After a reply from the other end, the communication ended.

The old man reached out to pick up the wine glass at hand, swirled the liquid in the glass a few times, brought it to his lips, and drank it down in one gulp.

Putting down the empty cup, he yelled towards the door.

After a while, the housekeeper came in.

He asked lightly: "Has there been any movement from those people these two days?"

The steward knew who he was asking, and said, "No, since the last attempt to sneak into our manor failed, he has been squatting nearby. However, since last night, people have been withdrawn one after another."

"It suddenly became interesting."

As soon as the old man finished speaking, hurried footsteps sounded outside.

"My lord, there is an emergency!"

The butler looked at the people who came in, and consciously stepped aside.

The Duke of Ston spit out a word calmly: "Say."

The visitor immediately reported: "Xin Sheng from the Dragon Kingdom suddenly appeared at the embassy. I don't know when he came. It seems that...he has already met King George. Just this morning, he brought George The king's search warrant entered the base of the medical competition, saying it was to investigate clues about Qin Shu's disappearance."

A strange color flashed in Duke Ston's blue eyes, "Oh? This General Xin is really a good father."

The housekeeper said casually: "Even if he turned the base upside down, he still couldn't find where his daughter was."

Duke Ston snorted lightly, and said leisurely: "I'm afraid his purpose of this trip is not just to find someone...Did he only ask King George for a search warrant?"

"They met in secret, so I don't know what they talked about. By the way...King George suddenly mentioned at the meeting today that the Dragon Kingdom proposed that the Alliance Army besiege the X Auction House."

"..."

The room fell into a brief silence. After a long while, Duke Ston said in a deep voice, "Xin Cheng...this is causing me trouble."

He looked at the figure in front of him, ordered a few words, waved and said, "Go."

The other party was about to leave when it suddenly occurred to him that there was still one piece of news that had not been reported.

"By the way, Lord Duke, Xin You has appeared. When Xin Sheng searched the competition base, Xin You was also there."

Duke Ston seemed to be taken aback, then shook his head with a smile, and said with emotion: "Camelin... I really didn't wrong you!"

But now that girl is getting her due.

Those who dare to betray him must have the consciousness that life would be worse than death!

After the people left, Duke Ston looked at the butler who was still in the room, and ordered, "Have someone check the base."

The butler immediately understood his intentions, "Master Duke, do you think Xin Sheng and the others are looking for someone?"

"That's impossible to say."

......

At this moment, inside the embassy.

He Haitao prepared rich food to reward everyone.

Xin Sheng patted him on the shoulder and said in a low voice, "Old He, it's not time for a celebration banquet now."

Being patted on the shoulder by him, He Haitao couldn't help feeling a little panicked. He explained with a sneer: "It's not that everyone is tired and hungry after a hard day. I just want everyone to have a good meal and go back to rest."

As he spoke, he pointed in a certain direction, "Look, I'm really hungry."

Xin Sheng looked over with disapproval, and saw Xin You sitting at the big round table at a glance. Chopsticks were flying on the table, chewing quickly in his mouth, and he was devouring it like a hungry ghost reincarnated.
