For the Doctor, he didn't want to bring her along for the upcoming mission because it would be difficult to guarantee that she would follow his plan. If she suddenly got an idea, he might not only have to clean up her ss but also face additional battles.
But to his surprise, Miss Chen agreed very straightforwardly, which left the Doctor conflicted.
Because he knew that even if things were agreed upon now, once on the battlefield, he would inevitably be unable to control her actions.
For a chess player, an uncontrollable piece is more terrifying than a powerful opponent, because she can easily disrupt his deploynt.
However, since he had already said it, he couldn't go back on his word and could only reluctantly agree.
But he also noticed the actions of Miss Chen's adjutant earlier, and thought that the other party would surely report to the higher-ups. If he stalled a bit, soone might co to take her away.
Thinking of this, the Doctor made a decision internally.
"We've been fighting for a long ti today. Everyone, let's rest and eat. Ace, take people to organize the vehicles. We'll depart in two hours."
Although Miss Chen wanted to fly to Chernobog to find Talulah, she also knew that Rhodes Island, she, and the Lungn Guard Departnt / Guard Departnt had been busy all day and needed so ti to rest and adjust their status. Otherwise, if they encountered Reunion Movent in the wilderness without being properly rested, they might suffer unnecessary losses.
So she just sat to the side, closed her eyes, and entered a light sleep to replenish the energy consud by a busy day.
At this mont, Wei Yenwu / Wei Yanwu also received the ssage from Miss Chen's adjutant.
Upon hearing the enemy leader's na, he was also stunned. After learning that Miss Chen was going to find the other party, he imdiately grabbed his weapon, preparing to go find Talulah first.
It was his fault that Talulah was captured by Kashchey. Although he had heard rumors that Talulah had killed Kashchey, it currently seed that Kashchey was the mastermind behind Reunion Movent. He planned to personally go settle this ill-fated connection with the other party.
But just as he stepped out, he saw Fumizuki / Wen Yue standing there. Clenching the weapon in his hand, he silently walked past her without speaking.
"Have you made up your mind?"
"The mont she was taken away, I had already made my decision..."
Wei Yenwu / Wei Yanwu dared not look at his wife.
"Cough, cough!" Just as Wei Yenwu / Wei Yanwu was about to continue, an old acquaintance blocked his path.
"Do you want to stop too, Lin Gerei...?" The blade in Wei Yenwu / Wei Yanwu's hand slowly left its sheath.
"You, your temper is just like that of the girl Chen," Rat King shook his head upon seeing Wei Yenwu / Wei Yanwu's action.
"You said you've made up your mind, but has Lungn made its decision? You, a dignified Governor, not staying in Lungn but running off to Ursus, what would the one sitting in the hall think? Whether you can return or not, Lungn's current status, which you've worked so hard for years to achieve, would be completely gone.
Furthermore, if you don't return, it would be a bit better. Not only would that person be able to peacefully reclaim Lungn, but there would also be an excuse to make demands on Ursus.
But what if you do return?
Go to the capital with the people from Dali Temple and spend the rest of your life locked up in so yan?"
Lungn not only held Wei Yenwu / Wei Yanwu's efforts but was also the place Lin Gerei had managed for most of his life.
Moreover, for this place, he had sacrificed the life of his good friend and brother-in-law, Edward Artorias, and his sister's entire life. So Wei Yenwu / Wei Yanwu didn't just live for himself; he carried the burdens of countless people.
After being pointed out by Lin Gerei, he couldn't help but feel a bit deflated.
"Let the youngsters handle the youngsters' affairs. Why are you old folks getting involved?" Seeing Wei Yenwu / Wei Yanwu relax, Lin Gerei knew his persuasion was a great success. Wei Yenwu / Wei Yanwu would no longer choose to leave here.
"I'm not worried about Miss Chen's strength, but that old man Kashchey is skilled in sches and tricks. Miss Chen is too naive; she won't be able to handle Kashchey."
Compared to Talulah, Wei Yenwu / Wei Yanwu was more worried about Kashchey, who was hidden behind her.
He understood how troubleso this person was at the cost of his sister's tragic life, his brother-in-law's early death, and his own and his niece's separation.
"Isn't there still Rhodes Island! I heard that the Doctor accurately predicted the enemy's plan and countered it. That's sothing you haven't achieved in decades," Fumizuki / Wen Yue gently advised from the side.
"But how can I feel at ease letting Miss Chen face Kashchey alone...?" Wei Yenwu / Wei Yanwu was still uneasy about Miss Chen going to Chernobog by herself.
"How about this: I'll have Shirayuki follow Rhodes Island and them, and you can send a team of Black蓑 to hide nearby. If Miss Chen falls into danger, it wouldn't be too late for them to act..." Knowing that Wei Yenwu / Wei Yanwu was still troubled by the matter of Edward and his sister, Fumizuki / Wen Yue decisively proposed a plan.
"Alright! Fumizuki / Wen Yue, you arrange it! I'll rest for a bit!" Wei Yenwu / Wei Yanwu pinched his temples and walked into the house.
Only when she saw that he indeed had no intention of leaving Lungn did Fumizuki / Wen Yue breathe a sigh of relief and thanked Rat King, who was not far away.
"This ti, thanks to Uncle Lin for letting bygones be bygones. Otherwise, if the head of the family really left Lungn, I would truly have no way to stop him..."
Rat King nodded slightly, then retreated towards the slums. "Oh dear! My old bones really can't walk much anymore. Tell your husband to calm down more and not just pull out his knife at every turn. This old man can't stand being scared.
If you really scare , I'll have Yuxia move to this courtyard, and I'll watch him every day, just to infuriate that old scoundrel."
Under Fumizuki / Wen Yue's gaze, Lin Gerei got into the car and left. Only then did she turn and enter the house.
After resting, the Rhodes Island party inford Lungn and prepared to leave for their next destination.
When they arrived at the passage connecting Lungn to the outside world, they saw two people standing there.
"Hoshiguma, why are you here? And Shirayuki? I must go to Chernobog. Don't tell , even if Wei Yenwu / Wei Yanwu himself ca, he couldn't stop . I said it."
Miss Chen first greeted Hoshiguma, then looked at Shirayuki warily, because she knew that the latter was Fumizuki / Wen Yue's personal bodyguard. Her presence here must have been at Fumizuki / Wen Yue's instruction, and Fumizuki / Wen Yue suddenly sending soone when she was about to leave—Miss Chen imdiately "guessed" what she wanted to do.
"No need to be so tense, Miss Chen. The Princess sent here not to stop you from going to Chernobog, nor to bring you back. It's just that Governor Wei is uneasy about you going alone, so he arranged for to accompany and protect you. Governor Wei said that if you don't agree to this condition, then you are absolutely not allowed to leave Lungn..."
