Alien landlady

Chapter 29
Bai Tongtong was not in a hurry to go back to school. The last time she went to the city alone was to buy a wedding gift for Seiya, and she couldn't go anywhere with her children.

Jumping into the rental carriage and asking the driver to take her to the largest bookstore in the city, Bai Tongtong took out the book shopping list written by herself, and bought a bunch of books about geology, geography, minerals, animals and plants under the beautiful misunderstanding of the clerk thinking that she was running errands for others. Books, stacked together, can't be carried by one person. Fortunately, her ring and space bag still have enough space to fit them.

After leaving the bookstore, I even had a local-style lunch in a small restaurant on the street before returning to school in a carriage in a comfortable manner.

Only after I got back to the dormitory did I find out that during this morning, Ai Ni had already been approached by the school to have a conversation. The white magician who only took senior students gave her a physical examination to check the drug residues in her body to investigate What happened to her accident last night?

Affected by the circle of life and the environment, noble children have some strange hobbies. The school has a strict bottom line in this regard, especially for magicians, it is absolutely forbidden to take drugs that will damage the body or mind. If it is found that there is long-term medication, there is nothing wrong with direct expulsion.

Bai Tongtong didn't worry about who reported the matter to the school, she only knew that the whole school must have known about it, and she was a little relieved that Ai Ni's classmates were all on her side, insisting that she was murdered.Ai Ni worked hard to build a good relationship with her classmates, and the good karma she formed helped a lot at this moment.

Bai Tongtong went upstairs to check on Ani's situation. Hill said that she had been staying in the bedroom since the conversation came back, and she didn't come down when Carjado and Ted came to see her, and they would come back later.

Aini was listlessly sitting at the desk under the window. The window was open, and the cold wind poured in. The heat from the fireplace flame was suppressed to death. Bai Tongtong called her, but she didn't respond.

Bai Tongtong sighed, closed the door, walked over to lean against the edge of the table, and raised his hand to caress the top of Aini's head.

"Be strong, it's okay."

At this moment, Ai Ni looked like she had just woken up from a dream. She shrank her shoulders, realized that there was someone beside her, and raised her head. The youthful girl who was still in high spirits yesterday was now haggard and pale.

"Tongtong..." Aini pursed her mouth, she felt wronged and wanted to cry, but bit her lip hard to restrain herself.

"I have looked for the restaurant, and it has been confirmed that Chuancai Sheng took the benefits. When serving tea, he poured medicine into a teacup, and when serving the waiter, make sure that cup of tea is in your cup. In front of them. At this time, it is estimated that their boss has received the news and started to deal with the aftermath."

"Who's trying to kill me? Could it be a prank?"

"Whether you were harmed in the name of a prank, the investigation is not yet over, so I don't know for the time being, but the investigation results announced to the public are most likely to quell all rumors and disturbances in the name of pranks among students."

"The restaurant has to protect itself, right? The owner of such a good restaurant knows many capable nobles. If he admits that his waiters did it secretly, the restaurant will close down."

"Yes, the owner of the restaurant is just an ordinary person in business. He can't afford to offend so many noble students. It's an excuse to end the matter in the name of prank."

"What about me?!" Ani had tears in her eyes and turned up the volume.

"Calm down, I have already found the middleman who was paid for the work. He said some things, but there are no details. Now he is hired by me to find out the person who connected with him at that time." Bai Tongtong lowered his voice, calm and soft Soothe Ai Ni's excited emotions.

"Is he reliable?"

"Money is reliable."

"Does such a person have a tight mouth? I'm more worried about this. Since he can tell you so much."

"I warned you about this. If he dares to leak the news or play tricks on me, I guarantee that he will disappear from this world and no one will find him." Bai Tongtong grinned, showing his beautiful white teeth.

Looking at Bai Tongtong who was smiling dangerously, Ai Ni suddenly shivered, and the teardrops that could not be shed just now disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Bai Tongtong pursed her lips and gave a comforting smile, turned around and closed the window, then added a few pieces of firewood to the fireplace, and the room temperature finally rose after a few minutes.

"Tongtong, after I wake up, I feel like the sky is going to fall. I don't know who hates me so much. Among the people you served before, how many people suffered inexplicably like this?" Aini lay on the back of the chair, looking Watching Bai Tongtong walk up and down the room.

"Want to know who is more miserable than you?" Bai Tongtong put down the tongs, clapped her hands and stood up from the fireplace, "Think about old Mrs. Hope, she was plotted by her own son to assassinate her, isn't the sky falling? And my friend Seiya, you were betrayed by your maid before the wedding and almost got annulled. Your little grievance is not worth a few copper coins compared to those."

Bai Tongtong gritted her back molars, restrained herself from contributing herself, one second she was still on the earth, and the next second she opened her eyes to this unnamed planet, she is living well now.The universe has not collapsed, let alone the sky. After accepting this reality, she also has a calm mind to calmly face all pressures in the future. No catastrophic event can compare to the stimulation of her traveling through the universe.

"It's true. When this matter is over, and then think about it, it may not be worth mentioning."

"That's right, when you are immersed in the academic pressure of dropping out of school without upgrading, your grievances today are nothing."

Aini was amused, there was a smile on her face, and the vitality was returning to her body.

Bai Tongtong breathed a sigh of relief, she stretched out her hand to Aini, "I bought some new cakes from the best cake shop in the city, do you want to try it?"

Aini smiled and nodded and stood up, holding Bai Tongtong's hand, and the two went downstairs to the restaurant together.

The cake is filled with non-local fresh fruit, which is sweet and sour. When buying the cake, the clerk said that he bought it from a southern city without winter, so the price is reasonable.

The cake is still served with multi-flavored tea and dried fruit drink, and it is also the original tea brick bought by Bai Tongtong from a boutique tea shop in the city. This is to ensure that there are no strange things added in it. After adding milk and honey, it is fragrant and delicious. It is suitable for sitting in the cold winter Drinks by the fireplace.

The delicious snacks made Annie's mood better faster, Hill went to the front door, and then Caljado and Ted walked through the narrow corridor, as if they were at home, they pulled out the chair and sat down .

Hill quickly brought them cakes and tea.

The two of them came here before, but they didn't see Ai Ni. They came here again to tell her that they were also called to talk. The whole school knew that the three of them were a small gang. The principal wanted to know about Ai Ni's daily life. Habit.

Although the two boys assured that they were telling the truth, Annie was so nervous that she put down the spoon again. The principal intervened in person, and any student would be sweating.

"When we left, it seemed that Master Bai's inspection results were about to come out. After a while, someone would come and tell you to go to the principal's office, and Tongtong would go too." Kalyado buried his face in the plate, with his left hand on top of his head Pointing up and down.

"Do you want Hill to go?" Ani didn't notice anything unusual, she just thought the cake was delicious.

"Hill won't go, as long as Tongtong, she is in charge of the diet." Carjado still didn't look up, as if the cake was something delicious.

Bai Tongtong gently put down the cake spoon, picked up the teacup, raised her eyebrows and glanced at Carjado and Ted, who had been silent all this time, "What did you two say about me in front of the principal?"

The two boys sat up straight together as if choking at the same time, trying their best to hide the embarrassment on their faces, "We just talked a little about your cooking skills."

"That's not right. Cooking skills are public news. Everyone knows that I can cook. You told the principal something that outsiders don't know." Bai Tongtong didn't bother to talk to these two boys who couldn't make up nonsense.

"I didn't really say anything, but when we were talking to the principal, other teachers came to complain to the principal about the test scores of the students. Few people got perfect marks for the questions that had to be calculated. I just said casually, you are very good at this things." Ted bit the spoon and admitted that he was talkative.

"Well, we'll find out when we meet the principal." Bai Tongtong took two sips of the hot drink, picked up a spoon and swept the rest of the cake into his stomach.

After the afternoon tea, someone came to inform Ai Ni that the principal wanted to see the four of them.

Concentric Lake is the dividing line between Magic Academy and Military Academy, and the administrative office building that manages the entire school is just behind Concentric Lake, separated by a sparse grove. The center of the lake is the central axis, and it is firmly established there. There are a small number of supporting small buildings and some green landscapes around it. If you look carefully, you can easily see that it is a symmetrical structure centered on the lake as a whole, just because it is hidden in the forest. In this big background, it is not very noticeable.

The last time Bai Tongtong sparred with Ted's brothers in front of the lake, and practiced magic in hiding, right under the nose of the principal, Bai Tongtong had no doubt that the row of windows on the third floor of the administrative building could It is easy to see the scene around the lakeshore.

Ai Ni and the three of them have been here once, and Bai Tongtong followed behind them without being led the way, listening to them talk about the layout of the principal's office.

The principal's office is in a large room in the middle of the third floor, and the windows face the lake, while the vice-principal's office of the same size is on the opposite side of the corridor, and the windows naturally face the green sea-like forest.

Aini knocked on the door, and the silver-haired headmaster wearing a khaki robe with six stone patterns embroidered on the chest and the white mage wearing a white robe with five small flowers on the chest were waiting for their arrival.

The table is placed obliquely in front of the window to maximize the use of natural light for reading and writing without the trouble of backlight. Above the window hangs a row of evergreen ornamental plants with branches hanging upside down, like natural curtains, blocking the harsh sunlight.The walls on both sides were replaced by a whole row of towering bookshelves. There were chairs for simple conversations in front of the desks, and a set of long tables and armchairs in the most spacious place in the middle of the room, suitable for small meetings. There is a huge fireplace on the wall, and the flame is burning fiercely, and there are two famous paintings on the wall.

As soon as Bai Tongtong stepped into the office, she felt something was wrong. Apart from the huge magical aura coming towards her, she also felt that the magic elements of the earth system gathered automatically without being mobilized, which was a bit dangerous. The principal is an earth mage.

The principal was sitting behind his desk, and Master Bai was sitting in front of the desk. Both of them were facing the students. On the empty desk of the principal, there was a single piece of paper with something written on it.

Knowing that she is innocent, but this situation still makes Ai Ni's hands and feet sweat, so she bites the bullet and goes forward to say hello to the principal and teachers, and introduce Bai Tongtong to them.

Bai Tongtong saluted the two archmages with standard etiquette, then stepped back slightly behind Aini, waiting for questions, while trying her best to restrain the increasingly turbulent fluctuations of magic elements.

Earth mages have always given people the impression of being simple and honest, which is also the characteristic of the earth. They are silent and unpretentious. Standing with other mages is inconspicuous, but it is the most important thing.Bai Tongtong felt that an earth-type mage should be given another label, a strong sense of security, and at this stop, there was an urge to confide in secrets, because the silent land is best for keeping secrets, and never betrays secrets.

Bai Tongtong gritted her teeth to suppress the eager excitement in her heart.

The principal picked up the paper on the table and shook it, "Draig, the inspection results came out, and there were no signs of drug abuse before you were found."

Aini screamed excitedly, and couldn't stop crying on the spot. Bai Tongtong stuffed her clean handkerchief to her, patted her on the shoulder, and asked her to calm down and listen to the principal.

"Also, we sent someone to the Eros restaurant to ask, and your guard lady walked in front of us. The restaurant owner decided to distance himself in the name of student pranks. The employee who drugged him has been fired. They hope Don't report them, for this reason they are willing to receive you for free for an unlimited period of time next year, which means that you are willing to eat three meals a day at their place for free."

Aini held her handkerchief and turned around to look at Bai Tongtong in surprise, "You are so right, you said it must be in the name of a prank."

Bai Tongtong gave her a look, telling her to listen to the principal, now is not the time to be distracted.

Aini realized that she had made a mistake again, and quickly stood up again.

The principal and Master Bai smiled kindly. They didn't mind this cute little behavior. They knew how difficult Aini's day was, and it was necessary to relax at the right time.

Except for one of them, she was too tense, obviously because she had never faced a high-level mage before.

The principal's meaningful eyes slipped across Bai Tongtong's face lightly, and he exchanged a tacit look with Master Bai.

I found the treasure.
