Chapter 408: Retribution
Criminality was rampant during the night, but no one noticed that there were many pairs of eyes staring at it in the dark.
It could be a beggar on the side of the road, a coachman driving a horse, or, more directly, a black-clad masked man hidden in a high place or in the shadows, staring at the target with a falcon-like gaze.
But whoever it is, they will rush to the back alley of the shopping street before midnight and throw a small note into an inconspicuous abandoned wooden box, and after midnight, a capable man in a strong suit will take out the information in the box, and then disappear in a flash.
In the palace, Xiao Yi and Kevin were discussing, and what they said was nothing more than the ongoing exchange conference, as one of the planners and the crown prince of the host country, he naturally had to bear the responsibility for the success or failure of the conference, but judging from the current situation that both the face and the process were very smooth, the expressions on the faces of the two were inevitably serious.
"After entering the city, there are twenty-one people whose whereabouts are suddenly unknown, and if these people suddenly make trouble, it will be a big force!"
Kevin sighed, and Xiao Yi comforted: "It's okay, you can't keep an eye on everyone who enters the city, even if you only select some key targets, but they choose to disappear as expected, then it proves that our previous judgment is very accurate, and everything is still under control." ”
"I heard that you showed your tracking skills in the attack on the palace dinner before, can you find these people as well?"
"It's not easy, last time it was because there were special magic markers as tracking, I haven't seen these people, and the personal information collected is not enough, in this case, magic methods will not be much more effective than manual!"
"That's a pity, but I asked my father for help in advance for this...... But if it weren't for the fact that there was nothing I could do, I really wouldn't want to use this method!"
Looking at Kevin, who had a somewhat helpless and hesitant expression, Xiao Yi was thoughtful.
As the sound of the communication sounded, the commander of the guards of the army directly under the crown prince came to meet him, but this sturdy soldier looked like a constipated expression!
"Have you gotten any news?"
“......”
"It's so urgent, what's so taboo in front of me!"
In front of his cronies' subordinates, Kevin naturally didn't need to wear that elegant and noble mask, and clearly expressed his attitude: If you don't tell the news I'm anxious for, don't blame Lao Tzu for being mad with you!
He knows his master's temperament very well, but he really doesn't have any way now: "Your Highness, the person is still there just now...... But in the blink of an eye, I can't find it!"
The seemingly extremely absurd and irresponsible answer made Kevin depressed.
At this point, Xiao Yi confirmed what Kevin just said about asking for help?
Good at gathering intelligence information.,Accompanying into the palace but can be ghostly and reckless.,And the only existence that makes the crown prince and his guard commander jealous and has no temper is that.,The secret agent unit directly under the king "Dire"。
While its abilities are indeed top-notch, as Kevin said, it is awkward to use the Dire Force as the crown prince.
It is taboo to use any of the exclusive rights of the emperor as a prince, and there are countless princes in history who have been dismissed or even executed because of their close collusion with the king's subordinates and the usurpation of power.
What's more, even if you really put this power in your hands, you may not be able to control it, just like now, if someone dumps your face in front of you, you are helpless.
Several people looked at each other, if the other party didn't do it on purpose, it would really be a bit self-deceptive, probably because of the king's order to give Kevin a temporary moderation and a little dissatisfied, regardless of whether you are the future king or not, but now you don't want to dictate us at will.
Feeling Kevin's anger and frustration, although Xiao Yi didn't want to interfere too much in the intrigues of the royal family and officialdom, but now that it involved the work at hand, he naturally couldn't sit idly by, so he raised his hand to the corner of the wall in the room, and a strong cold aura suddenly condensed into a cyclone at the front of his palm.
"This is a frost blast that is comparable to the power of seventh-order spells, and it cannot be defended against except for a spell shield, unless you have a dragon or demon anti-magic skin.
And if I can find out where you are, I'm guaranteed to hit the first hit!
So I'll give you three breaths to choose from, whether to show up or be beaten down by me and sent back!" Xiao Yi said coldly.
A moment later, under the gaze of Kevin and the head of the guards, the position of the corner of the wall twisted out of thin air, and a vigorous black-clad figure gradually appeared from the blurred texture.
Sure enough, it was the dress of Dire, and they were unaware of it all the time in this room, if Xiao Yi was not present to force him to appear, if the other party really had sinister intentions to attack, with the two of them, I am afraid that they would not be able to retreat with their whole bodies, and they felt uncomfortable on their faces and hearts at the moment.
As for Xiao Yi, when he saw the face of the person who appeared, he found that it was a familiar person, and immediately laughed: "Who should I be, use the equipment I gave out to play tricks in front of me, your idea is really special enough!"
It turned out that the person in the Dire who was ordered to come to report was Mei Jie, and after hearing Xiao Yi's ridicule, his originally cold face showed a rare look of surprise, which made Kevin and the commander of the guards stunned.
They never expected that Xiao Yi would still have this face, you must know that Kevin is a person who has seen Dire with his own eyes, although he is deferential in front of his father, his expression is also cold.
The people who can be sent to report to him are at least the senior cadres who are second only to the chief and deputy commanders, and such a person is so familiar with Xiao Yi, which can't help but make Kevin re-evaluate Xiao Yi's favor in front of the king!
Of course, the most important thing is the king's spy troops, which were still unruly in front of them, and now they should no longer be fooling around, which is very comfortable!
Xiao Yi also knows how to advance and retreat, and he didn't deliberately show off and dominate in front of Kevin just because he could eat Mei Jie.
"Since you have been ordered, don't forget your duty, if you really think of yourself as a lackey, you can indeed be shameless and honorable, but in that case you don't deserve to be treated with humanity, I'll do it all!"
Xiao Yi's indifference also surprised Mei Jie, because Xiao Yi was a rather soft-hearted young man who learned through Neuer, but he didn't expect to be able to say such indifferent and tough words.
But compared to being the actual benefactor who he had just returned alive in a foreign land, such a slightly indifferent Xiao Yi was better for him to accept.
So after thousands of salutes to Kevin, they simply presented the information he had:
"Tonight, a total of seven contestants, including Maineck, were in contact with unknown individuals, all of whom were later asked to be traced, but it is almost certain that they are the same as the ...... who disappeared before."
