Chapter 700: Coral Can Speak Chinese
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Someone wanted to buy information for a large sum of money, but they were met with a torrent of abuse from the old lady. Someone wanted to threaten them, but the old lady was unyielding. In short, she was fearless.
To be honest, Patrick from the Black Hand was a pain to deal with. He had announced that he would chase after Coral, but now Coral had run away with someone else. This was very embarrassing.
Thus, he wanted to find Lu Shu and Coral. He wanted to tell Coral that long distance relationships would not last long. That person from the Heavenly Network would definitely not stay in Europe. Compared to that person, he would be geographically closer to her.
Furthermore, as long as Coral agreed, he would move to Sweden.
When his subordinates in the Black Hand heard their boss repeating himself again and again, they could even repeat what he had said word for word. This overthrew the beliefs of underground organizations… so, if they took the girl away, would all this be over?
Patrick even said, “What do you know? I can’t defeat Coral either!”
He had even wanted to properly explain to Coral that since then, he had never hit on other females. Even when he ate chicken, he would not touch female chickens!
All the organizations, no matter whether they had already reached Sardinia, or were just observing the situation, all wanted to know where the two of them had gone.
But this was not their home ground. Most of the people who had come were experts, who had brought dozens of people along with them. The Department of Faith Theory had even made preparations in advance, thus they were able to assemble so many people. They were definitely not in a favorable situation!
Logically, if they wanted to obtain information, they would go find the local thugs. No matter whether they bought the information or traded items for it, they would definitely be able to obtain something.
But the local thugs in Sardinia were the Cartel. This group of Metahumans even performed tricks. What kind of information did you expect them to have?!
But as they were about to take the civilians away and extort information by torture, the leader of the Cartel suddenly appeared and released the civilians. Everyone finally realized that the old lady in the train was the mother of the Cartel’s leader. She had taken this train with her close friends to watch her son organize a music festival in the north!
The large organizations were rendered speechless by the Cartel. What kind of organization was this?! Was everyone in Sardinia crazy?!
No wonder this old lady was so strong-willed!
But the large organizations did not expect that the Cartel had never established an information network. No one was officially in charge of information in the entirety of Sardinia. But all the civilians were their informers.
Typical organizations would never think of this, as they were of a higher class than ordinary civilians. They completely ignored the civilians. But on Sardinia, things were different.
The Metahumans in the Cartel saw themselves as ordinary people. They were friends with the rest of the civilians. Thus, the civilians were willing to talk to the Cartel about any signs of disturbance or trouble.
Overnight, all the civilians on the island knew the reason why the couple was being hunted down. The large organizations had their eye on the part of the World Tree that Coral possessed, which was her Gungnir.
This form of information dissemination was very odd. The information seemed to have come from an official source, as none of the locals doubted its authenticity. If it was said by the officials, then it must be true. The word started to spread until everyone on the island knew about this…
The civilians on the island seemed to be bound by hatred for a common enemy. The shops in the southern cities, where the Department of Faith Theory and the Black Hand were, started to put up their shutters.
The civilians on Sardinia did not make a huge fuss. They either watched a performance at the circus or on the streets. They did not operate their businesses.
Some organizations suddenly had nothing to eat…
Everyone was dumbfounded!
When the organizations went to other cities and asked the locals whether they had seen a couple pass by, the civilians almost spat in their faces…
But they could not simply kill civilians. If they did so, they would not just cause trouble on the island. Li Xianyi might even bring a few people from the Golden Foundation to observe them…
Lu Shu donned a black hat and pushed the wheelchair, where Coral was sitting on. Her smile was like a flower in full bloom. The two of them strolled through the streets of Oristano.
That night, Lu Shu carried Coral on her back and left. This was like a turn of fate. Back at the Collection of Gods fortress, Coral had carried Lu Shu on her back too.
The members of the Department of Faith Theory in Oristano were down to their final few men. Coral’s condition continued to deteriorate. Lu Shu wanted to let Coral rest here for two days before heading north.
All of the organizations thought that he had brought Coral away. They did not think that they would still be taking a stroll here.
Even if they knew, it would be very difficult for them to find them, as overnight, all the residents of Sardinia were protecting Lu Shu and Coral.
Everyone admired Lu Shu’s actions. When countless of organizations were trying to covet Coral, he single-handedly brought Coral out of the danger zone. Many mothers wanted to break this couple up and introduce their own daughters to Lu Shu!
“Lu Shu, there’s ice cream there.” Coral raised her hand and pointed at a shop. Her face was full of happiness and warmth, as if she was not worried about her own condition.
Lu Shu pushed her towards the shop. He asked, “What flavor do you want?”
Coral said two words, but Lu Shu could not understand either of the words. He was very smart, but he did not know all the words in the world. There were definitely words that he had never heard before.
Coral repeated herself. “Vanilla and durian.”
Lu Shu was dumbfounded, as this time, Coral spoke in Chinese. Although her pronunciation was slightly off, but there was no doubt that it was Chinese.
Coral blushed slightly. “I started learning Chinese a long time ago. I even had a Chinese teacher. But I have never learned how to make Chinese dishes. The dishes that my teacher made were horrible…”
Lu Shu suddenly realized that all along, Coral had been preparing to go to China for him.
As for why she wanted to go to China, Lu Shu felt that it would be silly for him to ask.
At this moment, the two of them were still not lovers. No one had taken down the pieces of paper stuck on the window. It was like a game of tacit understanding. But it also seemed as if they had their own personal worries.
“So, Lu Shu, you can speak to me in Chinese in the future. You can be my Chinese teacher. Back then in the Koh Chang Island remains, you agreed to do so, but you never actually did it. Just so you know, I’m gifted in languages,” said Coral with a smile.
Lu Shu nodded his head and smiled. He turned and said to the shopkeeper, “One ice cream, please. Thank you.”
A girl was willing to learn a language for you, and was willing to learn how to cook Chinese dishes for you. Lu Shu silently looked at Coral, who was sitting on the wheelchair. He felt warm on the inside.
