Chapter 412 Butterfly and Wolf
"I don't want to kill anyone in the shrine, so I used a bamboo sword. But if you continue to be tactless, I don't mind changing a weapon." Lei Dianying still had that indifferent expression, and it was obvious that he still didn't take Camus and Vermouth seriously.
"Now, can you answer my question?" Although it was a question, the strength in Lei Dianying's words made it clear that if Camus and Vermouth still made small movements and did not answer properly, Lei Dianying would use a real knife to teach them a lesson.
Vermouth raised her head slightly and looked at the person opposite who was holding a bamboo sword that was not a weapon but could easily subdue them. Then she slowly and carefully raised her hands over her ears to show that she had no hostility now.
“I’m so sorry!” Vermouth said softly, trying to be sincere. “I actually had no choice but to do this. The boss of our organization got a shocking piece of news from somewhere—it is said that there is a person who has survived for hundreds of years in the Narukami Grand Shrine! This news is so shocking that the boss is eager to find out whether it is true. So, he sent us here to investigate and collect relevant information.”
As she spoke, Vermouth's beautiful and deep eyes never left Lei Dianying's face. She stared at him intently, not missing any subtle changes in expression that might occur.
But what disappointed her was that when she mentioned the information that someone had lived for hundreds of years, Lei Dianying's expression did not change at all. This either further showed that the Minister of Inazuma was very cunning and had a very good control of his emotions, or there was no such thing as someone who had lived for hundreds of years, so Lei Dianying had no reaction.
However, further exploration is needed to determine which of the following situations this is the case.
Thinking of this, Vermouth continued, "I wonder if this little... lady," Minister Inazuma already has a child, so she shouldn't be called Miss, but calling her Madam wouldn't be abrupt, "Have you ever heard of the name of the 'Pandora' stone?"
Lei Dianying did not answer. She moved the bamboo sword in her hand closer to the necks of Vermouth and Camus, almost touching their skin. Even her tone of voice became colder:
"You didn't tell the truth! And you still haven't answered me, what on earth were you looking for near the sacred cherry tree?!"
At this point, Lei Dianying showed a rare slightly surprised expression, "Are you looking for the 'Pandora's' stone you just mentioned?" His tone seemed a little incredible.
Vermouth looked at Lei Dianying in silence. Although she didn't say anything directly, her eyes showed her meaning - she confirmed Lei Dianying's guess.
Lei Dianying looked at them strangely for a while, then continued to ask, "Which organization are you from?"
"We will never betray our boss or leak this kind of information!" Camu replied with a righteous look on his face.
Then, as if she was afraid that Lei Dianying would be angered by Camus and kill him in a fit of rage, Vermouth quickly said to her partner, "Well... I can tell you our code name, ma'am, but you must be careful with the bamboo sword in your hand!"
As if she was worried about being implicated, Vermouth quickly said her own code name - Butterfly, and also said Camus' code name - Wolf.
Vermouth did not intend to reveal her identity as a member of Camus' Black Organization, and it just so happened that Spider suddenly attacked the people of the Teyvat Organization, so his organization could make use of it.
Vermouth doesn't care whether her lies will be exposed later, but it would be better if the Teyvat organization would confront the "Zoo" because of her words.
But to be honest, she really didn't know the name of the organization. No matter how hard Lei Dianjie pressed the question, she couldn't get an answer. She couldn't just say "mysterious organization" or "zoo"...
Camus' eyes wandered for a moment. As expected of Vermouth, she came up with code names for the two of them so quickly.
Wolfe...sounds pretty handsome, so from now on he is Wolfe.
Lei Dianying looked at Vermouth, "Butterfly..." Then he moved his gaze slightly and looked at Camus, "And Wolf..." Lei Dianying murmured softly, seemingly thinking about something, "Animal code names..."
But I had some doubts in my heart. According to Shen Zi, the guests visiting the shrine today should be members of the Black Organization, and what was the matter with this strange code name that I had never heard of before?
Lei Dianying made up her mind in less than a second. It was unlikely that the information from the Son of God was wrong, and she had never heard of these two code names, not even from the spiders trapped in the Qun Yu Pavilion. So the code names should have been made up by these two people on the spot, which was quite quick-witted.
