Tang Siwen was dazed for a while, and finally understood that Qin Yue's perfunctory attitude just now, that indifference to the rumors, was just testing himself.And he was careless, and deliberately mentioned his origin with the Phantom Wing Clan.

For Qin Yue, under normal circumstances, even if he was a little curious, he wouldn't want to get to the bottom of such a rumor.The only possibility is that he already knows the secret he tried his best to hide.

Tang Siwen screamed in his heart, hid back to the system interface, took a few deep breaths, and after confirming that his voice was not unusual, he switched back to the game, with a bit of surprise: "This? You will let them go to the volcano, The ring that uses the summoning technique was passed back, it must be because of an emergency!"

Qin Yue didn't speak.

Tang Siwen felt chills in his heart, knowing that he definitely couldn't hide it.

But what can he say?

I'm sorry, but I know all the things you've tried so hard to keep from me.Although I am not in love with you now, but because of your pain, you can confess to me, and you can transfer all the pain to me, anyway, I won't be in pain.

——Such "understanding" and "sympathy" are tantamount to trampling on Qin Yue's mind.It's better to pretend not to know, at least leave some leeway.

Thinking of this, Tang Siwen bit the bullet, forced a smile and said, "Hey, didn't you praise me and say I'm smart before? Why, I'm so smart, you still don't seem to believe it."

Qin Yue still didn't speak, but looked at Lawrence and Cyrus from a distance under the setting sun, with a sad smile on his face.

Tang Siwen didn't dare to speak anymore.He felt that no matter what he said, he was making up for Qin Yue.

It took a full 2 ​​minutes before Qin Yue said: "That rumor is really strange, it's worth investigating." His voice has returned to his usual calmness, even a little more restrained than usual.

Tang Siwen knew that this meant that Qin Yue already wanted to avoid that topic.

He followed Qin Yue's words and pretended to be nonchalant: "Well, I always feel that there are other intentions behind it."

At this time, Lawrence had already walked over with Cyrus.

Qin Yue took a step forward and asked, "Your Highness, what do you plan to do with these 'bandits'?"

Lawrence thought for a while and said, "This matter must be handled in a low-key manner. If the citizens know, Black Flag has sneaked into the territory disguised as a bandit, and even tried to kidnap the crown prince's... cough, trying to kidnap important envoys." , the crowd will definitely be excited. The border that has finally calmed down a bit, will start another war."

Qin Yue agreed: "Well, this is more appropriate. I don't think Black Flag has the strength to make this matter a big deal at the moment. Why don't we just arrest this group of people, including the leader, in the name of interrogating bandits in Lawa City? Take the little soldiers and lock them up first."

Lawrence nodded and said, "Okay. I'll have them all taken to a prison on the outskirts of the city later. But..." He showed a slightly embarrassed look on his face, and then said: "Send guards at the city hall Before coming to meet them, I will let the adjutant guard them here."

Hearing this, Cyrus, who hadn't interrupted the conversation, suddenly raised his hand, looking eager to try: "Lorence! Do you need someone to guard this group of people? I, I can help!"

Lawrence's blue eyes were full of tenderness: "You want to help? How can I help?"

Cyrus smiled and blew his whistle, and the group of mountain eagles circling in the sky slowly descended, surrounding the remnants of the defeated soldiers on the ground.If anyone poked his head up, Shanying would swing his claws over and beat him into submission.

Tang Siwen was amazed when he saw it, while Lawrence stroked Cyrus' blond hair with a smile on his face, and said, "That's right, summoning is so useful." Cyrus blushed with excitement, not hiding his pride and pride.

"Your Highness Lawrence really really loves this man." Tang Siwen said in his heart.

And Qin Yue, as if he didn't see these two people, directly said to Ah Hao who ran over: "Let's go, let's go back to the hotel."

A Howl looked at Lawrence with a blank expression on his face: "Wait, A Yue, is this the employer? Is our mission completed? Can I go and get the 5000 Lital? By the way, I will stay there tonight." A hotel? If you want to stay here, should you go and get the reward first? Although the food in the hotel is really delicious, the room price is really expensive..."

Just like that, while Ah Hao was nagging, Qin Yue took the soup pot and walked back to the hotel.

Along the way, even though Qin Yue didn't speak, Tang Siwen didn't feel embarrassed under Ah Hao's loud voice.

After returning to the room, Qin Yue was still silent.He quietly took out the soup pot, carefully wiped off the ash on it, then put the pot on the bedside cabinet, and said softly: "Take a break."

Tang Siwen wanted to ask, what about you, would you rest, but he couldn't ask.He could only remain silent, watching Qin Yue turn off the lights and sit where he couldn't see.

In the next few days, Qin Yue and Tang Siwen would go to the prison on the outskirts of the city during the day, trying to get some clues from the black flag soldiers as soon as possible.

However, the interrogation did not go well.

On this day, Qin Yue brought a soup pot, and as soon as he walked into the reception room, he saw Laurence stepping in with a cold face, his eyes were frosty.

"How?" Qin Yue asked.

Lawrence shook his head and said, "The mouth is tight. They have already used whipping, and they still killed him. I am just a bandit. As for why you are chasing Cyrus, just don't say anything."

Qin Yue frowned, and said: "It seems that they are well-trained. It's the third day, and they can still hold on."

When Tang Siwen heard this, his heart moved, and he asked, "Have they eaten in the past three days?"

Lawrence was a little surprised, but he still answered patiently: "I gave you water, and a piece of dry bread every day."

Tang Siwen said to Qin Yue: "Would you like... Try to give them an extra meal?"

Qin Yue was a little puzzled: "An extra meal?"

Tang Siwen chuckled: "Yes. How about just eating roast chicken?"

10 minutes later.

Carrying a pot of roast chicken, Qin Yue approached the room where the "bandit leader" was imprisoned.

This "leader" looked only 24 or [-] years old, and he was probably a mid-level officer in the Black Flag Army.No matter how well-trained Rao was, after being starved for three days, when he smelled the aroma of roast chicken, he instinctively slid down his Adam's apple.

Qin Yue pretended not to see it, put the soup pot on the table in front of this man, and said, "Since you are really a bandit, then we don't need to keep you. His Royal Highness Lawrence has already ordered you to finish eating For this last meal, all will be hanged."

The officer's eyebrows were raised, his eyes were a little muddy, but he couldn't see any emotional fluctuations.

Qin Yue said again: "Let's eat. Why, don't bandits still like roast chicken?"

The officer tore off a chicken leg in a daze, stuffed it into his mouth, and started chewing.

Qin Yue looked at the man calmly, and waited for him to finish eating, then pushed the soup pot over a little bit and asked him to tear off another chicken wing.

The strange thing was that this man who had a numb face showed an extremely miserable expression when he finished eating the chicken legs.When he was about to eat chicken wings, tears were streaming down his face, and his hands were shaking from crying.

"I, I'm so sad..." The man's shoulders were trembling.

"Oh?" Qin Yue asked coldly.

"I, I'm so blocked, so uncomfortable. It's so uncomfortable, I...I...I can't, I have to say it..." The man cried while eating the chicken wing.

"What do you think?" Qin Yue's tone was extremely calm.

"I'm not a bandit at all, I am, I am upright, the deputy head of the Third Guard Regiment of the Black Flag Empire. I am going to sneak into Bering according to the order of His Majesty the Emperor." The officer said, wiping away tears.

"Oh, then why did you sneak into Bering? Is it to hunt down Baron Fisher?" Qin Yue asked.

"Yes... yes." The officer wiped his nose and said, "Because someone sent a message to His Majesty the Emperor that the blood of Baron Fisher can be used to make a secret medicine for eternal youth."

"Since you are the head of the security regiment, do you know who sent the letter to your emperor?" Qin Yue continued to ask.

The officer held his chest and said, "Well, I don't know who that person is, but I know that it was a pigeon with bright red feet and snow-white feathers. Ah, that pigeon is quite fat. It's as delicious as chicken...so strange...how can the taste of this grilled chicken be so unique..."

Qin Yue stood up, picked up the pot, turned and left without saying a word.

As soon as he left the room, Lawrence, who was guarding the side, was amazed: "How did you do it? For the past three days, we have tried both soft and hard, and tried various methods, but he didn't say a word!"

There was no joy in Qin Yue's voice, so he just said lightly: "This is all Xiaoguo's spell. By the way, do you have any impression of that pigeon with bright red feet and snow-white feathers?"

Lawrence's eyes darkened: "I have an impression. It is... the great magician of the Bering Empire, a specially trained carrier pigeon, and only he can drive it."

Qin Yue was slightly surprised: "It's him? As a great magician of the Bering Empire, why did he send such news to Heiqi?"

Lawrence said with a gloomy expression, "Well, let's ask slowly after we return to the king's city. I'll wrap things up here today, and we'll set off tomorrow morning."

Qin Yue didn't say anything else, he went to wash and pack the soup pot by himself, and walked to the hotel.

At this time, Tang Siwen had already seen the progress of the new task:

[Main task 4: Investigate the cause of the mysterious rumor]

[Progress level: It is known that the great magician of the Bering Empire has spread mysterious rumors to the Black Flag Empire

The total completion of main task 4: 30%]

He turned off the prompt message, crouched obediently in the box, and waited for Qin Yue to ask questions.

He thought that Qin Yue would at least ask him why this pot of roasted chicken had such a peculiar effect, and why the officer had to speak out after eating the roasted chicken, all defenses collapsed.

In fact, the reason is very simple.Tang Siwen used the [Inheritance] skill to copy the roast chicken.At the same time, all he was desperately thinking about was one thought: Those who eat chicken must tell the truth, otherwise they will suffer a terrible pain.

This is the "inspiration" he got from the conversation between Qin Yue and Lawrence.

Sure enough, this [special effect] worked.People who eat roast chicken will be unable to restrain their desire to tell the truth.

If Qin Yue asked him what method he used, he would tell it exactly, and then took the opportunity to bring the topic to the matter that Qin Yue avoided.

These two days, although Qin Yue still treated him so carefully and gently, he knew that Qin Yue's heartache would only increase.

He didn't want to go on like this anymore.

However, Qin Yue didn't ask anything.

Until returning to the room, Qin Yue only said: "I'll let Ah Hao pack his luggage."

Tang Siwen finally couldn't bear it anymore, and shouted: "Qin Yue! Wait! I have something to tell you!"
