"You mean, there was an attack on the mayor's mansion last night?" Owen put away the newspaper in his hand and looked at the subordinate who came to report with a little seriousness.

The man said with a little nervousness, "Yes, it is said that it was the hand of the magician. ”

"Magician?"

Hearing this, Owen was stunned, in fact, his first reaction when he heard the news was that Lu Fan of the Xincheng family, that person's strength was unfathomable, and he also had full motives.

But it was clear that the man was not a magician, and even if he couldn't sense the fluctuation of Yuan Force at all, the few hands he briefly exposed also indicated that he was a melee swordsman.

"Look, my lord, do we need to do some ...... too?"

Seeing that Owen did not speak, the servant hesitated for a moment and spoke.

"I have my own arrangements. Owen put the newspaper on the table, and the headline "The Guard's Mansion Admits to Wronging the Xincheng Family and Has Removed the Seizure Order" is clearly printed on it, which is about what happened in the morning, which not only describes the apology of the Guard's Mansion in detail, but also makes a bold guess about who instructed the mercenaries to do things, although it is not explicitly stated, but the whole film is alluding to himself.

Cheng Moyin...... I hope you're smarter. ”

Owen whispered and walked out of the room with a gloomy expression.

......

"It's like this, it's like this. ”

Lu Fan held a wooden board and made a sweeping and waving motion, while the black-haired girl on the side stared at Lu Fan's movements, imitating them seriously.

"Let's have some snacks. ”

A gentle voice made the movements of the two stop, and when they turned around, they saw Cheng Moyin squatting on a plate.

"It's orange juice, thank you, Sister Cheng!"

In Qian's cheerful shout, Lu Fan helplessly supported his forehead and nodded: "Thank you, Miss Cheng." ”

Akane's giant sword was stuck diagonally on the ground on the side, and the whole person was sitting on it happily drinking orange juice, although Lu Fan was very curious about why the giant sword would not fall, but obviously there were more things to ask.

The people of the Guards removed the seal and issued a proclamation apologizing. Cheng Moyin seemed to know what Lu Fan wanted to ask, so he said it first.

Lu Fan nodded, picked up a piece of pastry on the plate, and was about to ask while chewing.

"The mercenaries are still here today, but they don't seem to have any confidence, and they run away after a symbolic fuss. Cheng Moyin spoke up again, and handed a new piece of pastry to Lu Fan's face.

“......”

Seeing a rare mischievous smile on the corner of Cheng Moyin's mouth, Lu Fan was stunned and was about to reach out to take the pastry.

"Ahh

Suddenly, a hand stretched out from the oblique stab, took away the pastry handed over by Cheng Moyin, and ran away like another gust of wind.

Lu Fan looked at the back of the black-haired girl, and always felt that something seemed wrong, but he couldn't think of it, so he could only smile at Cheng Moyin awkwardly.

“...... Akane is so cute. Cheng Moyin's face did not change, and he withdrew his hand.

"She's still a child. Lu Fan shook his head, looking at the girl still sitting on the giant sword, eating pastries and drinking juice, and swaying a pair of legs, as if she was in a very good mood.

"I'm just 18 ......" Seeing Lu Fan's gaze, Cheng Moyin also whispered.

"What?" Because Lu Fan didn't pay attention to Cheng Moyin's words, although he heard what Cheng Moyin said, Lu Fan still wondered if he had heard something wrong.

“...... It's okay, I'll go and get busy first. ”

Cheng Moyin stood up, didn't say anything, and left the courtyard.

Inexplicable ......

Lu Fan scratched the back of his head and looked at Cheng Moyin's back, feeling that he couldn't understand what was happening at this moment.

However, Lu Fan was looking at Cheng Moyin's back, and naturally didn't notice that the black-haired girl was also looking at him, it seemed that because of Cheng Moyin's departure, the girl finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Even she didn't know why she felt a sense of relief, just like she didn't know why she had gone to grab the pastry before but still subconsciously grabbed it.

A mood that the girl herself can't be sure of is slowly starting to develop.

"What's wrong?"

Lu Fan's voice woke up the girl who was in a daze, it turned out that she didn't know when, Lu Fan was already standing in front of her, looking at her suspiciously.

"No, nothing!"

The girl hurriedly stuffed all the pastries in her hand into her mouth, but she didn't expect to choke, so she hurriedly picked up the orange juice that was still half left next to her hand and poured it violently, and coughed.

"Ahem, cough, cough, ......"

At this time, the girl felt a pair of hands leaning over her back, gently patting her, and in a few moments, swallowing all the pastries.

"No one is robbing you, why are you in such a hurry. ”

Looking at Lu Fan's face with a hint of smile, the girl felt a burst of shyness, and her face must be red at this time.

"Come, go on. Lu Fan saw the girl's embarrassed appearance, smiled and patted her on the shoulder, signaling to continue practicing.

"Good ......"

......

"Cheng Chengyi didn't give any explanation?"

In the room, the old man looked at his subordinates and asked with a serious face.

"No, I didn't even see him......" The servant shook his head helplessly.

"It's really presumptuous! Even if you want to deal with the new Cheng family, you shouldn't be so reckless, now the whole city is guessing that we did it, and today's order to withdraw the mayor of the town can also show that my granddaughter's backer is not simple, and there is a strong man who can defeat Cheng Jin with one blow...... It's really, so impulsive!"

The old man tapped the cane on his hand with some anger.

"Head of the family, when I came back just now, I listened and heard some bad rumors in the clan......

The subordinate did not dare to make eye contact with the old man, as if he was afraid that what he said would cause the old man to be dissatisfied.

"Something to say!"

"Some of them said that you gave the order to deal with the Xincheng family, and they also said that we provoked people who should not be provoked this time......

"This bastard!" the old man stood up suddenly, startling his subordinates.

"Isn't he in a hurry? Put all the blame on me? The rumors of Cheng Moxing a few days ago, and now he is pouring these dirty water on me, this unfilial son, I don't know if he does this, even if he can become the patriarch, it will be a mess?"

Under the anger of the old man, the subordinate trembled and did not dare to respond.

"Decree, saying that I personally ordered him to come to me and bring this to the family!"

Looking at such a timid subordinate, the old man waved his hand helplessly, signaling that he could leave.

The servant hurriedly escaped, and looking at the closed door, the old man sat back in his seat with some weakness.

"Am I wrong......

What happened in the past few days made the old man a little tired, and even had a hint of doubt.
