Chapter 24: Assassination
On the second floor of the manor, as soon as the tall man wearing a white cloak entered the door, a slim figure greeted him from behind and hugged him into his arms with all his might.
This unique way of greeting made Viola blush. When the beautiful woman tiptoed to kiss the man on her neck, she had to cover her eyes with her hands, but a gap was revealed at the tip of her fingers. Through the gap, she clearly saw the bright red lips printed on the man's neck.
For a girl who is not very experienced in the world, this scene is really too impactful.
This made her unable to distract her from her eyes and secretly glance at Gu Yun beside her.
Faced with such a erotic picture, Gu Yun not only kept his face from changing his expression, but his eyes showed strong disdain.
Seeing this, Viola was stunned at first, then felt deeply ashamed - she once again realized Gu Yun's willpower was so firm that even though she saw such a scene, she was not shaken at all.
"Hmph, is this the general of the kingdom?"
Gu Yun muttered disdainfully, "If she had a knife in her hand, your general had been easily killed."
As a general of a country, he doesn’t even have this vigilance. No wonder the Northern Kingdom has declined to this point!
Wait, what's the case with a knife?
Viola was stunned. If she remembered correctly, West Germany was here to meet her lover alone?
Why is there a situation of stabbing the knife with a back? What has Gu Yun experienced in the past ten years?
"Although West Germany is indeed not a good person, what you said is too..."
"How can you take it lightly?"
Gu Yun glanced at Viola, "It's normal to be stabbed by a lover. I've seen someone's lover first use a text message on his mobile phone as a trick, and stabbed him with a knife while he was flipping down the text message in the other direction."
The video clip was shown to him by An Ling, and he still remembers the sharp sound of the kettle.
Gu Yun thought the video was very educational at the time - "Even when facing the closest people, you must always be vigilant."
If it were him, in such a situation, there would be at least 120 ways to counterattack.
Although Gu Yun's tone was serious and his eyes were sharp, Viola still felt that he was talking nonsense. Perhaps only the time in Gu Yun's eyes would be filled with people who wanted to assassinate him.
The conversation in the room quickly interrupted Viola's random thoughts.
The one who spoke was West Germany. After some intimate behavior, the two calmed down a lot.
"A lot of things happened in the royal city these two days, and that lord is back."
This understatement immediately aroused Viola's alertness - a woman I met in a tavern said before that the lover of West Germany was disguised by monsters, and his words were so natural that he had already disclosed many secrets of the kingdom to the other party.
The relationship between them should be more than just lovers.
"So, the gods should have already..."
Upon hearing this, the woman revealed a surprise application.
"I can't count on them anymore. The destruction of the gods is a foregone conclusion. The key lies in who will become the next ruler."
West Germany took the opportunity to take over the situation, and the woman sat on his lap and was hugged by him. "But as far as I know, that adult should be more optimistic about the big prince. Will you be implicated?"
"So we have to do it in advance."
A trace of ruthlessness flashed through West Germany's eyes, "With my relationship with the second prince over the years, I have no room for turning back now. Only by killing the eldest prince can I live this game of chess."
"Aren't you afraid that that lord will destroy you in anger?"
Although she said this, the woman smiled, as if she wanted West Germany to let the prince's head be apart tonight.
"She doesn't care who will become the next king. The eldest prince is just a piece that can be thrown away at any time in her hands... What did that adult did after he came back?"
"I can't guess." The woman pretended to be distressed.
"She first invited a mysterious guest in the hall, and then found more than twenty dying people overnight. Guess what? She actually cured all those dying people. Not only that, she also emptied the weapons in the armory the next morning and distributed them to the adventurers in the city."
All signs indicate that she has no concern about the direction of the kingdom, and that she does nothing but acts casually. In other words, as long as the second prince can make up for the position of the chess piece behind the eldest prince, she will not care about the life or death of the eldest prince.
"Instead of waiting for the eldest prince to attack us, it is better to start first, but you may need your help at that time."
"Assassination of the crown prince is not a trivial matter."
The woman thought for a moment, "Once you fail, I will be implicated."
"But the benefits are also obvious. As long as you succeed, the second prince will be alone in the capital from now on, and you and I don't need to look at anyone's face anymore."
In order to convince the woman to join the gang, West Germany instructed her, "What's more, although she is under one person, those big men will not stay in the capital all the time. In the end, it's not the second prince who has the final say."
"It should be your final word, right?"
The woman smiled and said, "This is the purpose of getting close to the Second Prince. Although the eldest prince is arbitrary, he is smart. You may not get much benefit if you cooperate with such a person. The idle second prince is the most suitable candidate for being a puppet."
"Nothing can escape your eyes."
West Germany also did not deny it, "I had high hopes for the three princesses. If a bastard hadn't known whereabouts, I would have succeeded long ago."
Compared to the second prince who has a very poor reputation in the royal city, the third prince's daughter is the one who is expected to be.
In his opinion, although the Three Princess is not willing to cooperate with them at the moment, as long as it falls into his hands, he has countless ways to make the other party surrender.
"By the way, I heard that the 'bastard' you mentioned was caught by your guy?"
"That guy is just a fool."
When he thought of the other party, Xide felt both angry and funny. When he heard that the other party had repelled his entire knight order with his own strength, he was really shocked by the other party. However, what is funny is that this mysterious master triggered the mechanism that night because he sneaked into the kingdom treasure house and stole, and was poisoned by poison gas.
If it weren't for this, he wouldn't have thought of how to catch the other person for a while.
This kind of self-invested behavior can only be described as a prank.
"But he seems to know a lot, and I will send someone to torture him."
"Leave him to me."
The woman suddenly spoke, "I'm very interested in those who call themselves adventurers recently. You can continue to look for the whereabouts of the Three Princess. As for assassination, I will push you when the time is right."
"Then I'll leave it to you."
West Germany smiled frivolously again, and he suddenly approached the woman in his arms. However, as they made further moves, Gu Yun pushed open the door of the room.
"Don't move, stand against the wall!"
He stopped the two of them with a strong voice, "Show your ID card!"
