The Lone Wolf of Tomorrow's Ark
Page 568
However, Candela, a shrewd woman, is not so easy to be fooled, she smiled directly and said:
"Just a little joke, the famous Ms. Lin, how could I not know, your performance in some aspects is even better than that of Mr. Shu Wang, and it makes people feel very unfathomable."
"... Each other, but thank you for the compliment."
I have to say that Candela's speech skills are really amazing. She quite understands that Lin Yuxia doesn't want to be called the "Daughter of the Mouse King", so she directly praised the other party for being better than the Mouse King in some parts, but which part is different? Don't mention it, it's all up to the other party to guess.
After such a conversation, even though Lin Yuxia understood that Candela was just putting on a top hat for herself, she still felt a little comfortable wearing it, and she readily accepted it.
And after seeing Lin Yuxia chatting with the other party so easily, Chen knew that he couldn't continue to greet the other party, so he hurriedly figured out what the other party wanted to do, so he said directly:
"Ms. Candela, we are here purely for vacation, neither representing anyone nor provoking any trouble."
"Ah, don't worry, nephew Chen, you don't have to be so cautious. If you don't mind, you can actually call me aunt. After all, I once mentioned in front of Governor Wei that I wanted to be sworn brother and sister with him."
"Eh...worship..."
After hearing Candela's words, both Chen and Lin Yuxia had choked expressions. They really didn't expect that in order to build a good relationship with Wei Yanwu, Candela could do this. This is even more ridiculous than the eight o'clock stalls of Longmen they usually watch.
"However, it's a pity that Governor Wei seems to be somewhat resistant to this matter. I don't want to let it go because this incident has ruined my previous friendship with him, but I absolutely think that Governor Wei As a righteous brother, I can guarantee my personality on this."
"Uh... No, there's no need, it's more comfortable to call Mayor Candela directly."
For Candela, who was overly enthusiastic and even a little weird, Chen said that she was really difficult to deal with, and could only wave her hands awkwardly, declining the other party's call to get closer.
As for Chen's refusal, Candela didn't mind at all, she just smiled and said:
"Haha, with his eyebrows and eyes and the way he speaks, Nephew Chen is really similar to Governor Wei when he was young. Oh, by the way, you don't mind the address. I call you Nephew, and you call me Mayor. We can each All in all, I don't mind."
'I mind very much! '
Chen didn't say this sentence seriously, but just complained in his heart. After all, if he really wanted to say it, he would lose face at that time. This would be a big problem for the people of Yan Kingdom.
However, when Candela noticed the embarrassing expression on Chen's face, she just let it go. She didn't continue to talk about the address, and began to change the subject:
"Having said that, the two of you are really knight-errants. Bolivar's place is not a peaceful place. Did you come here together, or do you have other friends to help?"
"Yes……"
"Friends, in life, many friends have multiple paths. This is a saying in Yan Kingdom, isn't it?"
Regarding the question raised by Candela, Chen originally wanted to say that he came with a few friends, but just as soon as he said a word, Lin Yuxia answered the question, which made Chen surprised for a while.
But no matter what Chen said, he was also a senior police superintendent. After being stunned for two seconds, he immediately reacted.
Candela is obviously talking invisibly, probably thinking of getting closer to friends from the side, but what Lin Yuxia just said just put the option of friends in a close position, making it impossible for Candela to guess. Have these so-called friends gained the trust of Lin Yuxia and Chen?
After realizing this, to be honest, Chen felt very tired.
From the time I met Candela, it was a duel of various words. I was afraid that an omission would be some unnecessary information from my side. After so many rounds of confrontation, Chen had already quickly ended the conversation. mind.
Undoubtedly, when Chen showed such a micro expression, Candela, who had been observing the two of them, realized that it was almost the same. Her so many years of experience in seeing people were not just for fun, so Candela almost immediately Following Lin Yuxia's words, she began to act scheming:
"Haha, you're right. It seems that I haven't studied the knowledge of the Yan Kingdom thoroughly enough. I'm making a fool of myself. So let's get down to business. You two, I understand that you don't represent anyone, so you don't have to bear any burden. Don't worry. Play here, I'm here to promise, with me, nothing in this city can hurt you."
"Then thank you for your kindness..."
To be honest, Chen actually didn't believe Candela's guarantee at all. Even though this place looked so harmless and glamorous, smart people knew that this place was a place that eats people without spitting out their bones, so Chen would not Foolishly believe what Candela said.
Lin Yuxia is naturally the same. Although she thinks that Candela is definitely a strong person, it does not mean that she will trust Candela. Such a woman can only be regarded as an ordinary partner forever, and she cannot be suitable as a friend.
Looking at Chen and Lin Yuxia's somewhat similar faces, the smile on Candela's face seemed to be carved out, without any change, as if everything was under control, and then she said:
"So, the job of the two of you is to enjoy Dossoles, a city that I am so proud of, but, considering the skills and work content of the two nephews, I think you may be interested in the 'extra fun' I have prepared. Pay more attention."
"Extra fun?"
Hearing what Candela said, Chen and Lin Yuxia frowned slightly, their inner intuition told them that what Candela said must be something troublesome.
"But before talking about this, two nephews, do you know about Dosoles' Summer Grand Prix?"
"It's the big event that has been reported in the city recently. I have seen it."
On the way here, Chen and Lin Yuxia had already heard a lot of things about Dosores from the driver, and they had a preliminary understanding.
After hearing Chen's answer, Candela smiled with satisfaction, then looked back at the beautiful sea view outside the window, and began to introduce with a little pride:
"As we all know, Dossoles is most famous for the sea surrounded by the city, and the cruise ship on the sea, which is a masterpiece I restored using Iberia's technology at a great price."
After finishing this passage, Lin Yuxia frowned. If Iberia's technology is the most famous, then apart from the so-called "supreme technique" known as perfect technology, only the construction of ships is left. .
In the past, Iberia was famous for its invincible fleet that could gallop on the sea. The sea has almost become a subsidiary of this country. It is said that no matter how fierce the waves are, it can't stop the steel-clad and iron-framed ships.
However, such a country suffered an unprecedented blow in just a few days.
The unidentified creatures born in the sea swept over all the ships of Iberia at almost the fastest speed, turning them into broken scrap iron stranded on the shore.
So far, Iberia's Armada has been destroyed, and the deep sea has become a forbidden area that all countries are afraid of. However, the various materials about Iberia's ships have become backlogged in warehouses, and there is no one at all. I would be willing to study these things that are useless after doing it.
Therefore, Candela's way of using it as a tourist attraction is actually the final plan to make the best use of this cruise ship. Lin Yuxia even admires Candela's unique insights.
However, Lin Yuxia was concerned about the information and various forms of the cruise ship, but Chen was attracted by the golden statue standing on the cruise ship, and asked:
"That statue is also in the data?"
"Ahaha, of course not, that's just a little fun of mine."
"Small fun..."
Looking at the statue that looked like a dog from the side and a pig from the front, Chen couldn't help but wonder whether it was Candela's interest in aesthetics, or her appreciation of beauty.
Seeing that neither Chen nor Lin Yuxia asked any questions for the time being, Candela continued:
"Although this sea does come from the endless ocean in the north, it is only placed here after all. It will become dirty and smelly after a long time. In addition, there are more and more tourists. I also deliberately adjusted the water change time to at least two times a year. Once, in order not to let the tourists get bored during the water change period, this city-wide reality show supported by me appeared, the Extreme Ironman Grand Prix. I will not say more about the specific content. If the two nephews are interested , you can go to participate in the fun, and the staff will talk to you at that time."
"He actually turned the trouble into an event on purpose..."
Hearing this, Chen couldn't help admiring Candela's methods, and she also responded with a smile:
"I also thought it was a very risky attempt at the beginning, but I finally implemented it. It seems that the response is far better than I expected. The Extreme Ironman Grand Prix has become a signature event here, and everything is moving in a good direction. go ahead."
"Sorry to interrupt, does this have anything to do with the fun you just said, Ms. Candela?"
Maybe it was a bit boring to hear what Candela said, so Chen couldn't help but interrupt her. After being interrupted, Candela patted her head apologetically and said:
"Ah, look at my memory, I'm sorry, I'm a little too involved, it's like this, about last week, my people intercepted a batch of smuggling of explosives and universal origin stone circuits, although I allowed the city to appear There are a lot of illegal incidents, but about this type, even I will not just laugh it off, it is the number one issue related to the safety of tourists."
"…………"
At this time, Lin Yuxia had a new understanding of Candela's inner image, while Chen was more concerned about this smuggling case, and whispered:
"Evidently the Grand Prix is just around the corner, but something like this suddenly happened. Could it be that those people are already dissatisfied with Dosores to this extent..."
After seeing the reactions of Lin Yuxia and Chen, Candela's smile became more meaningful, and she said quite calmly:
"In short, that's it. If the two nephews feel that the Grand Prix is not exciting enough, how about taking this smuggling case as an event and investigating it for fun?
"Um... investigating... playing?"
Hearing Candela's words, Chen's expression became very exciting. One second, he was worried about whether the smuggling case would affect Dosores, but the next second he handed over the matter directly to her, saying Let her investigate for fun.
Such a diametrically opposite approach made Chen's affection for Candela quickly disappear, and he asked in surprise:
"Aren't you worried about any threats to your city?"
"Hehe, worry? Chen Shi-nephew, it seems that you still don't quite understand..."
When it came to this topic, Candela had a rare expression of arrogance on her face, and then she heard the strong woman say firmly:
"With me, no one can threaten Dosores."
"........."
"........."
Hearing Candela's confident speech, both Chen and Lin Yuxia were a little overwhelmed. For a while, they didn't know whether to evaluate her for being too bold or her speech was too amazing.
While Chen and Lin Yuxia remained silent, Candela continued to speak:
"I can assure you that the two nephews can make all the choices they want. No matter what the result is, the two of you don't have to take any responsibility. As I said, this is just my vacation for the two nephews. , a little extra fun to prepare, that's all."
"........."
At this time, Chen is still keeping silent, because she really doesn't know how to evaluate Candela, her behavior is always so unpredictable, even Wei Yanwu didn't give her such a sense of oppressive words , but fortunately, Lin Yuxia was not affected too much, so she replied directly:
"We get it."
"Well, then I would like to wish the two nephews the best of luck. Oh, by the way, considering that I still have some trivial matters to spare, I plan to find a guide for you, I don't know..."
"No need."
"no need."
PS: emmm, I feel dizzy, maybe it's because I didn't sleep well last night.
Chapter 670 Shuiyue: At that time... I didn't react
"Ugh?"
Even though Candela is an extremely clever woman, after facing Chen and Lin Yuxia's two consecutive denials, she was stunned for a while, but soon she came back to her senses and continued to smile, as if she was stunned just now. It was not like her, and asked:
"Eh... do the two nephews want to visit Dosores by themselves? Although this idea is not bad, but it is the first time for the two of you, it would be better to have a guide, at least no matter what Both the competition and the investigation are somewhat helpful, and the two of you can also trust my vision, this is the guide I personally chose, Ernesto, come in."
"Crack..."
As soon as Candela finished speaking, the wooden door opened, and a figure in summer clothes with a toy-shaped knife on his waist walked in. Chen and Lin Yuxia also cast their gazes over, anyway, Candela took Someone called in, so let's take a look at it for the sake of saving face.
The person who came was a young man of the Pero tribe. He was handsome. He had short light blond hair and light blue eyes. The corners of his mouth were slightly raised, showing a standard approachable smile. Just by looking at him, he looked like a sunny and handsome man. The big brother next door.
However, it is such a template that both men and women will feel close to each other. In the eyes of Chen and Lin Yuxia, it seems a bit ordinary. Like Xiao Fei, the two of them are almost in an instant, and this Ernesto and her own Phoenix are up and down. Compare it:
'The ears are drooping, they don't stand up like Xiaofei and can shake, they are not cute at all, bad review. '
'Eyes, light blue heroic type, can only be said to be okay, but not as attractive as Xiao Fei's watery and heterochromatic pupils, bad review. '
'Body shape, the height and muscle ratio of a male god is normal, but it has nothing to do with women's clothing, and can't wear cute little skirts like Xiaofei, bad review. '
………………
After some comparison, Ernesto, the guide personally selected by Candela, was not qualified in any of Chen and Lin Yuxia's minds, and was hanged and beaten directly.
As for why the two had to make a comparison deliberately, the reason is naturally very obvious. The guide that Candela personally selected must have a little surveillance in it, although the premise of this surveillance is simply to know Chen and Lin Yuxia fell in love with each other and did not make friends, but they were considered surveillance after all.
Besides, with so many cronies under Candela's staff, she chose a handsome guy who seemed the most agreeable. Obviously, to a certain extent, Candela wanted to use the "beauty trick" on the two of them.
It's just a pity that Chen and Lin Yuxia's aesthetics have been spoiled by Phoenix. As perfect believers, with the blessing of some ancient gods, Phoenix's appearance will definitely not be inferior to most people in Terra, and even more so. Not to mention that he is just an ordinary handsome guy, and this handsome guy has a fake expression.
