Chapter 982: The Assassin

"Do you think you can defeat the Duke of Tenardier?"

Lyudmila came up and asked.

"Why, Tenardier asked you to be a lobbyist?"

"How is that possible? He wants you to die now, but I'm curious why you're fighting him in obscurity - I don't know what Eleonora likes about you, but she's not going to help you win this battle. ”

"Is it because you're helping Tenardier on the other side?"

Hearing this, Lyudmila breathed a breath of confidence from her nostrils, puffed up her chest and said, "That's right, don't think about success with me in Eleonora." ”

"Ah, let me start with it, it's just that the family has been in contact with the Duke of Tenardier's family for 80 years, so I agreed to help him, and I personally hate him." Lyudmila added another sentence.

"Really?" Wu Jian sat on a chair in the courtyard, patted the table and said, "Don't talk about these mundane things, I heard Elaine say that you carry jam with you - it's used to make black tea, can you let me taste it?" ”

"You're quite knowledgeable," Lyudmila looked at Wu Jian unexpectedly, with a hint of appreciation in her eyes: "Okay, although we are enemies now, it doesn't matter if you want to taste it." ”

So, Lyudmila took out the tools she had with her and brewed black tea.

After a while, Wu Jian put a delicate cup in front of him, which was filled with fragrant black tea.

Wu Jian didn't rush to taste it, but touched the cup, and then said to Lyudmila: "What are you going to do?" Did you just call like that? ”

Lyudmila was stunned for a moment before she reacted and replied: "How is that possible? I don't have any intention of being a pawn, I just have to hold Aryonora back. ”

She didn't care about telling the plan, because, as she said, all she had to do was hold Aryonora. And this one way. Even if you say it, there is no problem, it can be said to be a yang conspiracy.

"Then I'll rest assured, if you two are hurt, then I'll be a sinner."

"Huh?"

Lyudmila was dumbfounded, and couldn't help but slap the table and ask, "If I drag Eleonora, you have a way to deal with the Duke of Tenardier?" Are you still in the mood to worry about us that you are a fool? ”

"Hahaha. I think I've been hearing this a lot lately. Wu Jian scratched his cheeks, and suddenly pointed at Lyudmila and smiled mysteriously: "But don't you think it's too easy for you to see people as fools?" It's not a good habit to despise your opponent like this, and if I dare to say that, it's that I have absolute certainty of defeating Tenardier. Lyudmila, you should be glad that you will be the one who will suffer if you call directly, but please don't worry, because I like you, so I won't do anything to you. ”

Lyudmila: "You're a fool and I'm your enemy, what's the point of showing love to your enemy?" ”

Lyudmila tilted her head. But a faint flush can be seen on the cheeks. As a war queen, and a war queen who is the successor of the times, it is not uncommon to be shown love, but it is the first time that she has been so moved.

At this time, the black tea also became moderately hot and cold, Wu Jian picked up the teacup and sniffed it first: "Well, the aroma is rich and sweet, and it matches the jam perfectly." ”

Then. Wu Jian observed the color of the black tea again, and exclaimed: "The soup is red and bright. The bottom of the leaf is red and bright, and the quality of the tea can be seen. ”

After tasting it gently, Wu Jian closed his eyes and savored: "The taste is mellow and sweet, not bad!" ”

Oh?

Lyudmila's eyes lit up: "I didn't expect you to taste black tea too, I don't know how high it is higher than Eleonora!" ”

"It's just that I'm used to drinking itβ€”but this kind of Cheng dΓΉ just allows me to drink it, and I usually drink much better than this."

Lyudmila's smile froze. looked at Wu Jian speechlessly: "Although your black tea can only be said to be a hobby, but being said to be like this, you really have to see what you 'usually' drink!" ”

"No problem, one of my chefs is named Ah Fei, who is a must-have for making black tea. I have a maid though. The black tea she brewed is the most perfect, but she is not here now, I'm afraid it will take a while. ”

"Then I'll be free, I won't know if you're not there after a while."

Lyudmila's eyes suddenly sharpened, and the atmosphere became tense - but she was the one who felt nervous, and Wu Jian didn't care at all.

After coming over for a while, feeling that it was too stupid to stare like this, Lyudmila withdrew her sharp gaze and rubbed her temples: "Although because of the friendship of the family, I have to help the Duke of Tenardiye. However, he didn't know that his son was still there, and if I was involved in it, maybe I could let him let you go - don't think about using hostages to make him compromise, such a character will not be burdened by family affection. ”

"Then don't worry, if you're worried about your son's safety - they'll be reunited soon." Wu Jian said shaking the teacup.

"Really? Then it's up to you. Even though I'm your enemy, I have a good impression of you - I'll pray for you. ”

With that, Lyudmila stood up, apparently not wanting to stay in the enemy's territory any longer.

"Are you leaving? I haven't drunk enough of your black tea. ”

"You're alright."

Lyudmila smiled, but their tea party didn't go any further. Eleonora, who was concerned about why they hadn't come back for so long, secretly ran over, only to see the two of them talking and laughing over tea and chatting, and roared on the spot, baring her teeth and claws to fight Lyudmila alone.

Although Lyudmila was not to be outdone, she was satisfied with talking to Wu Jian and being able to provoke Eleonora, and she quickly left under Wu Jian's casual steps. Of course, when he left, he also gave Aryonora a war letter, which immediately made Aryonora uneasy.

"Damn, Lyudmila guy"

"Elaine, I'm also a colleague, so I don't have to be so distressed, right?"

What the!?

Eleonora almost grinned at her, and then slapped it in front of Wu Jian: "It's not like that!" ”

Then. Wu Jian noticed that Eleonora's subordinates were pressing a letter.

"Take a good look!"

Eleonora let go of her hand, and Wu Jian also saw the words on the letter: If Eleonora leads his troops to Brunay, I hope you will attack the weakly defended Letmeliz as originally agreed.

Lytmeliz is the principality administered by Eleonora, and beyond Alsace bordering Lyitmeriz is the Duchy of Olmiz in Lyudmila.

"This is a letter I intercepted. But judging by the circumstances, it is estimated that the Duke of Tenardier deliberately leaked it to me. And I also found out that on the border between Lightmeliz and Olmetz, about 2,000 Olmez soldiers were gathering, saying that they were going to conduct military training! ”

Hearing this, Lim frowned: "In other words, Lord Lyudmila is serious this time?" ”

Aryonora nodded, then looked at Wu Jian: "Depending on the situation, we may have to fight on both sides. However, judging by the deliberate leakage of this news to us. Duke Tenardiye can't spare any manpower to deal with us for the time being, so if he wants Lyudmila to hold us back, it's best to lose both. Wu Jian, what are you going to do? ”

"I'm not going to do that." Wu Jian spread his hands.

"Huh!?" ”

Aryonora and Lim were stunned, their eyes staring straight at him.

"There's nothing to do, it's just that whoever wants to come and play with us, then play with him."

"You" Eleonora was completely dumbfounded, because she had gone back to Arthas last time. She didn't know that Wu Jian was such a lazy person.

"Mistress Eleonora!" Lim raised her tone and said coldly, "This man is really muddy and can't hold up the wall. It's better to evacuate from here and leave him to fend for himself. As long as we withdraw our forces, Lord Lyudmila will not do anything. ”

"Lim, you're saying that again. Didn't I say that I have a lot of hole cards, but I'm not afraid of what others do? ”

"I don't know! And as far as I can see, I can't see your hole cards there! Lim pointedly accused.

Wu Jian shrugged wordlessly. The hole cards are in front of them, what can they do if they can't see them?

Eleonora also has a headache for this. She really wanted to believe Wu Jian, and she let her give up before she saw anything, which would make her very unwilling. But Wu Jianbiao had to give up on himself. Fortunately, it was Lim, if others had forced her to ignore her.

Eleonora struggled into the evening, with only her and Lim in her room.

"Mistress Eleonora, in fact, don't be so distressed. Looking at Wu Jian's appearance, maybe there is really some certainty of victory and there is no need for us to intervene, as long as we do not move, Lord Lyudmila will not do anything. No better"

No matter how bad it is, just abandon Alsace and Wu Jian. Although I am trying to say good things for him, if it is not the climate, it is not worth putting myself into it.

"No, Lightmeliz and Olmiz have a feud in the first place, and even in normal times there is friction. I've fought a lot with Lyudmila, so it's not surprising if we do it again. But I don't think she'll miss this opportunity, and before she left, she made a declaration of challenge, and even if we didn't move, she would still call. When the time comes, if I can't get Alsace - of course, more importantly, Wu Jian, if I make a fuss, I will be laughed at by her for the rest of my life! ”

Lim understands that Eleonora has a very special affection for Wu Jian after they meet, and will always help Wu Jian no matter what.

After a moment of silence, Lim asked, "So, Eleonora-sama is planning to go to war with Lyudmila-sama?" ”

"Ah, at least send Lyudmila back before Duke Tenardier launches an offensive!"

"Then, Wu Jian's side"

"There is no need to tell him, and I have ordered Lurick and them to go to the border first, and we will sleep here for the night, and we will leave early tomorrow morning."

As she spoke, the corners of Eleonora's mouth pulled upward: "It's time to make him anxious too"

Because Eleonora and the others were still here, Wu Jian and the others didn't care about the movements of the soldiers who stayed before (in fact, they really didn't care).

That night, however, a special event occurred in the mansion, after everyone had fallen asleep

Because today it was Artoria and Nero's turn, Kue and Yasaka's mother and daughter maintained their fox form - they had their own rooms, but Kue was used to lying in front of Wu Jianfang's door.

Today too. First wandered around the dark home (patrolling the territory?). After a certain period of time, the room was quiet and ready to go to the door-most of the time he would sneak in and sleep next to Wu Jian.

Suddenly, her ears twitched, and she heard something.

Jumping to the window and looking out, the courtyard under the moonlight was very beautiful, but there was nothing but insects - in the eyes of ordinary people. As for Kuju. She saw and heard it very clearly.

In a bush opposite the mansion, there were seven people hiding - all masked, all men.

Divided into three groups, I, No. 3, No. 7, No. 2 and No. 4, No. 5, No. 6, infiltrated from the courtyard, roof, and main gate respectively to avoid the battle queen, and in case of accidents, the two groups were responsible for luring the enemy. The rest go to assassinate their targets.

Kuju tilted her little head, although she could see it, but the other party didn't speak, but she couldn't understand it with gestures and codes.

"Oh, it's the assassin, when do I think I'll come."

A fox head was on Kuju's back, and she didn't have to look back to know that it was her mother, Yasaka.

"Mom, what are we going to do?"

"Hey, hey. Our strength is not strong now, and we can't help the master much. But like this little trash fish. It's still possible to keep them from disturbing their hosts. By the way, the owner's new favorite seems to be playing with something, and the movements here must be hidden from them. ”

Jiu nodded his head, what her mother said she was naturally what she was, and it wasn't a big deal.

Outside, the assassins have begun to infiltrate the mansion. The pawns are divided into three ways.

However, they did not notice that except for the three people who went to the courtyard, the other two groups of people traveled to the courtyard together in a strange way, and the two groups made movements to the roof and the main entrance, crossing the obstacles that did not exist without knowing it. A qiΔ“ looks so funny.

However, the trio who were originally heading to the courtyard had a normal perspective, and they slowly approached the mansion from the shadows - of course, as they were about to dive in, they took a closer look inside and spotted two foxes.

Number One frowned, and while it was rare to have a fox - and an excessively fluffy tail was even rarer (too dark for even an assassin to have such a good eye), it could still act as a police dog once barked.

So, No. 1 took out two meatloafs and threw them in, and it was best to poison the two foxes silently.

But the two foxes didn't smell the meatloaf that was thrown, and they seemed to look down at the meatloaf very speechlessly, and they invariably raised their heads and cast a disdainful look at the three of them.

Hell yes!

Although foxes have always been known for their intelligence and cunning, what's the deal with this humanization?

No. 1 was also very alert, and when he found that he couldn't make a plan, he turned his hand over, and subconsciously threw out two hidden weapons and shot them at the throats of the two foxes.

Suddenly two muffled grunts came, and Number One nodded in satisfaction - wait! Wrong! That's a human voice!

At this moment, a cold light shot from that direction, but fortunately, the three of them were already alert and hurriedly dodged.

And then two more muffled grunts came - behind them.

What the hell, when did there be someone behind them? They had just walked by, and it was impossible for someone to walk behind them so quickly without being noticed by them.

"There's an ambush!"

Number One shouted, and now that he had been discovered, he didn't plan to hide anymore. And the more people this side attracts, the better the chances of success for the other two groups.

So, the assassins who were divided into three groups of unknown truths fought on their own, and the mother and daughter of Yasaka and Kuju watched the play with relish on the side.

During this period, Iskander, who came out to look for food, noticed the movement here and came to take a look. So he sat down and picked up two meatloaf and got up.

"Ahh

Yasaka and Kurei looked at it, and although the house was cleaned, I had to admire the things I picked up and put them in my mouth like that.

"Well, although it is added, it is still delicious, do you want it?" Iskandar handed over a piece.

The mother and daughter shook their heads in unison, even if the poison was useless to them, and what others threw them was eaten like that, only Iskandar could do it.

On the other hand, the assassins also won as a trio.

"Win this、What's going on!?"

Before they could rejoice, they were horrified to find that it was none other than an assassin like himself.

"It'sβ€”it's impossible!"

Chills in his hands and feet, Number One hurried over and lifted his maskβ€”none other than one of his crew.

How can it be

The trio's minds were blank, and it was their own people who were fighting with them just now? No wonder the routines are so familiar

"Oh, it's a winner. But there are no prizes, and what awaits you is a hell worse than death - even if it's the loser's bracket, there's still a breath left. ”

The three of them looked up and saw that a strong man with the meatloaf they had just thrown out in his mouth was crackling and pinching his fingers, and a huge black image in the dark night enveloped their hearts, and then it was dark in front of them.

"Well, I'll go and interrogate them if there's nothing to do. I will bring the answer to my lord after dawn. ”

After saying hello to Hasaka and Kue, Iskandar single-handedly carried all the assassins and strode out. (To be continued......)
