After tidying up the mountain of official documents on the table, Tesla reached out and rubbed his temples as if he just remembered:

"By the way, Yuxia, Sanctuary heard that you came to the imperial capital. Recently, they have been sending 45 official letters a day to harass the imperial capital. I am here to tell you about this matter. As for how to arrange it, it is up to you. Use your own judgment."

...Grandpa Pope...

Yuxia shook her head helplessly:

"Yes, Father."

Chapter 359 Woo~ We're done!

"What? Father, they guessed our range of activities so quickly??"

After hearing the information brought back by Lu Xi, Claire, who had already changed back into her usual intellectual female official attire and put the poppies COS on the shelves, widened her eyes in surprise:

"Obviously I have tried my best not to show any flaws!"

"It can only be said that 'ginger is still hot when old'."

Sighing helplessly, Lu Xi leaned back on the sofa:

"As expected of a middle-aged group where old foxes gather together, even if there are no clues, they can find some clues."

"I've eaten more salt than I've eaten" Although it's a phrase used badly by the elderly, it's very suitable for the current situation.

Even President Fallon, who was said to be 'clear and simple' in the past, has been distorted into a qualified old fox in this team, and Mephis, who is good at planning, and Uncle Emperor, who is the leader of the old foxes, are naturally no exception.

"However, even if Uncle Tesla guessed that the cadre may not have returned to the Demon Realm, it will not involve the two of us."

After thinking about it seriously, Claire realized that this matter was actually not as serious as imagined:

"In the battle, I used [Magicality·Intellect] that has never been shown in front of people, and the [Phantom] used by Lu Xiqing is even more powerful—as long as you don't use it afterwards, The Phantom's true identity will always remain a mystery."

"No, no, no, absolutely no!"

Recalling the so-called [Phantom]'s 'attack' method that was worse than hitting a stone, Lu Xi shook his head firmly and decisively:

"Let's not talk about that, what about the holder of [Magic Nature Forgery]? Counting the time, it's about time for him to come out of the orb, right?"

"I've been watching from the sidelines."

Claire pointed to the orb thrown on the carpet:

"Although I know it's about this time, I'm not sure when he hid in the orb three days ago. According to inference, it will take another hour at most—ah! The orb moved!"

Before Claire's exclamation fell, the orb that had just been lying quietly on the floor released a bright brilliance.Some transparent ripples are constantly escaping around the orb—this is not the water vapor refracting sunlight that is usually seen, but the proof that [space] is emitting unstable fluctuations.

Finally, when the light was so bright that people couldn't open their eyes, there was a slight "pop~" sound, and the next moment, a noisy figure appeared in the light that had not completely dispersed:

"How is it? Have we been rescued? Or are we still under the clutches of the emperor? If it's the latter, please give us a good time. We are very weak-minded, and we will definitely not be able to withstand even the slightest bit of torture! Please! Already!"

"Don't worry, Lu Xiqing and I rescued you."

Rubbing her temples with a headache, Claire sighed deeply:

"We have spent a lot of effort to save you."

"Oh! It's the voice of Big Sister Claire! As expected of Big Sister! Really good!"

The light finally dissipated completely at this moment, and after adapting to the normal light, Lu Xi fixed his eyes on this bluffing [fake].

Different from the image of the mysterious man in black robe described by Lei Ze, the fake with short red hair has a fair face and a petite figure, and the expression on his face is a little bit confused because he suddenly appeared here.

It's a pity that the opponent's chest is absolutely flat, because of this, Lu Xi couldn't tell whether the opponent was a man or a woman for a while.

Is it a girl or a good-looking pseudo-mother?

When Lu Xi silently looked at the fake, the other party gradually came back to his senses, and saw his figure when he glanced around:

"It's someone I've never seen before! From the head of Sister Claire, you are Lu Xiqing, right? Hello, our name is Xia Li, and as you know, we are the holder of [Magic Nature·Forgery] .”

"Hi, I'm Lucy."

Looking at the hand extended generously by the other party, Lu Xi temporarily put aside his thoughts on gender issues, shook hands and introduced:

"As you said, it is the holder of [Magical Joy]."

[Ding, the holder of the magic imprint and counterfeit has been detected.In the compound of pure magic nature, the host gets 'Composite magic nature·happiness (false)', and the disappearance time of this effect will be determined according to the options of both parties. 】

[Composite magic and happiness (false) does not meet any activation conditions, please contact the other party to solve it. 】

The composite magic between me and Xia Li is also [happiness]?What are the pseudo-brackets behind that?

Just as this question arose from the bottom of Lu Xi's heart, it was interrupted by a particularly loud moan from Xia Li opposite:

"Yeah, eeeeeeee~~~~~"

Come on!Forget about the pleasant do-gooder trait!

The composite magic was disconnected on the system light screen like lightning, and just as Lu Xi was about to explain, Xia Li gasped and said with a flushed face:

"Huh~huh~ Elder Sister Kelaier is right, the feeling of linking with your demonic nature is really... ummm~~~ Let's go!"

Why does this guy look so intoxicated and happy? !Could it be a pervert? !

Also unable to stand Xia Li's shameful behavior, Claire coughed dryly, and silently condensed an ice pick in her hand:

"It took a long time to save you, be honest."

"Yes!"

Xia Li sat down immediately.

"Since you have already introduced each other, I won't say more."

Seeing that Xia Li finally calmed down, Claire put away the ice pick in satisfaction:

"About why you have been pretending to be a mysterious businessman and why you have been swindling in the aristocratic circle of the imperial capital, now is the time to tell the truth?"

"Miss Claire still doesn't understand us? The reason is of course [this]~"

Bend the index finger and thumb to make a 'moneymoney~' gesture, Xia Li smiled secretly:

"Most of the aristocracy's brains are not bright, but their family background is so rich that ordinary people can't match it. Seeing such a high-yield and low-risk target, how can we resist it?"

"low risk?"

Claire picked up the dossiers she had received in the past few months with a strange expression, and counted them one by one with Xia Li's smug smile:

"There are 74 cases in total, and most of the informants are powerful nobles. If I hadn't suppressed you here, the guards in the city would have searched for you long ago!"

"It's not like our eldest sister of the disguise technique doesn't know~ Unless those few strong people come to find it in person, it's just drizzle~"

Holding the back of his head with a smile, Xia Li was still trying to argue:

"Compared to that, we have saved a lot of small money recently? I just met Lu Xiqing today, how about we go to the Starry Sky Garden to book a place together?"

"You don't think you can hide it when you get here, do you?"

Not being induced by Xia Li's words, Claire sighed long and stretched out her hand to push her glasses:

"Lei Ze from the Wizards' Guild, Martin from the Alchemy Family, Alan from the Ancient Books Merchant—answer me, if you just want money, there are so many better big chambers of commerce, why do you leave them alone and go head-to-head What about these people?"

"Uh--"

Xia Li's unceasing smile froze on his face since his debut.

Chapter 360

"...Losing, losing! Sure enough, nothing can be hidden from the big sister who has [intelligence]!"

After stubbornly staring at each other for less than three seconds, Xia Li raised his hands in admiration:

"You guessed it right, we all have a purpose when we choose our targets - of course, small money is also one of the very important reasons, we are not lying about this."

"【Purpose】."

Really unable to have this kind of mysterious conversation with the problem child in front of her, Claire pushed the case file in her hand to Lu Xi tiredly:

"Lu Xiqing, can you see anything?"

"Um……"

After quickly browsing one side of the file, Lu Xi thought for a while:

"Xia Li's targets are not only rich people, but also rich people [with background]. You see, Lei Ze and Martin, these people are all from families that have been prominent since their ancestors and have been passed down to this day. One member. If my guess is not wrong, Xia Li's purpose should be [something] in the hands of such people."

"Super correct! Lu Xiqing, we want to give you a hundred likes!"

Shaking his thumb up and down at Lu Xi, Xia Li nodded vigorously:

"Lu Xiqing is right. We are very interested in historical information recently. After learning the public knowledge, we still feel dissatisfied, so we put our claws... Bah, bah, bah! It's our eyes of inquiry that have turned to a certain The guy who hides private goods—that is, the descendants of this group of big families."

"Are you interested in history??"

Claire, who is very familiar with Xia Li, opened her eyes wide in surprise, looking at the fake in front of her like a monster:

"I don't believe that you have changed so much in the few years since you left the imperial capital—you can't be a fake created by the main body through magic, [Xia Li (false)], right?"

"That's not it, big sister! It's us, we are! It's us who are fake!"

As if to prove himself, he patted his chest vigorously, and Xia Li coughed twice because of his too barren body:

"Look, aren't things that have something to do with history generally very valuable! At this point, the attraction of shiny gold coins has gradually diminished, so we began to especially want some unique collectibles to display Enjoy it in your room!"

Because the concept of money, which can be seen everywhere and the difference between everyone is only how much, gradually loses the concept, and turns to those unique historical relics... This is really a standard idea of ​​​​the rich.

"It was the same before. Seeing that all the deceitful prodigal sons in the imperial capital have been cheated, and those who are still dissatisfied with desires, let's go to the treasure house of the palace."

Having said that, Xia Li scratched his head in embarrassment:

"Who would have thought that the security measures in the palace would be so complete. We tried our best to beat the eldest sister's head, my father, in desperation, we could only hide in the orb (false) for a three-day dormancy-but we know Miss Claire will definitely come to save us! So I can sleep peacefully~"

"I also said why you were suddenly caught, so you wanted to go to the palace to steal something?!"

Claire leaned on the sofa tired again, and even her voice became weaker:

"After rambling on and on for so long, you still didn't say what you were looking for—if you don't tell a story that can make me feel better, I'll put you back in the orb and give it to Yuxia right now."

"Don't, don't, don't! We originally wanted to share our discoveries with the eldest sister! Of course, as a friendly colleague, Lu Xiqing, please listen to it."

After waving his hands flatteringly, Xia Li looked around and solemnly lowered his voice:

"Before I talk about our super discovery, I have a question for you two—"

"—Have you heard the legend of the [God-given document]?"
