How come I was the one being targeted?

His thoughts were interrupted by a scream. Bai Jun immediately looked up and saw the robin rushing towards him anxiously.

..............

"So that's how it is. Mr. Potio saw Mr. Bai Jun sneaking around the villa, writing something down on paper, and muttering dangerous things, so he mistook him for an assassin?"

After explaining everything, the robin, having figured out the whole story, suddenly laughed out loud and looked at Bai Jun with some joy: "Mr. Bai Jun, do you have any explanation?"

Bai Jun felt his cheeks burning with embarrassment and quietly covered half of his face. After all, everything Portio said was true, especially when he was talking to himself due to his occupational disease. There was no way to refute it, but he still said stubbornly:

"Gu... How can you say I'm sneaking around? Besides, I'm acting aboveboard, right?"

"Mr. Bai Jun blushed. He really feels guilty, doesn't he?"

"Tsk..." Bai Jun looked away guiltily.

"My dear, I've never had my gun confiscated in my entire life." After sitting on the ground for a long time and finally recovering, Potio rubbed his aching nose and stood up while muttering.

"I'm sorry, I did a lot of strange things that might have led to misunderstandings."

Bai Jun ignored this strange habit that made people want to complain. After apologizing, he bent down and picked up the pistol on the ground for Potio. After spinning it with his fingertips, it fell steadily into his hand.

"Oh! It's okay. I like people from Xianzhou anyway. You're a good guy, and like me, you're a quiet knight who only expresses his opinions with the gun in his hand! Haha! We can definitely become good brothers!"

Portio casually put the revolver back into the magazine at his waist, walked up to him with a bright smile, put his arm around his shoulders, accepted the apology, and didn't mind the fact that Bai Jun had pressed him to the ground and rubbed him.

Looking at the two who had reconciled, the robin felt relieved and introduced himself to Bai Jun, "By the way, Mr. Bai Jun, this Mr. Potio is also my escort on this trip. He saved my life on the planet we last stopped on."

"Well, I was originally going there to deal with the Annihilation Gang, and saving you was just a matter of convenience. Facts have proven that I didn't save the wrong person."

Poteo waved his hand nonchalantly, recalling some fragments of the past.

The previous stop of the concert tour was in a war-torn area. Both sides temporarily stopped the war out of consideration for Robin's identity, and then the family's spaceship took the opportunity to deliver some relief supplies to the people who lost their homes in the war.

However, these actions have drawn the hatred of the Annihilation Gang. These madmen who believe in destruction claim to "destroy" loyal servants, but they can never escape the slavery of their own desires. Some of them take pleasure in slaughtering, absorbing the joy of blood and flesh; some use plunder as a pretext to cover up their original intention of revenge; and some simply want to calm their inner madness through endless destruction...

These chaotic desires were mixed in various war-torn areas, and the melody of Tongxie undoubtedly destroyed the best breeding ground for their rampant growth, so a riot against the concert singers occurred.

In the midst of the chaotic battle, a hunting bullet saved the robin from being persecuted.

After the storm settled, the robin somehow found Potio herself. Although he repeatedly emphasized that he did not need any reward, he could not resist her determination. After hearing that her next stop would be the fairy ship Luofu, Potio took the initiative to propose that the robin take him to Luofu as a reward.

The reason is simple...

Because Potio had long wanted to visit his hometown, but the entry procedures for the Immortal Boat were too complicated, and it was difficult for him, a sea patroller with no identity, to enter directly. Now that he had the opportunity, he thought about visiting Luofu.

Chapter 70: The Speed ​​of Familiarity Between Men (4k2)

After the misunderstanding was resolved, the three of them walked into the villa. In the living room was a table made of precious wood, and next to it was a precious wooden chair made of the same wood.

After Robin sat down, Helen elegantly brought three cups of brewed black tea and handed them over respectfully one by one. However, when she smelled the faint scent of alcohol coming from Portio, she couldn't help revealing a hint of disgust on her well-mannered face.

"Speaking of which, where did Mr. Poteo go just now?"

The robin was very sensitive to Helen's abnormality and spoke in time to divert Poteo's attention.

"Oh! I was so bored staying in Shen Ce Mansion just now, so I just went to a bar to try some wine. Although the taste is a bit light, they actually have 'Bart 17 Years' produced in the Kavalan Star Region, and it's even aged in a sherry cask!"

When the topic of alcohol comes up, Portio immediately talks enthusiastically about the wonderfulness of "Bart 17 Years", especially after adding Lao Shi phosphorescent tracer, the taste is almost as good as popping candy.

The robin didn't understand these things, but he clapped his hands in agreement, thinking it was very impressive. Bai Jun, who was standing next to him, frowned in surprise, as if he was curious to hear that there were people in the world who would eat dumplings with ketchup.

"Hey, that tastes really good! Brother, if there's a chance, I'll take you to try it too."

"I don't drink, please allow me to refuse."

Bottiou excitedly hugged Bai Jun's neck, wanting to share the wonderful taste of "Bart 17 Years" with him. When the latter heard it, he immediately shook his head with an embarrassed look on his face.

"Really? Brother, you didn't drink before... But life without alcohol would lack a lot of fun. You need to try everything for the first time. Brother, would you like to reconsider?"

"Really not... I have a terrible drinking habit. If I drink too much, something bad will happen."

Seeing Bai Jun's resistance, Potio didn't feel comfortable inviting him again. After all, drinking was a matter of mutual consent, and he would never do such a despicable thing as forcing others to drink.

"Miss, it's getting late. You should rest for tomorrow's trip." Helen, who had been standing silently beside the robin, looked at the time and reminded softly.

"It's already 21:35? Sorry, I need to go to bed..."

Seeing the pocket watch in Helen's hand, the robin opened his eyes wide in surprise, then smiled gently at Bai Jun, "Mr. Bai Jun's room is next to Mr. Portio's room. You two have worked hard today, please rest as soon as possible."

So cute, she is really cute, she is worthy of being a universal idol.

After seeing Bai Jun nod in agreement, the robin stood up and left with Helen. Suddenly, only two men, Portio and Bai Jun, were left in the living room.

With no other concerns around, Potiou was no longer reserved. He took off his cowboy hat and leisurely sipped his steaming hot tea while casually putting his arm around Bai Jun's shoulders. "Speaking of which, brother, your skills are really amazing, especially the speed of that punch. It's definitely ranked among the best among us sea patrollers. You're so powerful, could you be a guard of the Divine Strategy Palace?"

"And what was that big, hot, hard gun you just pressed against my face? It feels a lot more powerful than my gun."

"Please don't use such misleading adjectives, and the key is to use them repeatedly..."

In the end, Bai Jun couldn't help but complain, and at the same time he was worried about his straightforwardness and carelessness. After all, he was in a foreign country, and he dared to ask questions about the background of someone he had just met for less than an hour. If it was Yao Qing's shadow guard, I guarantee that his bed would be full of daggers tonight.

But for some reason, he could never muster any resistance or vigilance towards Potio. Perhaps it was because this man's behavior was completely free of hypocrisy and lies, and his pure and cheerful smile always made people around him let down their guard.

But in other words, this guy can be compared with Xu Chu's nickname.

"...Its name is the Holy Judgment of Heavenly Fire."

Bai Jun did not answer his question, but summoned the Skyfire again and handed it generously to Potio, as compensation for accidentally beating him up just now.

However, Bai Jun didn't know that his actions also caused a storm in Potio's heart.

Portio looked at the black and white pistol with a gold-plated barrel in front of him and stood there for a moment, his hands hanging in the air, not knowing what to do. He didn't expect that Bai Jun would be so defenseless as to hand his weapon to others. After all, he had never seen such stupid behavior in his previous journey.

There are only two kinds of people who can do such a thing. One is a strong person who is absolutely confident in his own strength and can handle it even without weapons; the other is a person who has absolute trust in the person in front of him and does not believe from the bottom of his heart that the other person will do anything harmful to him... Maybe it's both?

But no matter what, the risk of doing something like this was still too high. Although he had a good impression of this Xianzhou man, he didn't expect that he would trust him so much!?

Having wandered the world for many years, Potio believed that he had long been accustomed to the good and evil in people's hearts, as well as the indifference of interpersonal relationships. Although there were connections between the sea patrollers, there seemed to be very few people who could truly be called friends. But now, he felt inexplicably moved in his heart.

Since someone has shown trust in him, he must repay this friendship a hundredfold. Potio stuffed his revolver into Bai Jun's arms, tears streaming down his face: "Brother, I, Potio, will always remember this kindness in my heart..."

"What nonsense are you talking about... Are you going to watch the Heavenly Fire Holy Judgment or not? If not, I'll take it back."

Bai Jun was disgusted by his crying appearance and subconsciously wanted to take back the Skyfire, but Potio was quicker and carefully took one of the guns of the Skyfire Judge with both hands.

What an awesome gun...

The moment Poteo took over the Skyfire, this thought came to his mind, but before he could observe it more carefully, a crackling sound suddenly came from the mechanical arm, and at the same time, a strong pain broke out in the nerve center. If he had to use his previous experience to describe it, it was magma.

"Wow! It's so hot, so hot, so hot! bro, does your gun recognize people?"

Flames ignited on Tianhuo's gun, and the rapidly rising temperature even made the air in the living room a little hot. Potio hurriedly returned Tianhuo, and once it was in Bai Jun's hands, Tianhuo, who had just resisted strongly, immediately became docile like a little lamb and put away the flames.

"I don't know either....."

Bai Jun was also a little confused when he saw this situation. He did not expect that the Heavenly Fire could recognize its master. Moreover, this situation seemed to be much smarter than the Suiyang Demon Sword, a precious object that only recognized strength but not people.

"Please both of you go to bed early and don't linger in the living room. I can't bear the responsibility of disturbing Miss Mockingbird's rest by making any noise."

A sigh came from the stairs. Helen, who had settled the robin, slowly came back and stared at the two people who made the noise with cold eyes. Although her words were tactful, her actual tone did not sound friendly at all.

It's fine that Xianzhou sent someone to follow the young lady, but what right did the thug in the cowboy hat have to sneak in? It's disgusting. What Mr. Sunday said is right. The light radiating from the young lady really does attract all kinds of filthy and disgusting insects...

Under the gazes of the two men, Helen sighed, buried all the constant sarcasm and complaints in her heart, and left exhausted.

"You'll get used to it. Come on, brother, go back to sleep. Tomorrow will probably be the busiest day yet, so get some rest."

Bai Jun and Potio looked at each other, and the latter shrugged indifferently. It seemed that he had long been accustomed to this woman's nervous attitude.

The first night passed peacefully. At about five o'clock the next morning, the sky outside the window was still dim, but Robin had woken up early. After washing, she sat in front of the dressing table and let the maid do her hair for her.

Looking at herself in the mirror, the robin recalled her past dreams. The etiquette teacher stood beside her, patiently teaching her all aspects of etiquette and posture management, and told her to take other people's service as a matter of course.

She was actually very tired of these things. She did not want to be a noble who was high and mighty and drove others around at will. After experiencing the past journey, she also knew more clearly that her singing was not to please the superiors, but to convey a faint hope to the weak who were stuck in the quagmire.

It's just that my brother doesn't seem to agree with my ideas...

Lost in her memories, the robin suddenly heard faint sounds of fighting coming from outside the window. She blinked and asked the maid beside her in confusion, "What's going on outside?"

"Ah, it's Lord Bai Jun and Lord Potio. They have been sparring outside since around four o'clock in the morning. Did they disturb your rest?" The maid carefully tidied her long light blue hair. After hearing her voice, she immediately responded nervously.

"A sparring match?... Those two are full of energy. Let's get ready quickly. I'm kind of eager to go out and take a look."

"Ming, understand!"

By the time Robin had finished dressing, the sky was already turning hazy white, and the competition between the two was almost coming to an end.

The two men threw down their weapons. Bai Jun, who had a moment's respite, leaned against the wall, his breathing a little disordered, while Potio collapsed to the ground as if his whole body was falling apart, gasping for fresh air.

"Huh... Bro, your baby is too exaggerated, a hexagonal warrior? It's so strong..."

Potio, who had not exercised for a while, suddenly had an idea at four o'clock in the morning and jumped out of bed. He originally planned to invite Bai Jun to have a sparring match and stretch his hands and feet, but he found that Bai Jun had gotten up earlier than him, and in the end it was he who was invited by Bai Jun to spar.

Although Potio already knew that Bai Jun was very strong, he was careless last night after all. If they had a fair fight again, he would not have lost as badly as last night.

However, the reality is that during a sparring match, he encountered a hexagonal warrior whose gun and sword skills were as strong as monsters, and he could not defeat him no matter how hard he tried!

Whether it was physical skills, spear skills, sword skills, or even dirty tricks, he could not match him. It was truly terrifying. This made him even more convinced that Bai Jun was not just a casual guard. If the average strength of the Immortal Boat was so high, the remaining pharmacists would have been extinct long ago.

"You're not bad either. You're so skilled in dirty tricks that I thought you were part of some unique group of rangers."

As a spontaneous group that shares the same destiny as the Xianzhou Alliance, they admire Lan's use of violence to fight violence, praise Lan's decisiveness in killing, believe that the kindness and justice of the universe must be upheld through personal behavior, and spread widely throughout the universe, spontaneously hunting down evil. The sea patrol rangers are such a group.

Although this is romantic, the intention is noble and the result is correct.

However, everything has two sides. Among the rangers who pursue justice, there are many who will do anything to win, and all kinds of insidious tricks are endless. In addition, most of the sea patrol rangers have rather eccentric personalities and are outliers who insist on implementing their own ideas.

This resulted in a small number of crazy people among the rangers, relying on their individual strength, lowering the reputation of the entire patrol rangers.

Bai Jun had come into contact with many crazy people of this type before, and he didn't want to have any contact with them in the future. Fortunately, the Potio in front of him was not that kind of crazy person, and his personality was much easier to get along with.

"You two are so energetic so early in the morning."

Hearing the familiar voice, Bai Jun turned his head and saw the robin coming.

She had changed into a dress specially prepared for this concert. Her upper body revealed her fair and delicate shoulders, and the light-colored skirt reached about the knees, revealing her slender legs with exquisite lines, which was very eye-catching. A light satin ribbon was wrapped around her slender waist, and on her feet were high heels that suited her beautiful legs very well.

A pair of earrings can be vaguely seen under the long light blue hair that sways with the movement.

She was not wearing any makeup, but she looked elegant and beautiful.

"Good morning, Miss Robin."

"Oh, you're up early as always, big star!"

Bai Jun nodded slightly at her, and Potio jumped up from the cold ground, picked up the cowboy hat that had fallen on the ground, calmly patted the dust off it, and put it back on his head.

"The concert will probably start at 9:30 this morning. Let's go have breakfast together, and then we'll head to the concert venue to start preparing. I'm afraid we'll have a lot to do today, so I'm sorry to bother you two."

"It's okay, it's okay. This is my and my brother's job... Uh, brother, please help me brush off the dust on my back. I can't reach it." Potio waved his hands. After realizing that he couldn't reach his back no matter what, he asked Bai Jun for help.

"Got it... Tsk, don't move!"

"It's all your fault, brother, for hitting me too hard. My precious body is in so much pain that I feel like it's falling apart... Wow!"

Seeing that the two of them had become so familiar with each other that they could even joke with each other, the robin opened his eyes slightly in surprise, wondering if he had accidentally overslept for two days.

Could this be the ancient saying of Xianzhou: "No fighting, no acquaintance"? Otherwise, why did these two become so close so quickly?

Chapter 71: Settling New and Old Grudges (4k6)

The long-awaited concert tour has finally arrived.

The circular sports field located in the bustling area of ​​​​the center of Xingcha Sea was hung with large-scale peripheral posters with Robin's personal image printed on them early on.

The streets were bustling with activity, and the number of pedestrians passing by was far greater than usual, all gathered in the square in front of the stadium.

The square's floor, composed of multicolored stone slabs and adorned with seasonal flowers, added a festive atmosphere. Looking around, while the place was bustling with activity compared to usual, it didn't feel overly noisy. The joyful clatter of pedestrians echoed like a tribute to the musical extravaganza.

A band appeared from nowhere on the street in front of the stadium, playing trumpets and clear flutes. Pinocchio men in tight suits sang along to the joyful beats of drums. The audience applauded and laughed happily at the resounding singing, which was in stark contrast to their appearance.

Under this clear blue sky, everyone has the right to enjoy the celebration on this day.

The three-day tour concert did not only have one or two singers performing on stage, but now it seemed as if everyone came for the name of Robin, and the organizers also understood this. The promotional materials displayed in the square were all Robin's personal posters.

Bai Jun couldn't help but admire the cheers that could be heard from everywhere in the square without having to prick up his ears, and seeing that almost everyone had a robin-style light sign, he felt annoyed by the noisy environment.

This was his first time attending a concert of this type. He had never liked noise before, so he was not interested in such overly lively occasions. If it weren't for the escort mission this time, even if he liked the robin's song, Bai Jun still wouldn't come to such a place.

"It's really spectacular. I didn't expect the robin to be so popular in Luofu."

Bai Jun was annoyed by the noisy atmosphere around him. He tried to suppress his anxiety and looked at Potio who was standing backstage with him in the venue.

"Is Robin getting ready backstage?"
