The two subordinates behind Xiao Ya exchanged glances.0
Did she say Mr. Ke Muning?0
She did mention Mr. Ke Muning, right?0
Yes, she definitely did!0
How could this person be the master's goddaughter?0
Xiao Ya suddenly turned around. Not wanting them to slip up, she took the initiative and asked in German, "Does Ke Muning have other goddaughters? That's outrageous!"0
Xiao Ya spoke with an angry expression.0
The two subordinates felt their scalps tingle.0
What should they do? She's angry?0
They had never had to comfort a young girl before!0
How should they console her?0
Even if their master were here, he might not be able to handle this well!0
This uncertainty pushed back everything else they wanted to say, leaving them only able to stammer, their lips moving wordlessly before finally squeezing out: "We'll... we'll call the master to ask."0
Edith suddenly interjected, "Was that German?"0
Xiao Ya lifted her chin slightly, nodding proudly.0
Edith smiled and said, "I know a little bit too."0
Really? Or just pretending?0
Xiao Ya remained unfazed and said, "Oh? Then repeat what we just said."0
Edith's eyes flickered.0
Weren't Chinese people supposed to be modest and reserved? Especially Chinese girls, who should be completely opposite to foreign girls.0
This one was truly arrogant.0
A thousand times more arrogant than Qin Yue had ever been!0
"Were you asking them to call home?" Edith asked.0
So she could only understand scattered words.0
Xiao Ya felt slightly relieved.0
If Qin Yue could understand the dialect, their future conversations would be even more secure.0
Xiao Ya continued in German to Edith: "Whose property is this? Your family's? What's fun to do here?"0
Edith's expression stiffened slightly: "Are you asking what's fun to do?"0
But quickly someone behind her said: "She also asked whose property this is?"0
Xiao Ya then said another phrase in German: "DiebstahlversicherungetwinRatenabzahlen."0
This time no one responded.0
This wasn't a complete sentence, but rather a string of financial vocabulary.0
It showed that when slightly more technical words were used, they couldn't understand at all.0
Finally satisfied with her test, Xiao Ya felt completely at ease.0
Edith watched her, eyes flickering, feeling very displeased while also becoming alert.0
This Chinese girl was extremely guarded; she was testing to see if they could understand.0
Such a person... Edith felt hesitant.0
But then Xiao Ya lifted her chin again, looking down her nose at them, and snorted, "So you really can't understand. What was that about knowing German?"0
The bullet had grazed past her feet, leaving a smoking hole in the ground.0
Xiao Ya stepped back half a step: "Using people as targets? That's illegal."0
"Can't handle it?" Edith finally felt like she had regained control of the situation.0
She shrugged: "But you've already broken local laws. The law states that minors can't enter bars."0
She paused, then continued: "If my hand were to slip, and I accidentally killed this girl. You're at the scene, you'd be implicated too.0
Then your family would have to rush over here because you're being prosecuted... Your studies would be interrupted, and there are many other consequences. Do you need me to continue?"0
"Wondering what to do?" Edith moved closer, "Let me tell you what to do."0
"Here, some people always have special privileges."0
"If you join us, your studies and life here will be very smooth, even teachers will fear you..."0
Xiao Ya naturally thought of what she had seen before - "Brotherhood?"0
Edith paused: "You've heard of it? Well, yes, I heard there are many rumors about brotherhoods in your country. But we're not a brotherhood, we're a sisterhood."0
"Now, tell me, which Chinese family's daughter are you?" Edith coaxed.0
"My brother is the Chief Inspector," Xiao Ya said briefly.0
Edith's eyes lit up.0
Currently serving?0
Even better!0
Qin Yue looked confused. Was she making this up? Where did she get a brother who was Chief Inspector?0
"So we're friends now?" Edith asked proactively.0
Xiao Ya thought briefly, then said: "That depends on what other interesting things you have."0
Edith was surprised: "Isn't what we've shown enough?"0
Xiao Ya took the gun from her hand.0
Edith was caught off guard, her expression changing slightly: "You..."0
Xiao Ya expertly loaded the gun and pulled the trigger.0
"Bang—"0
The bullet hit the mural on the wall, right between the eyes of the woman in the painting.0
That painting was Edith's self-portrait.0
Xiao Ya said: "This, I've played with long ago."0
Everyone else instantly fell silent.0
Was she really a Chinese child?0
Aliali: 6748677cc4f3f33ac4783886
Qin Yue was also stunned.0
Outside the door.0
The subordinates were trying to call Ke Muning.0
"No signal?"0
"Looks like they've installed special signal jammers here."0
The subordinates spoke while maintaining perfectly neutral expressions. They were used to others blocking signals before going in to take care of people.0
They'd picked the wrong ancestors to play this trick on.0
They took out a device and pressed a switch... Ten minutes later, the signal blocking was disabled.0
They eagerly redialed Ke Muning's number: "Sir, do you have a second goddaughter?"0
"The young miss is very angry now," they reported honestly.0
