Chapter 109 I'll be the bait
When Le Yi looked at Qiu Shanshan, Qiu was still reeling from the murderous aura the woman had just exuded.
Then Le Yi tugged at her sleeve. The sudden touch brought Qiu Shanshan back to her senses, but she was still somewhat dazed.
Hearing the voice calling her name, Qiu Shanshan turned her head to look at Le Yi.
"Le Yi, why did the lady..." Le Yi looked at Qiu Shanshan, who still had an incredulous expression, and then said softly with a helpless look:
"Since you've chosen to stay, there are some things you'd better not know," Le Yi said, then paused thoughtfully before giving her final instructions.
"If one day you need to make a difficult choice, remember what you promised the lady."
Upon hearing Leyi's words, she remembered the promise she had just made to the lady. "Leyi, what do you mean by this? You...?"
Before Qiu Shanshan could even ask her question, Kujavina, who was standing by the door, called out, "Lei Yi."
Upon hearing the gentle call, Le Yi turned to look at Kujavina standing at the door.
At this moment, Kujavina had put away her angry expression and put on a kind motherly smile again.
Looking at Kujavina, Leyi recalled the Fool's emissary who had rushed to take her away earlier, and thought to herself, "It seems the message has been delivered."
Since she had no choice but to go, Kujavina led Ley away from the room.
Qiu Shanshan watched Le Yi's departing figure, still unable to understand the meaning of what he had just said.
There are too many mysteries surrounding Le Yi, whether it's her suddenly vanished power, her swordsmanship skills, or her reaction abilities.
Whether it was his strange behavior or something else, Qiu Shanshan felt that he was shrouded in mystery.
Seeing Qiu Shanshan's worried expression, Kailer didn't say anything, but turned to look at Peruvier.
Peruvier, who was playing with gifts with Clévy, also felt Keller's gaze and then looked at Keller.
Her gaze swept over them, and she saw Keller nod her head, as if gesturing for her to follow. Péruveli then nodded as well.
"Clementine, my stomach is a little upset, I'm going to the restroom. You can play here for a bit."
Claire nodded after hearing this, and then Peruvieri left the room with Keller.
Meanwhile, Leyi had already gone to Kujavina's room with her. Once inside, Leyi...
Then she saw the Fools' envoys standing to the side, and Kujavina sat down on a bench nearby, gently patting the seat next to her.
It seemed as if she was being gestured for Le Yi to sit down. All of this was within Le Yi's expectations; she couldn't avoid this test.
So, Ley followed Kujavina's suggestion and sat down to the side. Peruvier, with that motherly smile, slowly asked...
"My dear child, when you took Linglan to Fontaine to see a doctor, did you encounter a strange man wearing a mask?"
After hearing this, Le Yi pretended to be puzzled and said, "Strange man? No, when I took my lily of the valley to see the doctor..."
When the doctor said he couldn't cure my lily of the valley, I took it with me and left Fontainebleau. I haven't encountered any masked men since then or before.”
Upon hearing this, Kujavina looked at the Fool's envoy standing to the side, and the Fool's envoy, upon hearing Ley's voice,
She gently shook her head. Seeing this, Kujavina thought for a few seconds, then asked, "My dear child, where's your lily of the valley?"
"Bring it over to your mother, maybe she can help you." Le Yi then feigned great excitement.
"Really? That's wonderful! Please wait a moment, Mother, I'll go get it right now," Leyi said, and ran out of Kujavina's room.
After a long while, Le Yi returned to Kujavina's room with a withered lily of the valley. Seeing that Le Yi had indeed brought a pot of withered lily of the valley...
Kujavina then examined the pot of lily of the valley and noticed that it was only wilting because it lacked water.
After a few seconds of silence, Kujavina gave a faint smile, and then slowly raised her hand.
She gently touched the soil of the lily of the valley with her finger, and then water elements slowly condensed from her fingertips.
After the water elements entered the soil, the lily of the valley gradually began to recover its vitality, and Le Yi couldn't help but sigh with admiration.
"Reality is indeed different from games. Here, people with elemental power can release elemental energy with just a wave of their hand."
Then, Leyi feigned a very surprised and delighted expression. "Wow~, that's amazing! Mom is so incredible!"
Kujavina smiled slightly and said, "My dear child, planting flowers requires care. Regular watering is essential for them to bloom more beautifully."
"You must be careful next time," said Le Yi, who quickly nodded in agreement. "Yes, thank you, Mother. I'll remember."
Then, Ley happily left Kujavina's room, carrying the potted lily of the valley. After Ley left,
Kujavina then asked the Fool's envoy beside her, "Isn't the voice off?" The Fool's envoy quickly responded.
"Yes, sir, the mysterious person's voice sounded a little rough, not like a child's, and their heights were completely different as well."
"This child is so much shorter than him," Kujavina said after hearing this. "Go, tell Tanuki this new information."
"Yes!" After replying to Kujavina, the Fool's emissary quickly left the room, while Kujavina was still muttering to herself:
"Wendy," at the same time, Lei had arrived in the backyard of the fireplace house and replanted the lily of the valley in the ground.
Looking at the delicate lily of the valley, Le Yi smiled. "I'm sorry to have troubled you, my little lily of the valley. This mission was only possible because of you!"
After talking to himself, Le Yi gently touched the petals of the lily of the valley and then slowly stood up. Just as he stood up...
Suddenly, he felt as if a flash of white light had passed through his brain, and then he fell into a daze.
It took him a long time to come to his senses, and he covered his forehead with his hand and shook his head gently, "Uh, just now, that was..."
At that moment, Le Yi suddenly felt as if something had just flashed through her mind, but she couldn't recall any details.
Unable to recall anything, Leigh stopped thinking about it, turned and entered the fireplace house, while in the hallway...
He then saw Kelly and Peruvier, and Kelly, upon seeing Ley, asked, "Ley, do you know the lady?"
After hearing this, Le Yi nodded, "That's right, I do know him. I mentioned before that I know some things about Teyvat."
This also includes everyone in the Eleven Executives of the Fools, and this lady,
I think she could become a very effective fighting force for us in dealing with Kujavina in the future.” Previously, Ley hadn't had high expectations for the lady.
But judging from the situation between the woman and Kujavina in that room, it wouldn't be impossible to get the woman's help.
It just might need a trigger, and while Le Yi was thinking about it, Kai Le asked again, "Regardless of whether the lady can ultimately help us..."
But right now we should be thinking about that guy named Ranach. Lei, what are your plans?" Lei thought for a moment and then spoke up.
“I know where Ranach lives. There shouldn’t be anything else going on at this hour. I’ll go and find out what’s going on.”
If Ranach really lives there, I have a way, but if she's not there, then we'll have to execute Plan B.
Leyi already knew perfectly well that Ranach definitely didn't live in the same place anymore, because if she still lived there...
They should have been captured by Kujavina's men long ago, but the Fool's envoy didn't mention it.
Instead, it was said that Kujavina had recently sent people to capture Ranah, and after hearing about Plan B, Kelley also asked about it with some curiosity.
"What is this Plan B?" After a long silence, Le Yi spoke with a determined expression, "I will act as bait to lure out the assassin in the shadows."
