Chapter 158 The third mysterious letter


Chapter 158 The Third Mysterious Letter

Ji Xun and Dong Qi are both good-natured people, with no superfluous emotions of arrogance and coquettishness.

After having fun, the two returned to their usual way of getting along, each doing their own thing.

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

One studies mechanical blueprints, and the other stabilizes the extraordinary realm after advancement.

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

"1981 Titan Research Institute" was cleared before, and now there must be a large number of people outside looking for people who have cleared the level in every corner of the city.

But because of the thirty people who entered the extradimensional space, only Ji Xun and the two came out alive.

The other party couldn't find any useful clues.

As for the Hunters Guild.

The two of them had already taken care of all the troubles when they signed up, so there wasn't much of a problem.

And with Baron Charlie’s proven identity as a cover, there is a high chance that trouble will not be found on them.

The two of them stayed like this for another day and night.

The next day, after lunch.

Ji Xun was still meditating while flipping through the books he was reading.

However, as he looked at it, his expression suddenly changed, as if he sensed some mysterious call.

This feeling has happened twice.

Very familiar.

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

Sure enough, after paying attention for a moment, the words left on the bookmark began to gradually fall apart.

Then a new line of text appeared: "Mr. Chaoyang? Sorry, I couldn't help you last time. Later I asked other teachers for advice, and they still had no better way to deal with your kind of mental aberration. 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 weren’t for this mysterious pen pal’s letter, he would never have thought of a way to go undercover in the Silver Moon Sect.

This one helped him a lot.

The previous text is generally full of apologies and concerns.

Ji Xun continued to read.

The text on the letterhead continued to appear: "I'm sorry that this letter may bother you. But I have encountered another problem that troubles me. I can't tell anyone about this problem, so I can only write. Let me tell you. Oh, forgive me for being a little confused. The thing is, after the coming-of-age ceremony, I won the first place in the family assessment. Then there were many people coming to propose marriage. You should understand this. Right? "

When Ji Xun saw this, he had roughly guessed what was going to be written next.

According to what was exchanged in the previous letter, this fisherman 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 the federation’s current aristocratic centralized system, marriage is inevitable.

Especially women.

Sure enough, the following text is: "My mother said that the family elders have already discussed and decided that I will be engaged in two months. I want to marry a young master from a big noble family. But... even I I have never seen that person. My good friend helped me find out that he was a womanizer and was infected with many diseases. My mother loved me very much, but she knew that I didn’t like him, but she also said that this was a female member of the family. It's my duty to marry a high-ranking noble. Sorry, I don't know what to say. I just feel very unhappy. My father and even my dearest grandfather said that I should listen. The arrangement in the clan will make the family stronger. This makes me confused. Maybe, as everyone said, I should agree to this arrangement and live my life. But the more I think about the future, I feel very sad. Very unhappy. I would like to ask Mr. Chaoyang, do you think so too?”

That’s the end of the note on the letterhead.

Ji Xun read every word carefully.

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

That mysterious pen pal is very unhappy.

As if the clown was suffering from an occupational disease, Ji Xun thought about it, picked up the pen decisively, and wrote a reply: "Oh no, Miss Yu, your previous advice helped me find some special methods. I The mental aberration has been suppressed now. Thank you very much. As for your question, I am not in your situation and cannot fully understand your troubles, but I can express my superficial opinion on this matter."
He continued to write: "In my opinion, 'Love comes voluntarily, no regrets' is the best attitude towards feelings. It is also the attitude towards your own life. Life is short and fragile, you must be brave to pursue it. Be free and respect your inner choices. From beginning to end, life blooms for yourself, not others. If it were me, I would definitely choose the life I like. Spend every day of your life happily. 》

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 told his true opinion.

Ji Xun didn’t think much about it.

He can only express his own thoughts on the emotional problems of a young girl.

Apart from writing a few words that don't hurt or hurt, there is nothing else that can be done.

Writing this, a thought suddenly flashed in his mind. Since he has already received a letter, why not just ask more?

Opportunities like this one-way correspondence are rare.

This was the one who helped him solve the problem of mental aberration last time.

Now I just encounter a new problem.

"Miss Yu, I also have a new confusion to ask for help. That is, I encountered some problems when I advanced to the third level card master. I practice multi-element breathing method, and it will be very difficult to understand my own 'curse seal' , do you have any good suggestions?"

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

If you want to step into 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 on this bottleneck their entire lives.

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

He didn't think he would be able to make it through.

At least for a long time in the future, he felt that he had no clue at all.

Since I met him, I just asked him once.

After all, judging from the information exchanged, the mysterious pen pal doesn’t seem to be very powerful himself.

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

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

After Ji Xun wrote the letter, he didn't take it to heart that he didn't know when he would expect a reply.

The letter was stuck in the book again.

He continued to meditate and read the classics.

Coincidentally, Ji Xun thought of something and took out the [Silver Moon Mirror] as usual and checked it out.

After all, he also has the identity of being an undercover agent of the Silver Moon Sect, and he must always pay attention to the messages from the leader.

Nothing happens on weekdays.

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

Ji Xun raised his brows, picked it up skillfully and deciphered some information: "The Lion Heart Family Dance tomorrow night, take care of it"

"What does this mean?"

Ji Xun failed to fully decipher those demonic whispers.

But I also guessed from those fragmentary information that the Silver Moon Sect is going to cause trouble.

"The people in Bureau

It happened that he also wanted to meet Xie Guozhong.

The life of aristocrats has always been simple and luxurious.

Besides the dance party every day, there are also dinner parties for various reasons.

Ji is currently using the disguise 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 useless interactions.

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

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

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

Ji Xun went out.

The Lion City is now beginning to take shape, and there are already several two-way main roads running from north to south within 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 took a car to the front of the building.

He is already familiar with the procedures of noble banquets.

Under the guidance of the servant, we took the elevator to the seventh floor.

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

The band played lively music, and the lights were soft and ambiguous.

The familiar upper class social dance atmosphere.

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

After saying hello politely, he walked to the snack buffet and ate the dessert with great interest.

Before, he was keen on socializing with the upper class because he wanted to break into the Silver Moon Sect.

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

After all, I had just deceived 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 full of delicacies that may never be seen in civilian recipes.

There is nothing to say about the taste.

Ji Xun was eating and drinking in the corner from time to time, looking around.

He also wanted to see if the Silver Moon leader was here.

But before the leader of Silver Moon could wait, a strong man quietly hid in the shadow of the pillar.

Xie Guozhong's voice came to my ears: "You kid, why are you involved with the Revolutionary Army again?"

The last battle in Honglou, the deputy leader of the Revolutionary Army "Valkyrie" Qin appears.

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

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

Although there are hidden dragons and crouching tigers in Innocence City, legendary strong men cannot be encountered casually.

Thinking again about the mysterious person who took action when Governor Cao Yu was killed, it was not difficult for Xie Guozhong to guess that it was that person.

After later investigating the various interpersonal relationships among Hong Lou’s senior executives, he became even more certain.

The informant said that there is a guy who is close to Dong Qi, the eldest daughter of Honglou, who has been in Honglou many times recently.

He knew it was this guy.

Ji Xun listened with a somewhat helpless tone and said, "I have nothing to do with the revolutionary army. I only just found out the identity of that person."

He did not think that Xie Guozhong was looking for trouble for him. of.

I said it casually.

Sure enough, Xie Guozhong believed it immediately after hearing this, and just complained: "Why do I feel that there is always big trouble around you?"

Ji Xun smiled and said nothing, and answered in his heart: Probably ' The Bad Luck Gambler's Cause?

He did not respond, and then said: "But, what's the situation on your side? There is definite news tonight, there will be actions within the Silver Moon Sect."

Xie Guozhong also sounded a little nervous. Surprised, "Is there any action tonight?"

Ji Xundao: "Yes. But I don't know what they are going to do. They just asked me to take care of it. I think... maybe they want to steal something? Or maybe Assassination?”

He had thought about it before coming. Since the leader of Silver Moon asked him to take over, he definitely wasn't interested in his combat prowess.

After all, this is the headquarters of the Lion Heart Family, and it is impossible to force it.

If there is no fight, there is a high probability that he is trying to use his identity as "Baron Charlie" to cover something.

"Yes."

Xie Guozhong nodded and pondered for a moment, then said: "After the destruction of Hong Tower, the situation in Innocence City has become more and more complicated recently. It's not just the silver The Moon Sect and some other remnants of the Old God Sect have also appeared. Oh, is there any news about your friend of the Oran remnants?”

Ji Xun knew as soon as he heard that he was talking about the ninth day of the lunar month, 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 there is something going on within them. Some situations. The new king seems to be planning some very dangerous move. "

New king?

The nominal brother Wang on the ninth day of the Lunar New Year?

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

But he didn't sound worried at all.

Those who have to worry about this level of turmoil are the top federal officials, and it has nothing to do with a little guy like him.

On the contrary, he thought it would be better to be more lively.

At this time, Xie Guozhong thought of something and reminded: "Also, the Cao family recently personally sent people to investigate the assassination of the two lords of Innocence City. It is said that a man from Longcheng came Very powerful detective, please be more careful.”

“Yeah.”

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

The dinner is just an ordinary noble dinner.

The Lionheart family entertained these "heroes" who came to actively build 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 little resources and nothing to communicate with, so Ji Xun pretended to wander among the crowd for a while, then sat in the rest area and drank.

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

However, before the order was given, an acquaintance walked into the rest area.

Wearing a burgundy evening dress, Catalina entered the banquet hall and saw Ji Xun at first sight.

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

Looking at Ji Xun, Catalina 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 chest-protecting ceremony, " Beautiful Miss Carter, long time no see.”

After Catalina knew that the guy in front of her was from Bureau X, her attitude became less guarded.

With her skirt closed, she sat elegantly on the sofa and asked casually: "Got a mission?"

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

"Oh?"

Of course Catalina wouldn't take it seriously.

There was a half-smile on her pretty face, and she turned around and said: "Your cousin Sophia is gone. I thought you would disappear too."

" .”

Ji Xun was not surprised when he heard this.

Xie Guozhong has already talked about this situation before.

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

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

Now Ji Xun can only think of one possibility, that is, the person who used her "Thousand-faced Moon" ability to transform into anyone present.

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

Hearing this, Catalina's crystal eyes showed a strange color. There was a flash, and after a moment of silence, he said calmly: "Not very good."

Ji Xun was just asking casually, not wanting to go into details.

However, when this topic was mentioned, Catalina seemed to have thought of something and suddenly said: "Can I ask you a very presumptuous question?"

Ji Xundao: "Ms. Carter is so kind. It is my honor that you are willing to share."

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

She couldn't say this to anyone around her.

For some reason, when she saw this guy, she remembered the scene when they went to the rooftop together at Rose Manor last time.

I mentioned this topic casually without thinking too much about it.

Ji Xun listened and chuckled: "Because you don't like political marriage?"

When he heard this, he couldn't help but think of the mysterious pen pal he had written to just yesterday.

Do these noble ladies have these troubles?

Katrina said: "Pretty much. I have no expectations at all for that kind of engagement."

Fate fluctuates.

Previously, the [Destiny Gold Coin] divination reminded her that her choice was right.

But now, it's not so sure.

Something seems to have changed in fate, and gold coins often point to unknown directions.

She was rarely confused.

Ji Xun didn't want to talk more on this topic, and responded to his own point of view again: "Love comes out of your own free will, and you have no regrets."

"Huh?"


In a simple sentence, Catalina didn't think anything about it.

But after thinking about it for a moment, a thoughtful look gradually appeared in Jingyan's eyes.

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

Isn’t my confusion just the fear of regret?

Sure enough, you 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 clarifying my doubts."

"Where."

Ji Xun was just answering a few words casually.

Just as he responded with a smile, suddenly, a familiar female voice came to his ears: "In two minutes, someone will hide something in the flower bed on the third wall pillar in the southeast. You must take it out.”

Chief Silver Moon!

Are you really here to steal something?

When Ji Xun heard this spiritual message, he immediately knew who it was.

He also made no move to search for the source of the subpoena.

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

Ji Xun stood up, bowed and stretched out his hand: "I I was wondering if it would be an honor to invite Miss Carter to dance again.”

Catalina glanced at him and agreed happily: "Okay."

Unconsciously, it seemed like she was dancing with this guy for the third time.

There seems to be no reason to refuse.

Ji Xun took advantage of the situation and took the delicate hand into his palm, but he had already calculated the time and distance in his heart instantly.

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

Ji Xun didn't show any abnormality during the whole process, but he kept counting down in his mind.

Two minutes is not a long time. A dance only lasts a few beats.

The two have danced several times and are not strangers.

While jumping, Ji Xun observed the entire banquet hall with his peripheral vision, and took the young lady to the intended direction.

Almost on time, he watched a security guard in a suit walk into the room.

The guy followed the path and passed the third wall pillar in the southeast!

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

Ji Xun paid close attention to his surroundings. He also noticed that after this guy came in, there were dense footsteps outside.

"Surrounded?"

Ji Xun had already guessed in his mind.

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

There is nothing wrong with this plan.

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

Katrina also noticed something unusual and her expression was slightly different.

The guy before did not dare to stop. Before anyone could react, he rushed towards the glass and slammed into it.

"Bang!"

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

Almost at the same time, a dozen guards from the Lionheart family also rushed out.

This movement was quite big, and the banquet hall was in panic for a moment.

When Ji Xun saw this, he took advantage of the moment when everyone's eyes were attracted to him. He happened to be dancing next to the flower stage, so he calmly picked up the thing and stuffed it. Into the cuff.

What a good thing that can’t be put in a storage ring.

Everyone was confused by the scene before them.

No one knows what happened.

Jian, a middle-aged man who looked like a manager, explained that his words of comfort were to "catch the thief", but it did not cause any big panic.

Katrina seemed to have guessed something. She raised her eyebrows slightly, but she didn't take it seriously.

After all, they were dance partners. Ji Xun got the things and was still holding this person's other hand.

However, he also discovered that something very important seemed to have been lost. People from the Lionheart family had surrounded the entire banquet hall.

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

Even with the identity of Baron Charlie to cover up, if the things lost by the Lionheart family are too important , and he didn’t feel like he could go out safely with his things.

However, just as he was thinking about how to leave in the chaos.

Miss Catalina's amazing intuition once again surprised Ji Xun.

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, his scalp felt slightly numb. It hit me immediately.

He knew that some of his actions had been discovered.

The strange thing is that it stands to reason that after being discovered by the eldest lady of the Lionheart family, the situation could not be worse.

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

On the contrary, there is an exciting feeling of walking on the blade.

Some of the restless thoughts in my heart could no longer be restrained.

Ji Xun did not quibble, and the corner of his mouth gradually raised, and asked: "How did you find out?"

Katrina gestured to the hand that the two were still holding, very calmly He said: "You are too calm. In the situation just now, a normal person would be at least a little surprised. But your heart rate has not changed at all. So, I guess you should know something in advance."

After a pause, she added: "And I noticed that guy just now when he came in. The path he took happened to coincide with the path we danced on. The timing is too coincidental."
< br>Ji Xun listened and sincerely praised: "Miss Carter is indeed the 'Silver Mist Rose', and she is truly worthy of her reputation."

Who would have no trouble memorizing the walking route of someone among the hundreds of people in the banquet hall.

But by chance, this woman paid attention.

This ability of observation and keen intuition are truly worthy of being the most talented woman in Silver Mist City.

After being discovered, Ji Xun not only did not panic, but also felt a sense of anticipation that he would meet his opponent and want to play a game.

Winning or losing.

It’s hard to find a good 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.

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

Ji Xun chuckled and shook his head.

He did not get violent. Instead, he leaned over and kissed the back of Carter's hand in a gentlemanly manner, praising her charm: "Such a beautiful lady, how could I be willing to hurt you."

This appreciation is not only about her appearance, but also about her intelligence.

He did think so.

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

If he doesn't kidnap this guy, he still has a chance to escape.

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

“Oh?”

When Catalina heard this, her intuition made her feel that kind of heartfelt admiration.

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

Ji Xun grinned: "Thank you."

Looking at his expression, Catalina took a higher look in her heart and asked: "Why don't you ask me why I helped you?"

In this situation, even if he has the status of Bureau X, he will definitely not be able to recover if he is caught.

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

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

Catalina chuckled upon hearing this: "You are very smart."

Ji Xun smiled and said nothing.

The relationship between the two is just a nod, and they are not familiar enough to let her betray her family's interests to help an outsider.

The only reason why this person is willing to help is because of the conflict of interests within the family.

The inheritance battle between the eldest and second eldest son of Lionheart has always been bloody, and he has heard about it for a long time.

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

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

Katrina didn't want to say much 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 so rude."

This is the case every time during the three dances.

I seem to be a tool man.

Ji Xun grinned and replied: "Okay."

This woman has changed too much from when she went to Honglou to gamble and fight.

The two walked out while chatting.

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

Ji Xun also took the things out smoothly.

Thanks to "130910212158317", "One Hundred Ways to Discover Men's Lies", "Liyu Chenxiang" and "Emperor's Seal Holy Spirit" for their rewards.
