Chapter 228: Reason
Luo Yin?
At first hearing this name, Lan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly, and his handsome face became solemn, looking at that look, he obviously knew this name.
If you want to talk about the reason, it needs to be traced back to more than half a year ago, in the assassination of the dragon ship, the captain of the Shadow Force, Ulna, died very strangely under his own gun, Javier attached great importance to this, and asked Lan to conduct an in-depth investigation on this matter, but unfortunately in the end he could not find out any results.
It was the battle of Cool Breeze Town, where Javier defeated the ambush set by Minister Ornest, which made Lan know about Luo Yin for the first time afterwards, and even Javier spoke highly of him, and even laughed at himself for a time and fell into a bitter battle, and he didn't know if this was a fact or a humble statement.
I just heard from the captain that Luo Yin had been killed by him in that battle...... So what's going on with this guy in front of him who calls himself Luo Yin?
Counterfeits? Or did this man use some means to deceive the captain's eyes by faking his death?
Lan thinks that the latter is more likely, after all, Luo Yin is a person from the dark world, his reputation is not obvious, even if he is impersonated, there is no benefit at all, and if the captain knows about it, it may invite trouble.
As long as you know how to pursue advantages and avoid disadvantages, you will not do such stupid things.
With some logical reasoning and speculation, Lan Ji has already touched the truth of the matter.
"My name is Lan, and I'm a subordinate of General Javier."
Lan leaned against the wall and walked to Luo Yin with some difficulty, only then did he smile gently and introduce himself aloud.
"I know you, when you were still assassinating the troops, because of the needs of work, I wrote down the appearance and information of each member of the 'Falcon'." Luo Yin said flatly.
What this so-called work need means, the three people present can understand it without saying it explicitly, it is nothing more than the matter of killing people.
Now that the past is in the wind, and even Ornest, the culprit, is dead, how can Elan's heart still care about this? It's just that I can't help but laugh a little emotionally, who would have thought that the original enemy would be transformed into his own savior?
Lan Duan gave Luo Yin a straight salute, and his words were full of sincerity: "Thank you for saving me, if it weren't for your help, I'm afraid I would have become a floating corpse in the Grand Canal." ”
"It's a gesture."
"But...... There's a question I really don't understand, I don't know if I can ask it? ”
"You say."
"You used to be a killer for Onest, and in terms of our relationship, you are friend or foe no matter how you look at it...... Why would you risk saving your enemies? Aren't you afraid that I will turn my face afterwards and convey the news that you are not dead to General Javier? ”
Lan's deep yellow eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked directly at Luo Yin, with a bit of inquiry, without letting go of any expression on the latter's face.
Although it is very rude to doubt his savior in this way, in this situation, it is impossible for Lan to trust a stranger he meets for the first time without reservation.
What's more, whether it was Luo Yin's first impression on him, or what the captain said about Luo Yin's style of acting, it all told Lan that this man was bold and ruthless, and he was definitely not a good type.
Such a person, even if he is not a heinous person, it is difficult to imagine that he would do something that is not in his own interests.
So even if Luo Yin saved himself, Lan's first reaction after calming down was to guess the other party's true intentions in his heart, weighing whether this man was friend or foe.
And the final answer depends on how Luo Yin responds to his doubts.
Luo Yin was silent for a while when he heard this, as if he was thinking, and before he could speak, the horse head on the side couldn't help but jump to his feet and stand up, his voice full of anger.
"What's the matter with you! The predecessors were kind enough to save you, but they still speculated on others with sinister intentions! Stand there and don't move, I'm going to throw you into the river today! ”
The horse's face was not good, and he rolled up his sleeves and wanted to move forward, but was quietly held down by Luo Yin.
"Senior! Don't stop me! I'm going to teach him a lesson! Ma Tou said indignantly.
Luo Yin still looked calm and expressionless, but the palm on the shoulder of the horse's head increased the force, and scolded: "Shut up!" ”
The horse's head stiffened, and the fire in his stomach seemed to have been suddenly extinguished by a basin of cold water, and he didn't dare to disobey Luo Yin's words, so he retreated timidly and stood behind Luo Yin.
Luo Yin raised his head, did not shy away from Lan's gaze, and said a name with a faint expression: "Barov Grinks." ”
Lan was slightly stunned, and didn't react for a while: "What?" ”
"This is my friend's name, the former chief master of the Huangquan Temple." Luo Yin said in a low voice, "A stupid person who originally aspired to protect the empire, but in the end, he went further and further down the wrong path......"
Hearing this, Lan's brows couldn't help frowning, and he said coldly: "I remember, this person once guarded Earnest during the civil war in the imperial capital, and was finally killed by Captain Javier...... Why mention him now? Are you planning to take revenge on the captain? ”
Luo Yin shook his head and said, "Revenge is a meaningless thing, especially for someone like me who has been in the dark for a long time, and he understands this truth best...... When I mention Barov, I'm just answering your question. ”
"How?"
"Although Barov has taken the wrong path, his desire to protect the empire is not fake, and now that the imperial capital is in the hands of the revolutionary army, I don't think this is the result he wants to see......"
Luo Yin paused, and said: "Having said that, I didn't think of intervening in the struggle between the empire and the revolutionary army for this reason, but since I happened to meet you who were dying, and I saved you out of reason, I should have fulfilled a little bit of my duty as a friend...... What do you think of this explanation? ”
When Luo Yin spoke, Lan looked into his eyes the whole time, and he didn't see the slightest wavering and disguise from it, only the word frankness.
After a long time, Lan exhaled lightly, his expression relaxed, and said seriously: "Enough, I have been able to confirm that you have no hostility towards the Empire...... Also, sorry. ”
He was apologizing for his suspicion and suspicion, no matter what the reason, his attitude just now was indeed rude, if he changed to a bad-tempered master's family, I am afraid it would be possible to throw him out directly.
"Hey, who doesn't know your apology!" Ma Tou snorted angrily, "I said we are not your enemies a long time ago, but I still don't believe it!" What I hate the most is that you scribes with many hearts and eyes, who are full of bad water and don't talk about it, and look at everyone as if they are wearing colored glasses...... Oops! ”
But it was Luo Yin who hit her head mercilessly, ignoring the pitiful eyes of the horse head, Luo Yin said indifferently: "You have your own position, if it were me, I wouldn't casually believe the two suspicious people who suddenly appeared around you...... It's just human nature, and it's not something that needs to be apologized for. ”
Lan smiled bitterly and did not answer.
"What are your plans after that?" Luo Yin asked again.
Lan thought for a moment and said, "I'll probably search the area around here for a while to see if I can find Miss Spiya, and then ...... There may also be a trip to Ruyao City, and there are some personal matters that need to be dealt with. ”
Luo Yin nodded, and didn't specifically ask Lan what his private affairs were, this was not something he should be concerned about, but said: "Your injuries are not healed now, and it is not suitable for you to travel a long distance, I suggest that you stay here and continue to recuperate for a while, and when your condition improves, it is not too late to leave." ”
Lan also knew that his current physical condition was very poor, and he couldn't even stand steadily, let alone go out to find someone, so he didn't refuse the other party's kindness and said, "Then bother." ”
