Chapter 491: Judas's Disappearance
Chapter 491: Judas's Disappearance
The drinks that Yalinxiu brought seemed to have a calming effect.
Loretta's attitude softened, and Femeiou would not refute so angrily, but Altair himself was easily swayed.
Loretta is a very awkward female eagle. She knew how to control her desires at a very young age. She was able to find a suitable position to survive in multiple predicaments. She was undoubtedly smart. But because of her age, the education she received made her resistance look like self-destruction.
Behind Loretta's extreme strength is her inferiority complex. She denies her desires and avoids showing weakness because she really opens her heart.
She was looking forward to having friends. This expectation was clearly noticed by Musa, so Musa came up with the idea of bringing Yalinxiu to Lanier.
Loretta knew that Yalinxiu would tolerate her. Yalinxiu's existence was like the sky. Yalinxiu knew all her dark and awkward thoughts. Even if her attitude was bad, Yalinxiu could understand her and touch her true heart.
So she liked Yalinxiu. She felt that Yalinxiu was a very good friend of hers, or rather, she wanted to be Yalinxiu's best friend.
She even felt that as long as she had Yalinxiu, it was enough. She didn't need to learn how to express herself correctly, and she didn't need to force herself to change. Anyway, Yalinxiu was very smart, had a good personality, and was tolerant enough.
But Yalinxiu said to her firmly, "This is not okay," "I can't be your only friend."
Why not?
Loretta was angry and even felt betrayed. She felt stupid for treating the other person as her best friend when the other person didn't care about her.
In fact, she also understood that this was a form of escape. She had no idea how to find true friends on her own. She subconsciously ignored the fact that Yalinxiu was not a female eagle, even for a month, she wanted to escape from reality, she wanted to have new experiences with this loyal ally.
But Yalinxiu made her face reality.
Just like before. When she said those words to Femeiou, she vaguely realized that something was wrong. It's not that she couldn't see Femeiou's hurt expression, but the words had already been spoken, just like eating bread and not being able to spit it out, she couldn't take it back.
She had preconceived what a spoiled child Femmeo was, but in every argument, she was getting to know Femmeo in a new way.
What made her feel very annoyed was that Femeiou really cared about her and Lanier's female eagle. Femeiou just lacked experience, but she was indeed serious.
She was unwilling to bow her head first. What she said was not wrong.
It’s just that Yalinxiu happened to bring the drinks.
She softened her attitude and stopped insisting on the original topic.
Femeiou stopped arguing with her.
The atmosphere became quiet, with only the sound of drinking drinks.
Loretta finished her drink first. She stood up and asked Femeiou and Altair if they wanted to visit the manor. Her tone was still not very good, but this was the best Loretta could do.
Femeiou and Altair did not refuse.
Loretta is not a competent tour guide. She doesn't know the differences between here and foreign countries. Her understanding of fun is naturally different from that of foreign kids.
While Femeiou and Altair are studying the new plant, Loretta approaches Arlinhu.
"Why didn't you say anything when we were arguing?"
"I was looking for the right moment. But you guys were arguing too seriously."
"…You can end this fight."
"but I do not have."
"Yes, you didn't. Why? Did you want to see me make a fool of myself? What was your reason for bringing Femeiou and Altair to Lanier?"
"Loretta, my promise to you is not consolation. No matter what the outcome of Lanier is after this month, I hope you can have the ability to protect yourself.
I hope you can be kind to yourself. Have the ability to find friends, the ability to get along well with friends, the courage to be rejected and the confidence to start over. "
Yalinxiu's eyes were bright.
Loretta felt that she was trusted, but she snorted and turned her head away.
"Being your friend is so troublesome. You just need to make me happy, so why are you so strict? I'm not your student."
"Yes. But I hope my friends can have a wonderful future."
Arlin smiled. It took Loretta's hand.
"Loretta, I have learned a lot from you. You are my teacher."
Loretta gently shook her hand that was held by Yalinxiu. She seemed to still be disgusted by this touch, but she really didn't use much force.
"Really."
Loretta said, her lips curling up slightly.
"I can't do anything about you. You are my friend after all."
……
"There's really no other way."
When Nolvia brought Dooku and Ellit to Franche's lord's mansion, she heard Franche's voice outside the door.
Norvia knocked on the door, but it was Nedoan who opened it.
Niedoan was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Franche.
"Why didn't you tell me they were coming?"
Franche sighed and looked apologetic.
"I thought you knew."
"You take it for granted. I've been in Vince City half this week, and I don't even know if Totag is hanging now."
"No, he's still alive."
Franche answered, then smiled at Norvia and the others.
"Hello, welcome to France again. This is Nedoan, I think you should be familiar with her.
Mr. Ellit, I have prepared your reward. Please go to the next door to receive your prize. I think you can't carry it by yourself, so you can go with Mr. Nifas. "
"Are you sure it's all kinds of sugar from Franceli?"
"Of course. You see, I am the Lord of France."
Elliott nodded, and he took Dooku with him to claim the prize he deserved.
Nolvia stayed where she was and asked Franche why he wanted to send Ellit and Dooku away.
"Sorry. This is my occupational disease. I don't trust all males... I always exclude them when it comes to missions that cannot go wrong."
Franche said this with a smile on her face. She stood up and walked to Niedoan with a natural posture.
"Ms. Laili, Niedoan and I are discussing how Ms. Judas can disappear..."
"disappear?"
Norvia noticed the word Franche used. It was not "death" but "disappearance".
Niedoan turned his head and distanced himself from Franche.
"Yes, disappear. Judas is the nightmare of Vince City. As long as she lives, the eagles of Vince City will be terrified. She is very valuable, but she must die in Vince City.
Vince City is a tough nut to crack. Vince's management wants Judas dead. Agbe has some say, but she can't communicate. I haven't been able to convince Agbe during the days I was in Vince.
Things were at a stalemate, and French came up with a bad idea. She said to have a wealthy foreign businessman from Vince propose to Vince's manager to buy Judas' life with money. "
"Nedoan, there is no other way, right? My idea is realistic and will definitely work.
In Lanier, letting a female eagle who has the ability to resist become a lover who is not in the spotlight is more insulting than letting her die. Vince's management will agree. I have also found a candidate for the rich businessman. I will give him double the price. The rich businessman is only interested in profit, and he will not refuse this business. "
Franche spoke slowly, and by the end, he had already started signing checks.
Niedoan folded his arms and looked at Franche.
"Does Judas agree? Have you met her? She would rather die as a nightmare to Vince City."
"Nedo, being alive is the most important thing. A beautiful female eagle like Judas can bring more surprises if she is alive. Judas has disappeared, but there will be another Judas. Judas is endless. As long as Judas is alive, she can appear again and again.
She is a smart female eagle, she knows what to choose. Even if she chooses to die, her death will be portrayed as a kind of surrender.
Niedoan, in Lanier, it takes luck for such a female eagle to appear. One less eagle dies. I don't want a tragic victory. I want to build a new Lanier. I need capable and determined female eagles. I need such subordinates. "
French spoke calmly, like a leader preparing to build her future empire.
Niedoan looked at Franche with some surprise, and after a while, she asked Franche.
"Can that rich businessman be trusted? What if he holds Judas hostage?"
Franche paused, she looked at the photo frame on the table, then shifted her gaze to Niedoan's face.
"I am the lord... I don't need to trust him. Niedoan, please think of me as a little more despicable. Please treat me as your most difficult opponent, just like before."
Nedo's brown eyes shone brightly in the sunlight. She was very short and looked unintimidating.
But her eyes were so cold. It was as if she had waved away the fierce autumn seaside wind.
She glanced at Norvia, then turned to Franche.
“I’m very tolerant of the people I work with.”
People who have a tacit understanding always use simple words to express multiple meanings when speaking to each other. Because they know that the other party will understand, there is no need to elaborate.
Franche's smile deepened as she placed the signed check in a folder and handed the new document to Nedoan.
Norvia understood Franche's plan and Nedoan's attitude, but she didn't quite understand her role here.
"Do you need me to go Vince?"
"No. You stay in France. I know your abilities, and I have other things to do, so I will leave some of my work to you.
Your teammates are scattered in Lanier, right? Then some of the liaison and gathering work between organizations will be handed over to you. The two teammates you brought with you, their tasks are handed over to you, you know them well. Time is running out. "
As Niedoan said this, he straightened the photo frame that had been placed on Franche's desk.
Franche subconsciously wanted to stop him, but soon she withdrew her hand. Under Nedoan's thoughtful gaze, Franche continued to speak after Nedoan's words.
"Mr. Elliott doesn't need to be assigned any more tasks. He already has other things to do. I will talk to him after this -
Ms. Riley, if you were a female eagle, I would not let you leave Lanier. You, your teammates, and your teachers are all very capable. Thank you for joining us, and I believe in you. I look forward to the future we will create together. "
French promised.
"Of course, this kind of thanks is too meager. Miss Laili, if we can welcome a new sun, I will prepare a generous reward for you, including the share for Nedo Eucalyptus.
Thank you again, Miss Riley."
……
"Frenche's thanks are hypocritical. You think so, too."
Nedoan walked in front of Norvia, and she took Norvia to her place to hand over the work. After they walked out of the lord's mansion, they were silent all the way. Finally, Nedoan spoke first, but her words were directed at Franche.
Nolvia was stunned for a moment, then asked back.
"Why? I think Lord French's gratitude is sincere."
"Because of the reward she promised? Nolvaya Leli, didn't you notice? What she showed was all fake. She had no basic trust in her partners. Even if I helped her straighten the picture frame, she would subconsciously stop me."
Niedoan analyzed it, but Norvia knew whose photo was in the frame.
She did not answer immediately, but sent a message to French to ask. Her new communicator could be used normally in Lanier.
French responded quickly.
Franche asks Norvia to tell Nedo the truth.
【Franche: It's not a secret. I hope she knows. I'm looking forward to her expression.】
Norvia hesitated for a moment, then she told Nedoan about the photo.
Niedoan, who was analyzing Franche in detail just now, was stunned. Then, Niedoan spoke incomprehensibly.
"She regards me as an imaginary enemy? If she is ill, she should get treatment as soon as possible and not hinder our cooperation. All Lanier's female eagles are like this, and they all have some quirks."
Niedoan tucked her hair behind her ears in annoyance.
"I shouldn't have cooperated with her. If Totag hadn't gone to Franche without permission, I wouldn't have been dragged into this. I shouldn't have looked for a man in the first place. There were so many analysts, but I chose Totag - but he didn't want money and was fragile, so he was easy to manipulate."
Complaining won’t change the status quo. Nieduoan understood this, so she quickly stopped complaining and spoke rationally.
"Judus is going to disappear, but Judus may not choose to become Jenny. Totag will definitely collapse by then. If he collapses, I will send him out of Lanier and find a new analyst.
Do you have any recommendations? Good value for money. "
Nolvia thought about it, then shook her head.
“I don’t know many people in Mehndi.”
"Is this true? Joshua didn't say that. Never mind, let's talk about it later. If Judas can coax Totag, then I won't have to look for him anymore."
When Nedoan mentioned Judas, her tone became much more relaxed. She admired Judas as much as she admired Franche.
It's just that she could readily admit the former, but she hated the latter so much that it seemed like she was expelling the imperfections in herself.
It is not easy to project one's dissatisfaction onto others. But Niederan can do it. She hates Franche.
...because they are so alike.
