On the surface, they appear to be organizations whose mission is to maintain world peace, but in fact, Kama Taj and S.H.I.E.L.D. are completely different.

The former is an organization established by a group of hermits who gather together and are aloof from the world.

Anything that will harm the world will be dealt with no matter who it is, and anything that will not harm the world will not interfere with it, no matter how dangerous it seems. The actions of mages will never be based on secular legal principles.

The latter, while seemingly maintaining an independent stance, is actually unable to escape the intervention and influence of politicians.

After all, the predecessor of S.H.I.E.L.D., the Strategic Science Corps founded by Howard, was itself an organization built with the help of the US military.

What's more, there is a poisonous snake hiding deep in SHIELD.

Their natures are completely different, so Shi Xiaolei's attitude towards these two forces is naturally also different.

No, on Natasha's side, she tried every possible means to find out the information, but finally got nothing. With Daniel, Shi Xiaolei took the initiative to tell it without him asking.

"This is what happened..." Because so, so and so. After taking some time, Shi Xiaolei told Daniel his thoughts.

“…….”

Daniel didn't answer for a long time, just staring at Shi Xiaolei. After about half a minute, Daniel sighed, smiled helplessly and shook his head: "Man, let's not say whether I can do it. Even if I can, you Do you think it’s appropriate?”

"Huh?" A little surprised, Shi Xiaolei blinked blankly.

"His status, his status." Seeing that Shi Xiaolei didn't understand, Daniel could only say it clearly: "Man, that is our Kama Taj's unique patent. You just talk in vain, and as soon as you talk, you want to... ...Although we are friends, this time, man, you did go a little too far, you know?”

"Uh~."

When Daniel said this, Shi Xiaolei suddenly woke up and realized what was wrong.

really……

Why should people agree to this request? Is it just based on the friendship Bayonetta has accumulated after being ‘employed’ for a long time by placing orders with Karma Taj? Or is it that his relationship with Gu Yi is close enough that he can talk to her casually and ask for benefits?

Let’s talk about Bayonetta’s contribution to Kama Taj first.

It is true that Bayonetta's help took a lot of pressure off of Ancient One, and the number of mages who went into battle was also much lower than before. But if you think about it carefully, the reason why Bayonetta went to help eliminate the monsters was entirely because she needed the souls of the monsters as sacrifices. The demons who were sacrificed to her contract were not there to help the mages.

The mages of Karma Taj are responsible for finding prey for Bayonetta. In turn, Bayonetta is responsible for fighting and helping the mages to deal with monsters that they cannot handle. This is a mutually beneficial cooperative relationship in which both parties get something, and there is no question of who suffers and who takes advantage.

What's more, Ancient One took the initiative and opened up Karma Taj's collection of books to Bayonetta, allowing her to learn many new spells, and also gave her several items including the Hanging Ring and Settorak's Crimson Magic Belt. Magic props. The little contribution she made in giving fighting lessons to the mage apprentices at Kama Taj could not offset the benefits that Ancient One had given her.

Calculating the inside and outside...

Bayonetta paid more? From an objective point of view, we really can’t say that.

Let’s look at the friendship between his family and Gu Yi.

They are familiar with each other, but apart from Bayonetta, they don't seem to have much contact, let alone the deeper interests and gains and losses.

If you can say that you are as close to Stark as your best friends at the same table, then your friendship with Karma Taj is probably equivalent to that of a classmate who you have met several times in the corridor. With such little affection, why should I ask someone to 'borrow money'?

The more he thought about it, the more embarrassed he felt. Shi Xiaolei couldn't help but suppress a big blush: "I was the one who was rude, so what, Daniel, I'm sorry..."

"In terms of personal relationships, we can be considered friends. If you just want to ask me for a favor, that's fine." Daniel nodded and sighed seriously: "As for what you just said...man, It’s not that I don’t give you face, it’s just that it’s really inappropriate.”

"I know, I know." Shi Xiaolei scratched his head and laughed awkwardly: "I didn't notice it before, thanks to you for reminding me. Well... thank you, Daniel."

"Why are you thanking me?" Daniel shook his head and said with a smile: "As long as you don't blame me. What I said just now was a bit harsh. Man, you don't mind, do you?"

"No, no."

Under Daniel's reminder, Shi Xiaolei saw the facts clearly. As he spoke, Shi Xiaolei had given up the idea of ​​asking the mages to help set up the fixed-point teleportation array.

But what surprised him was that after he gave up asking for help and returned to the manor, within a few hours, when it got dark at night...

In the manor, it is about three hundred meters away from the main house, separated by a windbreak, and on the beach on the sea side.

Being deceived by Saratoga's sweet words, Kangna came forward and proposed to Shi Xiaolei, "Go to the beach to enjoy the shade and have barbecue at the same time." As a result, what was originally an ordinary dinner turned into a dinner on the beach. Open air barbecue party.

Since it's a party, there's no need to take it so seriously.

In addition, he hadn't been back for a while, and all the work in the manor fell on the maids. He felt that it would be quite hard for them to stay behind, so Shi Xiaolei simply made the scale a little bigger, including the maids and the minions. We called together and planned to organize a house party that everyone could participate in.

The reputation of raising the maid skills to the full level has been regarded as an idol by the maids headed by Cinderella, and has become the teacher they want to ask for advice. At this moment, she was leading her sister to fight back, and several maids were setting up the venue in an orderly manner.

Under the temporary shed, Lexington and Yixian were preparing ingredients. Just like the reputation and counterattack side, there are also several maids here to help them.

As for Shi Xiaolei, he was unloading dry firewood from the battery cart driven by the maid...Whether it was a barbecue fire or a bonfire simply lit to increase the atmosphere, firewood was used. Speaking of which, among all the people on the beach, his job was the most tiring.

"Xiaolei Xiaolei, do you want my help?" She didn't know whether it was out of filial piety or because she wanted to join in the fun, but Kangna suddenly ran in front of Shi Xiaolei.

Wearing a very cute swimsuit and a pair of small flip-flops, Kang Na's round face looked very cute, but Shi Xiaolei was not willing to let her do hard work.

"No, no, no." He knelt down and let Kangna give her a glass of cool juice. Shi Xiaolei patted the little girl's arm lovingly: "Go and play, I'll get it done right away. Here, wait over there. With you."

Looking in the direction of Shi Xiaolei's finger, not far away, Saratoga was waving in this direction.

Although they have not known each other for a long time, Kangna and Saratoga have already become good friends because they both like to play. No, seeing Saratoga waving to her, a happy smile immediately appeared on Kangna's little face.

After looking at Saratoga and then Shi Xiaolei, after hesitating for a moment, the little girl made a choice: "Then I'll go over."

"go Go."

Watching Kangna run towards the beach, and was about to walk towards the pile of firewood that had not yet been set up, suddenly, Shi Xiaolei stopped again - right behind Saratoga, almost twenty meters away On the beach, an orange-red halo appeared.

Thinking that Hela, who lived next door, heard the commotion, she brought sisters Susan and Emma over to join in the fun. But the next second, the figure walking out of the portal made him involuntarily show a surprised expression.

How could it be her?

Putting down the firewood in his hand, Shi Xiaolei stepped forward with full surprise.

Faster than Shi Xiaolei's reaction, Saratoga had already turned around, and the man who suddenly appeared in the conflict put on a vigilant posture...

Some people may want to ask, didn't you say that you used the portal when you came back to New York? Now that we have seen the portal opened by Bayonetta, why does Saratoga have such a big reaction now?

The reason is very simple. The portal that Bayonetta opened was pink, but the circle of light that appeared in front of her now was orange. Although the uses of the two are the same, there is still a big difference in appearance.

Saratoga did not realize that the visitor might be an acquaintance.

In addition, it is also a matter of habit... For the ship girls who live in another world, they have long been accustomed to being cautious. After all, their enemies in that world, that is, the people in the deep sea fleet, are actually a group of guys who look similar to the ship girls, but are full of differences in details.

In other words, ship girls have long been accustomed to using the principle of "generally the same, but there are some differences in details" to distinguish between ourselves and the enemy, and the halo of light that now appears in front of them precisely satisfies this principle.

"Who is it?" Not only did Saratoga show his posture, he even summoned his own ship suit with great vigilance and switched himself to combat mode.

"Hey, hey~! Saratoga, don't be nervous~!"

He ran over in three steps and two steps at a time. He first stopped Saratoga, who claimed to be his sister-in-law every day, and gave her a reassuring smile. Then, Shi Xiaolei turned around and raised his hand to say hello: "Hello, "Master Gu Yi."

"Brother-in-law, are you an acquaintance?" he asked while looking at Gu Yi carefully. After two or three seconds, Saratoga put down his posture and removed his ship's equipment.

'Fortunately, he is bald and not threatening. ’

If he could hear what Saratoga was murmuring in his heart, Shi Xiaolei would definitely not be able to help but give her a brain-destroying backhand.

"We're old acquaintances." He patted Saratoga's arm and told her, "You go have fun, I'll take care of you." Shi Xiaolei stepped forward with a smile on his face: "Master Gu Yi, why are you here? Are you looking for Bayonetta? She is over there..."

"I'm here to find you." Ancient One replied with a smile and a shake of his head.

"Eh?" A little surprised, Shi Xiaolei stood there blankly and blinked in confusion.

"Is there anything to drink?" Glancing at the shed not far away, Gu Yi walked over as if he were a visiting neighbor, feeling very comfortable. As she walked, she smiled at Shi Xiaolei: "I heard that you just went to the temple and chatted with Daniel for a long time?"

"Uh, oh." Recalling what happened a few hours ago, Shi Xiaolei had a guess in his mind: "Yes, Master Gu Yi, it was because of that incident..."

"Absolutely." Gu nodded: "I originally thought you would let Bayonetta open a portal and come directly to Kama Taj to find me. Unexpectedly, you went to the New York Temple."

"...So, you already knew that I would come to find you?"

"No." Gu Yi shook his head: "Daniel told me what happened. What I just meant was that I didn't expect you to do that with your personality. After all, you have always been very direct, bypassing Daniel and coming to me directly. It’s more in line with your usual style, isn’t it?”

"Uh..." It turned out that it was not what he imagined. When he heard Gu Yi's answer, Shi Xiaolei felt suddenly relieved.

While talking, the two of them had arrived under the shed and stood in front of the table with the thermos bucket.

"Hello, Master Gu Yi." Yixian came up to her with a smile, and without Gu Yi having to say anything, he first gave her a glass of freshly made iced watermelon juice: "Long time no see, how are you doing lately?"

"It's good, but it's a bit boring to stay on the mountain all the time." Gu Yi smiled and thanked him first, and then winked at Yixian again: "No, I have nothing to do, so I came out to walk around, but it turned out that Then I came to your house. It’s a little unexpected, do you mind?”

"Of course not." Yixian shook his head: "Master Gu Yi, we are preparing dinner. If you have nothing to do, let's eat together."

"Then you're welcome." Gu Yi smiled and nodded: "To tell you the truth, there are not many people here who know how to cook. Every day it's either porridge or noodles, and it's rare to even eat rice. It's a rare opportunity today. , I'm ready for a big meal. Oh, there are crabs, they are so big, can you leave some claws for me? I like to eat crab claws the most."

"Okay, how do you like it cooked, steamed or..."

"Everything is fine, just a little bit..." Gu Yi raised his hand and pointed at the bottles and cans placed in the basket on the corner of the table: "Don't make it too spicy. I've been getting a little angry lately, so I don't dare to eat too spicy food."

"Okay, I know."

Hou stood aside and waited for Gu Yi and Yixian to finish talking before Shi Xiaolei spoke to her again and asked: "Master Gu Yi, you just said...that you came here because of that incident in the afternoon?"

"yes."

"That is to say..." With some expectation and some confusion, Shi Xiaolei asked: "You agree?"
