Chapter 997 Leniency for Confession

"Our adventurer?"

Emily looked at me with flat eyes, but there was a trace of doubt in her tone.

"Yes," I said, "when Cecil published his third book, someone from your clan sent a warning letter."

Emily pondered for a while and nodded: "So that's it."

I asked her: "Aren't you surprised?"

She asked me, "What's the surprise?"

Then, she explained: "The decisions made by the top management are beyond doubt."

I asked her back: "High-level officials also make mistakes sometimes, don't they? For example, they alerted Cecil to others."

Emily was silent for a moment and said: "Yes, senior leaders also make mistakes sometimes."

I sighed and said: "Actually, I think that since Cecil already knows what you are doing, it is better to send someone to find a time to have a good talk with him to clarify the matter and resolve the misunderstanding."

"Misunderstand?"

"Yes," I said, "You think that Cecil peeked into your confidential historical documents is actually a misunderstanding."

Emily looked at me and said calmly: "What do you mean?"

I turned my head and looked at each other with her. After a few seconds, I said: "The reason why Cecil knows those histories is because he once traveled many areas as a bard, met many people, and also There were many legendary stories told by hearsay, and he combined these things together to create this collection of novels. However, some of these stories happen to coincide with your secret historical documents."

"Is this really the case?" Emily asked lightly.

"Probably, that's what Cecil expressed to me when I talked to him."

After hearing this, Emily thought for a moment and nodded: "What you said makes sense."

"Oh? You also think there is no connection between Cecil and secret historical documents?"

"No" Emily shook her head and said, "I just think it is necessary to propose to the senior management to communicate with Cecil."

I spread my hands: Hey, it seems I’m overthinking.

After that, I changed the subject and asked her: "How is your investigation of the design drawing case going?"

Emily shook her head and said, "I don't know, I don't pay attention to this anymore."

"Are you a hands-off shopkeeper?" I hesitantly said, "I really can't see that you are irresponsible sometimes."

Emily said calmly: "It's not that I am irresponsible for this case, I just no longer pay attention to it. When there are clues, I will continue to take over the investigation."

I nodded: "Since you no longer pay attention to it, what are you doing every day now?"

"Brush monsters," Emily said, "I want to make up for the lost training during this period as soon as possible."

As she said that, she turned to me and said calmly: "You also come to help me."

I was startled, pointed to my nose, and asked Emily with my eyes.

Emily didn't speak, but responded to me with a calm yet firm look.

I frowned: "How can I help you?"

"Spar with me," Emily said.

Haha, have you finally returned to your daily life of being abused?

Speaking of which, I really miss the days when I was brutally tortured by Emily~

Ah! Why does a touch of excitement and expectation fill my heart when I mention being abused?

Could it be that I have a body that is abused?

When I got home and entered the room, I was surrounded by girls. Cagalli asked me with a half-smile, "Did you meet any beauties or confidante during this trip to Dashai City?"

Barbara slapped the table with her little hands, and her pointed ears stood up: "Tell me! Have you met any seductive little vixen?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Cagalli couldn't help but look back at Barbara. That look was seven parts mocking and three parts sympathetic, mocking her for speaking without thinking, and sympathetic to her touching IQ and EQ.

I was also ashamed: Come on, your race attack is too subtle. It seems that you should also know that Cagalli has a relative from the fox tribe!

If we hadn't lived together for a long time and knew each other's personalities, would you believe that Cagalli would hit you in the chest with her little fist?

Yura smiled charmingly at me: "Brother, you have to tell me honestly~ You will be lenient if you confess, but you will be stern if you resist~"

I thought to myself: If you confess, you will be given leniency, if you go to jail, if you resist, you will get stricter punishment, and if you go home to celebrate the New Year, I still understand this principle. Besides, I really didn't meet any "seductive little vixen", although I did encounter one. A very flirtatious fox tribe woman, but she was not trying to seduce me, but was delaying me with her seductive words and eyes, trying to trick me while I was confused, but she was already betrayed by me. I politely refused!

Lilea snorted from the side: "You still want to hide and deny it? Your cat ears have already smelled it!"

"Do you smell it?" I looked confused: "What did you smell?"

Lilea chuckled: "Of course I can smell the rouge and gouache on your body."

"Ah?" I was immediately confused: "How is this possible? I really haven't touched any women? You have to believe it."

Just when I said this, I suddenly remembered something: I remember when I was pretending to leave, the fox tribe woman named Ju Jiemei seemed to fly up, hugged my right leg, wiped my tears, and kept crying, maybe It was at that time that her rouge and gouache rubbed onto my trouser legs.

My eyes twitched and I didn't speak for a long time.

Cagalli's little fist made a clicking sound, and she said with a half-smile, "Remember?"

Phoenix gently covered Remi's curious big eyes and said in a sweet voice: "Listen to sister, don't look at it, you will have nightmares."

I:

At the moment when the women each showed their small fists and sharp claws, I quickly shouted: "Stop! Don't do it yet! Heroines, can you please listen to my explanation?"

Cagalli frowned: "Say!"

Then, I told everything about how I got to Dasay City, what kind of perfunctory and difficult things I encountered in the teahouse, and what I talked about with Cecil afterwards.

At the end of the story, I found my pair of pants from the laundry nearby and showed them the dark red blood stains on them.

Barbara checked her nose, then came closer to me and sniffed my arms and chest. Finally, she turned to the women and nodded seriously.

The tension in the room was like ink dripping into the lake, disappearing without a trace.

Feeling that the atmosphere had eased, I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief: I was meowing. I was scared to death just now and almost lost half my life again.

Just as she was lamenting about the "survival after the disaster", Lilea suddenly asked: "Xiaoyi, is the Cecil you are talking about the troubadour who lived in Airui City before?"
