Chapter 544: Adopted Son

The atmosphere in the study was a little dignified.

Xifa looked at Baisen, his eyes gradually changed, from hidden anger, to gradually calm, to cold, and then responded in a deep voice: "I see."

Baisen also looked straight at Xifa without any concession, like a lion defending his majesty.

When the atmosphere in the room was about to drop to freezing point, there was a knock on the door, and then someone pushed the door open, and Anilu's voice sounded outside the door: "Did I bother you?"

Xifa didn't look back and still stared at Baisen and said, "No, Mom."

He continued: "There is nothing else, I will go back to the room first."

Only then did Bison hum.

Xifa took a few steps back, then looked away, and when he turned around, he showed a gentle smile to his mother, and then took his leave.

After closing the door, Anilu turned around and saw her husband rubbing her temples, she chuckled lightly: "Have you had a fight?"

"That's not enough."

"It's just that the child couldn't see his position clearly. I reminded him." Baisen put down his hand, looked at his wife and said, "I have a feeling that I can't control him."

Anilu said softly: "Honey, he can't be a child forever. He has grown up, he fought against pirates at sea, and he is already a major."

Bison shook his head and said, "I have to find a way to strengthen my control over him."

Anilu frowned slightly: "He is your child."

Bai Sen raised his head, looked at his wife quietly, and corrected her expressionlessly: "It's an adopted son!"

Back in the room, Sifa closed the door and saw Gregor huddled quietly in the birdcage, staring straight at the chandelier above.

Xifa raised his head, and saw a mass of black viscous liquid surging behind the lampshade, and a pair of amber eyes popped out of it from time to time.

"Kardashian, don't scare it."

Sifer coughed dryly.

A chuckle sounded from the chandelier, black liquid poured out of the lampshade, and fell down. The liquid squirmed and changed, starting from the toes, and gradually outlined a beautiful woman with a very exotic style.

Kardashian turned around and sat on the sofa next to her, with one long leg stretched out and her bare feet resting on the small round table next to her.

"You've had some emotional ups and downs, you don't look happy, did you just get angry?"

Xifa rubbed the space between his brows, and said helplessly, "Don't watch me."

"I recently recalled some interesting knowledge. You prepare me a pen and paper, and I want to record it." Kardashian changed a topic that Xifa was interested in.

"No problem, I'll get someone to bring enough paper tomorrow, I hope you'll get used to pens." Sifa opened the drawer of the desk, took out a pen with a round belly and shook it, and then began to write letters.

The letter was written to Oswald, to the effect that he asked the old man if there was a "rock giant monster's crystallized core" and the corresponding blood in the Antiquities Association. He has completely digested the 'conspirator' potion, as long as he finds out whether Sequence 5 needs to cooperate with the corresponding ceremony, he can consider promotion.

As for the poor auxiliary material, Xifa believes that it will be collected soon.

After writing the letter, in front of Kardashian, he blew the metal piccolo to summon the messenger.

A moment later, he heard a phantom knock on the door.

"Please come in."

Oswald's headless messenger came through the door. It seemed to be afraid of Kardashian, and it walked away from far away, and turned to the other side of Xifa.

After receiving the letter, the courier also abnormally did not smooth the envelope, and left with a hint of escape.

Xifa couldn't help looking at Kardashian, who chuckled lightly: "It's a spirit creature, it's normal for it to be afraid of me, no one wants to be thrown into prison for no reason, what do you think?"

Xifa wholeheartedly agrees.

He then asked, "Do you know how you can have your own messenger?"

Kardashian shrugged her shoulders: "That's too simple, as long as you become a 'gatekeeper', or just a 'psychic', you have plenty of messengers to send."

Well, please forgive me for not being able to do it, 'Corpse Collector' is not an adjacent path to 'Hunter'.

Xifa tried to ask: "Other than this method?"

Kardashian said bluntly: "I don't know, I don't need another method. If I want a messenger, I can have it at any time."

She picked up the ladies' magazines on the table, and while reading them, she changed her dress into the latest fashion.

Xifa could only give up.

On Monday morning, after breakfast, Xifa received the news that his adjutant, O'Neill, whom he hadn't seen for several days, had arrived.

The young man was wearing a straight, wrinkle-free second lieutenant uniform, and when he saw Xifa, he gave a military salute.

"Good morning." Xifa took the initiative to greet. Perhaps because of the violent storm caused by the Church of Storms, the weather in Backlund these days has been good, especially today, it is rare that there is no fog. The sky is clear, blue sky and white clouds, and the sun is shining brightly. All become very beautiful.

"Good morning, sir." O'Neill didn't despise Xifa because of his youth. On the contrary, he thought that Xifa was so young and could become a major in less than half a year without relying on his family background. There must be something worth learning from him. , so keep in awe of Xifa.

"Don't be too restrictive, this is not the General Office of the Navy." Xifa smiled, "At this time, you should stay at home with your loved ones, after all, the New Year is coming."

"It's like this. I went to the General Affairs Office to go through the transfer procedures in the morning. Then, Colonel Sturk asked me to inform you to report to the General Affairs Office on the first Monday of January." O'Neill said quickly.

Sturk is an official of the 'Black Sail' system, responsible for issuing orders from high-level officials.

Xifa nodded, "I see."

"Then I will retreat." O'Neill gave another military salute and left.

"It seems that my task has come down, I don't know what kind of boat they will give me."

With anticipation, Sifa walked into the room.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Xifa appeared above the gray fog on time to participate in this week's Tarot Club.

At the party, the 'Sun' talked about their experience in the temple. The operation of the City of Silver to explore the temple of the fallen creator did not go well, and the exploration team has been living a repeated life.

Everyone gave different suggestions based on their own knowledge and experience.

Mister Fool gave a reminder of the 'Rose of Redemption'.

Afterwards, Audrey the Justice gave three pages of Roselle's diary, and Xifa also contributed one page, which was obtained from Viscount Ellis.

In the next session, Xifa continued to purchase the auxiliary materials she needed, and received a response from the "justice" trifle. She made it clear that she could provide "the complete root of the dark flower".

In the end, Xifa reached a deal with Miss Justice for 550 pounds.

During the free exchange session, members of the Tarot Club naturally discussed the Backlund Great Smog Incident, and Xifa also joined the discussion, but did not reveal too much information, so this week's Tarot Club, in this discussion announced the end.

On a ship heading to Bayam, in the first-class cabin, a tall lady with long chestnut hair opened an envelope and took out a letter from it.

This was just sent by her courier from Backlund, she unfolded the paper, and saw it said.

‘Dear Madam, according to your instructions, I have already obtained further information about that Major Sifa.’
