Little hero

"Hey, my friend!"

The stooped "little old man" let out a laugh, and said with a low voice, "Let me see who this is? Wearing a military uniform? You are so majestic!"

The "little old man" came over, grabbed Zilan's hand without saying a word, bowed his head slightly and kissed it: "You—— are the most handsome female officers I have ever seen."

Zi Lan was slightly surprised, because the hand that held her was a soft, childish hand with soft knuckles and smooth skin, it was by no means an old hand.

Edward frowned and looked at him with some doubts: "You are?"

The "little old man" still maintains the posture of kissing hands, but he raised his face slightly, it was the face of a young boy——

"You are--"

"Joe." He stood up, and Zilan exclaimed softly. When Joe stood up, he was about the same height as her, but he couldn't tell from the way he was pretending to be a little old man.Joe took off his fake beard, gave Edward a gift from Gean, and then said: "I'm Joe, I live in the fifteenth block, and I met you once."

Edward remembered that this was the kid Edgar had come to the Congressional Bureau to look for when he was on Fifteenth Street.Edward didn't like the atmosphere of Fifteenth Street, but he wouldn't be rude to a man who helped him.

"I thank you again for your help to the Okin family," Edward greeted him, "You are our eternal friend of the Okin family."

Qiao waved his hands in embarrassment: "It's okay, I'm only because of Lan, and he saved my life...don't be so polite."

Zilan smiled softly beside him.

Joe and Edward were both a little embarrassed and smiled at each other.

"So, are you the contact person that sir said?" Edward asked him, "We were entrusted by Director Cheykov of the Congressional Bureau and a mysterious 'Mr. Someone named 'PIGEON'."

"Yes, that's exactly why I'm waiting here," Joe smiled at him, turning sideways to get out of the way leading to the castle behind him, "but I'm not, the real pigeon is waiting inside the castle."

"So that's how it is," Edward nodded, "Then I ask you to help lead the way."

"Okay, but please don't be surprised, Your Highness, because that is a person you are very familiar with." Qiao smiled mysteriously.

The castle is made of stone. The building 200 years ago looks thicker and more solid than the new wood and cement building today.There was a damp musty smell inside, and the moisture in the air was no less than outside.

The tower of the castle is a spiral staircase, which is also a stone step. The wall of the spiral passage has a recessed square pit, which is where the candles are placed.Because the candlelight is weak, it cannot reach all places in the rotating structure, and there are not so many candles here, so there is a gloomy atmosphere inside.

Edward and Zilan walked side by side, with Joe leading the way. It took a while to get to the top, and further inside, there was an attic. According to Joe, the mysterious Mr. Pigeon was waiting for their arrival there.

"Your Highness, don't be angry, he really wants to go down to greet you, but we are running out of time and cannot tolerate too much consumption—there is a panoramic map of Jidu in the attic above, which was recorded by Mr. From key buildings to small underground waterways, there are all detailed records, and it would be perfect to study our future route here. So I still want to invite the two of you to come up, and we will study together."

Edward expressed his understanding.

On the top of the tower, there is a small door on the floor below the top, which is a convenient passage for the guards to enter and exit quickly.Joe took the two of them in from here, and then led to the room on the other side of the castle.

These places are basically connected, and there are very few rooms that exist alone and are completely locked, mainly for security and escape.

Edward has seen many such buildings. Before the founding of Xinji Wright and the new emperor, buildings liked to adopt this form. After the founding of the country, modern architecture changed with the passage of time.Now, only this ancient building still looks like this.

The room arrived quickly. The rooms here like to use wooden floors. Walking on them, especially the military boots worn by Edward, will make a "creaking" sound when walking on them.

Ge'an heard such a voice inside, he knew that Edward was coming, but he was out of control now, so he couldn't come out to meet him.

Ge'an was holding a huge map that looked like a wool blanket. The layout of the room was not large, and the map was not opened from the far side, so there was no place to open it at the back.Gean couldn't move it by himself, so he had to stand behind it until Joe ran up and pulled it away for him, and they finally spread the picture completely.

The picture was spread out, and Edward also saw the person holding the picture.

"Gan?"

"It's me, Master Edward." Ge'an hadn't seen him for a long time, and performed the kind of ceremony that a servant of the Aujin family met the master.

"Are you a pigeon?"

"Yes."

"Underground organizer?" Edward raised his eyebrows.

Gean choked for a moment, seeing the increasingly cold expression on Edward's face, he had no choice but to say: "I don't often participate in underground activities, sir is just assigning tasks."

They didn't say a few words, but Ge'an felt a little invisible pressure. Ge'an was not afraid of Edward, but this kind of fear only meant that he could beat him. As Ge'an himself, he was not afraid of Edward.However, if he was given the titles of "Edgar's bodyguard", "the person who likes Edgar", or "the guard who did not protect Edgar", "the traitor of the Aujin family"... Ge'an would now be The last person I want to see is the head of the house, Edward.

Ge An secretly sighed, and said: "This is the best way for me not to cause trouble for my family." ", he grew up in the Okin family.

But this kind of statement that seems to be almost the same will make people even more angry. Edward really trusts him, that is, because of trust, Edward will blame himself-he sees Gean here, no matter Gean’s identity is good Bad or bad, he has a pain of being deceived.

This kind of reality reminded Edward how incompetent he was, he didn't know anything, just like the "scholar" in the School of Biochemistry, his trust would bring unknown risks to his younger brother.

Edward said, "Did you leave him on the fifteenth block and run away? Or escape? Is that what you said 'best way' to keep the family out of trouble? You're the Orgins, But you are the most unqualified one. Edgar has done many things for you, but you ignore him and do your own underground work. Are you playing with him? What do you take his trust for? I really never imagined that they were talking about underground workers and code names, but they were talking about you? Gean, I treat you as a member of our family, but you have concealed so many things."

Edward had some misunderstandings. He regarded the assassination of Linxi and everything about the escape from prison as part of the underground work. He felt that Gean was using them.But Edward still didn't say anything to death. He didn't expel Ge'an, nor punished him as the head of the family. He just felt like an angry brother, feeling that he had been deceived.

Ge'an closed his eyes, the two highnesses of the Aujin family are really good people.

Edward looked indecisive, he didn't have the arrogance and authority of a ruler at all, and he didn't know how to use conspiracy, but he was serious enough, open and aboveboard, and he was neither pedantic nor stubborn.He is enlightened and kind. This kindness is different from the simplicity of a child like Edgar. This is a kind of calmness and tolerance.Even though the young master Aojin, who was full of sorrow, was not calm at all, and treated difficult tasks like an ant on a hot pot, Ge'an knew what kind of person he was.

Not to mention Edgar, Ge'an knows him best.

When Ge'an thinks of these kind people, his own heart will become clear.He rested his right hand on his left shoulder, and then knelt down on one knee, which is an action of Xinzhi Laite that symbolizes submission and loyalty.Ge'an said: "Young master, I will always be loyal to Aojin and Edgar. I will prove my meaning with everything you see later."

"You'd better do what you said." Edward didn't make things difficult for him anymore, he calmed down a little, and sat on the chair next to him and looked at the map: "Okay, now, let's talk about how to deal with you mission. Use this to show your allegiance."

The map unfolded, and above it was the Jidan Sixteenth Street District where the branch came from.

They are now in the southern part of Jidu, the ninth block.

Edward whispered about the situation in Jade Capital to Ge'an. He finally said: "This is the end period. Those villains who broke the law and discipline will be brought to justice, and there is only one end left."

Ge'an understood: "This is something that the Congress Bureau and Mr. have investigated. I heard that this is a case about contraband, and it has been put on hold for many years."

"Yes, the [-]th block is guarded by the army from the school, and the [-]th block is guarded by our Congressional Bureau, so Gean, you should be in charge of—"

"It's Master Edgar." Ge'an bowed his head.

The school guards mentioned by Edward refers to the guards of Jidu University, because the college has many talents, in addition to the school's own guards, some of them are sent by the government for protection.

Now the Congressional Bureau has locked the target in the school and sent a lot of troops to lurk, so the troops who were guarding here will go to the fifteenth block to strengthen the police force.

Ge'an understood what he meant, neither his own case nor Edgar's letter was the most important thing right now, and these would not cause the army to be dispatched.As "PIGEON", Gean's meaning here is to help Mr.

But the words are like this, but from the beginning to the end, the husband only gave him one order.

That is to protect Edgar.
