Chapter 224: Mochizuki Crisis (4)
Alright, Brother Evan, it's just the three of us. Leo pulled over the wooden chair and sat down. And Susan is invited by Evan to sit on a bench. Evan's study is more spacious. After the demon left under the moon, the city's craftsmen renovated the place, removing the obstructive cabinets, setting up a full set of federal chairs, and placing a basin of magically bathed lavender on the desk, which they called the kiss of tranquility.
Evan lost his smile and returned to his usual appearance. "Leo, do you know the meaning of this pot of lavender?" he stared at Leo with a sharp gaze.
"Flowers, that's why I'm here......" Leo smiled, and immediately became serious, "This flower bathed in magic will never wither, unless it is destroyed by disaster or other things." I know you're not talking about the relationship between men and women, or the effects of sedative hypnosis. He saw Evan raise his wine glass, and wanted to have a drink together, but he didn't expect Evan to put down the wine glass. He could only smile again.
"You have to be patient, just like you are now. You're not just a patrol officer here, you've been a pillar of the Church of the Dark Veil. And now, the entire Mochizuki Plains is full of crises. At the same time, you have become a pillar of the Night Church. Evan reminded. Leo was only a year younger than him, but in some ways inferior to him, as Evan was born in a power-hungry environment, and his family had always followed Veron and had great ambitions, albeit in business. In fact, Leo's resourcefulness is still so bad compared to Evan, especially in the power struggle.
Krell listened outside the door for a while, but never dared to enter, only knowing that Evan had used the meaning of the kiss of tranquility to warn Leo. Because of Xavier's affairs, his status has become low. The people in the city looked at him strangely, and he lost confidence and was disappointed in Evan. Still, he was more afraid of Evan than ever. But as soon as he thought of his master, Xavier, after some self-fighting, he knocked on the door, and said it bluntly. "I'm sorry, but it's me, it's four......" he said in a mistakenly tone.
"Come in, Krel. You're a loyal person, and you don't look good outside the door. Evan sat down and moved his glass aside. In fact, Evan knew that there was Krell standing outside the door. He just wanted Krell to think about it before he came in and spoke, and to organize the language.
"I'm sorry, but if Master Mage really makes a mistake, you should lock me up too. I've been criticized by a lot of people, but I don't know what's wrong. Krell complained. He did a good job of proportion, and he didn't shout loudly or provoke Evan. Then, he had to do Xavier justice. "Master Mage, he's a good man. The only bad thing about him is that he is too stingy, especially when it comes to eating. He muttered. Tears glistened in his eyes.
"Krel, you wait first. I'm here for this, and Evan will make it clear to us. Otherwise, I'd turn this place into a conference hall, with no door panels left. I swear to the dragon god. Leo said solemnly, and bowed to the people. His bow was nothing short of a mockery of Evan.
Evan lifted his chin. He looked at Susan, then at the door. So Susan knew what Evan meant. "There's no one out there, I'm sure. If someone is outside, I will kindly persuade him to leave. Krell was just an accident, didn't you also acquiesce to him listening outside the door?" Susan shrugged. She was anxious, waiting for the opportunity to tell what had happened to her.
"Who are you watching out for?" Leo didn't quite understand, "the Assassin of Order, or the ...... hiding in the Lord's Hall" The Assassin of Order can't escape Derek's attention, and who can be the people hiding in the Hall? But Leo wasn't sure, as he never saw Derek around. At this point, he suddenly remembered Job. "It's astonishing that the letters you find from Job are exactly the same as the real thing. He blurted out.
Evan's eyes flashed, and he stared at Leo. Soon, he smiled. "Leo, this is you. You shouldn't run into me like a demented child, you've disgraced me. You should think from the heart and help me solve the crisis here. He reminded. He didn't want to say too much and wanted to end the conversation with this smile, but then he was disappointed - Leo didn't understand what the smile meant.
"I don't remember what face you care about. And before you defeat Thorne, you're either a scary boy or a bluffing face. Laugh, it's hard for you. However, I will help you, because you are the only one who will study with Xavier, and you will be the only one who will quarrel with me. But polite words don't work, you'll have to get Xavier out. Leo wiped the tip of his nose. He didn't like the "kiss of tranquility" very much, and the maid cultivated the flower too much, and the smell of the flower filled the house.
"Well, then, we'll have to talk about Silver. Evan paused. Susan looked at him and Leo quietly, and then saw their tones change to grave at times. She was about to interrupt them, wanting Evan to help him inquire about the other companions and Oraya, but found that now was not the right time.
However, Evan could tell that Susan was worried about Glori, because there were too many rumors about Glori, and he had heard a lot since Evan became the lord here, and he never stopped - he knew something about Susan and Glori, one refused to give up, and the other wanted to make the other happy but sent blessings, Evan thought so. On top of that, he also had to take care of the affairs of the Rocky Warband and Commander Auraya.
"Leo, you wait a minute. Evan said. Susan must have waited long enough, and it wasn't a good thing to make a girl sad and sad in front of her eyes like this. Then he looked at Susan. "I'll help you, and I've already said it. Also, one thing you need to know is that the recent rumors of Glori's solo invasion of the Glaive Cliffs have not stopped, suggesting that he may still be alive. Perhaps, Alaya and Dylan are safe too. He comforted Susan.
"Thank you. After returning from Idol City, we arrived at the Valley of the Reds. It was there that he met Silver's men, and it was there that Glori, Dylan, and Auraya lost news. I can only do what Oraya said, and try my best to bring Zoe here to convey the message and ask for help. Susan said sadly.
"I'm sorry, I thought Lord Xavier had told you about the trouble with the Blue Star, so I didn't say anything. What Lord Xavier saw might have been what Susan had said. Krell pondered.
"You can't be blamed for this, maybe Xavier was too tired to support the power of the moon god and forgot about it. But this is really abnormal, this matter is so important, he can forget it. Mentor Xavier showed signs of forgetfulness, and it was severe. Leo said. He was worried about whether Xavier would be able to stand it while he was in prison, and that was not the case before.
"Now, we have to deal with what's in front of us. When I think about it, I'll find the right people to find out about Glori, Dylan, and Auraya. Evan frowned. He was a little embarrassed, and he couldn't think of the right person for a while. Then he said to Leo, "I know you're worried about your mentor Xavier Noah, but I'm more worried than you are. ”
"So, how much do you know about Job?" Leo asked Evan bluntly.
"Leo, haven't you seen it with your own eyes?" Evan asked rhetorically. He took a breath, then handed the letters that had been retrieved from Xavier's room to Krel. Krell stepped forward to take the letter and handed it to Leo, who had been seated.
Leo looked at Krel, and could tell in his eyes that he was pleading for help. The matter of Mentor Xavier will come to an end, Leo thought. "I've read the letters you found in Job's room, and I've read the letters signed by Auraya. But what does this mean? Even though you have recovered some letters from Xavier's room. Obviously, something is wrong with Job, or is he framing Xavier?" Leo said.
"How can you say such a thing?" Evan frowned. He shared Xavier's fears that there were orderly agents or assassins in the city, and Xavier was already vigilant and had fallen into the trap of the law. He didn't want to tell Leo everything, the Assassins were elusive and now without the help of their Mentor, and Xavier was half the credit for the magic traps he had set up in the city. Last night, Evan's temper suddenly exploded, and it was precisely because of all kinds of pressures that the fight was a shame in his eyes. He was in a hurry, because Leo had done the stupid thing he had done last night at this critical moment. He wished Uncle Amore could help him, but how could that be? Then he thought about Derek, but where the hell was Derek? All he knew was that Derek was guarding over here.
"Evan, are you in a daze, or are you thinking?" asked Leo softly.
Evan came up with a way to let Leo leave temporarily, and this solution had been prepared for a long time in response to the current situation. He just couldn't find anyone to do it, and Leo happened to be the obvious choice. "There's only one thing I can say to you, Leo, and that's that you'll have to run an errand for me," he said, "pour me a glass of wine, and I'll show you something, something you'll be happy to see." But you have to make sure you don't laugh out loud or pat me the shoulder. ”
"What's it? is it related to Mentor Xavier?" Leo was suspicious, and stepped forward to pour his wine. In normal times, he would have taken the wine away long ago. Faced with the matter of his mentor, he had to let go of his temper.
"A letter, written by me. Of course, you can open it and look at it, but only if you do what I say. Leo, you must listen to me, and you can't make any mistakes. You don't have a choice, you have to understand. Evan said. He handed the letter to Leo and looked him in the eye.
Leo took the letter, and the recipient surprised him......
