Chapter 465: Night Talk
When the stone is gone, my whole body is square!
Like a water monkey, I writhed in the water, tumbling and changing positions, trying to find the whereabouts of the stone that had been exchanged for ten gold coins. (viii) (1) Chinese Network .ㄟ81.
Inside and out, I searched up and down for a long time, but the eggs and stones were gone.
Zach looked at me puzzled for a moment before asking, "What are you looking for?" ”
I made a few gestures out of thin air: "It's so big, a black stone, uh, vaguely transparent, do you see?" ”
Zach shook his head in confusion.
I thought about it for a moment, and then said, "It's the one that was in the palm of my hand before, oh, by the way, I was lying like this before, didn't you see it when you came in?" ”
I repeated the way I had been lying down again, turned my head, and looked at Zach expectantly.
Zach wiped his face, thought for a moment, shook his head and said, "I didn't see it, I did look at your hand when I came in...... There's nothing on it, and, Xiao Yi, I don't know when you got your tattoo. ”
I laughed dryly and chose to be silent.
Zach asked again, "Is that stone important, why don't I look for it with you?" ”
I quickly denied it, saying, "No, it's not very important, uh, it should be said that it is not important, yes, it is not important at all, that stone is just a record of a certain period of my life, well, that's it." ”
"Oh......"
Zach smiled, and then we fell into a brief silence.
At this time, several other people also walked in, and the topic was quickly moved to other places, and the matter of stones was put aside for the time being.
At night, the masked woman came to climb the wall again,
Jumping outside the hospital, we stood opposite each other and asked, "Is there any new information to tell us today?" ”
She gave me a blank look: "Can't I come and see you without intelligence?" ”
"Yes, why not" I laughed and said, "Or, are we still like before, looking at the stars and talking nonsense?" ”
"What nonsense, it's not good to talk at all," she said angrily.
"Well, you're right, look at my mouth."
"By the way, have you heard, the second young master's love general, Clark is dead."
"Oh......"
"Look at your expression, you already know?"
"Well, I got it."
She squinted, stared at me for a long time, and said, "Let me guess who told you, is it the third young master Rodney?" ”
I shook my head: "Don't guess, what's the use of guessing, by the way, after Clark died, did the second young master behave in any way?" ”
"What else can I show, I am very angry, my face is pale, and I have executed a few people who made mistakes."
"Venting one's anger on others is the malaise of those in power," I said, "and I pity those who have become victims." ”
"This is also a matter of no choice" She sighed: "Clark is one of the second young master's more powerful subordinates, and he is also a public figure, and he also has the right to mobilize the city guard, in general, he is a very important chess piece for the second young master's coup success, and he was removed so coldly, and no one can accept it." ”
I nodded, and suddenly he smiled evilly, "Guess who will do this?" ”
The masked woman frowned slightly, and said: "It's hard to say, after all, the second young master still has a lot of political enemies, in addition to the eldest young master and the third young master, the forces of foreign clans are also threatening their status, if it weren't for the old city lord behind his back, these three young masters would have to die at least." ”
"Which two?"
"The eldest young master and the second young master."
"Oh? Won't Rodney die? ”
She shook her head: "This third young master is very low-key, and he likes to hang out in the dungeon with his cousins and cousins, he doesn't look like a person who likes politics and has ambitions, and the more people like this, the better the chance of survival." ”
"In short, the second young master's chess piece is useless, and I don't know who he will find to replace it, and besides, I don't know who this person who intends to disintegrate the second young master's power is, and what he will do next."
"You seem to be getting interested in politics."
The masked woman suddenly approached me, her eyes emitting a seductive sheen, and the fragrance emanating from her body wafted into my nose, which made me feel refreshed.
I spread my hands and said, "I'm not interested in politics or anything at all, I'm just thinking about how to save my own lives in troubled times." ”
"Hee-hee" she laughed a few times, no affirmation, no denial, just raised her head slightly, looking at the night sky.
Tonight's stars are as bright as ever.
She and I looked at the stars back to back for a while, then suddenly jumped up, gently patted the dust behind her a few times, and said, "It's late at night, I'm leaving." ”
"Oh......"
She tilted her head to look at me for a moment and said, "Don't you send me?" ”
I smiled, "It's a pleasure." ”
Walking side by side for hundreds of meters, this time, she didn't say goodbye to me, but walked quietly like this.
I felt something unusual, so I asked, "You seem to be preoccupied today, has someone bullied you?" ”
She shook her head: "Who dares to bully me, I'm just ......"
She kept silent again, leaving me to think for myself.
However, there is a good saying: a woman's heart, a needle under the sea, you can't catch it, you can't find it, you can't guess it, as long as she doesn't say it, you just wait quietly until she wants to say it.
So, I chose to wait.
After walking for a while, she turned her head and said to me, "It's not far from my house, so let's send it here first." ”
I nodded.
She had just taken a few steps, but she turned back and whispered to me, "You have to remember, you must pay more attention to the people around the third young master." ”
"Huh?"
In my bewilderment, her lithe figure disappeared into the night.
What does this mean?
Pay attention to the people around the third young master?
Who will be around Rodney?
Harold?
No, no, he's the man of the city lord.
Ulla?
No, although she is Rodney's cousin, she is Harold's subordinate.
Who could that be?
It can't be Rodney's cousins...... Oh, and his own sister, the shy magician.
By the way, are these people worth my attention?
After thinking and meditating for a while, there was no result, so I simply didn't think about it, but turned around and went directly to the casino.
Entering the gate, the old man Wren was still fiddling with poker there, and he didn't know if he was telling fortunes or entertaining himself.
Shan Yong and the fat man were bored, playing cards and drinking wine.
I stepped forward to say hello, except for Shan Yong, several other people stood in two rows of flattering places, and the fat man also gave me a chair courteously.
After sitting down, Shan Yong stood in front of me and said in a natural tone: "Is there something wrong with me?" ”
"Of course," I said, "Has the Second Young Master come to you these days?" ”
He shook his head: "No, if you find it, I will contact you." ”
"Well, that's the best," I said, "I guess it won't be long before the Second Young Master will come to you." ”
"Why are you so sure?" He asked curiously.
"It's very simple, because one of his most powerful chess pieces was pulled out."
