"Now the question becomes interesting. Pannis leaned back in his chair, folded his hands in front of his chest, squinted his eyes, and said, "What would be the purpose of the two men disguised as the other two people just to pass on the message to us?"

"According to what you just said, do you want you to leave immediately?" asked Nicholas, "but if it is only for this purpose, there should be many other methods, there is no need to use such a troublesome one, and there is a high possibility that it will be exposed." ”

"No, no, No, His Royal Highness, the possibility of being exposed is actually not very large. Catherine said with a strange face: "No wonder I always feel so disobedient all this way, I'm afraid this is the answer, heh, they are really cautious." ”

"Let's follow the timeline to reconstruct the process. Pannis tapped his fingers on his arm and said in a distracted manner: "First of all, some people want us to rush to the place where the tragedy happened as soon as possible, without considering the reason or whether the destination is the border area of a neutral place, anyway, I hope that we will leave as far as possible." ”

"That's right, so they designed a scene the night before yesterday. Catherine said: "Deliberately ask the two mages to raise their volume to communicate, so that we can be interested in the content of their exchanges, and then take the initiative to ask them, so that because we take the initiative ourselves, at most, we have doubts about the authenticity of the information we get, and it is very difficult to doubt the information itself." Oh, these people are also bothered to study the human heart, and know how to easily gain the trust of others and avoid the suspicion of others. ”

And most importantly, the message they sent was true. Pannis nodded: "There is nothing more hidden than using truth as a lie, and after determining the authenticity of the news, we instinctively linked the truth of their identity with the truth of this news." Naturally, I believe their lies about my identity and neglect to find out who they are. Of course, it's also difficult for us to verify, because they are very similar in disguise, with the same strength and the same physical characteristics. Even one of them has a similar personality. I can be sure that the two people in disguise show their original character, if not, they want to deliberately disguise their own character, but it will be easy for us to see through. ”

"Therefore, they also know that there are loopholes in their plans, and there is a possibility that they will be seen through by us. Catherine continued: "So they took other measures to keep the plan hidden, no, no, the chronology was wrong. They had thought about this from the very beginning, and had already made preparations before these two people met with us. Nicholas, it seems that you are an insurance measure they have set up for their plans. ”

"Me?" said Nicholas with a wry smile, "It seems that this problem caused by this misunderstanding in border trade was deliberately arranged by them, just to let me come to Wangshan City to walk around?"

"Looks like they know you and your family well, Your Highness Nicholas. Freya covered her lips like a lady and said with a smile, "They know very well that once you appear at Wangshan Fortress. In order to curry favor with you, the magistrate will definitely close the freight lane. And in order not to let the caravan stay outside the city, the lords and caravans on Bout's side must have been notified in advance, so that they could delay the departure time, hehe. ”

"Due to the nature of transportation within the Mage Nation, there are very few freight caravans within their borders. Catherine glared at Freya reproachfully, only to get her tongue out and shrink to the side. The knight girl shook her head helplessly and said: "The caravans of the Mage Country are often concentrated in the border areas, and once the collective departure is delayed, it will lead us to the situation that we encountered, that is, except for the local farmers and herdsmen, there is not a single traveler along the way. The lords of the Mage Nation are for the farmers and herdsmen in the realm. Just like the existence of gods, these ordinary people may not understand what the preferences of their lords flying in the sky are for the rest of their lives, let alone whether they are introverts or extroverts, so they can let these farmers and herdsmen meet us without care, and those caravans who may have dealt with the lords, even if the probability of exposure is negligible, they must try to avoid letting those people meet us. ”

"If everything goes according to plan, we should run all the way to the border area without noticing, and then spend a lot of time investigating the tragedy, and then follow the clues that may be investigated, and we will not find out that we have been deceived for a long time. Pannis smiled sarcastically and said: "But sure enough, as the sentence said, the more complicated and careful the plan, in fact, the more likely it is to have problems, they have designed all the qiē, but I didn't expect that Your Royal Highness the prince actually didn't leave the Wangshan Fortress in time according to the schedule, and as a result, you met with us, and talked about the two mage lords." ”

"No, Pannis. Catherine disagreed: "I think it is impossible for them to have planned their itinerary without taking into account the change of itinerary of His Highness Nicholas, but they are not worried. ”

"Well, you're right. Pannis nodded: "They really know a lot of things, and it seems that they have also taken into account some ...... between us and His Royal Highness In the past, according to common sense, even if His Royal Highness the Prince stayed in Wangshan Fortress, we should both deliberately avoid meeting, so as not to embarrass everyone. However, they didn't expect that His Royal Highness the prince was so young, and he already had the decisiveness that a mature nobleman should have, so there was a loophole. ”

"Heh, I think you're wrong. Although Pannis's words sounded like a compliment to him, Nicholas was not happy at all, and always had a strange feeling. But from the pressure he felt on Pannisy just now, he could already guess a little bit of Pannis's true strength, so he used honorifics to Pannis for the first time and said: "I think they just didn't expect that Catherine knew me so well, and she didn't choose to avoid it from the beginning." As for me...... Hehe. ”

"Whatever the reason, we finally found out about their plan anyway. Sensing that the atmosphere of the conversation between several people was very delicate, Mur coughed dryly, breaking the situation in embarrassment: "Of course, now we are just guessing, this is actually very easy to verify, just find a way to meet the two lords." But that's not the point, the key question is, what are they doing this for, and why are they going to such trouble to deliver the message to us?" (to be continued......
