1626 The Huge Shadow in the Sea At Nigh (1/2)

Edited by Aelryinth

He brought Leng Qing down the mountain to have dinner with the others.

Mo Fan was thinking of having pizza as dinner, but Zhao Manyan immediately rejected his proposal.

Mo Fan's thoughts were full of pizzas whenever he was around the Mediterranean Sea. He would rather go to Pizza Hut if he had a choice.

Zhao Manyan's choice was completely different; it was on a mountainside facing the calm sea. The food was delicious, and opposite him were some gorgeous ladies. It was perfect for the atmosphere… huh, why was Mu Bai here, too? Who invited this assh***? Why didn't he go die instead!?

”And this is?” Brianca asked politely.

”Leng Qing, my senior sister. She's also the Vice Head of the Lingyin Enforcement Union. She has been convalescing here lately,” Mo Fan introduced her.

”Nice to meet you! Mo Fan told me that you two are from the Alps Institute. I've always wanted to visit it,” Leng Qing smiled. She surprisingly had a gentle, elegant demeanor, perhaps because she had spent quite some time resting in the Parthenon Temple. She was not like that in the past. She was simply so busy with the Enforcement Union that she had simply put everything else aside.

It was true that a person's frame of mind would change after experiencing death. That being said, why did his habit of courting death never change, even though he was constantly roaming in front of the gates of Hell?...

”China's Enforcement Union, a reputable organization! I didn't expect their elders to be so young,” Brianca complimented her.

”Stop fawning on one another, will you? It will only make us feel worse,” Zhao Manyan groaned.

Leng Qing was around the same age as Brianca, but both of them were already Super Mages. Zhao Manyan's mood worsened as soon as he thought about it.

”Speaking of which, Miss Brianca, where did you go after you left us?” Mo Fan asked curiously.

”I went to investigate something, mm...” Brianca glanced at Leng Qing. She paused briefly before spilling the beans, ”A Candidate of the Parthenon Temple might be responsible for the conspiracy at the Alps Institute.”

”Oh, I see!” Mo Fan nodded. He did not go any further.

Mo Fan already knew Edith was taking orders from Izisha. Izisha was the one who had put Herr Casa under the poisonous Curse, but as long as Edith did not admit it, Mo Fan could not afford to shed light on it. He had not told Brianca and Heidi about it.

To his surprise, Headmistress Perry, Miss Ceylan, and Miss Brianca were not easy to fool, either. If they had already figured it out, the situation was clearly heading the way Mo Fan favored. Otherwise, that detestable Izisha would still act like she had nothing to do with it, even though she was the one pulling the strings!

”Which candidate are you referring to?” Leng Qing asked.

Brianca glanced at Mo Fan before nodding, ”The whole thing isn't as simple as it seems. Edith also admitted something shocking at the Holy Judgment Court.”

”It looks like Headmistress Perry's decision was right?” Mo Fan wondered.

Headmistress Perry was willing to protect Edith, even if it meant provoking the Casas. Edith did not completely lose her rationality. She had admitted Izisha was behind it in the end, but did not confess much. Therefore, Brianca had to investigate further.

As for the details of the conspiracy, or if Izisha was up to something worse behind the scenes, the Alps Institute would have to seek out the truth themselves. After all, he did not know much about it, either!

”Humph, the people of the Parthenon Temple are no good!” Heidi said.

”Not everyone there is hateful,” Mo Fan countered awkwardly.

Mo Fan suddenly realized something troublesome. Heidi and Brianca had never bothered differentiating between Izisha and Xinxia, since they were both from the Parthenon Temple. It was all the Parthenon Temple's fault. The Parthenon Temple were the bad guys!

At this rate, considering how stubborn the people of the Alps Institute were, they would never accept any funding from the Parthenon Temple, even if it meant closing orphanages!

Mo Fan was thinking of building a bridge between them, but was already getting a huge headache from it.

”Let's just eat. Why do we have to talk about something so complicated while we are having dinner?” Zhao Manyan interrupted with a sigh.

Mo Fan rubbed his temples. It seemed it was unwise for him to introduce Xinxia to them soon… He sighed. Why did women have to be so complicated? Couldn't they just sit down and gossip or discuss cosmetics peacefully? Why did they have to fight for power until their heads bled!?
