Chapter 596 Yelan's New Mission
Yelan didn't tell anyone about Battōsai and the instructor, and even Ningguang didn't know about it.
She knew that as an intelligence agent, this kind of thing was taboo.
If the instructor takes advantage of this information gap to do something irreparable to Liyue, it will be fatal.
How should I put it... maybe she was a little lucky.
First of all, since the instructor dared to reveal his identity in front of her, it meant that he had given up his identity as Battousai. After all, they both knew each other's identities well.
Secondly, through this period of contact, she could see some of Bai Luo's character.
Maybe a little worse, but it can't be said to be completely bad.
You can even use the word "prank" to describe it. I believe he won't do anything too big.
Finally, and most importantly.
In fact, until now, she is still thinking about one thing: Are Battousai and the instructor really the same person?
Even though Bai Luo had transformed into Battousai in front of her, who could guarantee whether this was some small trick?
She had seen similar methods before when she was doing missions in foreign countries.
Before the investigation was clear, she still had some doubts about the fact that the instructor and Battosai were the same person.
Telling her employer information that she is not sure of is something that damages her moral character and goes against her professionalism. She might even lose her employer's trust.
So she chose to hide it.
"It seems your situation is better than I thought."
Looking at Ye Lan slowly walking back from the suburbs with two hares with arrows stuck in their bodies, Ning Guang's originally worried expression improved a lot.
At least she didn't shut herself up in the house like Ning Guang imagined.
"I guess my vacation isn't over yet?"
Holding the hare in her hand, Ye Lan asked aloud.
After the last incident ended, Ningguang took the initiative to give her a holiday, perhaps because he saw something was wrong with Yelan's situation.
She didn't expect that the other party would find her again so quickly.
"Let's have a drink together?"
He raised the food box in his hand and said Ningguang.
This high-end food box decorated with exquisite patterns can be seen at first glance as the representative of Ricai - the craftsmanship of Ruri Ting.
"Say inside the house."
Ye Lan took out the key, opened the door, and made a gesture of invitation.
To be honest, when it comes to eating, two people may not be able to eat together.
Yelan's favorite taste is spicy, and she can even use Jueyun pepper as her staple food.
Ningguang is different. The food she likes is very simple, which is just boiled cabbage. She really doesn't like food with too strong flavor.
Therefore... this so-called dinner party is just an excuse for the two of them to talk.
"The Fairy Ceremony is approaching, but you still have time to come to me. What happened?"
Ye Lan asked aloud while playing with the prepared rabbit on the grill.
Ye Lan knows better than anyone how important the annual Immortal Invitation Ceremony is. And this year's Immortal Invitation Ceremony happened to be Ningguang's turn to host it. She actually came to her at this time. There was definitely something wrong with her.
matter.
"Yeah, it's not a big deal."
In front of the delicious wine, Ningguang had no intention of drinking it, but instead showed a wry smile.
As the Tianquan Star of the Seven Stars of Liyue, only a few people can see her expression like this.
Originally, there was a scourge of instructors in Liyue Port, but recently the lady next door also came over. From the looks of it...she was just shopping in the Liyue market and didn't do much out of the ordinary.
But Ningguang couldn't just sit back and watch.
Two fools and a group of executives gathered in Liyue Port during such a sensitive period. Even if they did nothing, they would muddy the waters.
In addition, news came from my subordinates that a traveler who had recently become famous in Mondstadt appeared at the Wangshu Inn. It seems that her goal is to invite the immortal ceremony.
Ningguang has a hunch that something big will happen to this year's Immortal Invitation Ceremony.
"In other words, it's my turn to take action again?"
Ye Lan paused while smearing the sauce on the hare, then looked at Ning Guang.
She wasn't surprised at all.
As Ning Guang's special intelligence officer, she sees Liyue's current situation more clearly than anyone else.
In fact, even if Ning Guang didn't find her, she would make corresponding arrangements to ensure that those uninvited guests would not cause trouble in Liyue.
"I will try my best to deal with the strangers from neighboring countries, the witch of fire who comes to the solstice, and those who try to fish in troubled waters."
The seven stars and eight gates of the Liyue General Affairs Department can be said to control all walks of life in Liyue, so they know everything about the situation no matter where it is.
The meaning of Yelan's existence is to collect information that is inconvenient for Liyue Seven Stars officials to collect, and to do things that are inconvenient for them to do.
However, Ye Lan seemed to have noticed something from Ning Guang's words.
"Do you want me to..."
What Ning Guang said just now can be said to have included all the people who might cause trouble in Liyue now, but there was only one missing.
instructor.
"For some reason, Liyue officials cannot carry out any tasks such as surveillance, investigation, and assassination on the execution officers and instructors of the Fools recently, so I have no choice but to find you."
As mentioned before, Ye Lan has no official registration in Liyue. She is an intelligence officer directly subordinate to Ning Guang, and the relationship between the two is similar to that of employment.
If she came to Bai Luo, Ningguang would not be considered as disobeying Emperor Yan Wang's order.
But considering Yelan's recent feud with her instructor, she hesitated for a long time before approaching him.
"Don't worry, even if you don't want to, I won't force you."
This is true. There is no need for her to force Ye Lan to do things she doesn't like.
What's more, the emperor has already told her that he will solve Bai Luo's matter by himself.
Ning Guang asked Ye Lan to investigate Bai Luo, mostly because she wanted to have some knowledge in her mind so that she wouldn't get a black eye if something really happened.
"Can."
Sprinkling the level of chili powder considered fatal to outsiders on the roasted rabbit, Ye Lan agreed to Ning Guang's request without much hesitation.
And he agreed very calmly.
There was no question or anger, just like a good sister asked her to go shopping together, and she casually agreed.
This actually surprised Ning Guang.
But she soon felt relieved.
If things go as she expected and Battousai died at the hands of the instructor, then Yelan, who has regarded Battousai as a partner, will definitely regard the instructor as a mortal enemy.
As she had warned him before, Ye Lan would certainly not rush to the instructor for revenge.
Now that he has given her the power to get close to the instructor, she will not let this opportunity go.
"No matter what, this time we still focus on obtaining intelligence, don't act rashly,"
Chapter completed!
