Chapter: 5393
"Eurober's heart was slightly disappointed but he still nodded his head: 'Alright then, I'll choose Lin Wan'er's line.'"
"In reality, Eurober was more inclined to choose the Cavalry Regiment line, since that line had a certain degree of excitement. If they couldn't find any clues in Northern Europe, they could try their luck in Cyprus."
"However, Lin Wan'er's line had no such prospects."
"Lin Wan'er was essentially gone from this world and she might have gone to any place in the other world. This line was so difficult to follow that it was like reaching for the sky."
"He let Cloud like song choose first because he had always had some ideas about her, wanting to pair up with a companion who would bring him joy. Although he didn't have any means of pairing up, finding someone as strong and capable as Cloud like song was still a worthwhile investment."
"It was precisely for this reason that he didn't want to choose Lin Wan'er's line but seeing that Cloud like song had chosen another, he had no other choice but to accept it."
"Just then, Cloud like song let out a sigh and said: 'Alright then, the Cavalry Regiment line will be left for Duan Gong. I'll go check out Lin Wan'er's.'"
"Ober Lord was astonished and asked, 'How did you change your mind, Duan Gong? Lin Wan'er's line is really hard to search!'"
"Cloud like song chuckled and said, 'It's indeed hard to search and there's no clue either. However, it's precisely because of this that I can go wherever I want and take my chances, traveling freely and having a good time.'"
Ober Lord's face lit up with joy and he raised his thumb in praise, saying, "Great! Duan Gong, you're truly great! Since that's the case, let me search for the Cavalry Regiment line then."
Cloud like song was well aware of Ober Lord's intentions, daily flaunting what kind of lady to prioritize in front of him, but in reality, she had no intention of indulging his whims.
She didn't feel like getting involved with him either and didn't want to owe him a favor. Since he wanted to search for the Cavalry Regiment line, let him go ahead and do so. She wasn't interested in stealing any credit, and it was fine to take this opportunity to travel around and gain some experience.
So she told Ober Lord, 'Since you've chosen the Cavalry Regiment line, I'll just part ways with you here. Wish you good luck.'"
She then prepared to get off at the next stop.
Ober Lord hurriedly said, 'Duan Gong, we're not at the village or town yet, what are you doing getting off here? Why don't we go together to Bergman and find some clues when we get there? I'll look for them at the airport, and you can search around the harbor. The English lord probably thinks Lin Wan'er will likely take a boat, so you can follow up along the harbor and maybe find something valuable.'"
Cloud like song didn't bother with him, and instead just walked straight out, then ran her fingers through her long hair, laughing carelessly. "What's the difference between searching for a boat and following a fish?" she said. "I'm not going to waste my energy on that."
Ober Lord stood beside her, asking, "Duan Gong, do you have any ideas now?"
Cloud like song laughed. "I don't have any ideas, but since Lin Wan'er disappeared here, maybe we can find some clues nearby. So I'll just stay around for a few days and see if I can find anything. Ober Lord is going to Bergman, so let's hurry up and get there before he wastes his time here."
Ober Lord was helpless, saying, "Okay, I'll go to Bergman airport first and look for some clues. The plane took the Cavalry Regiment straight to Bergman airport, so I'll follow the trail back to see what they went through. If Ober Lord doesn't leave Bergman within a few days, we can still spend a few more days together."
Cloud like song spoke seriously. "I don't advise you to waste too much time in Bergman. Instead, let's go to Cyprus and ask Lin Wan'er's relatives about her situation."
"Don't rush," Ober Lord said, knowing that Cloud like song might not want to interact with him too much, but he wanted to hang around her for a few more days. "I think the Cavalry Regiment itself shouldn't have any major issues. It's likely that they were discovered by the enemy beforehand and annihilated, just like what happened in New York. So there should be more clues here, and going to Cyprus wouldn't make much sense."
Cloud like song shrugged her shoulders, thinking to herself, "You're finally getting a break from your daily routine, but you still want to stick with me and do who-knows-what? It's fine for us to part ways and go our separate ways. I'm planning to meet up with you after we've gone our own way, then head to Eastern Europe to take a look around. Why are you staying here?"
Although Cloud like song was very dissatisfied with Ober Lord, she saw that he wouldn't be leaving Northern Europe anytime soon, so she had to temporarily stay in Northern Europe and deal with him. She knew Ober Lord's character well; if he found out she left Northern Europe directly, he might report back to the English lord that she was slacking off, which would only annoy the English lord.
It's different from just complaining casually; if it's actually put into action, it'll be considered a grave offense in front of the English lord.
So, she decided to stay in Northern Europe for a few more days, waiting until Ober Lord left before leaving herself, so as not to fall into his trap. JrNovels.com
