Just as Fran and Ezreal Walter had just met, Mary was staying with Count Henri de Lagash Treville to discuss things, as Fran knew.

As soon as he entered the meeting room of Mary's suite, Henry, who had changed into a set of civilian clothes, saluted Mary courteously, and then sat down. Then he looked at Mary cautiously.

"Mademoiselle de Léorent, in the telegram that Monsieur de Treville sent me, he has something to tell me through you, what is the matter?"

This young earl, under the care of Charles in the past few years, has gotten rid of the original state of depression, faintly more young and promising, everyone knows that he is a relative of the Trevill family, no one dares to underestimate him, he can be regarded as smooth sailing in recent years, so not only has his aura changed, but even the skin that was originally soaked in the sea has slowly turned whiter.

However, even so, he did not dare to show that kind of spirit in front of Mary.

For Mary was a very beautiful woman—not just from the point of view of respecting women, but from a more important point of view.

Mary, who went out, has been carefully dressed up, and now it can be said that she is glamorous. She wore a fluffy skirt, and against the white skin on her chest, the ravine looked particularly deep.

When they first met at the station, Henry secretly guessed that the young lady must have had some abnormal relationship with his distant relative—and he had no doubt it by now.

He definitely slept! It's strange to have such beautiful people around, not sleeping! At this moment, a flash of realization flashed through Henry's heart. Then there was a faint hint of jealousy for his distant relative who was in the capital and was hot, and whom he had also seen with his wife, Charlotte, who was also the daughter of his relative, the Duke of Treville. It's also beautiful.

A person who has climbed to a high position at a young age can still enjoy such blessings. It's so enviable.

But soon this jealousy gave way to deliberate reverence and humility - since this was the lover of his protector, he could never show any frivolity or neglect, not at all.

"It's not easy to do, and I should say that Sir wants to ask you for a favor." Mary replied in a low voice. "And he needs you to keep it a secret."

Help? When he heard this word, Henry's heart couldn't help but tighten. Being able to ask for help from over there will not be a trivial matter no matter how you look at it.

But he knew it too. There is no room for refusal, although the other side is polite, but if he dares to refuse, the consequences may be difficult for him to bear.

"Sir, if you need me to do something, don't say it so politely, just ask me to do it, and I will do my best to cooperate." He straightened up and replied very seriously.

"It's great that you're so positive." Mary smiled and nodded, but maybe it was a matter of habit. There was always something sarcastic in her smile, but it was certainly not disgusting. "Actually, you don't have to be so nervous, if nothing else, it shouldn't cause you any trouble."

"Please tell me more." Henry's heart was slightly relieved.

Mary's smile slowly faded. It has also become serious.

"Sir, do you know anyone from customs?"

"We know, and we know each other better." Henry replied immediately.

After all, Henry served in the Navy for many years. So he also has some friendship with the people in the customs, and he has slowly made his fortune in recent years. In order to expand his social circle, he also deliberately made friends with people in all aspects of Marseille. So it's not a boast to say it's cooked.

"Okay, please inform the people you know at the customs, and ask them to check in detail for a while." Mary lowered her voice deliberately, "At this time, in the ships that come to the port of Marseille, the passports of everyone who arrives at the port must be carefully checked, this kind of passport is deliberately marked by the gentleman, and there is no problem with the appearance, but in fact it is very easy to find people from the markings. What you need to do is to go through customs, find out who are coming, and then follow their whereabouts and don't let them run away. ”

"Passport?" Henry was a little confused, "Are you saying that the gentleman wants us to find some people from among the people who have returned home?" Their passports are forged? ”

"No, the passport was specially issued to them by the gentleman, and it is genuine." Mary shrugged, "It's just that they've been marked so you can find them." ”

"A genuine passport with special markings?" Henry felt a little confused. "This ...... Why is that? ”

"There aren't so many whys in this world, Count." Mary smiled and replied, "Actually, I don't know exactly what happened, but I guess it doesn't affect our mission, right?" ”

"You're right......" Henry felt a little embarrassed, "of course I'm happy to be of Mr. Treville—"

"It's not just for the gentleman alone, you can think of this as a secret diplomatic mission." Mary paused deliberately, then smiled a slightly sneering, "Yes, you are in the service of your country in a sense. ”

Secret diplomatic missions to serve the country...... These words lifted Henry's spirits even more.

He knew that what the other party said might not only be untrue, but whether it was true or not, as long as that person said so, I am afraid that even if it was false, it must be true.

"Is it enough to find them?" He asked tentatively.

"I'm afraid it's not quite enough." Mary shook her head, dismissing Henry's luck. "You'll have to send a few trustworthy people with someone else sent by Mr. to find them. Your people are familiar with the local area, and you can lead the way. ”

Still want to help arrest people? It was getting more and more troublesome, and Henry felt a little tight on his scalp.

As if sensing his hesitation, Mary raised her head slightly, and the smile on her beautiful face grew deeper and deeper.

"Sir said, if you think it's troublesome, it's okay not to help with this......"

Where is the option not to help? Henry sighed inwardly.

"Of course, I am very happy to serve the country." He stood up, then bowed.

"That's for the best." Mary smiled and nodded at the other as well. "I thank you for my son."

It is indeed convenient to borrow the authority of the Shire, and it is easy to achieve the effect of scaring people. But she doesn't like to be seen as a stupid woman who can only bully others, so she just stops.

"Don't be so polite. As I said, I would be happy to serve him. Henry smiled reluctantly, "It's just that I want to find out who else the gentleman has sent?" That way, I could have prepared earlier. ”

"They'll come to you when the time comes............"

"Bang!"

Suddenly, out of nowhere, there was a loud and muffled sound, interrupting the conversation between the two people.

What's going on? Did it thunder? Henry's head suddenly shook.

No, it's not thunder, it's like someone......

Haven't waited for Henry's head to form an idea. Suddenly, a fragrant wind reached his nose again. Then he saw a figure flash past him.

The door was slammed open, and Mary rushed out with unimaginable speed, just as Henry finally reacted.

Damn, Miss Trevier is still here! Don't......

He was startled, and then rushed after Mary. As he rushed, he secretly prayed that the worst would not come true.

If it's true, I'm afraid he can only quickly disguise himself and change his name and surname to the end of the world...... Just getting ahead, who can accept that they have fallen into this situation?

Between his gains and losses. Mary had rushed to the door with unimaginable speed, and then knocked heavily on it.

"Who?" Immediately, a question rang out inside.

He can still speak, and his voice is very calm, and it seems that nothing serious has happened...... Mary's heart suddenly felt relieved.

"It's me? What's wrong? Mary immediately replied in a low voice at the door.

"Come in first." Fran said. While gently pulling the door open.

As soon as she walked in, she saw Fran with a gun in her hand.

"You ......," she opened her mouth in shock.

In front of her, Fran was standing quietly in front of her, cold and surprisingly calm.

And her eyes were quickly drawn to something else.

Pool of blood...... A young man already in a pool of blood.

The young man seemed to have fainted. But the faces she knew.

"you X!" In her excitement, she cursed without thinking a foul word that was completely inconsistent with her upbringing.

And then. In an instant, she turned and ran back to the door. Then a small crack in the door was opened.

And at this moment, Henry had already run to the door.

"Don't come in!" Mary leaned her face to the crack in the door and yelled at Henry.

Her expression was so serious that Henry was speechless in shock, and froze as she prepared to knock on the door.

"Excuse me...... Just ...... Just now, what's going on......"

"Miss is fine, it's just that she accidentally knocked over a box just now." Mary stared at the other party coldly, "She's still changing clothes, you stay outside the door first, and send all the people who rushed over to me away!" ”

Is that knocking over a box? Henry was still a little incredulous.

"But ......"

"There's nothing but, you stand for me first!" Mary was impatient and shouted at him, "Do you think it's appropriate for someone to come and disturb Miss?" ”

Her words are not untrue, but they carry an unquestionable oppressive force. Only then did Henry discover that this beautiful woman, who had always been smiling, was so aggressive inside.

Maybe she can really tear me apart...... For a moment, a strange thought suddenly rose in his head.

"Uh...... Belch...... You're right. He replied subconsciously.

"Then wait here!" Mary said no more and closed the door again.

When the door was shut, Mary let out a heavy breath, and her whole body seemed to be relaxed.

But soon she regained her composure and walked over to Fran's side.

"You just shot him?"

"Yes, I hit it." Fran replied calmly. "I don't know how this guy found out about our whereabouts, but he came running by pretending to be a waiter."

"This guy ......," Mary frowned, looking at Ezreal Walter in a pool of blood, "what the gentleman said to him, if he dared to pester you and him again, he would definitely not spare him, how can this man be so ignorant of life and death!" ”

"He probably thinks he can save me." Fran's face was still calm, "He said he was going to save me, and he said that he would take advantage of this trade with the De-Beauwang family to get my brother's handle, and then threaten him to let me go." ”

"This guy's brain is in the water?" Mary looked incredulous, "Sir is such a vulnerable person? ”

"He wants to be a hero with all his heart, what can he do......" Fran sank his face, "I don't need a hero at all, and I've hinted several times that he can leave and never have anything to do with us again, but he has to...... And I knew so many things, I couldn't help it, so after thinking about it carefully, I had to do it myself. ”

"I don't have the ability to be a blind hero, I really deserve to die!" Because she had already called several times, Mary did not have any pity for Ezreal, "If you don't leave, you will be satisfied with your life, right?" ”

"I ...... I shouldn't have killed him. Fran said hesitantly.

"What?" Mary was taken aback.

"I deliberately didn't hit the target." Fran replied in a low voice. "I just looked at it, and he really didn't get fatally injured, he just fainted."

After she said this, Mary also looked more closely, and found that the young man had indeed only fainted, and there was a pulse and a heartbeat.

"Why don't you just get rid of it? It is better for such people to die than to live. Mary looked at Fran with some confusion, "We've spared him so many times......

"He's kind to me, and I don't want to kill him just because of that." Fran shook her head slightly, indicating that she had something else in mind.

Then, after a moment's hesitation, she spoke again. "Also, I suspect he's also in the Trevier bloodline. Maybe...... Maybe it'...... Never mind. ”

"What?! Mary was even more shocked, and her eyes widened.

"It's nothing, it's just a guess on my part, otherwise something would be hard to explain." Fran bit her lip and tried to appear calm, "But it doesn't matter, I don't want to pursue it further." Now, we have to figure out a way to deal with the aftermath as much as possible. ”

Mary frowned.

"Since you don't want to just get rid of it, then you have to let the person outside the door help clean up the aftermath." After a few moments, she came to her conclusions.

"Can he be trusted?" Fran was a little worried. "Even though it's a relative......

"Does he dare to be unreliable?" Mary asked rhetorically.

The two men glanced at each other.

"Well, then count on him." Fran slowly walked over to the trunk and gently put the gun back. (To be continued.) )
