Chapter Ninety-Eight: Afternoon
The plan that Gordo and the others had secretly planned was unaware of in Melwiice. Although Melwicz was aware www.biquge.info of Gordo's involvement with many serving officials, he did not make any excessive moves on the whole.
Melwiez not only has to deal with the disasters caused by the heavy rains for several days, pay attention to the war in the northwest and the movements of the outer lords, but also plan and arrange the capture of the murderers in the imperial capital. Surveillance of Gordo will inevitably be lax, and even for his political opponent Arino, he is only a member of the Twilight Hitomi who has never been deeply monitored.
As for the disaster relief, 10 days have passed since March 5.
On the night of March 15, Meliwitz was resting in the dormitory after a busy day. And Kuzhi, who had been hiding secretly, took advantage of the night to appear in front of Melwitz again.
Ku Zhi was still wearing a black cloak with a hood on his head.
Melwiitz had just come out of the shower, wearing only a dark blue velvet bathrobe. With a bath towel around his neck, his flaming red hair still wet, he walked barefoot to the sofa where Kuzhi was sitting.
"You didn't come late at night to test the palace guards, did you? ”
Melwiitz wiped her hair with the towel around her neck and teased.
"Don't make fun of me..."Ku Zhi took off the hood on his head, revealing his fair and handsome face: "You can still wash it, but I haven't washed it seriously for a long time." ”
Melwiitz heard Kuzhi say that he hadn't taken a shower in a long time, and he couldn't help but take two steps back.
Ku Zhi saw it in his eyes, and replied with a dissatisfied face: "What do you mean, I work so hard for you, you are good, you dislike me?"
Instead of explaining to Kuzhi, Melwitz asked, "Am I so obvious?"
Ku Zhi couldn't help but laugh and nodded in agreement: "Quite obvious!"
Melwiitz spread his hands out: "It seems that I am not a person who can act. As soon as he finished speaking, Meliwitz sat down on the single sofa opposite Kuzhi, and said, "Is there any movement in the city now?"
Ku Zhi also became serious, and the original smile on his face gradually disappeared, and he shook his head and said, "As you expected, during the time I was secretly dormant, the murderer did not move. ”
Melwitz was not surprised, and said to Kuzhi, "I don't want him to leave the imperial capital and go elsewhere because he suffered a loss in the last fight with you. ”
"You don't have to worry about that, I don't think he left the imperial capital, he just went into hiding. ”
When Melwitz saw that Kuzhi had such an opinion, he asked, "How so?"
Ku Zhi replied unhurriedly: "In the past two days, in addition to some people talking about the basilisk, there have been new rumors in the imperial capital. ”
Melwiitz didn't know what the new rumors were referring to, and Kaz hadn't reported it to him, so he hurriedly asked, "Tell me about it." ”
Ku Zhi nodded slightly, and said what he had learned: "I overheard, someone in the city is talking about the black shadow, and after thinking about it, except for the black-robed person, I'm afraid there won't be a second person." ”
Melwitz looked Ku Zhi up and down with strange eyes, and Ku Zhi couldn't understand what Mel Wiz meant.
"Don't look at me, how can I be discovered by ordinary people. ”
Merwiitz realized that Kuzhi's insight was not much lower than that of the witcher, and withdrew his strange gaze.
"Whether there is a basis or not, it is time to act. ”
Ku Zhi agreed with Meliwitz's statement, so he said, "You are right, I'm afraid the black-robed person can't bear it anymore. ”
Melwidz smoothed the beard on his chin with his hand, and immediately made up his mind, saying, "I'll go to the Demon Hunting Guild tomorrow to discuss the plan with Tatar." ”
Ku Zhi asked rhetorically, "What about me?"
Melwitz thought for a moment, and replied to Kuzhi: "You will continue to be in your current state, after all, the world knows that you have made an expedition to the northwest. ”
Ku Zhi asked again: "Then how should the plan we discussed before be implemented?"
"Tomorrow I'll go to the Demon Hunter Guild in the evening, and you'll be hiding nearby and following the plan. ”
"Well, I see. Seeing that he had almost said all that he had to say, Ku got up from the couch and planned to leave the palace in Melwitz.
"Wait a minute. Melwitz spoke suddenly, stopping Kuzhi from leaving.
Ku Zhi turned around and asked, "Is there anything else you need?"
Melwitz raised his hand and pointed to the bathroom in front of him: "Go bubble in the bath, I'll pay you compensation." ”
"Then I might as well be respectful. Kuzhi didn't give Melwitz any politeness, and strode to the bathroom, intending to get a good look at it.

Let's say that the next day, March 16, the day was calm and calm, and nothing troublesome happened. Apart from dealing with some of the legacy of disaster relief, Meliwitz no longer has any other official duties.
In the evening of that day, Melwiitz returned to the dormitory to change into civilian clothes for going out, and instead of leaving the palace immediately to go to the Demon Hunting Guild, he summoned Is, who had been in charge of guarding Edmund's safety, to the dormitory.
Is's dress was no longer as rough and casual as it used to be, he was covered with a red and black brocade trench coat, lined with heart guards made for him by Melwitz, and wore loose pants and a pair of ankle-grabbing leather military boots.
When Isis came to the dormitory in Melwitz, he saw that his boss was wearing civilian clothes, and after saluting, he asked, "Boss, where are you going?"
Melwiitz was standing in front of a floor-to-ceiling mirror at the moment to straighten his collar and casually replied, "No. ”
Isis was obviously disappointed, and complained to Meliwicz: "Boss, you don't take me, you have to let me hold back in this palace!"
Melwiitz straightened his collar, turned to look at Is, and said, "Then you will go out of the palace tomorrow." ”
Isko didn't think that he could impress Melivitz by crying like this, so he asked weakly, "Boss, so... Then who will protect the prince?"
Without thinking, Melwitz said to Iss: "Let Deng come, and tomorrow you go to him, and say that I ordered him." ”
When Isis heard this, he felt a little uneasy in his heart, so he asked again: "That... What about in the future?"
Melwitz replied, "Of course it's still you, is there a problem?"
Although Is's heart was steady, he still didn't understand Meliwicz's intentions: "That boss is... Why did you let me out of the palace for no reason?"
Seeing that Isis was like a curious baby, Melwitz took the trouble to explain: "In the afternoon, Levine told me that his uncle had come to the imperial capital, and brought Aresa with him, so you can go directly to the Quild Chamber of Commerce tomorrow to take people back to the palace." ”
Is's heart beat noticeably faster when he heard Aressa's name. He hesitated for a while, holding back his red face for a long time before he spoke: "Boss, this... It's not appropriate. ”
"It's fitting to make Aretha a royal lady. ”
Iss's face was embarrassed, and he stammered a little and said, "Boss, you, you are abusing your power again..."
In Melwiez's memory, Iss was not a care-loving man, so he said, "Oh, yes, if you don't want to see it, I'll say nothing." ”
Isis hurriedly said: "No, no, no, thank you boss, thank you boss!"
"Go down, I've got some more things to deal with. ”
"My subordinates obey orders! Boss, I'm leaving!" Isis was already overjoyed, and left the dormitory all the way.
When Melwitz saw that Iss was gone, he left the dormitory and headed for the Demon Hunter Guild......
