33 Still at a loss for clues

"So you don't know what he's going to do?"

"Yes, I just know that it is a very urgent matter, and I didn't say much after the master came back. ”

**

Outside the secret room, Alan sat opposite the old butler, chatting about some secret things.

"Didn't he leave any clues?"

"Clues?" the old butler squinted and thought for a moment, then said, "If the map is also a clue." ”

"What kind of map?"

"You just saw it, in the Chamber of Secrets. ”

These words made Eren immediately recall the map that occupied the entire wall, there was nothing special at all, the star map was basically the standard configuration of every lord, what could be hidden?

But if you think about it, it seems that there are some special marks marked on it, and Alan didn't pay much attention to it at first, but now that he thinks about it, it seems a little suspicious.

The mark was from the south to the west, and even the capital and the fallen east were involved, covering the entire Star Continent.

"Could it be that his purpose is those places on the map?"

No one could answer him, and the old butler had made it clear that he didn't know where Taryn had gone.

"So, he left those letters on purpose for Charles?"

The old butler nodded, but shook his head again, and then smiled: "It's not Young Master Charles, it's you." ”

"Me?"

"That's right. The housekeeper sighed and said, "The master told me personally before leaving, asking me to guide you to discover this place, who would have thought that I hadn't figured out how to do it, young master, you found out by yourself." ”

"Why me, and why did he do this?" Alan frowned, vaguely wondering if he had been tricked by Tyron again.

"The master said that the eldest young master would not be interested in war. The old butler smiled: "And you will." ”

Alan was speechless.

"As for why he did this?" said the old butler with a confused face, "Maybe he doesn't want to give up this plan that has been planned for many years." ”

"Don't want to give up this plan but let others help him complete it?"

"You're not an outsider, isn't it normal for a father's wish to be fulfilled by his son?"

Obviously he was quibbling, but Alan had a feeling that he was speechless, he opened his mouth to refute, but he didn't know where to start, and finally sighed: "Is he so sure I can come back?"

"My lord knows you well, and you will be back as long as Chrissy is in danger. ”

"Actually, if it weren't for Charles, I wouldn't have been...."

As he spoke, he found that the old butler's expression was very calm, as if he expected him to make such remarks, which made him vaguely understand something.

"So you asked Charles to send me a letter?"

The old butler smiled and shook his head: "Not really, but if the eldest young master doesn't do this, I will also advise him to do it." ”

Hearing him say this, Alan rolled his eyes, what else could he say?

His character is always understood and used, but because of his blood relationship, he is not good at getting angry, which makes Alan quite depressed.

The topic was naturally revealed, and Alan began to ask other questions, but unfortunately the old butler didn't know anything other than knowing that Taryn wanted Alan to cooperate with Samuel to complete the purge plan.

Or, even if he knew, he didn't think to say it to Allen.

In the end, this conversation could only end hastily, and Alan basically found nothing and jumped into a big pit, but the last words of the old butler made him quite concerned.

"This kind of hard life is coming to an end, young master, just insist on persevering. ”

"The hard days?" Watching the old butler leave slowly, he secretly wondered, "What does this mean?"

Still no one answered him, and Alan found that many people love to sell Guanzi, and some news that was originally not worth keeping secret was also sold Guanzi, but he actually did something that he didn't, which made him confused.

"So, at this time, you have to ignore them. Pursed his lips, he took one last look at the study, then turned to leave.

He's going to come back later.

Although he promised the old butler not to look at the things behind the mural without Tyron's consent, Alan was not a good boy, and he only promised verbally, but he wouldn't really do nothing.

Secretly said sorry to the old butler in his heart, and Allen, who returned to the bedroom, first sorted out all his bags, then closed his eyes for a long time, and saw that the time was almost up, so he quietly came to Tyron's study, but the situation in the study caught him off guard.

"Hell. ”

Seeing how he fiddled, the mechanism just didn't react, and Alan didn't know that he was being wary of eighty percent.

This reminded him of a sentence: the road is one foot high, the magic is one foot high, and a mountain is even more high.

"Am I that untrustworthy?" After studying for a long time, the phenomenon of not opening the mechanism occurred, and Alan finally returned depressed.

He couldn't make a big noise, which was not good for anyone, so for the time being, he couldn't do anything about it for the time being, which made the curious Alan depressed.

So to divert his attention, he was ready to get down to business.

Taryn asked Alan to cooperate with Samuel in the purge, but he did not leave Alan with the command of the reef army, and Alan was not sure if he had explained it before leaving, so he still needed to confirm these things himself.

But before that, he was going to go to the newspaper office on the reef first.

Whether it's to get a better understanding of the reef or to find out the news, it is imperative to take control of the newspaper again.

The newspaper system in Reef City has been cultivated by him for many years and is already very mature, so as long as he masters the newspaper office, whether he finds the hidden spies or stabilizes the situation in the city, it will be much easier, otherwise it will not be so easy for him to do it himself.

As for whether it can be controlled back?

Alan was sure of this, although he had sold all the affairs of the newspaper to Taryn before leaving the reef, in fact, the people inside the newspaper were all cultivated by him, and it was not too easy to take it over.

Under normal circumstances, he wouldn't do this, after all, if he sells it, he sells it, and there is no reason to come back, but who let Taryn not be there now.

After packing up, Alan left the castle alone without informing anyone.

The castle of the lord of Reef City is not far from the location of the Seagull newspaper office in the city, because he was still young when it was founded, and Taryn did not allow Alan to stay too far from home, otherwise he was not allowed to go out, so in order to send Taryn away, and for convenience, Alan finally chose the location of the newspaper office on a certain street on Seventh Avenue in Reef City.

That is, the northeast corner of the castle of the lords.

The city is divided into seven main roads, the first through the third near the port and the city gates, the fourth avenue is a commercial street, and the last three roads near the castle are mainly residential.

It is easy to distinguish, the urban layout of Reef City is simple and straightforward, and it is not cumbersome at all.

Wearing a cloak, no one recognized Allen, and when he arrived at the Seagull Newspaper's office, it was only ten minutes later.

There are not many pedestrians in the street in front of you, but it is not a small number, and the gray stone road is shining in the sun, although it has just snowed, but the snow has melted on the road because the road is constantly trampled on.

When Alan arrived at the door of the newspaper office, a servant was cleaning the snow in front of the door. Seeing someone approaching, the servant looked up and asked, "Hello, who are you looking for?"

"I'm looking for Dom. Alan responded with a smile. His current face was hidden in the early cloak, and he was unrecognizable at first glance.

"Dom?" the servant was stunned, then asked, "What are you looking for me?"

"Guess what?" Alan grinned, then took off his cloak and hat.

"Master Allen!?" Dom looked surprised, his eyes wide as he looked at him in disbelief.

Alan smiled and patted him on the shoulder, then asked, "Is Sherlock there?"

"Lord Sherlock?" Dom's tone hesitated, his face becoming odd.
