However, when she first tried to contact the Traveler, she did not intend to dress up as Battousai. After all, as Ningguang's special intelligence officer, not many people in the Thousand Rocks Army knew her.
It was only after considering what happened at the ceremony that she changed her mind.
Even if Bai Luo said it, this matter had nothing to do with him.
But in Ye Lan's opinion, he disappeared for such a long time inexplicably on the eve of the ceremony to invite the immortals. Even if this matter really had nothing to do with him, he should be planning something.
So Ye Lan planned to test Bai Luo.
How to test it? Naturally, through intelligence.
As an intelligence worker, Ye Lan understands how important first-hand intelligence is to every intelligence worker.
So she deliberately dressed up as Battousai, and specifically picked a Sengan soldier who knew Battousai to be present, and jumped out to save the foreign traveler.
In this way, the news that Battousai saved the traveler would spread.
Since the instructor has always said that he is Battousai, what will be his reaction when he finds out that someone is pretending to be Battousai
There is no need to guess, the first person he would look for is her, who used to have frequent contact with Battousai.
Ye Lan intended to use this information to determine what Bai Luo was doing now.
If he had contacted Ye Lan through the Youqi Wrist Lan at that time and asked her for relevant information, it would prove that he was not busy with anything important.
on the contrary.
It was obvious that she had already disguised herself as Battousai and saved the traveler during the day.
But Bai Luo actually contacted her through Youqi Wrist Lan only at night.
That means this guy has been busy with a very important plan during this period, and this plan is so important that he couldn't even spare the time to analyze what happened today. He only discovered this incident when he had some free time.
[Really? You will be punished for lying.]
The Youqi wrist responded again.
However, after seeing the message sent by Bai Luo, Ye Lan raised her eyebrows slightly.
Yo? Are you trying to scare me
According to her judgment, Bai Luo should be busy with some important matters at the moment and cannot spare the time.
Saying this is just to scare her.
Otherwise, based on her understanding of Bai Luo, the other party would not have questioned her through the Youqi Wrist Lantern, but would have appeared directly beside her.
[Then do you dare to say that the assassination of the Emperor has nothing to do with you?]
Ye Lan, who was confident, responded to Bai Luo using the mysterious wrist guard.
While replying to Bai Luo, she took off her clothes, walked into the bathroom, and sat in the hot water that had been prepared in advance.
The originally boiling hot water, after being left for a while, reaches just the right temperature, making it perfect for a good soak after training.
[Do you think there is a possibility that the person who killed the Rock King was actually Morax? ]
Sitting in the bathtub, Ye Lan burst into laughter after seeing the message sent by Bai Luo.
The one who killed the Rock King was Morax? There is no joke funnier than this.
The mysterious wrist light lit up again, and she replied to the other party.
[You may be able to fool foreigners with this, but who among the people of Liyue doesn't know that the name of the Geo King is Morax? ]
So, sometimes things are just magical.
It was clear that what Ming Luo said was true, but no one believed him.
[Tsk, I think you'll tear down the roof if you don't get beaten for three days.]
After a long silence, Bai Luo sent this message.
Ye Lan, who was sitting in the bathtub playing with the hot water, curled her lips slightly when she saw these words.
She knew why Bai Luo took so long to send the message.
Unlike her, Bai Luo has not yet fully mastered the code of the Youqi Wrist Lantern.
So on the other side, this guy should be flipping through the code book anxiously and trying to send a message to her.
so
[Can you hit it? ]
After the slightly provocative message was sent, Ye Lan's face once again showed a happy smile.
Because she knew that Bai Luo was definitely busy with something important outside and had no time to come back.
That way, she could make good use of the Youqi Arm Lantern to pay him back for teasing her in the past.
In this way... ... Huh
The smile on her lips gradually froze, and Ye Lan's eyes began to look around.
Because after she sent this message, she suddenly felt like something was staring at her.
And this feeling is the same as when Bai Luo came to harass her at night before...!
If Ye Lan raised her head, she would find that above her head, there was a pair of bloodshot eyes staring at her.
And this eye is the sign that Bai Luo is releasing his quantum teleportation.
"Um?"
Ye Lan, who was originally sitting in the bathtub, suddenly realized that something was wrong.
It wasn't the feeling of being watched, because that feeling had disappeared.
First, the water level in the tub seemed to rise. The tub, which was not quite full, suddenly overflowed, as if someone had added another bucket of water.
Secondly... ... the place where I was sitting was originally a hard wooden board, why is it soft now? It's like... ... it's another person's leg
A slightly cold hand was placed on her shoulder, and her heart almost stopped beating.
“Shua—”
The intertwined silk threads emerged from the bathtub and wound around the person behind her.
Ye Lan picked up Ruoshui who was lying next to her, and the arrow that could break the deadlock also gathered on the drawn bow.
"Wait! It's me! Don't shoot!"
Bai Luo, who was soaked all over, immediately raised his hands and made a gesture of surrender.
He never thought that he would come at such a good time.
At the same time, he was somewhat relieved.
Fortunately, Ye Lan is not the Eightfold Son of God, so he won’t discharge electricity into the water.
Otherwise, it wouldn't be so simple for me to be tied up.
Chapter 625 Trust between People
"What is the most important thing between people? Trust!"
"What is trust? Trust is the bridge to build and maintain relationships, and the hub to unlock and eliminate guardedness."
"Your behavior will completely destroy the bridge of trust between us, completely overturn the boat of friendship, and shatter the hub of communication."
"So please give me enough trust, Miss Ye Lan."
Looking at Ye Lan who was sitting opposite him in the bathtub with her legs crossed, and then looking at the silk threads wrapped around his body, Bai Luo tried to use his tongue skills to impress her.
At least he shouldn't be tied up!
It was a mistake. It was really a mistake.
Bai Luo never thought that Ye Lan would take a bath at this time.
The latter is good at controlling water elements, and after Bai Luo used teleportation, quantization cannot be used temporarily.
He could only let the other party tie him up.
Still tied up.
The only thing that surprised him was that although Ye Lan tied him up tightly, it was not so tight as to leave any marks on his body.
"But I still think it would be more appropriate to tie it up."
The feet stretched out from the slightly rippling water and stepped directly on Bai Luo's chest.
She tried to use this method to keep a distance between the two of them.
As for whether Bai Luo would see anything.
Haven’t you already watched everything you need to watch
"So it's fun to pretend to be me and trick people?"
Looking at the little feet tapping on his chest, Bai Luo showed an expression of disgust on his face.
He doesn't like this.
He prefers kicking others rather than being kicked.
It was a pity that his legs were also tied, otherwise he would definitely let the other party know that his chest was harder.
"Oh? The man disguised as Battousai is a special intelligence officer under Lord Tenquanxing. What does he have to do with me, Ye Lan?"
Sitting in the bathtub and changing into a very comfortable position, Ye Lan spoke out.
That slightly provocative expression was not concealed at all.
She had no idea that she was playing with fire.
"Then why did the special intelligence officer want to dress up as Battousai? Wouldn't it be better to dress up as the unlucky Mond who got scratched by a rock while fishing at the beach?"
Bai Luo especially emphasized the words "unlucky Mond people".
Ye Lan liked to do this in the past. That was why she fell into the trap set by Bai Luo and was tortured to death by Bai Luo. She couldn't get out of it for a long time.
"How would I know that? I'm not a special intelligence officer."
"... ..."
Did this woman transfer the fat from her chest to her face
How shameless of you to say that.
"Okay, but if Miss Ye Lan is very familiar with the special intelligence officer, please tell her to take good care of the traveler while she is in Liyue and not to make things too difficult for her."
Without dwelling too much on the previous events, Bai Luo changed the subject and brought the topic to Ying.
And his words also caught Ye Lan's attention.
"You know her well?"
Regarding the matter of the traveler, Ye Lan has already sent people to investigate.
According to the information sent by his subordinates, this traveler has more interactions with Mond officials and should have nothing to do with Bai Luo, right
It can only be said that Ying has never mentioned her relationship with Bai Luo to outsiders.
Maybe it was to protect his brother, or maybe he simply didn't want to expose this matter before confirming that Bai Luo was his brother.
In short, not many people know the relationship between Bai Luo and Ying.
To outsiders, there might be some hatred between them.
After all, when he was in Mondstadt, Ying did a lot of things against the Fatui.
"I can't say I'm familiar with her, but she's related to my plan."
After noticing that Ye Lan's foot that was pressing on his chest had loosened its force a little, Bai Luo simply changed to a more comfortable position and began to enjoy the hot bath.
But compared with Inazuma's hot spring bath... there's no comparison between the two.
"plan?"
The words from Bai Luo's mouth caught Ye Lan's attention.
She could sense that Bai Luo was probably plotting something recently, but no matter how she investigated, she could not find any corresponding traces.
At most, they found out that Bai Luo was also sending people to keep an eye on travelers from foreign countries.
