MTL - Cataclysm King-Chapter 158 third mysterious letter

  Chapter 158 The third mysterious letter

  Ji Xun and Dong Qi are both temperamental, and there is no extra emotion of arrogance and tweaking.

   After being happy, the two returned to their old way of getting along, doing their own things.

   They didn't go out, so they stayed in the room quietly.

   One studies mechanical blueprints, and the other stabilizes the advanced state of the extraordinary.

  Lion City is the territory of the Lionheart family, which is the territory of the enemy.

  Before "1981 Titan Research Institute" was cleared, now there must be a large wave of people frantically looking for people who cleared the level in every corner of the city.

  But because of the thirty people who entered the different-dimensional space, only Ji Xun survived.

   The other party could not find any useful clues.

   As for the hunter union.

  The two of them had already dealt with all the troubles when they signed up, so it wasn't a big problem.

   Moreover, there is a cover of Baron Charlie's identity that can be traced, so there is a high probability that they will not be found in trouble.

  The two stayed like this for another day and night.

  The next day, after lunch.

  Ji Xun was still flipping through the classics while meditating.

   However, looking at it, his expression suddenly changed, as if he had sensed some kind of summoning from somewhere.

   This feeling has come twice.

very familiar.

  Ji Xun knew what was going to happen, so he looked at the exquisite bookmark.

  If not, after focusing for a while, the text left on the bookmark last time began to gradually collapse.

Then a new line of text appeared: "Mr. Chaoyang? I'm sorry, I didn't help you last time. Later, I went to consult other teachers, and they still have no better way to deal with your mental distortion. I I don't know if you are well. Oh, fate will definitely take care of you."

   Ji Xun smiled slightly when he saw this.

  If it wasn't for the letter from this mysterious pen pal, he really couldn't think of a way to go undercover in the Silver Moon Sect.

   This one helped him a lot.

  The text in front of it is generally all kinds of apologies and concerns.

   Ji Xun continued to read.

The text on the letterhead continued to surface: "I'm sorry that this letter may bother you. But I have encountered another problem that bothers me. I can't tell anyone about this problem, so I have to write a letter to tell you. Oh, forgive me for being a bit confused. The thing is like this, after the coming-of-age ceremony, I won the first place in the family assessment. Then...then there are many... people who come to propose marriage. You should understand this kind of trouble, right?"

  Ji Xun saw this, and roughly guessed what was going to be written later.

  According to what was exchanged in the previous letter, this Miss Yu should have been born in a very wealthy family.

  She won the first place in the assessment.

   This is likely to involve family inheritance rights or something.

  With regard to the current aristocratic centralized system of the Federation, marriage is inevitable.

   Especially women.

Sure enough, the following text reads: "Mother said that the elders of the family have already discussed and decided that I will be engaged in two months. I will marry a young master of a big noble family. But... I haven't even met that person. My good friend helped me find out, that is a flirtatious, and a lot of diseases. Bad guy. My mother loves me very much, she knows I don't like it, but she also said that this is the duty of a female member of the family. To be able to marry High noble, it is already my best life. Sorry, I don’t know what to express. I just feel very unhappy. Father, even my dearest grandpa. They also said that I should obey the arrangement of the clan, so Only then will the family grow stronger. This confuses me. Maybe, as everyone said, I should agree with this arrangement and live a lifetime? But the more I think about the future, I feel very, very unhappy. I think Ask Mr. Chaoyang, do you think so too?"

  This is the end of the notes on the letterhead.

  Ji Xun read every word carefully.

  I also felt a lingering melancholy and confusion from between the lines.

   That mysterious pen pal is very unhappy.

As if the clown had committed an occupational disease, Ji Xun thought about it, picked up the pen decisively, and wrote a reply in a smooth and smooth manner: "Oh no, Miss Yu, your previous guidance allowed me to find some special methods. My current mental distortion has been eliminated. Suppressed. Thank you very much. As for your question, I am not in your situation and cannot fully understand your troubles. But I can share my shallow view on this kind of thing.”

He went on to write: "In my opinion, 'Love is voluntary, no regrets' is the best attitude towards feelings. It is also the attitude towards one's own life. Life is short and fragile, and we must be brave to pursue freedom and respect My own inner choice. From the beginning to the end, life is blooming for myself, not for others. This is the meaning of life I understand. If it were me, I would definitely choose the life I like. I wish you a happy heart Live every day of your life."

  Ji Xun didn't talk about the benefits of family marriage to the family.

  In his eyes, life and death are not the most important, let alone other things.

  Since the other party asked, he also expressed his true opinion.

  Ji Xun didn't think much about it.

  A young girl's emotional problems, he can only talk about his own thoughts.

   Apart from writing a few innocuous words, it can't help anything else.

  Writing this, he suddenly had a thought, since all the letters have come, why don't you just ask more?

  This kind of one-way letter opportunity is rare.

   Last time, this guy helped him solve the problem of mental distortion.

   Now I just encountered a new problem.

"Miss Yu, I also have a new puzzle to ask for advice. That is, I encountered some troubles when advancing to the third-level card master. I practice multi-element breathing method, and it will be very difficult to comprehend my own 'curse seal' ,do you have any good advice"

  Although he has just entered the second level, Ji Xun has to think about this issue in advance.

  If you want to enter the third level, you must understand the "curse seal".

   This is a test of the card master's understanding of the rules, not just a matter of attribute data.

  Many card masters have been stuck in this bottleneck all their lives.

   Moreover, Ji Xun's learning is a multi-element breathing method. Theoretically, this threshold will be many times higher than others.

  He didn't think he would make it through.

   At least for a long time in the future, he feels that he has no clue.

  Since I encountered it, I simply asked it once.

   After all, judging from the information exchanged, although the mysterious pen pal doesn't seem to be very good himself.

  But the level of resources that the family behind her can access is very high.

  Maybe there will be some special surprises just like the previous spiritual mystery.

   After Ji Xun finished writing the letter, he didn't take this kind of reply to his heart.

   Once again, the letterhead got stuck in the classics.

  He continued to meditate and read the classics.

   Coincidentally, looking at Ji Xun, he thought of something, and took out the [Silver Moon Mirror] as usual to check it.

   After all, he still has an identity as an undercover agent of the Silver Moon Sect, so he must always pay attention to the news from the leader.

  There is no movement on weekdays.

   But when I took it out today, there was a devil whispering in the mirror.

  Ji Xun frowned, picked it up skillfully, and deciphered some information: "Tomorrow night, the lion heart family dance party, welcome."

"What does this mean?"

  Ji Xun couldn't fully decipher those demon whispers.

   But I also guessed from the fragmentary information that the Silver Moon Sect is going to do something.

   "The people from Bureau X haven't settled yet?"

  Ji Xun didn't know what was going on, but he was going to have a look.

   It happened that he also wanted to meet Xie Guozhong.

  The life of aristocrats has always been unpretentious and extravagant.

  In addition to the dance party, every day is a dinner party for various reasons.

  Ji is now using the disguised identity of Baron Charlie, and has been receiving various invitations every day recently.

  Before he wanted to advance, he was not interested in wasting time on those useless interactions.

  But now that I have received a secret order from the leader of Silver Moon, I will naturally go there.

  He was also curious about what actions those old believers were going to do.

  The next day, seven o'clock in the evening.

  Ji Xun went out.

  Lion City has now begun to take shape, and there are already several two-way main roads running through the north and south in the wall.

  The headquarters of the Lionheart family is at the crossroads in the center of the city, in the building with the golden lion flag hanging in front of the door.

  Ji Xun changed into a handsome suit, and drove to the front of the building.

  He is already very familiar with the process of noble banquets.

  Led by the servant, he took the elevator to the seventh floor.

  This is the banquet hall. When Ji Xun came here, there were already many well-dressed gentlemen and ladies, as well as young and beautiful noble ladies.

  The band is playing brisk music, and the lighting is soft and ambiguous.

  Familiar high society ballroom dance atmosphere.

   Baron Charlie is already well-known in Innocence City. When Ji Xun came here, he met many acquaintances along the way.

   Greeted politely, he walked to the self-service snack counter, eating dessert with great interest.

  Before, he was keen on socializing in the upper class because he wanted to join the Silver Moon Sect.

   Now that the goal has been achieved, it is better to keep a low profile.

   After all, I just cheated the Lionheart family in the 1981 space.

   I have to say that these nobles really know how to enjoy life.

   As far as food is concerned, this buffet is a delicacy that may not be seen in civilian recipes in a lifetime.

  The taste is also worth mentioning.

  Ji Xun ate and drank in the corner from time to time, and looked around.

  He also wanted to see if the leader of Yinyue had come.

   But before the leader of Yinyue arrived, a strong man quietly hid in the shadow of the pillar.

  Xie Guozhong's voice came from next to his ear: "You kid. Why are you getting involved with the Revolutionary Army again?"

  In the last battle of Honglou, Qin, the deputy leader of the Revolutionary Army "Valkyrie" appeared.

  As soon as the news came out, it shocked the entire federal leadership.

  As the ace agent of Bureau X, naturally he had to investigate immediately.

  Although there are hidden dragons and crouching tigers in the city of innocence, it is not easy to meet legendary powerhouses.

  Thinking about the mysterious person who shot Governor Cao Yu when he was killed, it is not difficult for Xie Guozhong to guess that it was that person.

  After investigating the various interpersonal relationships of Hong Lou's senior management, he was even more certain.

  The informant said that a guy close to Miss Hong Lou, Dong Qi, has haunted Hong Lou many times recently.

  He knew it was this guy.

  Ji Xun felt a little helpless when he heard it, and said, "I have nothing to do with the Revolutionary Army. That's how I found out about that person's identity."

  He didn't think Xie Guozhong was here to make trouble for him.

   Said it casually.

  If not, Xie Guozhong believed it immediately after hearing it, and just complained: "Why do you feel that there will always be big troubles around you?"

  Ji Xun smiled and said nothing, and replied in his heart: Probably because of the 'bad luck gambler'?

  He didn't respond, and said again: "However, what's the situation over there? There is definite news tonight, and there will be actions within the Silver Moon Sect."

  Xie Guozhong was also a little surprised when he heard it, "Are there any actions tonight?"

  Ji Xundao: "Yes. But I don't know what they are going to do. They just let me respond. I think. Maybe they want to steal something? Or assassinate?"

  He had thought about it before he came, since the leader of Yinyue asked him to respond, he must not be interested in his combat power.

   After all, it is impossible to force this lion heart family headquarters.

   If he doesn't fight, there is a high probability that he is trying to use his identity as "Baron Charlie" to cover up something.

"Um."

Xie Guozhong listened and nodded, pondered for a moment, and then said: "After the destruction of Honglou, the situation in Innocence City has become more and more complicated recently. Not only the Silver Moon Sect, but also some remnants of other old **** sects have also emerged. Oh , um, do you have any news about your friend of the Oran remnants?"

  Ji Xun knew that he was talking about the ninth day of junior high school, and asked, "No. What's wrong?"

  Xie Guozhong said: "There is news that the remnants of the old era have been active recently, and it is said that some internal problems have occurred within them. The new king seems to be planning some very dangerous big move."

  New king?

  The ninth brother in name?

  Ji Xun heard from Nan Jing before that he knew that the king of Oran survivors had been critically ill for a long time, and it is normal for him to die now.

   But he didn't sound worried at all.

   The turmoil at this level should be worried about the high-level federal officials, and it has nothing to do with him, a brat.

  On the contrary, he thought it would be better if it was lively.

At this time, Xie Guozhong thought of something, and reminded him: "Also, the Cao family has recently personally sent people to investigate the assassination of two innocent city lords. It is said that a very powerful detective came from Dragon City. Be careful yourself."

"Um."

  Ji Xun heard that he had something to do with him, so he felt a sense of crisis.

  The dinner is an ordinary noble dinner.

  The Lionheart family entertained these "heroes" who actively built the new city.

   It is also a resource exchange gathering for the upper class.

  The whole process is eating, drinking, dancing, and talking about business.

   Baron Charlie had no resources and nothing to communicate with, so Ji Xun pretended to wander among the crowd for a while, and then sat and drank in the rest area.

  He also scanned everyone here.    He still has to wait for the order from the leader of Silver Moon.

   However, before waiting for the order, an acquaintance came to the rest area.

  Caterina, who was wearing a wine-red evening dress, entered the banquet hall and saw Ji Xun at a glance.

  She lost interest in those interactions now, and after thinking about it, she walked to the rest area.

  Looking at Ji Xun, Katerina took the initiative to say hello: "Hey, Baron Charlie, long time no see."

  Ji Xun also stood up in a gentlemanly manner, and performed a breast protection salute, "Beautiful Miss Carter, long time no see."

   After Katerina knew that the guy in front of her was from Agency X, she became less wary.

  She folded her skirt, sat gracefully on the sofa, and asked casually, "Is there a mission?"

  Ji Xun smiled noncommittally: "What if...I mean, you came here to see Miss Carter?"

"oh?"

  Caterina would naturally not take it seriously.

  There was a half-smile on her pretty face, and she turned to say: "Your cousin 'Sophia' disappeared. I thought you would disappear too."

  “.”

   Ji Xun was not surprised to hear this.

  Xie Guozhong has already mentioned this situation before.

   Once Sophia is exposed, his identity as Baron Charlie will also be exposed immediately.

  But she only received news from the leader of Silver Moon before, that is to say, she did not use the identity of "Sophia" to cause trouble, but had a better plan.

  Now Ji Xun only thinks of one possibility, that is, the one who uses her "Moon with Thousand Faces" ability to transform into anyone present.

  Thoughts flashed through Ji Xun's mind, but Ji Xun's expression remained unchanged, but he changed the topic: "How about Miss Carter's engagement?"

  Hearing this, Katerina's crystal eyes flashed strangely, and after a moment of silence, she said lightly, "It's not that good."

  Ji Xunben was just asking casually, and didn't want to delve into it.

  But I didn’t think about it. When this topic was mentioned, Katerina seemed to think of something, and suddenly said: "Can I ask you a very presumptuous question?"

  Ji Xundao: "Miss Carter is too polite. It is my honor that you are willing to share."

   Katerina said lightly: "I don't really want to get married now. Do you have any good suggestions?"

   She couldn't say such words to anyone around her.

   I don't know why, but when she saw this guy, she remembered the scene where they went to the roof together in Rose Manor last time.

   Without thinking about it, I just brought up this topic casually.

  Ji Xun listened with a chuckle and said, "Because you don't like political marriage?"

  Hearing this, he couldn't help but think of the mysterious pen pal who wrote the letter yesterday.

   Do these noble ladies have these troubles?

  Katerina said: "Almost. I have no expectations for that kind of engagement."

  Fate is fluctuating.

  The [Fate Gold Coin] divination suggested that her choice was correct.

   But now, it is not so sure.

  Fate seems to have changed, and the gold coins often point to unknown.

   She was rarely confused.

  Ji Xun didn't want to talk too much on this topic, and responded to his point of view again: "Love is voluntary, and there is no regret."

"Um?"

   A simple sentence, Katerina didn't think much of it.

  But after thinking about it for a moment, a thoughtful look gradually appeared in the crystal eyes.

  And the more I think about it, the more I feel that these words have completely answered my doubts.

  Isn’t my confusion just because I’m afraid of regretting it?

   Sure enough, I asked the right person.

  She glanced at Ji Xun, with a hint of surprise hidden in her eyes, and said with a chuckle, "Thank you, Baron Charlie, for your clarification."

"where."

   Ji Xunben just dealt with a few words casually.

He just responded with a smile, but suddenly, a familiar female voice came from beside his ear: "In two minutes, someone will hide something in the flower bed of the third wall pillar in the southeast, you must take it out .”

   Leader of Silver Moon!

   Did you really come to steal something?

  Ji Xun heard this spiritual transmission, and immediately knew who it was.

  He also didn't take any action to search for the source of the communication.

  But the moment her eyes froze, Katerina seemed to have discovered something, "What's wrong?"

  Ji Xun stood up, bowed and stretched out his hand and said, "I'm wondering if it's an honor to invite Miss Carter to dance again?"

   Katerina glanced at him and readily agreed: "Okay."

  Before I knew it, it seemed like I was dancing with this guy for the third time.

   There seems to be no reason to refuse.

  Ji Xun took the slender hand into his palm, but he had already calculated the time and distance in an instant.

  Two minutes, the flower bed is fifty-two meters away.

  Ji Xun did not show any abnormalities during the whole process, but kept counting down in his heart.

  Two minutes is not long, a dance only danced a few beats.

  The two have danced several times and are not strangers.

   While dancing, Ji Xun observed the entire banquet hall from the corner of his eye, and took the lady to the predetermined direction by the way.

   Almost on time, he watched a security guard in a suit enter the house.

  The path that guy walked passed the third wall post in the southeast!

  He didn't stop, and went straight to the window glass.

   Ji Xun focused his attention on his surroundings, and he also noticed that after this guy came in, there were dense footsteps outside.

   "Surrounded?"

  Ji Xun already guessed something in his heart.

   This guy seemed to have stolen something and was immediately discovered. Knowing that he couldn't escape, he left his things in the banquet hall and let himself take them out.

   There is nothing wrong with this plan.

   Before he had time to think about it, a group of people in black suits rushed in.

  Katerina also noticed the abnormality, and her expression was slightly different.

  The guy before didn't dare to stay any longer. Before everyone could react, he slammed into the glass.

   "Kang Dang!"

   The window glass in the banquet hall was smashed, and the guy jumped off the building.

  Almost at the same time, more than a dozen guards of the Lionheart family also rushed out.

   This movement was not small, and the banquet hall panicked for a moment.

  Ji Xun saw this, took advantage of the moment when everyone's eyes were drawn to him, he happened to be dancing at the edge of the flower stage, and quietly picked up the thing and stuffed it into his cuff.

   Good stuff that can’t be put into storage rings.

  Everyone was confused by the scene in front of them.

   No one knows what happened.

  Jane, a middle-aged man in charge, explained that he was "catching the thief" to appease him, but it didn't cause any major panic.

   On the contrary, Katerina seemed to have guessed something, and raised her eyebrows slightly, but she didn't take it seriously.

   After all, he is a dance partner, Ji Xun got the things, and the other hand is still holding this one.

  However, he also discovered that it seemed that something very important had been lost. The members of the Lionheart family had surrounded the entire banquet hall.

   Ji Xun also frowned, and muttered in his heart: "It's troublesome."

  Even with the cover of Baron Charlie's identity, if the things lost by the Lionheart family are too important, he doesn't think he can go out safely with them.

  However, when he was thinking about how to take advantage of the chaos and leave.

  Miss Katerina's amazing intuition surprised Ji Xun again.

  She seemed to have guessed something, and asked directly: "Just now you invited me to dance because of that thief?"

  When Ji Xun heard this, the slight tingling feeling in his scalp immediately hit his heart.

  He knew that some of his actions had been discovered.

  The strange thing is that it stands to reason that the eldest lady of the Lionheart family discovered that the situation couldn't be worse.

   But at this moment, he didn't panic at all.

   Instead, there is a thrill of walking on the edge of a knife.

   Some restless thoughts in my heart immediately couldn't hold back.

  Ji Xun didn't quibble, the corners of his mouth gradually raised, and he asked, "How did you find out?"

Katerina motioned to the hand they were still holding, and said calmly: "You are too calm. Normal people would be at least a little surprised by the situation just now. But your heart rate hasn't changed at all. So, I guess you should know something in advance."

   After a pause, she said again: "And I noticed when that guy came in just now. The path he walked coincides with the path we danced here. The timing is too coincidental."

  Ji Xun listened, and praised sincerely: "Miss Carter is worthy of being the 'Silver Mist Rose', and she really lives up to her reputation."

  Who would have nothing to remember the walking route of someone among the hundreds of people in the banquet hall.

  But by chance, this woman noticed.

  This observation, this keen intuition is really worthy of the number one talented woman in Silver Mist City.

   Being found out, Ji Xun was not panicked, but instead had a sense of anticipation that he would meet his opponent and want to play a game.

  Win or lose.

   It's rare to find a bosom friend.

  Ji Xun looked at the pretty and calm face in front of him, the smile on his face became more and more exaggerated and dangerous.

   Katerina raised her eyebrows slightly, and asked calmly: "So, are you going to do something to me? If you kidnap me, you still have a chance to get out alive."

  Ji Xun shook his head with a chuckle.

  He didn't get angry, but leaned over and kissed the back of Carter's hand in a gentlemanly way, and praised her charm: "Such a beautiful lady, how could I be willing to hurt you."

   This appreciation is not only about her appearance, but more about her wisdom.

  He really thought so.

   And the fact is exactly the opposite of what Carter said.

   If you don’t hijack this person, he still has a chance to escape.

   If you are really going to be hijacked, you will definitely die!

"oh?"

  When Katerina heard this, her intuition made her feel that kind of sincere admiration.

  She thought of something, smiled slightly, "Let's go. I'll take you out."

  Ji Xun grinned: "Thank you."

  Katerina looked at him with such a demeanor, and she glanced more and more in her heart, and asked, "Why don't you ask me to help you?"

  In this situation, even if he has the status of Bureau X, it is absolutely impossible to get better if he is caught.

  But in such a situation, this guy is so calm?

   Ji Xun rolled his eyes, and said casually: "There are internal problems in your Lionheart family. It's not easy for me, an outsider, to intervene."

  Katrina chuckled lightly: "You're very smart."

  Ji Xun smiled and said nothing.

  The relationship between the two is nodding acquaintances, and they are not familiar enough to let her sell her family interests to help an outsider.

  The only possibility that this person is willing to help is the conflict of interests within the family.

  The inheritance dispute between the eldest house and the second house of the Anka family has always been bloody, and he has heard it for a long time.

  This Silver Mist Rose is not as weak as she appears on the outside.

   Two smart people don't need to speak too clearly.

Katerina didn't want to say more on this topic, but suddenly thought of something, and said slightly dissatisfied: "Also, if there is another time, can you not invite me to dance with other purposes? You are very rude .”

  Thinking about it, I danced three times, and it was the same every time.

  I seem to be a tool man.

  Ji Xun grinned and replied, "Okay."

  This woman has changed a lot from when she went to Honglou to gamble.

   The two walked out while chatting.

  With this eldest lady escorting them, no one from the Lionheart family dared to stop them.

  Ji Xun also took the things out smoothly.

   Thanks to the book friends of ''130910212158317', 'One Hundred Ways to Spot Men Lying', 'Li Yu Chen Xiang', and 'Di Yin Holy Spirit' for their rewards.
