Chapter XVII. Krause

It was ten o'clock in the evening when the meeting at the headquarters of the Royal Academy ended.

At the end of the meeting, some of the people who walked out of the conference room were solemn, some were expressionless, and some were sweaty and had no faces.

Shi shì stayed, but the "old man" he often mentioned, Director Tang Xian, was one step ahead.

Kou Linzai also stayed, he just said hello to Ju Sheng, and the latter didn't ask much.

Krauser sat on the chair and did not move, his elbows propped up on the table, his fingers facing each other, resting near the middle of the people, silently watching the crowd in the conference room leave.

When the electronics were turned off again, the three of them were the only ones left in the room.

"You have something to say to me. Krauser said.

Shi Shiì actually changed his habit of speaking at an astonishing speed, and said in a very calm tone: "I want to confirm that HL's special agent Cha Xian has become history, right?"

"I would also like to be a detective. Krauser replied, "But there is only so much that the detectives can do, and I have to choose another identity in order to shoulder greater responsibilities." ”

"Hehe......" shì smiled: "I have been looking forward to the arrival of this day, if you are a prince, you can ...... it"

"It's the Emperor. Kou Linya suddenly said: "The identity he chose is not the seventh prince, but the supreme throne. ”

Even Shi Shishi was shocked when he heard this, and he turned to Krauser and said, "Hey...... I say...... Although your father is old, he is still in good health, don't you want to ......?"

"Just let him abdicate. Krauser calmly uttered an extremely dangerous remark: "Is it possible to complete the change of dynasty only through the death of the previous ruler? ”

"Since the establishment of the Empire, there has been no such precedent. "As far as I know, it may be more difficult to change the traditions of the empire than to eliminate the rebels. ”

"That's because you don't see through the source of the difficulty. Our dynasty uses a very backward centralized system, which should have been eliminated as early as the twentieth century. In my opinion, any tradition can be broken, and what we have before us is not a tradition. Krauser said: "Even if it is the name of 'emperor', it seems to me that it is nothing more than that. On the contrary, how many wretched wastes throughout the ages have clung to this name in the palm of their hands and wanted to bring it to the cemetery, and how many of them are worthy of this supreme power?

As far as the empire is concerned, the first emperor is indeed a hero, swallowing the eight wildernesses and sweeping the **, vibrating the long strategy and the imperial universe, and anyone who has read the history books will undoubtedly become his supporters. No amount of blood on his hands could hide his great achievements in building a vast empire.

But what about the second and the third, all the way up to my father, with all due respect, one generation is not as good as the next.

Look at the current empire, what is this so-called stable and prosperous dynasty like? This world should not depend on people according to law, but because there are nobles and royal families, it is necessary to rely not only on people, but also on people's families...... As long as you have a good background, even if you are a pig, you can be a big official. This is the world that the aristocracy wants, monopolizing official careers, occupying the superstructure, controlling public opinion, mastering ideology, and accumulating insatiably to grasp the economic base.

If someone thinks that living under such a system can lead to an efficient and honest government and a fair and clear society, there must be something wrong with their brains.

Human beings are the most depraved creatures. Look at the inept garbage around you, and behind each of them is a group of garbage interests that have polluted countless people with a surviving conscience into something like them. More people will choose to join the same stream than to come out.

Those 'garbage' are 'difficulties', and any change that may infringe on their interests, any subversion of the so-called 'tradition', will make them sleep. ”

Krauser looked at Shi Shi: "Are you afraid of garbage?"

The corners of Shi Shi's mouth turned into a cruel smile: "If Your Highness allows it, I will dispose of them all." ”

Kou Linzai smiled: "We are living on the garbage mountain, if you set a fire and burn it, there will be nothing, you have to take your time." ”

Krauser knew that the two of them were in the same boat as himself, so he dared to say anything to them: "You are my friends, whether I am the Tea Fairy, the Seventh Prince, or the Emperor, this will not change." I need your help in what I want to do in the future, and you are the only ones I can fully trust. ”

"You're giving us some kind of authorization...... Shi Shishi said: "I don't care what kind of false title like 'Monkey King' will be given next, just tell me, is there any one else you can't kill and can't do in the future?"

"There is indeed a boundary. Krauser suddenly changed the subject: "Do you remember the son of the Marquis of Claes?"

"Of course, that dead fat man had a holiday with me. Shi shì replied.

"The next time we meet, you can kill him. Krauser said lightly, "But after you have killed someone, if someone wants to arrest you according to the law, you don't resist." ”

"Oh...... The line is here. Shi shì kind of understood.

Krauser turned to Kou Linzai and said, "Sir, your power is the same. ”

Kou Linzai smiled decadently: "My subordinates are flattered, I feel that I am sobbing and doing my best...... Death or something will be spared. ”

Krauser stood up and took his thermos: "Since the dawn, your position will change, and after that, you will be directly under my command and follow me at my disposal." ”

"Huh...... Don't you think we're pulling a hill like this, and it's becoming a bit like a reverse cross?" said Kou Linzai.

Krauser stood there and was silent for a few seconds: "Tianyi, is still the only opponent I identify, and the reverse cross is the biggest threat to the empire. His gaze shifted to Kou Linzai: "Wen has the wisdom of a consultant. He looked at Shi shì again: "The courage of the weapon and the blood lord." He turned and left: "You can fight with one of them." ”

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

When I returned to the palace quarters, it was nearly midnight.

As soon as Krauser entered Mén, a young and beautiful NV servant greeted him shyly: "Your Highness, Miss Jiang Yun is ......"

"Are you waiting for me again......" Krauser guessed before the other party could finish speaking: "Okay, I know, you guys should rest early." ”

In recent months, Krause's dormitory has been a shotgun change, eh...... It's a bit vulgar to lift a cannon, let's just say it's earth-shaking and new.

In the Lu Ding Ji, Wei Xiaobao copied out almost unlimited funds, several superb orange suits, and forty-two chapters of the task items.

Krause's experience was similar to his, he only disposed of a few powerful people of the same level as Rensted, and now his residence became similar to that of other princes. Not to mention that the decoration is extremely luxurious, the magnificence is still more appropriate, and the number of NV servants is also growing at a very terrifying rate, and the bedrooms of the Seven Princes are about to become a shelter for the lost NV.

Jiang Yun sat on the sofa in the living room, holding a book in her hand, but she didn't seem to look at it at all, thinking about something in her mind.

She was wearing a very elegant dress without any makeup, even so, she was also a beautiful blue heart, and she was moving.

Hearing the footsteps, Jiang Yun raised her head, and when she saw Krause, she smiled and put down the book in her hand, and she said in sign language: "Is it going well today?"

Krauser didn't sit down, he stood beside Jiang Yun, let out a gentle smile, and replied: "Okay, you can rest early, you don't have to wait for me every time." ”

Jiang Yun shook his head slightly, the corners of his mouth slightly upturned, as if to say, "It's okay."

She stood up, suddenly thought of something, and turned back to sign language: "The tea I prepared, do you like it?"

"Well, it's delicious. Krauser nodded and replied sincerely: "Please cook it for me in the future." ”

Jiang Yun responded to him with a smile, and no matter when, Krauser could always see a trace of imperceptible bitterness in her smile.

She went back to her room, and Krauser watched her figure leave, and then sat down on the couch.

This is an NV person who he doesn't know what expression to use to face, for some reason, after that day, she stayed by his side, neither master nor servant, not wife or friend.

She had nowhere to go, and he couldn't bear to let her leave alone, two lonely people, naturally living under the same roof.

Jiang Yun was stronger than Krauser imagined, and after she woke up, she didn't collapse because of the memory of blood and killing, but just cried for days. She later told Krauser that she was sad that she could no longer speak.

Krauser felt that she was too kind, how could any innocent person who had suffered such a misfortune be sad, she should be angry, she should be hated...... But Jiang Yun never showed any resentful eyes, and it didn't take long for a smile on her face.

Every time he saw her smile, Krauser could convince himself that there was salvation in this world, that there was goodness in people, and that those beautiful things were worth fighting for.

If it weren't for Tianyi sending Jiang Yun to Krause, maybe Krauser would have become another Tianyi, his bottom line was constantly retreating, he became unscrupulous, ruthless, and looking for a reasonable reason for his behavior.

But now, at least Krauser knows what he does, what his ideals are. He still has a kindness.

Perhaps no one except Tianyi himself knows whether this move is to make Krause, an old enemy, never catch up with him, or just to make the participants of the game more distinct between good and evil.
