Natalie's magical growth record

Chapter 204 Warnings and arrangements before the undercurrent surges

"What a risk. Fortunately, Miss Natalie didn't choose another place in the end, otherwise our plan might not be implemented...!"

After coming out of Arinor's house, recalling the experience of choosing a place for a school trip not long ago, Water Begonia Avis couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief.

Of course, it was impossible for him to directly ask Alina why she wanted to make other locations equally attractive, so he could only express his dissatisfaction tactfully in this indirect way.

"Yes," Alina agreed, and then slightly curled her lips when the young man relaxed his thoughts, "But isn't the final result perfect?"

Perfect…

Ives pondered this word carefully, and suddenly, the words of the person next to him two days ago about swapping weights echoed in his mind.

So, combining the experiences of the past two days and the word "perfect" at the end, he tentatively asked with half disbelief and half secret fear: "Senior, I would like to ask, may the foreshadowing just now be your plan? One of them?"

"Ah."

Glancing at the young man beside her, Alina responded in a normal tone, and then as if she had anticipated the other person's surprise and confusion, she added calmly and comforted,

"After all, we can't put all our eggs in one basket, can we? Moreover, without you finally perfecting the reasons for the exhibition and academic exchange meeting, I think things would not have ended so successfully."

"Okay, what are your plans next? Is it convenient to inform you in advance?"

With this reassurance, Ives restrained himself from being dissatisfied with the truth being concealed again and settled for the next best thing.

"I've told you in advance."

Sensing the dissatisfaction hidden in the young man's words, Alina once again drew a shallow arc on her lips and returned her gaze meaningfully to give a hint.

"When?"

Avis continued to ask in surprise.

"Yesterday afternoon," Alina gently deepened the curvature of her mouth and added thoughtfully, "I protected Natalie when I was away and helped her when she was in need."

"Senior, isn't it good to do this?"

Instead of directly acceding to the arrangements of the people around him, and not mentioning Natalie again, this time, Ives chose to state his thoughts directly.

"If you have an easier and softer way to connect everything that follows, I would be happy to change the plan!"

After leaving such words in a gentle but unquestionable tone, Alina quickly accelerated her pace with a gloomy expression. Without waiting for the young man to follow, she took out a card from an inconspicuous corner and activated it. Space teleportation magic.

……

"Okay, let's continue with the next plan..."

After the space transfer ended, Alina looked at the blue sky above her head with almost no clouds. At the same time, she put away the sadness she had felt for a moment, and kept walking quickly towards the destination in her mind. Forward.

A few minutes later, inside the mansion where Fire Yugiri now lives...

"Long time no see, Suzuran, are you feeling bad?"

Sensing that the visitor was different from the calm and suppressed expression before, the sage assistant of the West District of Fire, Xiwu of Fire, Cyrus Ernest asked curiously and concernedly.

"That's it."

Seeing that her forcibly suppressed emotions were seen through, Alina simply gave up her disguise and spoke frankly.

"This is really a rare thing."

Cyrus commented calmly but unceremoniously.

"This is not the right way to treat guests, our Lord Yugiri of Fire."

Faced with the irony in the young man's words, whether it was deliberate or unintentional, Alina took out the imitation pocket watch in her hand and tossed it around without much care, pointing out calmly without changing her expression.

"Okay, I take back those presumptuous words and forgive me for being rude just now."

After a brief mental struggle in his mind, Cyrus finally compromised, stood up solemnly, pressed his hand on his chest, and bowed in a standard etiquette that made it impossible to fault.

"So are you still brooding about that incident?" She nodded lightly and accepted the young man's apology, and Alina asked in a confirming tone without fear of offending others.

Slightly tightening his fist, Cyrus suppressed the anger in his heart and remained silent. "I believe you should remember that I apologized at that time," Alina responded with the same determination. After thinking about it, she added, "Besides, I think Lord Osmond doesn't want to see you like you are now."

"Your current state is not suitable for reminiscing about the past," directly pointing out that the other party's mood is not suitable for further conversation. Cyrus slightly relaxed the strength of his fists and reminded with a complicated mood, "I have already given the key to Eileen. Be careful of those two people, the matter with Xila cannot end so easily."

"Thank you."

Looking at the young man sitting in front of the small round table with some surprise, Alina finally expressed more opinions, nodded slightly, picked up her bag, and prepared to leave.

"Wait."

But at this time, Cyrus stopped her again.

"Ok?"

Alina stopped and looked back in confusion.

"Thank you for the Carson matter. If you need my help in the future, you can entrust me with it."

"it is good."

Alina agreed with a smile and continued moving forward.

……

After another space teleportation, Alina came to the South District of the Earth and appeared directly on the top floor of the South Candle Workshop, where the owner of the workshop was located in the reception room.

"Is everything done?"

Looking at the figure that suddenly appeared at the door, Ivan raised his eyes slightly in surprise, and finally continued to mix the potion in his hand without any abnormality.

"Ah."

Alina also replied calmly. After carefully looking around her surroundings and confirming that no one else was present, she took out a bunch of keys from her bag and used [Wind Breath] to throw the keys directly in the direction of the owner.

"Thank you, your debt with me is officially paid off."

Feeling the breeze blowing by his side, Ivan immediately put down the medicinal materials in his hand and raised his hand to catch the flying key.

"What happened to the investigation I entrusted you to investigate before? Is there any progress?"

Without answering this sentence, Alina changed the subject.

"No," Yi Wen shook his head indifferently, and then he was afraid that he would not be able to convince the stubborn woman in front of him, so he added, "I remember I told you that secretly investigating academic organizations that have not caused harm to society is something that is not done in the Southern District of the Earth. It’s forbidden.”

"Okay, then there is no other way. We can only hope for the academic seminars in the next few days."

Spreading her hands helplessly, Alina sighed with regret.

"Actually, there is another way."

Seeing that the woman at the table still had no intention of leaving, Ivan was silent for a while, and seemed to casually mention something while taking the medicine.

"What is it?"

"Look for Blair, he is the committee member in charge of this academic seminar."

Ivan responded calmly, and then went about his own business, regardless of whether the woman he passed by accepted the proposal.

Brother Stone?
  Alas, unexpectedly things came back to him in a roundabout way...

“I hope there will be a chance to cooperate next time!”

When she was about to leave the reception room, Alina casually raised her hand to say goodbye.

"Me too."

Without a trace of hesitation, Ivan responded tacitly, and then closed the door of the reception room in a gust of refreshing wind...
