Chapter 1196: Plan
After listening to Elder Sonoda's words, I seemed to understand something.
While my treatment and restraint are undecided, any disturbance will affect my position as an elder of the foreign clan, and even affect the dreadnought guild's foothold in Moonlight City.
Think about it, if my previous words were just sensational, and there was no way to confirm the truth until the end, would Elder Prisla use this to say that I was confused from the outside?
Even if the Elven Empress and Elder Sonoda Dance didn't believe it, with the status and prestige of Elder Prisla, inciting the whole people to attack me with public opinion, would I really be able to withstand it?
If I can't bear it, where do I flee to?
Fleeing back to Vickyburg as a collaborator?
Or did he flee to Dasaijaya as a collaborator?
But no matter where you flee, as long as you haven't been rehabilitated, there will definitely be people who say that this person is a collaborator and must stay away, and in the long run, how can I survive in this Zephyr Continent?
On the other hand, if what I said was true, would Elder Prisra secretly contact the high-ranking of Vicky Castle and reveal what I said, saying that I had revealed the secrets of your country.
Although I know that if Elder Prisla does the latter point, my position in Vicky Castle will still not be shaken, but I still don't want to do things that will disappoint Master Dewey, it seems that it is necessary to secretly contact Master Dewey and explain the situation.
In this way, even if the second crisis is completely resolved, the first crisis is still there.
It is understandable that the affairs of the state are slightly exaggerated, but they cannot be faked, but the responsibility for any slight falsehood is extremely heavy.
I am too small to bear such a burden, and I can only hope that Dasai City will make the alliance contract of Castle Vechich public as soon as possible.
Moreover, in the future, whether it is speaking or doing things, you need to think twice and be more cautious.
Thinking about this, I stood up and saluted Elder Sonoda: "Thank you, Elder, for your many words of help in the council. ”
Elder Sonoda Wu waved his hand and said, "Thank you for the long term of peace and stability in Moonlight City, recently the royal family and nobles have risen up, I am afraid that someone wants to subvert His Majesty's regime." ”
"I know a thing or two about this," I said, "Since the recent assassination of Princess Anareta, there have been assassins in ambush around my house from time to time, and if it weren't for the protection of the treehouse, I'm afraid things would have gotten worse." ”
Elder Sonoda Mai sighed and said, "Not only Her Royal Highness, but even several of our royal family direct blood relatives have been assassinated, coerced and intimidated one after another, and just a few days ago, my granddaughter was almost held hostage. ”
After saying that, she sighed again, and her face suddenly aged several years.
"Oh, so you are also suffering from it," I pursed my lips and said dissatisfiedly, "Since everyone is a victim, why does Elder Prisla still fight with me, can't she see the current situation clearly?" ”
"Because you are a foreigner," said Elder Sonoda Mai, "Although those assassins are annoying, they are still elven after all, and in terms of race, Elder Prisla is more extreme than me, and her purpose has always been non-my race, and her heart must be different." ”
"Hearing you say that, I think of something," I said, "The elves are not elves, and Elder Prisla will be hungry for them when they are driven out of the country?" ”
"Don't talk nonsense," said Elder Sonoda Mai, "Even if it's the truth, you can't say what you shouldn't say, unless you can come up with conclusive evidence." ”
"This ...... Isn't speech free? ”
"Hehe" Elder Sonoda Mai chuckled: "There is no freedom in this world, it's just that most of the remarks do not endanger our interests, but once there is a conflict of interest, many people will not hesitate to remove the unstable factors, so as you said before, it is better not to say it again." ”
"Ah, thanks for the reminder," I said.
Elder Sonoda Mai and I then talked about what the elders should and should not do, looked at the magic wall clock, it was already past eight o'clock, said goodbye, and climbed out along the chimney.
Leaving Elder Sonoda's house, I hurried to Wren's house again.
On this trip, I didn't encounter any assassin killers, which really surprised me, maybe this group of people had been suppressed by Old Man Taylor's methods last night, I have to say, the killing magic that can be released in the blink of an eye is really shocking.
Knocking on the door, I looked around, and when no one saw me, I went into the treehouse.
Arriving at the coffee table in the middle of the hall, Wren pushed a few pieces of paper to me and said, "These are the dictations of those three people, and that's all they know." ”
picked up the paper and flipped through it, the content on it was almost the same, only that it was to assassinate the two elf princesses, as for the purpose and the boss behind the scenes, the three of them didn't know.
As for the identities of the three of them, they are all powerful assassin adventurers in other sub-towns of Moonlight City, and they were bought with a lot of money before they did this kind of rebellious thing.
I nodded, picked up the paper, and Wren naturally took out a flint, rubbed it slightly, and sparks rose around, igniting a few pages of tissue paper.
Pinching a corner, I looked at the rising flames and the paper that gradually turned into ashes, and I secretly had a plan in my heart.
Out of Ren's house, I walked slowly towards home, on the way, kept thinking about what I had just planned: the information of the three people recorded on the paper was similar, but there was only one difference, that is, the location where they collected a lot of money, if I was not mistaken, this organization should be extremely wide-ranging, the number of members is definitely a lot, and there is a huge amount of financial backing, otherwise there will be no heavy bribes, if you want to find out the source, you can only follow the vine and find out the clues little by little, but, there are still many conditions for this practice, and I need to sort it out carefully, Only then can we be foolproof.
The conditions for completing the plan are demanding, but that doesn't mean it can't go smoothly.
Lying on the couch and staring at the ceiling, I finally put the plan into practice.
The next morning, before dawn, I got up and hurried to Wren's house.
As an Assassin, Wren once told me that he usually slept only three to four hours a day, so that he could keep his body on the tension at all times, and only before his mission would he sleep soundly to ensure that his physical and mental strength was at his best.
It was past three o'clock in the morning, and according to Wren's schedule, he should have gotten up yet.
Sure enough, I only knocked on the door twice, and it opened.
Inside, Wren and I sat across from each other, drank a cup of tea, and after moistening it, I told him about my plans.
My plan is very clear, send the assassin to build momentum, when the assassin becomes famous, someone will definitely come to visit, give him a lot of money to ask him for help, as long as this favor is to assassinate the princess, the person who promised a lot of money must be a member of the organization, the next thing is to test the cultivation of our people, to quietly follow that person, it is best to find the location of that person's organization, as long as we find the location of the organization, the first step of our plan will be completed.
