There is nothing wrong with the training method of the Justice Messenger

"How can a servant contact the master on his own initiative? Wouldn't that disturb the master's work? Isn't it the servant's way of being to be available at any time instead of being invisible?"

Suzuka knew this was the truth, but after listening to Li Nian's explanation, she felt that he had missed the point. She muttered in dissatisfaction, "... At least give me a few calls. I always call you, but you never call me. It makes me feel that you don't care about others at all."

Li Nian opened her mouth slightly. She really couldn't understand it. They had many opportunities to meet each other in school before. They just hadn't been in touch in the past few days. Was it necessary for him to be described as such a heartless guy?

Besides, he was not too worried about the safety of Suzuka, the kid who was being targeted by Fujiki and the others. It was also not that he didn't want to pay more attention to Suzuka's condition, but when he had offered to further protect her, it was she who refused.

Although Suzuka is young, he has the pride and corresponding strength of a national-level demon exorcist. This kind of researcher also has his own secret research and should not like to be disturbed on a daily basis. Taking these into consideration, Li Nian did not take the initiative to contact Suzuka.

I've never seen Suzuka so uneasy before. Her emotional instability often has a reason. At this moment, Suzuka's shyness is a bit out of character, which means...

"...The fact that you have to contact Fujiki and hand over information to him seems to make you really uneasy?"

“…! Uneasy? Who are you talking about? Me? How can a child prodigy like me feel uneasy? What a joke! I’m not afraid of a mere Fujiki!”

Like a cat whose tail was stepped on, Suzuka suddenly became agitated, but her explanation sounded more like a cover-up.

She was indeed uneasy.

I am indeed worried about having contact with Fujiki.

The reason why he came to accompany Suzuka on such a matter was to ensure her safety, but Fujiki shouldn't be someone who would scare Suzuka.

Li Nian understood this girl's personality. She was actually quite reckless and had already gone to a meeting alone and had contact with Teng Qi once.

If someone agreed to assist with the Taishan Lord Sacrifice, they must have contacted each other afterwards, otherwise the agreement on the handover of information would not have been reached.

It would be even more impossible to be afraid of Teng Qi, because the handover of information was at least the third contact.

The fact that she had just given herself room to regret showed that Suzuka didn't really want to involve Li Nian in this. Even so, she still wanted Li Nian to go with her. She was so timid about the mere handover of information, which showed that she had greater fear and dread besides facing Fujiqi.

Was it because she was traumatized by the strong man like Tsuchigumo before, and was she afraid of encountering a scary monster again this time? This was something Li Nian had thought of before. There was a 99% chance that the cautious Tengqi was also worried that Suzuka would attract the same trouble as Lu Sheng... In fact, she did ask me to follow her to calm the situation, and no one stopped her. If she had that idea, she could have taken Tengqi down on the spot.

Fujiki will probably bring someone else with him when he meets Dalianji Suzuka again this time. Li Nian is looking forward to meeting a strong man of Tsuchigumo's level, which will bring him some excitement.

Li Nian thought that Suzuka was only afraid of being involved in a battle.

"Don't worry. I've said it before. No matter who it is, I will kill him if he dares to attack me. I will protect the boss." Li Nian is now more confident in the battle. Not only has he become stronger, but more importantly, he has a new subordinate... Oh no, a new friend: "Don't forget, I can also summon earth spiders!"

"...If that guy shows up, the situation will really turn into a fight. Please don't call him out casually... Actually, that's not what I'm worried about."

Li Nian said that Suzuka was worried about something.

But he seemed to have guessed wrong. Suzuka denied Li Nian's guess, but did not explain. After hearing what Li Nian said, she patted her chest and assured that she could protect her. The girl calmed down and her expression became gentle.

He smiled and said, "But with you by my side, I have nothing to fear."

Since Li Nian was willing to go with her, she felt that she had achieved her purpose of looking for her. She nodded and turned away: "Then I won't bother you anymore."

She really just came to Li Nian to talk about something that had been on her mind for a long time, and then left.

"Wait." Li Nian stopped her: "You haven't eaten yet, eat something before leaving."

Suzuka was stunned; she had never expected this.

Li Nian didn't say that she didn't plan to eat lunch, but that didn't matter. She had always been very casual about eating. When she was doing research in her room, she often forgot to eat on time.

But after hearing what Li Nian said, she realized that she was a little hungry and thought it was time to eat something, so she went to the window to order a set meal, sat next to Li Nian, and started eating in small bites.

Li Nian had finished eating a long time ago. He snapped his fingers to remove the unnecessary invisibility spell, but he did not leave. He just watched from the side with his chin propped up. The girl looked very delicate while eating, but she felt uncomfortable being stared at by Li Nian.

"…Why do you have to watch a lady eat?"

"I'm just afraid that you'll feel lonely." Before, Suzuka complained that Li Nian didn't care about her because he didn't contact her actively. Now Li Nian wants to prove to this girl that this is not the case.

He also found that Suzuka had few friends around her and seemed to be really lonely. This seemed to be the reason why she was overly dependent on him.

He didn't think there was anything to point out. He was just a child. What was wrong with a child relying on adults?

"Are you an idiot..." Suzuka cursed, but she didn't seem disgusted. Having this person sitting next to her really made her feel at ease. She didn't think about it anymore and continued to eat.

Seeing her deliberately picking out things she didn't like, such as green peppers, Li Nian reminded her, "Being picky about food will lead to malnutrition."

“…You’re too talkative.”

Without the concealing aura of invisibility, Li Nian and Suzuka's presence was naturally very conspicuous and they were watched by many people.

I feel like they are a pair of brother and sister.

Chapter 431: What Dalian Temple Suzuka fears and relies on

Suzuka was reluctant, but still ate various things including green peppers under Li Nian's gaze.

In fact, Li Nian just mentioned it casually, hoping that children would not be picky about food.

But of course he felt that he had no right to give orders to the sponsor, so he just gave a reminder. He was a little surprised that Suzuka ate it obediently.

When he first met Suzuka, he had an arrogant impression. In fact, when she first came to this school, Suzuka caused a stir and brought trouble to Li Nian. When the fool confessed his love to her, Li Nian almost used Li Nian as a shield to pretend to be her boyfriend. Fortunately, Li Nian cleverly defined the relationship between Suzuka and himself as "a friend's sister" in front of everyone.

It was obvious that Suzuka was a guy who didn't care about others and was willing to cause trouble for others, but now the kid seemed to be much more honest in front of him.

Is it because he didn't dare to act rashly after seeing my strength? But he didn't show how honest he was in front of Lord Tianruo. Did he think I was more terrifying than Tianruo? Li Nian was quite proud of this thought, but it was probably not the case. Normal people would stay away from the guy they were afraid of... So he probably just treated him as a friend.

After finishing the meal, as if to show off a great achievement, Suzuka proudly showed the empty plate to Li Nian, as if to say, I can eat something I don't like if I try hard.

Although it seemed a bit ridiculous for a child prodigy to behave like this, Li Nian thought about it and realized that the child prodigy had an immature side that was consistent with her age. Instead, she thought she was quite cute and praised her with a smile.

"Yoshi yoshi, Suzuka is a good girl." As he said this, he couldn't help but reach out and rub her head.

"...Who is the child, idiot." Suzuka complained dissatisfiedly and shook her head. She was unable to break free, but she did not slap Li Nian's hand away either.

After returning the food trays, Li Nian took the meals for her friends and went back to the classroom with Suzuka. On the way, she asked about their class's school festival and learned that the project that Suzuka's class was working on was a maid cafe... This was already a clichéd project in the school festival, and it was also a popular option when Li Nian's own class proposed the project.

It's a pity that the girl group led by Miura was led astray by a fujoshi named Ebina Hina, and ended up having to perform a corrupt version of "The Little Prince".

Recently, Ebina has been persistent in trying to get Li Nian to transfer from the props group to an actor to play opposite Ye Shan. No matter how firmly she refuses, she can't stop that guy from constantly looking at her buttocks. Li Nian is really afraid of her.

The school festival was approaching, and although Li Nian had been working hard for the class and making various props seriously, as a normal male he did not want to watch the crappy play that included the fruits of his labor.

Who is interested in a play about impure friendship between men?

If possible, he also wanted to see beautifully dressed girls. When he heard that Suzuka's class was working on a maid cafe project, he immediately became interested.

"Oh, then I will definitely go and enjoy the maid's hospitality."

"Hehe, are you coming?" Suzuka said with a sly smile, "If you are interested in me, just say so. Then, my master, I can condescend to serve you to reward you for your efforts."

"You're here to serve? Wait, are you involved in your class's school festival project?"

Li Nian thought that Suzuka would not be interested in this kind of activity. On the surface, she was an exorcist, and in fact, she should have a lot of things to do. Li Nian assumed that she would find an excuse to refuse. Everyone knew that the child prodigy had a prominent status and was busy with work, so no one should have doubts about this.

What she meant at this time was that she was also a maid in the maid cafe, which immediately surprised Li Nian.

Speaking of this, Suzuka became even more excited.

"...I had no interest in it originally, but I couldn't resist the kind invitation of the mortals. On the condition that I don't need to participate in the preparations, I have to be the poster girl on the day of the cultural festival." She said, flicking her hair and said proudly: "I can't help it. Who can blame me for being too charming? Isshiki said that they can't do without me. I can only help them with such an important matter reluctantly."

Having a child prodigy as a poster girl must be a great gimmick, which can attract a lot of attention to their class's maid cafe project. It should be expected that someone would invite her, but the process of her agreeing to the job seemed to be that she was flattered to the point of forgetting herself and agreed without hesitation.

That person's name is Isshiki... Isshiki Caiyu? Li Nian has an impression of that kid.

When I went to look for Suzuka in her class before, I greeted this person. When I left without finding her, I stopped her and asked her to say a few good words about her in front of Yeshan. From my impression, she was a very cute girl, and also a scheming type. Suzuka seemed to be flattered by this person's few words.

This is really... interesting.

Of course Li Nian would not say it out loud. He thought it was a good thing that Suzuka could take this opportunity to build good relationships with people in the class.

I really want to see this kid put on a maid outfit and serve him.

"Where are you and your group of mortal friends?" Suzuka asked.

"Ah? Are you asking about our class? Our class project is to perform a play, an adaptation of The Little Prince."

"What is that?" The books that Suzuka read were all research materials related to Yin-Yang magic, ancient deeds, or monster legends. Literary works such as "The Little Prince" were not within her scope of study.

"I don't know what that is either, don't ask me."

"Aren't you the protagonist?"

"I'm a handyman."

"They let you do odd jobs... The mortals in your class are really short-sighted."

"What do you know? I refused with all my might so that I didn't get to star in it."

"What do you mean...Anyway, can I see you when I get there?"

"No, I'm behind the scenes, but there's a love story between a beautiful boy and a popular man in the play. Are you interested?"

"What the hell is that? No, I'm not interested in watching it without you in it, but you have to come and see me."

"Order."

"You should have come to see me even without being ordered to do so! I'm a poster girl, the kind that only needs to stand there and smile. I won't serve ordinary stinky boys, only you... Don't get me wrong! I just want to return your favor, it's not that you're so special!"

Suzuka was just standing there as a sign and didn't need to be busy around. This was the condition agreed upon at the beginning. Only because Li Nian seemed interested did Suzuka want to play with him.

"Yes, yes... But you don't owe me anything, you take the money and I do the work, it's clear."

"What? You won't help me if I don't pay?"

"No, actually I would have helped you if you said so." Li Nian came back to his senses and suddenly became alert, covering the bag with the wallet. "But now that things have come to this, don't even think about getting the 80 million back. Favors have to be repaid. I don't want you to pay me back if you pay me. In exchange, I will fight for you and risk my life for you. 80 million won't buy you any loss or deception, right?"

"I didn't ask you to pay it back. Look at you. It's just a mere 80 million yuan." Suzuka despised the miserly behavior of this man, but with a smile on her lips, she was actually quite satisfied with Li Nian's answer.

As they were chatting, they arrived at the floors divided into different grades. The first grade was on the first floor. Li Nian waved his hand and said goodbye to Suzuka.

Standing in the stairwell, Suzuka looked up at Li Nian's back, her smile quickly faded, and she became a little lonely.

The feeling of having Li Nian by her side is reassuring and relaxing.

This is not a rare experience for others, but it is very rare for Dalian Temple, especially recently.

She has been walking alone all this time, without any help from anyone.

The person who was closest to Dalianji Suzuka in the past was a guy with panda eyes who had a sour face all day long.

As for Tenruka Qingxian, he is the only one who comes to see her whenever he has time, but he only knows how to act like an elder and strictly discipline her. If she does anything wrong, she will be scolded and despised by this guy. Although it was this guy who took on the responsibility of a half-baked guardian to raise Suzuka... Suzuka hates Tenruka very much.

Moreover, Tian Ruo is very busy and only visits her occasionally. When he sees her, he can hardly say a good word. He either criticizes her lifestyle and criticizes her, or scolds her for being arrogant and rude in dealing with people. It would be better if she didn't come.

Li Nian is different. He is a powerful wizard, but he is not arrogant. He despises her stupidity and childishness, but does not mind her arrogance and offense. Most of the time, he just smiles heartlessly and treats her with tolerance. He also thinks about her from the bottom of his heart, supports her long-cherished wish, and worries about her safety. Suzuka knows that Li Nian has regarded her as a true friend.

Only Li Nian would be willing to sincerely help her perform the forbidden technique of Taishan Lord Sacrifice.

Suzuka knew that by getting closer to Fujiki, the information she would obtain would definitely make her Taishan Fujun Festival closer to success than ever before.

But Suzuka understood better that this was because the source of this information came from another man who had done in-depth research on the Taishan Fujun Festival.

She had a strong premonition that as she came into contact with Fujiki and as she perfected her preparations for the implementation of the Taishan Lord Ceremony, she would definitely meet the person who was truly the mastermind behind the scenes. Perhaps she would meet that person during this data handover.

Met her father, Zhidao of Dalian Temple.

As a result, she has felt more uneasy and fearful than ever before in recent times.

Suzuka was really scared of that person, because that person killed her brother in her childhood and performed various experiments on her.

She could be confident in facing anyone. At worst, she would just have to fight to the death. If she lost, it would be because she was not good enough. But if it was the Zhidao of Dalian Temple who appeared in front of her...

She really didn't have the confidence to face it alone, she needed another person's help.

But at this time, she suddenly realized that she knew too few people.

Suzuka had thought about asking Tian Ruo for help, hoping that he could help her perform the Taishan Fujun Festival... But once she had the idea, she knew it was an extremely stupid idea. Expecting the head of the Curse Search Department to help you perform forbidden techniques? What a joke, Tian Ruo might be very interested in Dalian Temple Zhidao, but if he knew that Suzuka was colluding with others to perform the Taishan Fujun Festival, he would definitely beat her ass on the spot.

She could only seek help from other people. That person had to be strong enough to face the terror on her behalf, and also had to be willing to help her, willing to help her with the Taishan Lord Festival... That person could only be Li Nian.

That's why Suzuka asked Li Nian to go with her.

Originally, she wanted to say a few words and then leave without disturbing him, but Li Nian kept her. Suzuka stayed by his side for a while longer. Feeling the long-lost sense of security and relaxation from him again, she was a little reluctant to part with Li Nian.

Suzuka reached out her hand, wanting to call out to Li Nian, wanting to say, "Hey, servant, just stay with me."

As long as Li Nian was by her side, she wouldn't have to be afraid. She didn't have to be wary of her surroundings for fear of being attacked, because the servants would block it for her. She didn't have to resist falling asleep for fear of having nightmares, because the servants would watch over her.

Li Nian had a feeling and looked back in confusion, and saw Suzuka looking at him with a smile and waving at him, meaning goodbye.

Li Nian also waved at her, walked around the corner of the stairs and disappeared.

In the end, Suzuka didn't say her request for Li Nian to stay by her side all the time.

Even if she knew, Li Nian would definitely agree as long as she told him that she was scared and had nightmares recently.

But Suzuka had met those people who were really close to Li Nian, and knew that compared to them, she was not more important to Li Nian. She was not his real sister and was not worthy of his love and care.

Suzuka also felt that she couldn't be so cowardly, couldn't be so selfish... and didn't need to be so nervous.
