The waiter was still able to hold a large plate full of tea cups with one hand, but after Ranaya said something to him, his hands became more and more unsteady, and he changed to holding the large plate with both hands.

However, the tea cup above was still shaking violently. The clear water surface of the black tea was constantly swaying, and the golden light was breaking and gathering in it, as if the mood was as uneasy as him.

After Lanaya got up, she didn't sit back down. Instead, she walked towards the place where the waiter came out. After passing through the door, she looked around and after confirming that no one was there, she chose a suitable place.

From an angle, he leaned against the wall quietly and observed the movements of the waiter.

As Lanaya requested, when the waiter served Korede the tea, he pulled the saucer of the tea cup and tilted it at a slightly larger angle. All the hot tea spilled onto Korede along the table.

On top of him, Kored jumped up.

"Fuck you, you little brat, you don't have eyes, do you?"

"I'm very sorry, I'm really sorry! I'll take you to clean up now!" After saying that, the waiter hurriedly led Korede away from the place with an apologetic expression.

It can only be said that Lanaya was very satisfied with the performance of the waiter. Except for the people in the Forging Pavilion next to her, she did not attract the attention of anyone else, and those people only glanced at it and turned their heads.

The nearest road leading to the bathroom was the one where Lanaya was. Kored was naturally led over, and he pushed the waiter aside vigorously, "Okay, I can walk by myself!"

"

The waiter was pushed to stagger, and without saying anything, he hurried back to the seat where Kored was originally, and began to apologize to everyone again. After taking out a rag to wipe it clean, he quickly distributed it to others.

I had some tea and left in a hurry.

Korede got into the passage with an angry look on his face, and kept cursing something in his mouth. His expression was a bit ferocious, which may be largely due to the burn he had just received.

"Ah, Teacher Korede." Lanaya came over from the other side. At this time, her veil was used as a handkerchief. She wiped it a few times and stuffed it into her pocket. "What a coincidence, you are here too...

…Ah, why are your pants wet?”

Korede was already in a bad mood. He didn't want to meet anyone at this time, but Lanaya suddenly appeared and told him that his pants were wet... His face became increasingly ugly.

"I'm sorry, I seem to have said the wrong thing." Lanaya smiled awkwardly, took out a large towel that had been prepared at some point and handed it over, and said straight to the point: "Teacher Creed, I want to ask you something.

matter."

"Have you got the cane?" Kored suddenly asked.

"got it."

Korede nodded, took the towel, and looked at his wet pants again. His expression was as if he had eaten bitter melon. He looked back again as if he was worried, to make sure that everyone in the venue was paying attention.

When he was on stage, he said: "Wait for me." Then he ran all the way into the bathroom.

A few minutes later, Kored came out with the big towel hanging on his arm. Kored took off the towel and was about to return it to Lanaya. Lanaya waved her hand and said: "No, you

Covered.”

"Cover it? Sister, it's almost May, isn't it hot?"

"No...you can absorb the water again." Lanaya thought for a while and added: "The black tea spilled on the pants will have dark watermarks, covering it will not affect the appearance. Moreover, maybe it will be sucked up after the auction is over.

?”

"It seems so." Kored nodded in agreement, but suddenly realized something was wrong, and shouted: "You can still tell from my pants that they are black tea?!" Kored immediately thought of it.

The waiter who just poured tea on himself, now it seems that the two of them are probably colluding!

Lanaya immediately realized that she had let slip, and said hurriedly: "I guessed that the color couldn't be green tea anyway, and if you judge it by smell, it wouldn't be coffee or juice! What do you think?"

"What the hell!" Korede said, about to greet him with a fist, but unexpectedly Lanaya disappeared silently, and a voice came from behind him: "No, I really want to ask

I have a question for you! What’s going on in this auction? I heard that even the "Underworld Catastrophe" stolen from Bi'an Art Museum appeared!"

"You don't know about this yet?" Korede quickly turned around again. He was about to teach someone a lesson, but he paused in the middle of the action. He blinked twice numbly and breathed in doubt.

He took a breath and said: "Well, yes, it seems that you really don't know."

Lanaya was also slightly stunned, waiting for Korede to continue.

"I heard that you wiped out the group of thieves who stole famous paintings, right?"

"What does it mean that the group has been wiped out?"

"You don't have to worry about it... Later, one of them escaped. But the one who escaped was caught again. In the end, she obediently handed over the famous painting and returned it to the owner of the art gallery. After the owner got the famous painting back...

…”

"Wait a minute, the museum owner got back the famous painting?" Ranaya closed the door behind her. This incident made her very puzzled. Didn't Manjuhua leave the museum just in front of them? They were also going

It took some time to buy the mask. Even if you had enough time, such a fantastic thing wouldn't happen, right?

The female thief was caught and she handed over the famous painting obediently?

"Yes. After the museum owner got the famous painting back, she said that she didn't even have the ability to protect the painting and that she was no longer qualified to store the painting in her art gallery. So, she made a decision on the spot to put it away.

It was auctioned. Someone from our Casting Pavilion responded to sponsor the auction, so he brought the alchemy room with him, and that's how it happened." Korede sighed as he said it, as if he was still a little regretful. "Yeah.

I wonder if its next owner will treat it well, hey..."

"Where is the owner? Where is the captured thief?" Ranaya asked.

"The thief left the famous painting behind and was let go by us. The owner of the museum should also be at the auction, I don't know for sure."

"Let him go?" Lanaya's tone contained a hint of anger.

"Now that she has returned the things, don't worry about anything else! Don't you still want to kill her?"

"Did you see that the thief really returned the famous painting to the museum owner? Also, are the famous paintings real? Is the museum owner pretending to be someone else?"

"Kid, you think things are too complicated!" Kored smiled bitterly and shook his head, "I have met the owner of the museum several times. He must be real. As for paintings... I am not an expert. Look.

I won’t come out, but the owner of the museum should know better."

Ranaya thought hard for a while, what happened to Manjuhua? Could it be... forced? When thinking of the most likely possibility, Ranaya quickly asked Korede: "The owner of the museum and I

, if you have to choose one in the middle, who do you believe?"

"Nonsense, of course it's you!" Korede replied without hesitation.

"Very good. My idea is that the owner of the museum was bribed by that group of thieves!" Lanaya seemed to have deliberately left some time for Kored to think, and then said: "I won't sell it anymore, that group of thieves

After stealing famous paintings, he targeted a few of us again because of this!" Ranaya shook the amethyst ring on her hand.

"What?" Korede certainly knows what this means. I don't know how many people covet the top secret of the Hidden Temple, but how many people don't even know what this top secret is.

According to Lanaya's current knowledge, there are two secrets in the Hidden Temple. One is the one-way passage connecting the inner temple and the Holy Temple. The second is the Holy Armor that Lanaya now possesses!

Obviously, even if Korede is a person in the Hidden Temple, he does not know these two points.

"Thank God, the Holy Light Scepter was delivered in time, and your people arrived. Otherwise, I really don't know what will happen!" Lanaya said with some fear, "By the way, who is the person who agreed to hold the auction?

ah?"

After listening to Lanaya's words, Kored's way of thinking unconsciously moved in that direction. Now he also doubted that person: "He is just an ordinary caster. He has worked in the Casting Pavilion for several years.

It’s been years, but...I choose to believe you."

"So, teacher, you also think that man is with that group of thieves?"

Kored thought for a while and nodded.

As long as someone agrees, Lanaya will be more certain about her guess. As early as when she met them in the restaurant, Lanaya guessed that there must be someone inside the Forging Pavilion!

"Okay. I'm going to do something earth-shattering and bad today. I hope the teacher can cooperate with me." Lanaya's brows slowly relaxed from this moment on, and then she put on a smile like a label.

"You don't want to grab that guy directly, do you?" Kored's eyes widened in surprise.

"I hate being guessed by others the most." After saying this, Lanaya still had a smile on her face, "I will rely on you to help me cover it then, but I saw with my own eyes that Willy subdued them.

Leader."

"I'll try my best. I left my seat for too long, so I have to go back. By the way, our Willy really likes you..."

"What?" Lanaya had only one thought in her mind, what's going on? Has her whole life's love fortune been concentrated in these few years? She just got rid of Angus, who had no chance of getting results, and now there's another one?

"The teleportation pendant is a gift! Hahahaha!" As if he was particularly proud that Lanaya could analyze the matter so thoroughly just now, and now she would be fooled by him, Korede left a string of meaningful laughter,

Opened the door and walked out.

After Lanaya learned that she had been tricked, she was not in a particularly good mood. However, she soon heard the announcement of the official start of the auction coming from outside the opened door, so she put on her veil again and walked slowly back to her seat.
Chapter completed!
