Chapter 1098: It's quite frustrating
Barbara was very displeased, she erected a pair of pointed ears, puffed out a pair of small cheeks, a pair of cat's eyes were round, bared small tiger teeth, opened a pair of delicate little hands, shook ten sharp nails, and threatened me: "Give me a reason not to bend you!" ”
I sighed and said, "Because you are not an adventurer, and you have never faced life and death, it is difficult for you to accept such a serious and depressing atmosphere." ”
Barbara tilted her head and thought for a while, moved her ears, and then rubbed her fingers on her cheeks, and asked me again, "What you said is true?" ”
Helplessly, I said, "I don't need to deceive you about this kind of thing." ”
Barbara looked at me, then turned her head to look at the proprietress again, and after seeing the proprietress nodding slightly, she hugged me, snorted lightly, and said arrogantly: "Okay, I'll believe you this time!" ”
Outside, Lirea and I walked briskly towards Wren's treehouse, sensing everything around me as we went, not that I was overprotective, but that I was annoyed that someone from the Elven Assassination Team had been secretly following me lately.
Lirea saw my vigilance and wondered, "Xiao Yi, why are you so nervous?" ”
I leaned close to her and whispered, "I've been being followed by the assassination team lately, so I have to guard against it. ”
Lirea was stunned for a moment, and said thoughtfully, "So this is true......"
When I saw that Lirea's face was a little unnatural, I leaned over and asked her, "What's wrong with you?" ”
Lirea whispered: "Not long ago, I also noticed that someone from the assassination team appeared near us, but I thought they were on a mission, but I didn't expect it to be like this." ”
"It's not too late to find out," I said, "If you're being followed next time, remember to keep an eye on me, look at the costumes of the assassination squads, and if you can, find out who the commander of the assassination team is tracking us." ”
After hearing this, Lirea not only raised her eyebrows and asked me, "Xiao Yi, what are you going to do?" ”
I smiled slightly: "If the thief wants to capture the king, I naturally want to find an opportunity to meet their supreme commander in person." ”
"No way!" Lirea exclaimed, "You can't do that! ”
"Why?" I was puzzled.
"Since the other party can send someone to follow us, it means that he has taken full countermeasures, and once he ventures, he will inevitably fall into a trap!" Lirea said solemnly: "Xiao Yi, although I can usually indulge your nonsense, but I will never allow you to do this, I think, not only me, but also those people in the family will definitely not allow you to do this!" ”
"Okay, okay" I waved my hand: "I know, I won't do it, I really won't go, I promise!" ”
Lirea stared at me for a long time before she exhaled lightly and said, "Believe your words, if you dare to mess around, be careful that I tell the others to go!" ”
I smiled wryly and stopped talking.
When I came to the door of Wren's house, I knocked on the door a few times according to the set code, and soon, the door opened a crack, and an old but rather sharp gaze shot out, it was Wren.
Then, the door opened, and I was the first to enter, followed by Lirea.
The room was still dark and silent, except for the wine bottles scattered all over the floor and the stacked unopened wine crates, which looked like a ghostly glow.
Wren sat back on the couch and continued to draw something at his desk.
I habitually sat across from Wren and motioned for Lirea to sit next to me.
Wren didn't look up, and said while drawing, "What's the matter?" ”
I said, "I want your help." ”
He raised his head, glanced at Lirea, and said, "Do you want me to gather my apprentices to fight with her men?" ”
"No," I said, "Besides, it's been booked before, and I'll talk about it after your apprentice comes out." ”
"Oh," he said, turning to me, "what do you need me to help you with?" ”
"Interrogation" I said: "If nothing else, the day after tomorrow, I may catch one, no, maybe several people, I need your interrogation ability, help me take out the information I want to know from the other party's mouth, the information should be as true as possible, and be detailed." ”
"All I need to do is this?" Wren asked.
"That's all you need to do," I said.
"By any means?" Wren asked again.
"By any means," I laughed.
"Okay, it's on me" Wren also grinned, he smiled, and the already hideous scar on his face instantly became even more hideous.
I straightened up and looked around, "By the way, what about your apprentices?" ”
"They've been driven into the Elven Forest by me," Wren said, "and by now, they're probably sleeping under a mound of dirt." ”
"Mounds?" I smiled, "It's a good place to sleep." ”
"Oh?" Wren asked me, "Have you slept under the mound too?" ”
"No," I said, "I don't really like the feeling of being pressed against my body, but I did sleep on top of the corpses, and I didn't sleep very well, and the smell was very fishy and unpleasant, and there was a faint smell." ”
"Haha" Wren's laughter was very harsh, and it seemed so mad in this dark and silent room: "I didn't expect that my master had such an interesting experience." ”
"You should have been able to think of it, no, you should have known it a long time ago," I said, "Since we first met, you have sent someone to investigate my experience, and although you can't find anything, you can still know some fragments of information. ”
"How did you know I was investigating you?" Wren stopped laughing and said seriously.
I smiled slightly: "The person who can choose to use the casino as a place to hide his identity must be a very cautious person." ”
Wren's eyes narrowed, and he looked at me quietly, and after a little, he chuckled: "No wonder you are the master, and I can only be your subordinate." ”
As he spoke, he stopped looking at me, buried himself in his desk, and continued to draw on the blank paper.
Leaving the study, Lirea felt a little palpitating and said, "Xiao Yi, this person looks cold and sharp, like a dagger. ”
I put my arm around her shoulders and said, "Daggers are fine, daggers can be hidden on any side of the body, they are not easy to be detected, and they are very deadly." ”
"This person, where did you recruit him?" Lirea asked.
"By chance," I said, "he opened a casino, and I happened to be making trouble in that casino, and then we met." ”
Lirea: ......
I said, "Don't be so surprised, this is actually quite normal, no one can say anything about fate, isn't it?" ”
Lirea pursed her lips, noncommittal.
I rubbed her fragrant shoulder, pointed to the night sky, and said, "Just like the fate between us, it is from this night sky, but ours is more romantic." ”
Lirea blinked her starry eyes and suddenly said: "No, our fate is not the night sky, but the arrow I shot, and ah, at that time, you were really frustrated except for the blood of your body." ”
I:......
