Chapter 271 Receptionist: Money's hard to earn, and life's tough...
Poor receptionist Ellie trembled under Xueyi's inorganic gaze.
But she still insisted on putting on a smile.
Although it's a bit distorted.
"This...excuse me, what is this...?"
Ellie's language system is a bit confused.
Luckily, she's not an android, or she'd be emitting black smoke by now.
Xueyi looked at her: "Any objections?"
When Zhenjun sent the message to General Shence, he said that the prisoner would turn himself in, and that they should just wait.
But she felt she shouldn't just "wait" in a normal way.
So she went to the front desk and told them her purpose in what she thought was the kindest tone.
My younger sister said that as long as she speaks, she is being gentle.
But it seems the receptionist in front of me doesn't think so.
"Guest, may I... may I go and inform the head of the household first?"
Ellie felt that she couldn't understand the current situation, so she needed to find someone who could understand and handle it to deal with the matter.
Xueyi nodded calmly: "The True Lord said that the criminal will be turning himself in soon. Please, the heads of the 'Clans', be patient. It's just one person. It won't affect the normal communication between the Alliance and the Clans."
Ellie: ...
It shouldn't have any impact... Although Ellie just heard that someone from her family had infiltrated the Immortal Ship Alliance and destroyed a highly confidential location.
This doesn't seem like something an ordinary family member would do.
Ellie turned around awkwardly, preparing to make a phone call to her family head to request powerful outside help—
Suddenly, Sunday, the young head of the Oak family, one of the Pinocchio "families," arrived in the lobby, accompanied by his sister, Robin.
Ellie felt as if she had been granted a pardon.
"Mr. Sunday."
She hurried forward, saying, "Please forgive my rudeness, but we've encountered some unexpected circumstances here. I'm afraid I can't handle it alone, so I'd like to ask you..."
"Don't worry, they're here to see me."
Sunday interrupted Ellie's voice and looked at Xueyi.
"This must be the guest from the Immortal Boat Alliance... You must have already received the news—I am Sunday, and I'm here to turn myself in..."
Ellie: ? ? ? Huh?
The receptionist said that as a Pinocene employee, what hadn't she seen?
She had genuinely never seen anything like it before!
Ellie tilted her head.
No, what did she hear?
As one of the heads of the Pinocchio family, Mr. Sunday actually... actually...
Ellie felt that she probably shouldn't be working here anymore. Look, she was so busy that she was hallucinating. She even saw one of the leaders of the powerful family surrendering himself.
This is absolutely terrifying.
However, this is not an illusion.
"You sent people to infiltrate the Immortal Ship Alliance and sabotage the Nether Prison, leading to the escape of a serious criminal, right?"
Xueyi didn't directly say that the one who escaped was a Great Lord of Annihilation—the Immortal Boat Alliance still had some shame; the Great Lord of Annihilation had just been imprisoned, but as soon as the True Lord left, she ran away.
shame.
Although it's already embarrassing enough, I'll try to minimize the embarrassment.
Sunday nodded: "It wasn't my order, but I was aware of it."
Xueyi nodded, signaling the officers behind her to step forward and handcuff the prisoner.
Then, under the watchful eyes of everyone, the judge of the Ten Kings' Division took the person away, while several Cloud Cavalry soldiers watched from a distance.
Although arresting criminals is the job of the Ten Kings' Division, the Cloud Cavalry Army will undoubtedly cooperate.
The nearby guests watched this scene with a variety of expressions, it was quite a sight.
Sunday is quite well-known, and many people know him. Moreover, many people believe that even if he has made a mistake, as a person of high status within the family, he should be judged within their own family.
This is generally accepted throughout the universe.
To be taken away by other forces like that, and even surrendering yourself... this...
Oh, the Immortal Boat Alliance also has a First Envoy eyeing it covetously.
Then there's no problem.
He claims to have turned himself in, but who knows what the real situation is?
"Excuse me, my brother...?"
The robin looked at Snowcoat with concern.
Xueyi looked at her and said, "Don't worry, we are acting on the True Lord's orders. Considering that no serious crime has been committed, we will only give her a minor punishment and will not do anything outrageous."
Ellie watched in a daze as the head of the family was taken away, and Miss Robin even exchanged a few words with the other party.
She was shattered.
Danheng and Potio, who had been watching them closely, were as follows: ...
Danheng calmly looked at Potio: "See? I don't think my partner is in danger."
Potio covered his face: "They've already been captured, what danger could there be?"
In his opinion, even if Pinocchio had some major issues... they're probably all over by now.

As the feeling of weightlessness disappeared, Yunzhi opened her eyes.
At this moment, he was standing under a dark sky.
He looked around.
—A sea of blood filled the view, and the faint wails of wronged souls echoed from all around, the stench of blood lingering in the air.
Yun felt a little uncomfortable.
He successfully used the invitation's anchor point to reach the location designated by the music box.
But there was nothing around there.
Strange, shouldn't there be someone here?
Yun scratched her head in confusion.
Okay, it seems like this is like running around on a map; you have to find people yourself.
Just then, there was a very peculiar sight not far away—although that large, dark sphere looked ominous, it must be an important landmark.
Yunzhi walked in that direction.
—Who sent the invitation?
Soon, he saw two figures beneath the sphere.
—Is she one of those two people?
However, one of them was already dead, and the other...
Isn't that the Yellow Springs?
