Alien landlady

Chapter 85
In the study, his master had already returned, and was reading documents while tasting wine.

Harding stepped forward and rubbed the man's arm, and the man freed his hand to scratch its neck.

【Thanks for your hard work.all the best? 】

[Of course, Mardo and the others took the captive away. 】

[Where is the school? 】

[It's all normal. They are eating strange food happily, and they look delicious. 】

The man patted the pet's head again amusedly, 【What are they talking about? 】

【Prince Kalljador hopes to cooperate with the cat partner, and he is willing to provide land for her to do further experiments on increasing production.But she refused, saying that the thing that increased production was just a by-product of an experiment, and she wanted to find out if it was garbage, so she tried to do the experiment. Now that she has achieved her goal, she will not go further in this direction for the time being.She also said that if you want to change the location, you need to do the soil analysis again, which takes a lot of time. 】

The man smiled faintly, [This is really her life-saving method, she must have done similar experiments long ago, knowing that the so-called by-products are useful things, after being attacked by a killer, she deliberately used a public experiment to show that she potential value.Her goal has indeed been achieved, and even His Majesty knows about it, and asked me what I think through the mouth of the dean in the morning.What can I think? I didn't study earth magic back then. 】

[But for the dean, you are the most suitable to have an opinion. Before the cat's partner appeared, you were a genius student in the school, and you were almost a dual-line mage back then. 】

[What kind of gifted student, how long ago did it happen? The freshmen who came in the year I graduated all graduated last year, and no one has remembered me for a long time. 】

[What are you talking about? It’s just an opportunity that didn’t mention you. Farrell Baldrick, a student who doubled in the wind and alchemy departments, had a rare talent and excellent grades. You gave up becoming a formal magician and inherited My father became a low-level clerk of the elders. Many people thought it was because of your unmotivated brother. I heard that many unmarried girls cried bitterly for you all night and felt sorry for you.Tch, only I know how happy you are to enter the elders' house, and you don't feel sad or regretful at all. 】 Harding turned his upper lip and bared his teeth.

【how?Good night for nostalgic memories? 】The man put down the document, picked up the wine glass, and grasped Harding’s fur with the other hand tightly and loosely with his free hand. His deep voice revealed a happy mood, 【You like to peek at other people’s secrets and love rumors and gossips the most in this world. Guy with confidential information, I finished the official formalities and was still visiting the environment, when you popped up behind you, with a seductive and depraved devil face, mysteriously saying what kind of deal. 】

Harding showed a wolf's cunning expression, and opened his mouth lazily, [Of course, the Elder's House is the distribution center of national intelligence and news, among which the clerks have the most information, but few people know how to use it correctly.I've been here for a long time, and I know someone's child just by looking at someone's face. If it didn't arouse my interest, I wouldn't bother to strike up a conversation with you. Facts have proved that my vision is no worse than that cat. 】

Harding held his head up and chest out triumphantly.

[Well, you are much stronger than it, it is still a brat, you don't need to pay attention to it at all. 】

Harding rolled his ears happily, 【The cat's partner is still your junior, isn't it very proud of a junior with such a unique talent?She is also studying under Master Jules now, maybe she wants to train her as the second you. 】

[Unique is unique, talent, don't jump to conclusions too quickly. ] The man took a sip of his wine, not knowing what he was thinking.

【This uniqueness is enough. It has already attracted foreigners to kill her. The production increase experiment has just begun, and our enemies are even more eager to kill her. 】

[It's normal. Too many people think that the cat did it with the help of her. She can rest assured that our enemy is dead. She still needs some opportunities to show her other strengths. 】

【This is really difficult.How about finding a battlefield somewhere and throwing her out with the cat? 】

【Before they leave, they can find the person who gave this bad idea, and then loot it all. Do you want me to go bankrupt? 】

Harding didn't say anything for a while, tilting his head and looking like he was thinking about it.

The man lowered his eyes and tasted the wine. He had a lot of work to do, and he didn't revolve around one person all the time. In his opinion, the cat's companion was just unique enough for now, not yet worthy of his full attention.

Harding touched the man's hand with his nose, 【The Earl of Berwick has suffered such a big loss, it seems that he hasn't heard any unusual information until now?Now that the ice and snow have melted on their side, it is a good time to fight. 】

【Ok?Hmm... It's unusually quiet, go over and see if they are secretly cooperating in a conspiracy. 】

【Go early tomorrow morning. 】Harding's eyes flashed with the blood of a wolf.

In the early morning of the next day, Bai Tongtong was still taking good care of her experimental field. Looking at the crops that were already heading, she could finally understand the joy of farmers when they saw a good harvest.

A few days later, early on Saturday morning, Ah Huang took Bai Tongtong to the seaside city he had been to, bought some high-quality fresh seafood, took them back to the dormitory, made soup with whole chicken, added enough water to cover it, and stewed it for a whole day and night. On the next Sunday, I took it to the residence of Master Jules in Menise City, filtered the soup dregs with gauze, left half for the guests to taste, and used the half as broth for cooking.

At night, in the big restaurant, Principal Hart, his wife, Master Jules, and Bai Tongtong, a total of four people, regardless of the guest of honor, sat facing each other. The butler served the dishes in the order Bai Tongtong explained, and four bowls of soup with nothing in it were served. , the principal and the three of them didn't recognize what it was, and after tasting it, they discovered the mystery and praised the deliciousness.

Everyone had a great time at this dinner, and Bai Tongtong cooked it carefully with her New Year's Eve dinner skills to express a little gratitude to the principal and Master Jules.

When chatting during the meal, Bai Tongtong's experimental field was the key topic, and matters related to food were worthy of His Majesty's personal attention.

How to increase food production has always been the heart disease of the earth mages. The people think they are mineral resource providers, but for the upper-level power holders, the earth mages, of course, deal directly with the land, and of course solve the problem of food production. expert.

It's a pity that the predecessors have experienced too many failures, which has caused most of the younger generations to gradually develop in the direction of easy achievement. At present, the only thing that can be seen is the grain, but it is only suitable for the climate and planting conditions of the granary plain, and it will not work in another place. .

Archmages of the level of Jules and Hart can get a small piece of territory from His Majesty, which is not too big, but it is more than enough to build a manor, but they prefer to be with old friends in the city, Otherwise, according to their age, they would have gone to the countryside to enjoy the life of landlords long ago.

With the dual identities of a landlord and an earth mage, of course he is more concerned about the results of Bai Tongtong's experiment.

Bai Tongtong’s words remain unchanged. Good-looking results at the beginning of the experiment do not mean that the results will be as good-looking later on. This requires more time, more land, and more cross-validation of various experimental schemes to formulate new standards.And she has learned too little, so she decided to put it on hold for the time being and talk about it later.

"Maybe there will be new and better things in a few days." Bai Tongtong shrugged, "It's not good to be too impatient."

As the night passed, the attention received by the experimental field also decreased. Maybe it was because the excitement was enough, or maybe because the weather was getting hotter, the number of guests outside the school gradually decreased, and everything returned to calm.

A whole week later, on Sunday morning, Bai Tongtong seized the time to complete the daily observation records in front of the experimental field before the sun shone violently. When he returned to the dormitory, he found another note lying on the ground behind the door. , Pick it up and see that the principal is looking for her urgently.

When she came to the principal's office, she saw Trim was there. The young master looked like an ant on a hot pot, circling around the principal, not knowing what to say, and seeing Bai Tongtong coming in, he jumped at her again.

"Wait! I know that everyone loves me, but you don't have to be so enthusiastic." Bai Tongtong squeezed Trim's face with a smile, and walked towards the principal sitting on the sofa amidst his stinky face.

"Hello, principal."

Principal Hart looked serious, as if Trim had given him a headache just now, he just waved to Bai Tongtong to signal her to sit down.

"Okay, Carjado, it's useless to beg me. You have to take the final exam before you can go home. If you dare to skip class, you won't be able to use it next semester." The principal only looked at Trim.

"Please, principal, let me go back. I can't watch my family fight with Berwick and not go back to help. They need me." Trim pleaded, almost kneeling in front of the principal.

Bai Tongtong raised her eyebrows high, looked at A Huang who was lying on the armrest of the sofa in surprise, and turned her head to listen carefully to the conversation between the principal and Trim. She knew that now was not a good time for her to interrupt.

"Tamir and Berwick have fought for decades. Without you, you won more and lost less. You can't help when you go back. You can stay at home and study, but it helps your family. Your family doesn't have to worry about you. safety."

"Well, what the principal said makes sense." Bai Tongtong couldn't help but interjected softly.

"Tongtong!" Trim stared at Bai Tongtong with watery eyes, his face was flushed, his expression was distorted, anxious and angry, "You won't help me either!"

Bai Tongtong hurriedly raised his hand in front of his chest in a gesture of surrender, wrinkling his face with a weird expression, "Then tell me, what can you do to help when you go back? Do you go into battle to kill the enemy with your own hands, or throw a big fireball behind? Or be a soldier on both sides?" When they are in a group, can you sneak in and attack the general?"

Trim was left speechless by the question, looked at the principal and then at Bai Tongtong, stomped his feet a few times angrily, and sat down on another sofa to sulk.

Bai Tongtong gave the angry Trim a smile, turned to look at the principal, and found that Principal Hart was staring at him sideways, which made her shrug her shoulders in fright.

"headmaster?"

"You!" Principal Hart leaned forward towards Bai Tongtong, pointing a finger at her nose, "Tell me honestly, when you found out that the Earl of Berwick was behind the scenes, you really didn't do anything else. of?"

"Uh, principal, what is 'other'?" Bai Tongtong opened his eyes slightly, with a puzzled expression, pretending to be stupid and stunned.

"The reason for Berwick's invasion is that they discovered that a thief from our side sneaked into the Earl of Berwick's mansion last winter to steal. The time was around when you discovered that the former Earl of Berwick was a profiteer." Trim suddenly said from He jumped up on the sofa and yelled loudly at Bai Tongtong.

"Ah? The Earl has changed?" Bai Tongtong finished her blunt intuition, then slowly closed her lips, and let out a stiff voice, "Oh..."

Seeing Bai Tongtong's deliberately contrived performance, Principal Hart and Trim were speechless for a moment. There was a sense of powerlessness caused by the sudden arrival of the truth, and Trim couldn't help lowering his voice and restraining his emotions. She, "Did you really steal the Earl of Berwick?"

Bai Tongtong raised his eyebrows, and grinned his mouth showing a mouthful of beautiful white teeth, "Hey, why must I do it? He sold counterfeit goods under my name, I'll check it out, and then I stole things from his house ? If there is evidence, you can talk nonsense with just one mouth."

"I didn't say that, don't think too much." Trim stepped back three steps and waved his hands again and again to clear the relationship.

"Cough, cough, cough..." Bai Tongtong coughed three times, trying to bring back the topic of the conversation. He was clearly talking about the war between the two sides, "I said, what did you call me here for? The new Earl of Berwick Leading troops to invade Tamir, where is the fight now? Tamir is unprepared? The other party sneak attack? What is there to worry about after fighting each other so many times?"

"It's different this time." Trim sighed weakly, retreated to his original place and sat down, "This time we got the information in advance and made the deployment. The Earl of Berwick personally led the troops to launch the attack in the middle of the night. War is no different, but they have given this reason, the nature is different, if they lose, maybe the Grand Council above will send troops to support, and then the whole United Kingdom may be ready."

"Impossible? If there is a big trouble, His Majesty will not ignore it, and it will become a war between two big countries. Their living environment is harsh and their living supplies are scarce. If they really use up all their troops, the rear will be empty, and they will not be afraid of us." The shadowless cat here led troops to sneak into the bloodbath capital?" Bai Tongtong stroked Ah Huang's fur, and Ah Huang let out a cute Nya.

This news was quite shocking, but it was expected. The Pokley United Kingdom's revenge would happen sooner or later, but I didn't expect to choose such a direct method. It was a simple and violent creature.
