- I'm a little late, I'm sorry, I woke up dizzy today, my nose is blocked, it seems to be a heat cold. Well, recover today, keep two shifts, and make up for the arrears tomorrow.

A guy like me who is a turtle and a fast stream breaks out for two days and then the sequelae is not small, so I ask for a monthly pass to comfort ~

..........................................................................................

Inside the VIP dining room.

Granneuve asked the guard to light a thick black cigarette, took a deep breath, and then sighed rudely: "The musicianly chick is really good, much better than the ones who were eager to throw themselves into my arms as soon as they gave the gifts." ”

"Boss Granneuve, I don't think Miss Grace likes you very much. His close guard whispered.

Granneuve laughed: "That's how you can feel accomplished, don't you think it's a great thing to conquer a reserved girl with your charm." ”

The "charismatic ......" close to the guard was speechless, but he knew very well that rudeness, uncultured, nouveau riche, and lust were just the protective colors of Boss Granneuve, otherwise why would he be one of the maintainers of Stucker's underground order.

At that moment, Grace walked in through the door that the waiter had pushed open.

Granneuve hurriedly pressed the cigarette into the ashtray, and then said with a little confusion: "Grace, why are your eyes a little red and swollen, who bullied you?"

"No, it's just that during this time, in order to prepare for the concert, I often stayed up late to practice, so I was a little dry and painful by the cold wind just now. "After a temporary nightmare of the most feared nightmare, Grace is at ease in the face of Granneuve's lying, and there are no flaws.

Granneuve's puffy face showed a look of concern: "I'll ask my family doctor to prepare some medicine for you tonight to help you get rid of your eye fatigue." ”

"Thank you, Mr. Granneuve. Grace thanked her and smiled as she reached out. He handed the tightly folded note to Granneuve, and held the wine glass in his left hand.

Granneuve also thought that his efforts had paid off, although the reserved beauty did not dare to show his affection to his face. But he wrote a note to himself: "Hey, learning music is romance." ”

Grace took a sip of the red wine and watched as Granneuve opened the note, waiting for her chance. It wasn't until he was about to see the contents, but before he could fully unfold them, he slowly put down his glass and said, "Mr. Granneuve, this is what a gentleman I met in the bathroom asked me to bring to you." ”

If Granneuve waited until he saw that the contents of the note were not written by himself, then the ambiguous gesture of handing over the note just now would have a close relationship with Mr. Evans. It is not a strange and mysterious person as he said, but if it is explained in advance, a rich man like Granneuve may not open it in person, and it is likely to be handed over to the guards, which is contrary to Mr. Evans's explanation, so the timing is the most important thing to grasp. And in something similar, Grace feels that women have a natural instinct.

"You didn't write ......," Granneuve asked rhetorically, surprised. At the same time, he subconsciously folded and unfolded the last layer of the paper, and saw a line of text on the note.

Suddenly, his voice stopped abruptly, and his face changed again and again, but he quickly returned to normal, and said with a smile: "Hehe." A guy who always remembers things from the past. He really went to great lengths to find you. By the way, Grace, what does he look like?"

As he spoke, he struck a match and burned the note in the ashtray, which did not seem to be worth mentioning.

Grace thought to herself, puzzled, and then said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Mr. Granneuve, but I didn't know that my momentary kindness would bother you. Well, he's a brunette with black eyes......"

Describing his physiognomy in words is very vague in itself, and he can only focus on a few characteristics, and Grace has never thought to really tell Mr. Evans's appearance, so when she finishes describing it, Granneuve only knows that Lu Dao is a young man with black hair and black eyes, elegant and handsome, and the guy who fits this description can meet two or three in ten minutes on various high-class occasions.

Granneuve waved his hand indifferently: "It's okay, it's a little thing, you don't need to pay attention to him." Grace, we continue with a romantic dinner. ”

"Romantic ......" Grace felt disgusting again, but she was now in an unprecedented mood of relief and happiness, and showed Granneuve the note given by Mr. Evans that even if she completed the task, as long as Mr. Evans did not expose it by default, she could continue to live such a beautiful life.

............

In a dark corner outside the "Shark" restaurant, Lucien, who had already changed part of his appearance with a ring of magic "disguise", quietly watched as Granneuve sent Grace home in a satin-tied, golden-colored, ornately decorated spiked boat.

"Friend, come out, don't be sneaky. Lucien suddenly withdrew his gaze and whispered into the empty part of the narrow alley.

A sneer sounded inexplicably, and a black figure stood out from the wall: "It seems that you are the one who sneaks and peeps." ”

It was a middle-aged man with no concealment, his face was thin and gloomy, his flaxen hair was draped over his shoulders, and his brown eyes were cold and unforgiving, not any of Granneuve's guards.

He took a closer look at Lucian's handsome appearance with black hair and black eyes, so he nodded and said, "You are a magician?"

Lucien did not change his hair color and pupil color when he used the "disguise technique", and ensured the main characteristics, making himself look like another person and at the same time try to get as close as possible to Grace's possible description, so that people would think that he should be the mysterious person who handed the note just now: "Of course, if I am not a magician, how can I ask Mr. Granneuve to arrange for Alinge in the Kingdom of Holm?"

As he spoke, Lucien did not hide the fluctuations in the amount of supernatural power that was ready to be unleashed, so that experienced people could understand that this was magic at a glance.

"Hehe, sir, I think you're mistaken, Graniv isn't a liaison with the Magic Council. The middle-aged man smiled, "I don't know where you heard this information, but in fact, I am one of the contacts of the Magic Council in Stulk, please call me 'Ferryman'." ”

Then, he added, "Because there are so many mages like you who get the wrong information, we also follow Granneuve for a long time. And watch around him so that you can find and contact you. Look, didn't I just find you?"

Lucien's face was slightly dull with a disguise. As if he had been smiling faintly, he didn't believe the "ferryman's" explanation, and the note he gave to Granneuve was not too mysterious, just a note from an ordinary magician seeking contact and leaving a meeting place. The only peculiarity is that Granneuve is referred to directly as the liaison of the Magical Council on a note.

And given Granneuve's cautiousness, Lucien reckoned that he would not be able to wait for any response from his untrustworthy and unwarranted approach. Because he would fear that this would be a temptation from the night watchman, he would certainly not send someone to the meeting place. Otherwise, if someone went there to meet, based on the fact that the note had been read by him, Granneuve would be extremely suspicious. And for the church, with this level of suspicion, it is impossible to ignore the identity, status and the great nobility behind Granneuve.

But Lucien's purpose was only to alarm Granneuve, so that he would send someone to secretly search for the surrounding voyeurs.

This allows you to "find" yourself deliberately and make sure that there is no night watchman in the vicinity, even if you are a member of the Church. As long as the "ferryman" is not caught and tortured, then Granneuve is not seriously suspicious, after all, if it weren't for Lucian, Felipe would never lie about this kind of thing when he faced the "professor" who came to the same council headquarters, maybe he would really believe the explanation of the "ferryman".

"How do I believe you're the Magical Council's liaison in Stulk?" Lucien asked in a slightly "excited, excited, and skeptical" tone.

"Ferryman" hehe smiled: "If you don't believe me, then I'll leave." It's not me who loses anyway. Think about it, if I am the night watchman of the church, I can do it now, why bother to trick you into going somewhere else with a one-ring magician?

From the magic fluctuations that Lucien deliberately revealed, he judged Lucian's approximate strength.

"Well, I believe in you. Lucien replied helplessly.

The ferryman shook his head, "It's useless for you to believe me, the question now is whether I should trust you or not? ”

"Moreover, two months ago, Mr. Felipe and twenty-two magicians tried to sneak through the blockade and were accidentally discovered, but after that, he took these magicians to force their way through, much to the anger of the church higher-ups. Not only did he rank him in the 359th place in the purification sequence, but he also swept Sturke's underground realm fiercely. Due to the disguise of part of the night watchmen, but also due to the appearance of traitors from within, we have suffered heavy losses and have to be more cautious and careful in this regard. ”

"Felipe is back in the Magic Council and causing me so much trouble, uh, my purification sequence ranking has become three hundred and sixty?" Lucien asked, "Then how do I prove that I have nothing to do with the church?"

If Grace fails to keep the secret and let Granneuve know that he is Lucien Evans, Lucien will directly use Natasha's identity and the "Holm Crown" award ring to gain trust, although it is easy to be associated with the professor and himself afterwards, but in the case of identity exposure, this is a matter of time.

But now it seems that Grace has kept the secret well, and Lucien naturally won't take any chances.

"The Ferryman" voice became a little more relaxed, "Either you ask the magician of the Council to prove it for you, such as the one who told you about the existence of the Council and the liaison with Stucker." ”

"After he told me, I didn't even know who he was and his name because other things had left. "Lucien can't be called a professor or Felipe.

The "ferryman" was not surprised and continued: "Either do something that is enough to prove your identity. ”

"What?" Lucien thought to himself, could it be a vote?

"The Ferryman" laughed and said, "Last month, there was a traitor within us, forgetting that his knightly strength was stimulated by the potion given by the council, and not only took refuge in the church, but also revealed many important secrets, causing us to die many of our companions. In addition, more than thirty highly qualified magic apprentices were killed in the Stormstorm Strait when they were about to go to the council to start their bright future. ”

However, the traitor was awarded a knight's medal by the city council and lived a good life. If you can kill him, it has nothing to do with the church. (To be continued.) )
