Twin Cities: I am the man of many myths

Chapter 145 On a sunny day, he took her away

Camille brought back the news six days after the incident in the Valduz Mountains. She was in the parliament building in Piltover, wearing the uniform of a spy of the House of Ferros.

On the white long shirt, two black suspenders connected to the trousers. From the appearance, this master was really dashing and neat. He was standing upright in front of the long table and talking about the information he had gathered from the Philos family.

"To the outside world, General Linkton of Noxus directly announced that the legion had disappeared. The one who attacked Piltover this time was Viscount Kirill, and his disappearance with the legion was also defined by the Noxians as a natural disaster.

Of course, it is impossible for Linkerton to clear himself of the problem by just using this method. Everyone can see that there is something fishy going on, but Noxus is in trouble now, and Linkerton holds the military power, so no one wants to provoke him at this time."

"As for Darkwill, he is still searching for immortality and has gone completely mad."

"So for now, we can try to demonstrate our military strength and proactively let the Noxian warlords know that the two cities have such powerful weapons, so that they will be cautious. After all, if the two cities were a tough nut to crack, they would no longer be eyeing us covetously. What the Noxian warlords want now is to accumulate their own strength in a stable manner."

Camille said solemnly.

Noxus is now a big sieve, all kinds of information are leaking out, and the spies of the Philos family can get unimaginable intelligence without even risking their lives.

Let’s not talk about the authenticity for now. After all, when it comes to intelligence, it’s better to believe it than not to believe it. No spy from any country dares to say that his or her intelligence is completely correct.

But Camille was sure of the authenticity of this information. It was true, because when a country is corrupt, it starts to rot from top to bottom, then the country is doomed.

No one can save Noxus now. Darkwill has made the once united Noxus become divided. Once he dies... No, even without his death, Noxus will already have many warlords and wars will break out everywhere.

"Should we join in the fun?" Saro was a little inflated, and his words were shocking when he opened his mouth.

Hoskar, who was sitting next to him, couldn't help but slap him on the back and shouted, "Join in the fun? What do you want to join in?"

"Are you going to attack Noxus?"

"Both Piltover and Zaun are peace-loving city-states. We will never do such a thing. As for attacking Noxus, let's not talk about whether we win or lose. The problem is that once we really attack Noxus, what will happen to our friendly and peaceful labels in the eyes of other city-states?"

Saro rubbed his back and said nothing more.

"What Hoskar said is right. After all, we are all trading city-states. We need to pay attention to our external image. A city-state that invades other countries will never be accepted by other countries no matter how many reasons it has for launching a war of aggression."

"As for Camille's suggestion of a show of force to make the Noxians afraid to act rashly, Senator Hilco, what do you think of us doing a military exercise?"

When Hilco heard Mel's question, he tapped the table with his index finger and nodded, saying, "Okay, let's use the high mobility of the Hextech airship and choose three days to bomb the border of Noxus in turns and let them see the weapons of the Twin Cities."

"Come to think of it, we should have let some Noxians escape and let them take the news back. That way, we wouldn't have to worry about this now."

Marcos, who was standing aside, felt a little embarrassed when he heard what Hilco said. Now thinking about it, it was he who was shouting loudly for pursuit and issued various orders to kill.

"Then it's decided. The Philos family will provide the location and choose a time, and Marcos will lead the team." Mel smiled and nodded, finalizing the matter.

Marcos immediately stood up straight, saluted and said, "Yes!"

Li Ke looked at it and saw that the matter seemed to have been resolved, so he stretched out his hands and tapped the table, smiling and said, "Then, is there anything else?"

"Ah."

As soon as Mel's voice fell, Li Ke stood up from his chair and ran out of the meeting room.

"Is Congressman Li Ke very busy lately?" Mel's mouth twitched. She was about to adjourn the meeting, but Li Ke had already run away.

Jace sat next to Mel and said, "Not only him, Jinx has been busy lately too. She hasn't been to the weapon workshop for a long time."

As he spoke, Jace looked at Hilco and asked curiously, "Hilco, do you know what they are busy with recently?"

Hilco shook his head. He really didn't know.

I heard from the law enforcement officer that Li Ke goes shopping with Jinx every day and buys a lot of things, but is he busy?
Hilco isn’t so sure.

"Okay, everyone, let's adjourn this meeting."

As Hilco's voice fell, the councilors of the two cities stood up.

Zuan,

Li Ke ran all the way, passing through the high-rise buildings of Piltover, and jumped directly to Zaun in the dance corridor. He flexibly used the alchemical pipe to run above Zaun and returned to Zaun at an extremely fast speed.

"Janna, Jinx and I are planning to go out soon. You will be responsible for passing the message to me and Hilco and the others, okay?" Li Ke returned to the Hope Community after falling from a pipe on the sewer.

At the same time, he spoke to the bluebird on his shoulder.

"I understand." Janna nodded.

With the increase of the power of faith, Janna's strength has revived, and now she can do many things. When facing a darkin like Stellatu, although she still can't defeat him, at least Janna can resist for a while.

Moreover, she can indeed deliver messages. There is her mark on Li Ke's body. After activation, the wind will convey Li Ke's words to Janna.

In this way, as long as Li Ke is in Runeterra, Janna can hear Li Ke's voice.

Hmm. After being the scapegoat, Janna has now become the mouthpiece?
Li Ke nodded with a smile, then he went to find Singed and told him everything.

"Doctor, I will go to Ionia to get the news first. Don't worry. Janna will tell you the first time there is news. Then you can bring Orianna and a few law enforcement officers to Ionia on the Hextech airship. I will prepare in advance and wait for you here."

Singed readily agreed.

He can wait for three months.

After talking to Singed, Li Ke ran back home.

"Jinx!"

"Jinx!"

Li Ke shouted loudly outside the door.

"What's the matter?!" A girl's voice came from inside the house, and then a head wearing a hat poked out from the window. The cat looked sneaky and very cute.

"Let's go, let's set off!" Li Ke said with a smile.

“Let’s go?” The little face at the window was stunned for a moment, then turned into a big smile. Jinx opened her mouth slightly and nodded excitedly: “Coming, right here!”

As he spoke, the little head disappeared. Li Ke could hear some noise inside the house. It was the sound of Jinx packing her things.

So, Li Ke went into the house and packed his luggage with Jinx.

"Didn't you say you would stay in Zaun for a while to observe? How come it happened so soon?"

"Camille said it's okay. Noxus is in chaos right now. They don't have the time to deal with us."

"Okay! By the way, Li Ke, should we talk to Hilco and Vander?"

"Forget it. They will definitely try to persuade me to leave Zaun after they find out. They don't want me to take you away from Zaun. Well, just leave a note. You write it now and I'll put it on Hilco's desk later."

"Okay, then I'll write one for Wei too!" As Jinx said this, she was stuffing pairs of socks into her backpack, some of hers and some of Li Ke's.

Then she picked up a pen and started writing and drawing on the table.

From time to time, a figure left the house and walked towards the location of Fugen's Tavern.

Not long after, the figure returned to the front of the house.

He took the bag from the blue-haired ponytail girl who was carrying an oversized backpack, and then took the hat she handed to him. After putting them on, the two guys avoided the sight of Zaun's law enforcement officers and rushed towards the Zaun dock.

Hilco returned to the Fugen Tavern in the afternoon. There was not much work to do today, so he chose to rest early.

The Noxian issues that troubled the Twin Cities were neither big nor small, but as it stands now, they were not a problem.

After entering the room, Hilco first took off his collar and hung it on the hanger. Then, he pulled the buttons of his clothes, loosened his clothes, lay down on the chair, and took a bottle of wine from the drawer of the table. He was going to have a couple of drinks first.

Vandel went back after coming down from Piltover. He had as much to do recently as Hilco. Vandel was particularly concerned about the Zaun army. How could it be that the soldiers led by a father were not as good as those led by his daughter?
It's impossible for Vandel not to be envious of Wei showing off his power and issuing orders every day. But there really is no population in Zaun for Vandel to recruit soldiers and organize an army.

Sevika was not in Fulgrim's Tavern today. When she left Piltover, she took a group of people to check the goods at the Piltover dock, which was the same dock shared by Zaun and Piltover.

Stretching his body, Hilco picked up the wine glass, took a sip, and narrowed his eyes slightly.

how to say
It feels really good.

It seemed that since meeting Li Ke, Hilco had no longer worried about the future of Zaun. Although that guy was just a nominal Lord of Zaun and was not responsible for anything, everything was getting better.

Putting down the wine glass, Hilco tapped the table with his fingers out of habit, but he suddenly noticed that there was an extra piece of paper in the compartment where he kept his documents?

The note was covered by the document, with only a corner showing. However, the hint of blue on it was very eye-catching. Hilco immediately sat up straight, picked up the document that was covering the note, and then he reached out and picked up the note.

Just a glance, his eyes were full of tenderness.

It was a simple smiley face drawn in blue crayon.

It's Jinx's style.

"Why are you writing to me for no reason?" Hilco muttered, turned over the envelope, and after just one look, the expression on his face became solemn.

"Li, Ke!" The sound came from the throat, squeezed out from the teeth.

Anger flashed in Hilco's eyes, and he threw the note on the table. He quickly stood up, the dizziness from having a few drinks in a good mood gone, and he walked out the door in two or three steps.

"Everyone! Find Jinx and Li Ke for me!"

Hilco spoke loudly to the members downstairs in the Fugen Tavern.

Among these people, there were law enforcement officers from the sewers and civil servants from Zaun. In short, they were Hilko's former subordinates. When Hilko entered Zaun's parliament, they naturally followed him into Zaun as well.

Now, after hearing Hilco's voice, they were confused, but they all reacted quickly.

"Yes!"

"What's going on? Why are you suddenly asking us to find Miss Jinx and Councilman Li Ke?"

"Don't ask! Hurry up and act. Can't you see that the boss's face is stinking?"

Hilco followed the crowd and said, "Send some people to the Hextech airship in Piltover, and the rest to the dock!"

Giving the order quickly, Hilco walked out of the door of the Fugen Tavern.

Li Ke, fuck you!
If you want to do this, you should at least tell me!
On the second floor of Fugen Tavern, in Hilco's office, on the table, a piece of paper was slapped on a pile of documents. On the top of the paper was a row of crooked words - Li Ke and I are going out for a trip, hehe~~~
Wei soon learned about the dispatch of the sewer law enforcement officers and the fact that Hilco was running to the dock. As the director of the Sewer Law Enforcement Bureau, Wei had great power, so of course she would be the first to know about such things.

Upon hearing the news, Vandel rushed to Hilco and Wei as soon as possible.

"Li Ke ran away with Jinx?"

The first words that Fandel said when he appeared almost made Hilco laugh out of anger.

"They didn't run away. Zaun is their home. How could they run away from home?" Hilco looked at Vander unhappily and said in a deep voice, "It was Li Ke who took Jinx out. Jinx said she wanted to travel."

"Travel?" Vander was stunned.

Wei muttered, "She was just out for fun, is it necessary to do this? She's already that old, and with Li Ke following her, how could she get lost?"

Hearing Wei's mumbling, Fandel said angrily: "She can go out to play, but she has to tell us! How long will she be gone, when will she be back, does she have money, where is she going, how can she leave without saying anything?"

Hearing Fandel's nagging, Wei touched her ears and said impatiently: "It's because you always nag like this that Li Ke took her and ran away!"

"If you two knew this, it would be strange if Jinx could get out!"

"Daughter slaves, two daughter slaves at that!" Wei said angrily, "And you only talked about Jinx and thought about when she would come back. Didn't you think about when Li Ke would come back?"

Wei thinks this doesn’t make sense!
The Lord of Zaun has all run away!
Is Li Ke really the Lord of Zaun?

As a result, Vandel and Hilco said at the same time: "Who's going to take care of him?"

Wei was stunned for a moment, then laughed angrily.

At 4:13 p.m., a group of law enforcement officers found Hilco.

"Councilman Hilco, according to information provided by residents, people who look like Jinx and Councilman Li Ke appeared on the dock."

"Go!" Vander said immediately.

At 4:25, Hilco rode on Fandel and Wei rode on the Hexboard, and they reached the dock in Zaun from the Hope Community in just ten minutes.

Between the two narrow and closed gorges, ships are heading from Zaun to the sea.

When Hilco and others arrived, there was a small boat there. It looked like a small fishing boat, but don't be fooled by its small size. It was powered by Hextech and micro-light energy, and the small fishing boat had just left the dock.

"Vandel, look, isn't that Jinx?"

Hilco pointed at the small fishing boat and asked Fandel.

Vander squinted his eyes. His eyesight was better than Hilco's. He saw a girl in a hat giggling and dancing on the bow with her arms wide open, waving at Zaun.

She is thin but well-proportioned, especially her legs are particularly long. She is also wearing a black denim jacket and shorts. This look and temperament are indeed Jinx!

Behind the girl was a young man who was holding her waist with one hand to prevent her from falling off the boat, and waving at the people on the shore with the other hand.

The boat began to speed up, and the sea breeze blew away the two people's hats, revealing beautiful blue hair and mysterious black hair.

The sun shone on the sea and she smiled happily.

"Silco, Fandel! I'm going out to play!"

"Don't come to us!"

The girl shouted loudly.

When Vander heard the sound, he took two steps back, ready to jump directly onto the boat, or swim over if that didn't work!

But as soon as he stepped back, Hilco suddenly reached out and grabbed the hair on his face, pulling it hard.

"Hilco, what are you doing?!" Vander felt pain and asked Hilco in confusion.

"Forget it, Fandel," Hilco said. "If she wants to go out and play, let her go out and play. Anyway, everything is fine in Zaun now. It doesn't matter whether Li Ke is here or not."

"She was laughing so happily. In the past, she often asked me if she could go to sea with Sevica or go somewhere else, but I always stopped her and wouldn't let her leave me."

"She looks crazy, but she's actually weak and timid. Without my permission and someone familiar to accompany her, she doesn't dare to leave Zaun alone."

"So even though she wanted to go out, she still stayed by my side obediently, but... that was in the past."

"This bastard Li Ke gave her courage and hope, and made her no longer afraid of loneliness and strangers."

"My daughter has grown up. It's time for her to have her own world."

As Hilco spoke, he began to laugh. Then, he loosened his hands that were holding Vander's hair, raised his hands, and waved to the boat that had sailed far away.

On a sunny day in Zuan,
He took her out of Zaun.

Said to be,

Go see the outside world.
