Chapter 106 The Lady Has Arrived
"I found the charlatan I had glimpsed at the bottom of the Grey River that day at the Grand Hotel Debord, and it was from him that I learned the truth."
"Kujavina has already sent men to capture Ranach," Keller heard this, and after a moment's thought, casually asked:
"So it was Cheie who was in charge of capturing that person named Ranah, right?"
Upon hearing Kailu's question, Le Yi remained silent for a moment before replying, "There's a 70% chance. I asked that foolish envoy..."
He said the child wore a fox mask, obscuring his face, but could be seen to have blue hair and wielded two short swords resembling daggers.
Therefore, I speculate that it must be Che Hui. But this is just speculation, since she's wearing a mask and I can't see her face; only certain features resemble Che Hui.
Furthermore, the foolish envoys claimed the child was a boy. While you acknowledge that Chehui can mimic a boy's voice, it's premature to draw conclusions.
After all, based on your previous speculation, this matter could also be…
When Le Yi mentioned this, he glanced at Kai Le, and then he was surprised to find that Kai Le had been staring at him intently. So he asked with some suspicion:
"Is there... something on my face?" Kailer didn't respond, but instead moved closer to Leyi's face.
He then murmured softly, "It's changed again." Upon hearing this, Le Yi looked completely bewildered, having no idea what he meant.
"Changed again? What changed again?" Keller pondered for a moment, remained silent for a long time, then gently shook his head and said.
"It's alright, let's talk about Ranach first. What are your plans for the next move?" Seeing that Kailer didn't elaborate, Leyi figured it wasn't anything important.
He then replied, "I once inquired about Ranach's whereabouts with Navia, so I know where he is. It will be afternoon..."
"I'll go and investigate," Le Yi said, but in her heart she couldn't help but ponder.
"Kujavina should have already investigated those energy residues left at the bottom of the Gray River during the battle. That level of energy..."
He only sent a child to solve the problem, which seems far too hasty. He should have understood that that level of power was beyond the capabilities of an ordinary child.
I've already dealt with all those Fool soldiers who fought against me before. Do you think he wouldn't know that? If that child is stronger than those Fool soldiers...
Could that child be Kirie? Is Kirie stronger than the entire group of Fools?
While lost in thought, Le Yi didn't pay attention to where she was going and just kept walking forward, while Kai Le, who was always beside her...
He was indeed watching the road the whole time, but then he noticed someone coming out from around the corner ahead, and when he saw this person...
Kailer immediately put on a surprised expression, and because Leyi wasn't watching where she was going, she ended up bumping her head straight into the person's thigh.
"Hey!" Le Yi bumped into the person and stumbled back a few steps, then lost her balance and fell flat on her backside.
"Little one, you can't be distracted while walking, it's very dangerous to walk like that."
Just as Le Yi sat down on the ground, the person in front of her slowly squatted down and gently spoke these words to her.
Le Yi, who had been somewhat distracted, snapped back to reality upon hearing the voice, and even seemed unable to believe her ears.
Finally, he slowly raised his head and saw a person standing in front of him with blond hair covering half of his eyes.
She wore red and black fur shawls on both shoulders, and red capes hung on both sides of her back. Below her waist, there were three long skirts that reached the ground.
And looking at the two huge slimes on this person, it's clear that if this person has children in the future, the children will definitely not go hungry.
Le Yi was also shocked when she saw the woman in front of her. "Ma'am!" Le Yi looked at the woman in front of her, still somewhat bewildered.
He couldn't understand why the woman was here; his mind was in turmoil. Her presence here was no longer unexpected.
Le Yi was probably racking his brains trying to figure out why the lady was there; he was just staring blankly at the scene.
Looking at the woman's face, and noticing the child staring intently at her, and not recognizing her either, the woman wondered if he was the new child the Hearth House had taken in.
"What's wrong, little one? Is there something on my face?" This gentle voice immediately brought Le Yi back to reality.
I figured I couldn't understand why the lady was here, so I had to resort to my best trick once again.
Then, Le Yi slowly stood up, feigning a shy demeanor, and walked back to Kai Le's side, asking in a low voice...
"Kailer, who is this pretty lady?" Le Yi asked in a low voice, keeping it at just the right level.
The woman naturally heard this, and upon hearing "pretty sister," a delighted smile appeared on her face.
Kailu was also puzzled by Leyi's shy appearance, but after a moment of silence, she explained to Leyi...
“Ah, this lady is Mother’s colleague. The children at the Hearth House all call her Lady Sister,” Kelly explained to Ley.
The woman slowly walked up to the two of them, then gently knelt down, looking at Le Yi with a smile.
"Little one, what did you call me just now?" Looking at the woman's pleased expression, Le Yi thought she had gotten away with it.
She then continued to feign shyness, stammering and unable to utter a single word, before finally managing to squeeze out those four words after a long while.
"Pretty, beautiful, sister," although Le Yi's appearance was no longer as cute as before,
But when a 9-year-old called her "pretty sister," the woman chuckled very quietly.
Then he took a bag of snacks out of the bag behind him and handed it to Le Yi, saying, "Little one, what's your name?"
When Le Yi saw the woman give her a bag of snacks, she was puzzled and didn't know what was going on. She even couldn't help but think, "Could this woman have poisoned it?"
But Leyi could only suppress her nervousness and slowly say, "I, my name is Leyi Xuenaizfna, thank you, sister."
The lady seemed a little confused when she heard this, but then she didn't think much of it, gently patted Xue Naizifuna's head, and said,
"From now on, I'll call you Leyi," the woman said, then took out a bag of snacks from her bag and handed it to Kaile.
After taking it, Kailer said, "Thank you, ma'am." Hearing Kailer's words, the lady patted Kailer's head and said...
"Little Kelly, it seems like I've only seen the two of you since I arrived at the Hearth House. Where have the other little ones gone?" Kelly replied.
"Our mother told us a fairy tale today, and everyone is sitting in the room over there playing games now."
When the woman heard the fairy tale, her smile suddenly faded, and she became somewhat displeased.
But the thought of the two children beside him made him immediately hide his displeasure. Though it was only for a moment, it was still noticed by Kailer.
"Then I'll go find the little ones first. Are you two coming along too?" Kelly simply shook her head slightly and said after hearing the lady's suggestion.
"Leyi, my friends, and I have made plans to play hide-and-seek outside. Sister, why don't you go find the other children first? I'll go tell my friends too."
"They'll be so happy to see you, ma'am," the lady said, and simply smiled. "Okay, then we'll wait for you inside."
My sister brought lots of candy today, so you'd better hurry, or you might not get any!
After the woman finished speaking, she went to the room where the children were. After she left, the sound of the door closing was heard.
Le Yi immediately relaxed, patting her chest and panting heavily, "Holy crap, what's a lady doing here!"
Seeing Leyi like this, Kailu quickly pulled him to a suitable place to chat.
