Chapter 474: The Game Within the Game, Goldfinger and the Prince's Invitation (Playing Chicken Blood Three More Requests for Pink on the Weekend!! )
"You don't need to teach, you can use it all once in front of me in the future."
Rodiel's heart was completely relaxed, and in the future, if he was not going to kill people immediately, then it would be easy to say anything.
But he hesitated again: "Can you not use the full set?" In fact, this set of physical techniques does not have the coordinated breathing and fighting qi to operate, it is a purely physical skill. ”
This is also the reason why this set of body techniques, although it was secretly passed down by Merlin's ancestors, was so easy to pass on. This set of body techniques does not have a matching Dou Qi operation method and breathing method, and in terms of cultivation effect, it is actually far inferior to some of the top secret techniques collected by the Merlin royal family over the years.
Of course, it can play a big role in the environment of the imperial capital's development and prohibition, which is the reason why the children of the royal family have to practice this physical art, after all, the children of the royal family have to live in the imperial capital for most of their lives.
It's just that Rodier's cultivation in this set of body techniques is not outstanding among his peers, because the cultivation method of this set of body techniques, in his words, "Hell, damn it's just a kind of self-harm!" ”
Running without a fighting spirit?
When Lin An heard this, his heart immediately moved, thought about it, and said, "Yes." ”
Anyway, she just wanted to confirm the source of this set of body techniques, although she couldn't hear anything from the name Promen, but Lin An intuitively felt that this set of body techniques was related to her own meditation body techniques.
Unexpectedly, Rodier reversed himself, "Forget it, you saved my life, can't I even show you a physical technique?" You learn what you learn. ”
Lin An glanced at him lightly, his eyes were clear, neither happy nor sad, as if he knew what he was thinking.
Rodier was slightly depressed by this gaze.
Of course, he can't be as straightforward and bold as he seems on the surface, a person like Lin An, suddenly asking about physical skills is definitely not untargeted, and because Prümen is left by the founding ancestor of Merlin, Rodier looked at the squirrel, but he is not really brainless, on the contrary, he has a good brain. Helplessly, Lin An's oil and salt did not enter.
Of course, Rodier is not saying that he has bad intentions towards Lin An, this kind of temptation can only be said to be a kind of sensitivity and instinct cultivated by the children of the royal family in the growth environment, Lin An's questions about physical skills were asked directly, and he did not hide it, and Rodier did not have much doubt about it in his heart.
When John returned, Lin An had already taken care of the guard's injuries, temporarily saved the latter's life, and was treating Rodiel's wounds.
Rodier's most important injury was in his leg, and with one bare leg he looked more uncomfortable than Lin'an, and saw John come back. Awkward smile.
"Well, the arrows are only coated with anesthetic," which is one of the reasons why the guard passed out without saying a word.
Lin An pressed Rodier's thigh. The muscles near the latter's wound twitched, his face distorted, and he explained: "We, the children of the royal family, have been trained in medicine since childhood, like ordinary anesthetics and chronic poisons. Generally have some resistance. ”
This is no longer some resistance, the anesthetic that can stun normal people is basically ineffective against Rodiel, which shows the resistance of his body.
Therefore, Rodiel's attitude after the assassination is not very strange, instead of asking for follow-up and calling for help, he has the intention to play psychological games with her, which may be attributed to the fact that he has experienced similar assassinations since he was a child.
However, Rodier has such a good attitude of cooperation. It still made Lin Anduo look at him, and his eyes moved slightly.
For a moment, John returned with only one body.
"The other ran away. They prepared the way back. "Johann was not familiar with the roads of the imperial capital, especially the roads in the rich areas were more complicated than those in the aristocratic circles.
The corpse in his hand was thrown to the ground with a thud, the corpse was stabbed in the thigh, and black blood was spilled from the crooked face, and he committed suicide by biting through the poison sac. As Lin An expected, it was a dead man.
Lin An let go of Rodiel's injuries and shifted the target to an autopsy.
Rodier watched as Lin An inserted his fingers into the corpse's mouth and looked through his mouth. Open the eyelids to check the pupil, then pluck the hair, pluck a few stubbles to check the roots, and then throw them away.
"The hair has been dyed, the teeth have been smoothed, and the facial contours have been micro-shaped, but it's almost certain that it's Merlin."
"Professional killer organizations will adopt orphans from various countries for training, and you can't see anything from their appearance."
Rodier interjected, his voice was a little weak due to blood loss, and of course there might be a factor of stimulation caused by the contrast between Lin An's actions and her beautiful and weak appearance.
"Well, do you think they're coming at me or at you...... No, I mean, do you have an idea of the motive for this assassination? When Rodier said that he covered his mouth in the back, he almost wanted to pump his mouth, and at a critical time, this stinky mouth couldn't speak!
Lin An's gaze swept over, his black eyes were clear and bottomless, and he didn't care about Rodier's words, "I don't know either." ”
She has many hostile forces, and there are no fewer people who have the motive to kill her than Rodiel, and if it is easier to find the other party if it is only to assassinate her, but it is included along with Rodier, then the reason is much more complicated.
Because judging from the situation, the other party obviously wants to catch them all, and there is no way to distinguish the priority, and there seems to be no question of who is responsible for whom, because from Rodier's broken axle to Lin An's coachman is an assassin, it is obvious that both of them are the targets of assassination, and the interests of the two of them are even more.
In addition, because of the uncontrollable factors such as the timing of Rodier and Lin An's decision to leave the ball, this assassination was also accidental, and the other party mobilized forces in a hurry, otherwise a few more crossbowmen would have been arranged, at least Rodier would have died.
Thinking about it further, the situation that Rodier and she were only alone with only one person was also very coincidental, so could it be that Andre and the situation of them being led away was also intentional? What about Rodier's side? Why did he take this path?
Of course, Lin An is not without suspicions in her heart, and based on all kinds of signs, the object of suspicion in her heart is still very suspicious, but this matter should not be entangled.
Lin An glanced at Rodier again and asked about John's injury, and John's two arrows were only flesh wounds, and he would treat and stop the bleeding on the way back.
John has never come forward to express his opinion on behalf of Lin An in front of people, but the tacit understanding between the two is not low, and without Lin An's instructions, John will pack up the three corpses and put them together.
Lin An examined the assassin's corpse and looked through nothing suspicious, then took down the opponent's crossbow arrow dagger. In particular, the blade that was less than a finger long on the driver's middle finger squinted and carefully studied it for a while before it was put into the space.
Rogier leaned against the wall, watching Lin An suspiciously.
Seeing Lin An ask John to stack the corpses together, take out a small bottle from the space and pour the liquid inside on the corpse, the corpse made a sizzling corrosion sound, the flesh and bones and clothes turned into a pool of blood, and finally washed with a water balloon, and even the blood flowed into the cracks of the stone slab, leaving no trace at the scene. Only a faint foul smell remains, like the kind of pig's trotters when they are half-baked on the fire.
This method of destroying corpses and destroying traces is so skillful!
Rogier rings his alarm bell in his heart, and then sees John's coming towards him. “…… You—What are you doing? ”
"Won't you go back, Lord Count?"
Rogier breathed a sigh of relief, and said hesitantly: "Then ...... here" He could see that Lin An destroyed the body because he didn't want others to pay attention to this assassination, although this was also in line with his intentions. It feels weird.
Lin An glanced at him with a cold expression, "Nothing happened today." You and your guards' injuries, do you have a way to explain them? ”
Rogier was stunned, and seeing Lin An's eyebrows gradually frowning, he quickly nodded and said, "Of course." Nothing happened today," he thought for a moment and added. "Your missing coachman, I will also find someone to take over, and I will not arouse suspicion."
"I just hope you keep your promise and don't divulge things you shouldn't have said." Lin An said coldly and calmly.
***
That night, in a palace near the forest garden outside Pompeii. Rogier, bandaged and covered in bandages, lay on the bed.
He had come up with an idea before and asked Lin An to send him here. Then he can explain to the outside world that when he and the guards ran to Lin Yuan to hunt, they encountered an accident, and the injuries on their bodies came from this.
No matter how clumsy this reason is, he finally has an excuse, anyway, Rogier has always done whatever he wants, he is rebellious and wanton, he is not unable to do this kind of thing after leaving the ball, he is not particularly serious about the injuries on his body, and after returning to his own territory, after some re-healing, it is just a matter of waiting for the injuries to recover.
But Rodier is now very distressed.
He had a soft cushion under his thigh, and looked depressedly at the second prince Byron in front of him.
"What to do? I think she might have seen through it. ”
"You're so foolish! How can you explain that it is self-defeating to use someone trained by Uncle Cyril to do such a thing? Could it be that explaining to her that you were just joking, trying to bring her back from her stun, not trying to hurt her? ”
Prince Byron said angrily, "I know your character, I will believe you, but do you think people will believe it?" If it weren't for your identity, you wouldn't be able to come back now, and destroying the corpse is a warning, can't you see it? ”
Rodier sneered, of course he knew, so he subconsciously concealed that Lin An could still cast spells and ask about physical arts, the original plan to save the beauty of the hero was destroyed, and he now had a sense of fear of Lin An.
It was also because of this faint sense of fear in his heart that he had forgotten about the death of several dead soldiers at that time, and now that he thought about it, could it be that Master Lin had realized that it was his own hands and feet at that time, so he deliberately used them to teach himself a lesson?
According to his previous personality, once Rodier determined this, he would probably have torn his face on the spot in anger, but for Master Lin, a woman whose appearance and strength were trembling, he couldn't get angry at all, not only because of Lin An's methods, but also because of her mystery, which made him curious, scratching his heart with a hundred claws, thinking that he would go to Lin An after his injury was healed.
But the first thing he had to think about now was how to explain to his father when he returned.
……
In the suite where Lin An stayed.
"Found?" Lin An put down the book, and the small table in front of her was covered with a white cloth, on which were the things that were found from the body at this moment, crossbow arrows, daggers, finger blades, and some fragmentary objects were lined up.
"The second prince went to him." John replied.
"I haven't heard of any prince who is particularly close to Rodier, but I didn't expect it to be obvious at this time," Lin An was not in a hurry, and picked up the finger blade on the table, "However, it is so obvious that the person behind the scenes will not be him." ”
From the coincidence, the anesthetic on the arrow, and Rodier's reaction after being injured, Lin An deduced six or seven points of truth, but because of the same reason as the second prince, Rogil, the guy who set up a situation in the open, does not seem to be the real mastermind behind it-
No matter what Rodier originally planned, it would be harmless to Lin An. He couldn't hurt himself, but the farce arranged by Rodier was mixed with real assassination, and it was very dangerous.
This is also the reason why she didn't see Rodier's farce for the first time, of course those who have been on the battlefield know how to distinguish the killing machine, the murderous aura of those dead soldiers is not a disguise, only Rodier fell to the ground at that time, and the attack firepower was attracted by Lin An and the two, and he didn't know the truth.
But what is the purpose of the other party?
Assassination? Pin? Discord? Provocation? ……
"You say, do he know the medicine on the blade of his fingers? Not a narcotic, but a highly toxic one? ”
The mastermind behind her wants to be the only one in the end. Or is that including Rogiel?
***
After spending the first day of the ball, the emperor no longer had to appear every day, and Lin An didn't need to show up at the ball every day.
The ball was supposed to be a place of fun and socializing, and the next six days of the ball were relatively free, and the nobles could come and go at will. Anyway, the huge court ball will always be filled with countless nobles who want to find opportunities or expand their communication, and it is impossible to be deserted, and there are even many nobles who are keen on the ball to live directly in the palace for several days in a row.
However, Lin An still showed up at the dance party the next day, and the encounter at the dance was no different from the day before. It seems that the incident of the assassination in the alley did not spread at all.
Of course, Lin An didn't expect the major nobles in the city, especially Prince Cyril and the entire royal family. Nothing was known about it, but it seemed that they were planning to cover it up under Rodier's clumsy pretext.
The shadow under the flourishing of the flower tapestry cannot rise to the surface.
Prince Cyril and the princess also appeared at the ball as yesterday, and it was clear that he was a prince close to the people. The popularity is very good, and I saw Lin An nodding with the same attitude as yesterday. As if nothing was known.
But Lin An didn't dare to underestimate the other party, Rodier was definitely used, but whether there was this Prince Cyril among the people who used it, it was difficult to say, unless Lin An could determine that the assassin target included Rodeil, in order to rule out the suspicion of Prince Cyril - Rodil as the only heir, no matter how much he messed around, Prince Cyril would be the one who didn't want him to die.
But Lin An knows too little now, so he can only put aside his suspicions about the assassination for the time being.
Andre and Shiryl did not return to their stay in Miyagi last night, but they sent someone back to deliver a message saying that they were staying with an elder temporarily, which also made it impossible for Lin An to ask them about being called away.
On this day's ball, Lin An left early, and disappeared after only showing a short face at the ball, much to the disappointment of the aristocratic young men who were looking for her.
"It seems that Master Lin doesn't like to socialize." An aristocratic young man muttered.
"That's a pity, she's so hard to touch, she hasn't danced a dance for two days, I think she probably can't even remember our names! It would be nice to see more of them in public! Another young nobleman echoed him, and he once invited Lin An to dance.
"Of course, we can't compare with her companions who have been with her for a long time, you see how natural and kind she looked when she talked to those honorees before, and she was not at all far away when she rejected us, I really hate why I am not one of the honorees." Another nobleman said enviously.
"Maybe we should change our attitude and build a good relationship with those who have received honors...... Oh, by the way, isn't it said that Lord Fritz and Master Lynn have a good relationship, and that Hemer! We went to Yelia and asked him to introduce his cousin to us. ”
Lin An's attraction to a group of young generation of aristocratic men was incomparable, and after watching from afar for a few days, they finally couldn't bear it anymore, and would rather let go of their reserved posture and decide to save the country.
……
There was a wave of chasing and the protagonists who were talked about by many people at the ball didn't know the conversation behind the nobles of the imperial capital, and even if they knew, they would be happy to see it.
She had long planned to use her influence to bring other recipients with her.
Anyway, since she wants to show weakness, she can't coldly refuse all invitations to social activities, since they are all to attend, it is better to help the recipients enter the social circle by the way.
At the same time, she can also use the honorees as a filter to filter out a suitable social circle, which is much safer than participating in a social gathering that does not know the details, which is a mutually beneficial matter for both parties, with the number and ears of the honorees, even if they are not familiar with the imperial capital, under the gradual opening of the social circle. You can also quickly understand a lot of things that can't be described on paper.
At this time, Lin An left the palace, but did not return to the accommodation, and took advantage of the early time to go to the riverside business district to play.
Shopping, Lin An has basically never done this kind of thing since he came to this continent.
Even in the magic capital with a strong trading atmosphere, Lin An also allocated most of his time to cultivation, and purchased magic items directly to the mage tower to find targets or order them directly from credible merchants. Lin An almost forgot that shopping and leisure used to be an important part of urban life in his previous life.
The business district is a different kind of bustle from the dance party.
The business district on the east coast is fine, although there are quite a few people, mostly wealthy businessmen and landlords who travel with their families. Occasionally, one or two carriages with noble insignia drove by, and the people in the street immediately retreated to both sides of the road to get out of the way.
The storefronts on both sides of the road are also very neat, with flowers and colorful silk hanging outside the storefronts. Wind chimes rattle crisply, minstrels, flutes play in the corners, play organs, take off their hats and salute them on their chests when a song is finished, and the rich who enjoy their music leave tips in their hats.
Clowns with their faces painted in color toss brightly colored balls to help the circus attract the attention of customers. Soon, a group of people surrounded the circus. From time to time, there was loud applause, and they set up tents in the open area, and the staged circus began to perform amid the screams and cheers of children.
The civilian commercial areas of the West Bank are completely crowded.
The seven days of the festival are tax-free, so it becomes a lively market. It seems that the entire imperial capital is crowded here, with endless shouting, quarrels, and bargaining, and even fist-to-fist clashes from time to time, compared to the commercial district on the east coast, it is like a quiet little village.
Lin An used the "Illusion of Aegis" to turn into a half-grown civilian teenager. blended into the crowd, and John's followed. Fortunately, Lin An's turned teenager had conspicuous red hair, and John's was not so easy to lose her.
Lin An had a lot of fun, and even the lunch at noon was solved in the civilian hotel.
It was a hotel called "Black Horn", which doubled as an inn and a tavern, and its signature roast leg of lamb was nowhere near as good as the imperial chef's skills, but the home-brewed cheek ale had the taste of beer from the past.
Lin An choked after taking a large sip of ale wine, and a flush appeared on his face, causing the rude men around him to laugh.
However, these teases are all more kind, although Lin An's changed appearance of the teenager has been as close as possible to the civilian boy, with messy hair, rough and dull skin, and freckles on his face, but the long-term etiquette habits still make her demeanor more gentle, and in the eyes of these low-level men, she is a sissy.
John watched in amazement as Lin An grabbed the leg of mutton bone and directly bit the meat on it with his teeth, which was completely different from the young lady he knew, which made him realize that Lin An was really happy today, so that he changed his identity and completely let go.
However, he did not stop Lin An's loss of honor, it is not uncommon for nobles to disguise their identities and serve in civilian areas, those nobles have been bound by expectations and responsibilities since childhood, and occasionally change their identities and experience a different life, which can meet their needs to relieve stress.
Lin An has too many things to bear, he has always been very strong and calm, but people always need to take a break once in a while, John has never seen her idle since he followed Lin An, and he can relax today, he is happy to see it, although the assassination incident just happened the day before, it is not a good time to relieve pressure, but a good mood is such a thing, where can you meet it if you want to.
John didn't want to disturb Lin An's mood, so he sat at another table across the table.
The hotel was already full, many people sat together, and even Lin An's small round table had a girl of a similar age sitting with her, and others saw two young men and women of similar age talking to each other.
But he was alone at John's table.
He has been promoted to a second-class hereditary baron and has his own territory, but because he usually has to follow Lin An, he has always been low-key in his dress, and he is used to wearing a warrior's tight-fitting suit, because he strictly observes dress etiquette, his samurai uniform is a long-sleeved and long-sleeved robe, which is incompatible with the bare arms and short fights of the big men around him, not to mention the knight's long sword and half-worn rhinoceros skin sheath on his waist, which at first glance are not worn by civilians in the market.
Generally speaking. A man of such an obvious stature as John would not haunt such a civilian tavern, and the people here would often not welcome such outsiders, and would provoke and ostracize them with hostile glances or dismounts.
Johann had a similar experience.
But after sitting down this time, there was no one to provoke for a long time, John's was a little strange, and turned his attention away from Lin An's side, only to find that he was not the only one in a similar situation, and there were also three or four exclusive tables in various corners of the tavern. The people who sat were all dressed similarly to John's, eating and drinking with their heads buried in their heads, and the others ignored them. It seems that they have become accustomed to it, and even the drinkers sitting near those people will be a little quieter.
Realizing that this was no ordinary inn, John wandered around and finally found the answer on a sign in the inconspicuous part of the bar.
It was two fists broken together. Like two clenched palms when wrestling wrists, it represents unity, strength, and communication, which is the hallmark of the mercenary union.
However, the mercenary union took root in the Fischer-Tropsch business alliance, with the Fischer-Tropsch business line as the radiation influence area, and in the past two or three hundred years, mainland commerce has gradually risen, and even Pompeii, the capital of the Merlin Emperor, has been distributed several stations.
The organizational system of the mercenary union is relatively perfect. It can be said to be all over the mainland, with a wide influence, and its credibility is also quite credible after hundreds of years of accumulation. In practice, however, the central authority of the Fischer-Tropsch headquarters was rather loose. It is mainly dominated by local forces, and is indirectly controlled by local rulers.
After all, no ruler would want to see a continental organization with armed forces, information channels, and wealth on his territory, not under his control, not even Perret, who was closest to Fito, could not allow it.
The Mercenary Guild also has chapters in Pompey, of course, and several other branches. This "Black Horn" inn is probably one located in a civilian area, so it's no wonder that there are several warriors with good strength. It's just that because of the ban, John didn't find out at first.
Now that John had taken a closer look, he found that the density of warriors in the tavern was significantly higher than outside. However, John is usually used to staying among the nobles, and even the most wasteful nobles in the imperial capital, even if they can't cultivate at the rank, they will have some fighting spirit, so John is used to being surrounded by cultivators, and he didn't notice anything when he entered the tavern just now.
But where can those waste aristocrats and mercenaries be compared?
Noble warriors are flowers kept in vases, and once the mercenaries who lick blood from the knife edge are aroused, they may all become outlaws.
John was able to easily deal with ten gold-level nobles who had little actual combat experience, but he had once seen a gold-level mercenary cross the ranks and kill a strong man who was about to become a sword master at the end of elemental civilization.
Therefore, this seemingly ordinary tavern immediately became dangerous in John's eyes, knowing that Lin An had just been assassinated yesterday, and she didn't know where she was now.
So without bothering to hide Lin An's identity, John got up and walked towards Lin An.
As soon as the girl who shared the table with Lin An saw John's coming, she immediately picked up the plate and left, the law of the forest of the weak and the strong was fully expressed in a cardamom girl who should not know the world, and the people around him regarded it as ordinary, and did not feel that John's bullying was weak.
After listening to John's words, Lin An put down the leg of mutton in his hand, looked left and right to find something to wipe his mouth, John took out a handkerchief from his arms and handed it to her, Lin An wiped the oil on his mouth with some embarrassment, and then said:
"I know!"
After all, her spiritual power is strong, and she is not completely imprisoned, and it is still okay to maintain the perception of an ordinary white robe, so as soon as she entered, she noticed the strength of the drinkers in the tavern, and then found the emblem of the mercenary union station on the bar.
"Don't worry about the assassins, although it's not clear if they're targeting me or including Rodiel. But since they borrowed the hand of Rodier to assassinate in such an obscure way, it is very likely that the people who have not seen it may not dare to show up in the imperial capital, after all, there are so many strong people in the imperial capital who are not pretending.
I'd like to see them out this time, but it's not a good chance. ”
After listening to this, John realized that Lin An's trip today was not entirely for relaxation and entertainment, and he couldn't help but feel hard for Lin An, but he knew that this was Lin An's consistent character.
He saw that Lin An's handkerchief was not enough to wipe his hands after wiping his mouth, and he felt funny, so he threw a silver coin to a passing wine lady and asked her to bring clean water and cloth towels.
The wine lady threw a flattering look at him, and saw that he ignored him, but it caused a burst of laughter from the surrounding drinkers, and some drinkers were drunk. Moved his hands and feet to the wine lady, and the spicy wine lady immediately lifted the tray, slammed it back, and scolded her for daring to touch the old lady with these things.
Not only were the drinkers not angry, but they were even more presumptuous in molesting the drinker.
John was a little unhappy, his face was not revealed, but he looked at Lin An, saw that she did not react, and said to him calmly:
"If you don't bring the other party out in the past two days, I'll tell you the inside story. The other party wastes a lot of energy to infiltrate the 'people' of his family, and it will not be without a purpose. ”
Their biggest advantage now is that the other party is probably not sure whether Lin An is aware of the inside story. Because although Lin An and the others destroyed the assassination, they were behind the scenes, and only they and Rodier knew the specific situation, and they neither turned their faces with Rodier, nor did they search the whole city. The person behind the scenes is probably at the bottom of the puzzle.
Of course, the disadvantage is also obvious, because Lin An can only passively wait for the other party to make a move, and choose to sue Sù Rodir, which is just the more active kind of passive, even if it destroys the chess pieces they have planted under Prince Cyril. Lin An didn't think that the person behind the scenes would be broken, if the other party was alert enough, after the dead man who was alive brought the news back. It should have been cleaned up by now.
After the wine lady got rid of the drinker, she walked away angrily, but she would not fight against the silver coin, and muttered a small basin of water, put on a cloth towel and brought it to Lin An.
When she came. I happened to see two half-grown boys walking by with their shoulders hooked and half-drunk, and they were bumped by the drinker next to them. happened to hit the table where Lin An was sitting.
Seeing that a teenager was about to touch Lin An, he immediately put the basin down, rushed up in two steps, and grabbed a hand that was stretched out to Lin An's waist while he was in chaos.
"Kira, you little bug, I've beaten you twice, and you dare to come to the 'Black Horns' to steal!"
The wine lady's shrill scream sounded, and the two thieves pushed her, turned around and ran away, and there was a noise in the tavern, and soon the two were twisted out by the two big men, begging for mercy and being twisted to the back door.
The drinkers were accustomed to the scene in front of them, and after seeing the excitement, they regained their original appearance, and some did not even raise their eyelids.
Lin An thanked the wine lady and put a gold rego on the table, and several nearby drinkers immediately turned their eyes over as if they had installed a radar, and the wine lady grabbed the gold rega, put it on her lips and kissed it heavily, but pouted at Lin An:
"I'm not helping you! I don't want you to lose your things and wait for those wolf dogs from the city guard to come and patronize it immediately, then we don't have to open this store! ”
As she spoke, she took Lin An's hand back after wiping her hands, and a vague voice came:
"Those two blind golden fingers...... I thought I had found the weakest fat sheep...... Almost dragged down all ...... Chopping hands ......"
The drinkers nearby who heard the words of the wine lady looked at Lin An and the others with a strange gaze.
“…… It's a noble ......."
“…… Have a nobleman come to this hellish place? ”
I don't know how they spread the news, in short, after a while, Lin An's identity spread at the speed of the spread of the plague, and the tavern was not completely quiet, but the atmosphere had changed strangely.
Of course, Lin An knew that this kind of atmosphere was called rejection, so he reluctantly put down a silver coin, got up and said, "Let's go." ”
Johnham got up and followed, his cold gaze swept away, and he met those eyes with rejection and indifference, and because of the disguise of his identity, he hid his evil qi and let it out, and immediately let the people who came into contact with his gaze retract their gaze like an electric shock, secretly frightened.
When Lin An left the front door of the "Black Horn", his keen ears heard a faint scream, which seemed to be the sound of a golden finger called Kira who had been twisted to the back door.
Her brows moved slightly, "What will happen to that goldfinger named Kira?" "Didn't you say they'd been caught twice? Moreover, this time it was just an attempt.
Before John's voice could be answered, he heard a hoarse male voice say:
"Cut off the tendons of your hands and throw them out of the civilian area.
Pompey had no place for them, for they had broken the rules and almost killed the entire tavern - they could steal a hundred rich merchants' money bags, but they could not touch a single copper coin of a nobleman, which was the rule of Pompey's golden finger on the road. ”
Lin An immediately understood what the wine lady meant by the city guards, and the reaction of the wine guests when they heard that they were nobles.
She looked at the man who had interjected.
His appearance is unruly, his messy hair and blue stubble almost cover his entire face, but a pair of dark eyes are bright, he is standing more than a dozen steps away looking at them, his clothes are half-worn and white, but they give people a clean feeling, and Lin An intuitively feels that he does not seem to belong to the civilian area.
"Who are you?"
John stared coldly at the man who had suddenly appeared, his right hand already on his waist. He felt a hidden danger in the other's upper body, even if the other party did not seem hostile.
"A man who is not worth remembering."
The man replied flatly, his voice was not Sidney's rhythmless flat plate, but with a taste of boredom, he looked at Lin An.
"You're Master Lin? Prince Cyril invites you to a private meeting. ”
(To be continued)
ps:
Thank you for the big reward from the party and Zhang Ga! o(n_n)o~
It's always been too high lately.,After completing these three chapters, it's still a little unfinished...... No, it should be said that the body is drowsy, and the spirit is still in high spirits == I really wonder if I have eaten too much recently and have been overnourished? Or did the fight scene finally go smoothly and boost my self-confidence?
Tomorrow should probably be a double watch.,Today's three watches should be pink!
Today's appearances:
Prince Cyril - the only brother of the emperor, with the only heir, Rodir, has no real power, and is close to the people.
