Chapter 64: The Man Who Hides in the Shadows (4)

"Although it was originally a storage room, it was still clean, so I can only ask you to take a while. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

Raising her eyes on the bridge of her nose, the little wizard said apologetically to the boy, who was shorter than her.

"It's okay, it's okay, as long as you can have a place to live. The panicked hat quickly waved his hand, he really didn't know why this good-looking wizard master would be so enthusiastic about himself: "This is already very good, I used to sleep on the street when I was in the barn!"

"Slept on the street?" Ai Yinlen paused, tears immediately appeared in his eyes, and he squatted down and stroked the messy hair of his hat: "Obviously at such a young age, he actually ......"

Why is this wizard crying, is this miserable? It's nice to sleep on the streets, and the hapless ones will be kicked into the gutter by the patrolling guards.

"Anyway, whatever you need, just come to me, or you can go to Loren. Ain's watery eyes flashed so well that he couldn't hide from his hat: "Don't forget not to leave the tower alone, it will be dangerous." ”

"Thank you, Master Wizard. A smile appeared on the hat's face: "You are such a good person, the Holy Cross will bless you." ”

Holy Cross ...... Thinking of Ai Yin, who was a witch, a bitter smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. In any case, the Holy Cross will not bless itself.

Just when the hat breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that this one was leaving. The little wizard turned around and stopped, "You and Loren met in Gumu Town, right?"

“...... Yes. The vigilant boy reacted immediately, and his almond-like eyes rolled twice before looking at Ain: "Is there something wrong with you?"

"Nothing else, just a little curious. Ai Yin, who pretended to be calm, looked out the door, and then whispered, "Can you tell me about what happened to him in Gumu Town?"

"Gumu Town?" Hat's expression became more vigilant, but he was really unwilling to refuse to this kind wizard master in person: "Well, if you really want to know ......"

Loren, who was standing outside the door, lowered his head, his eyes closed as if he was asleep, but the corners of his mouth were helplessly curled to prove that he was still awake, listening to the movements in the room word for word.

It took more than ten minutes for the door to be opened, and the little wizard with a somewhat heavy expression came out of the room without saying a word.

"Why has it been so long?"

The little wizard didn't answer him, but walked towards the stairs without raising his head, and Loren had to follow her. The two men came one after the other to Dalton Kander's door.

"You never told me you were doing such a dangerous thing. As he was about to reach the door, Ain stopped with his back to Loren: "Why don't you ...... in the first place?"

"Whatever you hear from the mouth of the hat, it's exaggerated. Before she could finish speaking, Loren spoke directly: "It's not that dangerous, at least for me, trust me." ”

"So you really hid outside the door and eavesdropped!" Ai Yin, who was blushing, immediately turned around, and his excited expression seemed to catch the mouse with his tail exposed: "I told you that you were not allowed to eavesdrop!"

You're waiting for me here...... Suddenly realized, Loren couldn't wait to slap him in the face.

I'm really stupid!

"You must be very proud now, right? yes, every time you leave, I look out for you like a fool!" "Ain, who clenched his fists tightly, stared at Loren with hatred, "You must be secretly laughing at me behind your back, right?!"

Loren was completely stupid, what did I do? Where am I? What should I do next?

"Or ...... I'll tell you another secret? Actually, I'm ......."

"You're useless, big liar—!" the angry little wizard slammed Loren away, rushing down the stairs like the wind, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

"Ain!" Loren, who knively reacted, immediately chased after him, but before he could get down the stairs, he heard another scream.

"Ain Rand, Mentor Dalton has clearly said that you are not allowed to make loud noises in the tower. And also...... Why did you hit me?"

"Why? because I'm stupid, our genius wizard!"

"I'm so glad for you that you confessed—you finally stopped lying to yourself!"

"Really, how about I make you a little happier?"

"I'm happier...... Ahh!!!h

The terrible scream made Loren gasp, patted his chest and walked to Dalton's door as if nothing had happened.

Isaac, that's good! Loren silently gave him a thumbs up in his heart.

"What are they arguing about?"

Dalton in the study frowned, staring at Loren as he walked through the door without a trace of emotion.

"Nothing, business as usual. Loren closed the door with his backhand, and pretended to be calm and showed a smile: "Is there anything you want me to do?"

Dalton didn't bother to answer him, but his gaze grew colder.

"There's no direct evidence that the hat was a spy who sneaked in to spy on us. Shaking his head, the corners of Loren's mouth hooked slightly: "But I'm not saying that he is not suspicious." ”

"I remember you were willing to vouch for him. ”

"That doesn't mean I believe him, but I believe he can't escape. Dalton was not satisfied with this answer, and Loren had to change his approach: "The hat is just a little beggar, and even if he really escaped, he can't know much." ”

"But if he's the other party's spy?"

Then he wouldn't be willing to tell us. After taking a few steps forward, Loren, who was holding his hands behind his back, sighed slightly: "For this kind of slippery head that mixes the streets, simple intimidation is useless, you have to make him completely afraid." ”

"Then let him be afraid. The black-robed wizard replied as a matter of course: "In this world, there are many ways to torture people. ”

"Even if he's really scared, there's no complete guarantee that they're telling the truth - they can tell any lie in order to survive, and you can't guess that one is true!"

Even a wizard can't have the means to make people tell the truth absolutely, at least not Dalton. After hesitating for a moment, he raised his eyes and looked at Loren: "What's your solution?"

"Give him a chance to show himself. A strange smile appeared on Loren's face: "If he was really sent by that Mr. Karan, then he must have been given a mission." As long as he has the opportunity, he himself will be exposed, and then we can justifiably ask him. ”

"Are you sure?"

Loren knew what Dalton was worried about, once the vampire in the academy was really discovered, even a small beggar could put the academy in a situation from which it could never be recovered - secretly hiding this kind of monster that could slaughter the entire village in an instant, no matter how much the Duke believed them, it was impossible for him to continue to vouch for the academy.

"I'm confident enough, and I'm sure the other side can't be completely sure - otherwise why would they just let a little beggar come to the door?"

Rhetorical Loren's tone was very firm, and he approached Dalton's desk little by little: "There is only one thing - I need the absolute trust of you and Abbot Peter, and the freedom of the entire Vimpal Castle to be unwatched. ”

"Mentor Dalton, I know that I may well have touched upon some of the Academy's most remarkable secrets, and I know that you have no reason to trust me, an outsider who has only been here for a few months - but please at least have faith in my abilities, and although there have been some surprises before, I have done it perfectly. ”

Dalton agreed.

This is the benefit of having real merit, which can be used as a strong proof to make the other person believe in yourself when you need it.

If he hadn't worked hard in the past few months to solve all the tasks given to him by the other party, then it would be impossible for Dalton to make such a big decision with just a few words, giving Loren the privilege of freedom of movement throughout the Wimpal Academy.

As for whether Dalton really believed in himself that much, Loren smiled bitterly in his heart.

Anyway, when this matter is over, it will be merciful enough for him not to kill himself.
