Without knocking, she rushed out the window and into the room. Honeysuckle made almost no sound, so she saw that Rupert, who was unaware of Honeysuckle's arrival, had his eyes closed and looked like he was praying.
Are you praying for your own death? What are you waiting for?
Su Rui didn't understand why Ren Dong was waiting, and Ren Dong didn't explain either. She simply placed the blade against the man's neck, causing him to tremble involuntarily and turn his head shakily to look at her.
"Ms. Honeysuckle, I..."
"Nothing to say?"
"No, it's just a matter of getting paid to do a job."
In other words, just as I said, he's just an ordinary person; I've investigated that.
'Hmm...I understand.'
Ren Dong nodded, and after resolving all her current objectives, she left the Venetian family mansion with ease, guided by Su Rui.
Then she saw Lappland waiting there. She hadn't seen Honeysuckle come out yet. When she came to the car, Honeysuckle gently knocked on Lappland's car. Lappland, who was leaning against the car waiting for her, turned her head and smiled.
"Something really important seems to have happened just now, don't you think?"
"You knew it from the beginning, didn't you?"
“I investigated the Venetian family’s intelligence.” Lappland didn’t shy away from this matter; on the contrary, she was quite frank about it.
"Isn't it natural for a family to have two people who are vying for the position of heir?"
“I never intended to choose this position from the beginning.”
Honeysuckle frowned, opened the car door, and sat in the passenger seat: "Drive."
“Okay, where to? To the hotel. Suri is waiting for us there, and you can discuss your plans with him there.”
“Oh, actually, there’s no need. Suri and I can communicate via phone, can’t we?” Lappland got into the driver’s seat, and Honeysuckle, the team leader, raised an eyebrow.
"You know, it's like before, having Su Rui contact my phone directly."
"No, you must communicate only when I am present."
Honeysuckle was uncompromising. She felt that if Suri and Lappland talked alone, Lappland might take the opportunity to do something, and Honeysuckle would not allow that to happen.
Lappland shrugged indifferently: "Fine, in that case, I'll go with you."
"Speaking of which, even if we were communicating electronically, I could involve you."
'Direct communication is more convenient, and with me here, Lappland wouldn't dare do anything.'
'I think Lappland's personality means that whether you're there or not, it doesn't prevent her from saying things that are unexpected.'
Honeysuckle shook her head: 'It's different if someone threatens you with a sword.'
As Suri and Honeysuckle continued their conversation, Lappland drove all the way to the hotel where Suri and Suzuran were resting.
"The room is on the top floor, and the view is great, so I chose this location."
Honeysuckle nodded and led Lappland to the top floor, which was an entire suite that required authentication to enter.
However, Suri directly operated the equipment and brought Honeysuckle and Lappland up.
Volume 7, Chapter 423: I am not for sale.
"Welcome. What would you like to drink? We have black tea if you want tea, red wine and beer if you want alcohol, but we don't have water if you want water."
Suri leaned back on the sofa in the living room, playing a game, and greeted Honeysuckle and Lappland, who had come up to the top floor in the elevator.
"Has he always been like this?" Lappland looked at Honeysuckle beside her, feeling a little puzzled by Suri's somewhat strange way of greeting her.
“Suri only does this occasionally.” Honeysuckle didn’t look at Lappland, but walked past her and sat down next to Suri, indicating that Lappland could sit opposite her.
"Yes, I make mistakes occasionally, often occasionally."
Suri shrugged and pushed a can of black tea in front of Lappland:
"We only have black tea. If you want something else, you can get it yourself."
Honeysuckle glanced around but didn't see Lily of the Valley: 'Where's Lily of the Valley?'
"Don't worry, I won't let her get away." Su Rui said, opening the scanning field again: "Linglan is reading in her bedroom. She's such a good daughter, so well-behaved and not causing any trouble..."
"What's wrong?" Ren Dong asked, puzzled by Su Rui's pause, wondering what he had thought of.
I was probably quite sensible when I was little.
'Yes, you're great, as expected of Suri.'
Honeysuckle smiled somewhat helplessly. "Should I say, as expected of you? Even at a time like this, you're thinking about being praised?"
However, what Su Rui was thinking about this time wasn't praise or anything like that: 'You misunderstood. What I meant was that my obedience when I was little was just forbearance. Now that I'm older, I don't need to listen to some of my family's unreasonable demands.'
"So that's what you're worried about. We wouldn't make any unreasonable or coercive demands on Leader Liu over the past six years."
Honeysuckle smiled and gently nudged Suri with her shoulder: "Alright, what do you want to say to Lappland? Hurry up and say it."
Suri placed her phone on the table and gently pushed it in front of Lappland, who picked it up.
On Lappland's phone and in Honeysuckle's field of vision, the scan of Wolsini, which Suri had shown, appeared:
“You all know that New Vorsini is about to be completed, so the families will definitely celebrate like this, and then try to send their influence into the new city.”
As Su Rui spoke, she marked the location of the banquet: "So they planned this banquet, actually to conduct some exchanges of benefits during the banquet. But none of that matters anymore, because there will be a planned explosion that will put the family that seems to have the most advantage in trouble. One of their ministers will be killed in the explosion. The rest will be decided by force."
As Su Rui spoke, he revealed the plan, though of course, this was not his own plan.
"So what are your plans?" Lappland looked at Suri with a half-smile.
"I have no ideas or plans, and you haven't revealed your purpose yet."
Suri shrugged. If it were an ordinary person facing Lappland's expression, they would probably be nervous and want to run away. But now it was Suri sitting in front of Lappland, and if they really fought, Lappland would definitely be the one who died.
“Me? Of course I hope the Saluzzo family becomes stronger so they can take over the new mobile city.”
Lappland gave a standard fake smile, and Suri mercilessly exposed her intentions:
"Come on, you never really intended to do anything for the Saluzzo family, right? If you did, you wouldn't have called me here."
"Then tell me, what should I do?"
"Feeling lost, aren't you?" Suri winked at Lappland, who was giving her a forced smile.
"After all, you don't like your family, but you don't really want to destroy them directly, right? Then let the situation become a bit chaotic, see how they're in a mess, and find something to cheer yourself up."
As Suri spoke, she marked several figures in Lappland's field of vision:
“Each family has its own power base, and if these people die, their struggle for interests will definitely be affected… But what if all the families had their gloves removed?”
"They will then break off all pretense and fight in a more direct way."
Lappland nodded: "At least the idea is interesting, I'll give it a try. Also, thanks for the information."
As she spoke, Lappland got up and walked outside, but as she approached the single unit, she suddenly heard a gunshot.
An Originium-etched bullet flew past her and embedded itself in the wallpaper-covered wall.
"This is the result of our duel; I won."
Suri glanced at Lappland, who was staring at her expressionlessly, and gave her a provocative smile:
"So, do you want to fight me again? You were already dead!"
"We'll wait and see. I think there's even bigger chaos in the part of the information you didn't tell me, right?"
Lappland didn't immediately intend to attack Suri. Instead, she let out a strange laugh, got into the elevator, turned to look at Suri, and mouthed to him:
I'll come back to see you later.
"Goodbye." Suri didn't care about Lappland's threat. She couldn't escape Suri's scanning vision at all. Every move she made was under Suri's surveillance. This threat was less of a threat and more like a kitten bristling.
Honeysuckle reached out and pinched Su Rui's cheek with a hint of helplessness: "I know you came because of her provocation, but using a gun to directly threaten her life is no joke."
“Well, there’s nothing I can do about that.” Suri shrugged. “You know I’m not a fighter. Even with my scanning vision, I can’t guarantee I won’t get hurt at all. So it’s better to use my rapid-fire gun.”
As Su Rui spoke, she put away the repeating pistol she was carrying and walked towards Linglan's room:
"Speaking of which, you dealt with so many people at your mansion in Venice, you must be tired, right? Would you like something to eat? I can make you something, or would you prefer something simpler, like a hot pizza?"
"Give me a serving of Suri to try."
"I am not food, and this shop will not sell people as ingredients."
Suri glanced at Honeysuckle, then gently knocked on Lily of the Valley's door:
"Little Lily of the Valley, what would you like to eat for lunch?"
"Is it time to make lunch? I'll help."
Linglan opened the door, her eyes sparkling as she looked at Su Rui: "I like to eat whatever Daddy makes."
It seems that Lily of the Valley prefers to participate in the process rather than choosing the food.
Suri reached out and ruffled Linglan's hair: "Okay, let's do it together."
Volume 7, Chapter 424: The Bloodstained Banquet
With nothing much to do in the afternoon, after lunch, Honeysuckle and Lily of the Valley read together. After all, Syracuse was more chaotic than usual and not a good place to go out and play.
Moreover, Honeysuckle believed that Syracuse was actually not much to see besides its scenery.
The family banquet was scheduled for the afternoon. Linglan was told by Rendong to go read and rest, while she took Su Rui back to the bedroom. On the soft bed, she held Su Rui, the handsome nine-tailed fox, with a phone and red wine beside her, watching the scene that Su Rui presented in her vision.
However, Honeysuckle chose soft pastries, while Suri chose crispy potato chips and cola.
So, while Ren Dong swirled her wine glass, waiting for the chaos she had long anticipated to unfold outside the banquet hall in the scene, in this quiet atmosphere, Suri was crunching on potato chips and gulping down her cola in her arms.
Ren Dong sighed helplessly, put her arm around Su Rui's shoulder, and felt Su Rui's fluffy tail twitching from time to time, rubbing against her chin, and the soft, big tail she was holding in her arms.
What else could she do? Since Su Rui liked it, she had no objection. It was just eating some of Su Rui's favorite snacks; it wasn't a serious problem.
Putting these unnecessary thoughts aside, Ren Dong began to observe the situation around the banquet hall. Su Rui marked the "big shot" who was being targeted and also told Ren Dong in advance that someone would try to kill him by using an explosion.
However, Su Rui concealed a lot of information, including the specific execution and the personnel to be selected.
These are probably meant to help honeysuckle distract herself when she feels bored.
However, since Suri had already started watching with Honeysuckle, it naturally meant that the performance was about to begin.
"Watch closely, the explosion is coming soon! And then... huh?"
Just as Su Rui was about to tell Ren Dong what was about to happen, Ren Dong pinched her mouth shut.
'You know that pinching your mouth shut won't stop me from speaking in your head, right?'
'Of course, there's no need to say it aloud; let's just watch it happen.'
That's what Honeysuckle said, and Suri nodded indifferently: 'Okay.'
Soon, flames erupted from a car parked at the main entrance of the banquet hall. Accompanied by a huge roar, the passengers inside were killed instantly by the explosion before they could even scream.
Watching the explosion, Suri pondered, "Should I edit this video and show it to Suzuran as a safety lesson?"
"No need, you've already taught her before, there's no need to have Linglan watch it again."
Honeysuckle rubbed Suri's big tail and buried her face in it. Even so, it couldn't stop Honeysuckle from seeing the scenes that Suri was showing her.
As the explosion occurred, Suri showed the chaotic scene caused by the explosion before shifting the perspective to reveal Lappland's figure.
With the information provided by Su Rui, Lappland had already infiltrated the banquet hall. Or rather, her identity qualified her to enter the banquet hall. Once inside, Lappland only needed to disguise herself slightly to make sure no one would mistake her for the killer in the upcoming murder.
Honeysuckle watched as Lappland, carrying her twin swords, seemed somewhat unfamiliar with checking each doorplate in the banquet hall, and felt a little puzzled.
'I remember, didn't you provide intelligence to Lappland?'
"Of course I provided her with intelligence. I told her everything: what kind of attire each target would wear, when they would appear, and where they would be."
Suri gave Ren Dong a light elbow nudge, somewhat annoyed: "I just didn't give her goggles or headphones; I was planning to let her handle it herself, especially since she provoked me before."
"It's not just these reasons, is it? I think, given your personality, you wouldn't do this unless there were more reasons. Suri, you really enjoy the feeling of driving, don't you? Especially seeing how others obey your commands."
"...You're right, but Lappland's goals are very ambitious. If she can't solve the current problems independently, then I seriously doubt whether she can cooperate with me to achieve our next objectives."
Suri paused, carefully observing Ren Dong's reaction, and before she could speak, she suddenly interrupted Ren Dong's spellcasting by continuing to speak:
"Don't worry, Lappland is fully capable of handling these problems. Even if something unexpected happens, she can resolve it with her abilities."
Ren Dong nodded, not dwelling on the matter with Su Rui any longer, and continued watching Lappland's actions in the video.
