Chapter 225 Hide and Seek
Chapter 225 Hide and Seek
Edogawa Conan quietly slipped back to the sofa and sat down. He held his cell phone, still thinking about the news he had just heard.
Zhongli must have allowed him to eavesdrop because his plan required his participation. And did the Fatui really have such a big appetite? They actually wanted to swallow up the Black Organization? Was it just a bluff or was it true?
However, he soon stopped thinking about these things.
The door was pushed open, and a young man in green with a white flower on his hat pushed the door open. His clothes were all wet, and he ran in protecting his head.
At first, Conan Edogawa thought he was a passerby who came to take shelter from the rain like himself, but when he saw him skillfully take off his coat and hang it on the hanger, and then smoothly nestle into the sofa, he realized that he was definitely a member of the agency.
Sure enough, after the young man sighed, Funina, who was drinking tea elegantly, glanced at him.
"Have you completed all the commissions?"
Commission? So this is the "Wendy"?
"Yeah, it's all done." Wendy looked at Edogawa Conan, "Are you Edogawa Conan? I've heard of you for a long time."
Long heard of your name? Edogawa Conan's eyelids twitched. He wouldn't feel anything if he said this to Uncle Mori, after all, the famous detective known to the public was Uncle Mori. But saying this to him was very meaningful.
"Ha, haha, are you talking about Uncle Mori? Uncle Mori is indeed amazing. He has solved so many cases. I admire him very much." Conan Edogawa laughed dryly and tried to smooth things over.
"Am I talking about Mr. Maori?" Wendy tilted her head, the teasing in her beautiful green eyes almost becoming real.
So, is he kidding me?
The corner of Edogawa Conan's mouth twitched, and Wendy saw that she was seen through, so she gave up the idea of teasing him.
"Nice to meet you. I'm the best bard, and now I'm a fairly qualified detective... Anyway, I'm Wendy." The young man looked at Edogawa Conan with a smile, and the latter rolled his eyes and revealed a slightly awkward smile.
Seeing Edogawa Conan's reserved sitting posture, Wendy leaned back and nestled comfortably in the sofa: "Don't be so reserved. No one here will chase away a child who comes in to hide from the rain, right?"
"Stop bullying the kid, Wendy." After drinking the last sip of tea, Funina said somewhat dissatisfiedly.
"Okay, okay, are Linnie and the others still here?" Wendy raised his hands in surrender, with a gentle and bright smile in his eyes. He pointed in the direction of the second floor and asked.
"The three of them are all on the second floor. What do you want from them?" Funina finally looked at Wendy and asked with some confusion.
"Why... Linni is the next father of the Hearth House. Now that we have decided to start, of course we have to inform them." Wendy shrugged and turned to go upstairs.
"Decided to start? What...how did you know?" Finina frowned and repeated half of the sentence in confusion before she suddenly realized.
"How should I know?" Wendy, lying on the corner of the second floor, said in a clear voice, "The wind is always there."
【group chat】
[Zhongli: The final performance is about to begin. Actors can take their positions. Please resolve your uncertainties as soon as possible and bring the audience into the theater.]
[Funina: How can our farewell performance be without an audience? ]
[Then Villette: Then can I leave these cursed spirits? ]
【Zhongli: Of course you can.】
[Puppet: It's a pity that the Fatui have not yet succeeded in replacing the Black Organization. It's too hasty to act now.]
[Nashida: Whether it is the Fatui replacing the Black Organization, controlling the public security, controlling the magic world, or invading the supernatural world, these means are substitutes for the final plan to fail. Now that all the God's Hearts are in place, we don't need these substitutes. ]
【Zhongli: Everyone, let's start the action. 】

Navilette closed the chat room, looked at Togen, and said in a steady voice: "Togen, open the door, I want to go out."
He was holding two stuffed dolls, standing straight. The real person had just shrunk himself down to the size of a child, with a big head and a small body, which looked weird no matter how you looked at it.
"Nawei, you want to go out? This is the second time you've asked to go out. Are you going to find a place to torture their souls? Then I want to go too!" Zhenren raised his hand, his face full of excitement.
The first time he took the initiative to go out was because he wanted to see if the curse spirit was really as Zuosuo said. The second time was now. Zhenren was really curious about what kind of thing would make Vilette take the initiative to go out.
That Villette looked at the real person. After a while, he lowered his eyelids and said, "As long as you can find it, of course you can."
"Do you want to play hide-and-seek with me, Navi?" The real man narrowed his eyes slightly. He stared at Navilette for a long while, then suddenly moved closer to him and put his hand on Navilette's shoulder. "I am a cursed spirit born from human's fear of human beings. I embody the most direct malice, indifference, and sadistic desire of human beings towards each other. Cunning and madness are my synonyms. Do you really think I can't see such a simple way to leave?"
The stitched face suddenly became extremely hideous, but in the next second, it looked at Villette with a smile, its face very close, the unique chaos and disorder of the cursed spirit was fully reflected in it.
Zhenren's learning ability is extremely strong, and his spells targeting the soul make it have few opponents. Almost every time he recovers from near death, he becomes stronger and more difficult to deal with.
It can be said that if it weren't for Villette, Zhenren would be the new leader of the Curse Spirits.
But now - it is destined to become a victim of that curtain call.
"Of course I can play with you, Nawei, but don't let me find you, otherwise--" The real man showed a hideous smile. To it, the more interesting things are, the better.
Compared to the illusory and currently unreachable "new world" promised by the clepsydra, it is more interesting to play "hide and seek" with this person they think is their leader.
Let me think, how should I torture dear Nawei?
Torgon slowly opened a black door, and Navillatte walked in without any reluctance. When she was about to leave, Navillatte suddenly tilted her head and said, "To ensure the fairness of hide-and-seek, you can go to Teyvat to find me, real man."
If you step into our nest, walk into our audience seats, and become a member of the cast, and if you can take a big step forward in our dream, all of us will mourn you with gratitude, my - "friend".
The real person tilted his head like Navrette and smiled: "Navrette, the moment you step out of here, our game of hide-and-seek will begin. You must hide well."
