Alien landlady

Chapter 30
"By the way, Miss Bai is ahead of our investigation. The latest news is that the middleman has disappeared. We only know that there is a female mercenary who is suspected to be dressed as Miss Bai. The principal signaled Aini to stand aside. , Now is the real important business, some of the students can get banned drugs, this is a serious matter.

"Yes, Red Rat has accepted my mission to find the person who ordered him. He can remember too few details. He only knows that she is a very new girl in an ordinary skirt. She doesn't have the temperament of a noble servant, but on the contrary she is a bit of a warrior. She is wearing a cloak and has freckles on her face, but she forgot where the freckles are." Bai Tongtong stood at Aini's previous position and spoke the clues she knew in a low tone as if she was making a report at a meeting.

"How do you ask him to find it?" the principal continued to ask.

"It is common knowledge among the locals that the aristocratic salons of the two houses of the school hold banquets, and Red Rat knows it too. He said he knows the restaurants that host banquets, and he will pay attention to them. That woman must be serving a powerful employer, and It was also specified to ensure that the drugged tea was given to Miss Dreger, which shows that there was a bad friendship. Looking at the School of Magic, the only one who can more or less say that the friendship is not very good is Miss Noral , her maid Mary and I have fought directly, other than that, the one who gets the most beatings is the one next door."

Everyone laughed softly, and the principal was so happy that the wrinkles on his face stretched out.

"Mary is also an excellent graduate next door, but she made you lie on the bed for a few days." Master Bai smiled softly.

"At least she knows that it was me who hurt her, but I still don't know who hurt me with magic." Bai Tongtong couldn't help remembering the burning sensation of the wound at that time, and raised his hand to touch his back shoulder.

"It's like Miss Noral's fireplace chimney being blocked for no reason. It's an unsolved case." The principal can be sure that this female mercenary didn't do it, and she doesn't have the ability to control it precisely.

"Oh, by the way, Miss Noral and Miss Barbara are a pair of cousins. Miss Noral suffered a great loss, and it is reasonable for her cousin to avenge her."

"But there is no evidence. A commoner accuses a nobleman, and he needs physical evidence that will not be overthrown. The strength of the witness testimony is almost weak." The headmaster put his hands and fingers crossed in front of his chin, his eyes full of smiles.

"Indeed, there is no evidence. Everything is just my wild guess. I have to wait for Red Rat to find him. But in terms of standing to accuse, Ms. Drago is the plaintiff."

"If a punk acts as a witness, the credibility of the testimony will be doubted."

"Oh, it depends on the results of the three winter vacation exams. If the results are good, it will be easier to do later." Bai Tongtong pointed to the three people behind him with his thumb.

"Huh?!" The three of Aini on the background board looked puzzled.

The principal and Master Bai both had expressions of listening attentively.

"I think the source of all the messy things is related to the re-ranking of the House of Elders next year. The Marquis of Aronson, the Grand Duke of Kallja, Nolar is from a magical family, the Duke of Barbara, plus other big nobles. Each party represents a power. I’ll just talk about it casually, and everyone can listen to it. As the child of a viscount who is insignificant in national politics, she plays with the children of two big nobles. It’s normal for people to dislike her. of."

"So?" The principal's smile remained unchanged, encouraging Bai Tongtong to continue talking.

"So, if you want to get rid of the position of being hated by others, the only thing you can do is to talk about your grades." Bai Tongtong suddenly turned and pointed at Ai Ni, "Your grades are outstanding, so you won't be regarded as a lowly person, but you will be flattered." The object of pursuit, Viscount Drago's status in front of the city lord will rise, he has the ability to influence the decision-making of the city lord, and win a better place in the political circle, and this can stabilize your position in the school. Do not want to be Bullying, relying on anyone is better than relying on yourself."

Ai Ni was said to be stupid, until she was pushed by Ted, she woke up and nodded desperately, "Well, I know, I will study hard."

"Okay, I will look forward to your test results." The headmaster seemed to be waiting for this sentence, and the timing was right.

The three children quickly assured the principal that they would prepare for the exam seriously and would not discredit their family background.

In the face of the academy's elimination system, even the king's children have to prove their abilities with their academic performance, which is fair.

"Okay, this matter is over like this. The school will continue to investigate the messenger behind it. There must be an explanation for the drug ban. Regardless of whether the original intention is a prank or not, the school has a bottom line." The principal said with a serious face. Summarize.

The dark clouds in Aini's heart finally dissipated, and her heart was filled with sunshine again.

"Children, you go back first, I will leave Miss Bai to talk about something." The principal's interest in Bai Tongtong was clearly shown on his face.

Bai Tongtong narrowed his eyes slightly, knowing that the principal had spotted him.

"Huh?!" Anyone with a discerning eye can see that what is going to be discussed next is the interesting thing, and none of Aini and the others left.

Master Bai stood up at this time and called the children to stand by the window with him.

After Ai Ni and the others changed positions, the principal suddenly made an attack. A series of magic spells flew out of his mouth. The invisible earth elements in the air were like well-trained soldiers. The stone thorn flew towards Bai Tongtong with a whistling sound piercing the air.

Bai Tongtong dodges left and right in the huge office, but under the control of the principal, the stone thorn sometimes sprints collectively, and sometimes spreads out to outflank it from several directions. No matter how Bai Tongtong runs, he is within the attack range of the stone thorn, and the principal is also cunning He sealed off the position of the door, preventing Bai Tongtong from running outside.

Ai Ni was so nervous that she was half dead, but Carjado and Ted saw a trick. Bai Tongtong seemed to be able to dodge every time when she seemed to be in danger. Even if she got under the table, she could escape a wave of attacks , it seems to be able to know the flight direction of the stone spur in advance.

At this tense moment, Master Bai and the principal could still make eye contact with each other with a smile on their face, and after seeing that Bai Tongtong's evasion speed showed signs of slowing down, they added more stone thorns, as if they would not let her get hurt.

Bai Tongtong had already jumped onto the conference table, it was too dangerous to stand on the ground, as long as it was a land creature, the trajectory of its activities could not be hidden in front of the earth mage.

There was another wave of fluctuations in the air, and a large wave of stone thorns appeared again, surrounding Bai Tongtong on the conference table. Switching to a secret room, this is the proper rhythm to be crushed into meatloaf.

Bai Tongtong took a few breaths to let herself have the ability to fight back, and then chanted the birthing magic loudly.

A few seconds later, all the stone thorns that were an arm's length away from Bai Tongtong disappeared collectively, turned into elements and returned to the air, while the five people under the window, including the principal, were wrapped in the head and grew wildly. among the branches of green plants.

After the room was silent for a while, Bai Tongtong let out a burst of laughter, then couldn't stop, and simply lay on his side on the conference table, patting the table and laughing until his stomach ached.

The second one who laughed was the headmaster. He had to leave his desk and looked at the branches hanging down to the ground, laughing as if he had picked up some treasure.

Master Bai was the third to get rid of the situation, and patted the small leaves on his body, and one leaf was still stuck to his lips.

The three of Aini were in a daze for a little longer, and when they got out of the branches in a hurry, the first thing they did was to point at Bai Tongtong across the room and yell.

"Tongtong, you actually know magic!!!"

Bai Tongtong sat cross-legged on the table, spreading her hands innocently.

"This is too much!!" Feeling deceived, the young masters and ladies almost jumped.

Bai Tongtong rested her chin on her hands and made a lovely smile.

"If the three of you still want to hire her as a guard and cook next semester, the price will increase." The principal suddenly winked at the side.

"Is it really possible to hire next semester?" Carjado was the first to react, jumping in front of the principal impatiently.

"Of course, she has to work with you to solidify the basic subjects next semester." The headmaster nodded with a smile, which is the highest guarantee.

Now they can no longer take care of Bai Tongtong's concealment of magical ability, Ai Ni and the others ran to Bai Tongtong, insisting that she promise to stay with the three of them in the next semester, and they will double her reward.

"Hey, don't make up for my client, okay?" Bai Tongtong pursed her mouth, deliberately poking it up.

"I will spend the two months of winter vacation with my old friends in the capital, doing some research work, and I need an assistant to help me with errands and chores. Miss Bai, you know that magicians are always well paid. "

Bai Tongtong quickly jumped down from the table at the fastest speed in his life, rushed to the headmaster, put his hands in prayer gestures on his chest, and bared his white teeth, "Your Excellency, you can just call me Tongtong." !"

The three people standing behind the conference table in a daze, all gritted their teeth and cursed secretly, "It's too shameless."

The headmaster patted Bai Tongtong on the shoulder with the attitude of an elder, took a pen and paper from the table, and wrote an address to her, "I will return to the capital on the morning of January [-], and you will come to my house to find me that morning."

"Okay." Bai Tongtong glanced at the note, recorded the address in his mind, then folded it up carefully, and put it into the money bag in the ring.

"Principal, you want to see Tongtong mainly because of this?" Carjado's resentful voice came from behind Bai Tongtong.

"Oh, how could it be? It was decided on a temporary basis. I just wanted to call for a question, but the middleman disappeared. Only Tongtong has the clues. As the principal, of course I want to know what happened in the middle." The attitude is very serious.

"But you threw magic at Tongtong. If you don't know that she has magical abilities, throwing magic at ordinary people for no reason is against the morality of magicians." Carljado said sternly, vowing not to give up until he got an answer , Annie and Ted stood behind him, nodding in support of the friend.

"Well, let me say, a few days ago, after you guys had a fight with the three students next door in front of the Tongxin Lake, I felt the strong fluctuations of the earth magic element here, but it was terribly jerky. At that time, I I searched around, and you are the only ones practicing magic nearby."

"That's not right, principal, if it's a strong fluctuation, we should be able to detect it."

The principal and Mage Bai looked at their lovely students with pleasant expressions, "In front of senior mages, we can tell whether this person has a magical potential worth cultivating through slight fluctuations that you can't detect."

The children were dumbfounded again, "It means that Tongtong has magical potential..., but her age...!"

"This is indeed miraculous. Generally speaking, at her age, even if she has talent, she has long since disappeared, but Tongtong still maintains a considerable level. Look at the birthing technique she just performed, Aaronson, yours Can birth magic reach this level?"

Looking at the green waterfall in front of the window, Ted shook his head in frustration, "I can't at all, I can't even grow a grass."

"Tongtong's talent is stronger than ours?!" Aini finally grasped the point.

"Although it's jerky, it's turbulent. I really don't know why you haven't been discovered before?" Mage Bai looked at those flower pots, thinking of Bai Tongtong in his heart.

"How many high-level magicians can be mixed in the mercenary team?" Bai Tongtong muttered.

"That's true." The two archmages agreed with Bai Tongtong's statement.

After Bai Tongtong demonstrated all the basic magic, Aaronson's frustration could not be increased. The principal and Master Bai laughed from ear to ear because they discovered the talents who slipped through the net.

After that, the group of people left the administrative building together and went back to their respective places.

Today was originally a rest day, but it was because of Ai Ni's incident that the principal and the white magician were alarmed to give up the rest and come back to deal with it. Now that everything on the surface is settled, of course we can continue to enjoy the rest of the vacation time.

Walking out of the building, the young man walked fast and was about to part with the principal and teachers. He took a step first when a meow suddenly came in.

The principal and the teacher were still a little curious, but Bai Tongtong and the others were very surprised. Ah Huang walked out from behind a big tree with light catwalks, walked slowly towards Bai Tongtong, and finally sat down in front of her lap. , raised his face, raised his tail, and swung the tip of his tail lightly from side to side.

"NYA~"

"Huh? Ah Huang, why did you come here?" No one knows where Ah Huang has been after leaving the dormitory every day because of the cat's virtue. It was a bit of a surprise to see it suddenly.

While speaking, Bai Tongtong bent down and stretched out his arms. Ah Huang followed suit, nestled comfortably in Bai Tongtong's arms, rubbed his head against her face, and glanced at the principal and teacher behind him .

"You still have a small pet in your dormitory?" The principal also seemed very interested in Ah Huang.

"No, I ran here by myself. I'm looking for a warm place in winter. Maybe I'll go back to the forest next spring." Bai Tongtong touched Ah Huang's nose, it was cold, and he didn't know how long he had been outside.

"Hehe, there are many wild animals in the school, you have to be careful, don't be scratched by them." The white magic teacher warned.

"We don't touch it. Only Tongtong can touch it and hold it. When others get close to it, they will show their paws. I have ruined several skirts by it." Ai Ni complained, pursing her lips.

Ah Huang seemed to understand, rolled his eyes lazily, then stuck out his tongue to lick Bai Tongtong's face, making Bai Tongtong scratch his chin.

The principal showed an expression of surprise and amused at the same time, holding back a smile and urging them to go back to the dormitory quickly and not to blow the cold wind outside.

Seeing the backs of Bai Tongtong and the four of them walking away, with no one around, the principal and Master Bai finally showed a surprised expression on their faces that truly expressed their feelings.

"It's actually a shadowless cat!?" Master Bai was stunned, feeling that today was not in vain, "A high-level earth-type monster actually appeared in our campus, and it was still by the side of humans? How did it get here through the restricted area? here?"

"Aha, the mystery of the blocked chimney in Noral's dormitory has been solved. Shadowless cats are famous for their vengeance and cleverness. If they are provoked, they will definitely retaliate. Before Noral's chimney was blocked, Drey Ge’s chimney must have been blocked once before, but it was resolved by this cat.” The principal drew a picture of the process before and after the chimney incident in his mind.

"Looking at how close it is to Tongtong, could it be that it wants to recognize the master?"

"It's hard to say. The character of cats has always been difficult to understand. Maybe it just wants to find a servant to serve it through the winter." Having said that, the principal was still a little unbelievable. High-level monsters appeared on the campus on their own initiative. I haven't seen it a few times for many years, which shows that there are loopholes in the defense line of the restricted area, and we must hurry up and check it out.

"Well, then let's forget about this, and don't let people know that we have a shadowless cat."

"That's right, don't let anyone know."

"Come on, go to my house for dinner. I just got a bottle of good wine a few days ago. In the morning, I specially asked someone to buy prawns and make fried prawns in the evening."

"Oh? Then you have to have a good taste."

The two old people gossiped about their daily life, chatted while walking, and soon left the campus.
