It stands to reason that Lirea is a member of the cadre level and should have the right to know about the most senior cadre, but the truth is the opposite.

Lirea's superior, the supreme commander of the elven assassination team, has never shown up once, and any mission is issued by an unknown special personnel, and those who pass the task will directly stay in the team that issued the task after the mission, become a member of it, and accompany the team to carry out the mission.

Usually after the mission is completed, they will disappear at an unknown time, and in some cases, they can be found and followed, but unfortunately, the opponent's anti-tracking ability is quite good, even an experienced assassin like Lirea will be lost.

Hearing this, I couldn't help frowning: I really didn't expect that the other party had made so many precautions in order to conceal his identity, and even the personnel who delivered the news were specially trained.

"If they are also members of the highest level of the elf race, is it possible to know each other's identities?" I asked Lirea.

"What do you mean......" Her eyes flashed, and I nodded.

Then, Lirea fell into a brief contemplation, and then said, "I should know, after all, they are both the highest officials, and their jurisdictions are open to each other. ”

"That's going to be easy," I grinned.

......

......

That night, I sneaked into Elder Sonoda's villa again.

At this moment, Elder Sonoda Mai was still working, and the thick pile of materials was almost about to overwhelm her.

When she saw me come in, she lowered her head again and continued to work, completely ignoring my presence.

"Elder Sonoda Mai" I was also unceremoniously, pulled up a chair, sat down at her desk, and said, "I have a question for you." ”

"Say."

"Who among you elders is in charge of the assassination squad?"

"What are you asking for?" She looked up, her eyes filled with vigilance and doubt.

"After I came out of your villa just now, I was followed by the assassination team."

"Are you sure it must be the Assassination Squad? And not some other enemy? Elder Sonoda looked at me with a frown, his eyes full of distrust.

"It's definitely the Assassination Squad," I said, flashing my crossbow bolt and placing it on her desk, "Besides, someone has already identified it for me." ”

"You mean the kid named Lirea," Mai Sonoda nodded, "She was indeed the best member of the assassination team. ”

"Oh? Are you familiar with her? I laughed, "Or are you the real master of the assassination team?" ”

"It's not me" Elder Sonoda Mai shook her head, and suddenly, her eyes tightened, staring at me and said, "What would you do if you knew who that person was?" ”

"I'll pretend I don't know and go on with my life."

"Why?" Elder Sonoda Mai was surprised, "According to your character, you should find an opportunity to kill her." ”

I shook my head: "You still don't know me, you may not believe me, I have always had a clear grudge, whether it is killing or saving people, I always have to figure out the reason before I can do it, speaking of which, among the elders, except for you and Elder Prisla, who have opinions about me, the other elders will not have such a deep prejudice against me, of course, if it is because of some of my behaviors and behaviors that inadvertently offend other elders, it is not impossible, after all, I am such a country man, and I don't know how to be polite, I can't say anything beautiful and moving. ”

"You can rest assured of this," Elder Sonoda said, "Our elders' minds may not be as good as the sky and the sea, but we can still tolerate some bad actions of civilians. ”

"Yes, yes, as you said," I said, "since you can tolerate my rudeness, you will not reveal the murderous intention to me, since the murderous intention is revealed, then someone must be manipulating all this behind the scenes, what I want to do is not to seek revenge on the elder, but to lure out the force hidden behind the elder." ”

Elder Sonoda Mai listened to this, and said in a deep voice: "Those forces that even I can't see and can't figure out, can you draw them out with just your little cleverness?" ”

"I can't tell," I smiled, "after all, those who have great wisdom never pay attention to small wisdom, and it is often because of this that small wisdom will gradually grow and eventually become a decisive good idea." ”

Hearing my words, Elder Sonoda Mai nodded to herself, silent for a while, and then she asked me, "After I tell you the name, can you promise not to shake Her Majesty's position and not to worsen the relationship between elves and goblins?" ”

"I can guarantee it."

"Okay, I'll tell you," said Elder Sonoda, "it's Elder Lindsay who is in charge of the latest batch of assassination squads. ”

"Elder Lindsay?" I thought for a moment: "Is that the old witch who misinterpreted the contents of Master Dewey's letter to the Empress before?" ”

Elder Sonoda didn't answer, but stared at me and said, "You shouldn't have called me that too, did you?" ”

I was stunned, licked my face and smiled: "Where can I be, you are such a majestic elder, where do I dare to tease you, hehe." ”

"You kid, there is a bit of treachery in your smile, I don't believe what you just said," Elder Sonoda Mai shook his head.

Cut, this made you discover, what a sensitive old witch!

......

......

There's a reason why I didn't choose to do it after figuring out who was in charge of the assassination squad.

There are two reasons for this: first, it is indeed because I want to fish out the mysterious organization hidden behind Elder Lindsay; Second, is it possible that someone pretended to be a member of the assassination team and did it against me in order to blame Elder Lindsay.

Both of these scenarios are possible, and neither of them can be ignored, and once ignored, it is likely to affect my plans for the future.

Moreover, there was an element of lie in what I had just said to Elder Sonoda—it was not that I was followed and assassinated after I came out of Elder Sonoda's villa, but that I was killed after I left Wren's treehouse.

The reason why she lied was also to create tension for Elder Sonoda Mai to a certain extent, forcing her to tell who the assassination team was more natural.

In any case, a cautious person like her would not be able to easily compel without some special means.

......

......

When I got home, the hall was empty, and there was no one in the courtyard, so I guess everyone had already gone back to their rooms.

I also cleaned up briefly and went back to my room.

As soon as the door was closed, the phoenixes and the others came around and asked me how I was doing.

I shrugged my shoulders: "I didn't get much information, but I was able to determine one thing, and it was Elder Lindsay who was in charge of the assassination team now." ”
