Chapter 200: 85. ConfusedShe touched the little head of the water snake, but its little hand slapped hers away, and after a series of garbled cries, it transformed back into a lifeless puddle of water and merged into Moliās bathtub, disappearing without a trace.
Before she was captured by Mr. Fisher, Moli didnāt know Lord Ramasitia had such a charming side... It turned out that the Fluid Sword that Mr. Fisher wielded was a gift from Lord Ramasitia, which upset him greatly.
But why he decided to give the sword to Mr. Fisher, he didnāt say, although there must have been a profound reason.
The mist in the bathroom gradually rose, and Moli leaned her face gently against her knees alone, her beautiful profile staring at the bathroom wall, lost in thought.
She reached out gently, touched the water in the bathtub, and used the transparent water as ink to write a line of Nali language from humans on the wall. It read,
"Fisher"
After all, Moli was still just a young whale-girl species, and naturally, she didnāt know what love was. She only felt her heartbeat quicken sometimes, especially when she recalled the close proximity to Mr. Fisher, and she felt overwhelmingly shy.
It was the naive and ignorant emotion of a young girl, fragile and confusing like the tender tip of a newly sprouted lotus.
Perhaps even Lord Ramasitia couldnāt understand why she was investing such naive feelings in that human...
He was just a Divine creature, harmless and fond of sleeping at the sea floor, certainly not understanding the complex and conflicting psychology of a young girl; He only thought that Moli was not very smart, which was why he nurtured her with water.
Mr. Fisher was unaware that a young girl was about to step through the door of naive love, and he returned to his room exhausted, suspecting that members of the New Party would soon come to inquire what had happened among them in magic. Before that, he needed to sort out the matters concerning Prince Luosang and Carolina.
When he returned to his room, Carolina was already by the window, playing with a cat, still wearing Prince Luosangās clothes, her expression calm, touching the catās chin, indistinguishable from a usual lady.
It may have been the strong influence of the black hair implanted by the Witch Research Association, or perhaps she had always been that odd before the implantation.
As Mr. Fisher returned, the Nali police outside were entering Saint Nali University, and the conference building they had been in was completely sealed off. Carolina was quite worried whether she could escape safely. As soon as she saw Mr. Fisher return, she immediately spoke,
"Iāve already protected those scholars from Schwali and... that prince. How should I leave now? When Iām safe, Iāll tell you where that relic is."
She was particularly nervous, probably fearing Fisher might betray her later, so she chose to threaten Fisher using the relic of the Undead Witch.
Although Mr. Fisher began to suspect that the Undead Witch might actually be Renie, knowing more about the relic wouldnāt hurt, and it could even reveal more about the periods before the Middle Ages, such as the "All Things Warning Stone Tablet" that Elliog had mentioned before.
Mr. Fisher took off his coat and hung it on the coat rack before sitting down in a chair in the room,
"Speaking of which, although no one has died, you should technically be free to go by now. But as youāve noticed, Pink Hall is forging attacks by your Witch Research Association. Theyāll investigate everything about the Witch Research Association, and you happen to be their Artificial Witch..."
"What do you mean their Artificial Witch! I have nothing to do with them, those scum..."
"Donāt rush, the current situation is, if you want to leave, you need to ensure everyone present doesnāt speak of you not being there, otherwise the Nali officials will suspect you, the suddenly appearing waiter... I donāt have the power to keep them all silent, but, there is someone who does."
Carolina opened her mouth, then looked down at the garment draped over her, clearly guessing who Mr. Fisher was referring to,
"You mean... the prince?"
"Yes, Iāve arranged for him to meet you again. What to do, how to do it, whether you can escape or not is all up to you. Thatās all I can do for you; I canāt help in any other way."
Carolina clenched her teeth, but didnāt say anything to express her discontent, for she had already come to understand this despicable manās character rather well.
Instead, she faced Fisherās gaze with a bit of embarrassment, hesitating for a long time before she finally turned her head aside and replied in a low voice,
"Then arrange for me to meet him... But just so you know, Iām only meeting him to escape this rotten situation quickly, I donāt like men... or anything like that."
"Mm-hmm."
Fisher replied nonchalantly, not caring about her tough talk, while casually touching the Demi-human Girls Completion Manual in his pocket, which was what truly concerned him.
Now that the incident was over, and Jasmineās identity had almost been fully exposed, it was a perfect time to bind Jasmine to research the Whale-man Species; he was also curious about the ecology of the sea floor and her purpose for coming ashore... However, due to the previous incidents with Jasmine, Fisher now had to postpone the research date; it would be better to cool off the awkwardness between them before proceeding.
After all, he was conducting research, and if he frightened her, creating a sense of resistance, then it would be difficult to obtain anything from her; moreover, Fisher also felt that the incidents were his fault.
However, Fisher always felt that Carolina was just being tough-mouthed; he unilaterally believed that Carolina was no match for that guy Luosang, and predicted that within a few days, she would be left with nothing but her tough mouth...
But this was no longer Fisherās concern. Once she disclosed the location of the Witchās Relics to him, they would go their separate ways, at most he would send some gifts later if they had children...
Speaking of which, Fisher recalled the question Prince Luosang had asked him earlier. Driven by curiosity and a sense of responsibility towards Prince Luosang, he similarly turned to Carolina and asked,
"Thereās one thing Iām curious about, youāre an Artificial Witch, but you werenāt female before. So now, are you any different from real women, or are you just wearing a womanās shell?"
"Huh? Of course not, Iām... Iām no different from other women."
For some reason, upon hearing Fisherās question, she seemed somewhat frightened, covering her body as she blushed and stepped back, warily asking,
"What are you up to, what bad things do you plan to do?"
"Nothing, just curious."
Fisher drew a stack of paper vouchers from the drawer, randomly selecting two and handing them to Carolina, saying,
"Alright, these are universal theatre vouchers issued by the school; you can use this to watch plays at the Saint Nali Opera House for free, anytime. Iāll inform Prince Luosang to meet you there tomorrow night... You can arrange the rest yourself."
"Huh? Why meet at the theatre..."
Fisher didnāt answer her, as faint footsteps were already being heard at the door; he raised his index finger to his lips in a "shushing" gesture and signaled her to hide. Carolina, holding the voucher in annoyance, ducked into the bathroom, and then Fisher went to open the door.
A smiling maid stood at the door. It turned out to be the managerial maid assigned to the faculty residence. She slightly bowed her head with a smile and said to Fisher,
"Mr. Fisher, itās like this, the Nali police downstairs have asked you to come down for a moment; it seems they need to make a record of a case or something..."
"I see, I understand. Let me change my clothes and Iāll come down."
"Very well."
Taking advantage of this moment, Fisher returned to his room to fetch another coat from the wardrobe. As he headed to the door and looked toward the bathroom, its window was open, but the figure of the Artificial Witch Carolina was no longer to be seen.
