"Not quite...right?"
After a moment of hesitation, Bai Luo roughly understood what was going on.
It turned out that when he rescued Aratake Ichito, he was seen by the dying Masakatsu.
So Zhengsheng thought that he appeared in the prison with the intention of rescuing the ghost.
Chapter 915: Xiao Palace’s Goodwill
There is nothing wrong with Zhengsheng's guess.
Because after that ghost was imprisoned, he had a brief exchange with the other party.
"Don't worry, I just came here to eat. It won't be long before someone rescues me!"
That’s what the ghost said at the time.
Originally, Masakatsu didn't take his words seriously. After all, once he was in the prison of the Bugyoso, it would be a pipe dream to get out without suffering for ten days or so.
What he didn't expect was that someone came to rescue him that night.
In addition, the Fatui in the innermost part was not rescued by Bai Luo himself, but by the Fatui hiding among the jailers.
So in his daze, Zhengsheng did not realize that Bai Luo and the Fatui were actually in the same group.
"Yes, Master Zhengsheng entered a little later than those people. He once did business with a group of Zhidong people, so after observing them for a period of time, he was sure that those people were members of the Fatui."
Xiao Gong explained.
"... ... Master Zhengsheng's business is really big. He even managed to keep it going until winter."
Bai Luo certainly knew that those people were the Fatui, and that they were rescued personally by him, the Fatui executive officer.
"Yes, I heard that he is a big shot in Zhidong. I don't know where he heard that Master Zhengsheng can make... ... His craftsmanship is very good, so he specially asked his men to travel across the ocean to buy it here."
After all, the fact that Master Zhengsheng made the Eye of God is quite sensitive.
After weighing the pros and cons, Xiao Gong did not say clearly what it was.
"The nobles in the Kingdom of Zhidong are just guys with nothing to do after having enough food. It's understandable that they would do something like this."
Touching his chin, Bai Luo began to think.
Which bastard had nothing better to do than to come to Inazuma to buy the Eye of God? Even an executive officer like him didn't notice it.
It seems that I am still a little lazy about my work.
"The power of the Fatui is not something that ordinary people like you and me can contend with. Even though the Tianling Fengxing people are mobilizing so many troops, they actually don't dare to touch the Fatui. In the end, the ones who will bear the blame will definitely be us who saved Mr. Zhengsheng, and you, Mr. Bai."
Looking at Master Zhengsheng beside him with a little worry, Xiao Gong finally stated his purpose in a real sense.
Xiao Gong and his group were the last to enter the prison.
But because they had the right time, place and people on their side, they didn't leave any obvious traces after entering. If you want to catch them... it's still very difficult.
But Bai Luo is different.
According to Master Zhengsheng, when Bai Luo rescued the ghosts, other people in the prison also tried to ask Bai Luo for help.
But Bai Luo ignored them.
So after Bai Luo left, this group of people said that they would report him to the leaders of the Fengxing clan and take revenge on him.
If Bai Luo covered his face, he wouldn't be afraid of their denunciation.
The problem is that Bai Luo appeared on camera in person throughout the entire process. Even Master Zhengsheng, a half-dead wounded soldier, remembered him, let alone those ferocious criminals
"So you must be careful during this period. If you really have nowhere to go, you can stay with me temporarily. I will go to Miss Kamisato's house this afternoon and ask for a note saying that the fireworks here are ordered by the company's magistrate. Then the group of magistrates will definitely not dare to search this place."
Tianling Fengxing did not dare to arrest the people of the Fools, nor could he catch those who were masked.
The only unlucky one was Bai Luo who was hated the whole time.
This is why she came to Bai Luo.
"I see, that's what you're doing."
To be honest, after Bai Luo came to this world, he was either on guard against this or on guard against that.
Even if he cares, it is just him caring about others.
This was the first time that someone cared about him so much.
As a result, when he first learned about Xiao Palace's true purpose, he was stunned for a moment.
I even had the thought that this girl was lying to me.
After all, if it were him, the first thing he would think of is whether to take advantage of this opportunity to put all the blame on himself, the unlucky guy.
Instead of risking being caught, he approached me and told me about this.
However, based on his understanding of Xiao Palace, the possibility that the other party had malicious intentions was almost zero.
This girl really cares about him.
"Don't worry. Since I dare to do these things without covering my face, I must have my background. But you... ...don't do such things in the future."
As the person involved, Bai Luo knew better than anyone how dangerous Xiao Gong's actions were.
When he left, he didn't communicate with Xiao Gong and the others at all.
He even pretended to be unaware and threw the keys onto the road in front of them.
In other words, without knowing Bai Luo's acting skills, Xiao Gong couldn't even be completely sure whether Bai Luo deliberately threw the key in front of her.
But under such circumstances, she still chose to risk being caught, contact Bai Luo, and bring him here.
"Don't worry, I believe in my judgment, and I believe in you."
Revealing the kind of enthusiastic smile that is unique to fire-type characters, Xiao Gong said without hesitation.
In fact, the reason she said this was entirely because of Bai Luo's kindness towards her.
She noticed it when they first met.
This big boy who loves to laugh always has an inexplicable kindness in his eyes when facing her.
At first, she thought the other party was her father's client, and even asked him for the special note used in fireworks shops.
But it was also from then on that she realized that it was the other party's first time here.
It was precisely because of the other party's kindness that she responded with kindness.
"Is this really okay?"
After sending Bai Luo out, Xiao Gong still looked a little worried.
That’s right, in her impression, Bai Luo is still the stranger who came to Inazuma from a foreign country.
At this time in Inazuma, it would be difficult for a foreigner like him to survive without the support of the locals.
"Don't worry, I know what's going on."
Bai Luo waved his hand and said.
This turmoil can be completely said to be caused by him, and he is also the mastermind behind the scenes.
It would be strange if anything happened to him.
"If you need help, remember to come to me with a note. If I can help, I will definitely not refuse."
"Yes, thank you."
After waving his hand, Bai Luo disappeared on the deserted stone road as the other party watched.
Perhaps Xiao Gong never imagined that in Bai Luo's memory, there was a game that was almost the same as the continent of Teyvat.
In the game, as Bai Luo's first main C, she accompanied Bai Luo through many difficulties.
Perhaps because of this, Bai Luo subconsciously showed his kindness to this enthusiastic girl.
After all, that was countless days and nights of companionship.
Meanwhile... ... on the other side
Inside the rebuilt Fatui base, several core members looked at the empty streets and gradually began to doubt their lives.
"The Executor is missing again?"
Chapter 916: Highly Efficient Fools
When Bai Luo slowly arrived at the new base of the Fatui, it was already afternoon.
However, the Fatui were still very patient. They didn't even eat and waited until Bai Luo came.
If Bai Luo didn't come today, they would probably have to wait here for a whole day.
But even if he stood them up, they didn't dare to say anything more in front of Bai Luo.
After going through the simple process, except for a few core members, everyone else basically left.
These core members also informed Bai Luo of the current situation of the Fatui.
“Has it started working?”
Hearing the report from his subordinates, Bai Luo, who was still holding a cup of tea, was slightly stunned.
Although he was well aware of the strong execution ability of the Fatui, they were just rescued last night and they were already back in action today. Wasn't that a bit too fast
And it's not just fast, it's like cheating.
"It's actually like this..."
The Fatui's subordinates seemed to have anticipated Bai Luo's reaction, and they also... ... This executive officer rarely cared about the Fatui's work. Not to mention things that he could be lazy about, even if he couldn't be lazy about it, he would find a way to throw it to others to do.
It's not surprising that I don't know the details.
It turned out that even though the old man Kujo Takayuki showed complete loyalty, the Fatui were still wary of him.
They seemed to have followed Kujo Takayuki's advice and set up bases in several absolutely hidden places, but they were also clear about one thing.
These seemingly absolutely hidden locations are actually known to an outsider - that is Kujo Takayuki himself.
So they took advantage of Kujo Takayuki's inattention and secretly set up bases in other places to guard against this unknown factor.
Later it happened just as they expected.
After Lord Anatoly's battle with General Raiden, he strategically retreated to Mondstadt under the pretext of completing a mission.
And Lord Scaramucci suddenly lost contact.
The Fatui fell into a state of disarray overnight.
Some more perceptive people also anticipated that the old man Kujo Takayuki might take action.
But what these people didn't expect was that Kujo Takayuki had already fanatically worshipped General Lei Dian's thoughtless sword to the point of 100%, and he never thought that Bai Luo would be able to escape from this sword.
That night, he asked his son to lead elite soldiers to raze all the strongholds of the Fatui. While taking away the core members of the Fatui, he also killed many of the members they had developed in Inazuma.
Even some strongholds that he had not touched were noticed by him.
Kujo Takayuki thought he had eliminated all the Faints in the city, but in fact, there were still some Faints remaining in those strongholds that he had deliberately not known about, hiding among the ordinary people of Inazuma.
They could be street vendors, members of the Adventurer's Guild, or even members of the Tianling Bugyo.
In short, since they were originally from Inazuma, it was very easy for them to hide in Inazuma Castle.
As long as they don't say it, their loved ones around them won't even know that the seemingly cowardly or low-key bedside person is actually a member of the Fatui.
They were like a host computer with the power off button pressed, lurking in various places in Inazuma City, waiting for Bai Luo, the power source, to activate them.
Once reactivated, they will be able to operate faster than anyone imagined.
"Sir, this is the evidence our people have prepared during this period of time. This is enough to push that old man Kujo Takayuki off his position as magistrate."
After explaining all this, the person in charge of the base excitedly took out the information they had prepared long ago and handed it to Bai Luo.
Although they don't seem to care much, as high-ranking members of the Fatui, they are somewhat arrogant.
How could they swallow being locked up in such a dark cell and insulted by the jailers
If there weren't some of their own among the prison guards, they might have died in prison before the executioner returned.
"Don't you think it's a bit boring to just use these things to pull him down from the position of the Enlightenment?"
