Chapter 760 Then Let Me Ask You

Although he didn't say it explicitly, Xiao Lin already felt it.

"Then..." Sure enough, after a slight pause, Sena said, "The nobles will forgive you this time too. They said they can make clothes."

Afterwards, she handed over a list.

"Detailed requirements are written on it. After confirmation, please complete it before the deadline."

Sure enough, it's here again.

Xiao Lin covered his cheek in pain.

Megumin asked eagerly: "Xiaolin Xiaolin, what kind of clothes are you wearing this time?"

"Let me see..." He unfolded the list and said: "

‘Na! ’

'What's wrong? ’

‘The two of us are always together lately, right? ’

‘Ah, that’s true. ’

'Feeling my heart beats a little faster'

‘What did you say suddenly? ’

'So...'

‘So, so? ’

‘Really, are you going to let the girl tell everything? ’ Make something like this - clothes that are very suitable for sexy girls. "

He raised his head and saw the complicated expressions on his companions.

"You've worked hard, Xiaolin."

"Well - if you want to better understand the mood of the characters in the play, just reading the lines is not enough." Aqua actually said this sentence.

"You don't need this kind of evaluation."

Xiao Lin rolled his eyes angrily, and even if it was only to this extent, Youyou was already blushing and shy and didn't know what to do.

Then, Sena said: "I wish you good luck. Then, it's almost time for me to leave."

She quickly left the mansion.

After the Kingdom Prosecutor left, the tense atmosphere calmed down for the time being, but it kept rising again and again, making them somewhat exhausted both physically and mentally.

But before that——

Xiaolin looked at the idiot goddess on the sofa and said, "So, Aqua, is there anything you want to explain?"

"Listen to me, Xiaolin." Aqua's expression changed and she said extremely seriously: "This is a problem for our entire team, so we work together... to catch the criminal..."

At the end of the sentence, she couldn't speak anymore, her eyes kept wandering, and her hands were tangled together uneasily.

Xiao Lin looked at her and said: "Just now, you said you got bubble wine as a reward for your work, right?"

"It's annoying, Mr. Xiaolin. Don't be like this, your expression is a bit scary."

"You said that, right?"

Xiao Lin suddenly came to her, his eyes glowing red, which was even scarier than the excited Hui Hui.

"...Yes, I said it."

The stupid goddess lowered her head.

Xiao Lin continued: "The bubble wine as reward is the same as the wanted poster just now, right?"

"It's a bit similar, but a bit different..."

"Is it the same?!"

"...Yes, the same."

The stupid goddess who was questioned once again lowered her head helplessly and admitted the matter.

Darkness also nodded and said, "I've confirmed it, it's the same bubble wine."

"You used magic to gather monsters this morning or noon, right?" Xiao Lin continued to ask.

It's the Starlight Flame.

The magic power will rise into the sky like fireworks, and has the effect of attracting monsters. Sato Kazuma was tortured by this trick at first.

"It's useless..."

"You used it, right? You used it, right? You used it, right????"

Xiao Lin came closer to her, his lips were almost touching hers, and his forehead was pressed against hers, making her eyes look at him.

"Yes...I used it."

"You...idiot goddess!!! You've caused us a lot of trouble!"

Kobayashi angrily scolded Aqua for doing something stupid.

The stupid goddess immediately defended herself: "Wait, wait! Why are you trying to hurt me! I just went to complete the commission!"

"It's Aqua's fault that the content of the commission was not confirmed in detail." Megumin also said the same, and believed that it was Aqua's fault.

But the idiot goddess also has something to say.

"I've confirmed it. They said it was a surprise training to train mercenaries, so I used that magic, and the other party also gave me that bottle of high-end bubble wine!"

It didn't seem like the problem was with her.

Darkness sighed slightly and said, "What should we do, Xiaolin? If the real culprit is caught, Aqua's help to them will be exposed."

"Ha...haha...If this is the case, it must be the death penalty..."

Megumin said softly.

This is not a threat, but a real sentence, and a sentence for having helped a real prisoner.

The stupid goddess burst into tears immediately, "I didn't do anything bad~~Why is this happening~~~"

I just want to cry!

Xiao Lin also covered his head in pain.

Why is this guy always getting into all kinds of trouble?

————

Knowing that Aqua had unknowingly helped the real prisoner and might be misunderstood as a helper, Xiaolin and others stayed awake all night.

The next day, they gathered in the hall of the mansion, all with obvious dark circles on their faces.

"No, it's all over..."

"Xiao Lin, I understand how you feel, but squatting on the ground holding your knees like this won't solve the problem."

Megumin lay on top of him, trying to pull him up.

"Megumin is right." Darkness came over, grabbed his other arm, and said, "How can you waste time like this?"

"It's useless to do anything anyway... It's useless to find the prisoner, it's useless to make clothes..."

That's the problem.

If you make clothes, they will be stolen, and then you will be asked by the nobles to make new clothes. If you catch the criminal, Aqua will be revealed, putting the team in danger again. From being a single person to being blocked at both ends, he will be accused no matter what.

"There is nothing we can do, so I might as well just stay in a daze like this."

"That's better than doing nothing. It's not your style to give up so early."

"It doesn't matter what my style is, it doesn't matter at all..."

Xiao Lin responded to them boredly.

"that……"

"What's wrong, God of Plague?"

Aqua raised her hand cautiously, and Kobayashi looked at her and spat out an even more outrageous name than before. In the past, the stupid goddess would have yelled because of this title, but now she can only laugh and plead with him.

"Well... when I was sitting upright, my legs almost started to feel numb. Also, the fur ball was so heavy on my knees. When I tried to move it away, it would scratch me."

"You should thank me for not putting any stones."

After Maunosuke meowed, Kobayashi rolled his eyes angrily.

This is punishment.

Although it is difficult to eliminate the hatred in my heart, it would be good if she can learn a lesson - of course, the idiot goddess who only cares about eating and not fighting will definitely not remember this.

However, Aqua made her request even more and said with a flattering smile: "Also, if you can return the confiscated bubble wine to me, I will be very happy..."

"How dare you mention sparkling wine! Think about it, you idiot!"

"I reflected on it. When I was asked to clean the bathroom and toilet, I didn't even complain."

Aqua felt wronged instead.

Xiao Lin, who was unhappy, pointed at her and shouted, "Okay! The next task is to clean the courtyard. I will crawl on my knees and pull out all the weeds in every corner. I don't want to see a single fallen leaf!"

"I won't do it!" Aqua shouted loudly: "You asked me to sit down and I did it. Is that enough?!"

"You two, now is not the time to quarrel."

Darkness rushed over and pulled Ka Xiaolin and Aqua.

The stupid goddess cried out in grievance, "Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu, I just want to complete the commission..."

"Aqua, can you explain in detail about that commission? Where it is, under what circumstances, and who the client is. Any details will do. Now we need information." Darkness is ready to start from this aspect. Want to find some clues.

Normally, it is impossible to do something without flaws, especially something that is premeditated.

"Let me think about it..."

The idiot goddess began to think about what happened before and said: "When I wanted to go to the guild to drink in the morning, a man stopped me."

Is this guy planning to drink bubble wine in the morning?

There is really no hope.

"Then, he said that he planned to entrust me, the high priest, with a particularly suitable job. Ah, of course I refused at first. After all, I am a high priest, and I don't have to do the work just because I want to do it."

"Actually, you're having a glass of wine with me. You don't want to be disturbed, right?"

Xiao Lin ruthlessly exposed her lies.

"That's not true!" Aqua retorted forcefully and said, "I am the power of the goddess. I am here to protect my lovely believers, not for money. Can you understand?"

I don't understand anything!

Totally unconvincing, this greedy goddess!

"However, I couldn't refuse the conditions he proposed... So I had no choice but to accept the mission..."

"Bubbles?"

"Just a bubble bar?"

"It's because the bubble wine didn't run away."

In short, it was the stupid goddess who quickly fell under the opponent's offensive of adding money and agreed to help. In the end, a riot was caused and the clothes were stolen.

"Although I say that, how did I know that bottle of bubble wine was stolen from a noble?!"

"Anyway, you just fell for the good deeds! You have to learn to doubt others."

Xiao Lin sighed helplessly.

However, what people never expected was that Aqua actually said: "Because it was my second time, I felt that I could be trusted... By the way, I was given some additional rewards for the first time. ”

"Hey, wait a minute, why is it the second time?"

Xiao Lin noticed something was wrong.

"That's what it means literally." Aqua said matter-of-factly: "That person entrusted me with a similar job before, and this is the second time."

"Similar jobs?"

"The last time I was asked to lift the barrier."

"Well, tell me in detail."

Xiao Lin had a kind smile on his face, but in fact, his clenched fists could no longer hold back, but he still endured it.

"Even if you say so, I don't remember. I was already very drunk that time. Because I was drunk, I don't even remember where I untied the barrier. When was the last commission... Yes, it was the night before I picked up the slate!”

Aqua said this loudly as if she had remembered.

Darkness also said: "After completing the mission, you said what others asked you to do, right?"

"You..."

Xiao Lin gritted his teeth and looked at her.

"Xiao Lin, what's wrong?"

The stupid goddess still had no idea what earth-shattering mistake she had made. The next second——

"You trouble-making plague god!"

"Wait, I'm the goddess of water————"

"Shut up, useless goddess!"

Before Aqua could finish, Kobayashi interrupted her and shouted angrily: "When the criminal committed his first crime, you helped him!"

"...Huh?"

"If it was the same person who commissioned it, it should be like this."

Darkness seemed to have reacted.

"Hey hey hey——" Aqua screamed, shouting: "No, no, it can't be like this?"

She still didn't want to believe it.

Kobayashi pointed at her head and said, "Think about it with your stupid head full of water. It's like this no matter how you think about it, right?"

"Because, because! I was very drunk, so I just went with the flow--" Aqua realized that she had spoken out of turn and immediately changed her words: "No, I saw someone in trouble and couldn't just ignore him, so as a goddess, I accidentally helped him."

"You... what good things have you done..."

Kobayashi was already crying without tears.

Not to mention that there are helpers of the real criminal in her family, even if the real criminal is caught, there is no way to send him to trial, because that would make Aqua also be regarded as an accomplice and sentenced.

Who can understand this feeling of frustration?

Darkness was not angry, but comforted her: "At this point, there is no point in blaming Aqua, and this information is very critical."

"Why?"

"If the criminal asks you to remove the barrier, it means that the barrier will hinder him for some reason, right?"

"Yeah... that's right."

She was right, otherwise she wouldn't have found the stupid goddess.

"What can Aqua's barrier protect against?"

"Demons and undead..."

Aqua whispered.

Meihui and Yunyun seemed to have thought of something.

"Wait a minute!"

"Could it be that the criminal is..."

Obviously, the criminal's identity has been revealed.

Aqua also nodded vigorously and said, "I see. The criminal is that pest or Wiz, right?"

"No, no, no, this conclusion is too hasty." Darkness held down the stupid goddess who was about to find fault.

This guy was born to be at odds with Vanir and Wiz. When he heard that it might be the demon and the lich, the first thing he thought of was them.

"But, in this case, it can explain why the formula was prepared!"

"That being said, Wiz and Vanir, there is no reason to frame us."

"There is a reason! They are not happy with me as a goddess!"

"Is it the other way around?"

In Xiaolin's opinion, it was the stupid goddess who was not happy with those two.

"Then let me ask you. Let's not talk about the first time, you remember the second commission clearly, right?"

"Of course!"

"So is the criminal Wiz or Vanir?"

"... Well, he was wearing a long black robe that covered his whole body, and he had a hood so I couldn't see his face clearly."

"You can tell from the voice, right?"

"Yeah, it doesn't seem like Wiz or Vanir..."

At this point, Aqua had to admit that she was overthinking.
