Rational discussion, who is the stupidest brother [Comprehensive British and American]

"Can't understand?"

Concern appeared on Aum's face, he leaned slightly towards Prince Nereus, and asked with some concern:

"How could it be? Could it be——Uncle Nereus is getting old, and his hearing is not good? Or, recently, his energy is low and his reaction ability is relatively slow?"

The smile on Nereus' face could barely hold.

What kind of nonsense is this little bastard talking about? !

Hard of hearing when you are old?Lack of energy and unresponsiveness?On the surface, it sounds like he cares about people, but in fact, every word is a knife, and every sentence is implying that he should retire for the elderly and should not be meddling in political affairs!

"It's okay, but I slept late yesterday, so don't think too much."

Nereus waved his hand, with a smile on his face, but there was an imperceptible gnashing of teeth in his voice.

"Understand."

Aum smiled delicately, and said narrowly:

"When I'm old, I can't compare with when I was young. I work too hard at night, and it's inevitable that I will..."

Aum didn't finish the sentence, but left a subtle ending, and added a look of "everything a man understands without saying anything", which made Nereus so terrified that he couldn't help twitching Mouth.

Is this nonsense man in front of him really Aum?Could it be Arthur in disguise? !

It's alluding to his promiscuousness at night, which affects his working status during the day, right?right!

"Hehe, the little prince misunderstood."

Nereus lowered the corners of his eyes, the smile on his face really couldn't hold on this time.

"I didn't understand because you suddenly asked such a question without beginning or end, I really..." Nereus spread his hands helplessly, and then continued: "It's not that he's hard of hearing or something that can't even speak human words." I don't understand why."

Nereus grumbled indifferently.

Aum chuckled inwardly.

It seems that Arthur's stupid big man is not completely useless, at least what he said "the male function is the weakness of every man" is still somewhat reasonable, such as Nereus, he is really vague and untrue , It's just a sentence with a special tone and expression, which made you angry?

Prince Nereus is not Arthur's character who loves hard confrontation and does not go around in circles. He has always been scheming, and he does things in a roundabout way. The way to do it is to hide behind Aum, follow the trend, and never take the initiative to come forward.

It is Arthur's credit to be angered by a single sentence today.

"It's okay." Aum pretended not to understand the sarcasm in Nereus's words, followed his voice and brought the topic back to the original point with a smile.

"Since Uncle Nereus doesn't have any inside stories to tell me, I do know something, how about telling Uncle Nereus?"

Prince Nereus' eyelids trembled suddenly.

"Really?"

His voice was very soft, and his eyes were no longer on Aum, but looked aside vainly, as if he hadn't settled down.

"It seems that Uncle Nereus is quite interested?" Orm was still smiling, as if he didn't notice the abnormality of Nereus, "Then let's start from the beginning!"

After Aum made his decision by himself, he really started from the beginning. He first described the case of the disappearance of the murloc in a long speech full of professional criminal investigation vocabulary.

Nereus was dizzy by his professional vocabulary and professional vocabulary. It was not until Aum finished speaking and paused for a long time that he suddenly realized——MD Aum, the little bastard, talked so long that he almost had a headache, and the result was 90 % is all nonsense!

Nereus couldn't help being a little shaken.

The way Aum talked in circles was not like he had seized the evidence or planned to do it directly, as he was worried about when he saw the news of the visiting mission, but it seemed to be... a cliché?

The anxiety in his heart was a little more stable, and it would be much easier to deal with if he guessed Aum's purpose.

"There are seven murlocs missing in a row?"

Nereus frowned tightly, and there was a vague disgust in his eyes that he didn't realize.

"Since you specifically asked me for my opinion on this matter, little prince, I will say it bluntly—since the Great Fall, our Atlantis has been isolated from the land for nearly a thousand years. We are human beings, but it is undeniable that the long time of isolation from each other has caused a huge difference between us and land people. For example, we love nature and have a peaceful temperament, so that there are few crimes in Atlantis, but land people But no.

Opening tourism projects to land, such a serious case occurred in just a few months, no one can deny that this has an inseparable relationship with land people entering Atlantis! "

What Nereus said sounded dignified and plausible.

If Aum didn't know in advance, maybe he would really be fooled into the letter. After all, who is to tell the truth, because he doesn't like land people, it's convenient that he and Nereus used to have a common language, brackets, once.

Aum looked away slightly, changed his sitting posture skillfully, took advantage of the situation and raised his hand to support his chin, blocking the slightly upward curve of the corner of his mouth.

As expected of the former King Nereus, who once hid behind him to achieve the goal of occupying the land, and retreated after failing, the adaptability of King Nereus is really great. He obviously asked questions with deep meaning. Being so lightly and deftly distorted by Nereus is how he should deal with it and come to ask for advice.

I don't know if it's because I've been with Arthur for a long time, and when I suddenly meet an old politician with as many holes in coral as his heart, Aum actually has a long-lost feeling of being aroused to fight!

"Don't jump to conclusions so easily, Prince Nereus."

Aum waved his hands in a leisurely manner, but the words he said quietly changed their titles.

"We all know that you can't just look at the surface of everything..."

Nereus was almost laughed angrily by him, just now he kept calling him "Uncle", and started to educate him as soon as he changed his voice?

"...Just now, I only talked about the superficial situation of the case, and didn't talk about the specific content. How about you, Prince Nereus, listening patiently?"

When Aum said the word "how", the ending suddenly turned upwards, and Nereus involuntarily turned his gaze back to his face, until he met Aum's cold and piercing gaze, and he was suddenly startled.

"It seems that the little prince and his majesty have learned a lot after going to land?" The corners of Nereus' mouth tightened into sharp corners.

The fact that Orm and Arthur traveled to land is not a secret among high-level officials in Atlantis, because although Orm will connect with Vico through video to handle government affairs, there is still an unavoidable situation in the Kingdom Office. He has accumulated a pile of paper documents, waiting to provide the little prince with the opportunity to work crazy overtime.

"I can't tell you my experience, but I have seen and heard a lot."

Aum leaned back leisurely, different from Nereus' gradually anxious attitude, he became more and more relaxed.

"For example, a friend invited me to a rare but interesting auction, and I met there—"

Nereus' heart skipped a beat!

"—Missing, missing, yes, fish, people!"

Nereus suddenly changed color, his toes wavered in the sea water, and his calf suddenly kicked downwards. His whole body broke through the sea water like a bullet shell, and rushed upwards at extreme speed!

However, after swimming less than one meter, a big hand suddenly appeared on his shoulder, firmly pressing him back on the seat.

"What? Is Prince Nereus planning to save someone?"

The old god Aum was sitting there, the smiling expression on his face remained unchanged, as if he hadn't noticed Nereus' attempt to leave.

"Don't worry. The two murlocs at the auction have been rescued. They are safe now. They are just frightened and need some mental comfort."

As he spoke, Aum raised his hand and pressed his palm downward, as if to comfort him.

"I didn't expect—Prince Nereus was so worried about the personal safety of the citizens of Atlantis—"

The sound of the last word is very long, and it has a deep meaning no matter how you listen to it.

Nereus didn't pay attention to what Aum said again, his attention was all attracted by the palm on his shoulder.

Orm sat across from him, unmoving.

Although he is not good at force, the only people in Atlantis who can hold him down with one hand are Orm and... the king!

Nereus chuckled dryly, knowing that no matter whether Aum came here this time because he wanted to make a fool of himself, or if he really wanted to catch him, he had already missed the best chance to escape...

But for a moment of hesitation, he...

"It is my responsibility as the Prince of Atlantis to care about the personal safety of citizens."

For the current plan, we can only try our best to deal with Aum, maybe there is still a chance!After all, Ao Mou didn't arrest him directly when he came, but kept chatting with him in circles. There must be no conclusive evidence in Aum's hands!

"That's right." Aum nodded in agreement, "It's not only your responsibility, but also Arthur's and mine's. As the king and actual administrator of Atlantis, we have the responsibility and the obligation to protect Citizens, bring back citizens in deep danger and bring their perpetrators to justice."

A few words that were as rigid as an ideological education class made cold sweat break out on Nereus' back.

The words like a knife, and the cold expression when he said this to Aum, made Nereus wonder again whether he had obtained some evidence!

"Bring to justice..." Nereus repeated softly, and suddenly asked: "Could it be that this is the reason for Mera's sudden visit?"

Aum couldn't hold back in the end, and laughed directly.

Nereus was dazed for a moment, and then the daze in his eyes was replaced by disgust and fierceness. Fortunately, Orm's laughing back and forth didn't give him time to pay attention to his expression, so he gave him a chance to hide.

"No no no—"

Aum couldn't stop laughing, and while humming intermittently, he said:

"Meera is really on a state visit. You really think too much Prince Nereus. Meera is the Minister of Foreign Affairs. If she is needed to catch criminals, it will seem like Arthur and I Too incompetent?"

Nereus's heart skipped a beat again, and he couldn't control himself and asked:

"You already know who did it?"

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Nereus knew he was going to suffer, he lost his composure seriously!In the eyes of a person like Aum, his gaffe is basically equal to acquiescence!

Sure enough, Orm laughed again.

"Of course. Not only do I know, but you do too, don't you?"

Nereus could not answer the question.

He lost his composure too much just now, no matter what he said now, it would only be sophistry in the eyes of Aum.

"Are you wondering why I'm still sitting here talking nonsense to you if I knew?"

Aum did not intend to let him go, and continued to implement verbal attacks.

"The reason is simple, I'm stalling for time, and I'm waiting for the evidence to arrive!"
