Do not confiscate my citizenship

Chapter 739: Lanqi bravely enters the Mafia

"Boss Cat, calm down and tell me where you are."

Lanqi held the communication magic card to his cheeks with both hands and asked quickly.

The communication effect is very poor.

He wasn't sure what specific message the cat boss wanted to convey.

But it could tell that the cat owner's voice was a signal for help.

"Lan... meow... danger... hurry..."

I heard pretty much the same thing.

Lanqi looked at Talia, and Talia also had a question mark on her face.

It seemed that not only they couldn't hear clearly what Boss Cat said, Boss Cat also couldn't hear clearly Lanqi's instructions.

Ding dong, bang bang.

In addition to the communication magic, the doorbell rang downstairs, accompanied by some heavy knocks on the door.

It was as if someone had just found him at this moment, and was very anxious, not caring at all that he was a professor at St. Cremona's Monastery.

Logically speaking, Professor Landry had just arrived at St. Clement's Monastery for a week, and Secretary Naira had helped him hide his address information. Apart from Secretary Naira and a small number of people within the academy, no one should know where he lived.

Under normal circumstances, even if it was someone selling insurance, Lanqi would open the door and have a good chat with them.

But Lanqi can't care about others now. No matter who comes to see him, it is secondary. The most important thing is Boss Cat and Elsa.

"Empty...Box...Alley...Meow..."

The cat boss's IQ seemed to be gradually rising. Even without hearing Lanqi's instructions, he probably found out what useful things to say.

"Why are you looking at me? I don't understand what Boss Cat is saying."

Talia suddenly felt that Lanqi was a little damnable. She was not a cat, so how could she understand the cat boss's meaning more easily than Lanqi?

On the contrary, Lanci has a group of animal friends wherever he goes. He can even talk to the birds on the balcony. Talia really can't understand why Lanci can understand the language of animals.

"Very good, even if the communication is not good, you still have to say 'meow'."

Lanqi really couldn't understand the compressed text in Boss Cat's message.

The sound was still intermittent, and it was difficult to judge what the cat boss meant. Lanqi could only put the magic card to his ear and quickly walked downstairs.

The doorbell kept ringing. It was the first time that Lanqi felt that guessing riddles and taking listening tests were so difficult.

In a storybook about a different world that he read in his spare time, the heroine only said one word each time, and the hero somehow understood what she meant, and then only replied with one word, leaving the readers confused every time.

How Lanqi now wishes he had the ability of this male protagonist.

But after all, that is just a beautiful story that only exists in novels and has nothing to do with this world. There is no need to force the fictional story and reality together.

"Lanqi, think positively, Boss Cat's speech habit is still so clear."

Talia also returned to Lanqi's body and went downstairs with him.

She sensed Lanqi's anxiety and tried to comfort him.

Although Lanqi appeared calm as usual, she could read Lanqi's thoughts clearly. Lanqi's heartbeat was faster than when she pressed him against the wall just now.

"..."

Lan Qi nodded.

No matter what, Boss Cat is still an eighth-level spell. If he really releases a large-scale eighth-level spell in Brildae, the entire city-state will enter early warning mode. Now it is still calm outside, which means that Boss Cat is just hiding in the shadows and using communication magic to contact him, and he has not used any of his trump cards.

According to his instructions, unless absolutely necessary, it would be best if Boss Cat did not use any spells, as his rank was too high and his spells were too exaggerated.

Boss Cat knows very well that he should try his best not to expose himself. The best way is to shake Landry over. He has the sixth-level professor status of Landry, and there is a lot of room for adjustment in the upper and lower limits of his shots.

Come to the first floor entrance.

Lanqi grabbed the door handle and turned it. He was about to go out and see who was looking for him at this time.

The night has completely enveloped the courtyard. The cold moonlight sprinkles on the grass, covering everything around with a layer of silvery gauze.

Outside the door, a girl with purple hair and blue eyes raised her hand and was about to continue knocking on the door. She was wearing a black suspender skirt, and there was a hint of impatience on her delicate girlish features, while her eyes looked handsome like a boy because of her heroic spirit.

The moment she saw the door open, she stopped her hand, otherwise she might have slapped Professor Landry.

"Ursula-san?"

Lanqi didn't expect that the uninvited guest was Ursula Rowland, a student in his course.

He was deeply impressed by the daughter of the Marquis, who was also the younger sister of the Ninth Military God, Marquis Ryan of the Amethyst Seat.

It's not that she is really talented. Whether it is magic engineering or practical magic skills, she is already at the top level among first-year students.

"Elsa is missing."

Ursula said to Lanqi hurriedly with a sullen face.

"Ok?"

Lanqi still held the communication magic card with the occasional cat meow to his ear, but his eyes were focused on Ursula.

"As a brother, don't you care about your sister at all?"

Ursula rolled her eyes for a moment, feeling extremely angry at Landry's ignorant state.

Originally, she was thinking of finding an excuse to skip the play that Elsa had agreed to attend tonight, so that Elsa could watch the show with her beloved brother.

As a result, Landry decisively rejected his sister's invitation for the sake of work.

Given Elsa's soft-spoken personality, she definitely wouldn't say a word more.

Now that I'm at Landry's house, he still looks like he's obsessed with work, like he's lost in work, having just come down from his lighted study on the second floor.

"It was my negligence. Please tell me what happened."

Lanqi walked out directly, and the door behind him automatically closed as the bearing retreated. He stood in the courtyard at the door and asked Ursula.

He didn't care about Ursula's attitude, because Ursula was always casual in class. As a professor, he was already accustomed to the way his students learned. What he cared about now was whether Ursula knew any information about Elsa and the cat boss.

"Elsa and I agreed to have dinner together tonight and go to the premiere of a play, but she didn't come to the dormitory to find me at the agreed time. She is never late, and she will always notify me even if she has something urgent to do. I went to her dormitory next door but couldn't find her, so I used a short-distance communication magic device to contact her, but found out that she was not in school at all."

Ursula said, frowning.

She had told Elsa that she must come.

Because she didn't tell Elsa that she was actually planning to take Elsa to persuade Professor Landry to put down his work and go to watch the play.

Ursula had been planning to drag Landry out today and have him accompany Elsa. If she told Elsa, she would definitely not agree.

As a result, Elsa did not return to St. Clement's Monastery.

Ursula felt that something was increasingly wrong.

"If you had agreed to go out with Elsa, there wouldn't be so much trouble."

Ursula was extremely dissatisfied with his behavior. Her green eyes narrowed slightly, and her tone was full of disdain and disgust.
"How important is your career ambition? Is it more important than your sister?"

Elsa's afternoon schedule today was actually very simple. She would just go to the Temple of the Goddesses to pray to the goddess for a while as usual, and then go back to school. There was no reason for her to suddenly disappear.

So she immediately found the easiest teacher to find.

Landry.

She had some problems with the other teachers, and they might not actively help, but this guy was the kid's brother.

Anyway, she had prepared to come see him today.

"My elf cat is on Elsa, but the communication is very poor. Can you analyze where Elsa is?" After listening to the whole story, Lanqi nodded calmly and asked Ursula.

He placed the [Ultra-Long-Distance Communication Program] next to Ursula's ear.

"!"

Ursula's eyes were puzzled at first, but she didn't refuse. After hearing Lanqi's explanation, her eyes soon lit up.

She listened carefully to the noise and the childish meows coming from the communication magic.

"My cat just mentioned the words 'box' and 'alley' repeatedly. Do you know where there are boxes and alleys?"

Lanqi asked, trying not to disturb her.

The other words of "Cat Boss" are too abstract, only these two can be inferred as nouns more clearly.

"She goes to the Brillda Pantheon to pray every weekend. Judging from the route she takes back to the monastery, there are boxes and alleys, and it has to be somewhere dangerous..."

Ursula pinched her brows, tried to think, and murmured,
"That's probably only the port area southeast of Blildah, which is the territory of the Blildah Mafia."

Her brows relaxed, she looked at Lanqi and got the answer.

Although she felt that no matter how Elsa deviated her route, she would not go to the port, but from Landry's description, that was the only possible place.

Otherwise, bringing a fifth-level spirit beast into town would not be dangerous.

The only explanation is that Elsa was forcibly sent to the gray area of ​​the mafia by someone using a space magic prop.

Space magic, like divination magic, is not only rare and precious, but also often has great limitations.

Just like teleportation magic, either the distance is extremely short, or the energy consumption is extremely high, or the teleportation target must be of a very low level.

"Are you sure?"

Lanqi took back the communication magic card and stared at Ursula, asking her.

After all, he was an outsider who had just arrived in the Krelian Empire. No matter how well he knew the map, he could not see all the landmarks of the super-large city of Brillda.

And all this seemed vivid in Ursula's eyes.

"One hundred percent. I'm very familiar with every part of Brillda. I'm the best scout in the first grade."

Ursula told him firmly,
"Go find Secretary Naira. The Mafia not only has sixth-level cadres, but also seventh-level leaders. There are even rumors that there is a boss behind the scenes. You must not mess with them."

Ursula grabbed Lankey's suit jacket by his elbow and instructed him on his next move without delay.

She was finally relieved, and was thankful that Landry had put the contracted beast on Elsa. Not only did this allow her to find the key clue, but she also had a powerful contracted beast to protect her. Elsa was at least much safer.

It seems that Elsa was not deceived by her scumbag brother. Elsa, as a brother, still considered her sister's safety.

"Principal Violet is not here. Please tell me which places in the port area have more containers."

Lanci simply explained the situation clearly and naturally broke away from Ursula's hand.

If Principal Violet hadn't stepped in personally, there would be no way to solve all the problems in an instant.

Apart from Principal Violet, Saint Cremorne Monastery currently has no other extraordinary combat power of level seven or above. It would be too slow to let Secretary Nara handle it. Maybe by then Boss Cat will have to take action.

"Calm down!"

Ursula understood immediately what Landry was going to do.

This guy wants to break into the Brillda Mafia's port on his own.

The huge Black Hand territory was like a complicated maze even on the periphery, making it totally unsuitable for one to sneak in alone.

Ursula knew that Landry was not weak. He was a sixth-level magic craftsman. He could probably defeat very strong opponents of the same level with his wisdom, just like he did on the Brillda train.

But in the home of the Brildad Mafia, he would be shattered if touched, and the other side could defeat him with just the number of people!
"Trust me, I'm not going to die."

Lanqi lowered his head and looked into Ursula's eyes, speaking to her word by word.

Those deep blue eyes were clear and sincere, and particularly bright in the night.

"..."

Ursula was speechless for a moment, and her slightly parted lips slowly stopped moving.

She had rarely been looked at like this.

It was like actually seeing her.

Not only believe in her, but also ask her to believe in herself.

Sometimes persuasion without reason may be the best persuasion, because the look in this man's eyes does not look like a reckless man who is going to die, but a man who has a clear understanding of the chances of winning.

"Let's go together. I'll show you the way."

Ursula said firmly instead.

Maybe this seemed like a risky adventure, but she had never been afraid of anything, and her fearlessness in school was never an act.

She was sure that Elsa's brother really cared about Elsa, and that was enough for her to trust this man.

"..."

Lanqi's eyes were a little hesitant.

After all, she is the daughter of Marquis Roland's family and the sister of the Ninth God of War. If she is dragged into danger, it may cause great trouble.

What's more, if Naira's secretary really knew that he had brought a female student into the mafia's area, he would definitely be scolded. The nature of this matter can be said to be quite bad.

"Take me with you, I can smell Elsa."

Ursula added succinctly, returning the professor's look.

She is not a reckless person either!
"Tata, go to the southeast port."

Lanqi explained in his heart.

Anyway, it was a gray area, and battles below level seven could be conducted casually. He and Talia had fought too many dirty fights in the Holy Silver Vine Arena in the Flower City of Pariah, so they knew how to control their strength.

Most common flying magics are wind magic and telekinetic magic. Talia is better at special magic than elemental magic, and the levitation magic she uses is also telekinetic.

In an instant, weeds began to dance on the lawn in the courtyard, and the figures of Lanqi and Ursula merged into the night sky.

"Excuse me, Ursula."

Lanqi immediately turned around and said to her in mid-air.

"It's hard for you to find her accurately by yourself. With me here, you don't have to distract yourself too much to protect me, but you can find her several times faster. I promise!"

Ursula raised the corners of her mouth in satisfaction and answered him.

As the eldest daughter of the Roland family with the blood of ancient griffins, she also possesses the potential for magical talent, and the [Reconnaissance] magic that she is best at means that her magic talent is also of the reconnaissance attribute.

Not only can she smell Elsa's body, but she can also smell her magic. In other words, as long as she locks on a target, she will find it no matter what kind of concealment magic she uses.

"You must pay attention to your own safety."

Lanci instructed.

He couldn't let other students be put in danger or even get hurt just to protect Elsa.

"I know. Just take care of yourself first. The Mafia is much more dangerous than you think!"

Ursula nodded and responded from high in the air.

Although she had never thought that someone else's brother would take her to do something as exciting as running into the mafia, at this moment she felt more of a long-lost excitement than fear.
