Chapter 1040 Bill

Next, Elder Mai Sonoda talked about all the advantages of the Elf Queen like a speech, which made my head feel as big as a bucket.

The corners of my eyes trembled and the corners of my mouth twitched: "I said, Sir Elder, don't you see the shortcomings of the Queen?"

Elder Mai Sonoda looked arrogant and said solemnly: "I can't see it!"

I really want to squirt this old witch to death with a mouthful of salt soda!

Just when my face was ferocious and my expression collapsed, Elder Mai Sonoda said again: "Even if I saw it, what can I do? After all, Her Majesty the Queen has a peaceful personality and a kind nature. She likes to compromise when things happen and is unwilling to fight. These can all be regarded as It’s a sign of ‘benevolence’.”

"Sir Elder, do you really not understand the difference between 'benevolence' and 'cowardice', or do you simply want to argue with me once?"

"Of course I understand what 'cowardice' and 'benevolence' are, and I don't want to argue with you." Elder Mai Sonoda said lightly: "Maybe it's just because of the 'benevolence' and 'cowardice' that your human race knows. 'The meaning is different from that of our elves."

I pondered for a moment: "Can you please help me explain what the meanings of 'benevolence' and 'cowardice' in your elves are?"

"Our Majesty the Queen is 'benevolent', and as for cowardice," Elder Mai Sonoda looked directly at me and said calmly: "The elves are never cowardly."

Done!

This was the only thought I could think of after hearing Elder Mai Sonoda's answer.

Once this old witch gets too stubborn, it goes without saying that this topic will definitely not be able to continue.

He sighed helplessly: "Okay, whatever you say is whatever it is."

As I said that, I took out my pocket watch and took a look. It was almost nine o'clock. I stood up and bowed slightly to Elder Mai Sonoda: "Then I'll take my leave first."

Then, he turned around and strode towards the door.

"Wait!" Elder Mai Sonoda's voice sounded behind me.

I stopped and turned around: "Is something wrong?"

The elder frowned and relaxed. After repeating it several times, he slowly said: "Thank you very much for those children."

I said 'hmm': "Is there anything else?"

The elder thought for a while and said: "I understand what you want to do, and I also understand your intention to find Her Majesty the Queen. It's just that you can't do it now. It's not the right time yet. When the time comes, I will naturally find a way to help you. I should regard it as repaying my gratitude for those children."

"The story of a crane repaying a favor?" I chuckled: "Okay, then I'll thank you first."

After leaving the elder's house, I stopped by Ren's treehouse. Ren was practicing inserting a dagger into the gaps between his fingers. I listened to the regular clicking sounds and watched the hand holding the knife move quickly and evenly. I stood there, staring at the series of cold shadows drawn by the glinting tip of the knife. To be honest, I felt a little scared, for fear that Ren would accidentally poke a hole in his finger - although, I It is clear that this situation is absolutely impossible to happen.

The sword practice lasted for seven or eight minutes, and Ren just stopped. He raised his head and looked directly at me: "Do you want to try it?"

I curled my lips, thought for a moment, then raised my right hand and looked at the fluorescent light: "Of course."

As I said that, I handed over my hand, put it on the table, spread my fingers, and looked indifferent.

Ren's eyes flashed with a cold light: "Aren't you afraid that I will pierce your hand with a knife?"

"Of course I'm not afraid," I said calmly: "With my recovery ability, even if it is punctured, it will heal in just a few minutes."

"Aren't you worried about the poison on the knife?" Renn sneered again.

"You are my right-hand man, and you are much stronger than me. If you really wanted to kill me, I would have died a long time ago. There is no way you are still here chatting and talking nonsense."

Ren smiled evilly, and then his hands were like shadows, and his voice was like raindrops. The clicking sound was faster and denser than before, and I felt my body stiffen slightly when I heard it.

However, my hand was still firmly placed on the table, calm as usual, and didn't seem to be nervous at all.

My mood calmed down slightly, and I stared at the tip of the knife calmly.

About ten minutes passed before Ren's hand stopped. At this time, although I looked extremely calm on the outside, in my heart I was already so scared that I was dripping with cold sweat.

Although my recovery power is astonishing, I am not immune to or weakened by the pain caused by injuries. It hurts as much as it hurts. Therefore, when I was practicing swordsmanship in Rennes, I was always in fear. The expression on his face was calm and indifferent, nothing more.

Renn put the dagger at his waist, took out a bottle of wine from the box on the side of the sofa, popped the cork, placed two glasses, poured half a glass into each, then raised the glass and said: "Congratulations, lord, for getting what you deserve." willing."

"Oh?" I picked up another wine glass and touched it lightly with him: "It seems that you have learned about the Elf Queen's choice?"

"Yes," Ren said, "I learned about this at noon."

"It seems that you are very well-informed." I shook my glass and said, "However, it seems that the elves can't be of much help right now. I just had an interview with an elder, and she told me that she had discovered I have achieved my intentions and purposes, but now because of some things, the elves are unable to do what they want and have no time to distract themselves."

Renn took a sip of wine and said, "I'm afraid the reason for this inability is the instability of the Elf regime."

"The political power is unstable, haha, I have never heard of this." I put the wine glass on the table and said, "If I remember correctly, the only people who can threaten the position of the Elf Queen are Akahawi and a few others. Elf elders, although they seem to be very different from each other, they are still very supportive of the Queen's rule. As for Akahawi, although this person is an extremist from the perspective of the secret letter, but from the content analysis, he should She also has no objections to her sister becoming the queen. In this case, what organization or family can shake the status of the Elf Queen?"

Ren drank all the wine in the glass, poured himself another glass, and then said: "You don't have any outstanding intelligence agency in Moonlight City. It's normal not to know some things. Moreover, even if you don't have an intelligence agency, you still don't have an intelligence agency." You can know some more secretive information, as long as you are willing to spend money and spend the money in the right place."

I drank all the wine in the glass, then poured another glass, and said calmly: "Listen to what you said, you must have spent a lot of money to obtain information, right?"

Renn chuckled: "Yes, I have recorded the details of the money on the bill, waiting for you to reimburse me."

I stretched out my hand to him and said, "Bring me the bill, let me take a look."
