Wicked documents

Chapter 289 – Decoy

Huo Lian thinks this is a big embarrassment, especially for someone like Wei Yunfei. In Huo Lian's impression, he has never seen anyone who cares more about power than this Young Master Wei. Playing the role of "hero behind the scenes" is just for the sake of achieving success in the future. This kind of endurance and perseverance is really beyond the reach of ordinary people.However, in this battle of Yuemian Island, Wei Yunfei can only serve as a deputy after all. According to common sense, all his actions need to be approved by the commander-in-chief Bai Xinyue. Lian material thinks that his heart will probably not be too happy.

"I didn't tell Chairman Bai about my invitation to you." However, Wei Yunfei gave such an answer with a calm expression, even taking it for granted.

Huo Lian froze for a moment.What does this mean? Does Wei Yunfei not intend to maintain his good image?At this time, it is too early to start to be domineering and not to take your boss seriously.In any case, the word "agent" has not been removed from his head.

Wei Yunfei glanced around, as if observing whether the partition wall had ears.Of course, the possibility of being overheard in this wilderness is infinitely close to zero.But he still lowered his voice to make sure that no third person would hear, "We suspect that Chairman Bai is the manipulator behind the seven nations' involvement in this war."

"You guys?" Don't care if Huo Lian's focus is a bit off, but he just asked this question based on intuition.

Wei Yunfei frowned, and he began to wonder if the other party was trying to test him on purpose after thinking too much.There wasn't much time for Wei Yunfei to delay, after all, Huo Lian hadn't decided whether to go or not at this time, and if he hesitated for a while, the possibility of the other party's rejection would undoubtedly be greater.

So Wei Yunfei had no choice but to say, "Chairman Zhuang Jin and I, as well as some senior officials of the Demon Committee, we discussed it. But there is no evidence yet. Alas, we all hope that we are wrong."

Hearing Zhuang Jin's name here, how should I put it, it's not surprising to say that it was a surprise.Huolian did not express any opinion.

However, Wei Yunfei put on a regretful expression at this time, which was just right when coupled with his sigh just now. "For a long time in the past, Chairman Bai hardly participated in the specific affairs of the Demon Committee, probably because he didn't like it. But this year, he was uncharacteristically involved, and his attitude was very strong. We don't know what it is It made Chairman Bai change, but many of his actions have indeed brought a lot of trouble to the normal operation of the Demon Committee."

Huo Lian really wanted to reply to the other party - "Is it really okay for you to speak ill of Bai Xinyue in front of me like this?" But for some reason, Huo Lian didn't really say it.

In fact, Huo Lian's attention was on Wei Yunfei's hint.It doesn't have much to do with the level of Wei Yunfei's hinting method, but it just fits the suspicion that already existed in Huo Lian's heart——

Do not break or stand.

Reminiscent of the four words that Bai Xinyue said personally, the current tragic situation of the Seven Kingdoms participating in the war may be really directed by him.Think back, when you were in Linghuang Mountain, wasn't it because of his inducement that you got involved with the unlucky country A?It's just that the three-party melee that time only happened in a small area, so it didn't attract more attention.

Because Huo Lian didn't respond for a long time, Wei Yunfei was unavoidably uneasy. He felt that the silent Huo Lian was far more difficult to deal with than the chattering Huo Lian. Human-like, maybe it can only be described as not angry and majestic.

After a silent stalemate for a while, Wei Yunfei could only bite the bullet and continue, "Anyway, this matter still needs to be confirmed."

"How to prove it?" Huo Lian asked back, "Go to the meeting of all members of the Demon Committee you mentioned?"

Excluding the ironic part of Huo Lian's tone, Wei Yunfei was delighted to find that Huo Lian finally became interested in this matter, which is right, it has something to do with Bai Xinyue, and Huo Lian will not be indifferent anyway.Wei Yunfei not only nodded, but also decided to take another dose of strong medicine, "If Mr. Huo Lian is willing to go, I still have a reward for you here."

This is the biggest surprise today. After thinking about Wei Yunfei's words several times, Huo Lian finally figured out what it meant, but he still didn't believe that good things like "bribery" would happen to him .So he replied dryly, "I don't have anything I want."

"No, there must be. This reward must be what Mr. Huo Lian wants." Wei Yunfei said with incomparable certainty, and the enthusiastic smile from before answered his face again, probably because he once again controlled the rhythm of the conversation , which made him greatly relieved.

Facing Huo Lian's confusion, Wei Yunfei said slowly, "If Mr. Huo Lian doesn't believe it, I can actually pay you the 'remuneration' in advance now."

Alarm bells rang in Huo Lian's heart - the remuneration paid in advance is not remuneration, more precisely, it should be bait.Wei Yunfei must have calculated it correctly at the beginning, as long as he opened his mouth, he would be tempered by fire afterwards.

"Didn't I say that I will only be paid if I am willing to go?" Although it was not so straightforward, Huo Lian still clearly expressed his rejection.There is no way, the deliberation shown by Wei Yunfei is really scary.Even if Huo Lian himself has already developed some interest in the so-called general meeting of the Demon Committee, he can still find a way to participate in a more concealed way.

"I was just joking just now." Wei Yunfei didn't seem to feel the slightest pain in face-slapping. As long as he can achieve his goal and overthrow his own rhetoric, he is really familiar with this kind of thing. "This 'remuneration' is closely related to Mr. Huo Lian, so how can I keep it private?"

So Huo Lian knew that no matter what Wei Yunfei had to say next, he had to listen to it, and he had to listen to it if he didn't.He can't cover his ears and act stupid, right?To be honest, Huo Lian really couldn't do such a childish behavior.

"It's about Mr. Huo Lian's contract." At the end of Wei Yunfei's sentence, his tone rose slightly, bringing out a sense of mystery.

Should it be surprising?Strangely, no.Huo Lian would not forget that the first time he joined the Demon Committee was because of the contract. Perhaps the Demon Committee and the contract have been deeply linked, and formed a team to trouble him.

There was no accident, but curiosity was inevitable. Wei Yunfei's not-so-long-not-short sentence seemed to give birth to a hook, hooking a heart tempered by fire up and down.But fortunately, after such a period of experience, even though there was a questioning look in his eyes, he still acted like an order, not a request.

"Mr. Huo Lian, actually signed a contract." It's not that Wei Yunfei suddenly changed his mind and stopped being a secret, but that no matter how many foreshadowings are laid on this matter, the effect will be better than opening his mouth.

The top of Huo Lian's head seemed to have exploded like a thunderbolt, and the rumble kept blasting him to the core.The following sentence was completely squeezed out of his throat, without any emotion, just because he had to say something under this situation, so he said, "Not only did he sign the contract, but he also signed it with Bai Xinyue."

Wei Yunfei was startled, showing a little bit of surprise, as if asking "how do you know".Immediately, he nodded solemnly at the other party.

If it is possible, Huo Lian really wants to take back what he said just now, but he just said it casually, and this can actually become a prophecy?However, let alone him, the water splashed by what he said would not be able to do it even if it was replaced by the extremely powerful monster emperor Xi Ran.The corner of his mouth twitched, and Huo Lian continued to choke out, "There is no sign of signing a contract left on my body."

The blood mark on Miss Fourth's body, and the eyes shared by Ludia and Zhuang Jin, using these two pairs as a reference, no matter which of the nine contracts, there should be certain traces left after signing.Thinking of this, Huo Lian felt a little regretful that he didn't take a closer look at the stack of letters that he took out from the secret archives. Since it was written by the high priest himself, it should be the most authoritative "writing" about the monster contract.

"Since Meixi has been the head of the archives department of the Demon Council, she has personally recorded every contract signed with a monster, and these materials are stored in the archives of the Demon Council headquarters." Wei Yunfei suddenly said This is almost a well-known fact.

Huo Lian knew that this was just the beginning, so he didn't bother to rush, but just waited patiently.

Sure enough, Wei Yunfei paused for a moment before continuing, "It is said that the first document of these contracts is about Mr. Huo Lian...oh, no, it's about Emperor Xiran."

Huo Lian has always been extremely disgusted by others who confuse him with Xi Ran, but this time he didn't refute anything.Perhaps it was because he knew that there was no point in arguing with Wei Yunfei; or maybe...he no longer had the resistance he had at the beginning.

Huo Lian only asked, "Have you read this document?"

"It's all said to be 'allegedly', where can I go to see that thing?" Wei Yunfei spread his hands and blinked innocently. "How about Mr. Huo Lian, the things should be stored in the Demon Committee. Is this reason enough for you to make this trip?"

Huo Lian's guess before is really not bad at all. The so-called reward is not only a bait, but also a hearsay bait.Choose to ignore?To be honest, Huo Lian really couldn't do it.Everyone is born with a fatal spot, and Wei Yunfei's move is undoubtedly hitting the spot.

In fact, Huo Lian didn't think that he would be used by Wei Yunfei and the people behind him.Taking the contract information mentioned just now as an example, Wei Yunfei and others will definitely not be satisfied with the level of "allegedly". Grasping this clue, they should spare no effort to dig deeper.Why not?Of course not because they don't want to, but because... they can't.Huo Lian thought of the stone gate he passed through before entering the secret archive. It was a passage that could only be opened by the blood of monsters, and it was even very possible that only his blood could open it.Now that Weixi has already set up such an institution, he is naturally not afraid to set up a few more of the same.So for the things stored inside, Wei Yunfei and others were afraid that they could only look at the door and sigh.

Using fire to open the door is actually the same idea as asking him to break the enchantment on Moon Sleeping Island this time.

In the end, Huolian still boarded Wei Yunfei's boat, a thief's boat in the standard sense.

However, if a pirate ship is a thief ship, the problem is actually not that big.On the one hand, Huo Lian also understands that both public and private trips seem inevitable.On the other hand, Huolian refers to the raging war on the way, and thinks that it is not bad to hand over the heavy responsibility of crossing the line of fire to Wei Yunfei. If there are any monster hunters who use the power of blood bottles, they will also be included. Leave it to Wei Yunfei to deal with, and he can easily hide away.

After the ship left Yuemian Island and sailed for nearly half an hour, Huo Lian suddenly felt that something was wrong. Not to mention those monster hunters who had been drugged, he didn't even see many warships fighting.Compared with before, the calm sea is like a different space.

Most of the warships of the Seven Kingdoms withdrew, and a lot of gaps were cleared in the originally impenetrable sea, which was enough for the fleet to maintain a sufficient safe distance from each other, thus minimizing friction.In addition, looking at the shrinking state of the fleet formation, it seems that no party intends to deliberately provoke disputes.

Huo Lian first stayed in the cabin to watch the changes in the sea, but later he was too unbelievable, so he ran to the deck at the risk of being hit by stray bullets, to see clearly.

However, he still didn't find any signs of fighting.The yacht he was on sailed leisurely across the sea, and the route inevitably shuttled between the Seven Kingdoms Fleet, but the muzzles of these warships seemed to suddenly misfire, and they turned a blind eye.

"The war has ceased." Following the voice, Fourth Miss also walked over lightly, leaning against the railing.

It is not difficult to deduce this conclusion from the scene in front of him, but Huo Lian is still very puzzled. After all, he has personally seen the posture of these fleets in full battle. Not so fast either.

With the original temperament of the fourth lady, she would hardly explain anything to others, but the person she was facing at the moment had a different identity. Obviously, he was a distinguished guest invited by Wei Yunfei, and in secret, he was a newly selected by her organization. Master, therefore Fourth Miss should be more patient no matter what. "In this era, war is only a means to achieve the ultimate goal. It is very difficult for one country's army to completely wipe out the other country's army."

This seems to be the truth. In this era, it seems that there are really no countries that will break out in a full-scale war and get out of control.Everything seems to be under the constraints of reason.Or in the words of the fourth lady, war is only for the purpose, as long as this can be achieved, the outcome of the war is not that important.

"But, has the goal of the Seven Kingdoms been achieved?" Huo Lian still expressed deep doubts about this.

Miss Si didn't waste her words to explain, but handed the tablet computer in her hand to the other party, the things on it should be more convincing.
