Travel through the city of orcs

"What do you think is the ultimate goal of the person who watched me?" Cheng Chi took a sip of hot tea and asked Claude who had turned into a human and sat at the other end of the sofa.

Claude was silent for a while, looking at the firewood burning in the fireplace, "I...I'm not sure, but I don't think the matter will end here."

"Can I ask you a question? It's about Lance's past, the rumor about someone seeing him in Rodan City. Of course, if you don't want to mention it, you can refuse." Cheng Chi thought for a while I want to ask another question.

Claude looked up at Cheng Chi's soft side face, pursed his lips and nodded.

Cheng Chi, who got Claude's consent, paused for a moment, and asked, "Do you know what Lance went through in the main city?"

Although he was mentally prepared, Claude, who followed Cheng Chi's question and opened up his memories, still had a trace of pain and confusion in his eyes when he remembered the scene he saw.

Cheng Chi was not in a hurry with Claude, he just sat quietly and stirred the water in the glass with a spoon, and suddenly the whole room was only the crackling sound of the firewood burning, except for the occasional sound of the long spoon hitting the wall of the glass. There was a crackling sound.

"At that time, I heard that Lance had appeared in the main city, so I went there to look for him, and I really found him. It's not the same, and that's when I found out he was already with a...a noble young man. I begged him to come back with me, but he refused, saying life in Topa wasn't what he wanted, and he wouldn't Come back here again. He asked to terminate the contract with me. I was very angry at the time, I refused, and left like that. After that, I never saw Lance again, and after that, you appeared... "Claude's voice is still so deep and mellow, but Cheng Chi can hear the heartache contained in that voice, it is not so much that Claude is answering his own question, it is better to say that he is telling the part buried in his heart. Deepest thoughts.

"So, do you think Lance is still alive?" Cheng Chi asked this question that had an obvious answer but had to be asked.

Claude woke up from the memory, his expression became calm again, and he said the words that he had thought about thousands of times in his heart but never said, "Lance is dead."

"Why are you so sure?" Although Cheng Chi felt that Lance had already gone to heaven nine out of ten, he had some doubts about the effectiveness of that belief.

Claude glanced at Cheng Chi and replied, "Do you remember that letter? I told you that it cannot be taken down unless both parties agree or the owner dies."

Cheng Chi shook his head, "I don't quite understand this. It's just an accessory, isn't it? Why can it have such great power? Have you really tried to take it off?"

"It's not so much the belief that the power is the power, but the power is the contract that Lance and I signed together. It is a powerful power. I don't understand the specifics, but if you don't believe it, next time When you see Al for the first time, you can see if his trust is really irresistible," Crowder said.

Cheng Chi nodded half-understood. Claude was so sure that he didn't bother with this issue anymore. After summarizing what Claude said just now, Cheng Chi made a summary in his mind, then raised his head and looked at the situation. To Claude, "Let me tell you my guess, listen to it, can you?"

"Of course." Claude nodded.

"Assuming that the noble young man knew about Lance's disappearance, then obviously he didn't know how he knew about my existence, so he would send someone to check. But as for why he sent someone to monitor me, perhaps, I can guess that Lance knows some ulterior secrets about that noble young man? Maybe it was the noble young man who killed Lance, and my appearance made him panic? Then if this is the case, maybe his next move is— —" Cheng Chi's face became serious, "Kill me."

"No, I won't allow this to happen." Claude said in a deep voice.

"Isn't it your duty to take this responsibility?" Cheng Chi wanted to squeeze Claude for no reason, "I have suffered from Dylans."

Unexpectedly, Claude, who didn't expect Cheng Chi to say that, was stunned for a moment, and pursed his lips, "These have nothing to do with you, you shouldn't be burdened with them, I'm going to find Warren and tell him you're not Lance."

"Warren? Who?" Cheng Chi asked subconsciously when he heard the name, and then responded, "That noble young man? You know his name."

Claude nodded, and then, as if he had made up his mind, he raised his head and looked at Cheng Chi, "He is my younger brother."

"Huh?" Cheng Chi thought he was hallucinating.

"Warren, Warren is my younger brother," after he said that, Claude felt that the next words became easier to say, "Although we are children of different Daddy, we have the same father— — Aubrey."

Cheng Chi, who didn't expect to hear such a statement that modern times are the secrets of the supreme leader, simply didn't know how to react.

My partner got mixed up with my younger brother, and later this younger brother might have killed that unlucky Lance. Could this matter be more bloody? !

Cheng Chi leaned his head back on the sofa, covered his eyes with his hands, and moaned, "My God, this is too messy."

"I'll go to Warren tomorrow and have a good talk with him." Claude said seriously.

"Of course not." Cheng Chi objected without thinking.

"Why?" Claude didn't understand why Cheng Chi objected.

"Are you sure the person who came to watch me was sent by Warren? Are you sure it was Warren who killed Lance? Even if it was, how do you tell Warren? Lance is dead, and this person is not Lance , stop trying so hard? Do you think Warren can believe my face similar to Lance's?" Cheng Chi's words made Claude unable to answer his rhetorical question, and in Claude's eyes Frustrated look surfaced.

At this time, Cheng Chi felt exactly that Claude was just a young man who grew up and lived in an ordinary town and had never experienced any intrigue.

Although life made him precocious, there was really nothing in this simple town that could make Claude so much aware of the unpredictability of people's hearts, except that his status was a bit more bitter.Even Cheng Chi, who has an ordinary family background but has experienced the double baptism of Internet information explosion and office culture, can throw Claude out of ten streets in terms of playfulness.

Cheng Chi got up and added some hot water to Claude's cup, and said in a warm voice, "I don't understand anything now, it's better to be still than to move, let's see how things will develop in the future. The other party is in the dark and we are in the light. It is not advisable."

Claude hummed and said nothing.

Cheng Chi, who had a vague understanding of the current situation, stood up, "It's too late, I'll go to bed first, and you should go to bed early too. Don't worry too much, although the road ahead is unclear, let's calm down before we come Come and wait, when we come, we will face it calmly, it’s no big deal.”

Claude also stood up, "Good night."

Cheng Chi nodded, "Good night."

After watching Cheng Chi go upstairs, Claude turned into a beast again, lying on the mattress Cheng Chi had prepared for him, with clear eyes.

"Dad, how long do we have to wait?" Percy asked his father again. The fact that Lance was not dead was like a tarsus maggot to Percy, which disturbed him day and night. He couldn't afford to lose if Si came to Ludan City again and dealt a devastating blow to himself.

Felix looked at Percy, who was clearly agitated, and sighed in his heart that the child he was so proud of was still too young. He walked up and took Percy to a chair and sat down, "My child, please trust your father , your father will give you a satisfactory result, you have to learn to be patient and wait."

Percy frowned and unconsciously fiddled with a golden spoon in his hand, then raised his head and looked at his father, "Is the orc you chose absolutely reliable?"

"Of course," a smug smile appeared on Felix's face when he heard Percy's question, "That's a group of bastards, robbers, and villains. As long as they have enough money, they dare to kill everyone in the world." Anyone," said Felix, his expression became subtle, "including that one."

Hearing the chill in Felix's words, Percy felt a chill in his heart for no reason.

Felix didn't seem to notice, he put his hands on his son's shoulders, and whispered in his ear, "His health is getting worse, you have to be prepared, by the way, call Stop being ridiculous, Warren!" Felix was obviously dissatisfied with the last sentence.

Percy pursed his lips and nodded.

In the middle of the night, in another luxurious mansion in Rodan City, a handsome young man in a brocade suit with white embroidered gold thread pattern was listening to the report of an orc with a tightly covered face, although His demeanor was tired and lazy, but it was hard to hide the man's luxurious air.

After a long while, he flicked his long black and white tail lazily, and sneered, "Old Felix is ​​getting more and more incapable of doing things now. This is really embarrassing to the nobleman."

The orc just lowered his head and didn't speak.

The man thought for a while, then stretched out his finger and pointed at the table, "Don't act rashly, look at his next move, if necessary, we can help, but don't let Felix foul too much and end it too early Gaming is a boring thing."

"Yes, master." The man hummed back.

The man wanted to say something, but a gentle voice came from outside the door, "Arthur, are you inside?"

The expression of the man who heard the voice softened immediately. He made a movement, and the orc saluted and left the room without a sound.

As soon as the orc walked away, the back door was opened. A young man with a picturesque look poked his head out from the door, and saw the noble man sitting on the seat with a smile on his face. With a big smile, "Arthur, you are here, why are you ignoring me?"

Arthur got up and walked to the boy and pulled him in, "I just took a nap, what's the matter?"

Under the signal of his eyes, the servant standing outside the door stepped forward and closed the door.
