Chapter Forty-Six: Ginger is still old and spicy
"Obviously, the murderer has considerable strength, and if you want to ambush the murderer, you must have enough strength, otherwise you may be bitten by the murderer, and even give your life.
Because there are too many suspicious locations, and there is a serious shortage of manpower right now, I am in great need of people like Your Excellency, so please don't refuse! Please! ”
The head of the five knight families is so pleased, how big is this face? Although Felik didn't want to help at all, he couldn't find a reason to refuse at the moment.
Felik's face darkened.
Sure enough, the upper echelons of the imperial capital are all very cunning guys, and it is better to deal with them as little as possible in the future.
Glancing at Jon, Felik smiled slightly, feeling in his heart that he had to come up with a means to press the bottom of the box in the end.
Uncle, although your routine is very deep, it's a pity that I also have countermeasures!
Look at it, let's take a look at the earth-shattering conspiracy of Lord Ben - [Plan No. 1: Accidents!] 】
"Ahem!" Felik coughed, reached out and gently touched his left ear.
Ding~~咣——!
At this moment, the glass next to the restaurant shattered without warning!
A petite figure rushed into the restaurant like a lightning bolt that cut through the space.
She grabbed a pitch-black dagger and stepped on the dining table, her beautiful sweeping leg smashing the plate and kicking the food away.
It was only then that everyone could see who it was, it was a man in black with half a masked face, about one meter five tall, pale golden broken hair without wind, and those exposed eyes were shining, looking directly at Jon with a fierce murderous intent.
Yes, that's Felik's original plan! Keep Afra on her at all times, and when he sends out the code, she rushes into the mansion to cover her escape from the scene!
Although Afra's attack power is very weak, she has extreme speed, and she is the best at covering and supporting, and with her interfering with the enemy, it is naturally easy to leave this place.
This is Felick's plan number one: the unexpected!
But now the situation has to change a little, he can't let Afra mess around, after all, he just wants to get out of here, and the two sides don't have to have a direct conflict.
At the last moment, Felik shouted, "There are assassins!" Leave me alone! ”
A stool slammed onto the table and a punch at Afra, a punch that seemed quick to others, but Felik knew that with Afra's agility, it would be easy to dodge the punch.
Sure enough, seeing Felik attacking him, Afra's eyes flashed with surprise, and her flexible waist twisted like a water snake, easily dodging this sudden punch.
And in the next second, Felik himself threw himself into Afra's arms, raised Afra's elbow quietly with his right hand, and let the other party put the dagger on his neck, shouting: "Oops, I was held hostage~~!" ”
Although he knows that his acting skills are clumsy, he can make the other party understand without a script, and there is only this kind of direct lines.
Sure enough, the other party is worthy of Felik's most optimistic black-bellied little Lori, his brain is spinning fast, and he understood what he meant in an instant.
She shouted, "Don't come here!" Otherwise I'll kill him! ”
With Afra's shout, the restaurant fell silent as deathly, and everyone was shaken in place.
Seeing this scene, the corners of Afra's mouth under the masked cloth rose slightly, revealing a smug smile, which seemed to her to be very effective.
However, Felik was devastated, as an Assassin, Afra's shout was too much of a failure.
The young girl's unique immature timbre is easily recognizable, and the cute child's voice covers up all the deterrence that it should have, and more importantly, because her voice is not fully developed, this loud roar - broken.
"Don't move!" Jon shouted orders to the guards rushing in around him, his face looking like he was facing a great enemy.
Felik's reaction puzzled Felik, was Jon really afraid of Afra?
Wrong! The other party's eyes are on Afra's dagger!
In an instant, Felik understood that Jon was afraid of the dagger made from the rotten fangs of the bone dragon in Afra's hand.
Great, this way to leave without a hitch, Felik secretly rejoiced.
He planned well, and he left the Howell family under the "hostage" of Afra, and then returned to the royal city.
If Jon came to the door again, he would say that he had tried his best to repel the Assassin that day, but he was also seriously injured, and that he could rely on this excuse to turn them down.
Everything went according to Felik's plan, and Afra held Felik hostage and slowly retreated, because of the height difference between the two, Felik had to cooperate with Afra to squat down so that the other party could put the dagger around his neck.
It's just that this posture is quite tiring and looks extremely unconforming.
It's finally at the door, and with a little bit of effort, you'll be able to get out of here!
As soon as Felik breathed a sigh of relief, he caught his eye on the familiar figure at the door, with long aqua blue hair and dull eyes, wasn't it Belina!
An ominous premonition suddenly arose in his heart, and before Felik could pray, the next second the premonition was perfectly fulfilled.
"Eh~~~, Captain, why did you fight with Afra?"
Belina said in surprise, her light green eyes staring at the two people not far away.
Afra was so clever that she ignored Belina and shouted a few threats at the approaching guards.
Despite Afra's excellent acting skills and perfect on-the-spot reactions, Felik knew that the plan had failed, because he knew Belina's IQ well, and with that guy's IQ, it was impossible to understand such a complex situation, and the incomprehensible consequence was the collapse of the script.
"Afra, how can you hold the regimental commander with a knife! Let go! ”
Because she had been promised a great sword, Belina was impatient to show her loyalty, and she immediately stepped forward to persuade the two to pull apart, completely shattering Felik's improvised plan to the point where there was no room for redemption.
"Captain, are you alright?"
Belina looked at Felik with a concerned expression, her expression quite smug, as if she thought she would be praised.
But when she saw Felik's terrifying and cold eyes, Belina's heart was cold, her brows furrowed, and she realized that things were not so simple.
"Huh."
Felik let out two sneers, and he reached out to put his hand around Belina's shoulder, shaking his head in disappointment, looking at Belina as if he were looking at a terminally ill patient.
"Belina, I know you're slow to react, but I didn't expect it to be so slow, compared to you, stalactites are growing faster, you should go and top up your IQ."
Although she knew what she had done wrong, Belina didn't quite understand: "Commander, I'...... Did you do something wrong? ”
Felik sighed helplessly: "It's okay, it's all the regiment commander's fault, I'll take you to read more books when I go back." ”
He didn't want to continue the topic anymore.
Jon in the distance understood this farce, but he didn't get angry, but walked forward with a smile: "Your Excellency just ......?" ”
"Joke, just joke! Hahaha! Felik smiled stiffly.
"Can you do me that little favor then?"
"Well......" Felik still looked hesitant.
"If you do me a favor, then you are a friend of the Howell family, and what happened just now was just a little joke between you and me, and the head of the Howell family, but if you ......"
Jon emphasized the words Howell's head of the house.
Before the other party could finish speaking, Felik raised his hand to signal that the other party didn't need to say any more, and his expression changed and became extremely serious.
"It's unforgivable for this kind of thing to happen in the imperial capital, no one will stand idly by!"
Jon nodded in satisfaction and smiled, knowing that he had a firm grip on Felik in the palm of his hand.
