After the shopkeeper gently closed the door of the room, the man heard the sound of the door closing at the same time, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

However, he didn't turn around in a hurry, and the shopkeeper was also quietly waiting at the door, and didn't take the initiative to say anything.

The man gradually quieted down around him, and then when the voice of someone outside appeared, he began to ask about the key things of the day.

"What is the reason for this visit, can you get accurate information?"

"Yes, sir. Early this morning, I found the inn you mentioned, and at the same time disguised myself as the second shopkeeper, and met the twelve princes in the inn, this inn is on the edge of the border city, not a difficult place to find. After I met the Twelve Princes, I vaguely asked about the whereabouts of the Twelve Princes. He didn't hesitate too much, saying that he was going to go out for a bite to eat. ”

When the shopkeeper said this, he paused for a second or two, in order to say the more detailed words in combination with association.

The man was not in a hurry, listening to what the shopkeeper said, he did not rush to interrupt his questioning, but waited for him to finish speaking.

"The Twelve Princes said that they wanted to go out for a walk, and asked me to help him change the tea in his room, and he also wanted me to remember to help him keep the room in this inn where he stayed last night, and he would come back again in the evening, which is roughly the same thing."

The shopkeeper never looked up at the person in front of him until he finished speaking, but bowed his head to him, as if saluting.

After recalling what Ivan had said today, the shopkeeper told him directly, and it was basically like this.

Although the man turned his back to the shopkeeper, he had a suspicious expression on his face, obviously not particularly believing what he said.

Even if he said it so reasonably, it didn't affect the man's suspicion of the shopkeeper, whether he was hiding something.

Coupled with the several pieces of information in this statement, if all of them are put together, even if there are true and false, I don't know which is true and which is false.

At most, I can only be sure that Ivan will definitely stay in the border city this morning, and even if he wants to go out, it is impossible to leave early in the morning.

For the information that is known, the man still has some uncertainties, or the probability of victory is in hand, and asks him again.

"Did the Twelve Princes say anything else to you?"

"No, that's all the Twelve Princes said, and he was very polite at the time. After saying these things to me, he hurried away, and did not say anything more, but said a lot about the politeness of etiquette. ”

The shopkeeper naturally recounted the scene at that time, and the words "left in a hurry" attracted the man's attention.

It seems that Ivan's behavior was not what he expected, it was too abrupt, but it seemed a little inconsistent at the time.

If Ivan really didn't know anything, he just listened to the shopkeeper's question, and the question would not be very tricky.

Ivan will not leave without looking back, he has long heard that the twelve princes are gentle and elegant, and he is a prince who understands etiquette and is educated.

At the same time, the affinity is very strong, and the words have a beginning and an end, so that they don't leave without saying anything, which is too abnormal.

The man was a little puzzled by this and this reaction, but the shopkeeper didn't dare to take the initiative to mention something in front of the man.

Basically, the man asked, and the shopkeeper answered, and the man was not very satisfied with this answer, so he thought about it for a while.

If you want to be foolproof, you must have a perfect strategy, not missing any details, and not ignoring loopholes.

"Then when you left, did you find any other suspicious characters by the side of the Twelve Princes? Both men and women. ”

"Suspicious characters? No suspicious characters were found around the Twelve Princes. But when I saw him at the time, there was a young and beautiful girl with him. The two of them seem to be walking together, and the relationship doesn't seem to be very close, but even if the two don't communicate much in front of me, I think it's definitely not as simple as ordinary friends. ”

When the shopkeeper was thinking along with the man's question, he thought of the woman who appeared in front of Ivan first.

is Yao Qiao, who left with Ivan later, I have to say that she is also an existence that cannot be ignored, and there must be a connection in it.

Even though she seems to be a weak woman who is harmless to humans and animals, she doesn't seem to be too threatening, just judging by Yao Qiao's appearance.

But you must know that those who can accompany the prince by their side must not be ordinary people, at least they must be good at civil and military.

If it was just an ordinary woman, she wouldn't have been with him for so long, and the shopkeeper thought that he must be someone with other identities.

is definitely not a simple kind of person, after the shopkeeper said this, the man naturally followed the topic and suspicion.

Among the many speculations, the man's intuition told him that the so-called young girl in the shopkeeper should not be the female assassin who had failed to assassinate so many assassins before. To be precise, the person who protects Ivan is just dressed in the clothes of youth and beauty.

Then you can protect him by his side with someone who doesn't know who the prince is, and the danger visible to the naked eye will be directly eliminated.

Thinking of this, the man became very interested in Yao Qiao for a while, did he have to get rid of her first to prevent accidents. It seems that he is not going to assassinate Ivan but Yao Qiao, at least he knows that Ivan has such a barrier around him.

However, if the result can be obtained just by guessing, the twelve princes Ivan would have died a long time ago, and the man did not want to think nonsense.

"Do you have any other news? Like about the girl. ”

"No, my lord, that's basically all there is, and there may be others that I don't know, after all, time is short. The Twelve Princes didn't talk to me much, but I still felt that the girl should be as simple as she seemed. ”

The man listened to the tone of the shopkeeper, and there was a feeling of wanting to try it, and he couldn't help but be a little curious about him personally.

The man turned around and looked at the shopkeeper in front of him, even if he lowered his head slightly at this time, he could see some characteristics.

In terms of appearance and aura, those who dress ordinarily and speak in a low voice are just like those who have done something bad and are unsightly.

If you don't know his identity, it's really not much different from the real shopkeeper in the inn, and it makes people feel inferior.

At the moment, he seems to be more than just a spy, a spy is just to find out the news, he is different.

Sure enough, he was still too polite to him, and he spoke stiffly, and he didn't look at what his identity was, as if he was embarrassed.

But if you can get a little other news, it would be good.
