Chapter 18 From Which Angle?
"It's very tricky." Sevini looked at Xu Yi and frowned deeply.
"Tough?" Xu Yi looked puzzled.
Just half an hour ago, he had to go into Bonta again because he had something to do, but accidentally met Baron Billy on the road. He found that he was actually hugging a girl from somewhere and shopping with a leisurely look on his face. He was puzzled and immediately ran to the city lord's mansion to see Sevini and wanted to ask clearly.
It was three days since Sewini's car accident. After the two cars collided, although Sewini and Baron Billy were not seriously injured, Baron Billy was still taken to the City Lord's Mansion for questioning.
Xu Yi thought that apart from such a serious incident, Baron Billy would be sentenced to prison for at least a while and teach him a lesson, but he didn't expect that he could go out shopping in just three days, and he looked relaxed, not as if something had happened at all.
This made Xu Yi very puzzled.
Could it be that something so serious happened, Sevini planned to let it go so gently?
"What if I don't let it go?" Sewini sighed softly. "The next day, the Stark family sent someone to give me a compensation of 50,000 gold coins. According to the rules between the nobles, Baron Billy's most sincere apology to me. Duke Stark even apologized to his father in person, which can be said to have given me enough face. If I continue to do anything to Baron Billy, it will cause dissatisfaction among other nobles in the kingdom, and make them feel that the royal family is deliberately oppressing other nobles."
Xu Yi was stunned: "Are you wrong? Sevini. You are the dignified princess! In such a serious car accident, just a simple apology is over?"
"It's not very serious, right?" Sevini glanced at Xu Yi, but she was a little strange to Xu Yi's reaction. "I didn't even have a scratch. On the contrary, Baron Billy vomited several mouthfuls of blood at that time. Did you see it?"
"Is it good that he caused the accident first? Even if he died because of this, it was all his own responsibility, and he deserved it!" Xu Yiwei said angrily. "This guy was still drunk at that time! If he really wanted to hold him accountable, all the responsibility should be on him. I told me that a guy like him should be directly imprisoned, otherwise he would hit someone to death sooner or later!"
"Do you think I don't want to?" Sevini glanced at Xu Yi. Then he sighed helplessly. "But Xu Yi, even if he searched through all the laws of the kingdom, there was no regulation that he was sentenced after hitting a person by driving a magic motorcycle. Or to be more accurate, there is no law in the kingdom for magic motorcycles. This time he had to be forced to apologize because he hit me, His Highness, this time, if he hit an ordinary person, then even if he was killed, he still couldn't be considered intentional killing. Maybe he only needed to pay a little gold coins at most, and he didn't even need to apologize."
"This..." Xu Yi thought for a while and smiled bitterly.
That's right, magic motorcycles are a novel thing for the Kingdom of Lampari and even the entire Continent of Sines. How could a law against magic motorcycles appear?
In fact, if Baron Billy hadn't been unlucky this time, he happened to bump into the noble princess Sevini, he would have really nothing to do.
Xu Yi thought for a while and continued, "Okay. Your Highness, put aside the responsibility that Baron Billy should have taken on this matter. Don't you plan to use this matter to do anything? I think... you can even accuse Baron Billy of intentionally killing you and intending to assassinate Your Highness. This should be a very serious crime, right?"
"No." Sewini shook his head gently. "I understand what you mean, but... it's not the time yet."
"It's not time?" Xu Yi frowned."
"Yes, the time is not right, so you can't do it now." Sewini paused, nodded again, and added: "This is a common judgment of the situation by many people. You don't have to doubt it."
"Is it also included the opinions of Count Samo?" Xu Yi asked again.
"Yes."
Xu Yi pondered for a moment and nodded slightly: "Okay. I won't participate in these things because I don't have that ability for the time being. But Sewini, at least, I hope to use this matter to attract the Kingdom's attention to magic motorcycles. If a traffic law can be established as soon as possible according to my previous suggestions, I think this is something that will benefit the entire Kingdom."
"Well, I'm looking for someone to do this." At this point, Sewini suddenly laughed. "Speaking of this, because of this incident, no one dared to object to any proposal I made about it, and things went very smoothly. Xu Yi, should you thank this accident?"
Xu Yi stared at Sewini with a serious expression and slowly shook his head very seriously: "No, I would rather not have this traffic law be established at all than you are in such danger."
Looking at the extremely serious expression and extremely sincere eyes that were rare on Xu Yi's face, Sevini suddenly felt a strong warmth surge in his heart, and his pretty face couldn't help but turn slightly red.
After a while, she seemed to be unable to bear Xu Yi's direct gaze, lowered her head, paused, but raised her head again.
Although the blush on her face became a little deeper, she still insisted on looking at Xu Yi's eyes without dodging.
"Xu Yi, I haven't thanked you yet. Thank you for rushing to protect me that day."
Xu Yi smiled and shook his head: "This is nothing. From any perspective, this is what I should do."
"No matter from which angle?" Sevini looked at Xu Yi meaningfully. "What about the specific angle?"
"Well... First of all, it must be the most basic perspective of being a human. Seeing that others are in danger, as a normal human, how could I not want to protect the other person?"
"Oh? Then what about another angle?" Sewini was actually a little reluctant to leave.
Xu Yi smiled and replied, "There is another angle, of course, because you are the Princess. Think about it, what an important contribution is to protect the noble Princess."
Sewini also laughed, glanced at Xu Yi, paused, but insisted on asking: "So... are there any other angles?"
Facing Sevini's staring eyes, Xu Yi turned his head a little awkwardly, hesitated for a while, and then said softly: "What you have to say is of course because you are a girl, and I am a man. As a man, it is not natural to protect girls."
"Really?" Sewini clapped his hands with joy. "So you still treat me as an ordinary girl."
Xu Yi glared at her angrily: "I said... are you kidding me? Putting aside your identity, you are not only a girl, but also a very beautiful girl, okay?"
Sewini narrowed his eyes and laughed: "I'm very happy to hear your comments. So Xu Yi, I hope you can treat me more like an ordinary girl in the future, rather than always treat me as Your Highness the Princess?"
Xu Yi shrugged: "I'm afraid it's hard for me to agree to your request, because your identity as the Queen of the Princess cannot be changed. But then again, I originally treated you as the person who treats you the least? Will others not be able to speak respect to you privately like me?"
"Well, I like this feeling very much. I hope you can continue to maintain this attitude in the future."
Looking at Sevini with a happy face, Xu Yi felt a little amused.
Although she has always acted like a qualified princess since she first met Sevini, always showing a majestic, rational and calm look, after all, she is still a girl in her early twenties and has the same side as an ordinary girl.
Perhaps, she really hopes to have an object to communicate with her on the same level.
After discussing the details of traffic regulations with Sevini, Xu Yi left the city lord's mansion after discussing the feasibility of temporarily implementing traffic management regulations in Bangta City.
As soon as he walked out of the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, a black magic car suddenly drove quickly from a distance.
Xu Yi was about to dodge, but the magic car sounded a sharp and sharp brake, and stopped just two or three meters away from him.
Xu Yi frowned and looked at the magic car, and saw at a glance that the driver's seat of the magic car was Baron Billy.
Seeing Xu Yi's gaze swept over, Baron Billy even made a provocative gesture to him.
Xu Yi sneered, walked over and knocked on the car window, hooked his finger at Baron Billy, and signaled him to come down.
Baron Billy just pushed open the car door and stood up and looked at Xu Yi with a provocative look on his face.
"Hey, isn't this President Xu? Why? Did you meet His Highness the Princess just now? Did you go to sue me for your Highness? I told you just now, don't waste your time! His Highness the Princess can't move me. As for you, a small businessman, don't dream!"
Xu Yi glanced at him and ignored him at all. He saw that there was still someone sitting in the passenger seat. He gestured to him to get off the car as well.
The man got out of the car and Xu Yi recognized him as a little noble in the city. He probably got close to Baron Billy, so he got along with him.
"Is this magic car yours?" Xu Yi asked him.
The little nobleman was as arrogant as Baron Billy. When he heard Xu Yi’s question, he raised his face, his nostrils looked up, and snorted coldly: “What? Is it mine? Do you have any objection to President Xu?”
Xu Yi glanced at him, ignored him, but walked to the head of the magic car, raised his right hand, and the magic power flowed rapidly in his body.
A moment later, a fireball condensed in Xu Yi's palm.
Seeing Xu Yi's actions, Baron Billy and the little noble were surprised at the same time.
"What do you want to do?"
As soon as the two of them finished speaking, Xu Yi's right hand fell instantly, and the fireball directly hit the magic car.
"Boom--" (To be continued)
