The man who came to the garden made a standard aristocratic etiquette towards the middle-aged man lying on the old chair, and his movements were very elegant, but the clothes on the man's body did not match this etiquette.

The middle-aged man lying on the old chair with a wool wig opened his eyes, and then glanced at the man in old-fashioned leather boots out of the corner of his eye, and said casually: "Oh, Manhattan, you're here, just find a place to sit, don't be polite to me." ”

It was Manhattan who had arrived, and he looked around and saw that there was not even a rudimentary wooden stool for him, and that it was empty, and he didn't know where to sit there.

Then he heard a roar, and he looked in the direction from which it came, a shepherd dog, with a pure color and a very smooth combed, lying on a rocking chair, grinning at Kane.

"Dai Wang, be quiet, you're disturbing my sleep. The middle-aged man lying on the chair opened his eyes, looked at his sheepdog, and then reached out and touched its head to calm it.

Sure enough, the sheepdog was much quieter after hearing what the middle-aged man said.

Then the middle-aged man lying on the rocking chair closed his eyes and said, "Sometimes beasts are much smarter than people!" Manhattan didn't know what it was like in his heart when he heard this, but he could only say with a pandering mouth: "I think what Duke Lucius said is very reasonable, the shepherd dog is indeed very smart, and Dai Wang is indeed a smart child." ”

The one lying on the chair was the father of the president of the Murderous Nightclub Adventurers' Guild, the ruling minister of the empire who was in charge of the empire's finances.

Duke Lucius didn't mean to open his eyes, the old god was still spread out on the old man's rocking chair, and Manhattan, who was standing on the side, didn't dare to speak, for fear of disturbing the lunch break of the powerful man in front of him.

Duke Lucius snored slightly after shaking for a while, and seemed to be sleeping deeply, and he didn't mean to wake up for a while, while Dai Wan on the side was staring at Manhattan.

Manhattan looked at it, bared his teeth at it, and then made a gesture of wiping his neck with his hand, regardless of whether Dai Wang could understand it or not. After seeing Manhattan's actions, Dai Wang really looked at him with bared teeth and let out another low roar.

"Oh, Dawang, I told you, don't disturb my lunch break. Duke Lucius said as he looked at Dai Wang, a sheepdog next to him who was wagging his tail at him. Seeing the flattering appearance of the shepherd dog Dai Wang, Duke Lucius, who was originally a little annoyed, suddenly felt much better.

"I was supposed to have a good lunch break at noon today, but unfortunately I was disturbed by this little guy. Okay, Manhattan you have something, hurry up. Duke Lucius said impatiently.

"Lord Lucius, Colin of House Noldoro has seen Miss Isa today. And it seems that she is forcing Miss Isha to marry, it seems that Miss Isha has almost given up struggling, and soon she will relent, Miss Isha said to give her three days to think about it. Manhattan lowered his head, not daring to look directly at Duke Lucius in front of him. He kept his head down, not knowing what he was thinking.

"It's really good news. Okay, as soon as Isha relieves her mouth in three days, I'm ready to start planning, you go and prepare, now continue to keep an eye on Isha for me, as long as it happens, I will not forget what I promised you, and I will put you in the position of mayor. After the Duke of Lucius finished speaking, he continued to lie down in his old chair.

"But Lord Lucius, is it really good to do this, Miss Isa is your own daughter, and I am afraid that it is not reasonable for a father to do so. Manhattan looked up at Duke Lucius and said.

After hearing Manhattan's words, Duke Lucius immediately opened his newly closed eyes, and then slapped his chair angrily and said, "Are you a waste teaching me? If it weren't for your family, we Berar wouldn't be what we are today." The middle-aged man who sat up angrily scolded Manhattan, who was standing aside, and smashed the teacup on a small round table next to him at the broken man.

Manhattan wiped the tea off his face and said, "That's not what I meant, and I ask Lord Lucius to calm his anger." ”

After touching Dai Wang next to him, Duke Lucius spread out on the old man's rocking chair and closed his eyes, and then he said: "If there is nothing to do, get out, remember your identity, you are just a dog that begged me to take in, don't think that you are still the young master of the high-ranking Byrne family." ”

Manhattan wanted to say something more, but looking at Duke Lucius's appearance, it was obvious that he didn't want to see him for even a moment, so he walked out of the garden respectfully after performing a noble courtesy.

In the northwest corner of the city of Yed, in the opposite direction of Duke Lucius's house, near the river, there was a villa no worse than the previous Duke Lucius's house, and the man named Manhattan had arrived.

On the way he came, he kept looking back, he was wary of anyone following him. After making sure that there was no one, as before, the guy also went around to the back door of this luxurious villa and knocked.

The one who opened the door was an old man, with gloomy eyes and white hair. He looked at Manhattan and said, "What's the matter?"

"I'm here to sell fish, and there's a big fish on the bait today, do you want to, sir?" Manhattan said as he looked at the old man and said as he looked at the old man.

"Come in!" the old man stepped aside, and when Manhattan entered, the old man moved his hand casually, and the surrounding yuan was quietly surging, and the traces of that kind of magic turmoil were faintly traceable.

After the enchantment was raised, the old man turned to look at Manhattan behind him: "Fool, no one followed you and didn't notice it. "But it's good that you're smart. Then the old man looked at the few perch in Manhattan's hand and said.

Manhattan was a little stunned, he had repeatedly looked behind him when he came, but there was no one behind him, but he went to the river to catch a few perch just to be on the safe side. It seems that Duke Lucius is still wary of him.

"Throw those perch to the kitchen, and then come to the young master. With that, the old man turned and walked away.

Manhattan came to the kitchen of this mansion with familiarity, and the chefs of the kitchen were already surprised to see this man, obviously Manhattan was not the first time to come here.

After handing over the sea bass to the kitchen master, Manhattan himself followed the road and found a courtyard in the mansion, and when Manhattan walked to the door, he saw the old man standing at the door of the courtyard, and Manhattan was very interested in standing at the door and waiting.

In the room in the courtyard, the noise quickly stopped, and the inside finally fell silent. By this time, Manhattan was already dry-mouthed. With the foot itself coming out, Colin Noldo, with his upper body exposed, walked out. Looking at Manhattan at the door, he said impatiently, "Is there any movement in that old man?"

"Yes, Master Colin. Manhattan said with a respectful bow.

"I don't know the so-called old thing, I want to rely on a woman to get to our Noldor Road family, it's really getting older and more confused. Colin Noldolu said disdainfully.

"Young Master, it's better to be careful, Lucius is also one of the ruling ministers of the empire after all, so don't take it too lightly. The standing shadowy old man said towards Colin Noldor.

"See, Grandpa Fosk, go find some more people, and by the way, let them stir up those fools together, and let them go to the door of that to be flies. ”

"Okay, young master. The old man named Fosk, after receiving Colin Noldor's orders, glanced at Manhattan and turned away.

"A cheap woman, it took so long to let go of Lao Tzu, you made Lao Tzu unhappy, and Lao Tzu will not make you feel better, go and listen to that group of flies buzzing all day long. Colin Norrington said with a vicious expression.

"Young Master Colin, Lucius's old thing is ready to be laid out in three days, and Miss Isha will start the layout as soon as she relaxes, so please Master Colin hurry up and prepare. ”

"Got it, is there anything else?" said Colin Noldoro dismissively.

"No, no. Manhattan said with a look of resignation.

"And what are you doing here?" Colin Noldor yelled disgruntled towards Manhattan.

"Well, about Miss Isa?" Manhattan asked in a shudder.

"Don't worry, I'll give it to you when I've had enough. Colin Noldor said with sarcasm in his eyes.

"Young Master~" A delicate voice came into Manhattan's ears, almost making his bones fall off.

Manhattan looked at the scantily clad woman who came out, she glanced at Manhattan with disdain and disdain, and then leaned into Colin Noldor's arms seductively.

"Is there anything else?" said Colin Noldro, impatiently.

"It's gone. ”

"Then why don't you hurry up and wait to see Lao Tzu's performance?"

Manhattan saluted when he heard Colin Noldor's words, and hurried back.

",, don't you understand? Hurry up and disappear from here. Colin Noldolu was walking in the bewitching woman's shirt at the moment, and his mouth kept scolding at Manhattan.

As soon as Manhattan walked out of the courtyard, he heard Colin Noldolu's scolding voice: "Useless fellow, if it weren't for Lucius's old thing knowing everything about us, I would have used you dog." Then the whole courtyard was left with the sound of chaos.

After leaving the courtyard, Manhattan clenched his fists tightly, he knew that if it weren't for the fact that Beral and the Noldorlu family knew each other, he would not have been sent by Colin Noldoru to Lucius to spy on them, after all, their family had cooperated with the Berars.

However, Lucius was able to accept him at first, which made him curious, and he didn't know if he had other plans or remembered his grandfather's old feelings.
