Chapter 821 The Secretary is Here
Sora and Paimon's journey to find the Narcissus Cross Society wasn't going smoothly either.
Sora: "Navia said that the members of the Narcissus Cross Society at the time were all celebrities. Based on realistic considerations, the society should be located near Fontaine."
Fontaine is the most important and prosperous city in Fontaine, where most celebrities gather.
Hundreds of years ago, there were neither tracking ships nor airships in Fontaine. Since those people were able to join the association and participate in activities, the association must be located not too far away.
Paimon: "What Kong said makes sense, but we haven't found anything yet. The area is too large and the sea is too deep."
Who knows how many things are hidden in the deep trenches, and there may be additional secrets hidden under those buried ruins.
Su: "Maybe they have some special methods? This kind of evil group always needs to use some skills and means to seduce the rich."
Sora looked thoughtful. "How about teleporting? That would expand the search area to cover the entire Fontaineland."
Su rolled in the seawater, "No, no! I refuse to work overtime! I refuse to work overtime!"
Paimon: "It feels like we've been busy for a long time. Let's go back to land and rest for a while."
Sora: "...It's such a huge workload. I had no intention of starting now."
The traveler team reached a consensus. After saying goodbye to Wuwu Grape and Zongzi Puff Beast, the three of them returned to the shore together.
Shortly after entering Fontaine from outside the city, the well-informed Navia and her two men in black suits rushed over after hearing the news.
Navia smiled brightly and waved, "Great! You're finally back."
Paimon: "Finally? We were just out on a mission for a day."
Navia said in surprise: "But you have been gone for a week!"
Su showed a puzzled expression, but Kong couldn't help but cover his face, "So we have been circulating in Narcissus Cross Court for so long."
Navia had no intention of exploring the secrets of the Traveler Team, so she took the initiative to change the subject, "Someone has been looking for you. Let's go back to the Thorn Rose Society's base and rest for a while."
The sky gradually became dark, and the wind brought fine rain.
Navia opened her umbrella and held it over Su's head, while Myles and Silver also took out two large black umbrellas to cover Sora and Paimon.
Navia: "It's going to rain again. The weather in Fontaine always changes so suddenly."
Su looked up at Navia's gorgeous umbrella and asked, "Isn't this kind of umbrella only for sun protection?"
Navia: "Although the umbrella looks like velvet, it's actually specially treated to block both the sun and the rain. Well... it has a little special function."
The rain shower came and went quickly. After the rain stopped, Navia took the initiative to hand the important umbrella to the curious girl.
As soon as Su took it, he realized something was wrong. Not only was Navia's umbrella unexpectedly heavy, but it also had a trigger installed on one side.
Su twisted the umbrella handle a few more times. With a light "click" sound, the umbrella handle slid down, revealing a sharp sword edge - there was a sword hidden in the umbrella!
Navia: "The ribs are made of a special alloy, and together with the umbrella, they can withstand a certain amount of impact."
"So it can also be used as a shield?" Su felt that this umbrella was much more useful than the brocade umbrella Xingqiu gave him!
"That's right!" Navia nodded, "But it can only block small-caliber gun bullets. This kind of rifle bullet is not enough."
Sue: "Can I fire a couple of shots for fun?"
Navia showed an embarrassment, "Well... opening fire in the city will attract the security agencies." Then a series of troubles will follow.
"I have a way!" Su quickly walked behind a few Fatui who were passing by, raised his umbrella and fired a shot into the sky.
"boom--!"
Golden rock elemental bullets scattered everywhere, and the people on the street were silent for a second before they screamed and hid in the nearest shops.
A team of security guards rushed over here with weapons. The Fatui who were blamed only had time to take a look at the familiar girl before quickly fleeing into the wild.
Navia was surprised. "How could a security agency equipped with a highly sensitive monitoring system choose the wrong suspect?"
Su said he had mastered the security agency's internal protocols. "The security agency pursues the shooter based on the smoke signal."
Sora added, "And elemental bullets don't react with smoke."
He also saw the small fireworks version of the mini-bouncing bomb that Su threw at the Fatui. This was why the security agency ignored the real mastermind and chose to hunt down the Fatui.
Paimon concluded, "In short, it's easy for Su to trick the Fatui."
The Fatui have long been accustomed to being kicked by Su Luguo and no longer ask "why".
"Ahahaha..." Navia could hardly help but sympathize with the Fatui.
After playing with the gorgeous umbrella for a while, Su returned the umbrella to Navia to satisfy his curiosity. The group also approached the Thorn Rose Society's base in Gray River.
Paimon: "By the way, Navia, you said before that someone was looking for us, who is it?"
"It's me," a female scholar wearing the classic Xumi scholar robes stepped out, "Greatest Sage, Flower Knight, and Paimon. I know you'll be able to handle this with your abilities, but I'm glad to see you're all safe."
"Lord Paimon or something... I always feel a little embarrassed when I hear it, hehe~" Paimon greeted the other party with a smile, "Long time no see, Sheila, are you also coming to Fontaine for vacation?"
Sheila did not come to Fontaine for vacation. As a secretary assisting the greatest sage in handling foreign affairs, she came to Fontaine on official business.
Sheila took out a thick stack of documents and reported her work progress to Su.
"After receiving the news that you were attacked, Xumi's staff in Fontaine immediately began collecting evidence and notified the Xumi headquarters."
Then she immediately led her team from Xumi to Fontainebleau. During the voyage, she sorted out the situation and held a team meeting to communicate, and made multiple plans for the upcoming lawsuit.
Afterwards, we directly contacted the Fontainebleau officials and started an extremely inefficient double-peak meeting.
Su was distracted for a moment, and Kong gently pulled his hand twice. When he came back to his senses, he heard Sheila's summary.
Sheila: "The first batch of compensation of 300 million Mora was advanced by the Fontaine government and has now been deposited into your bank account. We are working on the subsequent compensation settlement and..."
Su emphasized the point, "I want the execution of the prisoner... the right to dispose of him."
Sheila: "...and the power you desire to dispose of the prisoners."
Su nodded with satisfaction, "Not bad! It's worthy of being the logistics chosen by Naxi Rabbit for me."
Silla smiled and saluted, "You are too kind. Thank you and Lord Grass God for your trust."
After Su found out how many people were in Xila's team, he said straightforwardly, "Fifteen percent of the subsequent recovery will be given to you as a travel allowance, and you will take five percent personally."
Sheila's smile was more genuine.
Your efforts and contributions will be noticed by your boss, who will be generous with praise and rewards.
It was indeed the perfect job that she had fought hard for among a large number of talented people!
