"It's very tricky. ---" Sevini looked at Xu Yi and frowned deeply.
"Tricky?" Xu Yi looked puzzled.
Just half an hour ago, he entered Bangta City again because he had something to do. However, he accidentally met Baron Bilier on the road and found that he was actually shopping with a girl who didn't know where he came from, looking leisurely. , suddenly felt very puzzled, and immediately ran to the city lord's mansion to see Sevigny to ask for details.
At this time, three days had passed since the car accident in Severny. After the two cars collided, although neither Sevigny nor Baron Billier was seriously injured, Baron Billier was still taken to the City Lord's Mansion for questioning.
Xu Yi originally thought that apart from such a serious incident, Baron Billier would at least be sentenced to prison for a period of time and teach him a lesson, but he didn't expect that he would be able to go shopping in just three days, with a relaxed look on his face. It's not like anything happened.
This made Xu Yi very puzzled.
Could it be that if such a serious thing happened, Sevini planned to let it go so easily
"What can I do if I don't let it go?" Sevini sighed softly. "The very next day, the Stark family sent someone to pay me a compensation of 500,000 gold coins, and in accordance with the rules among nobles, asked Baron Billil to express his most sincere condolences to me. I'm sorry. Duke Stark even apologized to his father in person. It can be said that it gave me enough face. If I continue to do something to Baron Bilier, it will cause dissatisfaction among other nobles in the kingdom and make them feel that the royal family is deliberately doing it. Bullying other nobles."
Xu Yi was suddenly stunned: "Is there any mistake? Sevini, you are the royal highness! After such a serious car accident, is it enough to simply apologize?"
"It's not serious, right?" Sevini glanced at Xu Yi. On the contrary, it was a little strange to have such a big reaction from Xu Yi. "I didn't even have a scratch. On the contrary, Baron Bilier vomited several mouthfuls of blood. Did you see it too?"
"He was the one who caused the accident, okay! Even if he dies because of this, it is all his own responsibility, and he deserves it!" Xu Yiwei said angrily. "This guy was still drunk at the time! If we really want to be held accountable, all the blame should be on him. If you ask me, a guy like him should be put directly in jail, otherwise sooner or later he will kill someone !”
"Do you think I don't want to?" Sevini rolled her eyes at Xu Yi, and then sighed helplessly. "But Xu Yi, even if you look through all the laws in the entire kingdom, there is no law that punishes people for driving a magic motorcycle after hitting someone. Or to be more precise, there is no law in the kingdom that targets magic motorcycles. This time he was forced to apologize because he bumped into me, the princess. If he bumped into an ordinary person, then even if he was killed, it still wouldn't be considered intentional homicide. Gold coins, you don’t even need an apology.”
"This..." Xu Yi thought for a while and smiled bitterly.
Yes, the magic motorcycle is a novelty for the Lampali Kingdom, and even for the entire Sainz continent. How could there be any laws against magic motorcycles
In fact, if Baron Bilier hadn't happened to bump into the noble Princess Sevigny this time, I'm afraid he would have done nothing wrong.
Xu Yi thought for a moment. He continued: "Well, Your Royal Highness, aside from the responsibility that Baron Billier should bear for this matter, don't you plan to do something with this matter? I think... you can even blame Billier. The baron intended to kill you intentionally. This must be a very serious crime, right?"
"No." Sevigny shook his head slightly. "I understand what you mean, but... it's not the time yet."
"Not in time?" Xu Yi frowned. "
"Yes, the time has come and we can't do this now." Sevini paused, nodded again, and added: "This is the common judgment of many people on the situation, you don't have to doubt it."
"Does it also include Earl Satsuma's opinion?" Xu Yi asked again.
"Yes."
Xu Yi thought for a moment and nodded slightly: "Well, I won't be involved in these things because I don't have the ability for the time being. But Sevini, at least, I hope to use this matter to attract the kingdom's attention to magic motorcycles. "If a traffic law can be established as soon as possible according to my previous suggestions, I think it will be beneficial to the entire kingdom."
"Well, I'm looking for someone to do this." At this point, Sevini suddenly laughed. "Speaking of which, because of this incident, no one dared to object to any of my proposals, and things went very smoothly. Xu Yi, should you be grateful for this accident?"
Xu Yi stared at Sevini with a serious expression and shook his head slowly and seriously: "No, I would rather that this traffic law is not established at all, and I don't want you to be in such danger."
Seeing the rare extremely serious expression and extremely sincere eyes on Xu Yi's face, Sevini suddenly felt a strong warmth surge in her heart, and her pretty face couldn't help but blush slightly.
After a while, she seemed unable to bear Xu Yi's direct gaze and lowered her head. After a pause, she raised her head again.
Although the blush on her face was a little deeper, she still insisted on meeting Xu Yi's eyes without evading them.
"Xu Yi, speaking of which, I haven't thanked you yet. Thank you for risking your life to protect me that day."
Xu Yi smiled and shook his head: "It's nothing. No matter from any angle, this is what I should do."
"No matter from which angle?" Sevini looked at Xu Yi thoughtfully. "So what are the specific angles?"
"Well... first of all, it must be the most basic human perspective. When I see others in danger, as a normal human being, how can I not think of protecting them?"
"Oh? What about the other angle?" Sevini was actually a little bit chasing after him.
Xu Yi smiled and replied: "There is another angle, of course, because you are Her Royal Highness. Think about it, risking your own life to protect Her Royal Highness, what an important achievement it is."
Sevini also laughed, glanced at Xu Yi, paused, but still insisted on asking: "So... are there other angles?"
Facing Sevini's staring gaze, Xu Yi turned his head slightly in embarrassment, hesitated for a while, and then said softly: "If you have to say it, of course it's because you are a girl, and I am a man. As Men, it’s natural to protect girls.”
"Really?" Sevini clapped her hands with joy. "So you still treat me as an ordinary girl."
Xu Yi glared at her angrily: "I said... are you kidding me? Regardless of your identity, you are not only a girl, but also a very beautiful girl, okay?"
Sevini narrowed her eyes and smiled: "I'm very happy to hear your comments. So Xu Yi, I hope you can treat me more as an ordinary girl in the future, instead of always treating me as your Royal Highness. Treated well?"
Xu Yi shrugged: "I'm afraid it's hard for me to agree to your request, because your identity as Her Royal Highness cannot be changed. But having said that, I treat you the least as Her Royal Highness, right? Others will be like me. Don’t I use honorifics to you at all in private?”
"Well, I like this feeling very much, and I hope you can continue to maintain this attitude in the future."
Seeing Sevini with a happy face, Xu Yi felt a little funny.
Although she has always behaved like a qualified royal highness from the first time she met Sevigny, always showing a majestic, rational and calm appearance, in the final analysis, she is still a woman in her early twenties. The girls also have a side of ordinary girls.
Perhaps, she really hopes to have someone who can communicate with her on an equal footing.
Xu Yi and Sevini continued to discuss the details of traffic regulations, and then discussed the feasibility of temporarily implementing traffic management regulations in Bangta City before Xu Yi left the city lord's palace.
Just as he walked out of the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, a black magic car suddenly drove quickly from a distance.
Xu Yi was about to dodge, but the magic car made a harsh braking sound and stopped just two or three meters away from him.
Xu Yi frowned and looked at the magic car. At a glance, he saw that sitting in the driver's seat of this magic car was Baron Billier.
Seeing Xu Yi's glance, Baron Billier even made a provocative gesture towards him.
Xu Yi sneered, walked over, knocked on the car window, and twitched his finger at Baron Billier, gesturing for him to get down.
Baron Billier simply opened the door and got out, stood up and looked directly at Xu Yi with a provocative face.
"Hey, isn't this President Xu? What? Did you just meet Her Royal Highness? Are you going to file a complaint against me with Her Royal Highness? I told you just now, don't waste time! Her Royal Highness can't touch me. As for the You, a little businessman, don’t even dream!"
Xu Yi glanced at him and ignored him at all. He caught a glimpse of someone sitting in the passenger seat and gestured to him to get out of the car as well.
The man got off the car, and Xu Yi recognized him as a minor nobleman in the city. He probably got close to Baron Billier, so he mingled with him.
"Is this magic car yours?" Xu Yi asked him.
The little noble's attitude towards Xu Yi was as arrogant as Baron Billier's. When he heard Xu Yi's question, he raised his face, turned his nostrils to the sky, and snorted coldly: "What? It's mine? President Xu, do you have any objections?" ?”
Xu Yi glanced at him and ignored him, but walked to the head of the magic car, raised his right hand, and the magic power flowed rapidly in his body.
A moment later, a fireball condensed in Xu Yi's hand.
Seeing Xu Yi's actions, Baron Bilier and the young noble were surprised at the same time.
"What do you want to do?"
As soon as the two of them finished speaking, Xu Yi's right hand fell instantly, and the fireball hit the magic car directly.
"Boom—" (To be continued...) u
