Chapter 187: Interlude: The Hall of Mist

Two hours ago, in the autumn white pond in the north of the city, the sunset was reflected in the lake, and the soil at the bottom of the lake and the fluttering aquatic plants could still be seen scattered red light lines.

Yuan Jin stood on the water's edge terrace with his hands behind his back, looking down at the sunset over the lake.

There is no wind blowing at the water's edge, but this time is neither hot nor cold, and it is especially pleasant to sit on a wicker chair in the distance and watch it for an afternoon.

But he didn't have that kind of mood.

He was captivated by what appeared in the afterglow.

Long jet-black hair.

White skin.

Long beige dress.

On the long terrace, not far from Yuan Jin's left-hand side, stood a woman, her hands on the railing, but looking up at the sunset.

The woman nodded at Yuan Jin and turned around, and Yuan Jin's eyes followed the woman's footsteps and landed in the bright room.

Floor-to-ceiling windows make the hall look bright at dusk, and with bright crystal chandeliers, a Chinese-style round dining table that can accommodate more than a dozen people, at first glance it looks like a VIP box in a high-end hotel, but this is indeed a hall built by the Yuan family two years ago.

The "Hall of Mists" was named by Yuan Jin and was generally used to entertain distinguished guests, but at this time he had more important things to announce to everyone.

Yuan Jin walked into the house and found that everyone had arrived, so he nodded to everyone and sat down generously on the main seat, and everyone sat in order, half young and half old.

Yuan Jin didn't speak and thought about how to speak, Yuan Mei on his left didn't seem to have turned on the talking mode, for a while there was only the sound of bowls and spoons colliding, everyone was very polite to pick up vegetables with each other, occasionally one or two people made a joke, everyone laughed, and they were happy for a while.

Yuan Jin, the young master who was originally very famous in the Yuan family, has been known to everyone for his name and enterprising behavior in the five years since he won the Qiubaitan and engagement incidents. However, he was not very satisfied with himself, after all, he was responsible for the Yuan family's so many mouths.

He was more concerned about what the Shinnogumi did, causing everyone to start turning their attention to the combination of the boy and Yanagi Shin.

And now everyone projects strange eyes on him from time to time.

Yuan Jin tapped the plate with a stainless steel spoon, making a tinkling sound.

All of a sudden it was quiet.

"Everyone, at noon, I reached an agreement with the True Group and the Lin family, and the Lin family will withdraw from Qinglongwu tomorrow, which means ......"

Don't have to fight? Or what does that mean?

Everyone was looking forward to Yuan Jin's next words in confusion.

"In addition, most of the Mannoku's staff are involved in cases involving the Muggle world, and I heard that Sidgar has also gone."

"Also, I branched out the juniors of the Yuan family, so I ......"

The tall Yuan Jin scanned everyone solemnly.

"Tonight is critical."

Tonight was critical, and everyone understood it at once.

If you don't act tonight, you will fight Qinglongwu in the future, and it will be troublesome when the agreement takes effect.

"Brother, I have a bolder plan," Yuan Mei wiped her mouth excitedly, "Go directly to Liu Zhen's back and kill her." ”

"No," Yuan Jin raised his left hand, as if to block his sister's sight, and after scanning everyone, he said to the air directly in front of him, "You are all the backbone of the Yuan family, I want to hear everyone's opinions." ”

Everyone was speechless for a while, and two or three people looked at each other.

"Uncle Qian (Qian Wen, the third stage of the magic envoy retires)," Yuan Jin turned his gaze to the white-haired old man in the second seat on his right, "You are the chief military advisor of my family, and my father has been relying on your advice for a while, and it is also your plan to capture Qiubaitan, can you talk about it first?" ”

After the old man pursed his lips for a while, he looked at Yuan Jin unhurriedly and said, "The eldest lady's method is certainly feasible, but if you do it too ostentatious, it will arouse the anger of the Muggle world......

Yuan Mei showed a dissatisfied expression towards Qian Wen, and Qian Wen suddenly smiled and said, "Contemptible people have a bolder way." ”

"What's the solution?" Yuan Jin sat up straight.

"I heard that the True Group is in the Civic Square, and we will win the True Collar in one fell swoop tonight."

Everyone was shocked.

"Is it really like a direct attack?" Yuan Jin asked.

"That's right, Master Dao Yan lives alone all year round, so I took this opportunity to kill him." The old man said unhurriedly.

"Won't it be too far?" One of them said.

"The soldier is treacherous," Qian Wen stretched out his wrinkled fingers and gestured on the table, "What's more, if you succeed in winning the Zhenru Ling, then it will be worth exchanging the original two places of the Yuan family." ”

"It makes sense." Two or three people nodded slowly.

Yuan Jin suddenly showed embarrassment, and said, "Dao Yan Mage is too powerful, although he is a heroic spirit, his strength is equivalent to the level of the eighth or ninth rank of the magic envoy, what should I do?" ”

"If you don't alarm the Lin family," Qian Wen scratched his cheek and said, "it's possible for four or five people to kill him together." ”

Hearing this, Yuan Jin leaned back in the chair and closed his eyes.

The strength of Dao Yan that he saw at noon was indeed real, but after all, he was old, and neither the circuit nor his physical strength should be able to withstand a protracted battle, if this dangerous move was accurate......

But what should I do if I anger Liu Zhen, according to Liu Zhen's strength, killing a dozen magicians is a matter of an instant.

Could this old man be thinking wrong?

"Asmo is weak now, the mechanical dog case is about to be solved, and the prestige of the True Group is now high, why should their hatred be aroused all at once?"

"Don't worry," Qian Wen said, "Liu Zhen, this little girl, used to be a loner and did things without considering the interests of others, and she has offended many people in the past three years, not to mention that she is not protected by the Convention now, we can contact the family who is dissatisfied with her and gather the strength of everyone to kill her." ”

Such a vicious scheme, Yuan Jin couldn't help but take a deep breath, but once there is a trace of negligence, my Yuan family will be finished.

"What about Qinglongwu's plan?"

In fact, the plan that Yuan Jin threw out at the beginning was to attack Qinglongwu, otherwise he would not be able to hang up, after all, he and his sister boasted about Haikou in private.

Qian Wen frowned, his gaze fell on the table and stopped talking.

"If you take it directly, it's okay." Yuan Mei said suddenly.

"Don't worry." Yuan Jin stretched out his hand and waved at Yuan Mei, and then looked at the woman on his right.

Long black hair and a long beige dress.

"Senior sister, what is your opinion?" Yuan Jin said as he reached out and scooped a bowl of soup for her.

"Thank you, young master." She took a sip of the soup and put the bowl down, "Actually, I don't agree with Uncle Qian's opinion. ”

Her words couldn't help but be a little heavier.

However, this is the consistent style of the senior sister.

Perhaps because her seat was even more noble than Qian Wen, her voice was quite calm.

"Huh?" Yuan Mei said suddenly, which made her attract everyone's attention.

"Senior sister's name is Han Wu," Yuan Mei pretended to be curious and pointed to the sign at the door, "right." ”

Senior sister grew up with us since childhood, isn't it obvious?! Yuan Jin was dissatisfied with his sister.

"That's right," Han Wu bowed slightly, "I've been in charge of the defense of the Kanghe Bridge, so I've been greeting the eldest lady for a long time, please forgive me." ”

"Senior sister, go on." Yuan Jin smiled at Han Wu.

"So," Han Wu looked down after thinking for a moment before looking up, "My plan is not to attack anyone." ”

"No one will attack?"

"Yes, although the Commission prohibits excavation, there is not enough means to stop us, we can excavate and produce armaments with sufficient precautions, and ......"

Speaking of this, Han Wu suddenly shut up.

"But it doesn't hurt to say it."

Han Wu took a deep breath and looked directly at Yuan Jin, "I hope I can send someone to help the True Group." ”
