Although Earl Stewart was enthusiastic, it was as if David was his half-brother who had been separated for many years and was finally reunited today.

But David couldn't be happy at all, and always felt that he had inexplicably become Earl Stewart's confidant, more like he was scolding him.

With an awkward but polite smile in return, David and Earl Stewart had a brief chat, asked about the party, and accepted each other's invitation.

But then David declined the invitation to visit Earl Stewart's house, and personally sent the Earl out of the inn.

Glancing at the carriage on which the Count had boarded, David stood still and looked at it for a few moments, and then turned back to the inn.

Newton had gone back to his room to rest, and had placed the hammer of judgment in the living room so that David wouldn't knock on his door if he needed it.

Sharon was waiting for him to come back, presumably to ask David some questions.

As a result, David just waved his hand at her, signaling her not to speak, and then, under Sharon's gaze, sat down on the chair next to the window, and at the same time took out an electronic device from his waist bag and tucked the earphones attached to it into his ear.

“……”

Sharon blinked and looked at each other, immediately realizing what David was doing. Davy had the receiver of the bug in his hand, and it wasn't strange that David could get this thing, Sharon, she was just curious when Davy was? And where did the bugging device go?

"Carriage?"

David nodded, and Sharon walked to the door of the room, leaning against the wall and holding her shoulders.

David, who had already adjusted the signal band, listened carefully to the sound coming from the headphones, he was not sure if he could hear what he wanted to know. But being idle is also idle, in case you hit the big luck and happen to hear any useful information? Especially when David noticed that Earl Stewart was not alone in the carriage.

After a moment of silence, the sound of conversation began to appear in the headphones......

"You should insist on inviting that young man, it's not the same as saying yes." A man dressed in a clean gown, sitting across from the Earl of Sutton-Stewart, dressed differently from his attendant, but easily overlooked by the Earl of Stewart's ornate gown: "You should understand that this man is a good pawn. ”

"You take it for granted, with that young man's character, it's not like I will agree if I continue to insist on the invitation." The Earl of Sutton-Glamorgan closed his eyes as if to recuperate, and did not even give a straight eye to the man opposite: "I have seen many such young men, you have to trust my judgment." If it weren't for you, I would have been prepared to wait a few more days before coming to him, and wouldn't have invited him to a party in a few days. ”

"I trust your judgment, I've seen many stark examples over the years, and your judgment of people is always so accurate."

"So, what are you worried about? Are you afraid that someone will take the credit first? Earl Stewart opened his eyes a little and looked at the man in front of him: "Don't worry at all, Beram. Those of your companions are unlikely to succeed. ”

Beram didn't make a sound, but there was a slight momentary abnormality on his face.

Earl Stewart was keenly aware of this abnormal reaction, and his expression, which he didn't care about, disappeared instantly, and warned the other party in a solemn and serious tone: "I don't want to say something like that again, go back and tell your companions that the Kingdom of Tiran is not the Kingdom of the Holy Gunth, and this is not a place where you can act recklessly." ”

"......" Beram did not say anything further, allowing Earl Stewart to express his displeasure.

Earl Stewart, realizing that it was useless to say more, just snorted heavily, closed his eyes again and pretended to sleep, ready to recover more of the energy that had been consumed too much last night......

David opened his eyes, took off the headphones, and turned off the receiver to put the receiver away.

After David had done this, Sharon walked up to David and took a chair and sat across from him: "What? ”

"It's out of reach."

"You're actually going to test the reception range in the morning?" It dawned on Sharon why David had gotten up so early.

"Yes." David got up early in the morning to try to see where he could get the signal from the earl's eavesdropper.

"......" Sharon was suddenly curious, how many bugs did David install?

"Two." David raised his hand and gestured with a '(^-^) V': "One on the carriage, the next at the table." ”

Sharon nodded, she didn't ask why she had bugs on the carriage, she also thought about it yesterday when she found out that the carriage was extremely soundproof, and she also thought that the carriage was good for talking about intimate matters.

Moreover, the carriage can be constantly moved to avoid people lurking nearby, further reducing the possibility of eavesdropping. However, no matter how cautious the Earl of Stewart was, he would never have imagined that anyone would be able to eavesdrop on his conversation with the advanced technology of another world.

"Do you hear any useful information?"

"The Earl is working with someone."

The man named Beram, David suspects that he is someone sent by the Temple, and these people in the Temple seem to want to do something in the Kingdom of Tiran.

It's not hard to guess what the specifics are, the Kingdom of Tiran is the only country in the human kingdom that doesn't honor the Temple, and it is not surprising that the Temple wants to radiate its influence into this kingdom, and it is not surprising that it will do anything. Cooperating with the magnates of the Kingdom of Tiran is a very normal choice.

Relaying what she had heard, Sharon also gave a similar guess as David: "Moreover, this man named Beram seems to have his eye on us...... Why is he eyeing us? ”

"What's strange about this, in the capital of the Kingdom of Tiran, it is not difficult to understand that it is not difficult to understand that it is not difficult to try to change directions." From this eavesdropping, David felt that the appearance of the assassin was not surprising.

Since the Templar can send people to cooperate with the magnates of the royal capital of Tiran, it is natural that it can also cooperate with the magnates of Irontree Castle, and that assassin may have been sent by a nobleman of Irontree Castle to deal with David, and that assassin may have thought that he was just doing a small favor at the time, but he didn't expect that he would kick David's iron plate.

Who is behind the scenes? The Forrester family is the most suspicious.

"First occupy the more remote areas of the Tiran Kingdom, and then influence the royal capital through various places." This time, the man named Beram seemed to want to list his Winter Village as an area to be occupied: "From the conversation between these two people, it can be known that these people sent by the Temple to the Kingdom of Tiran also have many internal contradictions. ”

Sharon was also aware of the situation, but she didn't know if it was a good thing or a bad thing for David.

"Of course it's a good thing, if it weren't for that, how could the Earl have come to us so quickly?" It was clear that the Earl's attitude towards the two had changed dramatically, from two new toys to a target for strategies to maintain relationships with partners.

The key to the conversion was that Beram.

This change in role positioning also gives David room to maneuver: "If I'm not mistaken, at this party, Earl Stewart is likely to actively promote the upgrading of Winter Village to Winter Town. ”

"Well, and it will make you a baron."

"Well, it shouldn't be ......"

The Earl likes to play with people's hearts, and must know that you can't put all the chips on the table at once, and it is easier to build a long-term relationship than to pay it all at once, and it will also help you to implement various plans in the future.

"By the way, did you anticipate this situation for a long time?" After Sharon and David discussed for a moment, they suddenly realized one thing: "Otherwise, how could you install a bug in advance?" ”

"How is that possible? I don't know how to prophesy. Fordin had jokingly called him a prophet, and Varian believed him as a prophet, but David's prophet could only be used in familiar worlds, and it was not included here: "Just to be on the safe side, I installed two bugs." ”

He felt that it would not be a hassle to install two bugs, and that he might be able to get more information about Earl Stewart, and if he was lucky, he would be able to hear how the Earl would 'arrange' him and Sharon next, so that he could also prepare in advance for all kinds of situations that might arise.

This information, like the one I heard today, is a pure windfall.

"You're in luck."

"I've always had luck." David nodded, and accepted Sharon's compliment very calmly.

After all, not just anyone can live two lives, and in the second life, they can still get the golden finger, get the help of various familiar characters in their previous lives, and master the mysterious power that they could only feel in the game.

If you think you're unlucky, what's going to be good luck?

"At the very least, it's going to be SSS-class."

"yes, yes, absolutely." After Sharon responded a few times, she seriously thought about what kind of impact the information she heard today would have on Winter Village.

Further, what will be the impact on yourself? She lives in Winter Village, and she will continue to live in Winter Village for a long time to come.

Sharon is very different from the others, that is, she can't return to her own world at any time, so she takes the situation in Winter Village very seriously.

Thinking about it, she suddenly thought of a problem that she had overlooked: it seemed that since the appearance of the Earl of Stewart, her identity had been misunderstood.

Because of her disgust with the earl, she still hadn't explained to the earl that her relationship with David was not what he thought it was.

"It seems that I have suffered a loss, but it seems that I have not lost anything?"
