MTL - Survivor 01 [Unlimited]-Chapter 102 Yuna - [19]
It seemed that it was going to rain, the night outside the window was gloomy, and there was faint thunder rolling from a distance.
Yuna sat in front of the vanity mirror, she raised her hand and rubbed the red on her lips with her fingertips, a little lost in thought.
After a while, someone knocked on the door outside the house, Yuna came back to her senses, raised her chin slightly:
"Enter."
The doorknob was pushed, the door opened inward, and the butler walked in.
He prepared supper and red wine for Yuna, and put the glass and plate by Yuna's hand:
"Miss Yuna."
"Hmm." Yuna replied casually.
she asked:
"How's the situation today?"
The butler nodded:
"It's not bad. The supernatural rebels expressed their sincerity for friendly cooperation to us. The high-level officials of country K also gave us a good name and high enough authority for the Peace Guild according to our requirements. Previously, because The city that was turned into ruins due to the war is also being rebuilt in an orderly manner, and the card that Miss Yuna gave last time, I have anonymously donated it to the war victims and their families according to your instructions, I hope it will help them."
After finishing speaking, the housekeeper paused, and said:
"The world seems to be really moving in a good direction, Miss Yuna, you did it."
Yuna talks about wanting peace, and at first, no one thinks she can make it.
Yuna had had a fight with Lin Huai before, probably because Lin Huai felt that Yuna should not intervene in the war, nor did she think that what she said could become a reality.
And just as Lin Huai expected, when Yuna started playing the name of the Peace Guild, few people took her seriously, and they only regarded it as a joke. Later, in the name of the Peace Guild, Yuna helped the K country's armed forces solve several vicious incidents caused by the supernatural rebels, and helped them get rid of several rebel strongholds by the way.
K country's high-level officials were very moved, and felt that Yuna was a conscientious and good supernatural being, but they still didn't take her peace guild seriously.
They even wanted to recruit Yuna and her supernatural friends into the armed forces at first, but Yuna ruthlessly rejected them later. The high-level executives of country K who were rejected became furious and sent three warning letters to Yuna, but Yuna ignored them at all. She singled out the entire armed forces of country K and drew up an agreement to hand over to them The general idea is that she can help them check and balance the supernatural rebels, but the premise is that they need to live in peace with the supernatural beings, and promise to never initiate wars.
As for the supernatural rebels, it's easier to deal with. They have been upset with Yuna for a long time. Once they found a lot of people to kill Yuna directly, but in the end they didn't even touch Yuna's clothes. He was followed back to the headquarters by Yuna, and when he found the leader of the rebel army, he pulled him out and beat him up.
Yuna also signed an agreement with them. At that time, the supernatural rebel army had already occupied a city in the south, and Yuna asked them not to harm ordinary humans. In exchange, she would go to the high-level K country to discuss the ownership of the city.
At first, both sides thought she was joking, but unexpectedly, the supernatural rebel army was defeated by Yuna, and the ownership of the southern city was also negotiated by her. Everything was developing in a good direction. Fang forces can even attend the ball together in her Rose Manor.
Things are indeed developing in a good direction, and the era of peace that Yuna was looking forward to seems to have indeed come, but just recently, she discovered a not-so-pleasant thing.
"Lin Huai is still in contact with that person?"
Yuna asked while sitting in front of the vanity mirror, combing her long hair.
"For now, yes."
The butler nodded.
Yuna and Lin Huai had known each other not long ago. Back then, the guy said he was a homeless man and came to her Rose Manor to find a job. At that time, Yuna thought this person was very interesting, so she kept him.
Lin Huai is very smart and capable. Yuna and him have similar interests, and they can chat together, so they have a good relationship. Later, Yuna founded the Peace Guild, and Lin Huai became the vice president, becoming Yuna's veritable right-hand man.
But just a few days ago, Yuna discovered that Lin Huai seemed to have been in contact with a certain high-level figure in K country.
Yuna didn't really want to know whether Lin Huai got in touch with that person later, or whether he was his person from the beginning to the end.
She just felt that fate was really a wonderful thing.
"Should I get him out of here?"
The butler asked tentatively.
"No."
Yuna chuckled lightly, saying something that the housekeeper couldn't understand, as if pointing something:
"Those who should come will always come, those who cannot escape, drive away one, and there will be more later. I just want to see what he can do."
…
The memories this time were very short, and Ye Fei didn't get much information.
Lin Huai? "That one"? Based on the information Ren Huayan gave before, "that person" should be the man she saw at the Rose Manor dinner party with Lin Huai, but who that person is is still a question mark.
What is "What should come will always come"?
What the **** does Yuna know? What did you meet?
Ye Fei felt inexplicably uneasy.
After the memory was over, he took a deep breath, tried his best to stabilize his uncontrollably trembling hands, and pressed those messy thoughts back to his heart.
What matters now is the present.
Thinking of this, Ye Fei reached out to move Yuna's torso out of the closet.
But just as he was about to touch her, a cloud of black smoke suddenly rose from the darkness behind her.
This time, when the black smoke appeared, it was no longer a fleeting moment, it hovered inside the cabinet, trying to swallow Ye Fei whole by the evil ghost who was just waiting for an opportunity.
Ye Fei was all too familiar with this feeling.
It reminded him of someone.
Ye Fei suddenly felt a strong panic, and he withdrew his hand like lightning, but the black smoke lingered on him relentlessly.
"Little snake!"
Ye Fei turned pale with shock.
It seems that he has developed a good habit of calling Jian Lingxi's name first when danger comes:
"Little snake! Little snake! Little snake, little snake!!"
Jian Lingxi is always on call.
The glass door of the floor-to-ceiling window was suddenly pushed open, and Jian Lingxi held a blood moon scythe, and stepped forward to block Ye Fei in a few steps.
The black smoke hit the blade of the Blood Moon Scythe and scattered in all directions. It didn't move forward, but huddled in front of Jian Lingxi, and looked at him briefly for a moment.
Jian Lingxi narrowed her eyes slightly, as if she was also looking at the black mist without a human figure in front of her, her golden pupils were full of coldness.
He turned his face slightly, and said to Ye Fei behind him:
"Ms. Ye took Yuna's torso to the auditorium, leave it to me here. I will go to you after I finish this matter."
Ye Fei froze for a moment.
He seems to want to say something:
"you…"
But before he finished speaking, he stopped.
And Jian Lingxi seemed to understand what he meant, so he took it naturally.
He said:
"Don't worry, I can find you."
…
split world 2
Ren Huayan, Bubu and Esther were sitting in Yuna's room in a row, while Yuna was rummaging through the room with her skirt in her hand.
Esther looked at her, feeling strange, and wanted to ask something, but remembered what Ren Huayan told him to "be polite", so she finally asked awkwardly:
"Miss Yuna, didn't you say that tonight's dance is very important?"
"Hmm, it's really important."
Yuna nodded.
"Then why are you still here?"
"Because it's important, but boring."
Yuna dragged her voice slightly:
"Anyway, I used to say some polite words in the past. Why don't you go later, someone is in charge of that, and I hate dealing with people."
Saying that, Yuna found something from the cabinet next to the bed, she shook her long hair, and the earrings on her ears made a series of crisp sounds following his movements:
"Oh, I found it, I found it."
When Ren Huayan heard his words, she glanced subconsciously, only to see that Yuna found a chess set out of nowhere:
"My Rose Manor usually doesn't come to children, and no one can play with me. Would you like to play with me for a while?"
Yuna's tone was brisk, inexplicably cute, not at all full of aura as Ren Huayan had seen in Xiaoting's memories.
It turns out that the powerful sister in the legend also has her own little temper. She thinks the prom is boring and hides herself to be lazy, and she will happily play chess with the children.
Yuna put the chessboard on the ground, and knelt on the carpet with her skirt:
"Let's see, I can only play one game, so let's hurry up... Wait, can any of you play chess?"
The point of playing chess matches the side mission they received on the first night. At that time, the chess was played step by step. Now she silently raises her hand and sits opposite Yuna.
Yuna helped her set up the chess pieces, and when she was about to take the first step, she suddenly said:
"Wait, it's not interesting to just play. It's rare to meet someone who can play chess. So, do you have any wishes? If you win this game, I can help you realize it."
Ren Huayan didn't expect Yuna to say that.
She looked at Bubu, then at Esther, and said:
"We don't have any wishes. If possible, can Miss Yuna take us to the ball tonight? Will it cause you trouble?"
She still hasn't forgotten that the task given to them by the system is to "attend the dance at the Rose Manor".
Hearing this request, Yuna froze for a moment.
Then, she curled her lips:
"sure."
The big and small chess game officially started, and she still maintained her brainless violent play every step of the way. Every move was played very casually, as if randomly placed, but it did push Yuna to the defeat.
The whole game didn't take long, and Yuna lost badly, but she seemed very happy, with smiles on the corners of her eyes and brows.
"I lost, let's go and take you to the dance."
Yuna put away the chessboard on the ground, and laughed while talking to herself:
"Really, I lost to a little sister."
"You play well too." Bubu nodded politely at her.
"Really?" Yuna chuckled lightly:
"An old friend taught it. If he knew that I lost to a child, he would laugh at me to death."
Hearing this, Ren Huayan's heart moved.
She felt that she could guess who Yuna was talking about.
she asked:
"Is Miss Yuna's good friend?"
"Well, a good friend, a fool."
Yuna thought of that guy and shook her head.
Ren Huayan also bent her lips:
"Miss Yuna's friend, he must be a very good person."
Yuna chuckled, as if recalling some pleasant memories:
"Yeah, he is a very gentle guy, nagging and annoying, but when he beats me, he is quick and sharp, not gentle at all."
After putting away the chessboard, Yuna took the three children to the dance party on the second floor as promised.
On the road, with Yuna around, no one dared to stop them, but many people cast curious eyes on them, as if they didn't understand why these three disgraced children followed Yuna, and why they appeared it's here.
Ren Huayan and the others followed Yuna into the ballroom.
The area of the ballroom was larger than the hall on the first floor, and it was very lively inside, with ladies and gentlemen in formal dresses gathering in it. And when Yuna appeared, everyone's eyes were on her.
Naturally, Yuna couldn't take them with her all the time. She took the children to a place where there were a little less people. Before leaving, Yuna whispered to them:
"Play whatever you want, be careful, don't be kidnapped by bad guys."
As she spoke, she raised her hands in black lace gloves, waved them lightly as farewell, and then walked towards the center of the crowd with her skirt in her hands.
People around kept saying hello to her, gathering around her and chatting with her, while Yuna walked among the crowd with a calm posture and a smile on her red lips.
She was still the same Yuna, but she hid her childishness, and without the sense of relaxation he felt when he knelt on the ground and played chess with them, she became the powerful Miss Yuna who maintained peace between the two parties by herself.
Ren Huayan looked at her from a distance, but for a moment, she somehow felt that Yuna's expression and smile were somewhat familiar, as if she had seen her somewhere.
Ren Huayan frowned slightly, a little lost in thought.
But she couldn't remember, and she didn't have time to think about it.
Because in the next second, she suddenly saw the man who had a private meeting with Lin Huai in the crowd.
The man was standing on the other side of the ballroom at this time, his cold eyes crossed the crowd and looked straight at Yuna on the other side.
Those eyes were probing, scrutinizing, and there was a mocking smile of a high-ranking person overlooking everything.
Ren Huayan's heart tightened for no reason. She had a premonition, she felt that the identity of this man must be very, very important, and this importance was not specific to this dungeon and mission, but to something far, far away. So she let Esther beside her take care of Bu Bu, walked through the crowd by herself, and walked towards the man quickly.
She hid at the dessert table closest to the man, distractedly paying attention to the situation there, and coincidentally, at that moment, someone happened to come up to say hello to the man.
The man smiled at the man, then greeted him, and called his name.
Hearing that name, Ren Huayan felt a chill in her heart.
Her eyes widened suddenly.
