Chapter 623: Homecoming

On the other side, the carriage carrying Xia Fan also slowly stopped.

"Mr. Ambassador, your sinking point has been reached." The butler knocked on the car door.

Xia Fan jumped off the carriage, looked at the gorgeous villa and mansion in front of him and whistled, "Are you sure you didn't send it to the wrong place? I thought it would be a tightly guarded high-walled compound."

"Uh...what did you say?" The former was stunned.

"Nothing, just a joke." Xia Fan patted the other party's shoulder and said.

He noticed this when Taksis was called away - the head of the trial team was not so much there to greet him as he was to pick up the dragon girl. Apart from this, no other high-level officials from the church were present. This was obviously not taken seriously in terms of etiquette, at least not as much as the thank-you letter stated.

Of course, this situation is not incomprehensible. Things such as thanks and rewards can be added later, but the troubles encountered by the church are imminent.

What really concerned him was Sedaro's statement that the west side of the city was more secluded - staying away from the Foreign Affairs District could mean that they didn't want them to be disturbed by other forces, or it could also mean that they were not trusted, so they needed to be separated. distance from other forces. At the same time, being secluded also means it is easier to monitor. In other words, it is not unusual for the church to send the envoys into a tightly guarded closed house.

Xia Fan didn't object immediately, just for Taksis's sake.

"It seems that these people haven't reached the point of repaying kindness with hatred." Li muttered in a low voice.

"What a pity." Feleyton came over and said.

"Too close." Xia Fan distanced himself from him in disgust, "You guys... aren't you afraid of being discovered by people from the church?"

After hearing the news that the White Sand was about to head north, this vampire came to the door as soon as possible - I have to say that the intelligence network built by this person is indeed quite powerful. The decision that the lord just made can be transmitted to him in the next moment. in the ears. As a result, the ship not only carried a group of members of the Tribunal, but also a Natati noble.

Considering the elf's mood, Xia Fan asked him to wear a mask at all times and not to leave his cabin without permission. Felayton readily agreed to these restrictions, and even volunteered to forge a legal consultant status for himself. Such a cooperative attitude made it difficult for Xia Fan to kick him off the ship with a cold face.

Thinking of this, Xia Fan couldn't help but feel a little regretful.

The guests he hoped to board the ship did not come, but the guests who did not want to board the ship were extremely positive.

Momola finally chose to stay in Azure Castle.

Her original words were that there was more than one fruit orchard in the city, not to mention that after the tsunami disaster, more employees would be in dire straits. She hopes to help them get through this and teach them how to fight against the dehumanizing factory. Although the Relief Society has suffered heavy losses, the deeds of Horns and others have spread. She believes that this power will not dissipate with the disaster, but will be reborn in adversity and become a brand new force in Azure Castle.

When all this is mature, she will come back to look for Xia Fan to repay Jin Xia for her help.

"It's actually not a big deal to be discovered." Feleyton said calmly, "The Eternal Bank also has a branch in the Holy Wing Islands. If they are so repulsive to the Empire, how can they allow the influence of the Mistress to work here? . Belief is belief, and we can agree on many things when it comes to making money.”

Xia Fan sneered, "Does capital have no borders? This is a general rule everywhere."

"Capital... knows no borders..." Felaiton tasted it and smiled with interest. "It is indeed an apt description. It may be used as a motto and written into the account books of Forever Bank."

After moving the luggage into the residence and assigning rooms, Xia Fan found that the housekeeper had not left, but was staying in the lobby on the first floor.

"You can leave." He reminded deliberately, "We will clean up the room ourselves."

The other party showed a look of embarrassment, "Well... Sir Xia Fan, the church hopes that I will take care of your daily needs in the next few days."

"Is this a kind of surveillance?" Xia Fan asked bluntly.

"No, of course not!" the steward immediately denied, "You know that the church has encountered some troubles recently, and the cathedral is also stepping up its efforts to deal with these accidents. The city may not be peaceful. In addition, a commendation order may be issued at any time, I am here to help To ensure timely and efficient communication, the church would definitely choose me as a dragonborn instead of an ordinary person.”

"The envoys can go out at will?"

"This is natural. The church does not restrict your movements. It's just..." He coughed twice, "If you want to visit Shila City, please let me go with you. Of course - this will only be the case for these few days. Commendation Order After sending it, you should have a certain understanding of the king, and I will no longer need to accompany you."

This seems to be the biggest compromise the church can make.

As for why it was a few days... Xia Fan guessed that the Church of Hera was most likely to be able to reverse the current unfavorable situation in a few days and regain the confidence of the world. This may be the reason why Taxis was recalled so hurriedly - the high-level priest is about equal to Qingjian in strength, and when combined with divine magic, he is not inferior to Hagoromo. Although the dragon girl is young, she is also the backbone of the church.

Seeing that he only had a few days, Xia Fan stopped arguing with the other party.

After all, he also hopes that the church can return to normal as soon as possible, so that he can be free to help Ning Wanjun purify the evil spirits.

Back in the room, there was another figure in the room.

It is Olina Okan.

Seeing Xia Fan come back, she said a little nervously, "Uh--I wanted to see if you were there, but the door was not closed, so..."

"It's okay, I know." Xia Fan replied in a relaxed tone, "You want to see your brother, right?"

Olina's voice became thinner, "I don't know if he will blame me for abandoning him suddenly... What if he doesn't want to see me at all..."

This is probably the common denominator of all those who are timid about their hometown.

They have been away from familiar places for so long that they worry that they have become misfits and strangers.

"If you don't go and meet me, you will never know the answer." Xia Fan comforted, "Don't worry, I will abide by the agreement and go with you. Maybe your brother is thinking about meeting you every day. "

"Well..." Olina took a deep breath, "Thank you, Xia Fan."

"It's just a piece of cake." Xia Fan smiled and waved his hand, "Let's go."

…

"Let me ask you, have you thoroughly investigated the Eastern Mission and the others and confirmed that they have nothing to do with this matter?" The voice came from above, appearing majestic and solemn.

This person is Mrs. Mayne, who manages the monastery and collections, and is quite famous in the church.

Taxis's expression did not change at all, and she replied seriously, "I have investigated the other party's residence, and also inspected the ambassador's behavior and behavior at close range. Based on the above knowledge, it is possible that he is the mastermind of the evil incident. Extremely low. As for whether he really comes from Qi Kingdom in the Far East, and what his identity is there, I really can't verify it. But thinking about it from another perspective, if he is trying to attack the church, why would he take the risk with me to eliminate the evil spirit? "
