Alien landlady

Chapter 66 Continue to set off
After resting for two days in Horsenge City, they also purchased some special products and souvenirs. Bai Tongtong and Ah Huang stepped into the Xinxin Forest, and the first stop was to visit Yeguogou, looking at the young plants on the branches. Guozi, the two of them withdrew temporarily to get down to business, and came back when it rained.

After staying in the dense forest for two or three days, the thunderstorm came as expected, and one person and one cat immediately rushed to Yeguogou. As soon as he came out, Ahuang used the ground auditory technique to scan it. There was no one inside or outside, and no mercenaries came in. Bai Tongtong They happily picked all kinds of fruits that entered the final ripening stage under the heavy rain.

In the days that followed, Bai Tongtong almost regarded Yeguogou as her own fruit basket. When she got hungry, she came to pick two fruits. After picking the early ripening ones, she had to wait for the late ripening ones. Anyway, Xinxin Forest was big enough, and she had to collect a lot of things to make up for it. It's a pity that I didn't enjoy it when I came for the first time.

The mercenaries who came in to pick fruit once a year found that this year's fruit production was very small, especially in the later period when more and more mercenary groups came in, and there were more and more conflicts. A little pink.

But at this time, Bai Tongtong had already returned home with a full load.

Still going back to Holsinger City first, asked the Wizards Guild to mail it to Principal Hart, Bai Tongtong rested in the city for a day, and spent another day walking around Steve, looking at Galty and *** The family territory of the two barons, after learning about the current living conditions of their two families from the farmers, went to Fort Chamington through the teleportation array on the third day, spent three or four days with the Seiya family happily, and told them the current situation of their hometown , gave them a basket of various fruits from Yeguogou, and Seiya was so shocked that he almost screamed.

After leaving Fort Chamington, Bai Tongtong went to Menice School of Magic and Martial Arts. The principal and Ai Ni also each had a basket of fruits that piled up like a mountain. The vice-principal is the same as the principal.

After the lively reminiscence during the day, Bai Tongtong went to the principal's home in Menise City at night. After dinner, Ah Huang acted cute in front of his wife, and Bai Tongtong talked with the principal in the study.

Of course, the main content of the talk was about her evaluation of the treasure hunting practice outside this time. Generally speaking, the headmaster is still very satisfied with the report card. The actual work was done by herself, but he had heard of her bravery when she carried an animal taller than her head into the city on the northern border.

Also, the valiant rescue at Cove City.

Seeing the principal mentioning this matter, Bai Tongtong simply told the story. She didn't know how the master reported it to the above, so she omitted a lot of details, such as the plot that made many people disappear. She didn't say a word. Talk about a rough, basically can understand what's going on.

Principal Hart raised his eyebrows as he watched Bai Tongtong say a few words, stop after a few words, and then pause again.

"Okay, okay, don't make up stories, I'm tired of watching, I've already read the report."

"You know everything and still ask..." Bai Tongtong muttered with puckered lips.

"On the report, there is only what happened to them. Your name does not appear. It is written in the text with the words 'Principal Hart's favorite student'. I just want to hear what role you played in it, and you even make up stories for me." .”

"Huh? So obscure?" Bai Tongtong rolled his eyes, "Is it not convenient for His Majesty to give me a reward?"

"What award? What important things have you done for His Majesty to award you?" Principal Hart raised his brow even higher.

"No, I didn't do anything, I just accidentally picked up a poor injured man and helped him reunite with his companions." Bai Tongtong scratched his ears, "But, I was almost assassinated in Ke's Cove, This can be detailed."

Principal Hart didn't expect the topic to jump so irregularly, he suddenly brought it up in a relaxed mood, and his heart skipped a beat, "Assassination?! When? How did it happen? Tell me!"

"On the day I came back from the forest, I was having dinner at the hotel, but when the food was served, I found something wrong. Those people followed me all the way to the park, and Ah Huang finally killed them."

"And then? Did you go back to sleep?"

Bai Tongtong touched his nose again, and added hesitantly, "Then I found Nuomani."

Headmaster Hart opened his mouth wide. Of course he heard about the incident in Cock's Cove.

"It turned out that he left the most important thing XZ in the hotel, but when I went back to the hotel with him, I found that his things were lost, and I frantically searched all over the room. Then I felt bored, so I went back to sleep."

"You really gave up on your own initiative?"

"Of course! Although he wants to kill me, but he is so miserable, I will leave him to those who need him more. My personal hatred is not worth mentioning."

"Why do I feel like something is wrong when I hear what you say?"

Bai Tongtong spread his hands, "Anyway, he's in prison now, and if I want to seek revenge on him, I have to break into the prison cell, so I won't do stupid things."

Principal Hart thought for a while, then stood up, "It's best if you understand, I don't need to say any more."

"Understood." Bai Tongtong stood up and made a silent gesture, "I didn't say anything when I left this room."

The headmaster laughed and said nothing, just opened the door of the study room, and the two went to the living room to drink tea, play a few rounds of cards with his wife and the housekeeper, and enjoy the leisure time in summer evenings.

This semester is coming to an end, and Principal Hart is more busy with administrative work. He only has a little time to guide Bai Tongtong at night, and he doesn't want her to waste his time during the day, so he entrusts her to other teachers of the soil department and asks her to follow the middle-grade students. Attending lectures, communicating with everyone and discussing more will also help her progress. The advantage of eating alone with the magician is that she has all the educational resources, but the disadvantages are also obvious.

Bai Tongtong asked the housekeeper to send the last basket of fruit to Master Jules, and she went out early and returned late with the principal every day.

Students starting from the fourth grade are already attending mixed classes. The juniors and seniors study under the same teacher as the seniors. Because the number of students is quite large, there are not many teachers in a magic department. In the last three years of senior grades, Basically, a teacher can take care of all his students. At that time, the remaining students were enough, but no one knew who among them could become an official magician in the first year of graduation.

Principal Hart didn't designate any teacher to take Bai Tongtong with him. Every day, the two of them went to the office first to see the teachers' schedules for today's classes, and then temporarily stuffed Bai Tongtong inside.

Bai Tongtong is very popular with the students. The calculation problems and various experiments that are troublesome to them seem to be done without thinking by her. They are happy to ask her for advice.But in the magic practice class, Bai Tongtong's continuous rapid development skills deeply hit the poor students. The children from the magician family who are used to walking sideways at school don't have her quality, and they are all frightened by her godlike progress. Arrived.

By the end of June, the class hours that should be attended have all ended normally, and the students have entered the stage of self-review before the exam. All the teachers have more free time. Bai Tongtong started the cross-department study again, and learned very well from other teachers. Lehu, she is also full of curiosity about the three types of magic, black, white and gray, and humbly asks for advice on how to make more effective healing potions and healing scrolls.

The teachers are all long-established archmages, but their identities are different after all. There is no direct channel for His Majesty’s news like Principal Hart’s, not to mention that their tasks are also confidential. , I want something better to protect my health and safety.

Bai Tongtong also laughed along, telling the teachers about the various thrilling moments he had encountered in the field, and they were taken aback for a while, and the rest would be easy to handle.

The students were reviewing and preparing for the exam, and the laboratory was idle. Bai Tongtong soaked in it from morning till night to practice various techniques taught by the teachers. However, Principal Hart received a letter asking for help, along with a wooden A box containing a bit of crushed ore.

Bai Tongtong got this new task that night. Before she left the capital in March this year, the mineral merchant Tavel, who was introduced by Principal Hart and came to her to identify the grade of the ore, was conspired and went bankrupt, thinking that it was a rich ore vein. The mine is actually an abandoned mine, and all the money invested has turned into smoke. I even sold the house to pay off the debts. Now I rent a friend's house and rely on a little dowry from my wife to maintain the basic life of the family.

"I remember that Tavel is an honest businessman, so I asked him to go to you to identify the ore. I didn't expect such an unfortunate thing to happen." Principal Hart shook his head regretfully.

"He only took one piece of ore at the time. When I went to Xiulun Town, he brought out a box, although the final grade was not very good." It happened a few months ago, but this is the first time for appraisal, so it is still I remember more clearly.

Principal Hart pushed the box to Bai Tongtong, "Tavel said that this is the ore that was identified that day. He wants to know where the real source is. Waste mines can't produce such good ore, right? But considering his current situation Revenge is too difficult, you run this leg for me and end this matter."

"Uh, given his situation, he can't even pay the appraisal fee?" Bai Tongtong put the box by his hand.

"That's why I let you go." Principal Hart shrugged, "You identified him. Although someone else set up a trap to harm him, in the eyes of irrelevant outsiders, it will cause a weak evaluation of you. You This is an opportunity to save your own reputation."

"Does anyone think that I'm in collusion with a liar to harm Tavel?!" Bai Tongtong pointed at her nose and jumped up, screaming.

Principal Hart just pointed to himself silently.

Bai Tongtong calmed down in an instant, and leaned over with his hands on the table, "No one will harm you, right? You are the principal of the Magic and Martial Arts Academy."

"Something like gossip is sometimes more lethal than you can imagine." Principal Hart was very calm. "The chair of the principal is just like the chair of the elders' house. Everyone wants it."

Bai Tongtong stood up straight with tense body, full of pride, "Okay, I'll take care of this! But I have to wait until I finish a few experiments in hand."

"I believe Tavel can wait a few more days. You should write him a letter first, tell him not to do stupid things, and collect all the evidence that can be collected first."

"Okay, I'll go back to my room and write." Bai Tongtong immediately went back to the bedroom with the letter in his left hand and the box in his right.

Ah Huang was on his back in the middle of the bed. When Bai Tongtong rushed back to the room, he jumped up in shock, and watched her busy in front of the writing desk with sleepy eyes.

【What are you doing?Such a beautiful night without sleep. 】

"Do you still remember the businessman who came to me for appraisal? He went bankrupt." Bai Tongtong stood at the table with paper, pen and ink.

[Isn't that rich ore?Said that you made a mistake in the appraisal and asked you to compensate? 】Ah Huang jumped up to the writing desk in dismay, and sat down at the corner of the desk.

"The ore is a rich ore, but the ore is a waste mine." Bai Tongtong dragged a chair and sat down, reread the letter, and pondered the idea of ​​replying.

【what?Business scam?fraud?Where did the ore come from? 】

"So we need to do ore analysis experiments to find out where the ore comes from."

[Then what about the experiments you have in hand? 】

"Just do it. I'll write the poor guy a letter first, tell him to be patient, and don't be too anxious to get angry and kill his family."

Ah Huang yawned heavily, 【That means we are going out again. 】

"Yeah, I hope he can keep it a secret, don't tell the story, or the liars will start a ruthless attack, and it may not be possible to kill him, he still has a wife and children."

Ah Huang, who felt that this task was not difficult, jumped back on the bed bored, and continued to sleep on his back.

The letter was sent early the next morning, and Bai Tongtong spent several days in the school laboratory, but she planned too hard in the early stage. She did not complete her experiment until the final exam was over, and Tavel's reply letter was delivered just in time. Waiting for her arrival with anticipation.

Bai Tongtong packed her luggage and returned to the capital with the principal's family.

After returning after three months, Bai Tongtong feels that the city is still the same. What is a little new is that the magic pet shop that he often goes to has new flavors of pet food, which Ah Huang likes very much.

Under the realistic conditions without an ore analyzer, Bai Tongtong finally saw the true power of earth magic. With the help of the ingeniously designed earth-type composite magic array, the known iron ore components were first stripped out, and the remaining rocks and other impurities were removed. Cut the fixed particles into small pieces, and then do chemical experiments step by step. Through different chemical reactions, we finally found evidence that can be used to indicate the source. After comparing with the existing information, there are several possible sources. , but no matter which one it is, it does not match the geological conditions of the Wadai Hills where the ore veins are located in Tavel's letter.

In the words of President Hart, the unique crystal sand of Wadai Hills was not found in the experiment, so it can be judged that the ore did not come from the Wadai Hills area rich in metal mineral resources.

Tavel has indeed encountered a scam.

Bai Tongtong wrote a detailed experiment report and copied two more copies. The original copy was kept in the principal's hands. She packed up her luggage and rushed to Slagosse Town where Tavel lives now with the copy.

The town of Slagosse is actually located in the east-central part of the north-south Wadai Hills region. There are hundreds of towns and villages in this famous mineral resource area, and the southern end of the entire hill is the city of Kedi Cove.

But if you think about it, if there is no continuous supply of resources, how can Coffs City in Keke survive the various confrontations with Rebjanik on the other side.Isn't it just relying on the backing?
