His pupils dilated slightly, and his gaze constricted.

Amy unconsciously took a step back, her black hair falling quite naturally, hiding the subtle change in her expression - but it all happened between one or two breaths, and she coughed lightly twice to hide her gaffe, and he hurriedly looked away and saluted humbly.

"Good morning – Master Paul. ”

The lowered eyelids could not see the ups and downs of the heart, and the panicked tone could not reveal the true thoughts in the heart.

The nearly three-meter-tall giant did not speak, but stood majestically in front of the door like a mountain, and there was no joy or sorrow on his hideous face, only the red pupils the size of copper bells, which were staring at him without saying a word.

Sometimes silence is also a strength.

At least the reticence of the giant Paul was somewhat unfathomable in the eyes of the young man.

- What are you kidding, why can you still crawl out of the grave and cause trouble for him!?

After the surprise, a sense of anger at being deceived spontaneously arose, but Amy restrained her emotions very well, and did not let the bad mentality spread—instead, she pretended to be weak and bullied, and carefully looked at the giant not far away who gave people great pressure just by standing, and when her eyes met, she withdrew her gaze as if she had been electrocuted, and her body trembled and trembled.

"You, you...... What are you?"

Like a lamb prostrate on the ground before a lion, he cautiously asked.

However, no answer was given.

The giant Paul stands like a marble sculpture, and is as silent as a marble sculpture.

Not quite right, with the usual rough character of the giant Paul, it is hard to imagine that he could maintain such a long silence, that is to say...... It's some kind of illusion...... Or is it some kind of disguise?

The young man, who was undoubtedly convinced of Paul's death, caught the suspicions, but this was not the time to analyze the information, Amy, who was keenly aware of the approaching crisis, not only did not let her thoughts expand, but instead restrained her distractions, cautiously observed the two uninvited guests in front of the door, and only after a while did she completely open the door in a panic, and said somewhat unscrupulously: "Look at my nervousness, please come in, please come in!"

"Your Excellency Ulysses," the attendant took the first step, his gaze casually swept over the young man's eyes, and a smile of deep meaning appeared on his face, "What do you mean by 'impossible'?"

"Ah-" Amy was at a loss for words, "that's, what do you mean...... refers to ......"

"What do you mean?" said Simon, the squire, with a smirk, "If Your Excellency Ulysses hears any bad rumors, please be sure to let us know in time." ”

"Definitely, definitely. The boy nodded like a chicken pecking rice.

The black-clothed acolyte didn't continue the topic, didn't even look at the boy again, turned around and bowed to the huge shadow behind him, and made a gesture of please, "Master Paul." ”

The giant glanced up at him slightly, then stepped along.

- It's too similar, it's too similar.

When the tall and mighty figure as a mountain approached, Amy couldn't help but lose his mind slightly—there was not a trace of disguise on the strong man with the name of a giant in front of him, if he wasn't sure of the other party's death, there was a good chance that he would be suspicious of what he had heard before, right? But when it came to what he had heard before, could it be ...... Simon is trying to use the "resurrection" of the giant Paul to test something, right?

Sure enough, it was suspected.

His eyes narrowed slightly, but the boy fell silent.

"Lord Ulysses—" Before he could make a temptation, the cunning squire officer had already spoken first, "It seems that your side has not been very stable lately......"

The gaze stopped slightly in the grassy courtyard.

"Yes......" A slightly embarrassed smile appeared on Amy's face, "The security has not been peaceful lately, and I am worried about it every night, but fortunately ......"

He paused, and his voice stopped abruptly as he met the giant Paul's eyes.

"Thankfully, what?" asked the attendant.

"Well, well, fortunately......" Amy winced, as if she wanted to say something, but her tongue was always tied in knots with excessive tension and hesitation, and she couldn't tell anything for a while.

"If you have any scruples, please speak out, in the lower districts, it seems that there are no people who dare to offend His Majesty the Emperor. Simon's bland words undoubtedly revealed Michelangelo's domineering, and this obviously gave a boost to the young man who had never been willing to speak clearly, which made him feel a lot more at ease, and the next words were much smoother, "That...... I've heard ......"

Even so, he cautiously glanced at the giant in front of him like a mountain of meat.

"There are very bad rumors circulating in the lower districts about Lord Paul......"

"For example?" the squire officer was not too surprised, and the expression on his face was calm and a little frightening.

"This ...... This ......" Amy was about to speak, but after a short hesitation, she finally took that step, looked up sharply, and replied in a loud voice, "Rumor has it that Master Paul is dead, dead three days ago......"

"Oh, that's the news. Simon showed such an expression, his calm eyes could not see joy and sorrow, "Thank you very much for your help, it is indeed a very valuable clue, but before I confirm it, I have one more question for you, and I hope you will answer it without hesitation." ”

Have you seen the poor dagger?

Amy thought silently, but responded directly: "But it doesn't hurt to say it." ”

"Where did Your Excellency Ulysses know this news?" the cunning squire looked at the young man in front of him with a meaningful gaze, and said casually, "As far as I know, you have only been in the lower district for three or five days, how can you be so well informed?"

"It is precisely because of the lack of information that we have suffered such a big loss. Amy pretended to have a distressed expression, shaking her head and sighing, "I was blackmailed by that intelligence dealer for five gold tors, I thought it was big news, but I didn't expect that guy to fool me with false news, until now I think about it, my heart is aching faintly, it is not a negotiable note, it is not a silver tor, but a real kintor." ”

"Please mourn. Five gold tors is not a small amount, even with Simon's current status, it is an out-and-out huge amount of money - although he didn't think that the young man in front of him with the blood of glory would really pay such a large sum of money to buy a piece of news that was circulating all over the street, but he still expressed his attitude in a timely manner, "I personally express my serious indignation at this kind of fraud that seriously violates fairness and justice, not to mention that as an attendant of Lord Paul, I cannot tolerate someone fabricating such a vicious rumor." ”

"That's nature. Amy nodded viciously.

"So," the attendant looked at with a smile on his face. "You'll be sure to cooperate with us. ”

"Hmm......" The young man was obviously stunned, and spread his hands a little helplessly, "If it is based on the premise that it does not affect my personal life, I don't think it should be a big problem." ”

"Yes," Simon nodded slightly, "and can you describe the basic characteristics of that intelligence merchant?"

"That guy...... "Amy's muttering didn't last long," "was probably in his thirties, with a small mustache, and was a recognizable fellow—an old-fashioned gentleman's dress, an old-fashioned top hat, always a black suit, and a habit of carrying an old cane and a pair of one-sided glasses. ”

"What do you call him?" I have to say, this outfit is indeed quite rare, relying on the information provided by the young man, the squire officer easily sketched a vague portrait in his mind.

"Willy, intelligence merchant Willy. Amy was quite sincere and related to the uninvited guest in front of her, "Although he claims to be so, I don't believe a word of what comes out of the mouth of that guy who is full of lies. ”

"A smart choice. Simon praised, "At least as far as I know, none of the active intelligence merchants in the lower districts have chosen 'Willy' as a code name. ”

"It seems to be an outright lie," the young man did not show a look of surprise at this, but gritted his teeth, "sure enough, it is a stranger who bullied me, who is not familiar with my life, and slaughtered me as a fat sheep—what a hate! Mr. Simon, Lord Paul, you must do justice for me!"

"Definitely, definitely. ”

The experienced attendant said very perfunctorily, regardless of whether this clue is true or not, even if it is true, I am afraid it will be broken here. The teenager's description of the image of Willy, the intelligence merchant, may be very plump, and it is easy for the listener to sketch a classic persona, but this classic image is likely to be a trap woven by the other party, relying on the specificity of clothing and action representation, purposefully diverting the target's attention completely to other places, so as to make people ignore his true appearance hidden under the carefully woven image.

He's a veteran.

He lamented that as long as he threw away his suit, took off his glasses, shaved his beard, and changed his outfit after committing the crime, he was afraid that it would be another person in the crowd.

But...... Is what this guy is saying really the truth?

Although there is no evidence, Simon is instinctively suspicious - he always feels like a cow now, has been carried by someone to the nose ring, and is completely led by the trend.

It's an illusion, isn't it......

He wasn't very sure, after all, the teenager in front of him was just a teenager.

The attendant stopped and didn't think much about it, except for Amy Ulysses, there were two other suspects, whether it was Hoover of the Tallinn Chamber of Commerce or Virginia of the Fairy House, which were obviously not fuel-efficient lamps.

So...... Let's leave it at that.

He thought so, and as he turned around, he didn't notice the slight curvature of the corners of the boy's mouth.
