As the residence of the dean of the college, the dean's official residence is naturally more luxurious and high-standard than any other place. As soon as you enter the door, you are greeted by a hall, with a row of stairs on the left and right extending upward, leading to the second floor as if covering the entire hall.
Under the leadership of the dean, Luo Zhen and his party went to the reception room where Avril summoned everyone last time.
Perhaps because it was her first time here, Xiao Zi kept looking around as if she was ready to make a move, as if she wanted to run out and play around.
Iluli is the complete opposite of Xiao Zi. His expression is serious and serious, as if he has arrived at the enemy's base camp. His high level of vigilance can be seen at a glance.
There was only one person, Ye Ye, who followed Luo Zhen obediently, his eyes always staying on Luo Zhen.
This is because behind Magnus, the six girls from the team are also staring at Luo Zhen closely, their eyes full of annoyance and hostility.
In the confrontation just now, Magnus was controlled by Luo Zhen at the first glance, and the situation where life and death depended on Luo Zhen's thoughts seemed to have raised the hostility and wariness of the six girls towards Luo Zhen to the highest level. .
It was inevitable that the same thing would happen. The six loyal girl-shaped automatons no longer dared to take their eyes away from Luo Zhen, and were even thinking about whether to strike first, which led to this performance.
Naturally, Ye Ye would not allow such a thing to happen, so she also kept a close eye on Luo Zhen, ready to take action at any time.
As a result, a group of automatons reacted in their own way, and even warned each other. On the contrary, Luo Zhen and Magnus walked slowly ahead as if nothing had happened, their eyes did not meet, their expressions Time has also been restored to its original state.
Looking at the two people like this, Avril seemed to be relieved and followed the dean beside her without saying a word.
The dean who was walking at the front was even more relaxed. As he walked forward, he opened the door of the reception room and let everyone in.
"Come, sit down."
The principal of the college entertained Luo Zhen and Magnus very kindly.
Both Luo Zhen and Magnus were not polite and sat down directly.
Of course, the position of a group of people is still very particular.
The dean is sitting on the main seat, while Luo Zhen and Magnus are sitting on the sofas on either side, facing each other, forming a triangle with the dean.
Yeye, Yiluli and Xiaozi stood behind Luo Zhen and did not sit down.
A group of six people from the team also protected Magnus's rear, lining up in a row without any slack.
Avril was standing behind the dean, with a cold and arrogant face, and a saber on her waist. She was more of a guard than a secretary.
Everyone was in position relative to each other, and the door to the reception room was slowly closed.
I don’t know if he was not in a hurry to get down to business, but the headmaster first expressed his concern to Magnus.
"Are you in good physical condition? You shouldn't have been injured just now, right?"
The dean of the college asked with great concern.
"It's no big deal if you take the trouble."
Magnus responded concisely and concisely, in a manner that was neither disrespectful nor rude, which was quite distinctive.
"That's good." The dean nodded and said to Magnus earnestly: "You are the most precious treasure of our college. You must protect yourself, otherwise I, the dean, will be embarrassed."
"...Keep it in mind." Magnus spoke slowly and silently, as if he had taken in the words.
The principal of the college then turned his head and looked in Luo Zhen's direction.
To be more precise, it should be said that one should look at the three sisters behind Luo Zhen.
"This is the highest masterpiece of the famous Master Hanaryuzai. It seems to be called "Setsugetsu Flower", right?" The dean said in admiration: "It's really incredible craftsmanship. It can make the automatic doll so lifelike, almost incomparable to human beings." What a difference, he deserves to be the number one in the bionic doll world."
The dean's words made Yeye, Yiluli and Xiaozi's hearts tighten slightly.
because...
"The dean really knows it. He must have gone through a lot of investigations, right?"
Luo Zhen smiled as if he had a deep meaning and said these words.
It is true that the three sisters behind him can be said to be the highest masterpieces of the famous Hanaryusai. There are very few people who can recognize them as automata from the "Setsugetsu Flower" series and know that they were made by Hanaryuzhai.
After all, Hanaryusai Glass's "Setsugekka" is famous only in its own country. Yeye, Iruri and Komura rarely make public appearances. Who can be sure that they are the automatons of the "Setsugekka" series?
The dean of the college could recognize it at a glance and said it directly, saying that no one would believe it without some investigation.
But, that’s what I said.
"After all, I am also the dean of this academy. I have seen a lot of automatons. I have also seen the works of Master Hualiuzhai. Everything is extremely lifelike. And you are from the same country as Hualiuzhai. , and carrying such high-performance and highly bionic automatons, no more, no less, exactly three. In addition, almost all of Master Hanyuzai's recent masterpieces are girl-shaped, and I seem to be very fond of beautiful girls. , so we can guess it.”
The dean's smile did not diminish, but his gaze on Luo Zhen became somewhat meaningful.
"It would be great if such an excellent automaton could attend the night party, but Lord Agnie must remember to register them to avoid unnecessary trouble."
The meaning in this sentence is simply terrifying to think about.
Anyway, regardless of Ye Ye, both Yi Luli and Xiao Zi tightened their pretty faces and looked a little stiff.
"So... "
At this time, the dean suddenly entered the topic.
"I came to you this time because I actually want to discuss the recent situation with you."
What's going on
"Starting from the 70th place until now, all contestants who will attend the night party have voluntarily abstained. You should all know this, right?"
The dean actually mentioned this matter.
"Actually, the night party execution department has been receiving applications from contestants to abstain from participating. So far, the 55th place has surrendered their gloves."
It is already the 60th player's turn in the current night club, and the opponent has also abstained.
The 55th place will not appear for another five nights, but it has already abstained in advance. Just like what Xia Lu said, the number of abstentions is increasing all the time.
but...
"You all think they gave up because they felt they couldn't beat the many contestants who showed up, including Zhenjun Anie?"
The headmaster glanced at Luo Zhen and Magnus and said this.
"Actually, the real reason why they abstained was that something was wrong with the automaton."
When these words came from the mouth of the dean, Luo Zhen's eyes flashed, regardless of Magnus.
Something happened to the automaton
"Could it be...!"
The three sisters standing behind Luo Zhen exclaimed one after another.
The dean ignored this and spoke slowly.
"The academy believes that someone is secretly using unknown magic to steal the automata."
"All the automatons of the contestants disappeared."
"That's why they abstained."
