Listening to Garcia's words, Gawain frowned, and his expression became solemn: "The reason why the Pombo family didn't use the magic knight when they searched you, I guess it may be that the first few failures made them wary, thinking that there was a leak of information inside the magic knight." However, they are only suspicious of the lower and middle levels now, and they have not suspected me and a few deputy commanders for the time being.

But in any case, if it goes on like this, it will be exposed one day. The more time passes, the greater the danger, and the Pombo family will inevitably be on guard, so it's better for our cooperation to act early. This would be a good thing for everyone to end the Pombo family's rule over St. Louis as soon as possible. ”

"But we're not ready, Gawain. Garcia, the thin old man, sighed and said, "It's too hasty to act in advance, and we can't guarantee that we will have an overwhelming advantage in the process of action." Once the Pombo family is allowed to react and win over the wavering centrists, we will fail. ”

"Garcia, you're too conservative. Gawain shook his head and said, with a bit of accusation in his tone, "Not every action has to wait until there is a 100% chance of success, and sometimes we have to take some risks.

I know that those centrists have a lot of variables, but I also believe that they know that they have a better future on that side. If they choose the Pombo family, they will be a dog regardless of victory or defeat. And choose us, then they can be human at least once. ”

"Alas—" Garcia, the thin old man, sighed again, glanced at Gawain, knowing that it would be difficult to convince the other party, and said loudly, "Let's go into the room and talk about it in detail." ”

"It's fine. Gawain nodded in agreement, and said, "By the way, let your subordinates compile a copy of the information you have collected recently, and I will take a look." ”

"Okay. Garcia, a thin old man, led Gawain into a room next to the hall on the first floor.

......

More than half an hour later, Garcia, a thin old man, walked out of the same room with Gawain and sent Gawain to the exit of the stone building.

Garcia let out a long sigh, while Gawain frowned deeply, the two obviously had something to negotiate yet.

"I advise you to think about it after you go back, you really can't act too hastily. Even if you have to advance it, you have to have a plan. Garcia showed wrinkles on his forehead that turned into the word "Chuan", and said to Gao Wendao with a serious face.

Gawain glanced at Garcia, his brows furrowed even deeper, and said in a deep voice, "I think it's you who thinks about it, Garcia." Before, in Smulang City, how did you fail, have you forgotten, that is, you were too careful and too conservative. I admit that your caution has saved you from a lot of dangers, but sometimes you have to let go of it appropriately, don't be cautious all the time, and don't let caution become a rope that binds you. ”

Garcia was silent, bowed his head and did not speak again.

After a long time, he opened the wooden door of the stone building and said to Gao Wen: "Let's talk about this question next time we meet, I hope your mind will change at that time." ”

"I also hope that your mind will change as well. Okay, let's go, no need to send it. Gao Wen said, walked out of the door, quickly left the alley, and disappeared into the distance.

Garcia, the thin old man, looked in the direction in which Gawain had disappeared, shook his head, closed the wooden door, and turned back to the room on the first floor.

After entering the room, Garcia sat down at the table, flipped through the materials on the table, and found that he couldn't read it at all. He was still a little relieved of Gawain's impulsive behavior, and he was a little worried.

He said to himself: "There is always no harm in being careful, especially in the matter of St. Louis City, I really can't rush it." ”

After speaking, Garcia picked up the materials on the table and stood up, ready to put them on the bookshelf by the wall.

As a result, the moment he stood up, his eyes unintentionally swept to the opposite position of the table, his eyes widened suddenly, his hands trembled, and the materials he was holding fell to the ground with a "bang".

Garcia hurriedly bent down, quickly picked up the materials, and put them back on the table, before looking at the seat across the table in shock.

On the seat, there was a man sitting. The young face, the calm expression, the black clothes, the hands on the lap casually, looked at him quietly, I don't know when it appeared......

"Ash ...... Lord Crow, why are you back all of a sudden?" Garcia asked, struggling to composure. To be honest, the previous panic behavior really shouldn't have been for him, a veteran intelligence officer. But Richard's sudden appearance was really a bit unexpected - how could a big living person suddenly "grow" out of his seat like this?

Richard glanced at Garcia and said, "Don't panic, I just suddenly thought that something was forgotten in this room just now, and I just rushed back to get it." ”

If it is an ordinary person, it will definitely ask what it is that you have forgotten. But Garcia didn't, blinked his eyes, and said wisely: "Then my lord, do you have anything else to do besides taking things?"

"Well, you said that, I just asked. Richard said, pointing out the door, "The person who left just now is Gawain, the orthodox leader of the Pombo family's demonic knights, right?"

"Yes. Garcia nodded, not lying.

"How did he get together with you?" asked Richard.

"That's a long story. Garcia said, "Gawain's details are a bit complicated, and it is difficult to explain them in a short time, but one thing is certain, he is very dissatisfied with the rule of the Pombo family, and wants to change the order of St. Louis City, so he cooperates with us." ”

"When is he going to act?" asked Richard.

"This ......" Garcia hesitated for a moment, shook his head, "I don't know the specifics." ”

"It can't be just the last few days, right?" Richard leaned forward slightly, looked at Garcia, and asked seriously.

Garcia said, "Not really. ”

"Are you sure?" asked Richard surely.

Garcia's eyebrows moved, glanced at Richard's face, and asked with some caution, "Lord Grey Raven, you can't be dissatisfied with Gawain, right?"

"Not really. Richard shook his head, "I have no resentment with him, nor with his actions. However, I need to make sure that his actions will not conflict with some of my plans and lead to unexpected events. ”

"That's right. Garcia breathed a sigh of relief.

Richard looked at Garcia and said, "I have a cooperative relationship with you, and you and Gawain are also cooperative partners, in a sense, we are all in the same camp." Therefore, I think it is necessary to communicate any news in a timely manner, so as to save unnecessary misunderstandings and internal friction losses. ”

"Lord Crow, I understand what you said. Garcia said, "If Gawain does make a move, we will definitely let you know." ”

"That's good. Richard nodded, "If he doesn't act in the last few days, that's for the best." If I act in the last few days, it's nothing, the key is to keep me prepared so that it doesn't disrupt my plans. ”

"I promise not to let the unexpected happen. Garcia reassured.

"It's good, it's hard work. Richard said, stood up as he spoke, and said goodbye, "I'll see you when I have a chance." ”

As he spoke, he stepped out the door.

When Garcia got up and walked out the door, ready to send it off, he found that Richard had long since disappeared.

Stunned for a moment, Garcia looked around the hall to make sure that Richard had left, and couldn't help but touch his nose and said to himself: "You can easily come and go in this stone building without a trace, and it will be the level of an apprentice?

If you're really a wizard's apprentice, then I'm a slow, blind and deaf bad old man, and there's no need for this intelligence agency to exist. So, Lord Greyraven, you must not be a wizard apprentice, you must not. ”

Garcia affirmed, turning back to his room.
