Zongman: My days as a chaebol in Japan

Li Xuan saw that Asuna had also woken up, smiled, and lowered his head to taste the morning flavor.

The two struggled for a while before, with the help of Gurefia, they tidied each other's clothes and left the room.

Asuna's rosy face makes Erina and the others very envious. The brave ones enjoy the world first, and Asuna is the bravest among their group of good sisters. Every night, the noise of the scorching sun and the breeze in Li Xuan's room is quite loud.

After breakfast, Li Xuan said that he would go to England for a few days with Xiaolan and Sonoko. Xiaolan had already told Asuna and the others that she was going to help her father, Kogoro Mori, solve the witchcraft problem, and they gave their blessings.

...

A private plane with Li Xuan's personal mark took off from the helipad in the backyard and then flew towards the UK.

Clock tower.

In the central main tower, the twelve monarchs and the dean of the clock tower were discussing in a meeting room.

The monarch of the noble national faction of the All-Basic Sciences, MacDaniel Tranberio Elrod, spoke with magic, which stopped the monarchs who were still arguing.

"Everyone, the failure of the Holy Grail Game and the death of Kenneth, the genius magician, on that small island in the Far East have made our Clock Tower lose face in front of the Xia family and the Odin family. We need to think of a way to get another chance to be a stepping stone. At our level, ascetic training is of little use anymore," said McDaniel Tramberio Elrod with wisdom in his eyes.

"Lord Elrod, to put it simply, since that loser Kenneth is dead, he is not worthy of the title of genius magician. He used the Phoenix Feather but still couldn't win and was killed. Lord Ulysses, I heard that your daughter is going to marry him, right? Hahaha", the one who spoke with disdain and sarcasm was Gaius Ling, the monarch of the Animal Department.

"You!" The one being mocked was Rufreus Nazire Ulyphis, the monarch of the third department, the Spirit Summoning Department. Solaw, who was rescued by Toosaka Rin and the others, was his second daughter.

"It would have been fine if this loser Kenneth didn't win in the end, but he actually died. He couldn't even complete the most basic task of killing that despicable half-baked magician Emiya Kiritsugu. He's simply a joke, don't you think, Lord Measstia?" Gaius Ling continued to mock, but this time the target of his mockery turned to the Lord of the Fourth Mineral Department, Measstia. According to the original plan, Kenneth would take over the position of Lord of the Mineral Department after he returned from Sakura, but unfortunately, Kenneth died, and Measstia took his place.

"Hmph." Meastia did not respond, but just glanced at Gaius Ling calmly.

"Okay, now is not the time to argue. Ms. Loreleiah told me today that the young master of the Xia family will come to the Clock Tower and will land at the Clock Tower. This is a very rare opportunity. The future of the Clock Tower is in the hands of you monarchs. I hope you can think of a good way. Recently, the white wizard in Hogwarts told me that the remnants of Grindelwald seem to have started to move again. I will go and investigate. The matter of the young master of the Xia family will be left to you monarchs." Although the dean of the Clock Tower had a calm look in his eyes, it contained a power that the twelve monarchs who were at least at the peak of the True Person Realm could not ignore.

"Yes, Your Excellency," the twelve monarchs stopped talking and responded with respect.

The dean of the clock tower is very strong. He has magic that makes people despair at first sight and is as surging as the sea. The twelve monarchs have rotated for many generations, but the dean of the clock tower has never been replaced. According to his own introduction, he has lived for more than two thousand years and founded the clock tower.

No one dared to be disrespectful in front of this old monster who had lived for at least two thousand years.

The dean of the clock tower saw the looks of the twelve monarchs and nodded, "Okay, I see your sincerity, so I leave it to you. I hope to hear Ms. Lorelea tell me good news when I come back."

As soon as he finished speaking, the dean of the clock tower turned into several flames and disappeared in the conference hall.

Loreleija spoke at this time, "My Lords, Young Master Li Xuan will land at the Clock Tower in an hour. Please tell us your suggestions."

When the twelve monarchs heard what Lorelia said, they all scratched their heads and began to think hard. Gaius Ling, the monarch of the Animal Department, spoke first, "Why don't I find a magical creature of XXXXX level here in the Animal Department and give it to Young Master Li Xuan, and then let the magical creature master Newt take Young Master Li Xuan to visit the magical creature breeding in the Animal Department."

As soon as Gaius Ling made the proposal, Loreleiia and the remaining monarchs began to think about it, but at this time Measstia spoke directly, "You let the person with the most precious identity in the world to visit those species that emit unpleasant odors up close? Lord Gaius Ling, I have to wonder if you want the Clock Tower to be put on the Xia family's blacklist."

When Gaius Ling heard the person he had just mocked actually retorted, he immediately wanted to refute, but then he thought, indeed, although magical creatures are very magical, most of them have a weird taste.

"Also, Lord Gaius Ling, I have to remind you that in Daxia, there are the four divine beasts. I don't know if your biology department has such magical creatures," Measstia continued, and Gaius Ling stopped talking.

The twelve monarchs had been invited to visit the ancient Daxia, where they had witnessed the magical creatures that could mesmerize people at first sight, make them sigh at the love of heaven and earth, and were majestic and domineering. His biological farm did not have these species, but recently he heard from Newt that he seemed to have found a kind of auspicious beast called Qilin in Daxia.

Afterwards, each monarch began to put forward his own suggestions, such as introducing the stars, seeing the spirit prison, and exhibiting cursed objects.

Chapter 421 Absolute Nobility

Loreleiya rubbed her temples with a headache. In Da Xia, there are the Atlas of the Zhoutian Stars, the Three Realms of Heaven, Earth and Man, the I Ching, and the Atlas of Mountains, Seas and All Things. As the young master of the Xia family, how could Li Xuan not have learned these? He only learned them superficially from the Clock Tower. It was a sign of good upbringing that Li Xuan didn't think that the Clock Tower was humiliating him at first glance.

Although Loreleija was speechless at the proposals of these monarchs, she still explained them one by one with great aristocratic manners and dispelled their proposals.

"Well, since none of you monarchs have any good ideas for the time being and time is running out, I will go and entertain Young Master Li Xuan first. If you monarchs have any good suggestions, you can send them to my office and I will review them carefully." Loreleija looked at the time, stood up and talked about the plan with the twelve monarchs.

"By the way, Lord Animusphia, please let my daughter accompany me. She has a good relationship with Young Master Li Xuan and can help," Loreleiah said to Marisbilly Animusphia, the monarch of the Eighth Department of Astronomy.

When Marisbili Animusphia heard what Loreleia said, a look of joy immediately appeared on his face, and he quickly ordered his daughter Olga Marie behind him, "Go, obey Ms. Loreleia's orders and serve Master Li Xuan well."

When Olga Marie heard what her father said, she remembered that she dreamed about the man who was like a masterpiece of God every day. When she thought of the scenes with him before, her face suddenly turned red.

"Miss Animusphia, come with me. We need to wait in advance," Loreleija said to Olga Marie, nodded to the twelve monarchs, turned around and walked out of the conference hall with elegant steps. Olga Marie followed in small steps.

Seeing this scene, the remaining eleven clock tower monarchs had flickering eyes, as if they had thought of something.

...

The high-tech private jet, piloted by Ram, landed on the helipad of the clock tower with Li Xuan, Xiaolan and Sonoko. Not far away, Loreleia was followed by Olga Marie and a dozen beautiful maids.

"We are very pleased to see Master Li Xuan back again. Barthelmero-Lorelea sends you her warmest greetings," Ram opened the cabin. When Li Xuan and Xiaolan walked out, Lorelea also came over and saluted with the etiquette of an aristocratic lady.

"Sorry to bother you again, Loreleia," Li Xuan said with a smile. He reached out and took Loreleia's hand, which had already taken off the silk glove, and gently kissed the back of the white hand, which was a hand-kissing gift.

After Loreleia saluted, she turned slightly to the side. Olga Marie came up behind her and bowed slightly, her voice a little nervous, "Olga Marie-Animusphia greets you, Master Li Xuan."

"Ms. Mary, there's no need to be nervous. We are friends, aren't we?" Li Xuan also took Olga Mary's hand and left a kiss on the back of her hand. Olga Mary's face instantly turned red and her long legs became a little weak because after Li Xuan kissed her hand, he reached out and touched her head.

"Let me introduce to you two. The one flying the plane is my personal maid Ram, a very good maid. These two are my future wives, Mouri Ran and Suzuki Sonoko," Li Xuan turned sideways and introduced the identities of Ram and the other three to Loreleiya and Olga Marie.

"Hello, Lorelea, Ms. Olga Marie x3," Ram and the other two also smiled and greeted Lorelea and the other two.

After getting to know each other, Li Xuan took Xiaolan's hand and followed Loreleiya away.

On the way, Li Xuan also briefly talked about Jack the Ripper.

When Loreleiah heard about Jack the Ripper, she frowned and immediately remembered the letter of authorization that the British police had recently sent to the Clock Tower.

Within Baker Street, vicious murders occurred. The victims were all women, all of whom were engaged in the pimp business. The scars on the victims were very horrific, similar to the suspense case that was also active on Baker Street in the last century, which was named Jack the Ripper.

"Ms. Mary, didn't you and Leah and the others fight against Jack the Ripper last time? Can you tell me about it?" Li Xuan spoke softly to Olga Marie, who was being entangled by Yuanzi's curiosity.

"Ah? Oh, okay, I understand." After hearing Li Xuan's words, Olga Marie apologized to Sonoko. When she saw Loreleiia looking at her with a reproachful look, she was startled and started talking immediately.

As Olga Marie told the story of how she and Altria had chased the evil spirit similar to Jack the Ripper, Xiaolan and Sonoko also learned some information about Jack the Ripper, while Loreleia thought of more.

Lorelea is the assistant to the dean of the Clock Tower and also the head of the Barthelmero family. She is a very powerful magician. In her record, she has even killed powerful creatures such as the Dead Apostles. Generally, when she receives extraordinary commissions, she will lead her choir to annihilate the target of the mission.

She originally thought that the Jack the Ripper incident was just an act imitated by human criminals, but after listening to Olga Marie, she quickly changed her mind and began to plan related actions. After entertaining Li Xuan and having free time, she would go and deal with it in person.

In the car on the way to the largest hotel on Baker Street, Li Xuan looked at Loreleia who was sitting next to him in a dignified and elegant posture, and suddenly he wanted to tease her. He looked at Yuanzi and the other two who were asking Olga Marie about places worth visiting in the UK, and Li Xuan placed his left palm on Loreleia's folded hands on her lower abdomen.

"Loreleija, will you always maintain this attitude when you are outside?" Li Xuan asked softly.

Loreleiya's body tensed slightly, but she immediately relaxed. Instead, she separated her hands and placed Li Xuan's hand in the middle of them.

"I inherited the name of Barthelmero and have always been strict with myself." Loreleija thought that Li Xuan was testing her, so she turned her eyes and looked at Li Xuan with a serious look in her eyes.

Seeing Loreleiya's serious face, Li Xuan felt more inclined to tease her. He pulled his hands away and placed them on Loreleiya's face, stroking it gently for a few times. "It seems boring to be so serious about yourself all the time, right?"

"Boring? I don't know what Master Li Xuan is talking about." Loreleija held Li Xuan's hand and rubbed it on his palm with a puzzled look.

As an absolute aristocrat, Loreleija is very strict about everything, and over the years, she has gotten used to it.

-Barcelona-Lorelea

Chapter 422 James Blake

"Just like now, you see, Xiaolan Yuanzi and Miss Mary are very relaxed, but you are very serious and silent. I almost thought that the person sitting next to me was a soft stone," Li Xuan said, pointing to the motionless stone passing by outside the car window.

Loreleiya's face changed slightly, and she was a little frightened. She immediately said, "It is my responsibility to bring a bad experience to Master Li Xuan. Please..."

Li Xuan placed his finger on Loreleia's lips and shook his head, "Loreleia, it's not that I don't like your current attitude. As the head of Barthelmero, you must have a lot of affairs to deal with, plus you need to express your views for the people below. Do you ever feel tired?"

Loreleija shook her head and hesitated for a few seconds before speaking, "I don't feel tired when I'm outside."

"Lorelea, Barthelmero will surely shine in your hands, but you can take a vacation for the next few days. Well, I'm giving you a vacation. How about you accompany us to have a good time here? During these days, you are not Barthelmero-Lorelea, but Lorelea," Li Xuan looked into Lorelea's eyes calmly and gently.

The serious look became a little bit at a loss, but under the warm breath coming from Li Xuan and wrapping herself, Loreleiya gradually calmed down, her cold expression began to soften, and her right-angle sitting posture also began to change. She took off the silk gloves on her hands, and somewhat to Li Xuan's surprise, she put her hands on her face, leaned over, and deeply imprinted her mark on Li Xuan's lips.

"As you wished, I am now a woman named Loreleia, and I am only responsible for accompanying you on tours. But I fell in love with you at first sight. What should I do?" The serious expression on Loreleia's face had disappeared, replaced by the delicate beauty of a woman.

Li Xuan was not afraid of such things. He kept smiling and reached out to hold Loreleiia in his arms. He lowered his head and whispered in her ear, "Although I know you are acting on purpose, I don't mind. Hahaha."

Loreleiya's body, which was leaning against Li Xuan, stiffened for a moment, but Li Xuan's hand on her back, which was as hot as a stove, quickly softened her stiffness.

"I'm sorry, although I'd like to be perfect, I don't have the experience in this area,..."

Once again, Li Xuan's fingers stopped him from saying anything.

"It's okay, Loreleija, now that you are in my palm, I have enough time to look forward to your changes. Whether you maintain your original appearance or undergo some changes, I like it either way," Li Xuan said in a very relaxed tone, feeling the softness of the head of the Barthelmero family.

Li Xuan's laughter naturally attracted the attention of Xiaolan and the other two, but Xiaolan and Sonoko just glanced at him and then looked away and continued their discussion. When in the villa, Li Xuan would always hold a beautiful girl in his arms in addition to handling things.

When Olga Marie saw Loreleia's posture, she was immediately shocked. She had been in the Clock Tower for so many years, and this was the first time she saw Loreleia like this. It was completely different from her usual serious and superior attitude.

At the largest luxury hotel in the Baker Street area, people walking by showed shocked expressions when they saw the car stopped.

"Am I seeing right? Is this the car from the Clock Tower?"

"Yes, that emblem is a symbol of the twelve monarchs."

"Someone important from the Clock Tower is coming here?"

Unlike the crowd who were talking about the incident, a blond man dressed in the uniform of a British police inspector frowned outside the hotel gate and said to his men beside him, "Johnson, check if there is anyone from the Clock Tower staying in the hotel today."

"Yes, Inspector Black!" The man immediately ran into the hotel front desk to check the hotel's check-in information.

At this time, the driver's door of the car in the clock tower outside the hotel opened, and a beautiful maid with pink hair and wearing a gorgeous maid outfit got out.

After the maid came down, she opened the back door, and the first to get out were Xiaolan, Sonoko and Olga Marie.

Then there was Loreleija, smiling.

"!?" James Blake was shocked when he saw Loreleia, then he straightened his collar and walked over quickly.

After walking a few steps, James Blake stopped again. This time, he could no longer conceal the shock in his heart, which was directly revealed on his face, because he saw that Loreleiia, a noble of the Clock Tower, was actually holding the arm of a black-haired young man and seemed to be acting coquettishly.

The black-haired young man turned around, and after Blake saw the young man's appearance clearly, he was struck by lightning and stood still. At this time, the police officer who went to retrieve the hotel check-in records ran out.

"Inspector Black, I found out that among the people who stayed in this time, the one in the clock tower is..."

Before the police officer finished speaking, Blake, who was awakened by the shouting, started and ran over immediately, braking suddenly to a stop in front of Li Xuan. In front of him, pink-haired Ram stood in front of Li Xuan. Although she didn't make any attacking movements, she just stood firmly and glanced at Blake, and Blake's running body stopped automatically.

"Stop now," Ram said in a cold voice.

Lorelia's eyes turned to Blake at this time. Seeing the police uniform he was wearing and his appearance, she immediately knew his identity.

"This should be Inspector Blake of the British Metropolitan Police Department. The Jack the Ripper case that Xiaolan's father received was the commission that Blake sent to the Clock Tower," Lorelia explained.

"Ram, since you are the police inspector, you should have recognized the clock tower. Let's go and see what he wants." Li Xuan didn't look at Blake. He looked towards the lobby of the hotel, where Kogoro Mouri and Conan were already discussing heatedly with a few people.

After hearing what Li Xuan said, Ram lost his aura and spoke slowly, "Is there anything you need? If not, please move aside, you are blocking the way."

After Ram's aura dissipated, Blake regained control of his body, touched the cold sweat running down his forehead, stood at attention, and responded, "Um, I'm James Blake, Inspector of the Metropolitan Police Department of Britain. Nice to meet Master Li Xuan and Ms. Loreleija. It's a great honor to meet you two."

Only when Li Xuan heard Blake calling out his name did he look over.

He is in his sixties with gray hair and beard. He is the boss who commands Shuichi Akai, Judy Stelling, Andre Camille and others. He was born on Baker Street in England and grew up in Chicago. Later he joined FB and provided intelligence to the lurkers in the winery.
