I really didn’t give it to you.
This made Siegfried subconsciously lean over to look at the computer screen, but this caused Theresa to glare at Siegfried. How could she let Siegfried see this screen?
In Theresa's eyes, the two people under the night sky looked more like a father and daughter than Siegfried and Kiana.
Well, father and daughter.
Although it looked a bit like a couple having a late-night rendezvous, and it looked like they might dive into the woods for a fight at any moment, but thinking of her grandfather's personality, Theresa felt that it was more like a father taking his daughter... no, a grandfather taking his granddaughter's niece out for a walk.
But how did they get involved in the mystery of Wu Xianling Temple?
Theresa rubbed her head, and what worried her was that she didn't notice any signs at all, not only that, Kiana didn't tell her anything at all.
My good niece actually has a secret that she can't tell her aunt.
This made Theresa feel a little disappointed. Looking at the two people walking together, she also wanted to take Kiana out for a walk in the middle of the night like her grandfather did, and even take her out for a midnight snack or something.
"what happened?"
Siegfried spoke up. He felt that Theresa's mood was a little off. Could there be something else behind this?
"Nothing, the surveillance camera captured Grandpa's image."
Theresa fast-forwarded the time to the early morning and saw her grandfather coming out of the Central Church alone carrying something that looked like a human. She checked the surveillance cameras inside the Central Church, but did not capture what her grandfather was doing inside.
Is there something hidden in the Central Church?
Theresa thought that although she was the principal of St. Freya's Academy, her grandfather had also made a great contribution to the construction of St. Freya's Academy, and it was possible that he left some things in the academy that she didn't know about.
As for investigating at the Central Church now?
Please, grandpa must have cleaned it all up.
Theresa didn't think she could find any clues, and when she thought about it carefully, her grandfather didn't kidnap Saint Freya's people. He just took away some things he had left behind. There seemed no need to investigate further.
So, let's just put these things aside for now and pretend they never happened?
how could it be possible!
She could ignore the person who was taken away, but she couldn't pretend not to see what happened between her grandfather and her good niece.
Theresa slammed the table. She wanted to rush to the headquarters, grab her grandfather by the collar, and ask him what happened between him and his good niece, and whether her grandfather had any bad intentions towards Kiana like before.
She was like an anxious monkey, scratching her head and ears. Her good niece was inexperienced and she couldn't rule out the possibility that she had been deceived by her grandfather's sweet words.
She looked at Siegfried and swallowed back what she was about to say. She felt that letting Siegfried get involved would only complicate things, and this guy probably didn't realize what was going on between his grandfather and Kiana, just like her.
Theresa thought so.
"Anyway, it's not a big deal."
She coughed lightly twice and said, "The people Grandpa took away...there's no need to worry about them. They have nothing to do with us."
Anyway, he is not from St. Freya Academy. Even if she goes to the headquarters now, she won't be able to get a single hair back from such an illegal immigrant with no record at all.
And we can't be sure what grandpa took away was a person, maybe just something that looked like a human.
Didn't headquarters mention the device at the research institute that significantly boosted the Valkyrie's combat power? Maybe what Grandpa took away was an antique left at the academy.
"is it?"
Since Theresa said so, Siegfried naturally didn't delve into it. Looking at Theresa's expression, he felt that this little girl must be hiding something from him, but it shouldn't be a big deal. "Then I'll go back to work now."
Siegfried scratched his head. Speaking of which, the surveillance camera probably couldn't record any sound. Maybe his previous conversations with Otto were also recorded.
He felt a little guilty, after all, he had reconciled with Otto without telling Theresa.
However, compared to hiding the fact that Otto and Kiana had contact, the reconciliation was a trivial matter. Siegfried was worried that Theresa would find out his flaw, so he slipped away as fast as he could.
Watching Siegfried leave, Theresa shook her head in disappointment.
Siegfried, you idiot, your house is about to be robbed, do you know that?
Kiana, who usually has such an eccentric father, might be attracted to a calm man like her grandfather. Theresa thought that she should hint at it and ask Siegfried to pay more attention to Kiana.
Theresa turned the surveillance back to the part where Otto and Kiana were walking together. She supported her chin with one hand and stared at them. Thanks to the clear surveillance camera, she could even see what her grandfather said and the shy expression on Kiana's face.
So happy, little Kiana.
After reading it over and over again several times, it was already afternoon. Theresa picked up the communicator. She had many questions to ask her grandfather, but as soon as she picked up the communicator, she put it down again.
No.
It's hard to explain.
Theresa thought it would be better for her to go find her grandfather herself.
Otherwise, grandpa would be vague and might even hang up on me.
My eyes fell on the desk calendar. New Year's Day was approaching, and I could spare some time to go back to headquarters. So, when should I choose? Tomorrow? The day after tomorrow?
My finger slid across the date and finally stopped at the 23rd.
Christmas Eve, Christmas Day.
Let's go back to headquarters before Christmas. It's impossible to ask her to pretend not to see it, but Theresa feels that she has tried her best by waiting until next week to ask.
Of course, she didn't plan to tell her grandfather in advance that she was going back.
Theresa clapped her hands on her cheeks, a malicious smile on her face.
Well, grandpa, just wait for me, this principal is going to give you a scare!

Chapter 112 The World Snake is caught.
Shenzhou, Tianqiong City, Shencheng Pharmaceutical Branch Building.
Standing on the roof, the jackals looked out at the vast area of the northern suburbs. They planned to find an opportunity to negotiate with Shenzhou to take over this area and use it to build a large pharmaceutical industrial city.
Of course, on the surface, it was for the purpose of producing and synthesizing anti-Houkai drugs, but in reality, it was because Jackal needed a new laboratory, and Sky City was also the laboratory she chose to carry out the Stigma Project.
But if you think about it carefully, it seems unnecessary to negotiate with Shenzhou and Tianming now.
After all, the Lord is about to return, and then she can take whatever she wants.
but.
This is the best case scenario.
There was a hint of gloom between the Jackal's brows. She thought of Raven who fell into the hands of Tianming. The responsibility for Raven's capture was entirely on her. If she had not insisted on her own way, the World Serpent would not have lost its precious cadres and the Key of God.
Of course, her impulse was not without results. From the assassination of the Bishop of Destiny to the maintenance of order by the Anti-Entropy Leader, she realized that Otto and Walter Yang might be collaborating in private.
They were not completely ignorant of the World Serpent.
Not to mention, the raven is now in their hands.
The jackal took a deep breath, and the cold winter air made her brain clearer. According to research, the immortal was suspected to be in Tianming, which meant that Yu Duchen was in Tianming.
Although the cadres of the World Snake have special defenses in their heads, is it really effective for Yu Duchen?
Thinking of this, the Jackal was somewhat dissatisfied as to why the Raven did not commit suicide the first time he was captured. However, after thinking about it carefully, the Lord was about to return, and if he committed suicide on the eve of the victory of the revolution, the Jackal felt that if it were him, he would probably choose to live on.
"Master Cleo, Master Gray Snake is here."
The secretary came to inform the Jackal, who breathed a sigh of relief. After Raven was captured, she subconsciously did not choose to return to the World Serpent Headquarters in Africa, but went to Shenzhou. Or maybe it was her instinctive choice because she was worried that Tianming was secretly monitoring her.
In fact, during his time in Shenzhou, Jackal did sense the surveillance of Tianming.
The World Snake is not just there to eat and do nothing.
If they couldn't even notice this, the World Serpent would have been discovered by Destiny and Anti-Entropy long ago.
But was it information leaked from Raven, or was it just a test from Destiny?
The Jackal didn't know, but she didn't act rashly. Instead, she asked the Gray Snake to come over. If the World Snake lost another cadre, it would be a lot of fun.
"I have arranged a route so that we can leave Shenzhou tomorrow morning."
When Jackal saw Gray Snake in his office, Gray Snake said directly, without mentioning Jackal's mistake, "After you left, the Shencheng Medical Association announced that Director Cleo had died of a sudden illness tonight. Until the Lord returns, no further action should be taken."
Of course, this does not mean that the jackal does not want to be punished.
Next, the Jackal will lose her public identity and completely become a rat in the sewer.
"Yes."
The Jackal did not defend herself or argue. Although she and the Gray Snake were of the same level, anyone with a discerning eye knew that when the Lord was away, everything was subject to the Gray Snake's orders.
"Over there on the raven side..."
"I'll find a way."
Gray Snake said that although it was a pity for Raven, his main goal now was to rescue the Lord.
"Next, you will stay at headquarters and research the whereabouts of the Second Divine Key, Qianjie Yicheng."
The Gray Snake did not put all its eggs in one basket. If Anti-Entropy realized their ambition, they could also rescue the Lord through the Thousand Worlds One Vehicle.
"Yes."
The Jackal had no objection. She didn't say anything about Otto maybe just having doubts and not being sure of his identity, because as long as there was even a possibility, she would not risk her life on the possibility.
Gray Snake said nothing more, but soon after, Jackal's men came to inform him again.
"Lord Cleo, someone from Heaven has requested a meeting with you."
The jackal's heart skipped a beat and she looked at the gray snake, but he shook his head, sure that he was not being followed.
"Maybe it's a test."
Gray Snake said.
"Who is it that wants to see me?"
Jackal received the information from her subordinates, and when she saw the information, she couldn't help but frown.
"It's her."
The tone was as if he was talking to an old friend, but the Jackal and the other party had never actually exchanged a single word.
"Hua... I should call her Fu Hua now. She wants to see me."
There is a place called "Paradise of the Past" inside the World Snake, where there are traces left by thirteen heroes from the previous era. Every cadre of the World Snake needs to go to the Paradise of the Past before being appointed. As one of the thirteen heroes, a certain Red Kite Immortal, the Jackal once saw the memories left by her.
Why did destiny send her here at this time?
"…something happened."
But then, before the Jackal could make a decision, Gray Snake's mechanical prosthetic eye flashed, and he turned his head and stared at the Jackal.
"Leave now, if you delay, you won't be able to leave."
The World Snake has collected a lot of information about the Red Kite Immortal over the years, and according to the Gray Snake's analysis, Tianming has always been very cautious in using this immortal. There is no need to use a sledgehammer to kill a chicken. Once it is used, it must be a big deal.
Regardless of whether Fu Hua's arrival was a test from Tianming, it meant that Tianming was now keeping a close eye on Raven. Even if Fu Hua did not make trouble, he would definitely find a reason to stay and serve as a nail in Shencheng Medicine.
Jackal might have thought of this as well. Once Fu Hua was nailed into Shencheng Medical, it would be difficult for her to escape. She gave orders to her subordinates without hesitation, telling Fu Hua that she was seriously ill and would not see guests.
"Shencheng Pharmaceuticals had no choice but to give up."
Gray Snake said that he did not comfort the Jackal. Shencheng Medicine could be said to be the Jackal's hard work, but the Jackal did not feel any pity. She was a leader similar to Cocolia, and they were unexpectedly cruel.
However, what I have lost, I will take back everything when the Lord returns, and I will also charge interest.
Of course, the Jackal's unrestrainedness is due to Kevin's strength.
But before the order was given for long, the Jackal heard a roar coming from downstairs.
"Valkyrie! Destiny's Valkyrie!"
After being informed that the Jackal was seriously ill, Fu Hua, who arrived as a messenger, attacked the building without hesitation. At the same time, outside the building, hundreds of Valkyries launched an attack at the same time. For a while, the lower floors were in chaos, and the noise was getting closer and closer to the upper floors.
"Death Weaver! Venom Weaver! All Death Weavers and Venom Weavers in the basement, move out!"
The Jackal remained calm and gave orders. Death Weaver and Venom Weaver were spider-shaped biological weapons she developed specifically to hunt Valkyries. She didn't expect them to come in handy so soon.
However, as biological weapons, they actually have a weakness.
"With Yu Duchen here, we won't be able to hold out for long."
