Chapter 252 Okiya Subaru Eavesdrops
And the way Yuantai addressed Ying just now was...Grandma?
Xia Xi tried hard to hold back her smile, patted Yuan Tai's head, and corrected the children: "Although Ying is the elder of Lingren and the others, she doesn't actually look old. Look at Zhongli, he looks quite young too, doesn't he? So you can call Ying Auntie, or Sister."
"Just call her Auntie." Guangyan thought for a while and decided that it would be better to call her Auntie. After all, Uncle Zhongli didn't look like he was from the same generation as Sister Xia Xi and the others. And since Miss Ying was a friend of Uncle Zhongli, it would be better to call her Auntie.
Okiya Subaru narrowed his eyes slightly, and he noticed the three words in Xia Xi's words just now - "looks like".
This means that Miss Ying, like Zhongli, is actually older than she looks. This reminds him of the "Thousand-Faced Witch" Vermouth.
Could it be that Miss Ying and Mr. Zhongli are also as old as Vermouth? If so, could this also be related to their special status in the Teyvat organization? Okiya Subaru pondered in his heart.
"Is Miss Ying so powerful? Even Xia Xi is no match for her!" Xiaolan said in surprise.
After all, after such a long period of contact, Mao Lilan is very familiar with Xia Xi's strength. Now that she knows there is someone who is even stronger than Xia Xi, she feels a little unbelievable.
"This is normal." Xia Xi waved her hands and said nonchalantly, "I'm not a master, and I've been beaten up several times before."
When the children, including Huiyuan, heard what Xia Xi said, they couldn't help but show surprised expressions. They really couldn't imagine what someone more powerful than Sister Xia Xi looked like.
"Okay, let's talk about this kind of thing later. The kids need to go to bed early because they have to get up early tomorrow."
Xia Xi saw that it was getting late outside and she had to go to the preliminary competition tomorrow to cheer for He Ye and Barbara, so she told the children to go to bed quickly.
The adults, including Hattori Heiji and Okiya Subaru, were left behind by Sonoko to make cheering items with Xiaolan and Xia Xi.
Originally, I was only planning to do it for He Ye, the three of them would be enough.
But today, knowing that Xia Xi's friends Barbara and Nel would also participate in the competition, naturally their cheering items also needed to be made, so Hattori Heiji and Okiya Subaru were also left behind to help.
When things were almost done, Subaru Okiya made the excuse that he needed to go to the bathroom, and left the room after saying so.
As he walked towards the restroom, he took a quick look at the environment of Kamisato's house.
Kamisato House adopts a typical Japanese architectural style, with a simple and exquisite overall design, focusing on details and the use of space. From the gate to the inner courtyard, a large number of natural elements such as wood, bamboo, stone and a large number of cherry trees are incorporated into the building.
Subaru Okiya had some knowledge of the layout characteristics of this type of building, so he was able to roughly infer the location of the room and study of the head of the Kamisato family.
He looked around cautiously, and after making sure that there was no one else around, he quickly avoided the surveillance cameras and cleverly turned into a secluded path.
Subaru Okiya identified the direction, then walked lightly towards Kamisato Ayato's study.
When he walked not far from the study, he found a faint light coming from inside the study, which made him happy because it meant that there was someone inside. He stopped and quietly observed the surrounding environment to make sure that he was not discovered.
Looking around, Subaru Okiya noticed that there were two servants guarding the door of the study. Knowing that he could not enter the study from the main door, he turned around and walked in another direction.
Subaru Okiya walked around to the side of the study and prepared to approach the study through the window to better understand the situation inside.
The study window was closed, and a ray of warm light came through the gap.
Subaru Okiya approached the window carefully, trying not to make any noise.
He pressed his body against the wall and through the gap in the window saw that the head of the Kamisato family whom he had met before was talking to Thomas, who claimed to be a housekeeper. The voice could be faintly heard through the gap.
"Have you found the criminal who destroyed the finals venue?" Kamisato Ayato's tone was a little cold.
"Master, not yet. But with the help of the Takano Group, we have already identified several competing suspects," Thomas replied respectfully.
"Okay, very good. Then let's confirm who did it as soon as possible." Kamisato Ayato ordered.
"Yes," Thomas replied straightforwardly. Then he asked hesitantly, "Should we notify the police after we find out who the criminal is?"
Hearing Thomas' question, Subaru Okiya narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he was somewhat interested in Kamisato Ayato's answer.
He then heard Kamisato Ayato chuckle and reply, "Oh, there's no need for that. I naturally have a way to make them pay double the price."
